Many thanks :)  

 

Eggshell skins of bullies
Tummies filled with bile
Spewing out the acid
Like the mosquitoes on the nile.

Taste bloodshed of your victims
In sanguine moods you drown
Those enzymes in your spittle
That hunt your victims down

Bones and flesh are naked
Beauty is defamed
Your intricate annihilation
Our innocence is framed

Your face is fat with envy
Your eyes won’t make connect
I am seeing dream’s are dying
In the life that you neglect

And you hawk across the patio
Playing roles wrapped in one
You swoop two taloned razors
Rip the darkness from sun

Playing part time ex-messiahs
On weekends when it suits
Quoting sacraments and pretty words
As I dig beneath your roots.

I sneak up on the pulpit
Made from scissors and broke glass
To view slaughter innocence and crucifix
But I know this too shall pass

And you’ve hijacked our spirits
Spilling pity cross the room
Slashing flesh until it weeps aloud
Then retreat to Judas’s tomb

But the council locks it’s gates
Your judgement day has come
The angels will have no mercy
And God now wears a gun

preface – I feel like these words are just like Tetris blocks falling from my mind.

Hmmm what odd and strange images I’ve been hibernating inside !

The Gravity of Glue 

 

I fell into a pot of glue today.

Thick like tar it wove itself around my limbs

Strangling the breath from my soul

My spirit went to sleep

Escaping in dormancy, from the coldness of the world

 

I fell into a pot of glue today.

It’s bitter smell stung my nostrils

The bile of a town that doesn’t care

The fumes of a society that expels the misfit

And replaces the space with soft noise

 

I fell into a pot of glue today

I struggled for a while as the adhesive pulled on my skin

I fought like a warrior, I punched for my life

But the glue sucked me in 

Inhaling with lust

Like the great stinking breath of a pillaging giant

 

I fell into a pot of glue tonight

It held me tight and sung a lullaby 

It’s voice like the undertow of a broken ocean

It was lonely and dull

I felt it’s dark heart beat like a sad old engine

Tumbling, turgid and more vulnerable than birth 

 

 

I fell into a pot of glue tonight

Like a venus fly trap it wooed me

Into it’s succulent lair.

But time has taught me well this  dance of deceit 

I have learned to sink

Find the trap-door at the bottom

I have learned to pick locks 

I have become cunning in dying

 

I fell into a pot of glue tonight

And I spoke in it’s ear

It wept with despair and 

Begged me to leave

Secrets discovered I am no longer game

It spat me back out and blinded itself

 

But walk not I , like the victor and champion 

For these lessons are but blades slicing canker from profits

Leave me cleansed and reduced 

to a humble 

Believer

Happy Thanksgiving 

 

just after midnight we found a chair for our apartment / rehearsal space. The old pleather seat was sitting by the dumpster just waiting for a new home. It’s our first bit of furniture. We normally sit on the ground or on two old beanbags. Now we can drink tea like civilized humans and sit comfortably when writing new songs.

Hi there,

Introducing our new guitar player – Princess Bambi Monroe.

and here’s my bands new album funding project. 
https://www.sellaband.com/en/projects/civilizedtearsmusic

and Facebook page 
https://www.facebook.com/CivilizedTearsMusic

Hope you’ll take a second to check it out.

Thank you :)

It’s been a fairly successful first day on our new Album Funding Launch on Sellaband.

6 investors and we’re number one on the weekly charts :) all in first 24 hours.

It’s only the tip of the tip of the iceberg, however. It’s a big target to aim for but if we pull this off it’s going

to fund an album of songs that are just bursting to be recorded.

Also it will fund a mini European , UK and USA tour which is something we’ve never done before.

Here’s to dreaming :)   https://www.sellaband.com/en/projects/civilizedtearsmusic 

Thanks to the crew in Berlin
