26th-Jul-2009 10:52 pm - The old soul lives in the dark night
Of all of the things that I've experienced on this planet (and I use the term loosely), there is really nothing that satisfies me more than a truly passionate or involved conversation. I find myself drawn in further and further by the ideas and perceptions and conceptions attached to all of these interactions. It rarely ceases to amaze me, the vibrant, informative and unique individuals I have the pleasure of being surrounded by (day-to-day and in general.) I was just thinking about my friend that I see once in a while, and how I met him last night, and how even though I was waiting for other people, we all sat and smoked and drank and listened to the music. And other people came and left; some acquaintances, some total strangers, some were well-known. That's not the point. The point is: People fit in where they belong, and it's not hard to find a place to belong if you really want. Which I do.

Anyway, just because things have been pretty awesome in the last little while (however, all jinxes and voodoo aside,) I tried write a bit of an update and maybe even a poem, so here's the poem.





Hearts battered and hearts bend
and where's my soul? Is it in my head?

That whole-life illusion, the sun
like so many chests, and deep breaths
observed by loved ones as you sleep
late at night --
raising and falling,
and that moon, and the stars,
nature, god, women and wine,
that illusion --
that dream precipitates,
forms a thick layer on your mind,
in your broken, battered heart.

Your soul never suffers! Never
is the question for suffering
in your soul to be brought up;
wrought up or dredged from some
black
miasmal
hole
you thought was long gone, long
covered up.

And you wake, with that flavour
in your mouth, that grit
in your teeth, the punch
of smoke, Cigarettes, countless Cigarettes,
flirting with you
and with Nausea, while
Desperation goes to the bar for a drink.

I failed already, and so did you,
I gave in; I didn't go the whole way, I stepped back,
but you,
you stepped in.

Toes wet.

Wanna make a bet
that I am
the first person
to last for
ever?

My mind has as much to spin as my heart
has hot burning coals, smoking
and smoldering
and boiling everything
it sees. Why can't I be
cool like all those gatos you see sleeping
in dark alleys? Drinking warm milk out of saucers,
stepping between the pillars of legs underneath
a glass ceiling, in a maw of shopping malls,
wrapped in highways and asphalt,
with a smog cough;
some grotesque Godmas present we are too scared to open.

Well, we sit and breathe smoke to the lake,
sing to the moon,
lift the bottle and try to sleep it away.

You build me up with your wishin hell,
I didn't have to sell you..
you threw your money in the pissing well,
you do just what they tell you.


REPENT!!
that's what I'm talking about!!

I shed the skin to feed the fake..
REPENT!!
That's what I'm talking about!!

Who's mistake am I anyway?
</font>

You cut the head off
it grows back harder
I am the hydra,
now you'll see your star!!


prick your finger
it is done
the moon has
now eclipsed the sun
the angel has
spread its wings
the time has come
for bitter things.


REPENT!!
that's what I'm talking about!!

I shed the skin to feed the fake..
REPENT!!
That's what I'm talking about!!

Who's mistake am I anyway?
</font>

THE TIME IS NOW
IT IS QUITE CLEAR
OUR ANTICHRIST
IS ALMOST HERE

26th-Jun-2009 12:06 am - how hard it is..
Do you know what it is like?
what it is REALLY like
to wake up in this world and truly feel
and wonder and say to yourself things:
"My world is different,"
but then, is it? What are you? Am I?
I am that leaf on a tree, I glisten
but the sun shines off me,
and where am I?

That dirt
That tattoo
that song
that bird
those children
that wild, intangible
the way a beautiful girl smiles
or plays with her hair
my world is comprised of these.


So I smoke, I don't even sit,
I smile and I laugh at the inane
the battle on the television
the babble of the news,
my horrible, petrified feelings:
feelings of war, lust, greed;
gay pride parades and preachers screaming,
"OFF WITH THEIR HEADS! INDECENT
EXPOSEURE, CHILDREN, THE BIBLE!"
Then I listen to rock or rap music and fall alseep --
in the mainstream,
we are the main-stream.

SO, BE FAITHFUL. YEILD TO TEMPTATION
BUT YET SUBSIDE IN IT, SUBMERGE YOURSELF
AND SUBMIT TO THE ULTIMATE GOAL
THE "INTANGIBLE FEELING" WHERE YOU ARE BLOWN AWAY
BY A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT, IN THE CITY, ON A BEACH,
IN THE SKY, FLYING AROUND AT INCOMPREHENSIBLE HEIGHT.
BE WHAT YOU ARE AND ALWAYS BE WHO YOU MUST BE.

