Cal- by: unknown forgotten

I could see in his face that he was cheddared
He was talking about all this soul junk
And lively spirits that dance and drink
Powerful wicked sea serpents and ocean lilies
Fast cars and non-existent technology
I told him to shut the fuck up
And he just glared at me with his cheddared eyes
He just kept on rambling about gods and salt
Relating the two as if they meant something to him
I've never met a man as cheddar as him

Safety Confines- by: unknown forgotten

This gilded brass cage in which I live
Is in the shape of a sphere
I can roll around wherever I want to
But I can't fit through the door

It's bars protect me from the wolves
And their glistening sharp teeth
The wolves protect me also
From people entering the room to take me away

I swear sometimes
That if I get it just right
Huddled in the very center of the orb
I can hear the ocean's roar

Someday I may go there
Or that's what I say
When I leave the fear and open the cage
I will run for the shore

New City In The Future- by: The Angels Of Light

Here, here it is,
the place where you lived.
The place where you rose,
a ghost-
You were mine,
you were mine...
Here, here's where you walked.
Different now,
moonlight and chalk.
Polished white stone,
bruised feet,
shattered bone,
brittle hand of a child-
You were mine,
you were mine...
Raise, raise me up,
up from the ground.
Naked, transposed,
wound like a rose.
Face painted with white,
mouth full of black stone-
You were mine,
you were mine...
Here, here it is,
look at it shine,
pure, polished and white.
Piercing the sky,
new towers of ice,
so lifeless and clean-
You were mine,
you were mine...
I Panicked- by: unknown forgotten

I need to hear something soothing to calm my soul
My heart beats so fast it burns like rubber
I want to take back control
I'm trying so hard so hard
But is beyond my means
It's a terrible game versus time
And it takes too long to win
I just need soothing words to help me rest assured
I know I can win
It's just my heart is beating so fast
The room is filling with smoke

Foot Down- by: unknown forgotten

I stepped on the dictionary
I trodded through the snow
I payed the doorman a visit
I peered out the only window
The alley was all I could see
Down below people were moving
They were walking on the dictionary

-The Salted Gods-
Black Peppered Sinners- by: unknown forgotten

Part I
-Beware the Wrath of the Salted Gods-

All that salt turns to dust
Blowing up in the wind
Freeing our peppery lungs once again
Salt laid on the road to destroy ice
Like it's sprinkled upon dry toast
Salt used in vain that angers the Salted Gods
And tears at their mineral coated throats
Beware the wrath of the Salted Gods
Or so be it you taste pepper for the rest of your life
Shaker caps unscrewed
To dump millions of black grains on the unexpected
To inhale and sneeze the black powder until death

Part II
-Salted Love-

Taste the salt
Flavor your bland foods
Do not salt the earthen world
You question the wonder of salt
Like you never knew it before
Iodized packets torn open
And poured on your soul
It will melt the ice around your heart

Part III
-Repent Peppery Sinners and Be Blessed-

When you eat your pretzels
Do you neglect to thank the Salted Gods?
When you indulge yourself with popcorn
Do you even consider the magic art that makes it's flavor so good?
It is salt! The mineral you have forgot!
Repent peppery sinners
Your sodium filled blood is not yours to own
Turn away from your black peppered ways
And pray to the Salted Gods for forgiveness
And offer up to them an offering of thanks,
sacrifice your baked potato to the delicious white heaven
And cover it with what you first loved
The blessed gift to man that is salt
Do not use just a pinch, but pour freely
Like the Salted Gods have done
And sprinkled their never ending tasty white love on you
Baren Nights- by: unknown forgotten

I have nothing much to say
My dreams have fled
Or else do escape me as of late

I lay down to sleep
The matress soft
These cold sheets
And linger awake

Every speck of light destroyed
Curtains drawn, electronics off
Except the hour of late
Displayed on my clock

Its dim glow throws shadows
They slowly reveal the surroundings to my eyes
My lonely room
This lonely man

My eyes see nothing
My mind revels on
It hunts down my lifes mission
But never receives transmission

At some point I fade off to sleep
I can never remember when
And on the morning I awake
With no dreams remembered

Because as I said
My dreams have fled
Or else do escape me as of late
