Yin & Yang
It’s yin and yang,
the dance of light and dark,
each needing the other
to keep life balanced.
We tug at the threads of blame,
claiming truth on either side,
but in reality—
neither of us is always right
nor always wrong.
We move through life,
clutching at self-preservation,
yet sleepwalking in the shadow of our own minds,
unaware of the darkness we fear.
If you fear your shadows,
know this—
you haven’t touched divinity yet,
there’s still more of you to...
the dance of light and dark,
each needing the other
to keep life balanced.
We tug at the threads of blame,

but in reality—

SUDDENLY IT CAME TO ME (Wed., Jan. 8th, 2025, 1:00am, Palm Springs, California)
suddenly
it came to me
in flowing streams
of gleaming liquid veils unfurled
a sacred truth s secret hidden
in these words
within my being
within my soul
whispered given
to by and from
someone somewhere far beyond
this earth this sun
these feelings thoughts
this ink this poem
which descends here now
like some setting inner sun
or ancient knowing moon above
within me here as well
upon this last gloaming line
of it s now soon to be gone...

Words Colony
Out of the blue in my words colony..
On cloud nine in my words colony..
The ball is in my court in a words colony..
As an orphan of words am offering
Not a thanksgiving
Words only written
Something all you tourist must either read, rhyme or reason
Touring in my castle
My name's not Mr. Bean
Am simply a Weevil
Just don't let me see you giggle
Feeding myself with words and chords with this huge ladle
At the same time riding on a bicycle
With a disjointed jaw or let me just say mandible
I bruised all my...

A Shrunken Head For Xmas
If you want to add spice to your living room decor,
Then continue reading and see what's in-store
Maybe you have an enemy you would love to see dead
Maybe a special friend/lover who annoys you to no end
If so, then read these instructions on how to shrink someone's head
Step 1- Find a head. peel the skin away from the skull (hair and all) Sew the eye and mouth openings closed (to trap the soul inside so it won't haunt you) Turn the head inside out. Scrape away the fat using a sharp knife.
Step 2- Cook the head. Add jungle herbs to a pot of water...

“From The Ashes” - My Take
As a Survivor, I can tell you without hesitation there is no such thing as “greater damage” or “worse pain.” If you are a Survivor, your experience, or a series of events, was painful enough to damage you in unimaginable ways. I don’t need to hear what the trauma was, it’s never insignificant if it alters your reality in some measurable fashion. All you need to tell me is“I’m a survivor” and I will know what it means to you. What it means to me. No details required. I’ve also never had another Survivor ask me for the details of my own personal experiences. I don’t waste time comparing notes....

Musical Dimension
To me,music can be used to travel.
To lands far away.
Mysteries,unravel.
And we play it as begin to travel.
We travel to a magical land.
A gate covered by magic.
Where you say the magic words.
And escape anything tragic with a tap.
A click,or a snap.
If you just sing the magic words.
You'll travel new worlds.
And unravel the mysteries of life.
Listen,headphones on and thrive.
As you watch the glowing moon at night.
Maybe you'll go to a concern tonight.
And music,magic will take flight. ...

Gifts.
I met a being along the way.
Who claimed to be from a far away land.
Under who's spell. Enchanted i became.
As they toyed & danced with me.
I went along, aiming to please.
We gave each other gifts.
As you toed me along with strings i was unable to see.
Entangled i became.
Deaf to the thuth. To blind to see.
Till it was to late. You see.
You saw the end, well before me.
Planning accordingly. You severed ties.
Yet retained qualities you liked in me.

A Writers Vows
With this paper and pen, I vow..
To voice out the volumes of words left unsaid.
To spell out the silence of the secrets left unspoken.
I vow,
That my sonnets will speak the language our spirits haven't figured out yet,
That the lines of my limericks will lyric the songs our souls haven't sung yet,
That my haikus will hold and heal our haggard hearts,
That...
My words, wether in prose of verse, written, spoken, raw or rehearsed will silence the voices in our heads, listen..

Nature, Beauty and Ink
It is wise to dive headlong into the wild, close the blind eyes and open the clear mind, its wise to rise from the cluttered mind, infested with recycled cliches and mindset and outworn rotten habits..
..
Rise and stretch the feet that are turned frozen inside a cold seat, a mechanical heat, won't ever warm the cold heart, sun is your hearth, lounge in the open airs and gather as much as you can. and fill the empty inside with heaven's breath...
While time is wide and the plains get greener and flat, decked with poppies and daffodils and daisies..and so many fragrant...

A Message For You
Since today is Thanksgiving, I wanted to reflect on a couple of things.
And no, there will not be any murder, death, debauchery, orgasms, bizarre antics or twisted endings in this message. I'll save that for tomorrow.
I've been here since January of 2024. I have enjoyed this site immensely. The best part of this site was reading other people's poetry. Were all different. We all tackle life the way we believe it should be tackled. Your viewpoints and ideas we'll probably be different then mine or someone else's. That's ok. It creates a unique individual that will shed light...

It Takes A Million Negative Thoughts
It takes so much conscious effort to have a few positive thoughts that become fleeting.
I want to give myself credit in a way many haven't.
And even though I'm still scared I have a victim mentality and scared that I'm making excuses, I know I'm a boss who takes care of herself and accepts that I need a comfortable life and that's why I'm still living here. I can handle it, and I will get out of my mom's. I will through the story, Free. I will become free by writing Free!
And even though I constantly worry that Josh can't love me and no one else ever will,...

A quite ride in the wake of summer
in the twilight silence; shy sun flickers in the distance, inside a fleet of hazy clouds
dangling between sky and mountain, its disk faintly dissolving leaving a flaming trail. westward floating......
Cicling joyfully into the west, thinking of the olden summers, the young runners,and the small toddlers......
my bike challenges the wind of a quiet evening tide, as the path starkly, solely echos the galvanized tires....................
i would willingly go faster, but the silence of the route was just a flowing poetry to be rhymed,A moment to be...
