Poet Introduction
Nothing is very much real anymore, I feel.. lost as an ancient art, high as a rainbow arc, free as a falling dark star..

Hold on
I sometimes see us
as a sad and ugly species
so stuck in our systems,
causing and experiencing
so much suffering.
But I try to remember that
mostly we are beautiful beings
and our uniqueness is
indisputable..
I think we just forget that we are
members of nature
so divine, so magnificent
so mysterious and mischievous,
we are everything
"multidimensional" deities
we possess and create all the
wonder love and hate,
we've done it all it seems
still to this day
and despite the...

Can't stay gone
Waiting for the words
to walk through,
to emerge from a mind so blurred..
I need to purge on these pages
more often to release any fears or rage
that lingers..
Can't stay gone too long I've realized.
I'm always lured back in again and again,
the urge to pick up thy pen..
I must
Maybe I lust after that next line
too much,
the next word the next rhyme
but nothing worse than wanting to
say something anything without
knowing how to
with a mind so blank.
Creative capabilities crumbling ...

One moment
My head is swimming..
the light and darkness
both dimming.
I'm still seeing
forward and back into eternity..
Each century
one evolving moment
we roam and grow with..
Exploring and expanding
no longer ignoring
or misunderstanding.
The soul demanding
you remain standing through
whatever situation or sensation
surges through
and commences to drain you
cause your essence remains true
even when the mind misconstrues
the multitudes of mysteries and miseries
mystifying thee..

Calm dimension
In my mind I roam
sometimes aimlessly
sometimes shamelessly,
I watch the thoughts and feelings
form and fade
like the breeze and summer shade
or I get caught in the rain,
my monsoon of miseries..
However drear the atmosphere
appears to be,
below the billowing fear
and endless emotions flowing
there lies that "calm dimension"
a place so empty of commotion,
there is stillness
the eternal essence
is very real and near
so clear to me
I see..

Visions persist
In this moment I morph
and the next one
and the one before..
depressing less
trying to love a little more and more
with no resorting to ignoring
the intensity of simply existing
in this essence..
The visions persist
the truth.. in them
you mustn't dismiss
it's for you, this individual testament
so eternally relevant
no matter the circumstance,
they guide you to advance
and groove on in this divine dance..
the ultimate chance
no matter how massive the mess

Another day pt2
God of stars
towering over,
in the misty morning
this mystery hovers above..
Another day
another breath to take
more mistakes to learn from
more wisdom
you may earn some
during this transitional moment
in time and space and mind..
in spirit I yearn to embrace
this change..
change of pace and level of living
more energy and effort
I know I must be giving..
even when my patience and passions
are dwindling and on the decline
I take it as a sign
to take a look
within thyself to see ...

In limbo
I still linger in limbo
most of the time.
Stuck in uncertainty
perpetually unsound..
but the beauty of being
always brings me back around
to see that though it all seems chaotic
and cruelly catastrophic
it's just part of a process..
The rage rises and subsides
just like that
comes and goes,
these emotions flow or build up
so quick with no place to go
so bound to explode..
but before I blow
I begin to slow myself,
before the frustration fills
to leave me ill..
I still my mind and soul ...
most of the time.

Dementia.
Desperate to
Escape
Memory
Eliminated
Never stable
Time blurs
Increasingly irrelevant
Ability to know vanquished
Dementia,
does nothing but dement ya..
how easy it is to lose
control of everything you once knew..
but your essence still remains true
even after the mind is through
and can't keep up no more,
even when the thoughts
loop round and round
and the questions stay the same
with no permanent answer to be found
you see nothing's to blame..
I bet she never could've saw this...

Break free
Still breathing and still grieving,
still seething to break free
from all that I let deceive me.
I've been given another day though,
to grow and live and give however I can
however bland and harrowed I feel,
to learn to stand still when situations
which seem so unreal
begin to take their toll
on an already unstable saddened soul..
only I can release control
to save myself and
escape from this hole I've been
held up in so long again..
still seething to break free
from all that I let deceive me.

True paranoia
His mind was lost in his last days,
his death was swift but not unseen
as his spirit was adrift with
a conscience not so clean..
With a head full of lies
it's no surprise he was
past the point of no return,
no time left to change
no time to learn..
he burned in hell
whilst trudging through this realm
which he left overwhelmed
and defeated by these repeated
delusions and deceptions
leading to his disconnection..
Sadly his downfall and degradation
was his own doing..
destruction is what he was...
his death was swift but not unseen
as his spirit was adrift with
a conscience not so clean..

This droning state
In this droning state
I dwell and can't vacate,
I stay enraged and empty..
emotions inflamed and a plenty,
can't see straight through this turmoil
with my blood boiling
and my moods merging,
I'm indulging in my misery
and the mystery..
My mind is the sky
on a long summer night,
occasionally clear and still with
no motions to make
or thoughts to think..
other times it's tense and the air is thick
with storms swarming
and chaos abounding..
I don't wish to be sounding as if
I dismiss these...

Always near
Too late to know now
what anything's worth
as everything's been unearthed
entirely
and takes its course
chaotically..
despite any remorse on our part..
this space is still here
for anyone left with a spirit to see
and a heart to hear
we know it's always near
even whilst wandering tearfully..
this void now contains all
and all that remains shall fall
back to the supreme source from which
all has spawned..
