Breathe a Breath
Breathe to me a breath I can share
Breath a breath that saves the earth
Climate will hurt us
if we are ignorant to the land
that burns us and quakes us and spins tornadoes
We should all agree living not dying
Is better than not existing even a little bit
So temperatures rise and we can’t lie
Bacon is burning breakfast on asphalt
Breathe a breathe that saves all of us
Plant a tree give oxygen to peoplekind
As fires burn the west 80 foot flames in Greece
No...

Oxygen
Will your last breath be an exhale that just continues on until all air is gone?
Can it be anything else?
No more inhales.
No more anything.
No more you.
You never existed in the first place.
You were just an imagining in consciousness.
Things only touched a convention , never you.
You can't be touched physically.
Because you don't exist physically.
You're just attached to something created by contact with something else.

playing within
When the lights are dim
and the crowd’s all gone
keep the game alive
play on and on.
No need for a stage
or a roaring cheer
the heart of the game
is always here.
In the silence,
moves are made
passes thrown
in a hidden parade.
Invisible victories
unseen sweat
chasing dreams
with no regret.
Under the stars
with no eyes to see.
The spirit of play runs
wild and free.
Every shot a whisper
every goal a ghost.
In the quiet night
you’re playing the...

Time Is Of Essence, My Lord
Saffron
Somewhere in Time
1300 BC
Yes, my love, you are just as beautiful from the day, I rescued you from the shores of the high seas
A beautiful amulet to adorn my throne as my Queen to be
And that look in your eyes
You make me feel like a Yoruba God, in order to find you, I had to bow my head to the skies
My love, my heart is biding to yours
You are the air for which I breathe
As the sweetest flowers bloom you pollenate my temple, your tongue bathes my skin after a honey pour
Tell my heart through the window of...

A Flame of Decay
O Fire, thou art a spectral breath
That fans decay to feasts of death
Thy embered kiss on flesh doth creep
In darkened halls where silence weeps
What ghostly hunger dost thou crave
To turn the strong to ashen grave?
In twisting dance, thy tendrils coil
To rend the bone and flesh to soil
Alas, the frame, in sinewed pride
Is but a pyre where worms reside
A hallowed form, so wrought in vain
Consumed, unmade by thy disdain
Thus flesh returns to dust’s embrace
Where fire leaves naught of earthly grace
An...

After Summer comes The Rains
i love the summers torrid, their Stark feel
time when the winds hold the time still
wherein the mirage waving like a dream sea
where silhouette twist their eerie entity
zenithal heat, vertical sun, burning limit
zero shadow, Dante's inferno, the sky's lit
zephyr of a sighing giant in the gaping air
under a disk flaming, sending sizzling glare
it feels like time is always and ever hot
lose any reviving, any freshening thought
but,to such flaring flames, the more i light
every flaming pyre, in the deep of night
there,...

Vulnerability and Hellfire
Sometimes
Your give me your vulnerable
One moment at a time
Each syllable
Dancing
A rthymic flow
Graceful and amorous
Or a moody storm
Either way
I can't resist
The sweet sensation
Or your fiery finish
That is you
Your give me your vulnerable
One moment at a time
Each syllable
Dancing
A rthymic flow
Graceful and amorous
Or a moody storm
Either way
I can't resist
The sweet sensation
Or your fiery finish
That is you

The Numbing Flame
They had just finished sex
He said he was going "out there"
She asked him when he would be back
He said that she didn't want to know anymore
That he was hollow
And if she got any closer, he would damage her for the rest of her life
By telling her everything
He said goodbye, got up & walked away
He walked across a stretch of sand
He was met by an ocean made of fire
He turned, smiled and ducked under a wave of flames
He disappeared and the night started to scream
He said he was going "out there"
She asked him when he would be back
He said that she didn't want to know anymore
That he was hollow
And if she got any closer, he would damage her for the rest of her life
By telling her everything
He said goodbye, got up & walked away
He walked across a stretch of sand
He was met by an ocean made of fire
He turned, smiled and ducked under a wave of flames
He disappeared and the night started to scream

Kali of Time and Transformation
In the veil of night, where time dissolves,
Kali appears, to encompasse everything.
With eyes of fire and sensual dance
she governs time and the life cycle.
Her fire burns, destroys and renews.
In the dance of death, life proves itself.
Every step a collapsing universe,
every turn, a rebirth, an embrace.
Kali, ordeal of time and destiny,
with her sword cuts the divine veil.
Destroys the ego, illusion and fear.
Reveals the truth, the path of no secrets.
Her skull necklace, symbol of power,
shows that...

Fire and Fear
Serenity so far away
Waltz to the grave
Iron tears and flays
Suffering they crave
Gashes and bloody tears
Spell out a violent script
Souls lost to deepest fears
Bone cracked and skin ripped
Food for the crows
Fester day and night
Strikes from cruelty's blows
Scent of terror's blight
Waltz to the grave
Iron tears and flays
Suffering they crave
Gashes and bloody tears
Spell out a violent script
Souls lost to deepest fears
Bone cracked and skin ripped
Food for the crows
Fester day and night
Strikes from cruelty's blows
Scent of terror's blight

Climate times(flyin high)
Flyin high in climate times
Gonna get an RV to see
Things not saw by my eyes
Mile marker 29 flys by
Pull into the campground
Stretch my legs and let go
As small talk goes all around
Back on the horse
Rubber on asphalt
Driving on an American Dream
Driving on an American Dream
Mountains stand tall in the distance
A frog hops into whitewater
I want to go to Hawaii
I can’t step onto the runway ...
Gonna get an RV to see

Heavy 13
Feeling heavy 13
Feeling heavy carbon
I’m 13 into my fusion
Fusion fuels me I speed
Colliding with myself
I’m nuclear in you
My tension fuels me and
I’m spinning like a top
Symphony when we crash together
We crash and blow up the world
Fall into a rhythm like we’re in chic fil a
While my sins scream from the pew
Church of sins inside me
I’m feeling heavy carbon I’m 13
Hover above light carbon 12 doesn’t spark
Nuclear chemistry...
Feeling heavy carbon
I’m 13 into my fusion
Fusion fuels me I speed
Colliding with myself
I’m nuclear in you
My tension fuels me and
I’m spinning like a top
Symphony when we crash together
We crash and blow up the world
Fall into a rhythm like we’re in chic fil a
While my sins scream from the pew
Church of sins inside me
I’m feeling heavy carbon I’m 13
Hover above light carbon 12 doesn’t spark
Nuclear chemistry...
