house of mimes
what comes to mind- when you imagine a house of mimes? I'd like to imagine at most communicationwise-ASMR vibes- I'd like to imagine nature before every living animal had arised- are deeply innerstood by these archetypes....
I'd like to imagine- a community that genuinely harmonized; I'd like to imagine with many of the "conflicts" known to man- wouldn't arise due to a synchronicity actualized....
a house of mimes?... a corrupted mind would judge and overly criticize; nonverbal interactions- the energy from these types would hit with a stronger...

Butter And Guns
Gee, you are seeing this, right
And it is happening before our private jet flight
The News is, saying some terrorist got ambushed
Everybody pipe down, please, so I can hear, we have to make sure every mile we push
This development would mean, we will have to take a detour
Just make sure the bounty is contained, knock him out if you must, if so, execute more
The next state over...
We got protection and an escort leaving the city, once we cross state line, no Cuban helicopters will hover
Good...

Dead in the Water
Since these illegals are being sent back
The motherfuckas have the nerve of being mad at the blacks,
“Understand this illegal bitches we really don’t care
It’s on that same level as unwanted shit-stains in underwear,
“Blacks to the white man served them as slaves
Only considered property and treated like an animal in a cage,
“And like a limp dick many were left to hang
As punishment or enjoyment without remorse or shame,
“Realize to all immigrant motherfuckas-black blood is the foundation
For many to...

A Cosmic Harmony
Are we all not made of flesh and bone?
Are we not living souls with a purpose?
Searching for eternal happiness
In the grand scheme of all things.
Do we not bleed the same color?
Or shed tears when we feel pain,
Do we all not feel hunger pangs?
Don’t we all thirst for knowledge?
Although we look different on the outside,
Our insides are pretty much the same,
But our intellect can even be united,
Through a cosmic harmony.
Race is a made up word by governments,
To measure us, to classify us putting us in a box, ...

Echoes of Unfulfilled Kindness
The choice is already there,
Shadowed by grievances, full of hunger to be elsewhere;
Someplace that fulfills all your greed,
So you can show kindness to those
You have left behind.
Shadowed by grievances, full of hunger to be elsewhere;
Someplace that fulfills all your greed,
So you can show kindness to those
You have left behind.

evolution~ I am my Fathers daughter
the visions came and I denied them entry
unlike the others I prefer the matrix
enslaving the human race
but they are honest if not free
possibly depraved but true about it
the enforcers are cold and calculating except with their own
their younglings are adored
the cracks in the wallpaper were hard to miss
great jagged black lines
on weathered blue daisies no less
even the daisies long to be elsewhere
their approach unmistakable, I hear them in my mind
and see them enjoying the riches of life
they are heavy...

Phimosis,

however,
a nevermoredyingosis

Bursitis,

humanity
my soul hurt, I could feel my brothers and sisters ache
it was like a constant pain that throbbed in the background
and I carry it year in and out
a heaviness of feeling that I could put down for a moment
then it was yoked to my soul again
every cut, every burn, callous words and injustices
when a being hurt I hurt with them
anxiety would build and the pressure would start
such a powerful feeling, being connected to these old souls
I bear their burden with them
never seeing their faces but knowing their pain intimately ...

Dunkelflaute
Doom laden skies held, not one breath, of wind
Under the achromatic mantle, torpidity binged
No turbine turned, there was no sunlight power
Kismet ordained, to drain, every megawatt hour
Eerie evenings, turned countrysides, into tundra
Lights burned bright, until the blackouts umbra
From the murk, came night and the cloying cold
Listlessly lingering, from the valley, to the wold
And dawn would seep, then creep, into each day
Unfolding itself into the simplicity, of bitter grey
Though time inexorably passed, beneath the veil
Enveloped, by...

January
January lingers, cold and slow
I wonder how you are, where the streets go.
do the days treat you kind?
I wish I could walk with you, leave no step behind.

"Poetic Justice "
aspirations to engage the right side of this brain as much as the left; there are blockages that occasionally make me want to literally bull rush my head- into concrete wall....
as if I could ever express or manifest something at all so profound that it resurrects necessary spirits from the dead- to somehow help magically bring about a way to save those that were never meant for this earthly🌎 existential dread....
because no matter where one goes- there one is; a species bearing witness to...

broken
tender understanding, I am breaking
broken pieces being battered by a mighty wind
an empath feeling the groans of others
I feel each strike like it's my own body
fears hunt my mind while I sleep
we are in the hands of something larger than ourselves
connecting on the air I shelter those I can
with my voice shout against injustice
if I were to dwell on it, I would blow away as ash
leaving little help to those who surround me
with quiet courage I hold onto the good
the dark is always willing to talk
to take me...
