Track Name: Forty Dollar Poem
Forty Dollar Poem

Inside a flock of smoking penguins
under the belly of Nashville's Renaissance...Hotel
timesheet signing
next job mining
collecting conversation sounds
I'm mulling around
in silent observation
my stealing telephoto mind
glimpsing the sociology of labor

it's a weird dream state
activities and language
I can barely relate
I can't concentrate
a pack of eight
off to the side
among their Spanish selves

and there and there
and there
all standing two by two
seperate but equal
a quiet pack
a black crew

Tony tells me about Albany
his godamother
his birth story...
He's from Tennessee

management hates themselves
dishes and pitchers
thousands on shelves
these deformed
uneducated
they live in this cell
to me a past and conquered
Hell

Hard water hairdos
stress weighted faces
none of my friends
have witnessed these places

by the luck of the draw
I'm being sent home
four hours pay is set in stone
guaranteed work
though I don't have to stay
sittin now on a bus bench writing down
today

This southland it would appear
in a maranade of freaks
soaked in taurine riddled
energy drinks
though in places its still friendly
soft-spoken and meek
as strange as it seems
familiar wind on my cheeks
I'm glad to be moving back here
in the coming
two weeks

Forty Dollar Poem
Track Name: What More Can I Do
What more can a man do
but wear out his bones
pursuing you
with the fight in his eyes
sinking like a stone
the work of his hands
was never his own

New York's cold white diamond skyline
shines
as the bottle tuns to pour
at a quarter past four
its final drop of wine

her last words to you
you're out of your mind
well it's strange that you're feeling
starring at the ceiling
whaddya mean baby
I feel fine

And these dreams
they are real
one more breath
I must steal
these dreams
they are real
like the vanishing Earth's
magnetic field

New York's cold white diamond skyline
shines
as another round of bills
dares a handful of pills
to finally cross the line
