1. 1Late OnsetLetra

   Irresistible unstoppable
   hemorrhage
   aortic geyser of consonants and vowels
   Splashed across the page

   Late onset, late bloom
   A thought kicks the door
   Bibble babble in my teeth
   Then it's already more
   Bypass the tongue
   Let the fingers run
   What starts as a spark
   Becomes a loaded sun

   I try to hold it down
   It climbs my ribs
   From fog to voltage
   In one hard flick
   A tiny opening
   A sudden light
   Then it takes my wrist
   And writes all night

   Too fast, too bright
   It won't slow down
   (too fast)
   Too loud, too sharp
   All over now
   Late onset
   Late onset
   I am two selves
   In one cracked sound

   Fixation obsession desperation
   Bibble babble leaping to the fingers
   Bypassing tongue and brain

   Irresistible spill
   On the clean white page
   A small-town riot
   In a rib-cage cage
   Consonants race
   Vowels break loose
   Every line I touch
   Turns to something true

   Literary homicide writ
   small across the cellular
   constrained only by the screen size and life

   From fog to high voltage arcing
   medulla to cortex
   Uninterrupted by corpus or awareness

   Abruptly gone into the aether
   from which they oppressed
   Momentary clarity 'tween two selves

   And then it vanishes
   Just as quick
   One blink of fire
   One final click
   I stand there stunned
   With open hands
   A page of ash
   And a pulse that ran

   Too fast, too bright
   It won't slow down
   (too fast)
   Too loud, too sharp
   All over now
   Late onset
   Late onset
   I am two selves
   In one cracked sound

   For a second I see
   The seam in me
   The watcher, the wildfire
   The space between
   Not one, not split
   Just briefly clear
   A nameless hush
   Then it disappears

   Too fast, too bright
   It won't slow down
   (too fast)
   Too loud, too sharp
   All over now
   Late onset
   Late onset
   I am two selves
   In one cracked sound
   Late onset
   Late onset
   Then gone, then gone

2. 2Word SaladLetra

   Word salad
   'Splosive dipthongs
   Furlong fricatives
   Klicks longjohns
   Heavy tongs fathom
   Pathos flyweight
   Angel flight bathos
   Smooth tone?

   Gotta lot going on
   Going on
   What's going on
   Goin' on

   Word salad
   Exploding dribbling
   Dabbling hovering
   Hiding evading
   Malevolent
   Traitorous sounds

   Echoing without meaning
   Throat choking panic
   Smell of smoke
   Stroke melting brain
   Meaning it's there
   Just say it

   Word salad
   Word salad
   Word salad
   Say it, say it, say it

   Find it
   Alliterative
   Phonic snakes
   Slipping away

   From the gnarled
   Grasping hand of fate
   To sit rocking
   In a chair
   Drooling crying

   Without the flipping words
   To say it
   Say it
   Say it

   Mine mind
   Excavate
   Exterminate
   FUCK!

   Word salad
   Word salad
   Word salad
   Say it, say it, say it

   Find it
   Alliterative
   Phonic snakes
   Slipping away

   Gotta lot going on
   Going on
   What's going on
   Goin' on

   Word salad
   In my mouth
   Word salad
   In my chest

   Word salad
   Word salad
   Word salad
   Say it, say it, say it

   Find it
   Alliterative
   Phonic snakes
   Slipping away

   Word salad
   Word salad
   Word salad

3. 3AusenciaLetra

   What is not nothing?
   Even zed is a necessity
   A cipher of such obviousness

   And simultaneous complexity
   How did we survive millennia
   Sin ella, cero?
   Tell me what stays

   Ausencia, ausencia
   What is not nothing?
   Ausencia, ausencia
   Even zed is a necessity
   A cipher of such obviousness
   (so obvious)
   And simultaneous complexity

   How did we survive millennia
   Sin ella, cero?
   To say nothing of Nfr
   That's another bit.

   And if the void has a shape
   It wears a name I know
   A tiny mark, a missing place
   That still won't let me go
   Zero

   Ausencia, ausencia
   What is not nothing?
   Ausencia, ausencia
   Even zed is a necessity
   A cipher of such obviousness
   (so obvious)
   And simultaneous complexity

4. 4Lo que me mataLetra

   Aracne

   María, María
   un tercio del país se llama así,
   pero ninguna teje como vos.
   No arguments won. Every battle lost.
   Pasado, presente, futuro — da igual.
   Agarró la trama y la torció a su antojo.
   Tramposa. Cheater.

