bell hooks all about love.. I love books! But here’s the other question.. What would be the one book you would have on a deserted island? I think differently about that!

Hmmm I don’t think I could say one thing specifically, the beauty of the book is that it covered things culturally and politically in the most artistic and concise manner possible… Provides a lot of reaffirming knowledge or thought starters for anyone reading it…

TO DESCRIBE YOU

So the dreams continued
Delusionally swimming within each other
Eating its own tail sumptuously
Everybody
The arrival of a deus ex machina

everybody has a page in time, place and history and poetry records it most accurately…

Essentially it’s the reverse of a normal reading where you explain a little and then read, in this case the focus is more on the explanation rather the piece itself, so the length of the poem and time is weighted for that instead.

Emerging from isolation

WITHOUT WORDS

Daniel Maluka and I are getting started on another project for the publishing out @page.records we started last year, we thought you’d be a great fit for it! We’re asking poets to record audio of themselves reading a short piece of their work along with their personal writing tips; which will be compiled on CD. If you’d down to take part can you shoot me your email so I can forward the details?

WHERE DO WE GO
Rolling along
Impressively disappointing new roads
Stepping intently with the left foot
Suddenly what’s featherlight and swingin is appealing
Clinically questioning what you can stomach sometimes
Reflect back what’s outside
Who benefits by getting paid
What’s the wreckage look like now
Lips hot for the exit
Maximum Joy
Might as well be imagining things… like the time for example




A ZINNIA
Compact Discourse
Blazing nightmare
Sort of sorting out
They look similar
Cold and familiar
At best Limiting the damage
We’re all just casualties of that fact talking back at with an ax
Only late adopters out at this hour
Funny lurking suggestive sunshine




WITHIN
Part of the tomorrow thing is that
A thinking specimen
Following a Path
Along a beach
Zig zagging back
Across frozen shore
on the nose

Preaching to a choir who can’t sing, theory and practice are two different things

Altered Images

There is only now that is real, and even that feels fictional because it is spliced together with memories of the past to create a narrative. I can claim to have a good memory but it just means that I am a good storyteller adding color to the faded fragmented memories. What is now is real when it ceases to be fictitious. True memory awakened in the moment. The tendencies is to inflate the usual and deflate the unusual, but the opposite true, these are moments of wonder. Now doesnt feel real because we are sleep walking alone in the present, only to be awakened by others presence, frightened we retreat to the past.



HOW MANY
Maybe it’s simply an agreement
Contextual in the best way possible
Over and out
Leaving some breadcrumbs
Go to bed a little hungry
Be ready to Find the poem
In the mid morning
Breakfast for flowing
Taking stock inventory
Inventing a way to get up
Mess up playing dress up with
Other ppls lies

Full of Grievances

Over and over circling the block looking out for a Cooper’s Hawk

Compensatory Consuming
A solitude that sings
You have your soundtrack
a revolution instead
you can see it

gliding yapping and divided
Feeling of elsewhere
Different
mandates for emancipation
to get a closer look

Contingent temporal decisions
Close rendering, quiet din

A hidden gem is a faulty antidote
Spare details of other lies

Who you are is what you see

TASTING THE NIGHT
The splash of the coffee foam set her off
There’s music everywhere
Some people are shaking it
Sonically disobedient beats
Moonlighting in Tunisia
According to the dance floor
My feet have felt the earth
Man by the railroad tracks
Doing the locomotion
Legging shaking to an earful
Just Playing the Blues
Just add ice
legs are shaking
I don’t feel a thing
Sticking to my pay grade

EVERYTHING ELSE
Problem children pathetic appetites
Dancing in my own idiotic
Dressed like a beer store employee dog hair all over ya

Got it on lock or getting my clock cleaned in the meantime

Hot on the head Thumbing through solitudes crowded with loneliness in an empty busy bar

Some pages might get torn out
Hating someone else’s guts, tasting someone else’s strident gum from a distance

The pecking order of the white story
Things will be classy then they won’t be
Spewing Russian Constructivism
because the squares are
close enough

just how much misery did I miss in the history of the cave Now how dark
was the horse and what is
the spread on the underdog
tomorrow what’s
the catch

Poise or poison I guess it’s funny to satisfy your answer right there skating from this place that ain’t to be.

