this is what I have learned more than anything.
your friends will become your enemies.
your love will change to hate.
your life will turn itself in.
memories will continue to haunt.
jobs will come and go.
family will die off one at a time.
money will only be there when you don't really need it.
new positives will rarely make up for the past pain.
small joys become large problems.
home will lose it's meaning.
forever becomes a phobia.
songs annoy when their supposed to calm.
schools teach you nothing new.
hospitals grow familiar.
things you never used before will only gain importance once gone.
people you never loved the way you should will be buried.
places that were meant to be your home will collapse into the ground.
debts will continue to scrap and tear at the sleeve.
permanent additions will fade away.
calenders will fly by.
people will leave horrible voids.
roads will be paved.
bridges will be burned.
diseases will spread.
cancer will reign supreme.
life will remove the joy from itself.
the sun will rise to greet the pain.
the moon will shine to show your tears.
lyrics will sting a cold reality.
give in now and you miss the show.
stay till the end and you become the epilogue.

Artist block
I have decided that one of the hardest things for me to do is survive on my own.
I seek a soul
I seek a partner
I seek inspiration
Until this is found the recipe will not be complete
The meal will go uneaten
The table will be set
The guests will not arrive
To create, this too is asking so much. When my soul hungers for companionship, it lacks Proper feedback, grounding, imagination, muse, niche.
I can not continue this journey alone for too much longer
The long life that one might lead is far too long to be lead alone.

Factory
ten attempts to get this factory going, all failed, leaving heavy damage in their place
empty floor tiles spread between each machine allowing them room to breath. their hallogen eyes have faded, rarely lighting up. they have shared this space together. I have allowed them to stay. the orginal model still hovers in the back. I keep a picture in the office in case he ever moves out
metalic music echoes from previous days of work. they stare at me with anger, contempt. their practically new, barely any signs of use. I lost every key long agoso I walk down the line to the next model, slightly different, but same designer. the synthetic covering curves over the mechanized insides, I admire his features, contemplating, slowly pull the control panel out and start him up, motion, music, movement, eyes open and flare out, cogs churn, electricity firing
hello, he says, I am eleven.without hisitation, it begins. metal to flesh, element to element, sirens flare, organic combines with computerized, keys turn and assembly begins, my skin is burned by the heat, the other machines, scream their chorus in the background, taunting and mocking. this lasts for minutes alone, it seems like hours
a small light comes onwarning of enternal error, a belt snapes, cutting my face, bolts pop off, steam rises from the middle. this too shall pass I say to myself as his eyes flicker. jolty movements, slowed gears, shut off, assembly has stopped again. the metal is cold to the touch now. I step back and admire his features once more
I am the collector of broken machines. many more to try, many more possibilities. I have only eleven to show
you think that'd be enough

this strange new feeling
the empty space where substances used to reside
weighing more in their absence than when present at the meeting
this aura of possibility adds so much
now, with volume filled
overflow being gathered and anticipated, i worry of floods
overcosumption can not be tolerated, can not be allowed
patience will be practiced, timing will be enforced
can not let myself drain this new reserve, must show restraint
collect a stockpile and build depots for which to return to as needed
supply has potential to double previous possibilites
but demand must remain low
events in the past have shown this to be an uneasy process, this gathering
resistence to this forced structure, wanting to jump to the front of the line
I am the prisoner of my situation, yet I was elected and hold Marshall law
the rope is pulled tight, wound around my torso, knotted to the form
your form, your substance, you
must relearn how to wait, must train myself anew
must try harder than ever before
so many possibilities to ruin this situation
perfect balance must be found
weigh out negatives, prepare for their arrival
hide my stash after taking one last hit
your chemical is difficult to inject at first, but waves of faimiliarity arise after
a junkie for connection
this addiction worsens with every hour
i will practice medicinal treatments and hope for the best
with this dangerous element, your element.
i will break the previous mold
breathe and intake, allow the slowed warmth
enjoy this moment, scratch at the feeling, twinge with relief
with initial happiness comes waves of fear for when the come down begins
prepare, pray, plan an escape
this is why I said no to begin with, this is why I passed it along a long time ago
the fix is so damn good, but the addiction is to much to bare.
to rid myself of intial shock, i will cause the infection personally everytime
inject the poison before the handler can.
resist tolerance

memories on day 497/past writing
you finish the sentence and a guillotine drops
for a few moments, i do not exist
rising from the deep
this force floods my organs
a pause in the universe
echoes to the edge
past where i thought
we would make it
intense surge inside me
i can feel it pour down the walls
as my lungs expand around the tension
crowding my ribs, breaking my spine
as my heart hemorages
veins play to an empty room
all that is possible
all that was promised
now null and void
undead pulse screams as i am thrown
back to the begining
before your campaign began
before the gloves were taken off
before it dragged me still and calm
there has been a slaughter
the blade is fresh and warm
Seven days in and already failed
New Years resolutions tend to be body, career, love, mind and vice related. How many promises have I made to myself that I have not kept? More than I care or have the capacity to remember. I can however attempt to better the way in which i pursue these improvements. So onward the path I shall continue, working towards a better, faster, prettier, more successful, skinnier, happier, more likeable me!
sure
Fuck that
instead i will add to more increasingly crazy life by allowing stranger from all over the planet to view my creations, my thoughts, my dreams, my passions, my loves, my failures, my plans, my humble and not so humble moments, my family, my choices, my hopes, my inspiration, my favorites, my loathed, my fears, my future, me
