i want to know why
i understand backwards
i only live forward
so i keep my eyes northward
it’s not the years in
your life that count
it’s all about the
life in your years now
you will be increased
hard times will bring peace
a good beginning
makes a good ending
but what about the time
that you are spending
forgive and forget
let go and grow
but what if i remember
forgiveness moves slow

i want to love everyone for who they are
they’re just playing a part
in this play made of
rocks leaves and clay
my character is steeped
in four parts me
and one part history
if it splits in two
i’ll hide one half from you
i’ll take the other half and attach it to
a seed so it can grow
in mother natures womb
i’ll take the fruit from it
and i will consume
the garden sprouts
two hands
but the hands aren’t allowed
to follow what i say
so the right tells the left the only way to pretend
is to bind the other with a different skin
i’ll take my chances with the branches i create
props break
and the stage degrades as i see my fate
reincarnate
and move the play to another day

i can’t find the time
it’s wedged in the weight
it’s speeding up i can see it’s wake
i can’t find the time
and you know it’s nearby
it’s not far behind
i can see into
the future in my mind
but i can’t find the time
i can see into
the shapes that integrate
all vectors of time and space
can’t find the time
in all the books
they can’t find out why
we move through time
just close one eye
and chase the dragon
time is imagined

china banks
wallenburg
hollywood high
carlsbad gap
huba hideout
brookland banks
south bank
i lay it down
all around town it’s true
just booming hills
it’s what i used to do
there is a place
where i get loose and don’t pay
i throw myself down
the stairs it’s the only way

i stand in the seas up to my knees
and you said it’s the firmament
that’s holding it
so i look for
the cracks in the clouds
they’re just pillows of
probabilities on the breeze
so i choose the chance
to change my charge
the permanent past is at large
breath moves through
the sliding door of something more
anxieties grip
the running test of tolerance
sink into the
hallway of inverted mirrors
then climb out into the garden of lost hidden fears
cut the cords and hold it up
something to fill the cup
you’re not half the fool as the cup is a tool
an optimist is not out of luck

track and trace now they know my face
data base in the cloud
data base spittin numbers all around
i see the data base it runs the town
management without a crown
new programs to roll out the future
a better data base i rely on
decentralize just like in the quantum
a frequency of fractals brings freedom
so i step through dimensional diamonds
need control so they will own you
coincidence is how they break into
fear farms placed in plain sight
fantasies feed those who hate the light

Curry Grid

look at the lines i can see a few
all the lines combined and grew
get off the grid
step through the gap instead
the prophecy in my periphery
tells me that i better flee
get off the grid
step through the gap instead
so i drop onto another line
this one moves and lines divide
get off the grid
step out of line instead
it takes me from my periscope
and leaves me dry without a rope
it’s blurred and busted out
i don’t think i can fix it now
get off the grid
step through the gap instead
being off it feels like i’m going to shout
i need more strength to make this bought
now i can see ahead
but all i see is another grid
get off the grid

who remains when ambition is left unmet
when ritual is no longer the spirit manifest
bounded by fetish, gagged by amulet
the second act was just like the first
when u let go it was without regret
when u said I don’t cry for goodbye u meant it
my body perform, my body must get used
the 2nd act was just like the 1st
Chekhov's gun is lying in state
who remains when ambition is left

fear and pain the true teacher
pain makes fear become clearer
taking the meager to the broad
casting out rocks as i move on
there’s memory in me
it remembers how to be
in the future with a pine cone
and in the past that’s not yet exposed
it’s in my habits
it’s in my name
it’s in the ratio
that built this frame
relax relax
try to undo
what’s holding you
technology is inside me
i’ll find the past in the math
