placebo news

if conscience was worth it's measure in time,
i'm sure we'd be on the mark.
if perspective answered the phone when it rings,
i'm sure it would begin to talk.

magnitude would find it's guilt
for hiding in the past.
there unto would change be free
of chains bound to ego and caste.

home, says perspective,
is not in my field.
for home is definite, steel.
home is the songbird
and i am the decoy
when magnitude offers a deal.

Causality Of The Whole

Causality meanders dear (near, that is.)
Though a universe to share is far (from here, that is.)
Yet, self can shatter time (fear, that is.)
And spill instant global tears (cheer, that is.)
Friendly manners float (high, that is)
Like the benefit of kites (by, that is)
A wind carries the love (mine, that is)
Through thick of roars and beats (life, that is)
New chapters thought are scribed (lain, that is)
Halting metal gears in their tracks (page, that is)
It's a shout across the sea (plain, that is)
To circulate foreign wide (range, that is)
For local is the heart inside, there among the whole.
