My Many
i got some people living inside me
a host, chorus living voices,
dead never happened to them
imagine being able to touch
hearts and minds of everyone
who had left this world's matter
and entered into the realm of formless spirit
they say i shouldn't, but how can i not
when countless voices want to sing
and myriad hearts and souls
seek the ground like lightening
i will be their earth,
to those in need
of terra firma
water to those desiccated
air to the windless
fire to the unborn
metal to...

Last Dance With April
Here we are!
Last stop for
poets in training
to flex April
muse mojo
While this year
is my first
I’ve been told
it’s my last
I chose a short
hot temper mate
who dislikes
how I poet
Unless today is
my day for
an ultimatum
All of us have to
face our fears
to write stuff down
Big brother‘s pet shop
wants to tell you
what to say and
who’s your shrink
Is it your last
dance with April
is it mine? ...

"Breathtaking/Breath taken"
a search for a high; a relief for the mind; a release from confines; a peace for all "time";
the "bleach" for the "grime" in one's mind; the bottom line; breathtaking that overrides any breath taken device(s)
complex to describe, exactly what that high would be like; if nothing else; that high would be nice....

Only Me
From time to time my confident self hides away,
Recently that's my reality....
Especially today.
Normally I smile more,
My laughs louder and my personality SHINES brighter....
Now me and myself are at war.
Silence is so loud I'm sinking,
Certain thoughts are hounding my thinking.
Tonight I will start to give me my all,
Knock down that barrier wall....
Allow myself to realise that I am worth plenty more.
Goodbye to the negative strings,
Hello to all the positive directions my life brings.
Here I am,
I am me....
I will...
Recently that's my reality....
Especially today.
Normally I smile more,
My laughs louder and my personality SHINES brighter....
Now me and myself are at war.
Silence is so loud I'm sinking,
Certain thoughts are hounding my thinking.
Tonight I will start to give me my all,
Knock down that barrier wall....
Allow myself to realise that I am worth plenty more.
Goodbye to the negative strings,
Hello to all the positive directions my life brings.
Here I am,
I am me....
I will...

7(): I, V, X, L, C, D, M
i couldn't be... more... possibly: well... not possibly more...
aloof...
yes... that's a crumpet of a word...
a scone...
something levereging me to circumstance
myself with: delight: in that it is delightful - it's brimming
with delight...
it's what i want to eat: and by eat: what i can feel...
my... what can i counter eating and feeling with?
perhaps this... taking to thinking is a bit like taking a shit...
perhaps... just perhaps:
i am merely constipated... or rather...
claustrophobic...

She Is Me
She's different in every way imaginable.
Her brightest colour is what others would find dark
Black is her hair
Black is her taste
Black is the material that lathers her with comfort
Sometimes black is her thoughts...
She sees things vivid clear
She has dark nights bright mornings and black days
She's unique
She's herself
Shes distant but close
She's tricky
I love her unconditionally
I love her
Her brightest colour is what others would find dark
Black is her hair
Black is her taste
Black is the material that lathers her with comfort
Sometimes black is her thoughts...
She sees things vivid clear
She has dark nights bright mornings and black days
She's unique
She's herself
Shes distant but close
She's tricky
I love her unconditionally
I love her

Freestyle Verses (Rap)
A lyrical anomaly
An emperical error
Not for mom to see
To spare her from terror
Honestly
I’m on this beat
Like an overlord
on overload
I’ve gone overboard
Like a croakin’ toad
With spoken load
In broken code
I break barriers
Internationally,
Rationally
I’m passionately
Laser-pointed
On the issue
Not chasing paper
Like toilet tissue
Politically, analytically
Literally gone viral
This spiral
Is vital
For evolution
A revolution
A pivotal...
Change the way your...

Fortune Teller
I unveil myself, a new guest,
In her presence of heady Bakoor,
to alight ornate cushions
seeing strung beads come alive.
Was it the weather
I asked the fortune teller,
whose gaze penetrated, saliva
to tastebuds in a new land.
It might have been from an apple,
Gorgeous green and cold.
The start of day in my warm hand
Beginning to sweat.
It gathers, snaking my lifeline.
I rise to meet the intrusion
Of a feathering tongue
In a seduction of sweet cider. ...

Species unleashed (revised)
Crisis,
everyone hooked on devices
and vices,
mankind's not the wisest
or nicest
species unleashed to release
power of mind and soul
and when pressed we're not unstressed
and we all struggle
uniquely suffering..
still praise the ones who transcend
and props
to them for taking a chance
to make an enhancement,
learned to lean alone
against lunacy and loneliness
in which they've grown up in
and through,
though more dark days
are sure to take place as we grow
slowly getting old ..

"fire drill"
thinking back how "hooky" was a "thing"; a thing I've personally never experienced; wasn't a saint, though never had the nerve....
one could only imagine the thrill; the perception of "freedom" as well as consequence it would bring.... thinking about how fabricated life actually is....
imagining a reality where it wouldn't take destruction for "world peace" to be attained; where places like a farm, or beach wouldn't be "for sale"
where finally you could breathe without feeling like less; where there'd be no need for an ego to...
