Portland Bound (and …Here I Am Now)

Portland Bound

Adventures abound
On the road again
No silence now
Time to say
Everything you think
No stoping now
…I’m Portland bound

…Here I Am Now (Night)
The moon is shining back at me
Across the sky it moves so slowly
I’ve got a song stuck in my head
And a dream in which was said
Head west…
Head west.
Alone I walk this street
Sky lit up by the cities
I’m ready to behave
So excited I’m afraid
Break.
I’m ready to get away from
Everything I’ve come to call home
My mother says let go of the bitterness
And I say
I need a break
Break.
Meditate.
I’m so tired of being lonely
If only you would have shown me
What it’s worth
And where I am going
Well, I don’t know
I’m homesick
But I want a new home
They are getting tired
Ready to push, me
And I could be on the streets
But now, ma, I choose responsibility
I’m so happy it makes me sick
My stomache is so twisted
My head aches
Up late
Can’t sleep
What does it take?
Break.
I’m moving on
Or is it to soon?
I’m making decisions by the full moon
And I am afraid
Am I ready?
I am willing
Feet off the ground
I hit the cieling
And I break.
Break.
Break away
Here I am now
Ready to get into this town
Goodbye wheatfields
And rolling hills
My stomaches realing
I am far from grieving
Maybe just fearing
Goodbye friends I’ll be seein’ you soon
Maybe not but I hope to
Ready to go home and pack
Leave town
What goes around
Come right back around
And I’m not sure I believe in karma
But we’ll see,
We’ll see
If and when I break
Now t’ain’t time to hesitate
Life is in front of me on a plate
Well, I’m hungry
And I am thirsty
I’m not fasting
But I’m ready to break
Need to lay down
Relax
Almost two in the a..
And I’m ready to start the day
Waitin’ for the sun to wake

Weary Eyed, Crazy Mind, Let Liars Lie, Go To Sleep (It’s Not Your Time) 

Close eyes
Lay back
Fall asleep
Repeat these words
Hopefully sleep will catch hold of me
I’ve experienced
All the night has to offer
I’ve slept in late
Woke long after my father goes home from worK
Is it worth it
Or am I just another
Problomatic motherfucker
Who can’t keep his head straight
So full of shit
I can’t take
No
I can’t take this
Gotta stop stayin’ out late
No more time to hesitate
Waiting for the day
Go to sleep
Oh, Raleigh please
It’s for your own good
Relaxe
Close your eyes
Fall asleep
Repeat
Wake
Toss and turn
It’s a big day
Raleigh, relax
Close your eyes
Fall asleep
Please
This is you
And I am me
Begging myself
To try and sleep
Swear I’m not crazy
Sleep deprivation
Too many energy drinks
After some cohesive thoughts
Lost the plot
Need some rest
Used to say I’ll sleep when I’m dead
But how far can you go?
Four hudnred miles from home
Followed only by insomnia
Oh, please
Go to sleep

fly to the sky, forget where and why

Well, as time passs life gts more strange and complicated, while simple and serene at the same time.

Unreal.

I’m still writing, I have quite a bit of interesting thoughts and directions coming out in my moleskin notebook late at night, and hopefully sometime soon I will post them here, ad hopefully soon I will post my e-book of some recent works… I just need to finish editing it. What can I say, I’m lazy.

Godspeed y’all

The moon was shining beightly behind a hill. All the creatures were sleeping. The only sound was that of the ocean washing up on the sand. Then there was a cough. And another. What was this, washing up from the sea? A man? But how could it be? No boats lay route on this shoreline. Sandbars, rocks and reef made it far too dangerous to travel. Yet here was a man, washed up on the shore, coughing and spitting up salt water. He got up and looked around, bewildered. He did not shout for help, he did not seek out life. He just followed the shoreline, as the sun began to rise. A few of the townspeople reported seeing a naked man walking the shoreline early that morning, but none who had followed the sandy footprints before they washed away, was ever seen again. And no one in the town saw the man again. He just dissapeared, like a ghost. None of them ever knew that this mystery man, who became a town legend, wen’t into the world and became the biggest revolutionary of this new millineum.
