A Turn with the Moon

Ain't nothing quite like it

Never thought I'd miss the fightin,

Doing a lot better than I'm feeling

Call me a crook but I ain't stealing.

But I want a turn with the moon

I want a turn with the moon

I'm tired of love like a big typhoon.

I'm ready to ditch the doom and gloom

Aww the sun's been fun,

but I want a turn with the moon.

The oceans are rough, and I ain't got my sea legs.

Feeling a real emotion, it ain't like the fakes

Tryin to bolster is hard on a rollercoaster.

When ya got a few blanks in the holster.

Just a kitten playing with balloons and fireworks

I scramble and jump at every overthought quirk

Seein every wham and boom

As big ol incoming doom

But I'm standing back up

Cause I want a turn with the moon

I want a turn with the moon

waiting for that earth shattering kaboom.

It's scarier when I don't gotta choose soon

But I think I want a turn with the moon.

Will I hurt, will I cry?

Am I just caving while afraid to fly?

Is there no reason, is there plenty?

Mental bankruptcy from a single penny.

I'm above the drifting space junk

In an intergalactic funny feeling funk

That rocket flew by going zoom,

High as can be, still stuck in my room

I don't know if I can reach,

But I want a turn with the moon.

This is the last of this bunch of poems I'm posting, I'm just scared of love tbh.

D&E

D&E

Yer initials on that tree

Who you were, who you'll be

Oh D&E

D, I hope y'alls alright

E, I hope y'all don't fight

Both y'all flyin like tangled up kites

Together or apart, I hope y'all find new heights

D&E

Yer initials on that tree

No matter who you were,

I hope you'll be all you can be

Love each other, or don't, ain't up to me

Get along D&E.

I'll never know y'all's story, but I got to see your start.

Maybe y'all's evil, or maybe y'all got a good heart.

I hope you make a home, with your flourishing love

Like the blue jays nest In the branches above

D&E

I hope y'all do as you please

Love don't stay with ease

It's more than just birds and bees

I believe in ya, D&E

Ain't nothing like (Fallen Tree)

Ain't nothin like a fallen tree

A makeshift bridge

Showin ya more nature to see

Takin ya where your steps lead

Drums in my heart, Banjo in my ears

Who needs weed, who needs beers

When the woods lift me above my fears

Swaying trees in the breeze, oh slow my gears

Ain't nothing like a root chair

A makeshift sofa

Aww nature can't be unfair

And the critters are always there

Running about like I'm a teen

Actin like a natural born fiend

The plants always listen, they ain't mean

And I can always head back when I'm keen

Ain't nothing like a river churnin

A makeshift musician

They don't care if my hearts a-yearning

Cause them seasons keep a-turning

Aww them woody feeling feelings

Nature's watching me struggle n reeling

I heard her secrets, they're so healing

she don't care to which god I'm kneeling

[skyflyhii]

favorite word?

Y'ain't

It's so so good

Ain't Enough Hours in the Night

I hear you pray for a longer day

Well that just ain't what I say

I've a tale I'd like to tell

Of a sweet lil southern belle

You'll agree with me alright

That there ain't enough hours in the night.

Well I took this gal on nice lil date,

Pretty sights we saw, good food we ate

The hours rolled and sped on past.

Till She turned and to me an asked

“Can I take you home, if I might?

Lay with you all the hours of the night?”

Oh I take a sip, and she took a swaller

She took me to bed, made me swear and holler.

Never woulda thought I woulda wore a collar

She had this look in her eye, My god you shoulda Saw her

she don't bark, but she likes to bite.

Oh there ain't enough hours in the night.

Oh we rolled, played, we was petting heavy

“It's getting early, can you stay?” said she.

“Can I miss work? I wanna stay.” Thought me

Wanna keep it feeling as it oughta be

I knew I had to leave by morning light…

Aww that ain't nice, naw, that ain't right

So we drew them curtains all up tight

And we never did see the end of that night.

She shook me up till all I saw was white.

Aww tell me, Who needs the daylight?

There just ain't enough hours in the night.

i wish you’d walk over me, physically

mix my body with dirt and concrete

witness me taking my last breath,

be the owner of my last heartbeat

bury me, burn me, eat me

make me nonexistent

let me go, let me finally be free

decide my fate, be my death’s assistant

erase me from this world and every other

be the last one to remember

a memory so sweet,

sweet like the smell of my rotting body

the body that was once so tender

[skyflyhii]

May the Tears Run Down my Smile

Edges of my lips get real heavy

When the flood breaks the levy

Glasses steam like a sauna.

Any new troubles or trauma,

They just add to the pile.

May the tears run down my smile.

The deeper the shit I'm in, The wider my grin.

I've never really lost, but I still can't win.

Gotta keep my head high,

Who else’ll do it but I?

Who else will run that 24th final mile?

With the tears running down my smile.

Aww, let me sniffle whilst I'll give a whistle.

