Characters in my story... TheOralizer
Your hieroglyphic ideographic writing,
minted in gold on bare stone,
It is a spectacle of ancient elegance
and timeless majesty.
Each symbol, meticulously engraved,
shines with a golden light that contrasts
with the austere coldness of stone.
The lines and curves of hieroglyphs
capture an ethereal beauty,
while the precision of art
is a testament to the skill
and dedication required to create such work.
The gold, shining and pure,
gives a feeling of opulence and solemnity,
transforming...

YOU
You are special
You are unique
You are powerful
You are equipped
You are knowledgeable
You are smart
You are important
You are valuable
You are loved...but,
always remember that
You are alone!

homeless
the night's
cold is
apparently
unaware
of what
it is
doing
to me,
it is
creeping
onto
my skin,
finding
its way
to
my bones,
and by
morning,
i may be
as cold
as the
night was,
unless the
sun can
save me.

Never Enough Dough
My life feels like
when you have
rolled out the dough
into a thin mat
then as you cut
each small cookie
there isn't enough dough
to fill the last one
but you can't just waste
some fresh dough
so you throw it
in the oven anyway.
And it bakes
into a solid cookie
that cannot be
changed
except maybe with
frosting
you could try and
cover it up
but a corner will
always
be
missing.

Sitting on a Tree (In Nippon)
Sittin on a tree (in Nippon)
Fungi glows green
High in a tree
In sweet Japan
Land of shogun
Backed by samurai in the
Island of emperors
Koi in the pond and
Porcelain kimonos
Kamikaze divine wind with
Kabuki dance and martial arts
Origami with Geisha girls
Green tea sushi sake’…don’t forget ramen
Naruto and Godzilla with Pokémon
Sumo hits a baseball
Manga chasing Anime
Kobe beef so tender and savory
Sapporo had Olympics and a beer museum
A wise...

The Poet
Am I the thinker, fated to dwell at hell's dark gate?
The words, like storms, crash in my skull—
relentless, pleading to be written, a curse or gift, I ask God?
I can whisper beauty so soft it curls into your soul,
and in that moment, we are the only ones who exist.
You blink, bewildered, and say, "How do you do this?
I've confessed to you things I’ve never dared to speak, not even to my therapist."
It starts with a simple question—"If you could pick a memory to relive what would it be and why?"
I watch you slip away, carried by...

Cowboy In A Suit
There’s a mystique when a cowboy dons a suit,
A charisma so innate, it leaves me in pursuit—
Not of him, not lust’s unyielding snare,
But of the force that makes people stop and stare.
Like the wind, stirring dreams in those who dare.
He strides in, six-foot-two, with the gift of gab,
Words spinning webs, conversations like firelight.
How intoxicating to witness such command—
A lion prowling, hunger veiled in charm.
Alpha? Never declared, simply is.
Confidence unspoken, a grin that disarms.
No seams tailored,...

Step In My Circle
They’ll call me the greatest, and I haven’t even published yet. Fans and critics already circle, craving words that burn with raw, unfiltered passion. Sorry, kids—nothing you’ve got comes close to what I bring. Let me torch the poetry community and rebuild it on my terms.
I’ve been waging a war of words since I was thirteen. Someone once asked if I feared thieves stealing my work. I laughed. Take one, and I’ll write ten more in thirty minutes.
It’s not cockiness—it’s my ego, unapologetic and earned.

Wabi-Sabi
In my wabi-sabi, imperfection, and melancholy as
the weight is lifted from my shoulder with the
the essence of something blue, and the ups and
downs with moments of silence shared with my
muse beneath a shadow, come tomorrow of
intimacy with my wabi-sabi

Hate Me
I know it drives you crazy,
Searching, trying to find the reason why you hate me.
I've seen it time and time again—
Someone fixates on a person like me,
Keeping record of all that I do,
Trying to undo their nemesis, every syllable.
So I say, stop—don’t go down this road,
For it will drive you mad.
I am creation!
I am all the flaws you see in yourself.
Deep down, you know it’s not really me that undoes you.
I sit in the fire you try to hide—
The rage, the depression, the jealousy.
I am all the emotions you deny. ...
