Mass

All it takes is a little
weight thrown around
to make your own reality. I
 should have adapted,
adjusted, according to they
who do not speak
at things they see.
But if monkey see
then monkey do,
and I believe that is the rule,
they'll never make a
 monkey out of me.

The numbers

add up to other numbers

Equating solution with resolution

is a mistake I’ve made

and continue to make

when I feel less than

able?

Greater than pain?

And I would kill my own brother

for a chance to please you,

I think you have to be told

about greatness, not shown.

The night

rises in the West

until dawn, and the dispute

isn’t settled, but when

conducted by a boy

it will rage.

Until the lady returns,

none of us are

getting out of here alive.

Head in the Clouds

I got three for free
but whatever you give
I’ll grab and want more,
it comes and it goes
but it’s always above or below
appropriate amounts.
Listen, because
this is when it counts,
whatever comes,
whatever shows
along the way,
I will surmount.

And look at it all from up here
 it’s all carried and doesn’t stick
it’s there without weight
and I really hate
to come down the mountain,
welsh on the bet I’m taking:
that when I try slaking
my thirst is when
I feel it worst.
