one way
the conveyor belt
is life
what a fool
to not see
that wake
is only give
not take
trying
is giving your best
and moving on
lingering
is stupid.

sun and weather battered
your faded star never mattered
no crown no turban
yet you my pride urban
decades old more valued than gold
my dear hat tattered
.

no words
stoked fires
and death bed
neither started
off with the current state
as their destination
destiny
that bitch
never afforded them
that luxury
uncertainty fucks with the best of the minds
long shot then
escaping it
for the lonesome and
the uber sensitive
the poetic kind
you know what
empty belly and wounded hearts
they say are the fertile grounds
where the succulents of the artistic graveyards bloom
too many poets fucked around
for far too long ...

APIARIOUS
There’s an apiary
Outside the office complex
Boxes stacked
Mismatched
Somehow still aligned
I can’t tell if it’s living or dead
The smell should give it away
I think
Sweet and bitter
Yes it reminds me of us
Outside the office complex
Boxes stacked
Mismatched
Somehow still aligned
I can’t tell if it’s living or dead
The smell should give it away

Yes it reminds me of us

we like what we like
elitists can fuck themselves
our journey, not theirs

skulls and bones and memory's remains
skulls and bones and the memory's remains
monsters, slayers their shackles and chains
that's what they found deep underground
when you were long dead and we weren't around
sands of the time
buried their rhyme
dunes rose higher
drowning wind chimes
skulls and bones and memory remains
of beings unsuitable of beings insane
they left their marks not without sparks
and scars in ink
helictites hanging with no apparent links
scars and chains of words insane
for them...

She is...
she
the silent, stoic
her acts
.....
i just can't but see
her resistance
and be in awe
from a distance
and today
i won't mention
anything
about her aspects
her beauty
both
inner and outer
today
I will only say
I admire Her
for she is
she
Her self.
tears, trickle down
on the onlooker
yet she barely speaks out
keeps trekking
and leaving behind
any and all
everests
life installs in her path
She is fortitude. ...

a mouthful of...
bit own tongue
mouth full of blood
still
spat out less
much less
than the venom
that spewed
a few moments
prior
karma
is a silent bit[ch]

i cast a stone
across the pond
of tranquility
surely it bounced
twice
then sank
ripples
they eventually reached the shore
leaving my until then stable reflection
shaken...