Sounds awful but is the vessel there and do u wanna hop in fucking off the last sentence of this planet rock while it’s scratching it’s own eye
As I fall
Down through at least two elevator shafts to get to you The limb being the only way
Backlash against the algorithm
kniving out the soul inside
Conniving the shitty man buns out

Do invroverts have babies or invest in mirrors of sunshine

This sounds crazy but I’m fine
playing law of averages here
Jumping out Tearing pages
out of a copy story

Fun loving criminals at chillys

I worked in kind of handicraft way.The advantage is that you are independent… You realize that the Hollywood technical slick perfection isn’t all..but that the spirit and the love to do the things counts

I tried to balance the law of chance and the law of order. In living this conflict I created my work. I said yes to this conflict. I listened very carefully to the chances which the surroundings of my own work or people or whatever I read or hear or feel offers me.

I need to know what I’m doing is really the right thing. I have to satisfy nobody else. That does not mean the artist has no social duty. He is part of the times. What he expresses is what the ordinary people do not hear feel or sense as clearly as he does.

Art means being. It’s a new form of being.it’s what Thomas Mann said, it is between ordinary living and ideal living

Healthy demons

Bleeding on the edge of Who knows what I’ll do or say next

Who needs the song of anonymous when we’re all at a loss

Duplicating what that

Leaving shitty tips
Random acts of beauty

Speaking of it
Telling people what they want to hear

I’m in a hard spot which I have been doing my utmost to navigate pretty much the entire time I’ve known you and more and more intensely in the past few months because I can both empathize and understand where you are coming from; but I don’t think this is being managed or reciprocated in any way...

I don’t feel like there is any respect for my boundaries as a friend, nor regard for my vulnerability and as former romantic partner. My energy, kindness and trust have been taken advantage repeatedly, and by extending the courtesy of safety and concern to someone who does not want it, it is taking away from my ability to provide for those who need it. I feel like I am unnecessarily close to something that I have no reason to be anywhere near. You have the right to live your life the way you want to as do I, so there are other, better ways of handling things…

Take care of the things right in front of you.
Focus on the things you can control
then Scale

Selling is about consistency. Life is about inconsistency. If you’re trying to sell yourself you’ll live a difficult life

YOUR INCISORS
Theyve sizzled a pig in here
Then someone farting
Heads nodding in agreement
That wasn’t supposed to happen so
Immensely soaring past a rainbow cloud

Totally understand, I was going to say if you’re overwhelmed rn there’s no pressure, thanks for being candid, I can understand the need for headspace and prioritizing balance especially this time of the year, I definitely feel you there and I don’t typically date around the holidays for that very reason, so I anticipated this being a little tricky to navigate…

No doubt at all that you are an absolute babe! I want to get to know you more, so yes I would like to connect in the New Year I think that would be a much better time when we can both be present and warm each other up… Feel free to reach out any time send a song etc I hope you get record hour in, good hang’s and keep your sunflower vibes flowing!

I think the only thing I’ve wanted over the last six months is to sit down and talk with you face to face sober and enjoy your company and learn about your life and how you are growing. This is actually all I’ve ever wanted. You're a brilliant human.... How does that make you feel?

I didn’t have to stop by but you knew I was coming, you could have locked your door and I would have left. Given what’s happened to you recently I felt the need to at least make sure you were in one piece. That was a pathetic scene that I didn’t need to see but I don’t need an apology.

At this point my relationship to you is based on care, if you don’t want that, and are not ready for that I totally understand. You’re sick and I’m just learning the dos and don’ts and what your capacity is; but right now the fact that you don’t have the capacity to stop drinking and lock your door tells me enough to create my own space.

