Weeping for the World
In silent solitude, I weep;
In suffering for this wondrous world.
Depriving me of precious sleep:
My greatest fears have come unfurled.
I weep for starving children,
As we overpopulate the Earth.
For people born in poverty,
Emaciated at their birth.
I weep for homelessness,
For people dying on the street;
As people pass them by
And watch them suffer at their feet.
I weep for mental illness,
For broken families; broken homes.
I weep for the abuse;
And for those who feel like...

For broken families; broken homes.

Infant from the infinite
Ever feel like a little kid?
Like a new born,
an infant from the infinite
pulled into existence..
Into a world
so weird and absolutely absurd..
Sort of mysterious and mesmerizing..
Despite mankind murdering alot of the beauty and wonder
There's still so much to behold
before we get old
and pass to the next plane (presumably)
Lets not reign supreme
and kill the planet
just for our dreams..
Lets witness the wild wonders
and not pillage and plunder..
We've caused so much chaos..
It's preposterous ...

Eclipse of All Earths
The queen dug her colony in valleys of corn husk.
New venom teethed in the migrant sows.
Swarm from nectar into these fragrant lands.
They said they'd seen the bishop flaunt a halo.
Then watched it explode in a runny sky.
Lower than God, lower than country, then amissed in dirt.
Ants comb the ground and trail from a hole
of a gerrymandered well.
The poppy leaf fell by the hand of a medium.
The queen perched on the still skin clay streets.
Beasts, creatures of disorder winced until the ticks set
in the revolt of the...

Daddy Phantom Goes Green
From infants sharing a symbiotic relationship with elemental forces
Into Juvenile Delinquents recklessly manipulating them
Progress?
Evolution?
Recycling Bins and Hybrids?
Collective guilt complexes
Failed attempts at quick band-aid fixes that can’t stem the current biological trend
Countries that are yet to reap the benefits (of Babylon’s Slumber Party with no parental supervision)
Pay dearly for its sins
Attacked by Weather Witches sent via satellite transmission
Feed the children?
Teach them how to fish in poisoned oceans?

The Noxious Apple.
On cemetary hill there is a tree,
and in some ways it speaks to me.
It sits alone, untaxed and free;
and it's unharmed- its toxin's deadly.
It wants for nothing, it has its feed:
the dead men that rot at its feet.
And if you near it you fall, too-
from its burning dripping brew.
So you must leave your dead friends-
there below its dreaded bends.
This tree sits here lonely, you think-
but it's got all the company, I think.
in men that fester in the sun-
never to hide, never to run.
and in some ways it speaks to me.
It sits alone, untaxed and free;
and it's unharmed- its toxin's deadly.
It wants for nothing, it has its feed:
the dead men that rot at its feet.
And if you near it you fall, too-
from its burning dripping brew.
So you must leave your dead friends-
there below its dreaded bends.
This tree sits here lonely, you think-
but it's got all the company, I think.
in men that fester in the sun-
never to hide, never to run.

Blessed Be!
It's not that im not listening hun,
I'm just
Somewhere else entirely and your voice is acting as static noise as I drift in this void it is around you yet all you see are your trivialities
Missing all whats around please please
Let us be
When you speak
Let it drift
Sing
Be one
One with us
If not
Drift on!
There is nothing wrong!
Today is beautiful
So let it be :)

Like Lust In The Chill Of The Grave
The men that find such beauty when it’s theirs,
Each one expects his sum for all he owns.
To walk and pace and call it forth by name,
While noting of each feature like his child.
Purveyors of the land on others’ backs,
These owners of the gullies, woods and vales.
The arteries that give drink to the fields,
Of long and winding rows so straightly plowed.
Corrections overseen by foreman’s hand,
Where script allots the hedge and masonry.
That show ahead where every tree will stand,
No curvature of range-breaks...
Each one expects his sum for all he owns.
To walk and pace and call it forth by name,
While noting of each feature like his child.
Purveyors of the land on others’ backs,
These owners of the gullies, woods and vales.

Of long and winding rows so straightly plowed.
Corrections overseen by foreman’s hand,
Where script allots the hedge and masonry.
That show ahead where every tree will stand,

Tale to Tell
Glass bottle in the earth,
hidden as rats in the compost bin -
left when glass bottles were commonplace,
when the deeds were written -
when a Lady knew her power and laid her plans.
Earnestly, I turn it as it catches flecks of light
and makes mystery of them
across the shaded soil -
where wild garlic and anemone,
daphne and winter clematis are tipping
over, almost -
unnoticed -
and I see these colours set ablaze
in their final hours with a turn of glass,
upon it's...

Extinction is glaring: the humans demise
What humans think
humans create,
humans save yourselves.
What humans think

What humans think

humans save yourselves.
What humans think

What humans think
humans create.
What humans think
humans create.
The alien in the starfields
looked down on earth
and came to see if
we experienced a rebirth. ...
humans create,
humans save yourselves.
What humans think

humans save yourselves.
What humans think

summer rejoice
It will only get some worse
With a climate so adverse,
Wonder when we’ll see the light
To our joy and full delight,
Sure I won’t complain again
When the sun will burn my brain,
I just long for days to come
Until summer has begun,
Hoping it will heat our days
And the winter will disgrace,
I wish to come off my shell
and start ringing out my bell,
screaming top out of my voice
hail the sun and then rejoice.
With a climate so adverse,
Wonder when we’ll see the light
To our joy and full delight,
Sure I won’t complain again
When the sun will burn my brain,
I just long for days to come
Until summer has begun,

And the winter will disgrace,
I wish to come off my shell
and start ringing out my bell,
screaming top out of my voice
hail the sun and then rejoice.

In a "me"
I am a warrior
I am a worrier
I will protect her
I am a protector
Stop making a hole
Start making a whole
It's time to oversee
Protection over sea
Let our angry imaginations
Aim Re-imagine nations
Stop pouring in her carbon sink
And learn to reuse your sink
Give up plastic city
And embrace plasticity
Change is not enemy
Real change is in a "me"
I am a worrier
I will protect her
I am a protector
Stop making a hole
Start making a whole
It's time to oversee
Protection over sea
Let our angry imaginations
Aim Re-imagine nations
Stop pouring in her carbon sink
And learn to reuse your sink
Give up plastic city
And embrace plasticity
Change is not enemy
Real change is in a "me"
