By Popular Demand, Art is Back …
Some have requested it
Others wondering where it went
Still others just like it
So without further adieu ….

To The End of The Road
A journey may be seen
as an adventure of a lifetime.
The good times, always welcome.
The bad times, test the strength of the commitment.
If one heart forges onward
and another remains immobile-
where does the path converge
or split?
My thoughts implode from self-chatter.
My heart bleeds from self-doubt.
As a duo, was this only to be a partial trek?
Perhaps this is an unexpected very long dark tunnel
from which we’ll emerge into the light.
Or just maybe, the sky is to remain...
as an adventure of a lifetime.
The good times, always welcome.
The bad times, test the strength of the commitment.
If one heart forges onward
and another remains immobile-
where does the path converge
or split?
My thoughts implode from self-chatter.
My heart bleeds from self-doubt.
As a duo, was this only to be a partial trek?
Perhaps this is an unexpected very long dark tunnel
from which we’ll emerge into the light.
Or just maybe, the sky is to remain...

Don't hide your scars (+Reading)
Take off your clothes,
don't hide your scars
I love them,
you cannot understand
Let's count the mental wounds
Time after time
and again and again
Your body is like a
book of stories,
All cuts are a separate story
I'm tired of arguing
with you because of them,
And there is no need
How much pain have you
suffered with me?
I do not need an answer
You are now like an open book,
And until dawn comes ...
We will not say a word to
each other ... ...
don't hide your scars
I love them,
you cannot understand
Let's count the mental wounds
Time after time
and again and again
Your body is like a
book of stories,
All cuts are a separate story
I'm tired of arguing
with you because of them,
And there is no need
How much pain have you
suffered with me?
I do not need an answer
You are now like an open book,
And until dawn comes ...
We will not say a word to
each other ... ...

I Write My Own Destiny
The midnight sun is out again
The earth below baths in her soft light
The wind brings echoes of a timeless melody
Ancestral music to my heart.
Each star has a story to tell in their gleaming light
A story is told for you, and a story is told for me
Nothing else needs to be said
But if you must, write your thoughts down.
Words unlock the gates of my reserved soul
If you’re patient enough, you can catch a glimpse
Of who I was, who I am, and who I’ll become
Do you dare to venture further?
I often delve within myself ...
The earth below baths in her soft light
The wind brings echoes of a timeless melody
Ancestral music to my heart.
Each star has a story to tell in their gleaming light
A story is told for you, and a story is told for me
Nothing else needs to be said
But if you must, write your thoughts down.
Words unlock the gates of my reserved soul
If you’re patient enough, you can catch a glimpse
Of who I was, who I am, and who I’ll become
Do you dare to venture further?
I often delve within myself ...

LET'S CELEBRATE DESPITE THE WEIGHT
Oh, what the hell!
It's natural!
Let's celebrate
despite the weight
that's descended
and expanded
the hips and ass
of this 'hour glass'
of a figure.
Some may snigger
but it it is my
lived-in body.
I'm what I am;
don't give a damn!
It's natural!
Let's celebrate

Frayed
into the fray with dire outcome
sin today pay on the morrow
death cares not the end
should it be messy and cruel
or be it found in a timely fashion” - Crimsin
From the fray – Shimmering triangles
Spinning in dark anti gravity
Thrust into anti levity
Space, thrust upon
Space man face
in space.

Mementos in 3D
The marks are now barely noticeable,
Where the wounds and hurt once ran deep,
Like phantom limbs they carry a memory,
They tell story that could make anyone weep.
But those scars are not only reminders,
They’re also lessons that I learned to keep,
To value myself and understand true worth,
The errors I try to make sure I won’t repeat.
These souvenirs of wars gauged and waged,
Many of them lost at a cost too grave to count,
They linger on like ghosts of a forgotten time,
Beaten and broken from the deadly account.
Then...

The errors I try to make sure I won’t repeat.

Many of them lost at a cost too grave to count,
They linger on like ghosts of a forgotten time,
Beaten and broken from the deadly account.

Better Luck Next Time
don't look too close
you might get disappointed
no need for put downs
I do that shit enough to myself
but if there is one thing I know is true
it's not over till it's over
and you bet I have some more
pain in me
some more love in me
some more fight in me
and too many falls in me
my drive is special
no one will take that away
when I'm old and broken
I still won't give in
and if anyone wants to question
say my legacy isn't what it is
you're damn right i'll stand up
broken bones and all
just to...

Talking Poetry With Children Of The Rain
Let's escape the past. The past didn't work. All we have is the future, and I'm the one who wrote ‘no future for you.’ Don't let the irony be lost.” John Lydon
i)
There is no butterfly effect
When wings scream clipped.
Waiting for
Sunday morning rain
To grease cracked pavements.
Smell of 10 Woodbines
Sweat from ginnels,
Retreat the pearly dawn drops
Into gutters and hellish drains.
To enchant rows of grey slate rooves.
Pigeons feed on scraps
Of generation memories.
Bellies...

Row
rain's coming down
from self-doubt clouds
stress lightening
flashing all about
got a boat I
row and sew
to stich myself
stop panic bleeding
fastened extra tight
It'll last through the night
got to help you some
so here I come
got to love myself
before you find
someone else
got to love myself
before you love
someone else.
don't wanta make you choose
don't wanta ever loose cause
I belong to you
I belong to you
this boat I ...

stress lightening

got to love myself

Constrepo
speak your words out loud
with trembling voice,
if you must speak at all;
shout formidable subtleties
lest they remain locked within,
never seeing the light of day;
bellow out of turn,
roll over the top of voices
designed to cover your mouth
so that your words never reach
the ears of your intended targets;
sing with all your might,
let your throat carry it all -
your pain, your joy, your laughter -
up to the heavens where
the gods themselves ...
with trembling voice,
if you must speak at all;
shout formidable subtleties
lest they remain locked within,
never seeing the light of day;

sing with all your might,
