wonderland
in my head the life I've lived
seems magic and whimsy did a flip
a hand pressed flat against a mirror
and now I'm trapped in underland
turns out the Queen of Hearts
is quite the narc and pretty smart
and I was privileged to be raised in her court,
but the wonder dies when children grow up.
I was never enough.
so let's play pretend
that we're best friends
I'll fake a smile
she'll sigh again
I piss her off
when I see right through
the innocent illusion
gazes locked as we circle ...

What I didn't see on TV
If this woman is bald
and that man does braids
stop shitting and join the dance.
The rhythm pulses, bodies move
eyes meet, smiles meet.
In the center of the track the energy grows
arms rise, feet glide,
the sound envelops, the soul is freed.
Every step is a story told
each turn is a moment lived.
Dance unites, transforms and transcends
and in the end we are all one.
Lights flicker, shadows lengthen,
fragmented moments in time,
the harmony of a silent symphony.
Feet that stumble, hearts...
and that man does braids
stop shitting and join the dance.
The rhythm pulses, bodies move
eyes meet, smiles meet.
In the center of the track the energy grows
arms rise, feet glide,
the sound envelops, the soul is freed.
Every step is a story told
each turn is a moment lived.
Dance unites, transforms and transcends
and in the end we are all one.
Lights flicker, shadows lengthen,
fragmented moments in time,
the harmony of a silent symphony.
Feet that stumble, hearts...

Giving Up
I just let it all get away from me
And let the mayhem wash over me
The loss of hope brings a peace of mind
It can't go any more wrong
Don't try to set the course
Or set the record straight
It's going to happen anyway
So sit back and let it take you away
No way to make it right
So don't even try
Get comfy in your chair
And kiss your ass goodbye
The loss of control brings a certain peacefulness
Since it's no longer in your hands
The ship will go where it wants to steer
Enjoy the scenery as it draws near
Remember ...
And let the mayhem wash over me
The loss of hope brings a peace of mind
It can't go any more wrong
Don't try to set the course
Or set the record straight
It's going to happen anyway
So sit back and let it take you away
No way to make it right
So don't even try
Get comfy in your chair
And kiss your ass goodbye
The loss of control brings a certain peacefulness
Since it's no longer in your hands
The ship will go where it wants to steer
Enjoy the scenery as it draws near
Remember ...

Circling Back
Insanity is enchanting, madness, addictive.
Between the lines, the warmth of your smile is enough.
I know I am safe when serenity comes into view as a stray thought.
You are timely to recite my last rites.
I am content, grateful for that.
Comforted.
I watch from above as the words flow forth on the winds of time.
The cosmos is angelic and welcoming.
Traveling into my subconsciousness during my dreams is an adventure.
I become another living being.
I am assertive.
I am aggressive.
I’m a loud mouth.
I’m not...

New Lies ...
The clock strikes twelve, and we raise a glass,
Draped in old habits, cloaked in feeble cheer,
To toast a future built on shaky pasts.
A "new broom sweeps clean" oh, what a farce,
For here we march, the same yet somehow changed,
With fireworks masking all our broken fears.
The air explodes with light, yet silent fears
Lurk close, like shadows in an empty glass.
What truly shifts? What parts of us have changed?
The same old vows, proclaimed with fervent cheer,
Are swept aside as time unveils the farce:
A gleaming path that...
Draped in old habits, cloaked in feeble cheer,
To toast a future built on shaky pasts.
A "new broom sweeps clean" oh, what a farce,
For here we march, the same yet somehow changed,
With fireworks masking all our broken fears.
The air explodes with light, yet silent fears
Lurk close, like shadows in an empty glass.

Are swept aside as time unveils the farce:

Clearly
You clearly don't hold me
In an opinion as high as I to you.
You clearly don't care about me
As much as I do.
Then why is it so hard to accept
And push through?
All you know
Is the surface.
No one pretends
And everything is perfect.
I'm starting to realize
What you did was not okay.
It cut it deep, it can't be fixed
No matter what you say.
I still care immensely
And I know you don't
I hold you so high,
The sky broke.
And everything came crashing down
Throughout the...

Reading the Future in Braille
I cry in my poems
I cried long ago
but all my sins are known
and the scars are healing except
the ones of my making.
I walk in the dark
but read the future in braille
missteps and curses aside
I'm doing just fine
now is all that matters
This place, this time, this now
holds the magic of our lives
and the simple joy
to be ourselves
we have always been free
Do not speak of love
nor talk of the soul
words of hidden chains
say instead ...
We are not blind to each other ...

Don't Walk Back
Don't walk back
Walk forward
If you have to look back
Remember the mountains
Forget the sickly swamp
To spend your nights
Sifting through ash
Searching for answers
Questions of the past
With no end
Until daylight breaks us
From the questioning night
Wake and
Walk forward
Walk forward
If you have to look back
Remember the mountains
Forget the sickly swamp
To spend your nights
Sifting through ash
Searching for answers
Questions of the past
With no end
Until daylight breaks us
From the questioning night
Wake and
Walk forward

None Can Ever Survive On Its Own and Be
Shall I my very ego embrace
And only me see on Earth face!
*****
Could I my heart keep safe and sound
And all the fears of the mind unbound?
Would I cling to a balmy ivory tower
And just feed on the honey of one flower?
Could I detach my Self from any bond
And to dilemmas be able not to respond?
Would my soul blossom into creative art
As oblivious the mind and confined the heart?
*****
Shall I my very ego embrace
And only me see on Earth face!
*****
How would a flower a bee suffice
To spark the music of a bird of...

YOU
You are special
You are unique
You are powerful
You are equipped
You are knowledgeable
You are smart
You are important
You are valuable
You are loved...but,
always remember that
You are alone!
You are unique
You are powerful
You are equipped

You are important
You are valuable
You are loved...but,

This is the end
She doesn’t text,
She leaves me on read.
Back at it again,
I’m the reigning champion of words unsent.
She doesn’t text,
Left on read.
Silence lingers,
Where words are best left unsaid.
She leaves me on read.
Back at it again,
I’m the reigning champion of words unsent.
She doesn’t text,
Left on read.
Silence lingers,
Where words are best left unsaid.

Soon The Time Shall Come
The loops of playtime
threaded through mind
it took just one look
and I was transported
the seduction of your mouth
before turning around
to be entered
It never fails
to provoke a need in me
to feel the energy
of your want
But I can no longer quietly wait
and deny myself
the opportunity
to find it
with another
That time has expired
and this mind must be rewired
I scan the faces sometimes
waiting for that delicious gleam in eye
I haven't seen it in some...