I don’t want to be labelled a victim and I don’t want to be one of your excuses to shame yourself and drink. When you’re ready to change I’m here, just be clear about your intentions and boundaries in the meantime. I'm being clear about mine.....

You live your life the way you want to. You don’t need to live the way everyone else does but you do have to own the way you interpret the world and how you relate to those in it, it's a process but I think that's every human's responsibility.



WHOS THE REAL
No matter the weather they have eachother
Regulating temperatures
Holding hands

Why are books being judged by their covers
it's Tiring
Praying that the sun is up
Drying A cruel joke


WHO REALLY WROTE THE STORY
Sibilant
Who’s got the luxury of recovering
Expectations


Crotch scratching paint splattered shoes
The blues

Eyes playing
Who’s who

Coughing different voices climbing the ladder

Counting reserves sitting in reverse
Curating quiet
Are we there yet?

Scarlet

——//—

You’ve never asked me a serious question
Yet you’re the only flower I can take care of

And the only fact I can give u since is dancing in a public is like
reading a book in
a bar

defiance

even if it’s a little jig

And so this message again:

I guess you’ll guess you’ll get this in the morning
.
Letting you know there are things I would not have awoken to if you were not here.
There are things I would not have known if you were not born. I am happy that you are here for another year. Another happy birthday, another time I can say I love you.

And the reminders Siri gives me about your body Of work on me
To send flowers at 4:33

In the evening while I’m at
work by the time you’re
home you’ll get this

Know how much I miss u

It is with ease that I write u
/admit/
Everyday is a breeze as long as your
Kiss is my last breath

In futura. (The same paranoia)

I Danced at turning points last night
spun in circle just for u u u


The music, these things We tap into
Are a spell from the moon

A trance

All this ritual
making us
right

I can’t even hold a home wreckers hand for a dance without thinking of you
One revolution less

Stuttering these sentences off a cliff called happy birthday

I’ll be there Clarence parks plays

Pointing at this work of art (the audience continues laughing in captions)

Clapping and stomping
to heartbreak

The Same Paranoia


Unconscious Neuroticism





OR GAINED YEARS
A sense of purpose
Sharing your vision
Goes without saying

The circle is broken

A hawk flew over St.Helen’s Gil Scott Heron was playing the Revolution
Will Not Be Televised

As I returned from the West
Wu tang an American Saga
Psychic sky

Conspiracy theory(suggested to me once) called the wrong thing
So we kill tony play dominoes
Gi joe marvel comics
Anything to dismiss
The insidious
Gigantic

Stillness

I have meditations in an emergency on me with an innocent man running loose
In incoherent fluent Spanish on the streetcar

Crotch scratching paint splattered shoes
The blues

What years have been lost between
Church street Krispy Kreme and Harvey’s
On the summit
Of
Living things

Current events

Different silhouette wearing the same sort of nonsense

Barry Elmes Yonge street limited suites pass me
Now selling everything
isn’t a new thing
(Just Capitalism)

There was once a Parent holding that conservative rookies hands

Staring at the other Mirroring you
Eating for free when the emergency alarm goes off

With a raging sense of self importance

Lost years or gained
Goes without
Saying.

We’re Duking it out for a sense of purpose
Expecting another delay

Black Mountain poets
Happening Again

LOST YEARS

I shouldn’t be made to feel stupid for asking about the time we
spent together

What it meant if anything or the meaning of it going forward if we’re to
be “friends” anything

This isn’t a new complaint

Just Keying a theme of the period

The good thing is I forget quickly

Talking eyes eyes without a face billy idol
Plays in the background

What a terrific use of time
And space we had

Badlands full of
myths and traditions

Truck stop along the way

The funky stuff

Jan Wade: Soul Power
Suzy Lake

Jock Macdonald
Viola Depew prints for sale
Fab
This Is The Nemesis
Chain Gang 2
Lawren Harris
Jim Stewart • Village Galleries Maui
Landing the Plane

Things can quickly turn into that makes sense


WHAT WERE THOSE DAYS
In allegiance with being
The mixing going on
It All Counts
Happy you like it!
I certainly indulged alright!



