Quotes by Eric Cockrell

emptying the old
woman's bedpan...
sunlight sifting

through dirty blinds.
the cough of the clock,

to treat me as a non-person.

led by goats over the cliff
into the abyss of their pockets?

let us be men!
their greed be damned!

will be god...

speaking whatever language...
act as if you know!

to occupy...
means simply to fill
the hollowed out body
with a living, breathing soul!

nor for anyone to be mine!
original sounds in a sea of sounds,
all composing silence!

seen from different vantage points!
neither is finite...
neither beginning, nor end!

someone dies in a far off land...
and i become more guilty,
under the weight of their lies...

this whole religion thing
is starting to annoy me...

in the mirror and see me,
or you dont know me!

sensual,
words spoken truth.
taste like rain.
sexual,
the spirit hunts,
for thoughts that undress,
and feeling's true touch!
