My Empire of Dirt

"black clouds emerge from the ground?

devour my blue skies, steal my fresh air

all because of an accident by

New Orleans's finest

oil refinery.

black water bubbling below

this bridge--

three-eyed fish?

has the world I live in

come to this?"


The Perfect Drug

"I am the pure embodiment

of all in which you must desire

burn the candle, light the flame

discover the everlasting fire.

i am all that you must yearn for

kill the need, release the greed

discover

you within me

i am the perfect drug...

and i want you"
