 For J. Harvey



I can't remember when I thought you were a good friend.
Now we no longer need to pretend.
Booze is not something you choose.
When it comes to weed, I don't always have to feed.
You dig vinyl; I love cd's.
And you never cared for MST3.

You unfriended me on facebook.
Why should that hurt?
Do you really want to push me in the dirt?
What is one facebook friend worth?

I guess you did me a favor.
We don't like the same flavor.
We no longer have things in common.
Beginning to wonder if we ever did.

You would have loved Captain Beefheart.
If you were open-minded.
But you just love what you love.
And I was always trying to love what you love.
But did you ever do the same for me?
Thought we were hand in glove.
But you only see what you see.

There is a heart..



There is a heart that is pure.
There is a heart that endures.
There is a heart that I aspire to.
There is a heart I wish to capture.

There is a heart that is beating.
There is a heart and I need feeding.
There is a heart that makes me quiver.
There is a heart that always delivers.

There is a heart and her name is on my tongue.
There is a heart and she makes me feel young.
There is a heart that stops my pain.
There is a heart that cannot be named.

There is a heart who occupies my thoughts.
There is a heart who makes me feel lost.
There is a heart that I believe in.
There is a heart that gives me a reason.

My phone


I want to throw my phone in the deepest hole
My phone is sucking my soul.
My phone is in control
My phone makes me un-whole.


My phone knows every move I make.
My phone knows my mistakes.
My phone saps my strength.
My phone is onto me for Christ's sake.

My phone is like Hercules' hair cut.
My phone has got me in a rut.
My phone has become routine.
My phone is cold and mean.

My phone brands me and labels me.
My phone is insidious.
My phone makes me feel like an idiot.
My phone is Judas Iscariot.

My phone betrays me.
My phone delays me.
My phone won't let me sleep.
My phone is into me deep.

My phone is my identity.
My phone says who is me.
My phone puts me on the grid.
My phone knows where I live.
