My Mind's Hernia
In my words the human soul
no pretense to my mind's hernia
unraveling darkness that lingers
like threads as I surrender
to the teeth on my pillow
and a penny for the old fool
waiting for my pound of flesh
deboning my misery
kicking seance beneath the table...

The Fairy's Mirror
Loss of limb;
Call it in I'm
Quick to please but I've been knee deep in
with the imps -
and the aqueous fiends -
they smile as they pull you into their
petty bullshit
Cost of sin is
Sleeping so thin that
The veil is arranged in accordance
with the textbook examples of;
Esoteric symbols painted
all over your bedroom
They're gonna find you.
So call it in
Couldn't have just waited it out
and gone home when things cooled down
no I knew I needed an excuse so...
I had to cut...
Call it in I'm
Quick to please but I've been knee deep in
with the imps -
and the aqueous fiends -
they smile as they pull you into their
petty bullshit
Cost of sin is
Sleeping so thin that
The veil is arranged in accordance
with the textbook examples of;
Esoteric symbols painted
all over your bedroom
They're gonna find you.
So call it in
Couldn't have just waited it out
and gone home when things cooled down
no I knew I needed an excuse so...

Yin and Yang .
I am homesick for a place . I am not sure even exists. One where my mind and body are not at war , but accept peace. Work on an appeasement plans , I’ve paid enough in reparations a monthly instalment of high apr and drainage like a sewer. Those days , when my mind won and my body was left behind again . I don’t know how anyone walks or talks when there heart isn’t in cohesion .I just want a state of equilibrium. My forever home smelling of yin and yang ten drops of Cinnamon and 10 of chamomile and buckets loads of feng shui I mean that sounds like a plan and maybe I may find the balance act...

What she is
Unclothed
By the pestilence of time
She roam the Earth
As she exposed her scars
The very relics
That reminded her
Of her dark past
In her heart, the flame
Unleashed from the depth
of her own hell
She silently spilled
every vile she kept
Till anger and hate, all sorted out
And dealt with
In her mind, her own beauty resides
Consuming every good thought
That she could think of
She adhered to positivity
over negativy
Escalating herself
And her own individuality
In her soul...
By the pestilence of time
She roam the Earth
As she exposed her scars
The very relics
That reminded her
Of her dark past
In her heart, the flame
Unleashed from the depth
of her own hell
She silently spilled

Till anger and hate, all sorted out
And dealt with
In her mind, her own beauty resides
Consuming every good thought

The Other Side
Sometimes I stop and stare at myself,
not in a mirror though, never in a mirror.
Personally, I feel like I look better in a window,
I always have.
There's just something about my reflection in a window.
Maybe the window enhances my looks.
I'm not really sure, but I think it does.
I wish I looked like the me on the other side.
I am you,
you are me,
looking in the window.
I would give myself a like but I’m on the wrong side.

Twelve by Twelve .
Is twelve times twelve
One hundred and forty four .
She almost wanted to laugh this is absurd ,
Yes she replied with absolute certainty
She knows this , from kindergarten,
It’s a formula and a fact , she likes
that , it like her comfort blanket ,
He asks her , are you valuable as you
are now he hits a nerve , it responds
by itself, pulsating under pressure,
Now she is grasping for words ,
Well yes but if I ……….
He sat and watched her face , and
he could almost see her flinch . He
said let’s get to know this IF...

planet Norway
Planet Norway calling
We see a TV program from Norway, a smallish nation bent on becoming green, building windmills on top of mountains and in the sea, filling the landscape with rotating blades that have an annoying sound and does not make the famous landscape more prettier.
You see, to finance this dream of an unsullied nation at ease with itself, it has to sell polluting oil and gas by the tankers full and the more expensive the electric dream becomes, more oil and gas must be sold..
To reason to the leaders of this electric manic disorder, is impossible they act...

Why me?
Why me? Self expression is prevalent. Why me?
S/E is dead!
There's nothing to see. Too see behind my art,is interestingly irrelevant,
why attach a name,to a myth,that is too be wished,torn apart,
pieces drifting toward art. Intuition,I'm tired,trying analyze me.
Aesthetically uninfluenced,as I said. Why me?
Stop drawing attention to individuals behind art,as they may obscure,in particular,
the idea of art. Why me?
Exposed,male domination, personally convicted.
Where is the best terminator,similar,familiar.
No,Why me?

Beans on Toast and an Egg
You know life lies and so does your mind every nerve ending has been fried by to much information and the passage of time . You don’t think your beans and toast
and that egg on the side gives two hoots about who ate them last and why and who will next ?. That’s living on the edge coz it’s minus the worry and anxiety and the stress . I told you our minds are misinterpreting and complicating our lives . A self help guide How to live your best life by Hovis remember the boy on the bike . It’s as good for you as it’s always been with a good dose of Heinz and with additional credits to the...

The day I met "31st Of March"Descartes.
"Je Pense Donc Je Suis."
I wish I had come up with that.
Quite,maybe Descartes and I,
can drink,till the day turns to night.
"Nadhani Kwa Hivyo Mmini."
In which,we shall debate until.
The daylight, philosophical,as ever,Descartes.
Very heady and unsteady.
Will shout out,in his dulcet tone.
"I think I need to sleep.
Therefore,
I am. very tired."
"Cogito,ergo sum."

Something nature
You have haunted rooms,that you need to tend too.
Insist on a none acquiescent nature.
Show us your claws.
I dare you to.
It's hilarious,how you play "Goody-to-shoes."
Look into your dark.
