Dry Socket

Dry Socket

It hurts
Even though the tooth was pulled
I fulfilled the rest of the result of the sin of omission
Attrition of tragic bad decision making
Precision taking the sniper shot on my marriage
The assassination of a life’s work
The assertion of family desertion
Its dead and I tried to resurrect it through the soulless illusion
Collusion with collision
When you let in what should have its natural conclusion
Its rightful end then
Expect the pain to linger
Not unlike a bee’s stinger that should fall out by itself
Prayer and time brings the injured soul back to health
I hope
I caint mope but as I look back
I know I stacked the deck against
I climbed a fence of doom
Built by my own hollow hands
Perhaps I’ll become a better man

Smoke It Till It Burn

Smoke It Till It Burn

I learned to smoke it down to the tip
Until I dipped back out of the burning water
I can’t find my daughter even though
I know exactly where she is
She is dead center in my heart
She’s the reason why I endure winters
And smart she is
She is the beginning and the end of my sinning
The reason winning is paramount
What I’m all about is her and her dreams
I die trying to bust the seams and lock out
Rock out with my knockout right and left
I run the race for my Dana
I’m on crutches lame at the gate and I’m lurchin’
I’m the walkin’ livin’ breathin’ cross
I am the church and
THE CHRIST is the center
Enter : if you dare
If you care barter your soul
On everything the song is sing
Rings clear and true
I thought you knew who
I am the man with the burnt up hands
With plans to conquer the known universe