I'll weep and dance till the sun comes up

These emotions are too much, and I can't get enough.

Tell me to come back when I'm better?

Got the story, missed the header.

Oh cause I'm swimming in the silo

Dance the turnstile

turn my dial, goin wild

With a few years to reconcile.

those tears are running, gunnin,

Y'all having fun an’ I'm out sunnin.

Worst and best I've felt in quite a while.

With them tears running down my smile.

Love Locomotive.

Late January I saw it make a stop

I hopped on, not thinkin where I'd get off

Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide.

The brakes broken down, I'm going for a ride

I'm riding that Love Locomotive.

Shocked my core, even low voltage.

The rails were rocky, it wouldn't behave.

An it threw me over the bridge, down beneath the waves.

I'd be casual, caught in those ripping currents

Oh but a terror from the Torah is in these torrents.

a biblical beast before my eyes

Of incredible interstellar size

That lumberin Love Leviathan

Locked in it's jaws again

that's it, I'm dead, I thought I was no more

Till it heaved it's heavy head and spat me to shore.

I landed in a green forest grove

Where a gorgeous creek flowed

Heard a low growl then saw snarled tooth

That's when I recognized that bipedal wolf.

That dumb Love lycanthrope

Got me hanging by my throat

Should I kick and punch and fight?

Or just give in, let it have a bite?

[skyflyhii]

Can anyone actually tell me how to live?

Like I'm tired I've tried figuring it out on my own, but it isn't working. I just wanna rest, I just need to sit down and let someone else lead.

Helpless Hopeless Romantic

I'm a helpless hopeless romantic hollering out my heart

Searching near and far for a brand new start

I've a lingering love long overdue

A knight knocked into fear I forgot I knew

Holding hands, such simple gestures

With heat so intense, a fever festers

Your gaze got me, oh someone stop me

Sight so paralyzing, my mind is static.

Lips like LSD, an it left me an addict

I'm a helpless hopeless romantic, hopped-up, an hardwired

Woke up a wonderer, walled in by wildfire

Ready to rush, red-handed river.

Depths of depression still don't deliver.

Best beautiful blessings I've ever believed

bumbling blunders of blues be bereaved

That's just junk Judas nor Jesus Judges

As nudists know, normality hardly nudges.

I'ma helpless hopeless romantic, hungry and huntin

Is it illegal elating, an eating empty nothin?

Conscience considered calling but it couldn't

sincerely sorry, i sought out something I shouldn't

[skyflyhii]

Can't Stop Consuming

I feel like I'm consuming, far more than I should.

But still I can't stop myself, nothing's worked this good.

Don't keep it in the open, don't keep it trapped beneath

Keep it on the shelf, next to all the lost receipts

I haven't heard a word, not a single guess of a price

On the heads of the men and women bombed in the night

I dunno if I can make it, dunno if I can last

Got blood on your shiny suit, should wash that off fast.

I never wanted to fight your stupid war

You'll kill and kill and kill, before you kill some more

Trapped inside my home, they locked all my doors

So why does it feel like I've never been here before?

I can't stop consuming slop, it's nothin but a crutch

The sugar and the bright lights sooth so much.

Caffeine in my veins, the monster sunk its teeth.

It's ripping up my mind ‘n findin the gold underneath.

[skyflyhii]

Thank ya John prine.

You were here after, yet long before your time.

You came into this life while many were leaving.

There's a couple johns helped me walk the line

First came Cash, second was Prine

Whistle n fished me from the blue sea brine.

The third was a walker, but that's just fine

Listening to Blaze Foley, blazed, foolhardy

I came along to pick up the sound,

That Woody left laying on the ground.

Turns, when I turn to look all around

I ain't the first that sound done found.

Seeger sold me a passion

Guthrie told me the mission

Dylan guides my pen

With Ochs, and Paxton

We're well with Welles

As time will tell

And Evans Fox.

Is all the talks

Good ol Shoulders

Got me feeling bolder

I'm just another country boy.

With simple country joys

I rush headstrong,

trying to make it along

[skyflyhii]

I Hate You/I Love you.

Oh I hate you, so goddamn much,

but I love you, an cant get enough

Oh Lord what did you do to me?

You opened my eyes till i cant see

With burnin fires round my feet

Pickin all the fruit that i cant eat

Wanderin the walmart wasteland

Where ya get yer grace from a garbage can

Fuck I hate you, so goddamn much

Shit I love you, an can’t get enough

God up above please answer my prayer

How can I hurt so much yet still not care?

Imma studying the mystery

Of a fucked up history

All it do is make me sad

Thinking of all the nothin we had

Still I hate you, so goddamn much

Still I love you, jus cant get enough

Oh holy trinity, I ask of thee

Can i know of what i’ll never be?

I feel stuck in funny feelin trance

Still im gonna give love another chance

Dancin with the fear, im oh so scared

Gentlest smile with fangs all bared.

Life was made to get high, jam to yer music of choice and make foot meet floor.