Much love and feeling, always,
-RBM.
24th-Jun-2009 10:38 pm - falling inbetween
it's a short blast..
it's a quick trip to the bottom,
radio noise, white and black and terrible sounds,
where the hell is this all coming from?
Neighbours? Sunshine? Blood and tears?
Where the hell are my parents?
And the phone rings..

WHAT DO I NEED? TIME!?

I woke up again, yeah, where was this dream? This script I am apparenty living every day.
I don't know but there was some banging at the door. It sounded like a wounded band, all screaming for mercy and in pain.. They sounded late for something, like they were all collectively on the way to work and their bus crashed. Was the driver drunk? I don't know, but it probably slammed into a movie set: Tons of actors, cameras, pyrotechnics, all that good shit.

I was just in the shower and I had this dream, I fell asleep and I'm ALREADY supposed to be at work, and my boss is mad. And no, it's ok, I'll be at the bar after work for sure, man.

Conclusion: It only gets easier as you get older. Soon enough you learn all your own vices and that's how you escape. Life is just escapism? So what are we doing now? You are just trying to get thru this and that day, this and that moment.. And you're not on camera, which is a huge disappointment because that's all I really want. I want some Truman show kinda shit where I build a boat and sail away to find a wall.

Shit. Then I woke up again.

Pop that top
you can twist and turn
move to the music?
Whatever you want..
Just know I am watching
I am right here, and I love it,
I crave that swing, that stagger,
the strutt and swagger,
and where have I been?

How we've changed, no longer idle,
hands tied and heads slammed together,
in the public, the pubic area,
where the fuck are we?

BOOM, here we are, bright white light.
It dies off, further and further
leaving me wondering:
Is this who I am?
Send here?
For now, at least, where is the future?
Past moments in present tense, blood pumping in my veins
and I fall asleep, again.

So I wake up, on a boat, in a dead sea
and I wonder, really, is this how it is?
Reality backhands you and you stand back up,
but there's no water to float your boat,
and you smile, knowing you just woke up.

FUCK.

So here I am..
Finally..
Except what do I _DO_ about it?
28th-May-2009 07:24 pm - I'm talking to my self..
I'm TALKING here..
HELLO?
PALM TREES?
SAND?
NEEDLES?
FEET?
GRAVY?
YEAH!

So what the fuck is goin on, daddy? WHERE ARE YOU? IT FEELS WONDERFUL! BUT I'D LIKE TO FEEL IT!
I stopped spitting when I talk years ago, especially when inside..
I tried going the other way, but I couldn't see..
it was too bright, amazing light of day..
I forgot what it is that you would say..
I'd do anything you'd say, at that point..
but please, forget about what it was I said to me..

Why is it I can talk to myself more?
I can't forget anything you said but I forget what I meant..
I already can't forget..

Stem to stem
flowers cut and bundled,
and bled,
where's my head? Put me to bed,
please? I can't stop talking to myself..

Why is every cloud kissing my poor pillow
in the morning
?

Why so tense?
Getting closer?
What is this?

Light mornings, warmth so soon.. and I'm starting to understand that whole cycle of rebirth.

It sounds stupid, yeah..

I'm getting closer..
Why can't I get inside?
imitation
situation
but it seems I've got neglected reservations
salvation
but I try and I try and I try..

I swore I'd never turn into you
I'm closer all the time..

No...
28th-May-2009 07:12 pm - slight bits..
I started thinking about these things the other day..
(and when it rains it pours)

like how the sky blew up and rain poured,
and it doesn't get much worse than that..

and how I fell down in a dream
but where was I? Was I free?

and I couldn't walk, or see,
or when I woke up, how I heard the birds

and they would chirp until my alarm went off..

I woke up to these things I thought about all day,
and I still wake up that way..
18th-Apr-2009 12:51 pm - strange
Wander the streets of your city
at night
and stare up and think
where have I been?

The crowd of people
it flows, it keeps on moving,
never have I seen so many faces:
hungry, happy, tired, drunk;
old, young, stupid, smart faces,
faces I feel when I close my eyes at night
and I wonder about all the other people..
I wonder about THAT crowd of people in MY city.

Walk around that block one more time,
find an alley,
feed the pigeons,
tip the homeless,
find a bar, another bar,
there's a bar downstairs!

Smile, nod, and then pass out.
Smile, nod, and clock in.
Nod, nod, smile, laugh,
handshake, handshake,
awkward but righteous gesture here and there,
jaywalk, it's fun.

Wonder where you are? Ever?
I love the glass and steel hive,
the way we fend for ourselves,
the way we adapt, even at night.

I can sit on trains for the whole night,
just staring at the reflection of a girl
in the windows.
She looks back at me but we will never speak,
we both know this.

When the train stops, in the city,
I get up and walk to it.
