Extinct Think.
What would happen if think became extinct.
I think I'd drink,
2 intercept
The process of think.
I'm aware its not the best way,
2 deal with think,think,think,
And we're on the verge of extinct,
Which ultimately means,
We have 2 think our way,
Outta oblivious, obliteration on earth,
Before its 2 late.
Well,so they say.
What a hedonistic way,
We live 2day.
Then second is
Consumerism.

And So The World Ended.
There once was a mysterious Lady, named"Pearl Macull."
Who,in her beauty,travelled the world,in search of what,
She didn't know.
She just knew,she loved travelling,travelling, the world.
She often,often,travelled alone.
She preferred her own,her own,company.
One day,in the month of June,whilst travelling 2 "The Conflict In The Congo."
She came across an eastern lowland Gorilla,indigenous 2 the country. (The wildlife is Phenomenal),named Daisy.
Pearl felt privileged 2 get so close 2 Daisy,and...

The Voice
The Voice”
I cannot cleanse the dawning of yesterday.
I cannot hold tomorrow at bay.
The hours lay crippled in a sea
Of the fate that now shall be.
I sing without voice to thee.
You hear with such pity.
It is such tears I long for
Lost in the waves that roar.
I yearn to gather their shadows
Within the waters that enclose
The silence of death that I sing
While my roses are blooming—
Ah! Would that I may watch them grow
But there are no flowers where oft I go:
Into yesterday, where all is dead...
I cannot cleanse the dawning of yesterday.
I cannot hold tomorrow at bay.
The hours lay crippled in a sea
Of the fate that now shall be.
I sing without voice to thee.
You hear with such pity.
It is such tears I long for
Lost in the waves that roar.
I yearn to gather their shadows
Within the waters that enclose
The silence of death that I sing
While my roses are blooming—
Ah! Would that I may watch them grow
But there are no flowers where oft I go:
Into yesterday, where all is dead...

ExistingWithinExistence.
You know its hard when you are this way.
People don't wanna be around ya.
You yearn for them 2 stay.
But inevitably,
They run,
Further and further.
But before they run away,
They say.
"God damn,you need 2 take a shower."
And normally you feel very ashamed,
That your smell is pushing
People further and further.

Collaboration
each one is special to me
unique and surprising in different ways
honestly, I'm perfectly fine not doing another
so maybe this can be my farewell
first one I ever did was with my future wife
we were just teens in high school
it was a poem about our struggles with bullying
something we knew much about
"weaving their snide remarks
attacking relentlessly
damaging my mental stability
monsters who look like people
abusive, forgetting the shit things they do
but I never forgot
no, it's like yesterday those...

An air of angst and ease— recycled
It's easy to breath
when you are gone
The air is crisp and clear
away, is the color
of emerald darkness
and unenviable congestion
Sunshine is at it's apex
perhaps in unspoken solidarity
truth is boldly placed
into the hands
of the wearied righteous
Feather-like,
is this air
It feels lighter ...

Next Generation.(We Are All One Connected Explanation).
Is it true,that some people didn't want 2 stand near,or touch,a black person. Cos they were scared that if they did,the black person's colour would rub off on them,and turn them black?" I asked her.
"Is that true?" I asked her.
"Yes." She replied."I wouldn't lie."
My grandmother told me that story,way back.
I've never forgotten it.
My grandmother was a beautiful woman.
6ft tall,slim-- a striking looking woman. ...

Life as a Mental health worker
Complexed mind's ,
Anxiety, schizophrenia and psychosis
To name a few.
Stereotypical diagnosis is crazy,
Because people won't try to understand.
Plagued by voices in their head, constantly pecking away.
Under the exterior they still have emotions , sometimes heightened, confused, not able to understand reality.
Fundamentally cast off by society for being different.
Some having no visitor's for months , years or not at all.
Yes this is my job, and yes we're told don't get attached to the residents.
But how can I not ? When I see the...

From Sun to Moon
From Sun to Moon”
Another day’s sun—a soul to rest,
With each tear, a newborn blessed
Fades from sun to moon, moon to sun
And I wonder—where is a star in everyone?
Where are these spirits wandering here
Without stars in a night of souls so clear?
We have seen the sun rise over the graves.
We have seen the lilies blush upon the waves—
But have we seen flowers? Truly? Have we?
Are there more to these blooms than what we see?
They lie o’er these spirits in their sleep without stars,
A sleep that resembles a slumber like ours...

I'm Write Aren't I. I'm Write! 2 Much Beefburger------
Sweetheart,stop chasing this beefburger guy,
He's not gonna leave his unsuspecting wife.
You're just a side salad,part,of his complex life.
A complex life that he constantly hides and denies.
Sweetheart,this situation just isn't write.
You're in love with an-"In the Closet",
Kinda beefburger guy.
When ur lonely,instead of him stopping by.
He ignores your pleas and cries,and tells u not 2night.
Sweetheart,what will it take 2...

FEAR IS A LIAR
The biggest liar in the world is fear.
Insistent,
it will lead our feet astray
Eviscerating what we held most dear
Till groping in the dark we lose our way.
Then where we once knew love abides but hate,
Civility gives way to the uncouth,
For fear will drive us to a hopeless state
So many, many miles from the truth.
Fear controls you day in and day out.
Fear makes you need to be led Like sheep
Fear makes you believe in things that's not really there,
Fear plays with your mind.
I don't need to be led like a...
