Telemachus
Thou attained divinity and taught us-
Like my father and Telemachus.
Thou may not be now with us-
Yet feel thou along with us.
Without thou we could not know-
God, The Mother or Odeyssus.
Love thou so much and thy thoughts-
Bless us to rise much above us.
Like my father and Telemachus.
Thou may not be now with us-
Yet feel thou along with us.
Without thou we could not know-
God, The Mother or Odeyssus.
Love thou so much and thy thoughts-
Bless us to rise much above us.

Cannot Change
If one has
No cracks
Where Bitterness
Can hide
Then those
With the technology
Cannot change
Your mind
No cracks
Where Bitterness
Can hide

With the technology

Tale of the Four Legged Bitch
I remember my
brother tried
walking my dog
you'd think
he was getting a
ghost accustomed
to wearing tack
I wasn't there,
but I laughed
seeing the hell
she raised on
our carpet
thinking how
better it all is
ripping new
arseholes
into things,
pissin' on
statues not
worth saving
by tax payers
and shittin'
in a garden
well trimmed
by the local
homophobe,
to not take
shit laying
down, tan ...

Life Is A Struggle
People Today! Oh boy!
There's something happening here...
It's all of us. What is your kink, perversion, addiction or mental illness? Do you cope with alcohol? Drugs? Sex? Are you addicted to food? Do you gamble? Are you afraid? I can go on! You may know what makes you tick or you might spend your entire life trying to figure it out!
A 17 year old shoots up a school!
The model-type young woman with flawless skin has sex on camera with over a 100 guys online on her onlyfans account.
The married female school...

Affirmations
From waning and fire emblazoned skies,
To mornings such as these,
Waking to the cries,
Of fresh snowfall,
laying before our eyes.
In a world where belief,
Inhibits more than it admonishes.
And perspectives lost,
Indentured more than nurtured.
In a near silence,
I quietly reaffirm that,
Anything, is possible.
Upon black wings paused,
And yellow ringed eyes,
Still following.
Anything,
Is..
To mornings such as these,
Waking to the cries,
Of fresh snowfall,
laying before our eyes.
In a world where belief,
Inhibits more than it admonishes.
And perspectives lost,
Indentured more than nurtured.
In a near silence,
I quietly reaffirm that,
Anything, is possible.
Upon black wings paused,
And yellow ringed eyes,
Still following.
Anything,
Is..

Take this pill whatever colour you desire
Have you ever wondered, or have you not the time to wonder,
about the nature of what is reality?
Do you know what society is, I mean really know what society is?
Society is a story we tell ourselves. A fairy tale told to children
This is society's truth, an agreed upon story, consciously retold, slightly rewritten,
then retold again and again. Just as the sun sets, so to the full moon shines.
YOU. I. SELF. We are all data fragments in a simulation, nothing more.
We grasp at the illusion like a child grasps a warm blanket. ...

We All Have Something We Can’t Get Out
the poem unwritten
sticks in your throat
choking you on the unresolved
because they weren’t there
or they were but they never sat write on the page just double entendres filled with classical lies
that taste like bullshit you’d spoon feed
to ass-kissers and cynics
sprinkled with cliches
that fall from your mind as easy
as “sun dappled dew drops”
to clunk lifeless and forlorn
on A4
reeking of posterity and lingering tobacco
smoke on yellow stained fingers
...

Nature and life
Nature breathes us life
spurn its socour, so selfish
hastens our demise
So great its bounty
to abuse it and despise
bind that undermines
Burnt our bridges, crossed
to late, for the amens repost
inadaquacy
Ashes of what could be
paradise, dreams unachieved
our stupidity
spurn its socour, so selfish
hastens our demise
So great its bounty
to abuse it and despise
bind that undermines
Burnt our bridges, crossed
to late, for the amens repost
inadaquacy
Ashes of what could be
paradise, dreams unachieved
our stupidity

Capella Auriga
A quest is never done until you reach the end
That is
The questions may not get answered in this world
And thus, we must formulate and theorize my friends
Whatever waits for us on the other side of the universe
So we compose and create to the best of our abilities
Trying to solve the big mystery that mystifies us all
Letting our imaginations run rampant, wild and free
To the point that it consumes and exhumes our soul
But once fate has decided that our number is up
The veil of innocence lifts and things begin to make sense
It...

Dawn Skin
Dawn skin
Don't wake up, don't wake up but I couldn't sleep -
Instead rose early, head full of fluff,
painted as a blush of sky, pure and soft and new,
got up, stretched, scrambled,
shoes and trousers and jumper and vest,
not in that order,
apple and water and rise times and door key,
four for four, not in that order,
practically ran, as only someone who pulled their knee
and fears it but is excited could, just a skip and a hop from fields
and their plum mouth, their hazy ochre and pink,
a flash of amber and two...
