Illegal Firework

Storming circles, filaments
Piled snow, electric and undressed
Stranded rescued and returned
Exhausting mirrored candles slowly burn
Hidden deep away
Never go away
Kill your time on a rabbit’s eye
Static electricity
In the evening I am liberated
In silence and unmovingness
My beating heart preoccupied
Tethered and internalized
A candle in a jar in a room
My beating heart preoccupied
Tethered and internalized
Glowing out into the wild
Draining water, freezing cold
Power lines hanging weighted low
Huddled up and hidden down
Submerged in silent cold and scattered round
Hidden deep away
Never give away
Kill your time on a rabbit’s eye
Static electricity
In the evening I am liberated
In silence and unmovingness
My beating heart preoccupied
Tethered and internalized
Holding only one at a time
My beating heart preoccupied
Tethered and internalized
Running off into the wild
Isolated, understorm
Obstructed gaze, uncertain of your form
Sprawling wide and stealing space
I crumble softly, quiet in your wake
And i feel so left behind the world looks down on me from every side
They test for tumors on rabbits like you
And under electric skies i wrap the spool
In the silence I am captivated
By never ending static states
beating hearts preoccupied
tethered to a single line
The direction that we were headed now
Listening and passing time
In our travels unified
The fact there’s no turning back now
So where to go
Always the first word out of my mouth
An intonation that speaks to your doubt
I’m going up into the night sky
Too late to stop me, too futile to try
Fixed to a flaming point in the clouds
A roman candle in an emperor’s crown
Just like a beacon up in the air
In the burning middle of nowhere
Setting it off and getting a rise
Levitating you’ll wave me goodbye
All out perfection until I’m gone
I’ll run away from you, take off to the stars
King of the skyline, fill you with joy
Lifting the peril out of your voice now
Bursting asunder in simple time
A celebration void of reason or rhyme
I can’t return from the volley I've joined
Or escape the trail I've been tryna avoid
I cross the sky on an illegal firework
And all its been is a pyrrhic rebirth
And as I tear through every sense
I’ll captivate you and ease each defense
Just when I'm under the miles of your skin
I’ll liberate myself leave the stars singed

I hate the city
Human rat kings tied in knots
For your consideration
I’ll keep wasting
Time in labyrinthian lots
It’s just a detour
Through the most crowded place on earth
I can’t stand the public
And the smell just makes it worse
But we have a place to be
And I’ll hold you silently
Subway Stanchion
Get me to my destination
You’ll always have someone to lean on
Subway Stanchion
Get me to my destination
You’ll always have me to lean on
And at the exact moment we brake
Before inertia pulls you away
Before you step into the street again
And until you mind the gap
I’ll always be here to hold
If the floor is shaky or full
If the seats are crowded with people
Whenever you need

I Was a Watchtower

You’ll pick up the pieces won’t you
All that was blurry is distinct now
I should have never stuck around
My continuity’s all unfound
You’ll reuse the fabric won’t you
All that was certain only serves now to confuse
I wanna get lost on my own
So what if the changes fit her mold
I’m scared now only to be illegitimate
And if I escape from this cave
Will you think less of my face
Will you?
