yes, I do look at my own reflectio
a lot
enough to say it’s a little odd
but in a city this size
it’s always good

So sits a mechanical boy,
Gathering dust on a Promethean sh
Rusted at heart,
He’s falling apart,
Amidst none but the past and himse

The human heart
is perfectly edible
delicious, in fact
if you pick out
the grit,

The dream paints for me an old cli
Losing his battle with the sea,
And upon the cliff stands,
Well,
There stands me.

She saw winter in me.
Nonetheless we each saw a forest,
Same place, different time.

The lady that made me
doesn’t remember
Mum’s the word
Word’s a shadow
I was measured against you

She leads the dance
each turn and twist,
we face to bow
and she breaks my wrist
Though hand in your hand

sometimes in the night,
it snaps and creaks,
the joints of the shadow
that preys on me.
The noise, how it worsens,

In these earliest hours of the mor
A smile creeps across my face

Still drunk at five,
And the world becomes mine,
An upstroke to insomnia?
Or perhaps just the wine?
To sing with the birds,

One by one they applauded eachothe
For what they had to say
They stood and presented themselve
Barely permeating the delerium of
That existed as the room itself

She had died
in everyone’s mind but mine,
yet still they buried her;
That,
I find unfair.

Today began a fire in me
A noble and ambitious beast
That dwells within my gut
Admittedly, yes
It hurt like fuck

Neatly the shade creeps up the sta
And at the click of one’s fingers
I’m ruined
Neither haunts nor scorn, but rath
Ignore me

Someone, somewhere,
That someone, somewhere knows–
It is reported that they died toda
Through war
Or work

The beauty of you
Is evident deep within
I found it in my heart, amongst th

And thus, I stand alone,
Though beaten I am, and so sore,
I scratch, bite, and maim, with
All primal tooth and claw,
But my lady of dreams,

No more than a dud, I hear

My companion,
My happy burden,
That walks with me now
And ten years ago all at once.
Once, my husband;

All they would want from you
Is a fag,
Until they decide that you

On Park Street, the street itself

For a few years now I have preten
I’ve walked through walls,
Haunted grey halls,
Sank through floors like i used to
I was adept at disappearance,

A beautiful world view
Whilst there was none to share it
Was still mine.
And thus I did cherish it as mine
The light of day that once belonge
