Pressed flowers
The wordy win and swoon
while most remain cocooned
ingrained in our veins
to gain and impress
stained I digress
the crone knows that
Pressed flowers still wild
And stress when invested
and loath to feel lonely
yet nevertheless
at arms stretch from the rest
we subject ourselves
isolate, depress
the cusp of banter
with feigned interest
Pressed flowers still wilt
Honed to self-help
stoned till morrow
opportune corridors
hearken darkened paths
Pressed flowers still...

the charade
The Charade
A wealthy man dressed up as a poor guy walked into a bank to see the employees' reaction naturally it was predictable, that the rich man found it upsetting and gave us a lecture that everyone is equal
If the poor guy had a twenty-dollar bill in his pocket if that was true the last thing he would do was go into a bank, the likelihood is he would buy a burger, with chips and drink a few beers, feeling good
When a wealthy person pretends to be poor To put himself as a good guy, he knows nothing about poverty; he can go back to being rich again and the poor...

Seeds Of Doubt
These seeds of doubt
Were planted
Everywhere!
Including
Window boxes
And hanging baskets!
Come the harvest
Doubt had flourished
Resulting in bumper crops
It was later suggested
That there was not one individual
Who didn't feel doubtful
So no-one doubted the seeds of doubt

I was once somebody's someone
nak’dly perch’d on the shore
of a cold bathtub,
heart running wild ..
shifting like a small animal
with breaths
coiled
between syllables
and ( I ) it's stolen prey
reaching for an identity,
a calm violence warms my
throat
starv’d, my fingertips stutter
my skin
…blurr'd braille,
Howling her howls
of a cold bathtub,
heart running wild ..
shifting like a small animal
with breaths
coiled
between syllables
and ( I ) it's stolen prey
reaching for an identity,
a calm violence warms my
throat
starv’d, my fingertips stutter
my skin
…blurr'd braille,
Howling her howls

My dear, can't you see?
You've lived a true Russian life,
A life etched in pain and heartache,
Where sorrow is the constant refrain.
Your love story, tragic and raw,
Would make Tolstoy put down his pen—
For no words could capture
The depths of your justified bitterness.
It’s a grief that makes the world weep,
A bitterness so pure, so deep.
Mei would stumble, lost for words,
Unable to write a book about you,
For how could any story
Do justice to such a life—
A life torn between dreams and loss?
...

the diabetes fraud
The diabetes Fraud
On Der Spiegel today I read that a solution to diabetes had been discovered, the article showed a serious medical staff breaking out
In jubilation, followed by happy patients
The reason it was not made official was because the big pharma would shut it down
Hang on!
I remember having read the same article 5 years ago about a rare plant in Peru that in powder and taken before bed would cure Diabetes
A spoonful of this stuff a day will surely keep Doctors away
The rare plant from a hidden valley in Peru now
In liquid form are costly,...

Walls, sheets, curtains, all white...
In the silence of the night shadows creep.
Whispers of the unknown stir the soul.
A chill descends, fingers cold and thin,
tugging at the edges of sanity.
The walls breathe a pulse within the stone.
Echoes of footsteps, unseen yet near.
Eyes in the darkness, staring, unblinking.
A presence felt, but never seen.
The air grows thick, a suffocating dread.
Heartbeat pounding like a distant drum.
A flicker of light reveals a hollow face.
Fleshless grin, frozen in eternal scream.
Hands reach from the void,...
Whispers of the unknown stir the soul.
A chill descends, fingers cold and thin,
tugging at the edges of sanity.
The walls breathe a pulse within the stone.
Echoes of footsteps, unseen yet near.
Eyes in the darkness, staring, unblinking.
A presence felt, but never seen.
The air grows thick, a suffocating dread.
Heartbeat pounding like a distant drum.
A flicker of light reveals a hollow face.
Fleshless grin, frozen in eternal scream.
Hands reach from the void,...

Checked Out
My mind is a scattered heap of wadded notes
Tossed aside and torn under mindless footsteps.
I cannot find words for all that is trapped inside.
Tossed aside and torn under mindless footsteps.
I cannot find words for all that is trapped inside.

They've been strong
They've been strong
For so long
Father
Also, they have a strong
Character
And also they are
Very proud of themselves
Father
Tell me why they should
Not be proud of themselves
Yes father
You are the one that
Made them
With your holy hands
And you gave them
The gift of life
Also, they are taking good care
Of their lives
And father you are keeping them
Alive every single day
Also, they never once complained
To you about their lives once
Also father you made for them
A sleeping...

Evolution Revolution
It's a dark night
and I'm hanging in air.
Like an eagle being still
anticipating a kill.
But this monster named fear
has his claws sunk into my back.
I need to break them off
it will turn my spirit black.
It's time to move my wings.
Shred into a flaming phoenix
to melt its claws.
Time to glide around mountains and
light up this onyx black sky.
Time to breath in pure fresh air.
I don't want this feeling to die.
I look ahead and see
flashes of silver lightning waiting for me.
Time to challenge myself again ...

Sketch lines
I know we are young
I know we have no idea where we’ll end up
We’re just finding our way
We won’t stay the same
and I don’t want to
neither do you
I am hiding in the minutes, the seconds
that I get to kiss you
Some day will come, when we break up
and I have to miss you
Cause we’ll fight, come undone
Too many bullets in our guns
To stay safe
To stay this way
We are just sketching out the lines
Too much still undefined
So hold me tighter
Than you’ve ever done before
Let’s come closer ...
I know we have no idea where we’ll end up

We won’t stay the same

Some day will come, when we break up

When we remove the negativity
How many of us have felt the vibes of the negativity, that comes into our lives, and felt like there is no escaping, from the deepness of the mind affects as it slowly begins, to drain you and take a hold of us just draining, us of our thoughts and strength. For sure it's necessary to revaluate the situations, that we find ourselves involved WITHIN in our lives. For sure no one is sent to you by chance or accident, 🤔 as that goes for when dealing with a relationship, that has BECOME a negative instead of a positive that can also, have a profound effect on you as well in mind and heart...
