Why we do what we do
There comes a time in each of our lives, that we have to learn to walk away from the very darkness of deepness, with it's negativity that draws us into a different kind of space that's out of this world. 🌎 For sure my question. ❓ TO you is more beneficial, to the well being of your insanity that has taken, over your life even your thoughts and dreams. For my question to you. ❓Why do we do that what we do 😞 when it comes to our relationships, as we choose to stay in a bad situation. For is it out of the love that you have not yet truly received, for is it that you...

“Waiting”
Waiting with insomnia,
My companion to the end.
Eyes closed, heart in pieces;
Too many to mend.
Racing thoughts, going so slow;
Dreams lost, couldn’t find my way.
Gave up long ago-
In supplication I pray.
A path with purpose;
A burden too great.
Dejected and hopeless
I carry this weight.
Unable to understand,
Or misunderstood.
Intention’s become blurred;
Beginning to question what’s good.
Half truths and trusting smiles;
Love laced with complete lies.
Spreading stain of deception
Bleeding before...

Sanity
We spend our whole adult life
Distracting ourselves from losing our
Sanity
Some are just better at it than others
Some of us just give in
Lyrically Inclined

Trapped In Your Swollen Heart
Damaged.
Someone did you wrong.
Now we pay for it.
Shame to the one that did you wrong.
Shame on you for falling for it.
Over and over again.
You’re circling into your own tail.
A toxic circle of dizziness.
Good at times but can you come back?
Will you be trapped in the past?
The guy who hurt her the most she will forever love.
What did we do to pay this price?
What must be done to get what we deserve?

Repeat Offender
Pessimistic fool by nature or so it seems
Always waiting for the other shoe to drop
Past the double talk and random schemes
Still unable to make all this madness stop
Change is inevitable it’s a product of time
Careless actions leading to another bender
Found guilty but never committed a crime
A social stigma spawning a repeat offender
Always waiting for the other shoe to drop
Past the double talk and random schemes
Still unable to make all this madness stop
Change is inevitable it’s a product of time
Careless actions leading to another bender
Found guilty but never committed a crime

Drag story time
Reading books
Drag thoughtful
Pleasure in human flesh
Thoughtful drag
Lifts up my spirits
Just want to exist
In this hateful place
Not putting upon
What makes me be alive
Thoughts in drag
Reasoned and respectful
Why can’t they be one of us
When they give so much love
Not asking for anything special
Just to be realized as human
And not a freak of nature
The only thing they groom

Imposter
Evil lurks, with God's disgrace.
Heaven weeps, as tears lead chase.
Under moon lite nights, and days unbound.
The Devil yearns, hear his wailing howls.
Understand, the prays unturned.
Like summer breeze, on skin that burns.
Find the bliss, from foreign gates.
Miss led trails, and venomous snakes.
Half bitten apples, that knowledge taints.
Robbed by Eve, where Time forsakes.
Notes of lies, that mortals make.
Tunes of tongues, for life will ache.

Deck of Cards (Collab With Duice)
Splitting chakra checkered card
deck reveals a big Joker of hearts
Aligned to be circus clown renown in mastery
to circles in aerial misdirection of arts
A bachelor of scholar in jester
to whimsical false degree starts
Unbalanced on high-rise thread walks
that net catch wild reaction remarks
Cannon fodder for fun launched
on explosions blown sky high
A cardinal jeered by child eyes
or mohawk birdie sky draws nigh...

Reincarnated Rock
Hard as shit.
Stiff as a brick.
Can't tickle me. I'm not giving in.
I love to sin.
Get these hills rolling,
On little kids crossing the bridge.
No more trolling.
I'm Napoleon the smallest fright.
You break me with your dynamite.
My minions will stand and fight.
River pebbles like a slip n slide.
My foes regret this bumpy ride.
Through the waterbed, at great heights.
Spew them down a waterfall,
No wings to fly.
My enemies know they're gonna die.
I laugh on the inside,
Not sure why I commit...

LOVE IN MY ARMS (I)(original 1st draft;1976; Poretto Jetty, Galveston, Texas; struggling with being Gay at 22 yr.s old)
love in my arms
here then gone
comes and goes
like some rare moon tide
so infrequently in my life
sunrise soon brightened
into new day
but it s clarity only added to
my ever deepening
self loathing s confusions
so i chose to stay home
until the sun had gone down
as evening eventually arrived
only a comfortable disguise
