The Route
Spinning inside my head tonight
Your words left a lasting impression
It’s kinda overwhelming to think
Within the context of your confession
Truths are heavy when laced in guilt
Addiction leaves tiny splinters inside
What you felt was the bricks you carry
Veiled by liquid courage and selfish pride
There is no judgement in this room
Being a witness to every single doubt
I’ll help you return to former glories
Because I memorized the entire route
Your words left a lasting impression

Being a witness to every single doubt
I’ll help you return to former glories
Because I memorized the entire route

The Painful Train Ride
On the LIRR to Penn Station
Hot
Thick
I can smell myself
The floor is covered with garbage
I see a girl on the platform when we stop at the next town
I wish
I wish I could lift myself from this seat and touch her
I don't want to break her arm though
Do you want to know me?
My pain would crush your rib cage
I could love you
I wish I could stop running

Information
Hi everyone
I was trying to think of the best way to get this out to you all. I guess I will copy and paste in a thread.
I will be creating a writing site called Hypo Frost Poetry. A few people asked if I was going to create one, and I did have plans to do it later this year. Now, I have decided to move the process up.
The plan is to make it a place like the DUP. Of course, there is only one Dup.
Since moving my timeline up, I had to adjust a few things. I then created a GoFundMe page to help with development. The link is below.

ONE OF "THE FEW"
He's one "the Few"
who's still in view,
though not seen a lot
as when they were "hot"
in poster appeal
and wartime newsreel,
for part they did play
in keeping away
attempts to invade -
rained off Goering's parade
that might have been staged
had we become caged
with the occupied
lands in Europe wide.
His medals are the
signs of past glory,
though at great risk earned -
so many crashed, burned
quite literally,
even lost in sea.

Get back to what's important
Let's get back to love honor and respect that is what's important, to clean up the mess of the truth of the nonsense and negativity.
THAT almost destroyed us mentally and emotionally and physically and spiritually. For it's necessary to truly understand, that we have the ability and power to eliminate, the deepness of the hurt and pain. THAT has been inflicted upon our soul, and tapping into our own mind. THOUGHTS but yet you still have to believe in your faith which can't no one take that away from you. For sure what is more important to you than putting love back in your life and world...

You had seen death &... felt it
all through its mysteries & pain..
challenged it like an Avatar..
& had come back .. here again..
kicking alive.. it’s a miraculous
divinity.. You are nothing but
God.. “
the flying sparks of this fiery
towering bonfire… of this a messy
rainy day over this steepy hill slope
of a difficult terrain… you are carried
here by your loving souls’ in their
palanquin of united hands.. you
wrapped up in...

Collage #2 - Outsider Looking In
I was always on the outside
Looking in
Wasn’t much I wanted in there
Loner type
Like the song by Bob Dylan
Off the album BLONDE ON BLONDE
“Just Like a Woman”
The line … ‘I can’t fit”
So Art called
I jumped in
Many years later I remain
A movement for outside artists
Platform to stand tall
Malcontents, nonconformists, freaks
It’s like your warm embrace
Finally… I fit

courage
there is dignity still. yes there is courage
sadness peaks and overpours it must be expressed
let notes of powerful beauty explain
bombs and guns can not silence the soul of the brave
the blood of humanity will cry out to the heavens, hear the Ukraine
rising on the winds to reach the hearts of others
yes, I'm still here, feel my pain
in the tall of my back I am speaking to the downtrodden and afraid
music soothing the frayed spirits
for a moment transported to better days
in an instant all the joyous days spent playing...

in the tall of my back I am speaking to the downtrodden and afraid