OR BUST

When I think of something anything regarding you surrounding me it’s is the right thing to do

Capital P Pity

Bipedal

Indistinctly muttering what have you done for me

Weike Wang, whose latest novel is Rental House, questions traditional narratives about working hard and starting families: “To feel challenged by what you read or learn is how a person grows.” And poet Jena Osman recontextualizes historical documents to help us recognize that “we’re caught in the slow cycle of a giant wheel that needs breaking.”

The conversation is interesting linking
The little ones to the problems

Extras off stage part of the performance
/did he ever recover from last night/

Put it down there put everything down to it
I’ll see you after the holidays
Not a word til then

The difference is the other kids at school

Presenting the Hollywood vibe
Acting just as idiotic
as yesteryear

Here I am exaggerating proportions

/Trying to explain a salvia trip anyone is hopeless

I was everyone i was gone and there was no vanishing point/

Just surprising information

Phoenix sun airport lounge

Sounded like something falling

Let’s make a record of this

Lack of questions too many questions

Mutual observation

Everyone has there soundtrack

CHANGE THE CHANNEL
Beginning today with the weather
The cactus path chose today
Curved chimney
Pulling into the spot
Getting extras out of the car
Lilting limping hobbling along
Carefully conceived asphodelia
I would have to be imagining them in this underworld where Silence washes
my ears
Changing on the level
Balancing through the gears
Learning the landscape again and again
Gaps in love
I must contain my worst nightmares
I need a direction to run in
This is a new turn

ISNT TO BE TRUSTED
/you spent 300 dollars, daddy why did you spend all that money/

My feet fit differently between the leaves
Every tree seems like a threat
And Voila!

The design of my eyes mean
I Keep missing the
wrong turn

Stumps turned tombstones in the night
Barking through my breath

Fortune telling true lies
Fighting for this
skin everyday

This body cannot be trusted

Black man in disguise
A rabbits red eyes
Stir crazy already disturbing what birds are left

Always advancing /immovable topic/
To another perfect example of cumulative bs

There’s always an answer right in front of you and an ancestor behind

The foxed wrestle back what belongs

With The interminable dark arts cutting my temperate figure through the forest winds rapturous applause

These feelings feel above my pay grade existing on the new plane

With my moon cut in half.

“Another example of this perfect relationship between man and nature is evident in the encounter of a shepherd and a goatherd who meet in the pastures in Theocritus' poem Idylls 1.”

WHATS SEEPING IN
That’s more challenging grinding and grilling
We’ll have to get this one right

Definitely feels like we’re all carrying a bit of the grief, Ive been debating what to do, she said she will be in town for her birthday, it’s hard to say what state she’ll been in but maybe we can go for dinner and surprise her? I know Natty will be in town at some point too..I guess we can get a vibe in the next few days!?

She’s cute artistic, flirty and well travelled has a decent sense of humour and what her hobbies are and it’s 2023 I can’t remember the last time I made out with someone on the first date!

Don’t lie about yourself, and never lie to yourself. Find the thing in you that is different, that’s as sharp as a diamond and jagged as a razor. Hone that, because that’s the thing with which you’ll cut the world. If you try to stay safe and soft and average, then you’re going to get lost in a sea of all the other things that look like you. Find the things about yourself that are weird and cultivate them because they are the things the world will eventually want to reward you for and that will bring you the most happiness.

BECOME POROUS
Held
Like Lego reggae
Stupidity versus exstacy stuttering along slightly
Looks
Detritus
Fasting rather than flying
Flurries
Any entry point

Time sensitive playlist
Another intuitive exercise
Cosmically enchanting
A Hegelian Ponzi scheme


First I shall decide what I can do, then if I should enjoy doing it. Whether anyone wants the results is a much later consideration.

