cloudy
my mind turns with the seasons
it is always so
lifting on the airs searching the winds, while I wander
sigh to touch the sky
to fly untethered
my soul reaches out to nature
reading tea leaves and people's faces
an empath I feel so much
which is sometimes too heavy
to escape for a moment to where it's fresh
so often the body makes me feel, clausterphobic
my being longs to be untethered
reaching the limits of my binds
pulling on the restraints
and take off
astral traveling
I return from my voyage ...

Forcing Myself to Write for Some Unknown Reason
I never know what I'm trying to say.
So I wing it.
And, try to write something.
Precise.
Cause,
English is not a good language for poetry.
It sounds so choppy.
So malformed.
Bereft of inspiration.
Borrowed words from passing cultures.
This is narration.
This is the tautology.
Of stating a fact.
Forcing myself to write.
So I don't forget the difference.
Between prose
And.
Poetry.

My Poetic Knife
Resting restlessly within the dark of its sheath,
my poetic knife feels expressionless.
When so, it wants to be drawn
and plundered into the white of the page.
Then it wants to cut through the emptiness
and carve out beautiful metaphors.
The blade will glint in the light of an idea
and will be drenched in the ink of words.

A Thief in the Night
A thief in the night.
Ingenius disguise.
What demon delight.
Completing assigns.
It's eating inside.
Deleting your mind.
Deceitfully hide.
Impeding can lie.
So really rely.
Repeating affright.
Releasing denied.
All cheating defines.
Competing for time.
Unyielding design.
Where seeds have but died.
No breathing confides.
Conceiving combines.
Our evening abides.
Increasing divide.
There we will entwine.
Then sealing and cry.
From...

When is enough an enough
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ FOR let's ask thyself when is enough an enough of the UNTRUTH, that doesn't do anything to help your own self esteem, lifting you up out of the way that leads to the deepness of your pain. 🤔 For when is enough an enough of spending count less minutes and hours, dwelling upon something that we have no real control over. FROM things of the past with it's regrets of mistakes, that only brings back those memories of our hurt and spiritual pain.😞 For sure really when is enough to much to...

Challenges that tested your spirit
Challenges that have tested your spirit and even your own way of thinking, but yet it's still apart of life. For there will always, be challenges in this cycle of life whether, we want to believe it or not for it's still apart of life. For it's imperative for us to truly understand that it's those things that we face that could change on how we view the world and our lives. For example the landscape as change in retrospective to how we choose to live our lives, man to woman and woman to man. But yet it didn't stop there, for now there are those things that we may never truly understand, yet...

How we each see the world
Judge not others until you judge thyself 🙏 How we each see the world is as different as day and night, yet we each have our own opinions on what we see and hear and believe. Yet sometimes we have to learn to understand that, there are those things that we may never truly understand about the government 🤨 For sure as this world is constantly changing right, before our eyes but yet it's times like these often times, the deepness of the truth will reveal itself and awaken your own thoughts and insight and mind. For sure we can agree or disagree, whether right or wrong fits the...

Practice Bars 3
Quite pleasing, I have mastered rhyme rooks.
Skies bleeding science after y'all shook.
My feelings, I don't have them all, look.
Like reading, Isaac Asimov books.
Guised greetings might have masked divine crooks.
Dice leading pirates after spines stood.
Try scheming heights we passed in times took.
Price pleading, private passions might push.
Bright beaming binds the blatherskite foot.
Lines weaving lying lavish like hoof.
Wine, wheat, and rice Saturn giant sook.
Rye seedling blight have acid nights cooked.
Prized...

wonderland
in my head the life I've lived
seems magic and whimsy did a flip
a hand pressed flat against a mirror
and now I'm trapped in underland
turns out the Queen of Hearts
is quite the narc and pretty smart
and I was privileged to be raised in her court,
but the wonder dies when children grow up.
I was never enough.
so let's play pretend
that we're best friends
I'll fake a smile
she'll sigh again
I piss her off
when I see right through
the innocent illusion
gazes locked as we circle ...

The uprising of the rebellion
They say that we all come in peace yet there's those who rather destroy, the true foundation of the Constitution of America, For sure you can't never make a right an wrong, but yet what you can do stop, the evil environments for their own political games. For sure even now as a change is slowly taking place, there are those individuals shills, that still can't handle the truth, that a new change is gonna come through out the world. 🌍 For sure you don't have to believe that what I say, 😤 just do your own research. YET we do have our own opinions and thoughts, on situations that...

What is your dark side
Do you know what is your DARK side effect, that you call upon when you are at a point in your own life. That the things in your life, has taken a real dramatic change of direction, that you start to feel trapped in a vortex of insanity. Follow by just the pain and hurt and confusion, and drama and madness and chaos, with no escape route nor plan. TO move you out of the way. For the elders say that we have the ability to manifest that which is hidden in own spiritual entity. For do you know what your true beliefs, are of what is your spiritual faith, and entity is to you 🤔 For example...

Within the light of hope
There will come a time when you lose your sense of tolerance, and you have become blinded by the negativity that suddenly. Surrounds you that you feel that you have to sacrifice your own thoughts and insight into not believing. THAT you have to be able to separate thyself, in your own spiritual existence reaching far from the negativity. For your own subconsciousness, to be involved in creating, your own best image of yourself. Yet you are told that it's not possible to achieve, that what we see and believe. For sure we will never know what we can't achieve, if you don't believe that we can...
