"prestwood" [based on children with neuroblastoma cancer] [rabbia/rage] This discriminates against everything you/they said contradicts against more than enthusiastic dead endings so impatient to believe that they would be EMPATHETIC [aleatoric music/extemporisation] broke. signature. [affettuoso] reassemble this moment, this movement [agogic] darling, now you can get some sleep here's your favorite pen now you can get some rest [con fuoco] recite: reside by my bedside stay by my side don't leave my side [diminuendo]
"cohesion" [the word rape should not exist] fresh kill of a fake smile your fake smile flirting with disaster heres to the adolescence, the undeveloped... ...and ADHESIVE BANDAGES! [strepitoso/noisy] [minacciando] in this corner of this microcosm [con forza] internal conflicts are rehearsed coerced into thinking that you could defeat this weakness in your knees we need you to protect and keep her [chaleur] warm [tranquillo/played calmly] we need you to keep it safe cause you are our last hope [dolente] taking on the trauma valiance blessed this has never been easy for me these memories will stain me forever motions flood concurrently
"torpid" [commentary on murder in self defense by abused spouses] [atonal intro]lost, so lost, so numb, too numb salt staining whimpers drying my eyes she asks herself: why? [forte] take this with your interference, incoherence and the time will come.... purple bruises (blessed with sweet kisses) always on my guilty concious taken by this heart, never let go, inscincerity stained on me i can hear empty whispers... [sotto voce/whispering]theres nothing left, theres nothing to give theres nothing to take, nothing to forget [fortissimo]...the closer i get, the more i regret (the more i degress) the more i remember.....your promises always broken [lacrimoso] my orange skin shaded by your patience. scratch this from my memory you said so, self-righteous in your thrown you broke me in all of your heartache hanging from your shin after the sex. retracing my every footsteps, freeing myself from your fists
"miscalculated fires" earning memories takes forever even though the calculations always seem self evident. crashing satellites into the Appalachian Mountains! date the occurence! equipped to portray. permission was given. custody offered first. taking into; wounded into...CONSIDERATION! developed arms crossing into paperclip promises... ...who would of ever thought that this would hold up in court? MEMORIES take forever to earn evidence upon calculations to PROMOTE! INSINCERITY indisposed! The greatest plans on display to be too EXPOSED! date the occurence! date til 8, date til 10 date till the occurence. [obbligato outro]
"the uprising" [prelude to Concilium Plebis] the empire crumbles, down falls to its knees (the lower level) subversities redefined collapse the economy (the Plebians cry, "mock the politicians!") subclassifed and divided by commerce & industry we will not SURVIVE this aristocracy if we do not RISE.... above the ashes/ against this aristocracy, inhaling humid odors and flowing desolation I have never seen Rome so enchanting those great mounds of ruin wiped clean of monumental inscriptions 2nd form of reform rebound from .RESIGNATE. dysfunction arguments - separate church & state hydrogen. alpha endocrine projected levels of violence .INSTATE/SUSTAIN. suggested levels balance .RESTATE/REFRAIN. hopelessness versus the Republic's (fashionably late) apologies, remarks made contradict what we say making up the state of national security restriction on breathing, no one is listening. passivists till provoked liar to all the patriots procreate. incubate. the larvae state laid its eggs. lead the way betrayed patriot. die in silence, silently subsiding, slowly forthcoming... Aphrodites radiating smiles from a thousand miles, chances are we got no options. Stances on the steps of the capitol building congressional hearings, politicians emphasizing counter-productive organized riots in progress. we protest these anomic sanctions.
"Concilium Plebis: Collapse of an Aristocratic Empire" facing Roman failure the Tiber river tides tie concealed by guilty faces they hide behind imposters (of Aenas) debating the immobilization of this infrastructure this stucture, unstable and condemned undecided motivations strike out renewed proclomations manipulated conversations sponsored by corporate descisions the fate of failure IS....[codetta] ...in the hands of Paris and is undecided at this time. Tribuna comitia probat judicium post judicium post judicium petens sanitatem servare hanc integram inhumanitatem. [agitato] checks + balances regulating the blackmailed correspondence the corrupt eyes of justice continue to roll back, backing out, passing out anomic sanctions over the counter, counter-reacting underestimated opponents preparations prescribing [crescendo] predictions [coda] persistence is everything precisely the case of this crisis.
