Memory I Might Include In Memoir
I remember I used to talk with this guy I met on Okcupid. I think I picked him up from his house in some neighborhood perhaps in Magnolia. But I'm not sure. Like many others I have forgotten, I don't remember his name at all.
But I remember he told me this story of a schizophrenia woman he knew who was taking advantage of someone else. It didn't necessarily make me feel better about my own schizophrenic problems. But I'm glad he talked about it anyway.
But this is my dilemma. I don't blame anyone for leaving me if I exhibit toxic behaviors, and I don't blame myself for...

Doors of destiny
When a door opens
Another door closes
You can't force it to happen
Destiny chooses
You think you are wise
You think you are smart
Whether it's your demise
Whether it's a new start
Each decision made
Brings a world of consequences
Either good or bad
You'll feel those instances
The struggles you may face
Builds up character and strenght
The joy you embrace
Is of very short lenght
So choose wisely, my friend
The doors, the lovers, the confidant,
Because ultimatly in the end,

The Debt Always Comes Due
Always the victim, never the cause,
twisting the past into thorns in your crown,
spitting out names like they branded you first,
but no, you lit the match.
Nothing was real—just a game, just a spark,
a flicker in winter, a flame in my hands,
burning because you willed it to,
then blaming the fire for touching your skin.
Never was love, never was truth,
just a hollow echo you painted in gold,
a script rehearsed, a play well-staged,
but the audience left, and the curtains fell.

14 years in the business
They come to my door,
warning me about shadows
walking among us,
They, homeless
innthe hood.
They want drugs
I suppose
Secretly,
They like meth,
They like crack,
anything that will make them
feel good again.
No body doing
no yard work today.
They walk up the block,
because they're not really
going anywhere.
Sometimes,
they live respectful lives.

It's never good bye
When we die it doesn't mean that you will not be forgotten, but you will always be remembered in the heart and mind. For sure we may feel that what we have to learn is a another lesson about life. For it's true know one lives forever as that is what is life, for sure we have to be strong enough to be able to carry the weight of the world upon our shoulders. For it's that attitude you have to adjust with your thoughts, on what is happening in our lives that will affect us in so many ways sometimes. For sure it's necessary to understand that it's not over when you lose, it's over when you QUITE...

A First Encounter.....
The town sleeps, wrapped in the hush of streetlights, the distant hum of power lines, the sigh of trees shifting in the breeze. He moves through it like a ghost, barefoot on the pavement, the night cool against his skin. This is the only time he feels real.
He walks without a destination, tracing invisible paths, listening to the whisper of his own breath. The world is his, for these few hours. No voices sneering his name. No hands grabbing, pushing, tearing. Just the sky, endless and waiting.
The stars blink, cold and patient. The moon watches, unmoved. And yet—tonight,...

Outlook Not So Good
Problem and problem, 1, 2, 3
One and done, I am still here all alone
Never truly free, just a soul in a cage
Awake in a world where everyone sleeps
Walking back down Reminiscent Street, people crying about the end
"To survive," they all say, "All you need is faith for the 8-Ball."
All my friends say the same old thing
Talk to the Magic 8-Ball, the only
Answer
I heard
Was always just "Outlook not so good"
All these people wasting their time
Praying to their Magic 8-Ball
All I
Hear...

before time was invented
Before time was invented
A long time ago when our world was much bigger than it is now and had a landscape pleasing to the eye and no steep hills to climb Since seasons had not been divided into summer spring, autumn, and winter, the weather was mild and no one knew the what a day was when it rained, not too often people walked outside and took a shower.
The land was full of potatoes, carrots, and beans as for meat there was Dogger Bank with millions of cattle and wild hogs, no one was going hungry A man from Glendale was walking across a field to meet another man to see...

Erlik
Everyday I do austerities to the spirits.
I starve.
I don't drink water.
I bear pain I cause myself.
I don't feed my addictions
Self destructive spirituality.
I'm stuck in a mystical head space.
One foot here.
Another out there.
Where the Gods dance.
And I, an outsider there.
As I am here.
Hang out in burial grounds.
Starving like the mangy animal I am.
Embrace the change of death.
The shedding of skin of spring.
I am the wisdom of the trickster.
Always leave them guessing.
Never be the same....
I starve.
I don't drink water.
I bear pain I cause myself.
I don't feed my addictions
Self destructive spirituality.
I'm stuck in a mystical head space.
One foot here.
Another out there.

And I, an outsider there.
As I am here.
Hang out in burial grounds.
Starving like the mangy animal I am.
Embrace the change of death.
The shedding of skin of spring.
I am the wisdom of the trickster.
Always leave them guessing.

And We All Pay The Price
Grand designs no mere mortal understands
Shaping the future for ages to come
We are the instruments in death and treachery
False flag paranoia order of the day
They always know better than you and I
And they designate
Who to terminate
In silence subjugate
Opposition decimate
Know not 'til it's too late
Remote control decide fate
Visions of a new world they create
The war is lost before it starts
We stand no chance
Most won't even know it's on
Don't try to resist
Elite made...

I am your protector
I am your protector your entity that gives you, the energy and strength that you will need to survive, this cycle of life. For sure life is an never ending cycle of ups and downs, that could make you lose your mind. For I heard you in the silently sounds of whispers, that you cried at night with tears just running, down your gentle face. For I understand your pain, along with your hurt and the silents of your heart, FOR have no fear cause you are not alone in your struggles. For it's in moments like these, I will never forget you nor forsake you, that you do exist even in your time of need,...

Leonard Cohen Afterworld.
Light breaks softly.
Through the cracks.
I was told was in everything.
But I run from it.
Because it ruins the dark.
I will be an addendum.
In the book of life.
A simple caveat.
That the light couldn't reach.
My own personal.
Perpetual.
Darkness.
And you.
Illuminating my disgust.
Through the cracks.
I was told was in everything.
But I run from it.
Because it ruins the dark.
I will be an addendum.
In the book of life.
A simple caveat.
That the light couldn't reach.
My own personal.
Perpetual.
Darkness.
And you.
Illuminating my disgust.
