Eyes are guided by tubes
One world by two
I gaze in through space
as the stars pass through
Bubbles collapse into
Bubbles, each new
By internal pipes I collapse into you
Yellow and green
Cotton bean
Float on the breeze
Roll on the sea
The endless clouds are blue
Rainbow, white, black and blue
I float away through you
Deep out of space into
The van shakes slightly, softly
White candles flame dance and coils in the wind
My skin is weak and swayed
easily by pins
I'd like a map to travel back
through again
Yellow and green
Cotton bean
Float on the breeze
Roll on the sea

Figure it out
This car dies when it idles
And life is one long transition
When traveling, I stick to the highway
The movement depends on the condition
And I'm not what I thought or I said I was
Would you polish me for better reflection?
It's not what I thought or I said I was
See the by the light of the fading sun
Moon rises
Code words, DNA strands
Buildings have pre-set plans
Their endings different
How to, build to
Build on buildings
I went downstairs
Roof as basement
I got halfway there
I was almost there
Bridges being built
Bridges washed out
Halfway there, I ran out
Half was all I could afford
It seemed silly to go on or turn around
Between where I left and
Moon rises
Code words, DNA strands
Buildings have pre-set plans
Their endings different
How to, build to
Build on buildings
I went downstairs
Roof as basement
I can't hitch a ride off better ideas
They're the friend to carry me
Carry me, carry me, carry me
Helpless
I'm sure you're not, I am
I'll not mold into stone, though you want me to
Be safe and safely without guarantee
One and endangered only species
Brick within a wall within a brick within
in a cell within a jail within my skin within...
Helpless

Of motion waiting, waited
To live, love, go, come
Silence
The sky is on and in
a solipsistic trench
Until the end begins and ends
Until the end, the horizon's
a scattered constellation
Of cases too small to apply
Of much unheard love
Hail
The sky is on and in
a solipsistic trench
Until the end begins and ends
Until the end, the horizon's
a scattered constellation
The five became clouds
and it got dark out
Stumble in shadows
Lost in and
This lung failure
Vision ender take to needs
A crumb feast
A tube or straw
To walk out of this square room into
Until the end begins and ends
Until the end, the horizon's
A scattered constellation
I run but I can't
I retire to freedom
Within this city's walls
Sailors' walls crashing
Walls on walls crashing
