The Gravity of Doubt
What thought for life
torments me enough
to keep from flinging
this dismal soul—
gift-wrapped in flesh—
from these towered heights?
The days were swift
and gone.
Fear grips
this would-be stone,
preventing the fall
that the will now fights.
“Blessed is the Lord,”
my heart defends,
what my mind has opposed,
hammering this hesitant,
restless soul with
heavy,
leaden
blows.

“Winter Weddings”
Turned my back;
Promises betrayed.
Vows broken.
Wishing I had stayed.
Decisions made in desperation,
Too late to turn around.
Running from my past,
A path of destruction found.
Blinded by pain.
Stupid became self-destructive:
Searching for death
Proved productive.
Clean is the razors cut;
Clean is the deadly dope.
Consumed in anguish
Killing myself to cope.
The hour soon to strike,
Fate deeply rooted.
Embrace the path,
Every step sure-footed.
Heart in His hands
Saved by His Grace. ...

Turn off Testament
Just needed some sentiment
when I was in my element
The distance are still evident
can feel all the resentment
Brought down in that judgment
downgraded in an instant
my name spelled in an argument
a "turn off" testament
I'm sorry I'm not relevant
I'm sorry I'm not pleasant
I never new what sacrifice meant
untill my heart was ruined
...

Clay Pigeons (Part 3)
Easter egg planted Pineapples
cluster claymore laden poem verse
Trap lines trigger booby detonator
deadlock provoked drown immerse
SS Britanica land mine sunk to shore

Magellan cognition gore circumnavigated

Air-to-air taut pyro nuggets pluck telekinetic
on sonic brain combust ocean splatter curse
Motion vile explosive fragments bang attune
dissect shrapnel pitch out cranial void hurts
Tannerite incendiary gas can trip blasting...

Another Problem Solved
How can I miss you?
When you never go away
Water’s wet sky is blue
Another victim falls prey
Outside in the distance
A stranger lies in wait
Steeped in persistence
Always guarding the gate
When did I get wise?
Is the proper question
As soon as a crow flies
It disregards suggestion
Across from the station
Where young lovers flirt
All over God’s creation
Someone’s slinging dirt
When did you sell it?
And why wasn’t I involved?
Shut up and take a hit
Another...

Fading into Silence
All throughout my skin,
can't scrub off the dirt.
My eyes grow weary;
don’t know if I’m still living.
My soul feels obsolete,
and others can’t perceive
if I’m still breathing.
The sun doesn't warm anymore.
Lies don’t feel the same, not like before.
Nothing is tangible, nothing to grasp,
no control, not past me, not past you.
The construct—a fiber entwined, bound with my existence.
If only it vanished and with it took
the weariness from my heart.
A far cry from my tenet,
living by absolutes, and death is a viable one.

lack of appetite
this is faint-astic
and in-cunt-prehensible
way out of the real cap a city
give some room
to the space extent range
in the scope of a hole sun of a compass
sorry, no pun intended...
die, motherfucker, die.

decision fatigue
Decision fatigue:
it feels like a permanent brain freeze after trying
to inhale too much icecream. Decision making literally hurts, particularly anything open ended.
Small decisions are exhausting but doable.
Hard decisions are panic attack inducing.
The small every day things that everyone else
does feel like looking up at Mt Everest.
Add in depression and anxiety and you've got a
recipe for chaos.
I swore at you in the hardware store
after you tried to bully me into making
a decision I didn't need to...

when does she sleep
when does
she sleep,
when does
she love,
somewhere
between
now and
eternity,
my desires
mean
nothing
to her,
but my
feelings
still cling
to her.

What’s good for the Goose is lost for the Gander
to each temple [Understand] Hertz of its very own
Om chant Meditation seems to be practice
of putting your brain in tranquil aurora vegetative state
