91: la problématique

'problem is,

i get hooked too easily
and am too slow to let go
i somehow get blown away
and lose sight of the ground
i stand at the very edge
and continue to

Wait -- [ pause > edit > play ]

problem is:

i wish you would
pull me up
hold me down
take me

On -- [ stop > rewind > edit > play ]

the problem is

i need you
out of my head.

90: F = for lying

Attention all Pilots
cruising along the clouds
soaring through the sky:

Flick open your headlights

Reassess your coordinates

Switch off that autopilot

And hold on to the wheel.

And
don't
let
Go.

No matter what they say,
No matter what they do,
No matter what happens --

Their wonderful twists and turns
will never be enough.

Your sweet flight of fantasy
will not last forever.

So take off the sleep blinding your eyes,

And take off the smiles binding their lies,

and
land

Safe

and

Sound.



Attention all Pilots,
cruising along the clouds
soaring through the sky:
Flick open your headlights.
Switch off that autopilot.
Hold on to the wheel.
No matter what they say,
No matter what they do,
No matter what happens --
Don't.
Let.
Go.
Your sweet flight
Of fantasy
Will not last forever.
Your wonderful twists
And turns
Will never be enough.
You will eventually have to
Steer yourself back into Reality
(You will eventually have to
Come back down to Earth)
Take off the sleep
blinding your eyes.
Take off the smiles
binding those lies;
And
land
Safe
and
Sound.

89: curses

the papers
will not mark themselves

so
in between
black coffee fixes
and coughing spells
and trance-like eyes
at an ungodly hour

in between
scolding myself
in the office,
it's nice when
someone is willing to talk
about
something
everything
and nothing.

even when there's someone.
especially when there's no one.

but alas,

the papers
will not mark themselves.
