In The Hereafter
Write a better world with lovely words
Don’t listen to negative songs of sorrow
Empty souls will fall on wicked swords
Hope stirs in a wind that holds tomorrow
Listen to the voice inside this old heart
Still taking comfort in this familiar beat
Believing that our lives could imitate art
There is no surrender we won’t retreat
As long as breath fills these aging lungs
Beneath the tears remains bright laughter
Hate’s never uttered by creative tongues
Bringing about real change in the hereafter
...

A few thoughts
Fragmented words creep into my dictionary
How can I make you understand?
The dissatisfaction of your own hide
Thoughts of my poetry skinning you alive
If every point had a reason
Then every word would have a meaning
I'll lure you in, since your intrigued
Finding the right word, causes such fatigue
No one's worth it in the long run
Everyone is out for themselves
We continue to create, articulate and construct
For those who enjoy, thanks for giving two fucks!

expelled
dwindling in the nether region
a realm of hell in which I burn in
hoping to rise
I call out give me voice
In raptured silence do plead
My need is great
sickened hope my grievous error
a platform to jump from
sending my words careening
at light speed through the word jungle
Confusing thoughts assault me
Just shut up and let it be
mimed and mimicked despair
Even the angels heckle my sorrow
jesting for the hell of it
laying odds I won't make the cut
inside my hellish world
is the anxiety...

Stretches across borderlines
How did we get here in this moment in time when the good shall verses the evil forces, that are hell bent willing to destroy this country, over power and corruption something that has no weight when it's about human life. BUT yet it will leave behind, trails of blood stains that stretches, for miles across our borderlines. But instead we are going through some rough times. 😭 THAT by the grace of God Almighty a blessing is on the horizon, that will bring the world. 🌎 Back from the belly of the war hogs setting the stages for world war 3 😠 But instead it comes as a...

Darkness vs Light
I do not believe there is only just light or just darkness in us
Please just sit still and listen without fuss
I believe in the duality, just wait and see
I will try my best to explain, in a moment or three
I will explain it in my own way
It will not be innocent in the way I convey
Darkness is cold, it has been said
I let the concept ruminate in my head
The light is warmth, it invites you in
Very deceptive, let me begin
Darkness is the sand that we walk upon
The light is the waves it rolls on
It pummels the sand...
Please just sit still and listen without fuss

The Thick of It
Half-way through
In the thick of it
My minds races with energy and endless possibilities
I don’t want it to end
But all good things eventually…
I lost a full night of sleep
Thinking the worst
Preparing for the expected and inevitable
But it’s not the time yet
I don’t want it to end
My heart stops for a while
Pondering carefully
Knowing deep down inside it’s going to be alright
We’re in the thick of it
But it’s not time yet

I TAKE YOU TO THE BRINK
I take you to the brink
reading spills of my ink.
that slowly warm your blood,
make you forget you're nudd.
Going through the playlist,
soon you will not resist
the offer of my arms,
letting me kiss your charms.
Then we will re-enact,
fiction will become fact,
when what I have described
within you is inscribed.
Then you will sure thank me
for satisfyingly
bringing my words to life
between husband and wife.
reading spills of my ink.
that slowly warm your blood,
make you forget you're nudd.

soon you will not resist

letting me kiss your charms.
Then we will re-enact,
fiction will become fact,
when what I have described

Then you will sure thank me
for satisfyingly
bringing my words to life

about the writing
process in here
& how it goes
it usually starts
with music a pic
and concept or
favorite quote
words on paper
left to simmer for
a couple of days
at times weeks
adding pieces &
deleting bits next
is over and over
finetuning lines
it's a nightmare
a perfectionist to
the core the bar
is set high and
the control freak
doesn't make any
concessions to the
content, format & flow

con-verse-ly complex
the waves of these waters cresting white
caught in the beauty of rising tide
cascade
we are more than our nocturnal wandering
more than our creaking bones
more than the blood singing through our veins
we are ancient new-borns
eyes barely open on a new day
new dawn
& we wander these moonlit paths
beasts seeking sanctuary
succor & tranquility
with thunder rumbling through our souls
lightning flaring from hungry tongues
calling through rivers & streams
kindred spirit beckoning home ...
caught in the beauty of rising tide

we are more than our nocturnal wandering
more than our creaking bones
more than the blood singing through our veins