   Y dale, otra vez me tiene en jaque la diosa esta.
   No hay cancha donde yo le gane
   ella teje, yo me hago un despelote.
   Trama y urdimbre, y yo, pobre gil,
   enganchado en su telaraña como un mosquito.
   Atenea bordándome la derrota
   con esa sonrisita de costado, la muy viva.

   Y lo peor, lo más hermoso, lo que me mata:

   me deja ganar
   no, mentira, me deja perder, a propósito.
   Y yo, contento, me dejo.
   Atada con un piolín la victoria, y me la regala igual.

   Y dale, otra vez me tiene en jaque la diosa esta.
   No hay cancha donde yo le gane
   ella teje, yo me hago un despelote.
   Hilo, huso, trama y urdimbre,
   y yo, pobre gil, enganchado en la telaraña como un mosquito.
   Atenea bordándome la derrota
   con esa sonrisita de costado, la muy viva.

   Y lo peor, lo más hermoso, lo que me mata:

   me deja ganar
   no, mentira, me deja perder, a propósito.
   Y yo, contento, me dejo.
   Atada con un piolín la victoria, y me la regala igual.

   No arguments can be won.
   Every battle is lost.
   Past, present, future — it matters not.
   She has seized the weft and warped it to her will.
   Cheater — pero mi tramposa,
   la que me teje y me desteje igual.

   Lo peor, lo más hermoso, lo que me mata:

   me deja ganar
   no, mentira, me deja perder, a propósito.
   Y yo, contento, me dejo.
   me deja ganar
   no, mentira, me deja perder, a propósito.
   Atada con un piolín la victoria, y me la regala igual.

   Lo peor…
   lo más hermoso…
   lo que me mata.
   María.

5. 5Adelantado de la PoesíaLetra

   [Intro]
   Adelantado de la Poesía……
   (spoken, flat) Wanker.

   [Verse 1]
   Plundering pacifistic pirate
   Proudly pontificating
   Purple prose
   Preening precious ponce
   Prancing peacock plumage
   Ponderous prattle

   [Pre-Chorus]
   Pompous pilgrim, penniless prince
   Peddling pentameter, pontificating since—
   Since, since…. ever

   [Chorus]
   Adelantado de la Poesía……
   Wanker

   [Verse 2]
   Pilfered pathos, pawned-off pain
   Plundering the pantry of a failing alliterative old man's brain
   Preening in the mirror, who's that prat?
   Plumage all a-quiver — oh.
   Ohhhhhhh
   He's all that.

   [Pre-Chorus]
   Herald of himself, his own advance guard
   Planting flags in puddles, claiming it's hard—
   Hard, hard…. work

   [Chorus]
   Adelantado de la Poesía……
   Wanker

   [Bridge]
   Neruda trembles, Sor Juana sighs
   Cyclops tears streaming from
   His cerulean eye
   Move over, giants — make some space
   For six pence of pamphlet and a punchable face

   [Outro]
   Adelantado de la nunca…
   Herald of nada
   Mírate — look at you
   Adelantado de la Poesía……
   (quieter) …wanker.

   Fair enough, fair, fair enough
   he's definitely all that
   He, heee's all that!

   Adelantado de la Poesía

6. 6Brilliant WomanLetra

   The one for me, most alluring, arousing
   My brilliant woman.
   Smarter than me, quick, a mind
   Fast that pops and sizzles like drops of water on a hot skillet.

