Recovery of the Future
I'm negative, ya dont have to say it
I know what you're thinking
Chicken little, anxious mess
I'm that but so much more
Underneath all these layers
I'm undyingly hopeful
That the world will right itself
That we will get a star trek future
Where our backgrounds
Our skin tones, our cultures
Won't divide us but bring us together
I hope the generations after me
Be cynical as fuck but with a hopeful core
Punch some nazi's, fight some racist
Fight the tit for tat in the lgbt community
That right or left doesnt...

The Ride
I know as well as any asker
About the broken heart upon my sleeve
I know the balance between Freedom
& Trapped in Love I thought I'd need
Trapped becomes a Pain
At first, you cannot feel
Too late the distance from Salvation
Begins to seem Surreal
But you will claw a way out,
And extinguish your own fears
You are Strength in spite of Weakness
& you'll run out of tears
But Freedom....
Lets go of salty lashes
& hardens Revolution
Keeps the laughter loud
& leads down a road of...

Billabong Sally
As it weighs the portals of its own life
Like a brainstormed chameleon who weeps
Like a vagabond who watches the passing ships
Under the tunnel, over the valley
Before him stood Billabong Sally
"Sally honey, what would you do
If a bird flew right onto you?"
Billabong Sally knew what Froggity Frog Froggidy meant by that.
She grabbed her cane and started walking excruciatingly slow towards the door.
Next station.Away from Froggity Frog Froggidy.
DING-DONG.
Her legs trembled at the sound of the doorbell.
Her head turned slowly...
Like a brainstormed chameleon who weeps
Like a vagabond who watches the passing ships
Under the tunnel, over the valley
Before him stood Billabong Sally
"Sally honey, what would you do
If a bird flew right onto you?"
Billabong Sally knew what Froggity Frog Froggidy meant by that.

Thoughts
They want me to speak
But my thoughts are silence
My poetry has fallen - who will lift it?
The living minute is a heavy
prison door and far beyond my walls
a women hums a very old air
an air that comes from far before childhood
Her face is closed
The images are broken
They want me to speak
But my soul is silence
But my thoughts are silence
My poetry has fallen - who will lift it?
The living minute is a heavy
prison door and far beyond my walls
a women hums a very old air
an air that comes from far before childhood
Her face is closed
The images are broken
They want me to speak
But my soul is silence

Pretty Flowers in a Broken Vase
I don't know what happened
It's none of my business
Got my own history
Some of it romantic
A lot of it rough
When she broke my heart
I made every woman pay
5 years of jaded sex
Pushing their limits
Some loved it
Some loved it too much
Obsession
It's a freak show
Binding flesh
Bending minds
Twisting truths
Till all that's left is anarchy
Where did the love go
5 years I lasted
Wrong side of sexuality
Every chase
Monumental thrills
Yet left on the road side
Broken and...

How to ruin/live the perfect life
Time to move on
been Living too long
Still can’t tell what’s right
Was I really wrong?
Now It’s Time to let go
Leave all what’s known
Find a new path
You can come too
No one’ll tell us what to do
We’ll Become brand new
Stop sleeping it gets old too
Never rehearse life
We’re real not living a lie
Give eachother tattoos
Let loose dreams come true
You can come too
No one to tell us what to do
How to live our, how to ruin the
Perfect life
How to ruin our,...

Cycles of Life
travelling through sheer curtains
crystal walls between eons
magical places mystical land
looking for a whisper of you
sounds of creation
the beginning soul searched
blustery wind on worlds
blinking in half lights
whispers of his name
echo and re-echo
halls of near remembrance
but the caverns are empty
I wade through waters
of forgetfulness,
only remembering your name
embedded deep in heart
brushing forests
of names as new leaves
ode to the faded fallen
a life unto one...

List Of Shipwrecks
(written for "Wiki Poems" comp)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_shipwrecks_in_June_1842
“She was on a voyage, and she ran aground…”
Upon the waves, a-crest and oared,
we rowed our boats to foreign shores
and in the days of steam-drove ships,
into the currents, we did slip.
Ahoy and hark—no land’s a-ho;
by way of water, our lives, did go.
With keening keels and disarray,
the cracking masts, they gave away.
We watched and rode the wretched storms
as sideboard planks were...

FAR AS I CAN SEE
Here as I stare at the image within the depth of my deepness as my silent illusions come to life, for amongst the turmoil of the darkness that surrounds us now with the process of the thoughts of the incoming. What the future truly holds for us beyond today nor tomorrow, but what if what we truly thought all of this was merely a test of our ability to fight and come together, as that is our true conviction of insight into the depth of the darkness of what will happen to life. For even though life seems hard to understand wholeheartedly right now, were there is a well there is always a reason...

You Inspired Something in Me
I write fucked up sex poems
Your story inspired me
To pull away from the negative
My darkness is a permanent stain
Humanity doesn't need him
I'm trying

Vent
I want you to vent.
I want you to let go.
To pour out
Every single seething ounce.
I want you to leave it
Lonely on the floor.
I want to see, feel, taste your vent.
I want to be immersed in it.
To be inside you.
Like a babe in the womb.
Your heartbeat
As familiar as mine.
I want you to let go.
To pour out
Every single seething ounce.
I want you to leave it
Lonely on the floor.
I want to see, feel, taste your vent.
I want to be immersed in it.
To be inside you.
Like a babe in the womb.
Your heartbeat
As familiar as mine.

♪threnody to the mixed emotions of motherhood♪
“Children are knives, my mother once said. They don’t mean to,
but they cut. And yet we cling to them, don’t we; we clasp them until the
blood flows.” ― Joanne Harris, The Girl with No Shadow
i
in the morn
of my life
was the eve
of God's creation.
one kindred nation
i believe
without strife
thus was born.
ii
all the world
from her womb
cometh forth
with tears of passion.
no feeble ration
or slight mirth
pales...
