KISS ME I’M ENERGY 2018

Always knew

The truth

In my heart

I came

From the stars

Never had to

Prove that shit

I’m the type

To make a decision

Like, if everyone

Is in then I’m out

Opposite options

I’m at odds

With your progress

Based on the

Popular vote

Polarizing properties

Asking the right question

Get the best answer

My name- Just a label to a body

I’m actually unknown

Waiting to be discovered

My empty hands

Holding all of space-

A dark matter

Within the blessing

I need a muse to

Fill the emptiness,

Voidful possession

Possesses my obsession

Best left unsaid

Better enacted, maybe

Interpretive danc-ED

If you got the cheat code

You could Up Up Down it

Best left unpronounced

Please don’t announce it

“KISS ME I’M ENERGY”

Reads the tattoo

on my machine

It’s the vessel if we’re the fuel

Take it to the future unseen

Celebrated differences

Calibrated Relationships

The name of my

Nature is the way

The direction of my path

Paved by the actions

Of the nameless

Predecessors-

Myself in a past life

Under the past light

Of the same stars

That burn bright

Today is a fading mark

What it is is just tomorrow

In the wait, is the world

Ever really real? Are

We ever really the same?
