What Was and What's to Come
I'm caught between transcendence and gravity
When everything revolves around the world behind our own eyes
Sucked in again as insecurities speak
Triggered by commonalities
Attacking from different angles inspired by the same needs
Residing on opposite ends of an unbalanced equation
Learning to love despite the thief behind our homes
Hearts are held hostage
Targeted venting of sentimental wounds
Caught up in the wreckage
Casualty in the ruins of a former life
I don't live there anymore
Provoked by insinuation
This is...

Our Memories
We remember harvesting roses-with their petals nice and thick
but, forget the times their thorns our finger they did prick
We remember all the sunny days
even the rainy ones we remember with a romantic haze
We remember going fishing by a creek or lake
Yet, forget about not catching any to fry or bake
Our memories are like an old photo album that we review
snap shots of the fun times we have lived through
Sometimes a bad memory returns stronger than 30 year old Glenlivet
But, with time we are blessed not to relive it ...
but, forget the times their thorns our finger they did prick

snap shots of the fun times we have lived through
Sometimes a bad memory returns stronger than 30 year old Glenlivet

Brexiteers copiously crying at their exposed deception and spitting blood at Meghan and Harry as a sick reaction!
By Stanley Collymore
Admit it, you clearly gushing
and evidently inured, quite
risibly, fawning royal fans
who, in your so sick twisted minds
are emphatically angry with Harry
and crucially more particularly so especially with Meghan, because
they're jointly and unmistakably
quite effectively shattering your
characteristically, very infantile
fantasy of a massive, farcically
fairy tale, British monarchical
family. For this insider duo of
an ethically clearly insightful
and distinctively, as...

Death of Me
Where do we begin
When from timelessness redemption was born
Eternity reaching into a vapor
To give life meaning
As legacy lives beyond a moment
Ageless to every age
Dead to death in resurrection
I took my first breath when You spoke me
Yet I only find the reason for breathing in speaking Your name
My voice only can carry as far as the words it echoes
When everything I say seeks to re-calibrate to and reverberate truth
Finding my harmony in the melody of You
My symphony finds solace in the orchestra of grace
...

Them & Them
They have organized sports;
They have street level fisticuffs.
They have University Fraternities;
They have Criminal Organizations.
They have tropical vacations;
They have extended vacations.
They have hard knocks;
They have golden parachutes.
Perhaps…
But this is what you must know;
All is motherfucking sorrow.
All is a quest for meaning;
Amidst the lies of material being.
All is interposed with tears;
All is a confrontation with fears.
All is the shedding of blood; ...

Show and Tell Hearts
you're the only thing that makes my breath worthwhile
as I look outside of myself
learning to reach further out to touch someone
lost in a realm where love fails
and blindness is a choice
I'm learning to see
every word a cast to mend the broken
speaking life as a second language
hope like a splint for fractured eyes
obstructed vision, I will not live in the dark...

Hope
I want to live
Praying for any reason
not to make tonight
my very last one
Sweet joys, fond memories
from times long ago
They make me cry
for a life forever lost
I want to breathe
All I do is choke
Past loss, present pain
I see no future
If I can feel
am I still alive?

Care of Heaven
Closed eyes conceal
A dream or something real
Postage care of heaven
Vicarious letters sent
I'm torn between rejoicing
Or my will to lament
Moved to emotion
For a sign from beyond
Forward of subconscious conversation
Sleep talking, not so far gone
Signs personalized
When death is conduit to heal
For all that's past
In this moment I seal
To know that you dwell in a place
Free from this world of decay
When the last moment I had with you
Was just before you passed away
Yet this...
A dream or something real
Postage care of heaven
Vicarious letters sent
I'm torn between rejoicing
Or my will to lament
Moved to emotion
For a sign from beyond
Forward of subconscious conversation
Sleep talking, not so far gone
Signs personalized
When death is conduit to heal
For all that's past
In this moment I seal
To know that you dwell in a place
Free from this world of decay
When the last moment I had with you
Was just before you passed away
Yet this...

Lethal Temptation
Hours away and locked in desire
The cage is enraged with a craving for fire
Action makes intention out to be a liar
Caught in a web made up of wire
My tongue is scorched reform the taste to reacquire
My heart is aflame, I am one with the pyre
Dread for impulse, the cost of an overrated high
The fear of life is the will to die
Facing myself, something inside
When chemicals vainglory is the entrapment of lust and pride
To tell you the truth, there's nothing to tell
But honestly, the body abused is a living hell
Euphoria...
The cage is enraged with a craving for fire

My tongue is scorched reform the taste to reacquire
My heart is aflame, I am one with the pyre

The fear of life is the will to die
Facing myself, something inside
When chemicals vainglory is the entrapment of lust and pride
To tell you the truth, there's nothing to tell
But honestly, the body abused is a living hell

Once Dismal Calling
On thorough
A marrow open
Hollowed forsaken
A terrible mast
Cast over shadow
Onto thee sorrow
Gladly walking
These halls
To the gallows.
Fellow bonds
Shackles unlocked
Tipped off
Light here at end
The worsening
The relent.
Lonesome chalice
Left behind
No sacrament.
Docile sin
Relapsed for the win
A sad grin betrayed
Maps out wonder
Listening following
The crackled thunder
The batting down
Hastened in vain
Elastic...
A marrow open
Hollowed forsaken
A terrible mast
Cast over shadow
Onto thee sorrow
Gladly walking
These halls
To the gallows.
Fellow bonds
Shackles unlocked
Tipped off
Light here at end
The worsening
The relent.
Lonesome chalice
Left behind
No sacrament.
Docile sin
Relapsed for the win
A sad grin betrayed
Maps out wonder
Listening following
The crackled thunder
The batting down
Hastened in vain
Elastic...

fortuitous flutters
Being of the wind
rushing
pulsing,
tumultuous
cyclonic air
blown from
ancient
sourced direction
billowing
and
caressing
taut
promises
born of
chaos
just.
one.
flap.
... and
a butterfly
created
destiny
fortune effects
In the blink
of a multicolored
flutter

tumultuous

Cosmic Design
She said that we couldn't break up and remain friends, the attraction was to great
The desire to forgive and return, is just one of the things that she hate
She enjoyed being elusive and a mystery to all before me
But we communicated on such a level, it was as if she always knew me
But she doesn't like the way that I was always inside of her head
Although she's now with another, I am always inside of her head
Don't get her wrong, to one, her heart is always true
But the cosmic forces have decided that she's always to be my Boo
No one...
