"I don't know if you're going to read this or not but, looks like you used your Bandcamp profile recently.......and I've been thinking......your a ***** .....and I never got the chance to tell you. You can ******* off thats fine, its been a couple years and you just completely wrote me off. I understand you may have wrote other people off because they did you wrong, but you wrote me off on judgment alone. I did you no wrong! You deemed me unworthy of your company as if you are somehow the dictator of all social interaction, because you didn't agree with decisions I made about my life. **** move....you could have at least had the decency to say, "Hey, I don't want to hang out with you anymore.....or even speak to you for that matter." It would have ******..... but it wouldn't have been a **** move. plastic blood indeed"




You are one of the most beautiful people I have ever had the pleasure of meeting in my lifetime.
I was a ******* kid back when I knew you man, **** I still am in a lot of ways. The truth is that my father got really upset when he found out you were smoking **** with me in the car and guilted me into not making music with you, and being a stupid kid I handled it as well as I handled everything else. After that it just seemed awkward to try to say hi. I'd figured you either hate me or move on, and either way we both probably had lives to get to.
I'm living in Cleveland now, been here for three years since my father kicked me out after we got into an argument. It ain't bad. For the most part though, I've kind of quit on music. I make a CD here and there and record a song, but I'm just really tired of trying to impress people.
Nah, I still think you're one of the coolest people on the planet, and I did make a **** move, and wasn't even the last in a string of **** moves I'd have done to a lot of people, and I did do to many.
I'm sorry. You made me a better musician, and person, even just by knowing you, and you deserved better than that.

Laughing my *** off because Louis Keys called me a ***** today,
Austin Heath.

i'm going to start a calvary of all the people you've abandoned on your quest for "self-discovery"
a ****** bandcamp demo ep isn't going to make you any less miserable, babe, i can almost promise you that
all the validation in the world isn't going to undo your damage on the people that you left more broken then when you found them
i'm still too scared to talk to your best friend because our common denominator left us high and dry but i'm sure we've both been trying to pick up the pieces in the aftermath of you leaving us
it's been over a year and i'm still reeling from our last conversation because i have always tried to ignore the inevitable
and call me delusional for thinking that maybe it wasn't my fault

Hi all, as I've already said, this isn't a poem, however I think some of my lovely followers might be interested that I released my debut album 'Above the Trees' over the weekend. It features many of the poems I've written on here in its lyrics so I think it counts as postable! I'm rather proud of it. Anyway, if you're interested here's how you can listen:

Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/album/0MKy9TNQ6shPe86V4GLshH
Bandcamp: theidleowl.bandcamp.com
Others: It's everywhere, just search for 'The Idle Owl' on any streaming service etc and look for the 9 song album 'Above the Trees'.

As I'm no longer busy recording and mixing etc I'll be back on the poetry train. Yay. I'm excited.

Cheers,

The Idle Owl :)

