Big Artist Man

Big artist man, king of my niche
You get one guess who holds the end of my leash
(It was behind your ear)
Everybody shut up shut shut up
Readymades are the ones that drive
the fastest + fastest is the bestest
I like to work in crisis, hurts more
Stimulate old shame from my days of mopping the floor
Project my deepest fears on to my written drones
+ some apostle will eat that role from my hand, ah!
He's of the school of thought
that he's a school of thought
He is a male, he is so sorry
He's a ramrod of sorriness
Roman Polanski Roman Polanski Roman,
Lars, look at me now
Shooting tough scenes with my crew
dropping problems on to you
Slice up eyes until I dies!
I should know I've been hurt before
destroydestroydestroydestroydestroydestroydestroy
I should know I'm a broken boy!

Mower

Wasn't a time when I didn't really mind!
Smiles rolled into feta cheese brine
Is my gut a soup or a stew?
Picking the croutons out of a Romaine hair due
Try not to bide
Try not to find
Try not to hide in a clementine
Jumped off the shell right into the yolk
Twirling around and bound to the fork's soft poke
Born sticky but I usually feel dry
Somewhere along the way the moisture leaks out

Dinner Table Philosophy
07:42

Hamfisted suggestions come to fruition
Antagonizing gatekeeping pedants on comission
Peddling and meddling unsettling w luxury bones
Fall flat on the floor as soon as I come home
Bumping into dream area Chad
who says: "recurrent nature shouldn't be determined
it's not the same as a language"
But it feels so good just to lie here and never ever move
I'll probably never move
You have to logically tell yourself that if you're being
as safe as you can be, then that's safe enough
But unfortunately sometimes it's not, and everything falls apart
It was everything that was needed, when everything was needed
But I can't figure out why I can't figure it out
El Barto after reading The Art of War said:
"Maybe wisdom isn't so stupid after all"
He also said: "eat my shorts" so take it w a grain of salt
or 2 grains or a heap or the whole Sorites paradox
It doesn't matter what you take,
only what you give up
It takes more types than you think
Not all of them, but a few
Give some a break, give the others grief, and give the rest the boot
and even then it doesn't matter...
Most would rather roast than ever bother to look close
You provide the platform, everyone says they're in the know (they're not)
Not knowing, not knowing to know, not knowing to know to know
Not knowing the difference between knowing there's a difference
and knowing difference is CRUX
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Give me a break
Give me a damn
This is so unfun for me
The best I can do is joke back at you and hope it lands
But burning at no visible stake
Resolved to not step on the teeth of the rake
Resolved to not squeeze rancid water from rag
Keep your head in the helmet, Hamlet + the prize is yours
Don't upset the guest (remember what happened)
She threw such a fit after what you did
(Don't upset the guest)
Fist fight + I'll forget, shut me down you know best
Your best behavior is only a fight with me
Portrait of Charles Bukow on the ceiling of your grave
And you won't try
So what is that prize to be had for no noise
When the land you stand on splinters hard trapezoid
+ the work your voice does keeps it mad unemployed
Your fear tank is fueling you, pump those breaks!
------------------------------------------------------------------
Bread + butter, mom + pop issues, the gravy + the meat
Joe Plumber shit, le engine in mi spleen
Beef Wellington keeps me smelling a ton
Stunted shell man rock
Manned into himself
Did you hear? He can't be reached anymore
Spent every couple of days coughing
Saw a discount on coffins
Buy 3 straight from the stockroom
Did I see you window shopping?
In front of Park Ave glass
Looking for a mannequin to ask
If enough meatloaf will clog the gas
If the good times will ever pass
If that guy needs me to kick his ass hahaha
I lose! You win! I concede the beef! I don't want any trouble!
If you're listening to this song right now,
call me and say: "FUCK YOU"
I'll say: "I love you too"
If you need me, I'll be dosing in a ditch
That's the sitch, Mitch!
