they told me what i shouldn’t do
i listened good, i listened true
it’s not my fault, it isn’t fair
it should be me up over there
instead i lay here on my back
as all around me fades to black
a red light flashes just in sight
a mangled mass off to the right
a man leans down with coat of white
“he’ll never make it throught the night”

the narrator sees everything
the narrator knows everythong
the narrator can predict anything
the narrator is safe from all harm
many players look up to the narrator
they see him as a god
they continue their lives
as the narrator tells what happens
safe from all harm, the narrator stands
never involved in the conflict
the narrator is safe
the players continue their lives
the narrator stands in the corner
protected, isolated, alone
the players continue their lives
the narrator lies silent
fallen on the stage
slain with his own blade

choices…decisions
our lives are filled with choices
how does one decide
they may change the moment
they may change eternity
fuck it…i’ll work on it later
(unfinished…)
again you return
i thank thee
i can solve all your problems
just try me
eventually, you take me as your lover
never your wife
for though you love me
i will always hate you
you think you can control me
but i will not be controled
i will consume you
i will destroy you
not matter how much you hate me
you will always confide in me
i will kill you

speckles
pieces of sin
lying on everything
like blood on a fresh corpse
everywhere it goes
it leaves its mark
everything it touches
feels its presence

sin
burns like fire
consume, destroy
we
cannot control
all that we are
God
can save
if we give Him a chance
free will
He gave us
we use it the wrong way
in the end
we all die
and few realize that
death
is our only salvation
from this life of
sin

"love...emotion...feeling"
joy they bring
much pleasure
companionship
along the way
comes
pain
sorrow
death
God can save
people die
Jesus comforts
people kill
God cries
why can't we all get along?
war
no reason
slowly
some work back
to normalcy
to peace
faith in God
will save
199802251100
love
where is it
for me
not here
once
i had it
now
it’s lost
friends
love
people live
people leave
friends hope
people die
friends comfort
time heals
all wounds
or so i’m told
199802251055
people sit
soon
they scurry around
in pointless lives
still
they don’t understand
why they are here
alone
they will never see
if they don’t open their eyes
afraid
they fear death
their only salvation
hoping
only faith
can save them now
this was one of my first exercises in people watching.
you never know where you will find inspiration
