Be Professional
Isn’t this my room?
So why do I cater
To who might see it
When they visit later?
Won’t I spend most of my time here alone?
Why do I hide in my own, my own?
I’ll have a kid’s foolishness decking my walls.
Either I’m stuck and refuse to advance
Or nobody resurrects their old romance
As the years creep up and urge us to speed
So we blindly whip past that in which we staked value,
Carelessly mumbling that we will return
At a later date, once we’re established
And earned our freedom – to throw dinner parties
For guests we feel...

Empty Calories
You’re like a word without definition, meaningless.
Like a scar without ever feeling the pain.
Like distress in your dress, and you’ve never fallen.
You want to fashion up like a doll face.
I ask you, “but who’s wearing it?”.
You can sugar coat it all you want, saturate the health under it.
Cover photo’s all glam, and no story behind it.
A book and what’s to learn from it?
Dull teeth, being pointless will never cut it.
Like a scar without ever feeling the pain.
Like distress in your dress, and you’ve never fallen.
You want to fashion up like a doll face.
I ask you, “but who’s wearing it?”.
You can sugar coat it all you want, saturate the health under it.
Cover photo’s all glam, and no story behind it.
A book and what’s to learn from it?
Dull teeth, being pointless will never cut it.

Not to Judge
Judging is an instinct to take care.
it's only wrong in certain situations.
It can be an instinct to take care.
Like, not to go too close to the edge.
It's to be careful.
It's just being wise.
Taking distance ain't judging.
It's to keep one self, away from bad company.
To keep one self from certain situations not worth to be in.
Like an unnecessary discussion.
It's just being smarter than the other.
Avoiding contradictions is many times wisely.
Like your' universe avoiding mine.
It not to judge. ...

The Wall
Build a wall, they say.
Sign of our power, our grandeur.
Razor to landscape
cut straight through to marrow.
Build it higher, they say.
Sign of our eminence.
Stand it tall as our egos
mirror to your insignificance.
Build it longer, they say.
Construct it of metals jagged and barbed.
That blood of errant people may run down every inch.
——
Build a wall, we say.
Iron canvas upon which to paint in vibrant tones
the music of our mutual...

Huh?
It’s stupid because
You’re avoiding
the truth
feminism always
worked for me
because I was
a coward and
I wouldn’t have
To do what men
Traditionally
Did
You’re standing on the
Shoulders of gigantic
Idiots
I can’t feel
Anything
Anymore
If you agree
With me, I’ve
Failed as an
Artist
Little things that
Are little known
If we stopped
Lying to each
Other, we’d no
Longer be
Human
86% of the homeless ...

Bad People
Good people
They marry who they should.
Good people
Celebrate all the holidays.
They don’t give their families shit,
They don’t give them a hard time
’Cause they’re so good.
And you are one of them.
Bad people
Lately I have been around
Bad people
In a way I have always rebelled,
Early stepped off the proper path
To follow something I called my heart.
Now I’m not dating who I should,
At work I act real smart
Though I know it’ll come back to bite
That I’m not good.
You’ll never see a picture...
They marry who they should.

a cat in our neighborhood.
there’s a cat in our neighborhood
he belongs to no one,
everyone belongs to him.
he visits me once a week or so,
stretches on the couch,
slowly winks,
demands to be petted.
sometimes we watch Fellini
movies and yawn together.
he arrives with cool nights
to snore loud rhythmic purrings ...
he belongs to no one,
everyone belongs to him.
he visits me once a week or so,
stretches on the couch,
slowly winks,
demands to be petted.
sometimes we watch Fellini
movies and yawn together.
he arrives with cool nights
to snore loud rhythmic purrings ...

Theosophy.
Most organized religions
share the same basic template:
guilt, prayer, more guilt and extortion
(all interspersed with an occasional holiday).

An Amish Sweet 16.
an Amish teen
finds candy, cars,
cannabis, colors,
corduroy and copulation-
but she does not
know what they are
for.
