BACK TO RETRO REVERSE INTROVERSION AGAIN (12:00am, 5-16-2022, Palm Springs, California)
ive so unsettlingly
noticed
increasingly
over these last
four or five years
and now
more than ever
it seems
that whenever
i find myself
in social gatherings
of almost any kind
where theres
more than

ive known for years
at times
depending to some degree
at least
upon the situation
and the unpredictable mix
of egoic personalities ...

Infatuation is a deadly heart condition
I want to breathe in his hair, but I don’t want to be weird
I want only his soul dancing on my skin
My fingers ache to trace the planes of his smooth and strong back
The brightness of his smile makes my heart skip a beat
I think I might be lovesick
Whenever I’m around him, he's like a dream
Soft around the edges, there’s not a single sharp thing about him
Even his teeth look harmless. There’s no bite to him
He’s all talk. Maybe even too much talk...
I bet he mumbles even in...
I want only his soul dancing on my skin
My fingers ache to trace the planes of his smooth and strong back
The brightness of his smile makes my heart skip a beat
I think I might be lovesick
Whenever I’m around him, he's like a dream
Soft around the edges, there’s not a single sharp thing about him
Even his teeth look harmless. There’s no bite to him
He’s all talk. Maybe even too much talk...
I bet he mumbles even in...

Everett's weaknesses
How are you feeling Mother?”
“I feel fine Everett. Susan and Abba are taking good care of the youngsters and I.”
“I worry about you mother.”
“You must not worry yourself dear.” His mother sighed
Mrs. Edwards chuckled before taking a sip of her tea. Caroline shot her a look and back at her twenty-year-old son. Since the last miscarriage two months ago she had been bed ridden every day. The sawbones came twice a week to check upon her. It had been her fourth miscarriage in a year and a half. Now the sawbones advised her not to get pregnant again or she will...

Withdrawal
It's called an addiction but comes like a friend
Any bad feeling will come to an end
Walks you along to a fake solution
Dragging you down to an odd compulsion
It tames the anger, it tames the pain
It soothes your soul when it burns in hell
You feel relieved when it hits your system
Yet you do know it will crush your liver
You like to feel it caressing your throat
But real thing is it will only make it worse
Time goes by slower when you look at the clock
You don't have to face what you want to avoid
When the...

Autism isn't a dirty word
Sometimes I feel as if I'm not playing the same game
There's rules no ones explained to me
If you put me in a situation where I can't escape
I bite my nails, shake my head, avoid your eyes
I can't escape your eyes, seeing everything
You think I'm stupid, It's written all over your face
I'm bad with tone but I've heard yours before
Out of the mouths of the adults in my life their
Fists against the walls by my face screaming at me why can't I be normal
I have forgotten that in this world I'm wrong
Entire organizations color the way my brain is...

I'm bad with tone but I've heard yours before
Out of the mouths of the adults in my life their
Fists against the walls by my face screaming at me why can't I be normal
I have forgotten that in this world I'm wrong
Entire organizations color the way my brain is...

Solipsism
Why’re you denying the Source of ALL creation?
What’re you trying to prove in your deviation?
Oh, can’t you see that there's obviously so much more?
Than the one you call "me," could ever dream on its own
All on your own
Tell me, what’ve you got against the God of ALL salvation?
Whether or not He is a “he” is beside the point…
Are we not dying to find some sort of sense of alleviation?
From all the world’s pain
To start over again
To be given another chance
Oh, who is telling you that you are ALL THAT IS? ...
