The Way I See It
There are people who are bruised
Battered
Broken
Who have lived through the unthinkable
Or
Who still live in hell
There are people who persevere
Become victorious
Become content
You can be caged
And still have freedom
There isn’t a person on this earth
Who can take away
Who you are
Only you
You can choose to let what has been done to you
Define you
Control you
Destroy you
Or
You can rise against
Rise up
Reclaim yourself
...

Godspeed, Fellow Writer's
Propaganda got emotions running hot
Misinformation crowds an angry stage
Seems the internet can cause brain rot
Inciting the masses with constant rage
Help me understand how we got here
Political puppets are deciding our fate
It’s not a mere illusion it’s more severe
Wealthy families fighting over the gate
I’m sorry fellow poets/poetesses I had every intention of writing this poem. Maybe I did write it, maybe it’s not meant to be what I call finished.
My muse has other ideas in mind. She always gets her way, and she is...

Come on Girl
You just live the simple life
well you don't do nothing good
you wonder where the good times are
well there right in front of you
Stop being a grump
or you'll get dumped
come on girl, get in on life
You've been told that there's only one way,
and that's why the rules you follow each day
if you keep on living like that,
you're gonna die like the rest of the pack
Let free, let go,
let everyone know
you're not gonna be another victim of society
You're free from your daddy's hand,
go out and find...

melancholy breathe
insulted grief what do you have to do with me?
in the eternal scorn I hurt too
make some room for my sorrow
melancholy is on her knees
such a painful little sprite
sadness speaks of my loneliness
it is a sad tale
commingling in the doubt cast by the shadow of a man
I am sacrifice taking your hand
lending you some comfort in your distress
coffee and cigarettes
choking on my humiliation to be so needful
tiny redeemer is faith in you
salting my wounds are my confessions
a word at a time breaking...

Feral Flowers
Wildflower secrets.
My feral heart beating deep.
Saunters crazily.
My feral heart beating deep.
Saunters crazily.

Like Birds Who Spread Their Wings
Feel the way the air caresses your skin and hair
Like a gentle whisper that soothes the soul
The sweet scent of nature can elate your spirit
When the taste of noble candor takes a hold
Like birds who spread their wings in the firmament
Flying free amidst fields of clouds and hazy dreams
The sound of liberty and peace is on their shoulders
Relishing in the ease of these motifs and themes
The coolness of open skies will uplift and energize
With breaths of life that feed the heart and lungs
Like hums and vibrations echoing through...
Like a gentle whisper that soothes the soul

Cease and Desist
Who are they talking to that nobody can see?
A friend
A colleague
A tradesman
A lover
A sibling
A ghost of a former self ?
What are they listening to that no-one can hear?
A podcast
A song
A book
A fading echo of their inner voice?
They move amongst us
the wired, the tired, the nearly expired
the zombie walkers
the mindless runners
those boom box bastards on their e bikes.
Put the noise away....I beg you.
Listen to the songs...

MORNING SILENCE WHEN IT RISES
As I silently walk across the sand leaving behind my footprints as I walk, aimlessly through the mist of the morning rising over the horizon. I stop to admire this piece of insightful beauty here before my eyes, as I inhale and exhale the freshness of the sea breeze filling my lungs with each stroke of the winds. Yet as I stare into the vision of the dead silence, that the morning silent brings with it comes an awakening feeling. As I become so intoxicated by the very thing that hypnotizes, me the most as it transcends through the stairway and gateways of my thoughts. For it is this kind of...

Fraternal Orders
Hoping you will have knee-jerk reactions
these days they call everyone a Marxist
catering to their hate satisfactions
based on the political lessons they missed
or quite wilfully don't want you to know
in looming fights for re-enfranchisement
to the civil rights that you just let go
because of fake fraternal despisement
which MAGA voters cravenly allowed
when mass hysteria was their rumor
shaped so well by the loud for the proud
akin to brains sheltering a tumour
blocking access to any Marxist thought...

The Thrill of Art and Vision
Cardboard
Got a number 5
All it needs is original art
A box head or 2
Minimalistic
Just enough for a laugh
Bukowski might give a nod
Drink a few beers
Tease the art world
When I stopped trying to sell paintings
Relevance spun a tale of glory
Me
Myself
Artist
Finally made it
No deposit
No return
Free at last …

unexplored paths
there's something about backroads
backwoods
hidden trails
they call to the nomad in me
inspiring wanderlust
always chasing the latest mystery
you can only see so much on the main
you have to step off
meander down overgrown lanes
ducking through tangles
those low hanging branches
to crest the next rise
find a surprise
stumble upon one of nature's best kept secrets
she's full of them
blowing your mind & widening eyes
sometimes it's just a detour
not leading anywhere
but if I don't go
how will I...
