CahuachiDo you believe they're in the stars?
I think someone once held that
This million mile magic can be seen from the sky
Telling celestials of an animal kingdom
Teaching the futures how to kill time
Was it a walking temple?
Was it an air balloon?
Could He Avoid DyingAn alchemist could turn this to gold
use a rosetta stone
An architect could map the lapse I missed
make a go of it
What's missed?
What's needed?
House LanguageAn accent at an unexpected place
A moment that was made with words
Pacing known to just a few
Something so old could not be more clear
This could be it*2
To be honest…
Kowloon Walled CityWave after wave had been repelled/The wall was a symbol when gone/The city in dreams once poked through/crawled at odd angles, as monsters do/Life under faint fluorescent lights/pipes and darkness in long intervals/There's a time limit placed, an expiration date*2/The spring of 1993/A feeling of anything, a peculiar smell, it belonging to nobody/These things were replaced with a park/A feeling of anything a peculiar smell it belonging to nobody/These things were replaced with a park Yeah, I understand why, but I still regret it/I understand why, but I still regret it
Lion Eating Poet In The Stone DenA heartbeat that pulses above and below
A feud of generations played over and over
Repeat this passage to turn it to nothing
These sounds are first stories, then stories are real
I have a dream
Long Gaps And Little GaspsNow it comes to me
The allegory of the cave
To turn the will on a sense of self
but we keep moving forward in a dizzying circle
Not a quickening drain, an upward spiral
A brighter light in a forest at night
Oh!
Meaningless Symbols Acquire Meaning Despite ThemselvesMy life, my dreams,
I lay beside them.
They wrap around me.
Something I worked at for so long happened.
Now when I sleep I smile in small waves.
It's great.
The answer or the climax came.
Middle MissingBe brave/Wake up early/no cars passing when outside/I could see my own breath, everyone's/then driving, front desk, explanation, routine/Be brave/An intangible reward/closure/I should have never looked at the body/It changed everything/It punctuates each memory/I know what they say, but I made a mistake.
People God RiddlesTen years of sleeping
We float like unanchored stars, a moving sky with no pattern.
Where do the hip and directionless go?
Do they dissolve quietly at thirty something or are they caught in a numbers grid, like 9 to 5?
PsalmsI'm a thief of bad process!/Rescind centers!/Carve curved creases out of smooth!/Don't thank a thought... this thought/I don't care for four leaf clovers/I don't care for salt and shoulders/Now I've got new superstitions/Blaming calm for qualms I carry/Singing psalms for wrongs I've buried!
Separate FearsThere's a word for every hope and every triumph
It gets pushed back
You forget to...
Time's a mental distance we place when it gets too hard or painful
Then it turns to separate rooms then separate states then separate thoughts.
No!
Could they pinpoint single moments?
Strange One, Mysterious OneYou send out your mother's coffin to give to the people that killed her
the barracks in lagos, this wonderful story
A line of notes or equations to equal, to foment a tumult
This thing that you went through you... cope through a spectacle
You smoke then laugh
a smile so smug
to say such things
Taking This Mission Is Like Shaking Hands WIth The DevilThe constant filming for your protection is making 24 hour movie stars.
100% stunning looks where anything is constantly achieved.
Everyone is sculpted for this reason.
I couldn't tell. I didn't know. I wasn't sure.
This is why we dress so well,
Why we have such trouble concentrating,
The Five GendersThere are more genders than women and men
There are more genders than five
a body that sits at the heart after heart
trajectory more than dead center
a movement that's too big to fathom
a size that's too stupid to ponder
The Man Behind El BulliThe man behind El Bulli was like anyone else
a small breakdown had brought him recognition
The man behind El Bulli stared blankly at an eternity of quail
It was now or never
It was now or never,
so never again