a happy monday i think should be a thing
for people who work in the industry
when everything supposedly happens
like concerts and football games
from a Friday through to a Sunday
i think we need our own special
Sabbath to relax from dealing with the public
yesterday afternoon
it was a round of three pints at a grand 9squid or at least
definitely not 10squids in a yellow submarine
subtle talk of space while thinking about the oceans
and the life so well hidden it once
showed us mermen and mermaids talking to us
but i think those creatures left the planet
having discovered something in the seas
and three legs i swear there must have been
another race of creatures who lived us
and showed us not to panic about the ape
and the ****** ape quiet smart Nenderthal Neanderthal
Knee Cup whisper the litany before
the wine soaked                             Gąp    (kaa! kraa! kraa!)
***** gonna kick up a storm and meet
half swedish half chinese chris and we gonna have
a *******
in my *****'s crib and play video games
and talk dialectical magic with a sprinkle of diacritical
criticisms of English...
how many accents
at least two schizophrenics
one american and one swedish
one anglo-slav londoner and a holycross mountains
type
very much not a Masovian more prone to
Lesser Poland the old capital Cracovite
before the Poznan jump up jump we ain't going
out like that...
we ain't going out like that... we ain't going
out like that...
fall to the death at Wembley a pancake fruity i'm guessing
when cigarettes and alcohol came on
and they turned around and jumped
like they did at Poznań
    i think they were once German cities... not really:
not Poznań or Gdańsk...
         definitely Breslau: Wroclaw...
   Work-Claw... like War-Saw
            the Work-Claw and the War-Saw
i think i can take over from the hammer and sickle
because i'm resting on my scythe
and i need like Odin two crows
so i will have me a Work-Claw and a War-Saw...
a meeting of three males
intellectuals
we started playing this sadomasochistic game
with good graphics
like PS5 graphics
Alex the host was going to think of a tag team game
but not quick enough...
we ended playing something more arcade
and that's when i learned of the sample
from the song Trevor Something: into your heart
"Miami" by Jasper Byrne...
i had to ask my Assistant and Agent... travel agent
that is...
about where this song...
that game we played to ease up on talking
not getting too absorbed in the game
quick arcade style gaming for more people
let's huddle... quick changer over of joystick
no one is complaining about not playing a game
quick turn-over...
different dynamic... more chill:
plus the soundtrack and the bright colours
like being children again exposed to cartoons...
three minds are better than two...
my wife is going to **** me for having these
social events
with male friends
because i have male friends
she's going to **** me
i had about 8 pints of Guinness and 35cl of *****
and i ended up with a ******* thought
experiment and psychiatry
i mean 8 pints and on the side
3 cigarettes and in between that i had 2 very slim
micro-dosing on marijuana
and day later listening to Cypress Hill
but the mood can be lifted so easily
when you change the mood
and there was three of us so we weren't going
to watch a ******* movie
maybe if i have my Friday off
but not on a Monday
we're going to have fun having worked the weekend
where people rested
prayed partied or whatever it is they did
at least security and hospitality can take over
going out on a Monday night
and we all chill because there are no ******* around
to bother us
and we can do our worst of drinking and having
fun and being ******* intellectuals and artists...

- what retro video game uses the song "miami"
by jasper byrne
- the retro-style game that features...
    in Hotline Miami (2012)...
that song appears during the level score summary
screens and is part of the iconic hotline miami EP,
which includes "miami' hotline' and voyager"
  lazy with the commas and easier with apostrophes...
get me? one give quote...
     crucial audio cue between gameplay
levels, helping to reinforce the game's neon-soaked,
synthwave aesthetic and retro miami vibe.
released on Bandcamp October 2012.
artist to artist to philosopher
i think: maybe i don't...
one of those anti-Eureka moments...
                           Σκoταδi
(can't be bothered looking for an acute alpha
so have to settle on a the iota with a tittle...
which i don't quiet understand
as per use "ad hoc" over i and j
could have iota and 'ota but then you have
a tail on j and an arm on y vj)

                                     Aτoπα!
(out of place things: atopos Socratos and SS Esse
the question came without a question
first came the answer then the question
but how is that even possible:
at least τίποτα and τίποτε are not out of place:
nothing nothing nothing...
   no-thing grander because it's like the god
of the ego
it's even a pronoun or rather nothing is a god
that came after yahweh
did his culling of the semite gods
but then the arabs replied and journeyed into
the desert with the remains of Baalam and Balaam
the apostrophe is there:
ba''alam
                   and ba'la'am
    
   who then stole from yahweh the H-Particle...
at least one of them... and became Allah...

clothed with a face like War of Warcraft Guldan...
that demonic wrathful cocked
most certainly because so much of Islam
had Gnostic Influences
some much of Islam was influenced by Gnostic
Christianity the Heresy i was a student of
but i felt the arguments were not really worth
having

maybe chris paint my yahweh
i think it is time to have an unofficial picture of the god
he can't be she hiding in the burning bush
and she can't be him
the mouth at the end of an uncircumcised ****
mouth ultra floppy lips i mean
excesses i could compete with if women
were to be circumcised
but you truly can circumcised one ***
and keep the other spared
because i am adamant: if there are genuine health
reasons...
if there are genuine arguments about
not experiencing pleasure from ***
then sure:
but you can also imagine the engagement ring
being like: a man saying:
i'll give up my ******* to just be with one woman...
makes sense then:
but not as a Jewish Birthright or the Kippah...
or the Tonsure or one Buddha two Buddha
same Buddha: but a different Dalai Lama...
