The Land Of Childhood Dreams
There is a town far away.
That we can access,night and day.
There lives our childhood hopes and dreams.
That are real,and not on ocean screens.
There is full of memories and laughter.
Where adventure awaits.
Where you never lose the ticket to.
And you get nostalgia filled plates.
They say it goes once you grow up far away.
But you can access it any day.
You can feel the nostalgia.
You can feel the bliss.
Like the emotions you felt gave you a forehead kiss.
There are all your memories and friends. ...

Regurgitated Rumination
Remember that time
When we were happy?
The noise of the world
Could not stop us
Though they slapped us
With desperate warnings
We wrote them off
As jealous nothings
Together we broke
Molds and habits
At the end of the day
We did not give two shits
Discarded their sayings
Those stark warnings
Discounting every word
to live wholeheartedly
We ignored wisdom
Gave into delirium
To live our life of beauty
To live in hedonism
When we were happy?
The noise of the world
Could not stop us
Though they slapped us
With desperate warnings
We wrote them off
As jealous nothings
Together we broke
Molds and habits
At the end of the day
We did not give two shits
Discarded their sayings
Those stark warnings
Discounting every word
to live wholeheartedly
We ignored wisdom
Gave into delirium
To live our life of beauty
To live in hedonism

Memory
I tell myself
“Do not indulge in memories
of how, before abandonment,
she musicked ,won,
my Oxford nights
with all the feral whisperings
that she once made
close to my ear
of heated love for me.”
What use is there
in doing so
except to be undone.

Attention K-Mart Shoppers
Jennifer, who would ever think that your trail would end at K-Mart
Did anyone tell you?
If you were alive right now
I mean if your brains hadn't been blown out of your skull with that shotgun you put to it
Would you have believed you would have done such a thing?
Jennifer, you didn't see what I saw
Oh girl,
Some kid had a hunk of your brains in a cheeseburger wrapper and was showing it to people
I went to the place where you shot yourself
You know the place I'm talking about
You were there about 26 hours before me
Jennifer, I searched...

Her Yes
Her yes
once said to me
so fervently
with promises
of heated yeses yet to come
and multiplied
are buried now within the past.
And yet,
it lies inside my memory
as song.
and still
despite my wish
my will,
a culling embering

A Poem for My Ex-wife
Ping Ling, what made you love me the way you did?
You didn’t hesitate to say yes the evening I proposed to you.
And you quickly put the engagement ring on your finger.
You knew that I loved you as must as you loved me.
We vowed to stay with each other until death separated us.
Never did we think our marriage would end in divorce.
Though many years have passed, I won’t stop missing you.
I’ll still love you, no matter how long we stay apart.
Every time I look at our wedding picture, my heart aches for you.
When we became one flesh,...

A Slow Demise
Like old photographs,
memories fade over time
Part of me has died
memories fade over time
Part of me has died

The storm
My life was once perfect, a dream come true,
Wrapped in warmth, like morning light breaking through.
But then came CPS, like a storm in the night,
Unleashing a tempest, dimming my light.
Demolishing the haven where memories grew,
Tearing through my soul, leaving shadows askew.
Half dead with despair, a heart in disarray,
Each piece of my laughter, now drifting away.
The smiles that once danced in the corners of rooms,
Have faded to whispers, choked by the gloom.
No more laughter, no more joy, just...
Wrapped in warmth, like morning light breaking through.
But then came CPS, like a storm in the night,
Unleashing a tempest, dimming my light.
Demolishing the haven where memories grew,
Tearing through my soul, leaving shadows askew.
Half dead with despair, a heart in disarray,
Each piece of my laughter, now drifting away.
The smiles that once danced in the corners of rooms,
Have faded to whispers, choked by the gloom.
No more laughter, no more joy, just...

what time does the floor show start?
..that is the question I
always asked myself
when my drunken father
came staggering home
with my mom sitting
on that worn out old
couch waiting for him
and his worthless den
full of lion lies and vodka
excuses
I had a front row seat
and I didn't have to pay
one red cent to see the
whole dammed show
now that's what I
call entertainment

It's another year in my life
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️. 111 It's here at this moment in my life with another year in my life, coming that I am truly grateful and thankful and blessed. To be able to see another day in my life. For tomorrow is a blessing for me, on my 66 birthday. 🎉🎂 For sure it's on this day I silently reflect upon my life, as I journey and travel and walk the last four years of my own life. FOR let's go back to 2002 when I had a spinal infusion and I was unable to walk, 😭 or stand on my own two feet alone. 😔 IT was that moment in...

To My Old Self....
To my old self,
I apologize for turning out this way.
You held high hopes for the future —
I crushed them down,
all in vain.
one by one,
broke the promises we made,
lost your essence,
realized it too late.
Will I disappoint you,
if I became the adult we hated?
In moments of loneliness and despair,
I wish you were here,
to heal the wounds
with your love and care.
I tried to be
what we wished for,
but nothing ever seemed to work.
I brought more trouble.
I asked you to leave,
just to...

Torn For Eternity
Take your place within the fire
Let the flames consume and churn
They feed upon your mortal desire
Reducing souls to ash for an urn
The image of life begins to fade
Flickering shadows of the past
Skin peels as fire’s blade is laid
A tormenting burn to forever last
Opulence born of human pride
Meets its end at the threshold’s flare
Under burning wrath, no sins can hide
Cleansing flames lay the spirit bare
Lost to heat in a foreign sphere
Where the damned and broken are wed
The air reeks thick of sulphurous...
Let the flames consume and churn
They feed upon your mortal desire
Reducing souls to ash for an urn
The image of life begins to fade
Flickering shadows of the past
Skin peels as fire’s blade is laid
A tormenting burn to forever last
Opulence born of human pride
Meets its end at the threshold’s flare
Under burning wrath, no sins can hide
Cleansing flames lay the spirit bare
Lost to heat in a foreign sphere
Where the damned and broken are wed
The air reeks thick of sulphurous...
