POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
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..
Split into
See my soul
split into,
see the sorrow see the joy
see the madness see the miracle
of being a being
immersed in realities
both spiritual and physical..
Spirit split into
only to remember it's fused
and will forever fit into
the infinite..
seemingly separate but actually
all present at once
functioning as one
perfectly in tune through chaos
and divine rule..
We be magical tools and vessels
for a cosmic essence to explore through
but we so easily turn into fools
and forget entirely, ...

No time pt2
No time to write
no time to think,
when death drifts through
so swiftly can someone sink
to being on the brink of
breaking down/transforming
especially when the being who passed
was a member of ones family..
Overwhelms the mind
you find yourself to be a mess,
crushed neath the never ending waves
of sorrow and stress..
The chaos consumes
with no normality to ever resume,
everything comes and goes so soon
as the uncertainty ensues
and confuses those not so used to
the bitter truth.. ...

Untitled.........
Where to go from here..
when a path isn't so clear,
in a being and world
flooded with fear..
What's the answer..
when you have no stance to take,
no plans to make
in this land where it all feels
too little too late..
Still we wait
still we hesitate
still we perpetuate our self hate,
losing patience losing purpose
while seemingly at ease on the surface..
These petty and pitiful ploys
perpetrated by ourselves
against ourselves

any opportunity of opening up

Taste of peace
A taste of peace as I embrace
my dis-ease
and this summer heat
raining down on me..
Something about the warmth
which I sense penetrate my being.
For me it heals and reveals
such wonder and power,
a godly force
alot of us I feel take for granted,
the source and sustainer of life
which we wake up to everyday..
so impossibly marvelous..
the more I live
the more mesmerizing it all is,
the deeper the mystery goes,
the more divine each detail feels
even the darker levels of hate and fear

Burning and learning within
I feel the urge
to share my soul,
I have the need to
let myself go..
I burn within
my mind melts down..
I learn within
there's no coming back down...
The urge to purge
all my deepest fears and truths
returns to rush through
and share with you..
but still I stay here with only myself
slowly losing those fears
so now I sit enthralled
and more entranced as I explore
the entrance into ethereal landscapes
beyond mere visualization
or "hallucinations" I assume it's

Members of the mystery
Blessed to exist
blessed to create..
I implore myself to maintain this
state of mind when I find myself
meandering in misery,
it's always important to remember
you're a member of this mystery
manifested in this century
full of chaos and convenience..
full of wonder and power
and dangerous forces
and endless choices
to leave one voiceless,
leaves you feeling lost in this wasteland,
you can't understand
and don't wish to..
You wander this realm
same as all the "others" ...

Sending me soaring
Rain for days..
my soul and skin
misses that heavenly haze
and glare of the sun
I'm so used to shining indefinitely..
Now I crave that supreme light and heat
engulfing my vision
making me feel
complete..
It's where I regularly retreat
to recharge and release
all that eats away at me..
I need it now more than before
because I truly appreciate this force
which I feel flow
through the core of my being,
it burns my blues
with an alluring aura
sending me soaring..

This space pt2
Secluded in this happy space
not to just escape the sad states
but to see if I can settle the intensity
so immensely suffocating..
So in this space
sequestered Neath the skies
I'm free to breathe in the fresh air
and let loose in the breeze..
I release my cares and cease from
creating my own dis-ease.
I've learned nature can nurture,
she helps me heal
my hopelessness disease..
When I'm a broken mess
the beauty and wonder
keeps me from going under..
I wander in my mind and skies

Our realm
Seems this realm which
we've created and watched get weirder
has only made us weaker,
filled us with
hatred and confusion
lying dormant in our psyche,
we don't challenge the illusion
or detect our delusions
driving us to dementedness..
Too often we melt into mental fits
with no ability to get a fucking grip
or sit back in stillness
to quell this very real mess
which keeps chaos circulating
in the cruelest of ways..
hiding in the haze of false hopes
we only pray, love or complain
with dismay at the...

On and on
We're the gods and the monkeys,
the animal and the angel,
demons and the saviors
baffled by our own behavior,
stifled by the screaming silence
we act out in defiance and division,
no interest in alliance
we'd rather remain imprisoned
in our differences and dark decisions..
We're inventive and destructive
with our incentive to improve or neglect
erecting endless things day in day out
no doubt it's dulling
and drones on and on..
We're lovers and we're killers
dreamers creators and "sinners", ...

Sunk in the sand pt2
Wonderful day to just
lie beneath this sun and sky..
My mind remains remains
transfixed
by the power of that omnipotent orb,
by the vastness of the
atmospheric shielding..
It evokes elation and supreme wonder,
it provides a sensation
my psyche cherishes and plunders..
I worship the wild intensity
displayed so divinely,
it seduces my soul
and reminds me it's all magic
nothing to be deemed mundane..
Now I can see anything can be
interesting enough to examine intensely
except maybe the horrors and...

Bathing my being
I'm submerged in the sunlight
with the wind waking me up,
the heat kissing my skin,
bathing my being
in the summer evening sun
for no particular reason
it's all just for fun..
A splendid sight to sync[sink] into
I love and cherish the vibrant views which soothe my soul
and cures my blues
if only momentarily,
I make this magical space
my sanctuary to rest
my wrecked distressed
darkened dull skull deep in turmoil..
