The water's gone cold
and its got me thinkin'
while you walk across the water
I'm always sinkin'.
Perfect world thoughts
leave me pale and dead
We're reading all these books
but we don't know what we just read.
Free from all this hatred
I don't know where it began.
maybe if we look back
we'll see our tracks in the sand.
Redeeming all these vows
makes life a bore
if thank you's were a gift card
you'd be a store.
we were sittin' round
and we were writing a sonnet
missed the fucking lines
and the rhymes weren't on it
So i messed with some ideas
with just a pen and some paper
and as the ink spilled like blood
we all looked to our maker.

This one is actually a song I wrote for a band I was in a while back, I couldn't come up with any new material tonight, so I wussed out and resorted to previous work =P But yea, so that's the deal, I will usually put hot off the press poems on here, but when the juices aren't flowing I'll just resort to old stuff from my millions of notebooks and what not. =]
About Me
- Riley J.
- I'm Riley J., and I am a punk in the most defined sense of the word. I modeled my life after Richard Hell (both with television and with the Voidoids), SLC Punk!, NoFX, Tom Delong, and The Skatalites. I consider myself to be an idealist punk (if you don't know the difference then don't bother asking) and a major activist for gay rights. I express my anger through the words on this blog, and through my voice whenever I can stand up to whomever believes they can oppress the innocent. I hate corporations and government and George Bush. I love to skateboard and play guitar on my sexy Kramer (her name is Jennifer.) uhhh yea anything else you need to know you'll find out from my poetry.
