Loosing The Light
Cracks in the armor start to appear
How long before they figure it out?
Surely someone will sense the fear
That lingers behind this self-doubt
Falling fast into this desperate abyss
When was the last time it was silent?
The punchline was a swing and a miss
As a spectator quickly became violent
Flaming tongues searing paper flesh
How long till this soul bares the mark?
These lies are old but the pain is fresh
Loosing the light only leaves the dark

Truths we would like to hear
How refreshing would it be if we heard a politician say:
I don't believe in God and I don't believe in the protection and welfare of our citizens, their health & their safety
I plan on placing my friends in executive positions
I will pocket what funds I can get away with, but see that the rest is spent on my election
You will have no voice in my decisions any more then you ever had
You will have to accept my judgement, which you will have no choice
If I succeed in fooling the public, the public will have themselves to blame...

These Days - A Collaboration With WillowsWhimsies
Where are the real souls
Unafraid to be themselves
Scarred and raw with honest words
Why are hands more often open
Than hearts and minds
More willing to take than share
What happened to unapologetic truth
Finding joy in less than more
Opening windows rather than closing doors
Who said it was okay
To make emotions unavailable
In the name of not getting hurt
I’d give my next heartbeat
To receive true sincerity
But it seems these days that’s a rarity
Unafraid to be themselves
Scarred and raw with honest words
Why are hands more often open
Than hearts and minds
More willing to take than share
What happened to unapologetic truth
Finding joy in less than more
Opening windows rather than closing doors
Who said it was okay
To make emotions unavailable
In the name of not getting hurt
I’d give my next heartbeat
To receive true sincerity
But it seems these days that’s a rarity

Like Water for Chocolate*
In the movie, after a life of cruelty
Evil Mama Elena's ghost
struck out one last time
against Love after death
That's what evil does
when it's exposed;
it plays the victim
to garner sympathetic attention—
attempts to destroy Light
strikes below the belt
with inuendo on its way out
rather than admit
its own wrong doings
( or alternate accounts )
SPOILER ALERT:
Truth overcomes—
so forgive yourself first
for years of deception ...

WHAT IS TRUE LOVE in
The eclipse of the moon is a eclipse of the sun, as it hides a change is gonna come as the same is true. FOR love is our happiness and support and encouragement, and respect with honesty and truth and trust. For sure we are still human beings, just looking for the betterment of our lives and life. YET with a positive level of substance in our relationship, that they are still by our side in the good times and the bad times. As in love with respect and supporting us together as one. That with a real honest commitment and consistency, and real communications between us. AS twin flames one...

Betrayal
winding in the energies, riding the winds
realizing my power I no longer withhold
letting it ride I right some wrongs
distant thunder the wind picks up speed
dispersing the dark building in me
ignoring my power thinking it wasn't manifesting anyway
with a nod to the festering hole in me
coming from the Onyx Kingdom I use calculation and wait
treachery is afoot
like my Father of all dominions I am listening
paying close attention to all his movements
because the devil is in the detail
and he whispers I'm missing...
realizing my power I no longer withhold
letting it ride I right some wrongs
distant thunder the wind picks up speed
dispersing the dark building in me
ignoring my power thinking it wasn't manifesting anyway
with a nod to the festering hole in me
coming from the Onyx Kingdom I use calculation and wait
treachery is afoot
like my Father of all dominions I am listening
paying close attention to all his movements
because the devil is in the detail

Littered in Shame but Not Sorry
We did that
It was messy but that's where the lust lay
When the guilt bit hard
You wanted to be friends
We all know that's bullshit
Crash and burn lullaby
Nobody survives that unscathed
Then finally we became nothing
I don't hate you
I don't feel nothing
I don't even want to grudge fuck ya
Remember the old days
Bending you over my work desk
On overtime no less
Getting paid for our sins
That was something
We are a zero sum babe
I don't know if you cheated on me
We were already cheating on...
It was messy but that's where the lust lay
When the guilt bit hard
You wanted to be friends
We all know that's bullshit
Crash and burn lullaby
Nobody survives that unscathed
Then finally we became nothing
I don't hate you
I don't feel nothing
I don't even want to grudge fuck ya
Remember the old days
Bending you over my work desk
On overtime no less
Getting paid for our sins
That was something
We are a zero sum babe
I don't know if you cheated on me
We were already cheating on...

Ladies have you ever noticed how men?
love you more when their cocks are in your hands.
tell you things you want to hear so they can use you without fear.
treat you differently before and after you've milked them dry.
can break your heart and walk away but return with lies for one more lay.
know nothing about a womans parts and even less about their hearts.
will revert to type when denied what they expect.
are all the bloody same.
P.S
I know these things because I was one of those men, back in the day.
And discuss!

Necropolis-a-lago
As suspected, Bibi was in cahoots,
with global conservatives that include
the genocide jingo MAGA galoots
jonesing for Mediterranean crude.
Where now are the cries of "Genocide Joe"?
Now that Trump reveals the master plan
of Levantine resorts with oil below
at the beckon call of the master man...
arms akimbo over the smoking bones
of countless families for each guilty dude,
which no holocaust ghost likely condones,
as they know too well the cost of a feud...
a lesson lost on MAGA ambition ...

Tinseltown (collab with Vision_of_insanity)
Plastic people, faux life
Celebrities shine,
Amongst the pain & strife
An illusion of a directors thoughts
Cesspool in Eden
Pleasing the studio boss
Artificial in everything that's seen
Pictures of beauty
Reality is a dream
Never think more then you know
A testament to your image
Look your best, before the show
Wading in a shallow pool
Drink it up like a fool.
Trees a plenty and lost inside.
A forest, crazies, come to hide.
Hollywood, shining bright.
The stars, flickering, through...

unexplainable draw
Beneath the surface
there's a blackhole of secrets
where trust was devoured
by the gravity of lies.
A smile, a porcelain mask,
delicate and fragile,
concealing the cracks
of betrayal beneath.
Each word spoken,
an origami fold,
Intricate and beautiful.
Battles within the hearts.
Yet a cuckoo's call
that echoed
as the whirlpool's pull
became too strong to resist.
there's a blackhole of secrets
where trust was devoured
by the gravity of lies.
A smile, a porcelain mask,

Battles within the hearts.
Yet a cuckoo's call
that echoed
as the whirlpool's pull
