IF YOU CANT SEE ME
I you can't see my silence as pain and hurt
If your can't see me on the bottom in the dirt.
If you can't see me grubby with stains of fear and stinking with streaks of self doubt that shout rinse me out.
if you can't see me at my base camp with nothing how on earth will you be able to truly hear me above the silence of sound.
All I am trying to do is breathe inhale exhale until I know my mind is a rest amongst life's tapestry.
Where my thread is durable and bright enough to be seen when I know my worth.

Greenland's American future
Greenland’s American future
In Nuuk everybody lives in festive houses made of wood, green, blue and red looks homily in the winter landscape
Thei are the people who speaks English, building
A dry dock for submarines, that will protect the sea from intruders, like the Russians and big code fish. The Greenlander will live in nice apartments
That have lifts, naturally the have to pay rent
There will be more shops selling imported food
Soft bread and, of course hamburgers for all
There will be bars with dancing girls included
The local can get...

Parting is Such Sweet Sorrow
Parting is such sweet sorrow”
The Bard of my Universe said
But DUP will not be here tomorrow
And that notion has filled me with dread!
Why does it have to be like this?
I’m not sure I can handle this strife!
With a bottle of Jack, I’ll just have to stay pissed
Or, maybe, go on long walks with my wife?
Goodbye to You All!

freedom for Greenland
Freedom for Greenland
It is an ominous signal when the wife of the vice president visits Greenland, ostensibly to see its nature and be ever so friendly, but the Greenlanders are not fools they know Trump is sickling to get hold of this island, if he does the defenseless people will end up as rough sleepers in the streets of New York
The Greenlanders are simple folk living, have modest houses for a lump full of dollars they might be pressured to become American citizens
Money given is a lot in Greenland, and in New York almost of no value, should you regret it and try to move...

In an article, the question was what is the meaning of life? Many answers were about personal fulfillment and what made a person happy, but no one could answer that question. This I think is because we in the West are not religious, we do not believe in a God we are alone and that is scary and has an echo of colossal loneliness and the universe is empty

Stand Strong
When the night .. is dark
and the road .. is long
And you can't .. seem to find
any reason .. to carry on
That's the time .. to look inside
There is strength .. though it may hide
I know .. you've tried
and failed .. so many times
I know .. you're tired
you just want . to give up and die
Stand up .. stand strong
It can't hurt .. for too long
When you're as low .. as you can get
Just know your life .. ain't over yet
There's a time .. there's a place
where you can...
and the road .. is long
And you can't .. seem to find
any reason .. to carry on
That's the time .. to look inside
There is strength .. though it may hide
I know .. you've tried
and failed .. so many times
I know .. you're tired
you just want . to give up and die
Stand up .. stand strong
It can't hurt .. for too long
When you're as low .. as you can get
Just know your life .. ain't over yet
There's a time .. there's a place

Sepulchre Bloom
Come closer —
let me wear your breath like a veil,
soft as the static between prayers.
You press your name into my throat,
a black-flowered gospel blooming beneath glass skin.
I kneel —
mouth open, hands shaking,
drunk on the ache of you.
Every word I swallow carves you deeper —
sugar rot in the seams of my teeth.
Bury me in your ruin —
wrap me in the rhythm of your slow crucifixion.
Would you let me drown beneath you?
Would you carve a new name into my ribs
and leave me singing?
Hallowed. ...

it blows my mind
how offended y'all are
at my being "woke"
it does beg the question though
& I gotta know...
how does it feel to be owned...?

The One I Let Go
She was a quiet kind of beautiful,
the kind that sneaks up on you,
like when you finally clean your room and realize
damn, this place had windows the whole time.
She would change her hair, her clothes,
her laugh, her favorite shade of lipstick,
spinning like a broken Rubik’s cube,
hoping one day I’d figure her out.
But I was too busy looking past her,
searching for something I already had,
too scared to hold it, too dumb to say it.
I loved her—God, I did—

I feel like I'm not appreciated- I am left notably irritated
I feel like I'm emotionally drained- I am left feeling alone and ashamed
I feel like nobody gives a shit- I am left wondering if I should just quit
I feel like I'm stuck in a terrain thats rough- I am left wondering if my life will always be this tough
I feel like I've been forgotten and rejected- I am left hating how I'm constantly tested
I feel like I'm starting to decay- I am left wondering why my life is going this way
I feel like trying would be a waste- I am left to feel like I'm a total...

Will You Be My Valentine?
Will You Be My Valentine?
Will you be my valentine?
Must have said that a thousand times
I sent several invites to dine
Hundreds of roses fair and fine
Chocolate boxes more than nine
with all kinds of bottles of wine
Waiting for a wink or just a sign
to say that you agree to be mine
No reply nothing just a message online
A shrug with a sleazy punch line:
“You’re a fool for thinking I’m thine
I need someone who makes me shine
A bull. I don’t care if he’s a swine
As long as he has...

The Depths of Despair
In shadows I dwell, where darkness resides,
A prisoner of thoughts, where hope subsides.
Depression's grip, a heavy chain,
Whispering doubts, fueling the pain.
Self-harm's allure, a tempting release,
A fleeting escape, a moment of peace.
But scars remain, a haunting reminder,
Of battles fought, wounds left behind her.
Suicide's call, a siren's sweet song,
Promising solace, where nothing feels wrong.
But death's embrace, a cold, empty void,
Leaving behind loved ones, forever destroyed.
I yearn for light, a glimmer of hope,
To...
A prisoner of thoughts, where hope subsides.

Whispering doubts, fueling the pain.

Of battles fought, wounds left behind her.
Suicide's call, a siren's sweet song,
Promising solace, where nothing feels wrong.
But death's embrace, a cold, empty void,
Leaving behind loved ones, forever destroyed.
