Into the Pit that I Adore
In the silence of night
I discard the dark
Shadows forever weeping
As I wretch my self deeper
A keeper of things long deplored
For I am restless longing for sight
Too dark are the stirrings of my musings
The light seldom visits me here, in the pit of my deliverance
I have bartered more for less
A Faustien scheme even he would be jealous of
In the fugue of tomorrow
I have bore witness to better days
To better ways to kill a cat
The sermon of a sour sacrifice
Holy begotten to my blunder
And still I...
I discard the dark
Shadows forever weeping
As I wretch my self deeper
A keeper of things long deplored
For I am restless longing for sight
Too dark are the stirrings of my musings
The light seldom visits me here, in the pit of my deliverance
I have bartered more for less
A Faustien scheme even he would be jealous of
In the fugue of tomorrow
I have bore witness to better days
To better ways to kill a cat
The sermon of a sour sacrifice
Holy begotten to my blunder
And still I...

JESUS ON PALM SUNDAY
JESUS ON PALM SUNDAY
You rode a donkey, my great Lord !
You are Who rule the sky and land.
All kings rode chariots and top steeds.
You are the Lamb of peerless deeds.
You did not care what they would ride.
You knew Yourself, no need for pride,
that was employed by who felt slight
and their steep horses gave them height.
You are the Son, extremely strong,
with value known among the throng,
no need for worth from those outside
to give You what Your traits supplied.

Senryu - Mind over Mind
Never counted out
by self only deemed worthless
unchain soul's desire
by self only deemed worthless

Beautiful Tonight
I tell her she's beautiful
But she doesn't feel right
She thinks shes ugly
Way deep down inside
If she could only see
What she is to me
I wish there was a way
That I could set her free
When we're together
And I hold her tight
Her true self comes out
Deep in the night
She drops her guard
And lets me come in
I kiss her all over
Eyes closed with a grin
She tells me stories
And the secrets she hides
The dreams she has
And all the little white lies
She wants to...
But she doesn't feel right
She thinks shes ugly
Way deep down inside
If she could only see
What she is to me
I wish there was a way
That I could set her free
When we're together
And I hold her tight
Her true self comes out
Deep in the night
She drops her guard
And lets me come in
I kiss her all over
Eyes closed with a grin
She tells me stories
And the secrets she hides
The dreams she has
And all the little white lies
She wants to...

Control Key Guarantee
No Captivity , Positivity , Relativity
Creativity Receptivity Thus Reactivity
I Got Sensitivity To Superconductivity ,
Mind Expansivity Due To Hyperactivity
And You Want Me To Contemplate Fate
All Just Because Some Fools Rules Relate
To A State Satiate By Sensate Success Rate
That's Dead Weight Leading To A Check Mate
And Then You Imply My Eye Does Not See
Directly In Front Of Me A Would Be Nobody
Can't Even Pass Third Degree Of Idiosyncrasy
You May Make Inquiry...

YES/NO/I DONT KNOW
Lately,
Not sure, I don't know.
Wait,
Ya I do, I know
Hold on,
I'm confused, can't choose
Why all the contradiction,
Who am I? I thought I knew me,
Turns out theres not one but two persons,
Which ones Dylan, fighting for control,
All day the two voices yell and scream.
I'm an asshole a nice hyoocrite,
Don't ever ask things of me, you'll leave lost,
Not closer, but farther from right and truth.
The two personalities in battle for a voice,
Help me, what is me, I'm losing grip,
Or don't it's up to you, I can't...
Not sure, I don't know.
Wait,

lacing up the boots
apparently it's a scientific fact
this hunk of rock continues to spin on its axis
without pause
and once again I'm thrown back
here at the anniversary of what was
staring into the eyes of lurkers in the dark
glaring
unblinking
waiting for me to flinch
hoping I'll cower in the shadows of my perpetual haunting
pale & quivering
naked flesh pressed against shrapnel-lined bark
frozen
too frightened to move
letting it pierce & lacerate my being
giving it power
just as I've always done
but this morning I...

Identify
Some claim to be the Prophet but I am
The Prophecy
Three hundred and sixty degrees of Cosmic Solar Energy
Rotating constantly
Is the Aura
That surrounds the body
Surreal force field emits flares that deflect hell’s artillery shells
From penetrating the Power Core
Swore an Oath
To protect the last bastion of Spiritual Independence left on this continent
Until the Heavens find a replacement
There is no rest and relaxation from my given mission
So I dig in
Cerebral weapon cocked and loaded
Hair triggered
Without...

SELF REFLECTION OF SELF
It is definitely necessary to leave the nonsense behind you, and not lower your standards of dealing with someone. For it takes to much energy away from you to have negativity, within your own thoughts cause someone haven't the slightest bit of idea how give and take truly works. When others chose to be childish and immature for let them do them, for with each encounter in this cycle known as life. You will come surely across some folks that really aren't worth, the effort nor the time as that is just the way it is with them. For we each have our own destiny and our own chains of thoughts,...

Parasitic
Our life's
our sorrows
that have yet
to breath
always begins
in our head
within
Formed within thoughts
that slowly spreads
desertification
within our neural net
our vocation broken
twisted
by hindsights
bitter regret
not reading the signs
that were painted
ten feet tall
on those crumbling walls
that used to run along
our borders of intent
where self evidence
once stood proud
Until the day
we joined the herd
the day we believed
the whispering
from...

Lies
We all lie to ourselves.
And we know it too.
"I'm ugly."
"No one could ever love me."
"I would be better off dead."
"No one would miss me."
We know that it isn't true what we tell ourselves. It's a coping method that never works.
People have died. Or rather, killed themselves.
Be kinder, and don't lie to yourself.
You're loved and respected more than you know.
If you were gone, wouldn't you think that all the people whose hearts you touched would miss you?
A wise man told me once that the worst feeling after they kill themsleves is...
