Whatever

Waiting all the while
And not even a fraction of as patiently as I pretend
Working until I could work no longer
Crying until I could cry no longer 
Driving until I could drive no longer
Walking until I could walk no longer 
Finally 
A moment's rest
I nervously glance at my shoes
Knowing sometime earlier I wore through the soles
Oh, great 
I'm honestly too medicated to be awash in horror 
I merely observe the blood
Because it appears I also wore through my feet  

Kali Yuga

an era 
an apex
this is when the greatest numbers of words are being said
this is when the fewest numbers of words are being heard 
a weed was once a flower out of place 
now it is merely a weed 
a lie, often before a mere lack of information 
is itself, now a lie 
deliberate
begging for our damnation 
we have fully succumb to the Maya 
until the born-blue rose 
arises from the cobalt isotope radiation
witnessed by the light of stars 
that we will never see 

Ringmaster

You do not know 
And you will not know 
What the magician has planned for the end of the show 
Nor what painstaking lengths at which he did go
To ensure it is so

And it will never be quite clear 
What machinations brought him here
Or what exactly he held so dear 
Merely mumbles of something about his career 
Murmurs of something you didn't quite hear 

For years to come; those sleights of hand 
The sheer precision of collected command
The details you missed in the mists and the sand
Such a simple schema under guise so grand 

And it all comes full-circle, when the wheels are in motion,
the juggling acts and the senseless devotion
the hastened antidote to a crude and poison potion
Disappearing, reappearing, at mere mention or notion
Breaking out of cages, falling from floors- 
As fluid as the ocean.