THE MAINSTREAM
Dropping a pin in a hushed voice
Grammas are online shopping
Kids scrolling anime laughing
Too many shoulders shouldering not the
Right temperature
Temple rubbing tension
Holding anonymity closely
just in case
The Next Big Day
Is everyday
Walk slow
Balance like a dancer
Get a paycheque from the universe
Emotional currency, emotional urgency
How long is forever
Possession inexhaustible
Mixed up in all this earth

“Study hard what interests you the most in the most undisciplined, irreverent, and original manner possible.”
— Richard Feynman


BOUNDARIES AROUND
/how do you know her/
A gauntlet to get out of here
We’re at different stages in different states of settling for ourselves
I’m busy writing my life
the characters in the plot

Thanks for taking the time to talk today I know you are still in shock so I didn’t want to get into things too much, sorry if I did I just had a lot that had to spill out, there is so much I’ve just had to stomach and process on my own over the past few months without you… I understand a lot more now… You don’t have anything to be ashamed or embarrassed about you understand better than anyone what you need to grow in the world and if it means falling down so be it you’re just learning the power of your intuition and some things cloud it, we all have different things that do… I’m here for whatever you need and I can’t wait to give you a big squeeze for your birthday!

I’ve had some experiences this month that have moved me… I’m going for a long run my body is jittery and my mind is in a million pieces, let me know when we can talk today I’ll feel better once we do my emotions need need time with u, I’m just as grateful to have u. I’m glad you’re safe ❤️


THE ARC
Tanita Tikaram
Carrying an acorn in case
Everyone is eating popcorn in public watching
Staring like stones
As though there were 20 people talking between two
/it’s a mixed bag/

BEYOND
Some like it got others have rules
/pivoting away from full house/
All crying at the exact same time

inside out with a Funseeking, light leaking aura
Lush life
Sampling is no small thing

"But think of how an artist or a revolutionary takes what’s given and pushes against the status quo, looking for and revealing new realities that nobody sees yet. I am suggesting that we could all be artists and revolutionaries of our own lives and environments." --Polley


WITH A QUESTION
How many eloped
147 years ago
The poor junction is never the same
Certain to
/I foresee this shit bro/
Remake of the same
Nuanced from the last
Leaves falling behind the Edison bulb
Just what you’re needing
Treat it as special as any work of art
Assign it with a question and continue

People come into the store
try on a shoe, I bring them
the same shoe

In another colour
They ask if its the
same shoe

I say yes it’s the
same human

Striking Resemblance
Melting time

THESE WORDS ARE MARKED
/he struggled to understand me because he couldn’t understand the way that I think, he just thought I was crazy all the time/

So the lighting changed,they took a gorgeous course elsewhere chased by terriers
Les savy fav let’s stay friends
Tropical hoppy bittersweetness
Overthinking darkside cascades and galactic adaptations
Coulda happened another way
Fermented differently
Today we are still battling just battling in other ways
So we walk it off after many a fall
In the winter dwindling
Questioning the brainbusting upcoming events
And the sincerity of what’s hand written all over it
Haven’t worked out which is which yet or the gist

I hopes he’s dead
After the first couple of bites

Granite hot under the collar
Lesson plan make plans in advance
/I got triggered because he flaked on me every time/
Walk it Off


TAG YOURSELF IT
PAROXSYM
Orbiting
To What is keeping in you moving
The music being good
Who wants to be with anyone anywhere
BIG MAN
Rumours
/we saw wolf,we heard deer/
Say it how it was that day
The horse following
the truth is not the in the actual language
Ride it out

PLAN THE TARGET
Bump and tilt
Master of irrational fears
I’m good just to be
bad instead
Revolutions
They seem to be buying everything
Falling for the big fake
The simple moves fool you
I’ve never seen so many ads in my life
Out of step
A gross thing to have put
When I open my eyes it’ll all be over
Soft Winds



HOW DO YOU MAKE IT
EMBATTLEMENT
Words meaning anything so begins vehement EMBATTLEMENT

From the beginning how my rattle went
EMBATTLEMENT

Slept on the couch EMBATTLEMENT
Random people sent to heaven or wherever EMBATTLEMENT

