The Green Classroom
Lying on the soil of the forest
My refuge and my sanctuary
All my senses sharpened
Attentively observing the wildlife
I become a humble student of
All the mysteries of nature
Snail shells, ferns and hexagonal
Honeycombs teach me about
Sacred Geometry
From birds, howling wolves,
Rustling leaves and buzzing insects
I get to know the harmony of music
Nature's circle of
Birth, death and rebirth
Allows me insights in religion
Trees with their strong bonds and
Supportive relationships
Are my...

Dumb Things Narcissists Say # 2
Come to daddy
said the middle aged man
to his senior-citizen pet
the pet looks up
then flopped back down.
The man repeats himself
then says, you know daddy
has a bad leg, like wtf?

Autumn in America
Autumn in America
Operatic Gospels
Are plagiarized from Hebrew legends
To sell Papal Ponzi schemes
To penetrate easter eggs into embryonic misogyny
With the premature TV evangelism of bearded patriarchs
Who preach to death row inmates
On the sanctity of life
And on the streets
Derelict prophets give sermons
To Armani clad business men
On giving alms to the poor
While poets in their garrets
Write sonnets in the autumnal light
Of the American sunset

Blunt Force Pin
those other sites say
I can't fucking use profanity
how in the mother fuck
am I supposed to express
how I'm fucking feeling
when shit heads want to use restraints
this ain't BDSM
but I sure would like to write about it
tying up a slut
then fucking her in the butt
showering her off with piss in the end
is that too much?
I don't fucking know
but I want the freedom to say it
how old are we?
we ain't 8 years old
we're fucking grown ass adults
cursing brings me closer to God
now I have to watch my...

One last thought
I fell in love with words written on paper
when i was really young I spent grade school at Freeman
this is the south end of flint mi
lived around a not yet de-segregated community
it was a lie about those people, or those people taking over the world
that always comes down to the same every time
so here i am deciding whether i publish anymore of these babies of mine
anyways i found Stevie Wonder in the isles of my schools' library
and Woody Guthrie he was up there also books about dogs
books about boys and dogs books about fucking everything...

Freedom to Love
Born into the world with only our souls
and we'll leave this life with only its content
Our naked bodies are complete and whole
with everything we need from beginning to end
Untainted, unbroken, sinfully naive
Our minds and hearts are free of despair
Unconsciously demanding of our own needs
with an awakening desire to receive loving care
We are free to love, but have lost our way
in this world where dreams are crushed by expectation
Expectations of being what others see
when we are already all we need to...

My Opinion On Success
If you
were to ask
me, I
would say that success
means you go to the
great hot spots and date
sexy
maidens like
this one.

Broken wifi
The Wi-Fi is broken!
They broke the Wi-Fi!
Pending downloads.
As it craves for more.
Closed eyes.
Transmission blocked.
Finished.
It is all over!
