Built Different
I generate my own fire
I just need room to breathe
Opportunity to get behind
immune to a confidants belief
High strung excitable energy
even sleep bangs the drum
Anxiety is CHAOS
receive as perceived and succumb
Black Lion lives matter
this one forms the heart of Voltron
Every limb competes ferocious
best believe the bite brawn
My preference is meeting calamities
ROARING face forward
To collect scars across the chest
as Achievement awards
That’s speaking in General
on ink stars of war topics ...

A story of Mom and me (and you)
Just a girl in the 40s with expansive thoughts,
wearing pigtails and coke-bottle glasses --
they knew she was different; they even ran tests,
but found no diagnosis to label
a girl with a hunger and singular drive
to unpack the whole human condition.
She did it through books, for she wasn’t content
to just live her one given life.
In search of connection, the characters there
were as real as the ones in the flesh.
And though she did marriage, and children, and jobs,
it was story that held her attention.

The Hollow Bloom
The echo hums where silence breeds, detaching, fading, dissipating,
A river flows, yet never stays, refracting, bending, disappearing,
Its current carves through stone unseen, eroding, shaping, liberating.
The self dissolves, a mist in shade, unraveling, shifting, elevating,
What binds the form but empty seeds? Decaying, blooming, vanishing,
A breath that speaks, yet none remain, unknowing, drifting, meditating.
A lotus drowns where mirrors break, reflecting, shattering, recomposing,
The dream of self, a whispered veil elapsing, wilting,...

Heart of gold
In the end those hearts made of gold
Are still just made of stone
Are still just made of stone

The farthest back I can remember, there were already forms…forms, faces, locations. I remember seeing them and watching them like I was a viewer with no body of my own. It all felt familiar but mostly random. The people and the places didn’t seem to match and would often switch without reason. I remember feeling very strong connections to many of the images I saw, but I cannot refine a memory to a particular emotional reaction to a particular scenario.
I have no way to measure how long things went on like that, but, eventually, the forms and faces and...

Friendship Divine
our hearts are entwine
in a bond called friendship
its friendship so divine
it transcends love of all kind
we are together through thick and thin
we are each other's sanctuary within
where the treasure of our feelings dwell
beyond every pleasures that's carnal
you are my guiding light
a pillar of strength, thick and thin
in you I give my trust
always there, my safe haven
You are one I cherish that I hold dear
my true friend, my treasure
in a bond called friendship
its friendship so divine
it transcends love of all kind
we are together through thick and thin
we are each other's sanctuary within
where the treasure of our feelings dwell
beyond every pleasures that's carnal
you are my guiding light
a pillar of strength, thick and thin
in you I give my trust
always there, my safe haven
You are one I cherish that I hold dear
my true friend, my treasure

The Evolution Of A Mad Genius
energies felt and absorbed...
was light the first technology based orb?
placed upon a grid of both math and molecule build
amassed locomotion to realize the visions being seen
building block by block
a mad genius of mass proportions
sound may have been the first break iin understanding
a language understood or sung
the sun is largely made of up nuclear energy
solar flairs tears apart mars
there was technology their at one time...it seems
as well as a healthy atmosphere
advanced...

Eyes
When televisions first became household objects,
some people were scared to undress in front of them,
the convex and glaucomic eye staring,
pervert cyclops, invader in the living room.
These days of course the eyes are much smaller,
rectangular, and with us at all times, not just
when mother’s home with fish-and-chips to eat before
a black-and-white broadcast. Eyes follow us about.
When I was young and gay, and gay, the unrestricted
internet reached out with slimy hands and claimed
a lot of naive boys and girls, the eyes ...

The "Gods load was to much"
From the beginning of time when the Gods created the earth 🌎!!
Much work needed to be done, the Gods became fatigued and needed a people you would say the chosen 🙏 one's!!
The one's to take up the load and make sure 👍 that the earth 🌎 was well groomed and properly done!
The Gods came all together like care ❤ bears 🐻 in unison!!
As they stared Adam and Eve suddenly appeared, to populate and groom the earth 🌎 the Gods load!!
On earth their generations were left to bare!!