Talking to the pavement head down EMBATTLEMENT

Barely made a dent in the world yesterday EMBATTLEMENT

Went to sleep woke up EMBATTLEMENT

Didn’t even get a sniff EMBATTLEMENT

Useless ridiculous body EMBATTLEMENT

Lopped off at the wrist jawing off at the mouth EMBATTLEMENT

Enabling habit EMBATTLEMENT

Shaky memory EMBATTLEMENT

Lost cause EMBATTLEMENT

A baby’s hands trembling EMBATTLEMENT

staring into space filled by me myself and I EMBATTLEMENT

Unseasonable temperature EMBATTLEMENT push pull
Heat seeking missile
EMBATTLEMENT

Bowel congested itchy skinnned gut wrought EMBATTLEMENT

Honestly could care less what happens next EMBATTLEMENT

Jumping out of a building window waking up in bed EMBATTLEMENT

Dropped in the lake drowning in a duvet EMBATTLEMENT

Pulling clothes out of the closet getting dressed again and again and again EMBATTLEMENT

Walking across the street making a left turn up the steps to get a coffee then becoming a crabapple for no good reason EMBATTLEMENT

Scared by the ghost of enlightenment EMBATTLEMENT who
Just so happens to be me.


So it’s just the rain of entrapment
A cool breeze of free spirit
Love or fear

We’ve never really danced before
Yet we dance in nocturnal
campions

Pulling clothes out of the closet
Peeling away layers of severity
Civilization of seekers


FACTS
and then again
I’m a stroller rolling downhill in a shopping cart towards the exit
Although thudding along concrete toward another Ta Da
ah ha
Magic moment
Instant serial fiction
A geyser tapping the earth for pay dirt
Next months thrust
The light in you visible sticky and reflective
Moving like the room
Feeling towards The weather
Wounded paws all along
Just because
Sure of the better for worse parts of myself
I become devastating when I don’t hesitate
Working down from the top
Not the BB gun you wanted not the one you liked
Whst are the words how do we use our imagination our

If anything were to happen to you I’d be cooked and everyone knows it

“I had to grow I had to become a man a man in the sense of the world who can step out into the world and deal with matters on a basis that is combative
And so I grab that long road that goes on for 30 some odd years of learning how to fight think in new ways change one personality for another. And in some certain way I became sort of if you will species of combat soldier in life than in war” — Mailer

AND AGAIN
SILENCE UNRELENTING
DELETING YESTERDAY
Another page
Designed today with a saw
Lounging on a trip along the way to the fiesta organically blossoming back in time to the pits
The liberty of youth can be found riding a bicycle if you want to again
Discover
Killer turning points by a winding riverview
I can’t love myself better than I can
Again and again
Silence unrelenting
attested to
I’m obvious to everyone but you
All motion to a stop broken accordion
Read words left wrinkled by my bed
All the negatives ticked away in a box
Water words
Bobbing weaving rustling with the leaves
You can whack me back into the ground after making that sound with the cranes and the cement

DIFFERENTLY AGAIN
I’m basically an epicurean accident

A dissident from my shaky beliefs (sounding out from my beneath)

The minute u leave

Percussive alarm bells gangle from my ear lobes

Wondering what we’re all
gonna do you while
we’re here

Listening

teaching ourselves to write it all down

The steady flat rhythm
in the background

grandiloquence adolescently used

Each job is a move

Necessary and unnecessary roughness

Seeing thru a cloud of purple rain and
I see thru wrapping paper

My november has been kind, lots of running in high park preparing for a race and work has slowed down so there’s been some good recalibrating time... it's been quite a year, looking forward to the holidays! (but not the itchy wool part) just the Definitely cozy cocktail season
—a good reason in time to grab one and ask juicy questions and stuff

Necessary and unnecessary roughness

Innocence in hindsight

There was another place we dreamt of when we were young

Choosing the right characters
setting, and plot for the story

Suicide by job or National Geographic
homelessness

Intuition vs logic elapsed in
a medley driving by
in an suv

trying to find

“the vibe “

So I’m spelling the sentence differently again accidentally epicuriously
Trying to go the distance

Every step forward a move

A pro social risk

(Stepping over potholes and grates)

Breaching the castle gates

Big and small bread crumbs
Pigeons eat em

then

tell me the rest
along the
way.

