The Songbird’s Anthem
I find I am awed.....inspired,
when I hear the caged bird sing.
I believe that to be how she flies,
In mourning, for the death of her wings.

Lazy Day Slumber
Cheap pleasures,
A television show that
Isn’t completely
Terrible,
Gluten-free booze that
Slims you, or discovering
Some illicit clip that
Makes you cum harder
Than you could just
Three weeks ago
I am a lazy man, hard
Work only brought me
To the end of a
Stupid task, of which
There’d be many
Many more
But someone had to
Have something figured
Out somewhere, right?
Completely blitzed when
They ask me my
Opinion
And I never give
It to them

A SENSUAL WOMAN
When you really look at me truly what do you see do you see the things I had to endure at the cost of my own sanity my very own peace of mind, for when you look at me and hear the sound of my voice trembling with the fear that made me so insecure of thyself.
As I became a prisoner of my own life making me afraid to step out the door and give love another try, for the depth of my heart as well as my soul and mind igniting the fire of my flame that still burns deep down...

Conversations with Autumn
So, here we are
both of us
looking for redemption
In moments when
seasons dry
like sound
vaporising
in rustic
brown
I hear the voice
of my grandmother
and remember
how she spoke
like wind
on waves
Lately I find
She seeks me
And memories of
how my grandfather
always fondly disagreed
faint in amber
glow, the robin in my garden
wore that same glance
in his eyes
today
both of us
looking for redemption
In moments when
seasons dry
like sound
vaporising
in rustic
brown
I hear the voice
of my grandmother
and remember
how she spoke
like wind
on waves
Lately I find
She seeks me
And memories of
how my grandfather
always fondly disagreed
faint in amber
glow, the robin in my garden
wore that same glance
in his eyes
today

[incorruptible]
incorruptible
are the unambitious ones
for they take THE vow
forsaking all the world
of empires built of sand
are the unambitious ones
for they take THE vow
forsaking all the world

Among others
She raises her dark
epilated eyebrows
Running
her perfectly manicured hand
Through her silken
straightened hair
From her italian leather handbag
documents bundled are covered
My tear stained vision seeks
an empty space
First all was pure, in whites
ever soaring skies
fade
She holds my fear
unfolding a black bordered envelope
I do not wait for her condolences
Into a gibbous moon I cried your initials
" Your divorce is now...

What I have learned
of Friends or frenemies
depends solely on actions
A friend does not manipulate emotion
to mental detriment
for personal reasons;
nor entertain rumors
or fans discordant flames;
but, listens instead—
offers alternate perspectives
creating space
for peace to breathe
Think about it this way. . .
vs -
Did you see what s/he wrote?!
Like, OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just KNOW it was about YOU
or, ME(ALL ABOUT MEEEEE)!
Or US! ...

Class Education
The trees bear fruit - delicious and rich
For the privileged few get to savor and taste, prosper and grow.
And the seeds are then passed down for new procreation, to be cultivated
To become richer on their own, passed down for generations to come.
But over time fences rise, to protect these trees that bear fruit
They are obstacles and barriers for those on the outside.
But the branches in time, reach further,
Inviting those who thirst and hunger
Outside the gates to experience this knowledge
So they cross
Any limits,
To know,
To...

Women
Extraordinary species
bringing lives, creating thesis
preparing the earth to have creatures
Their hearts ,beat endlessly.
like sibling brains of intelligence,
they provide similar excellence
The strength and power fitted in mind,
soft sounding voices as their weapon,
they shape the world,bringing the joy
"Women" is their Name

preparing the earth to have creatures
Their hearts ,beat endlessly.
