you can't lose if you've got nothing

draw a circle in the sand
lose everything
in the sun
close your eyes
experience the bright
make meteor showeres
of dust and specks
on the film screen
that is closed eyelids
breathe in the perfumed garden
the salted breeze
the sun kissed skin
lose everything
in the sun
who you are
let go
start over
yes i know
you know
it's a heavy eyelid dream
a cliche
like cheap cologne
sweated in skin
loose drooping clothes
surrender
to dream
a new dream
of total eradication
but in the space between
the words
oh won't you think
of how unimportant
all of this is
lost
in the sun
another fool's errand
to think
to lose everything
in the sun

some day the little prince will come....

step by step
goes only so far
you fall
and it's over
you get back up
ask nothing
maybe no one noticed
apologize
to god
lower your gaze
avoid eye contact
if they see you
they'll know
you've fallen
again
down so low
in a world so high
laughs and spins
outlasts
like a boy
waiting to play ball
after the rain
like a boyhood
that came and went
eat
sleep
drink
again and again
days go by
falling
further and further away
from the point
closer and closer
to the life of your father
again and again
until the point is lost
altogether