Making the sound of things would happen (captured) in exactly that technicolor gray.

Today.

Res Futura


TELL (ME)THE (BEDTIME)STORY
Of anybody will do

I wonder what your problem is and how/if
I coulda
narrow it down

To Hideously beautiful ignorant
Relief

The record I bought today has different motor to it

An engine of indifferent belief
Freedom within sonic quality

Words have that landed better than images

Sounds spread all around

There’s an intimate quality to how he’s doing it

Im poignitanly irreverently over it
All at the same time
so it settles
in time

The full moon yesterday
And I’m still enraptured

In my bed clothes with a glass of red wine
Desperately pressing for
a commercial break

I wanna please please please star stud a masterpiece

Anybody by the lake

Within a Meridian

Blindspotting with back up artillery
Just in
Case

Sparkles from beneath


What can’t be

These feelings are familiar

I’ll make the appropriate changes later

BACK
“Find a speed at which you can fall asleep”

Cranberries bleeding from ears

Apparently it’s okay to ask for help
Remembering everything about it
The future forecast of gypsy jazz

Learning from the landscape
a personal pattern of action
The editor can do whatever they want to
Sweeping away time
what you think about it
What you believe about it
To be

BIRDS
Dogs barking at statues

Waxing gibbous on an easel
Comedically the same terrifying thing
Forgetting everything
Sitting with yourself
on each other’s reflection





CLOUDS
Dark
Speaking with yourself
Giving yourself NRE
dialling into the situation
Just until it won’t disappoint you
when did you start to believe something bad would happen?
what music took you there?
Limiting the damage
Finding your own remote place
It could go a number of ways
Rocking up in your two step boots unannounced
Putting a lid on it and binning the bullshit
Future fake, hope make
Fashion a smile, fancy a taste
Careful what you wish for and the the rest will take care of itself
We’ll find out what we’re about
answering our own damn dial tone
Shadow boxing
going through The Motions

SKY
Not in the way I wouldn’t tell you
Or say it in the voice of oz

I’m going to be out of this world
Beheaded a mad municipality

Horseshoes rubbed off of me
Scrubbed off dopamine

She’s looks nothing like me
The kids are playing hip hop
And the graffiti on the train is no longer poetry

Held up in 82

Loose wheel in a bus to a ridiculous strip mall

Blinded by the inside of an Iris
Using the strength of every emotion in a single day

The sun out earlier now dry leafy
Branches blow like a wild
Blackhorse

The sky a bundle of mind games
Trade secrets

A friend of mine sent this to me the other day, really sweet..

These are songs heard in the wind (like racquet bar but with a more specific theme), different feelings from different places, and different times, that have caught my ear since September. I thought about sending it when I sent the other playlists, or some other time, but just thought I’d follow the universe on this; my friend sending me that msg really made it feel like it was time to share it… Anyways, I guess it’s poetic or whatever… I never make playlists and I don’t know what to make of it other than it sounds like a 15 year old with braces made it

im not sure why im sending this, maybe other people just say it better, some things just enter, no matter where i am... i don't know anymore than you do...it could go on and on....

THE TOP
Maybe the place has seen better days
All in the weeds
Sticks that have weathered storm
Honestly


START FROM
TIME AND PLACE THESE DAYS
Buttercup
Everybody tuning out time
A gigantic cloud just pulled up on the park from an ultra distance
You’re allowed to look away

No you get it now you don’t
more interesting to look than read the book

/if you’re my dude if you’re my buddy/

when you Zoom Outand See where dont give a fuck lives, you’ll save your life and you'll see that Having the awareness to be self aware is about as much self awareness as you get



IN DISGUISE
Somehow been blow away by a hard year in the wind flourishing and brandishing my best behaviour

Tremendously getting to work
Space saving design
The journeys version

Yes and it would be great to get to know you as a person!

