Concoctions 02:02
it seems to me all that we see is but a dream its a party just pay the fee and let it be life mimics art absorb and embark from where do your thoughts even start if you have the time just swing on by a blessing in disguise

a celestial state above the rain its a place to stay although in vain a full ashtray says dont complain ive gone astray and lost my way ive numbed my cranium through veins a space migration through my highways these sounds vibrate your eardrums today while this ball and chain drives me insane after hours my thoughts are distorted after hours selene is in orbit after hours shes drawn by her horses after hours tie-dying a portrait my anima's design shifting inside where the sunshine lies on the other side her face hides behind the veils of my mind the stars align when she winks at the sky she'll get you high when you decide to die my flask of moonshine sings a lullaby out goes the tide, lets lay back and unwind this is your life, you cant go back and rewind after hours my thoughts are distorted after hours selene is in orbit after hours shes drawn by her horses after hours tie-dying a portrait and im left with my two cents burning this incense and its hard to make sense of it all

Farout 04:02
i dont know where my head is it at in the clouds and underground ive never felt more alone in my life while my vices entice another round i met up with my friends on the outskirts of my mind half of me thinks im losing it but the other half says im fine farout what can i do when im feeling hollow and casting an aura of gloom some might go and drown their sorrows but id rather get high in my room as of late my morals have been losing sight of things i think matter most assessing the decisions of my past lives and wondering just where time will go farout

Thoughts 02:18
further down the rabbit hole of thought loops spiraling and bicycles stuck in my mind, trying to solve whats unsolvable reading the riddle off the rod of my popsicle the flavor’s tropical, rain drop chronicles listening to hendrix and watching these optical illusions, communion, swirl around my room and ask me why i’ve spent the last five years in seclusion for the music, unreleased lucid a psychotic human and surreal student found black-eyed susans in the process of bloomin what is death? her body’s translucent is this another interlude of delusion? i dont booze often but when i do, it’s elysian super fuzz, blood orange pale mixed in with rust i summon demons to chill with just because well this time we discussed the origins of lust to flow with the flux, balancing on the cusp sculpt a horcrux before they suddenly combusted, non attachment. i think ive lost my trust ride the darkside til i can get out of this rut with the tailwind gust camillo moronga dust tuck on aera trucks toesides slides past dusk five bucks says you dont know how to roll a blunt or roll a nose blunt check and keep-a-movin on sorry. my accusations are a bit unjust smoke fills up my lungs like egyptian musk this dutchmaster burnin smooth to the touch a few years back, i was your girl’s secret crush your shadow grows longer while living in a rush take it slow, you know i dont ask for much

Surrealism 03:06
holy fuck finally found time to write poetry about sex, drugs, rock & roll, and some mystery and honestly ive been drowning in my misery the self-induced karma blues, repeating my own history bad decisions hold my reins like veins of blood and my lungs simply love all this bud i puff and im hypnotized by some fucked up seductive smut im trying to fill this hole that’s cut inside my gut and at the end of the day, all i have is myself this world is such a lonely place but there’s some comfort in hell i watch her shift through the shimmering shapes but she makes sure not to show too much of her face i ask her if she’ll explain more of this strange place but she just laughs and sends me back with such grace i borrow some morals from el diablo and jam out to le filles de kilimanjaro my face is warped like pablo picasso im a loner known as surreal desperado and at the end of the day, all i have is myself this world is such a lonely place but i guess ill stick this one out
