what if...nevermind (featuring 3rdEYErising)
I'm tired of the what if game
no longer willing to play
what did what if ever fix
wondering never undid shit
& I live in reality
where change occurs only by my actions
choices & behaviors adjusted
what if is a daydream I can't afford
a shapeless creation only affected by my imagination
if...I cause it to happen
take the clay of that daydream
& mold it into what I have in mind
what if is but a prompt
a kick in the ass
only as valuable as I choose to make it
but as an idle occupation...
...it's time...

Ethereal Essence
Ethereal essence
Imagined upon
Whence transpiring
Direct discourse
What the riddle
Ransacked inside of
Empty space
To collect stars
Heart judges
Defining mind
Where turning
Spirit searches
Presumed wonder
Breath relative
Connecting sight
Taking time
Demons have
Stealth in secrecy
Adverting codes
Lying unto
Wearing color
Binary affinity
These dreams
Thieves wanting
Stolen aura
Seeking broadcast
Encircling closure ...

that's Ms Square Peg, thanks...
who defines madness
or what is right & improper
which roads taken are meant to deliver one...
...to an expected destination
astounds me to think there should be only one
a prescribed sense of normality
it escapes me
I exist in the inverse
juxtapositions in my composition
reality jacked...hijacked...reversed
shaken to my bones by loud unexpected sounds
I will jump near out of my skin & howl
but equally startled when silence crashes
into the cacophony taking place in the confines of my mind
I tremble walking alone...

Pendulum
A pendulum swings, as glances centerfold position of shadow.
Spiraling gravity lineage pushes.
Ahead, the turns of compound concentration amass.
Behind, an accelerated light blurs an escaping momentum.
It's time.
To find a way out.
I am released like a cannonball from a cannon, exploding into the night.
Resolution.
Exponential expanse.
Foundation.
Squaring the chance.
Alas, in the open.
Through the hollow, a coursing sight is captured.
The world.
Backbone stability.
All of the deception, secrecy. ...

This is a mild forenoon, winter coats
are put aside
Some men wear shorts and show hairy white legs
Elderly ladies are walking their lap-dogs
snappy little beast eyeing every passerby
they won the big dog lottery, guard their prize
a human for life.
A road sweeper with his wheelie bin walks by
the pavements are clean this day, but he crosses
the road among the bushes, an empty packet
of crisp, with his gloved hand ( yes
for heavens
sake,) deposit the empty packed in the bin
He wheels his bin under a...

the wealthy couple
The wealthy couple
who live on an island in the Far East
but once a year, they visit Europe
every year when I see them, they have changed
Alas, I wish it had been for the better
both are followers of a health regime concocted
by a Guru of the type that prays on the rich
they are now advanced middle-aged (below 61
and in the hope of staving off the time of elderliness
they trim and live on a lettuce a day.
Their effort are valiant but in vain time always win
At a distance and in the afternoon light, they look fine
like...

3 seconds of thought
wisdom?
no i am not she.
that was dumb, why did i do that?
they know i’m stupid now.
that was rude, why did i say that?
that probably hurt their feelings.
i have been so much for so many,
do i have to be wise?
must i be friend?
can i be lover?
will i be successful?
am i perfect?
goodnight.
each wake i savor the seconds of pure me,
when i am nothing and only myself!
then i hear it all.
mouths around me yelling, screaming, crying, laughing.
they are hungry. ravenous. ...

Sovereign Achievement
A problem was deceiving all.
Canonical, materials.
Denominal, criteria.
Impossible, obsequious.
To honor the appearance of.
Inaugural, imperious.
Phenomenal, imperial.
Demonstrable, empirical.
What sovereign achievement brought.
Performable, anterior.
Reformable, ulterior.
Unstoppable, superior.
Distorted once it equals us.
Methodical, exterior.
Inaudible, mysterious.
Unsolvable, interior.
Our common trust repeats as wants.
Remarkable, inebriant.
Rhetorical, inferior. ...

fire and ghosts
the fire
lit up
ghosts,
they glided
around
the black
sands
of death,
exiled
from home,
dancers
trespass
through
these dreams.

The Celebration Of Femineity
I was the conductor of the Underground Railroad for eight years, and I can say what most conductors can't say; I never ran my train off the track and I never lost a passenger.
Harriet Tubman
I am a little late; however, the celebration continues for the creation of us women given unto man as a gift from the Almighty Creator.
In the midst of my femininity, I had my Annual gynecological with fasting lab, I had a dental cleaning, no cavities, my gums are still healthy and not receding.
What is meant when you say Woman’s International Day...

A Deck of Cards
A Deck of Cards
There’s Chess, Checkers, Parcheesi and Bingo, Monopoly and games galore
but imbedded, ingrained in a deck of cards is immersed the wisdom of yore.
The Heart is the Animal Kingdom, the Club the Kingdom of Plants.
The Diamond reigns over the Minerals and the Spade has Metal stance.
They are elements of Fire and Air and those of Water and Earth
from the Valley of Kings on the banks of the Nile at the time of Egypt’s birth.
The King and Queen and Jack together are the Trinity we hold so dear.
Twelve like those in a deck of cards...

I Did Not Write The Commandments (The Scrolls Of Moses)
Man did not chisel the commandments in stones
Our divine truth has always stood for a soul to hear alone
Center yourself, inhale, when the soul requires cleansing, allow Mother Nature to hear your invocation, your prayers as the universal atones
To the question, asked of the Creator at best
No, this stratosphere is not at a peaceful second awakening, it has manifested chaos, disunity, where His begotten son cried out in vain, as depravity among mankind, where Angels have wept
Only the realization of intellectual overload when...