"polymethelene" [based on the actions of Nushawn Williams] Spread your legs, let me in, be still Let it settle, let it seap in down to the bone, down to the marrow i've stained you with this infection, this element to your procession of recessing ...of course your course has been set. Oh Romeo, where are thou Romeo? [reply #1 from Marcucio:] he's hanging out [reply #2 from Tybalt:] he's fucking around Oh Romeo, looking for Juliet? is she lucky number seven? spending all your time testing wasting all your time (asking "is he the one?") its true we try to be separate seperate our friends from the naive victims this rumour is the thought that proves us wrong senseless discussions we make so redeeming Romeo your oh so convincing, Romeo you keep on missing the point. make out the crime to be justified.
"the oath" forgetting the past isn't that easy to regret cut your hands on bandages meant to mend forge your honors to your sleeves is this what you meant by "unreconciable differences"? distort the perception, the reception contorted by simultaneous contrast catapult the catalyst over arguments against the Cambrian Period YIELD! HAULT! stay by your side through thick and thin: sick and sin stick to the plans we made, i break. promises we lay to rest in this bed we hold hands resurface with the tension buried in our past tenses, divide your time ! divide your time! RIGHT NOW IS ALL THAT THAT MATTERS! RIGHT NOW IS ALL THAT THAT MATTERS! cut blood with binds you stitch to mend, there's a loose end in the pattern. i pronounced the punctuation. i finished your sentences.
"anchor the catalyst, cripple the truss" [based on the Triangle Shirtwaist Fire of 1911] out of sequence, out of season. self suffucient resistance insufficient. replenish (the agenda) resume your positions! just a catalyst for the system. burn me at the stake, put me on trial. caught in the sights of the crossfire attention pays the deficit to the death of a salesman's redemption resurrects these lost causes, regaining, his losses none the less at any cost to, at any cost to, at any cost to BREAK EVEN! raise the flag! signal the flare! raise the canons in the air! secure your position! prepare to declare you... take offense to the reparations entrusted to us to relieve the oppressions of those in states of distress this clarity is asking for rectification for our community, cleanse our senses and let the system benefit from our empty promises Postulates in regulation, proclaiming “perilous victims!” instigate retaliation, dispel axioms of liberation! Parallel to prosperity, implement “everything’s ok!” Facilitate tenacity, restructure this corporate mutiny! relay the signal to the synapse, the microscopic syntax retract your actions under pretense, premeditated past-tenses action is the enemy of thought*, anticipate the reciprocant inadequate responses call in the code, call in the code!
"shakespeare dialect" [inspired by the Falater case] surface the evidence. betray the innocent. evoke the senses! conviction to resistance! fuck this punctuality, fuck this false reality. fuck the dichotomy. i got to get back to 1997....and what are these clues you speak to me of in catatonic tongues? wrath pride gluttony envy lust greed sloth
"sychonium breach" internal bleeding... please come quick! SEND! THE! AMBULANCE! theres been an accident. your infant is in critical condition, if it comes down to it, save my wife.
"electro-nucleotic conduction integration for bio-electrolyte nervosa mapping" yes this is it this is the place yes its the same (running through for a thousand days) left for dead the plan falls through a deficit in time A CALL TO ARMS!!! reduce! cross-Agency comparisons. meaningless! technical violation. sufficient! considerations benefit. the strict. this is the time! this is the place! this is the day!
"the knife Phaedrus held" just another corpse detachment about under pressure though on a different occasion I asphyxiate fume elimination's checklist I did my walk arounds (to regain conciousness), instructing demonstrated for me. the single-engine having forced potential / the single-engine composition compresses pull ejection seat importance of being comfortable is critical for resource management in an emergency situation clearly astounded at the lack of forward control meaning of every descent evaluate the discussions before debriefing I'm on an altitude and I strive for perfection. / mamed and tragically posed repositioned into an incubation of prose increase the incisions to widen the hemriges incurred from anuerysms clot the superego from therego your process filters the illogic
"Primary Cardiac Sacoma" amiable times hault till we see fit to decease with intent to purge. ... primary cardiac sacoma succombing to your arrest little letters to carry the emphasis of dead air. so polite in smiles we hide behind grinding teeth
"pollination of ashes" [inspired by the novel, Night, by Elie Weisel] Buried in the middle ground built to fall, summer crumbles into Autumn thanx to orange, something meant something WAKE UP SIMON! picture perfect fevers favor best! [allegro] a scorched hymn, effort shown... Junius was wrong and nothing more than a prosecution, a pollination neutral anemia WAKE UP SIMON! picture perfect fevers favor SACRIFICE! [allegro non troppo] lost to treaded waters.

