Unwilling To Conform
Burning the candle at both ends
Constantly being spread razor thin
Running sprints never marathons
Some races weren’t meant to win
Taking risks in this constant game
Doubling down on chaos tomorrow
Breaking free from a stagnant view
That bankrupts all those who follow
Driving communication to the brink
Navigating through this angry storm
Nothing ever bothers the status-quo
Except all of us unwilling to conform
Constantly being spread razor thin
Running sprints never marathons
Some races weren’t meant to win
Taking risks in this constant game
Doubling down on chaos tomorrow
Breaking free from a stagnant view
That bankrupts all those who follow
Driving communication to the brink
Navigating through this angry storm
Nothing ever bothers the status-quo
Except all of us unwilling to conform

lies and fiction
sensational painful hurt
keen in metaphors and slam the door
on all double talkers
cruelty is its own master
the divinity of the flesh causes distrust
you eat lust and dust
dangling a pretty carrot
will you also eat from a liar's breast
instinctual education I was your love
disappearing memories I see the sky alone
and a sun that burns
you can only reach so high
before the clouds dissipate
and your imaginary dinosaurs disappear
with a light wind
leaning on my kindness
is it folly to think it...

Taxonomy
You correctly identified me.
You showed you
weren’t afraid to
lose me
lose us.
And you showed
what I am,
who I am to you.
* * *
I agree.
* * *
I fucking agree.
I am nothing.
and nobody
of importance
You showed you
weren’t afraid to
lose me
lose us.
And you showed

who I am to you.

In search of inner peace
Through this subject of the course of our lives, when we have to learn to make real life decisions. FOR sure it's gonna be hard, yet it's necessary to understand what it will take to be able to achieve, that what is necessary to have that kind of life. THAT you crave and want and need, to sustain a beautiful quality of life. For sure there will be moments in your life, that you yourself will have to question yourself to realize, that there will be things outside of your own control, as you have to be able to understand the realistically. WHAT you will have to do to correct your own...

-USTING
Your aggressive thrusting,
making no adjusting,
outworking your lusting
until you were busting,
betrayed all my trusting.
making no adjusting,
outworking your lusting
until you were busting,
betrayed all my trusting.

There's Nothing Wrong with a Good Affair
Affairs are great
Cheating, an art
Could dress this up
But it is what it is
What it isn't either
Look ..
Attraction happens
Sometimes you're looking
Or else it finds you
Whatever the case
Mind your business
One rule only
DON'T GET CAUGHT
Could dress this up too
Choose not to
Full Stop

choker
Poetry died
the day you left me:
you robbed me of
all my beautiful words
and lavished them
on some pretty girl.
You decorated her
with the stolen verses
that my heart
had sung for you.
Now all I do is paint-
paint myself with tears;
even the color is pale-
artless work on a broken canvas.
Why don't you take away
my pearly tear drops:
string them together
to make a choker;
a souvenir-
to gift her
when you choke her heart too!

Breaking Confidence
Breaking Confidence
I trusted in an old friend in some casual conversation
Understanding certain things are said in confidence
When I say “entre nous” I really mean it stays between us
It should be a pact to be honored with vigilance
And when I heard my words being echoed months later
From a different person and from a different city
I put the pieces to that puzzle when I made the connection
I felt betrayed and I all thought was “what a pity”
I felt hurt that the very thing I didn’t want to be divulged
Ran through the ears of...

Surviving The Storm
you were a dervish of unintelligible words
and projectiles
from the moment I stepped through the door
a tornado of frenzy
your allure hiding nervous disorders
as if you’re waiting for me to blow up
the world
scamper off into the night to leave
you scraping through desolation and rubble
like last time
the time before
I understand
so I let the plate you threw hit me
leaving a spray of ceramic and
a trickle of red to run down my cheek
as a mockery of tears
the shaker hit my shoulder
then the wall...