   You walk in with your eyebrow quirked
   And the room goes still
   Love the dress, love the hips
   It's the mind that kills

   You read me in one glance
   You know the score
   Every little answer
   Makes me want you more

   You think so quick
   I can barely keep up
   Every word you hit
   Got me feeling that rush

   I love your fire
   Yeah, you light me up
   When you prove me wrong
   I can't get enough

   Smoking hot, hot
   Brilliant woman, hot
   You make my pulse talk
   Smoking hot, hot

   Fast mind, wicked grin
   Got me falling in
   Smoking hot, hot
   Brilliant woman, hot

   You name every star
   In the sky I miss
   You turn a hard thought
   Into a perfect kiss

   I'm leaning in close
   Just to hear you say
   One more genius line
   And I'm gone that way

   You don't try to shine
   Just effortless you pull me near
   Like a match to silk
   A frisson of fear

   You think so quick
   I can barely keep up
   Every word you hit
   Got me feeling that rush

   And I love your fire
   Yeah, you light me up
   When you prove me wrong
   I can't get enough

   Smoking hot, hot
   Brilliant woman, hot
   You make my pulse talk
   Smoking hot, hot

   Fast mind, wicked grin
   Got me falling in
   Smoking hot, hot
   Brilliant woman, hot

   Say it one more time
   Let me hear that brain
   Every little question
   Drives me insane

   You don't just glow
   You make heat rise
   Brain like a scimitar
   And honey in your eyes

   Smoking hot, hot
   Brilliant woman, hot
   You make my pulse talk
   Smoking hot, hot

   Fast mind, wicked grin
   Got me falling in
   Smoking hot, hot
   Brilliant woman, hot

7. 7The Water Runs DeepLetra

   Morning fog 'pon the salty bay
   Evocative and yet a bit
   Oppressive
   It wasn't that I was
   It was, I was, wasn't I?
   Oft burnt away by the sun
   A shroud quickly removed
   By the bright rays

   I would, I could, I should
   I can, I will, I shan't, I shouldn't
   Yet there are those days
   Dim days
   Damp days
   Sounds muffled thought fogged

   It doesn't lift and I wonder
   I wonder, I wonder
   The water runs deep
   The confusion deeper
   It seems
   It seems
   I wonder, I wonder

   Work upon my brow, abreast across my beam
   I wasn't, I shan't, I can't
   The water runs deep, the confusion
   Deeper
   It seems. Ponder.
   Avast- ahoy!
   Words and phrases
   The detritus of a literary life
   Leap, gamble and writhe
   Like barracuda at play

   The flotsam and jetsam of an inquiring mind
   Amorphous notions bob to the surface
   Of cognition in turmoil
   Beset and afroth
   Whitecaps without rhythm
   Tangled. Twisted and tangled

   It doesn't lift and I wonder
   I wonder, I wonder
   The water runs deep
   The confusion deeper
   It seems
   It seems
   I wonder, I wonder

   In my mind
   The motes dance merrily
   Or mauldenly?
   Inward gaze
   Navel gaze
   It seems
   Dimly dancing
   Twisted and tangled

   Shine bright, the beam
   The motes
   They dance
   They can
   They must
   They should
   I shan't
   I could
   I can't
   Dim grows the beam
   Slow the motes dim
   Was I ever
   Bright?

8. 8Midnight DrearyLetra

   Once upon a 3am dreary
   I arose from bed my heart afeary
   Full of dread and anxious
   Something. Something weary
   Once upon a midnight dreary
   I lay akimbo on my couch aweary
   Cast my eyes heavenwards
   And released a fulsome sigh

   2 legged or 4
   Women are never a bore
   Less than efficacious
   Mi amor
   Mi cielo

   Once upon a midnight dreary
   Once upon a midnight dreary
   You walked in like trouble
   And I liked it already
   Roses are red
   Violets are blue
   This isn't the best time to tell you
   But you've got an attitude

   I tried to stay solemn
   Tried to play it cool
   But your grin hit harder
   Than a house cat's rule
   You took my gloom
   And gave it a name
   Now my little disaster
   Wears a softer flame

   2 legged or 4
   Women are never a bore
   Less than efficacious
   Mi amor
   Mi cielo

   Once upon a midnight dreary
   Once upon a midnight dreary
   You walked in like trouble
   And I liked it already
   Roses are red
   Violets are blue
   This isn't the best time to tell you
   But you've got an attitude

   Maybe I should hush now
   Maybe I should flee
   But your sharp little orbit
   Keeps circling me
   So take my bad timing
   Take my panic too
   I came here with a sigh
   I'm leaving here with you

   Once upon a midnight dreary
   Once upon a midnight dreary
   You walked in like trouble
   And I liked it already
   Roses are red
   Violets are blue
   This isn't the best time to tell you
   But you've got an attitude
