racing intelligence
consumed discussion
addiction discovery
platonic friendship

carl

where is the flame?
was it only illusion
projected on the wall?
where did you go?

insignificance hurts
     a double edged sword
lonely reminders
     a past relationship
          disappears

the cigarette is out
i should want another
now i will just quit
forget the reason why

carl

why must it be this way?
why must it hurt this way?
why must it end this way?

religion and politics
metaphysic thought tricks
can we pick up the sticks
without disturbing others?

bumped someone on the sidewalk
excuse me
ignored the contact

turning around
i see nothing
thinking back
i remember nothing

carl

i found god recently
he hid where you said
i have you to thank
but you're not here

i never understood the tones
i never saw the signs

forsaken for another
forgotten as another
what happeend to my brother?

a token passed
a form of goodbye

did we ever say hello?
did you just say something?
perhaps just echoes that wind
time doesn't allow for rewind

carl

left alone among so many
i married another and
your presence was missed
i feel dismissed

i cannot hate you
i cannot love you
i don't know you
how can i cry for you?

soon i will forget

she's there now
holds me close
enfolds me in her love
along with heavens above

there's something missing
the canvas is too white
all the signs point to
everything all right

carl

old habits still exist
playing solitare by the phone
cards are missing
i need a new deck
perhaps next week

the days pass slowly
the weeks pass quicker
how many years have passed?
replace the calendars

sometimes i feel empty
blame it on the scenery
i have everything i need
i forget things i perceived
i forget...

carl
