there's no mop bucket available
There are days when compassion
rolls like condensation down the windows
and pools on the floor
with no one to lovingly mop it up
and tell it there's a better days ahead
You lost your temper again today
over something small and stupid
it's shadow the size of a mountain
and I ignored your distress
because like the boy who cried wolf
the sounds of your emotions snapping
have lost legitimate meaning
I lost my temper again today
over old things, lost things
things that happened to a different me
in a...

People hey
People say....
This and that without thinking straight.
People chase....
effortfully till they meet dismay
People crave
For more than need-to-be-take
Then people play
and pray.....
for fun-filled days... and creamy cakes
People late....
Always wanna be on time; please don't keep em wait
People wake.
Quit dreaming great while still awake
People stake
Their heart for miragelike castle in Spain
And next, people create.... this messy space....
For their desire to proliferate
Without realising...
This and that without thinking straight.
People chase....
effortfully till they meet dismay
People crave
For more than need-to-be-take
Then people play
and pray.....
for fun-filled days... and creamy cakes
People late....
Always wanna be on time; please don't keep em wait
People wake.
Quit dreaming great while still awake
People stake
Their heart for miragelike castle in Spain
And next, people create.... this messy space....
For their desire to proliferate
Without realising...

Fight like Gods
A mutual showed
me your picture
without consent
I couldn't help
seeing the rage
hidden inside
scorched desert
running down
half of your
red hair,
instanty taken
back to the day
when it poured
down with rain
hitting each leaf
before it finally
touched the soil
where we didn't
fight like men
nor women
or even like
human beings
we fight like gods,
your asteroid

triads into my ...

I Should Have A Warning Label
A hot-plated branding iron prodded his chest,
I repulsively marked him with the beast.
Rope keeps sawing his wrists and ankles,
I cackled as I let the rats out to feast.
Razor sharp teeth pricked his raw flesh
as I dashed salt upon his wounds.
His legs flung in the air, he let out a scream,
but I have him trapped in this iron womb.
I start to reach for my black sewing scissors
and began to cut the garment from his groin.
He flinched as he saw me inch toward his skin,
I plucked his manhood into fresh tenderloin.

Ice Scraper....
The little things of life,
are the Mosaic of Eternity.
Crookedly laid, obliquely marked.
Random puzzles are roughly fitted.
Eternal truths look like dogmas.
It will endure and sweeten, or else.
There is a time for every moment.
Everything that is not given will become desires.
Puzzles will be put together with gravestones.
The little things of life hold the pieces together.
Someone with a rose, someone with a club.
Crookedness is straightened, truth is crooked,
and in Eternity they will draw closer -
to each other by signs of...

DO YOU WANT IT, DO YOU NEED IT
WHEN will you know that you will have a wonderful, thought of the romantic kind with a SENSE, of the most wonderful feelings. As it comes from that kindred spirit that flows from this figure that stands before your eyes. 👁️👁️ Yet THROUGH process of someone else mind. Reaching into the very deepness of your BODY AND SOUL, and then you will know as you will understand.That there is a difference between what you think, you have and when you have nothing, but the hurt and the fact that it will always be, deeply rooted in the process of the illusions. THAT you were...

Syl (with original Patois quotations)
Chapter 1
Family and Friends
A short slim man built a shanty in a squatter settlement near the fishing village in Greenwich Farm. He lived there with his girlfriend and his two little daughters. His name was Sylvester and everybody called him Syl for short. He also had an illegitimate son who lived with his mother in the country. Syl was a street vender. He had an old wooden stall on a sidewalk downtown and he sold a variety of items.
Fishing was Syl’s main hobby. He had two close friend Ronny and Arnold who used to go fishing with him....

Unmuted
All eyes placed, focusing on the missing words that could not escape my lips.
Everything seemed so close,
You seemed so distant.
So far; if I were to call to you, the chances of you hearing me would possibly be…
I wished for forever, my thoughts and dreams I had pinned them up upon this white board and this script that I had written was meant to showcase my ability to grow.
My words were chosen for specific reasons, they were meant to touch and feel the vessels that are racing within your veins.
My monotone voice was supposed to be as smooth as bourbon, as...

Fixable or Not
Sometimes it brings out the worse
Not this time surprisingly
Talking about this is never easy
Starts with finding out
Leading to the mood changing
Knowing what’s next
Prepping myself for the fight
Answers all your questions
Not hiding anything
I’m ok if you believe or not
I know I’m faithful to you
Reminding you every time this happens
I can only take so much
Each time seems to be worse
Cutting deeper than before
Making it harder to forget and forgive
I’m not ready to give up
I am done doing it...
Not this time surprisingly
Talking about this is never easy
Starts with finding out
Leading to the mood changing
Knowing what’s next
Prepping myself for the fight
Answers all your questions
Not hiding anything
I’m ok if you believe or not
I know I’m faithful to you
Reminding you every time this happens
I can only take so much
Each time seems to be worse
Cutting deeper than before
Making it harder to forget and forgive
I’m not ready to give up
I am done doing it...
