Don't believe everything you think pt3
see and let yourself be seen"
be and let your soul roam free
take a moment
to wander within
without freaking out
when fears, stress and
thoughts of terrible situations
present themselves,
don't resent yourself,
you must sit still and breathe,
don't believe everything you think.

Anonymity Seeks
Anonymity seeks to obscure
what’s made plain in the words
only showing by intent
the many layers of content
safety is the first domain
with excursions to the edge
peeking out from shadow’s realm
with permission to state the mind
even while the masks prevent
perception granted to the perceived
the changing visions of the id
knowing only moment’s blend
the ignorance of the world
is fertile ground for inner quests
proving that obscurity
allows artistic types to truly be.

soul bared into unrelenting night
blue tides sweeping
unapologetic

into the silence of sacred spiral

chrysalis emerging
untouched
and the world brightened

sparks shimmering
teasing newborn eyes
testing wings never before tried

What Happens In My Mind-Rewritten
I figure myself out
Through rhymes and verse
Often times feeling
Like it's a big curse
Expressing myself so plainly
With perfect sense to me
Realizing after that no one
Can see exactly what I see
So here I go again
Trying to write my mind
Hoping you will decipher
The meaning I left behind
Is a poet a poet
If the world doesn't understand
The words I string together
With my broken and bruised hands
Through rhymes and verse
Often times feeling
Like it's a big curse
Expressing myself so plainly
With perfect sense to me
Realizing after that no one
Can see exactly what I see
So here I go again
Trying to write my mind
Hoping you will decipher
The meaning I left behind
Is a poet a poet
If the world doesn't understand
The words I string together
With my broken and bruised hands

impoetency--when one ink goes blind
You can change your world by changing your words....
Remember, death and life are in the power of the tongue.—Joel Osteen
can the poet’s pen lie
even before its ink is dry
can his canvas disguise
truths that are hidden from the wise
will he scribble deceit
that swells with passions underneath
will his spill drown a man
whose puddles small feet cannot span
in a world avowed wild
how can the poet’s tongue be vile
is there no symmetry
to rule his lines of poetry ...

“Good Nights Await: Don’t Be A Plonker, Ronnie”
Drowsy, I slowly come around to see
Jessica shaking me
Was saying, “We’re leaving Northampton
You’re on a bus
and you’ve got your Hot Fuzz dvd
Are you enjoying your magnum?”
David and his phone, he was playing repetitive lines from his ringtone
“Those tits look like they could make a man smile.
Ricky’s apparently back to it again
not them fitting perfectly in my hands
whilst fucking you doggy style.
I’m talking about that poem, Ashes in the Wind.”
After Anna had finished tangling Seden’s hair up
she came...

Formation
Hair short
Uniform creaseless
Shoes gleaming
Faces expressionless
March commanded
Commences seemlessly
Bodies taut
Halting flawlessly
Bugle call
Army assembly
Captain Saluted
Stance motionless
Awaiting orders
Performed dutifully
Trained professionals
Mistakes unlikely
Defending territories
Living dangerously
Lives lost
Drained emotionally
Actions selfless
Hero's unashamedly
Countries proud
Home safely

A Reason for War
Men should not pick fights
they should end them
The pen defends your rights
from all the bad men
War itself is not wrong
it is signed by a pen
Swords are not so strong
as the pen that surrenders them
they should end them
The pen defends your rights
from all the bad men
War itself is not wrong
it is signed by a pen
Swords are not so strong
as the pen that surrenders them

Beware the Poets
Beware the poets spinning lies
evoking truth that most deny
based on words beyond control
of dogma’s rants by public trolls
these denizens that contrive
to ask the public to comply
when sad delusion is a gift
extended to the ignorant
the poet holds the low ground
against barrages from above
still their mantras can impress
upon the lost in their breasts
the lies spun in florid verse
are verity as consequence
when rivals speak with forked tongues
and poets etch ink to axioms.

The last page..
Once again
another journey
through another journal.
Many sloppy spills in this one
but some shine so much brighter
than others..
Not sure if
I call this poetry anymore,
it feels much different
than it did before,
"More visceral
More real"
I've been waiting for it to hit me.
Less forced
Never faked
making my way through
each message in my mind
finding out I'll never capture
the exact feeling/details
emerging from this sacred space
my own personal place ...