"ascetic reconnaissance" decimate this projection at once. sequencing the conditions to dicepher the precedings parse the quotion! whats the question? any portion that pertains to to continue in this order until we change ancient history {marks made, we make, we remake our marks made} in retrospect you focus on neglecting the negative (its obvious). you have succeeded to lose us in the tranquility of your apathy. consider the repeating attributes of the quotient, offender to the infinite repeating decadence of the senseless degradation expose the computations as we draw closer to the friction in the factions of the fractions of a hypocrisy that has misinterpreted our foreign policies transplant the arrangements conclude your expectations don't make any sudden movement this movement transcends your apathy and provide yourself with ][ the privlige of the thought ][ that we'll unearth this collosal discovery irresponsible and discontent nepitism in the system produces discouragement these weaknesses we portray from under our skin broken glass can't cut these convictions
"laissez-faire" [inspired by the 1968 Paris student riots] Time to transpose our fears into focusing on the shorter stories of calamities at our finger tips we bring to page from pen and ink spare no expense on failed attempts or false accusations death to traitors! deny them passage to cross the (Tigris) river steal the coins off their eyes, deny them their last rights, let them rot by the riverside scatter the ashes, reclaim the momemtum of our privates lives from private eyes leave a trail of ink from the pages we conspired by steal the aspirations from under our feet prepare to be decieved in your sleep yet we still fall victim to this lost cause. your false apologies can't buy you out of your execration irrelevant to these anticlimatic circumstances and as these pages keep turning we keep growing more tired of these stories. step up, Resist! break away, exist! prosecute these affairs that penetrate our defense repose. Reset. Resist. Repose. Reset. Resist! Resist!
"anathema" [a commentary on the investigation of John Gregory] Their provisions have failed. The verdict is in! Unconditional death in contempt with (pareidolia) Recognition to pious legislators that pay in false prophecies Surpassing the fault lines that stop at arbitration, we’re in default as we fall mercy to this treason you’re the reason I can't wash the these scars off with soap and water the expiation of excommunicato prevails under the provision of “…all sin is NOT forgiven” Make | or | break | the occupation of external residences Sartor the disputes left from broken constitutions of promise Severe the binds that tie us to these clergymen who break our bodies in closed caption impressions in the allegory apparently seduced the breath out of the Senators / appropriations, a pawn in the magistrate’s palm Of embraced desecration, perpetuating this plague of, Corruption that begins with coitus interuptus A test to distainment, providence takes president over atonement To what degree do these acts of atrocity forgo our prosecution of exiled sermons [& pejorative phrases] They can’t make this treason of violation retreat into execution on grounds of minor corruption [Corruption begins with the coitus interuptus, cut the heretic’s lies, in a capitol with a capital C for copulation/copulate with the flock, Nothing more than A pawn in the palm of Canon Law] Give the Birth! give the birth! Give birth to!, no chance to circumvent the Discern! Disrupt! Disown your loyalties to the profane sacraments besieged By Patriarchs and patriarchs ordained to prolong the discourse erected providence as a mandate to invade his integrity The tiny sound of a few hundred pianos pounding keeps the tempo
"per se axiom"   as you were. (As we all once were)…with nothing to fear in a time untouched by international conspiracies and scare tactics we smuggle our rights to renounce our governed bodies through crowds of concession authenticate the intentions while scratching at thicker skins to exhume their cores of correlating parts where to begin this confliction of tangled passions caught in sotto voce whispers that mur mur a funeral of truths in moments of lapsed coherency overlapped in the frequencies (of idiosyncracies) we take an aphoristic approach to catch up with phrases we substain to detain our titles and statuses repose this cultural conflict to the idealists and hypocrites that argue to veto remember your purpose to ensue every plausible truth be pursued deciphering our past into present, present these transitions prepare to enlist our refusal to protocol recusant voices call to arm the resurgence (decontaminating the nation’s independence) corrupted by capitalism and the capital gain of overshadowing the proletariats cease to capitulate to these conditions handed down to us from fore fathers who have lost all their goddamn senses we aim for their keystones as we break their quarry of pontification their verdant decisions sway the scales we build to balance validate your authority to exist with every breath you inhale deny these attempts of acquiesce, our true sense of self definition lies in the validation of our triumphs..
