EMPTY.
So seriously,
I'm looking through the lens of empty.
Me around empty shakes melodically,uncontrollably.
Inability 2 stop man- handling empty.
Empty defiantly stares at me.
Empty irritates me..
Please!- it begs me.
Swim in the depths of me.
Me,me,me.
How can I resist such chemistry.
NOW!
You listen 2 me empty.
I'm in control!
Seen!
I'm not a follower of you empty....

Locust Logic (Absolute Zero & Heat Death Are Not What They Seem)
Our monuments are no longer solid
Have we lost all lore?
If no one knows where they're going
We'll never gather, we'll swarm
This could be tragic, I imagine
Like either nine of swords
Eyes blind to all that isn't light
Desperately looking to be warm
From far off it seems different
Nothing lost and nothing gained
But in the face of what some have boldly labeled change
We can't see the future past it everything looks like yesterday
A safe place for all our baby teeth and our demons
Now we all run from our freedom...
Have we lost all lore?
If no one knows where they're going
We'll never gather, we'll swarm
This could be tragic, I imagine
Like either nine of swords
Eyes blind to all that isn't light
Desperately looking to be warm
From far off it seems different
Nothing lost and nothing gained
But in the face of what some have boldly labeled change
We can't see the future past it everything looks like yesterday
A safe place for all our baby teeth and our demons
Now we all run from our freedom...

What's In It For Me?
A wise man once said, "what's in it for me?"
Today, I'm that man asking what's in it for me.
I'm just waiting for you to make an offer.
Today, I'm that man asking what's in it for me.
I'm just waiting for you to make an offer.

Reset
What am I doing here?
Nothing really seems to make much sense
How have I found my soul
Living in such ignorance?
Is there anything I can do?
Is there anything I can say?
Is there anything I can do?
To hit reset on
This game I'm playing
(So-called "reality"
It’s pure insanity)
What is this world I’m in?
My God, what’s happening?
What is this world I’m in?
Tell me what is happening
In this existence
Tell me, what is happening?
Is there anything I can...
Nothing really seems to make much sense
How have I found my soul
Living in such ignorance?
Is there anything I can do?
Is there anything I can say?
Is there anything I can do?
To hit reset on
This game I'm playing
(So-called "reality"
It’s pure insanity)
What is this world I’m in?
My God, what’s happening?
What is this world I’m in?
Tell me what is happening
In this existence
Tell me, what is happening?
Is there anything I can...

Abstract
Whenever I ignore authority my behavior is not always deviant from the norm.
I am living on borrowed denial from the past.
I’m expecting it to redeem my future.
I’m dependent on it.
And I’m not lying.
Play me.
I keep expecting something bad to happen.
Waiting for the other proverbial shoe to drop.
That dreaded anxiety has been ingrained into my living essence since childhood.
Branded like an animal.
I recognize it now, if only for a moment.
It’s like I want something...
I am living on borrowed denial from the past.
I’m expecting it to redeem my future.
I’m dependent on it.
And I’m not lying.
Play me.
I keep expecting something bad to happen.
Waiting for the other proverbial shoe to drop.
That dreaded anxiety has been ingrained into my living essence since childhood.
Branded like an animal.
I recognize it now, if only for a moment.
It’s like I want something...

No Flowers
Some moments
beyond loneliness
or exile,
beyond wishes
where hands
hold on to emptiness,
hope leaves
and trailing whispers
softly fill a loss.
No flowers,
no blossoms,
just troubles
executed
within a soul,
no second chances
no future
no happiness,
only a pitch black
that can blind
the best of everyone.

The magic wand
He looked in the mirror
And saw nothing.
No body
No face
No shadow.
The witch had really done it.
The bitch must have paid her
A very nice sum
She meant for him to disappear
From her life.
Forever.
But he never thought she could throw such a spell.
She had completely annihilated him.
He woke up as if out of a trance,
Jerked away from this nightmare
Sweating like a pig.
At the foot of the bed was his suitcase
Somebody had already packed it.
Passport on top
A wad of cash
And a one way ticket ...
And saw nothing.
No body
No face
No shadow.
The witch had really done it.
The bitch must have paid her
A very nice sum
She meant for him to disappear
From her life.
Forever.
But he never thought she could throw such a spell.
She had completely annihilated him.
He woke up as if out of a trance,
Jerked away from this nightmare
Sweating like a pig.
At the foot of the bed was his suitcase
Somebody had already packed it.

And a one way ticket ...

nerds are us
I didn't do it,
you must have guessed at;
I fly by a different realm-
I enjoy sun and dizzy calm;
I leave the party to play dungeons & dragons;
I release the smile of always suffering fools;
I can't and won't live it down.
understanding the wiles of fellow humans
is best left to the philosophers and
I'll just be that hermit girl,
again and red mountain dew as that other
fellow dork said.

a trip to Wales
A trip to Wales
I was driving among hillocks; the landscape was green
it was spring and sheep-dipped in coal dust, grazed
with their offspring
Parked near a pub in a hamlet, it had a name
I could not get my tongue around it and enter
into a dark interior.
The few customers ignored me yet eyed me
perhaps they thought I was English looking to buy a cottage.
I drank powder coffee in a sea of Welshness
my foreignness disturbed me
and the locals.
I left.

Souped Out Engine.
Nowhere 2 go 2 repair your souped out engine.
No-where 2 go,
And its Boxing Day you know.
Its a Friday night and you've decided 2 go 2 your local garage,
Only 2 be told--Jog On.
You're 2 broken.
The Anti-lock braking systems(ABS),
2 prevent your wheels from locking up,
So you can maintain grip on the road,
Where you press hard on the brake pedal,which is
faulty,and you're skidding all over the road.
You've crashed your engines centre.
Steering 2 maintain your position in a driving lane-
Just go...
No-where 2 go,
And its Boxing Day you know.
Its a Friday night and you've decided 2 go 2 your local garage,
Only 2 be told--Jog On.
You're 2 broken.

Where you press hard on the brake pedal,which is

Steering 2 maintain your position in a driving lane-
Just go...

Wide eyed and mouth in permanent shock.
As I converse with those whom interest me.
Stunned silence.
Dread covered expressions.
Bodies stiff as if too scared to move.
The dismay that sucks the air out of the lungs.
As a cold sweat is soon to follow suit.
Movement ceased.
As if the fear to make my eyes wonder upon the very state of it was a dreaded mistake.
As I calmly trace about with pleasant company.
The reverse isn't quite how it's seen.
Towers crumble while I bask in...
As I converse with those whom interest me.
Stunned silence.
Dread covered expressions.
Bodies stiff as if too scared to move.
The dismay that sucks the air out of the lungs.
As a cold sweat is soon to follow suit.
Movement ceased.
As if the fear to make my eyes wonder upon the very state of it was a dreaded mistake.
As I calmly trace about with pleasant company.
The reverse isn't quite how it's seen.
Towers crumble while I bask in...

Should I Go?
I have only known you a few weeks,
You've been kind, and understanding, without critiques,
You're kind, intelligent, funny, nerdy, and beautiful,
I thought what we had was meaningful,
We'd chat online,
Everything seemed fine,
Then you left for a few days,
A needed break from this online maze,
But something changed in you,
I know you're hurting, that is true,
But you don't want to talk to me anymore,
What are we anymore?
We weren't defined,
But it seems you've resigned
From anything we thought we could be,
And now I've...