Friday checks out for me, I’m the other side of the bridge Dundas/Gladstone, do you wanna check out Sounds Good? Could be fun!

/I’m not supposed to tell you this/
But this actually all makes sense

“Every morning we wake up and re-create capitalism. If one morning we woke up and all decided to create something else, then there wouldn’t be capitalism anymore. There would be something else.”

"If you seek tranquility do less" -- Meditations


Often a conundrum for one
Rising with the sun
Being true to
Nature

A conundrum for one
Rising with the sun
Staying true
To Nature

If it is
Existence which
Ails us
It is the vehemence
At which it encroaches
Which is most frightful

CATS EYES
I have plenty of nifty features anachronistic in fact
So goes the
Dead end (detonation) restoration
in progress

I hear you September

was like that for me so nice to settle into some sort of groove again…Good visit with my friend, one of those ppl that speaks a similar cultural

language and anchors

me to reality, lots of shifts in our lives over the past few years…

I have a million questions,

you haven’t lived here

in a decade
NY must have been something else! Where have u settled back in the city?

What does your week look like for a drink/ hang?

You’re not really choosing person you’re picking a context

The playlist is all mixed up in time
What if we’re celebrating the wrong wins

Listening to nothing but compliance on blast

Straight guy energy, different mentality lost over there

So we move in our own way

By the looks of your apocalypse plan you have some things figured out how do we figure the rest out?

Fast times locked in
Fellas quoting “Like Him”
Getting away just jetted in time

Knowing we’re mesmerized in the poetry
Of each others lives

Sneezing on a saxophone all along
Gronking on. Nonsense
I’m just placing majesty on this earth just in case

And that’s just one out of millions theories



WITH JEDI MIND TRICKS
I’m looking forward to meeting u
Finishing a book starting a new one
Hearing a new record I bought and running again it’s been over a mo
Live in your words and stick to the story
Maybe they saw the same star
Heard it happening
Drinking cold beer cloudy
Summer breeze and Simply red
Slap shot fox puck
Werewolves of London and then
She was sitting in a ridiculous position
Apparently I’m very balanced
Hemmed off realms and scripts
No more found or lost than they
Having a delusion about what life’s supposed to be like
Although it might the free range type
despite the goosebumps
growth spurts
Numb resolve
cheering from the rafters
Waiters asking for coke after
In orderly fashion then asking
What’s next with a question text
Fashion season tastefully janky



THE TROPHY LIFE

Dressed like a ten year old
Looking something like
Me Is another
BACKWARds IN THE TROPHY LIFE
Full of of knives and Halloween

Hot pursuit of impressions

Some guy has a sign that’s says I’ll buy your sins and I’m at the back of
the vip line but I think
I’ll get in

Una mas one after the next in pampers
So we mange in the meantime

Chewing the fat in
laps of chatter

Mariachi ceased up in some strange way
Off kilter with the guilt hurt

Words are a way to survive
The Dark Tree playing with the lights on

Recognizing something else
Building an interesting intersecting collection

The speakers sound muddy because of a
variety of collaborators

Sweet Jesus and the people hurting
Perhaps because the architecture is too intense




SEEK AND DESTROY
Might as well see the doc
it’ll be a hoot The owl taking
notes on me or whatever

Letters designed on the page

I guess that’s how you take yourself
seriously whenever you get the
itch to go camping

Underlined in case circled
because we’re shooting
the shit then she
will explain it

Taking the mystery away
from a body of work

Now we get to dig in— press
the doorbell (or button incase)

One voice dominates the other
How it is not, yet, how
they read your
expression

The fight is lost before it’s begun
Just by the tone of voice

/he was literally normal/

Who is you and how did
We take that selfie

Think about the
Commit

Absolutely espresso martinis
Thank his for run away
Masterpieces
