BONE BROTH
Your anger sits
On the back of the stove
Always on simmer
Full-flavored
Ready to pour
Into the skull bowl
Of those who do not realize
They are starving
On the back of the stove
Always on simmer
Full-flavored
Ready to pour
Into the skull bowl
Of those who do not realize
They are starving

You think
What does a tree
Know about history
Ah
But they do
They have thoughts
And words to say
About you
What does a tree
Know about history
Ah
But they do
They have thoughts
And words to say
About you

Oud For Food
Oud For Food
Hungry cricket asked friend ant for food
'' i used to sing, i would work, if i could "
'scat, yelled the angry ant !!!
'food, ? oh my dear , i can't '
You're lazy creature, you're just good for Oud !
Frying Pan
She asked me to write a pun
That she could handle with fan
i went to the kitchen
For a fast reflection
I came back with a frying pan
Hungry cricket asked friend ant for food
'' i used to sing, i would work, if i could "
'scat, yelled the angry ant !!!
'food, ? oh my dear , i can't '
You're lazy creature, you're just good for Oud !
Frying Pan
She asked me to write a pun
That she could handle with fan
i went to the kitchen
For a fast reflection
I came back with a frying pan

The Battlefield,
What ever I lose I gain again later
And that’s not just the weight it’s
The journey I take . When I let life
Take me by the scruff of my neck
And don’t answer back why I am
Somersaulting and often cavorting
With the unknown. It losses the more
I engage with an attitude of I know
I will land on my feet sooner or later .
Submitting isn’t defeatist it’s a
Pincer movement disguised as losing
But unbeknownst to change and
Uncertainty I am playing the long
Game and letting go of coercive
Control and it can’t walk...
And that’s not just the weight it’s
The journey I take . When I let life
Take me by the scruff of my neck
And don’t answer back why I am
Somersaulting and often cavorting
With the unknown. It losses the more
I engage with an attitude of I know
I will land on my feet sooner or later .
Submitting isn’t defeatist it’s a
Pincer movement disguised as losing
But unbeknownst to change and
Uncertainty I am playing the long
Game and letting go of coercive
Control and it can’t walk...

It all depends on you
The ego is the master
That says that this is true:
"If you screw up the world goes down
It all depends on you"
Near and far, far and wide
Only you can turn the tide
Every problem you must pursue
Because it all depends on you
Serious face and every place
Everywhere they know your name
And they will come after you
If you bring upon them shame
Did I say each man on earth?
Nonsense, all the universe!
Knows by heart whom they must sue
Cause it all depends on you
By now you may know where I'm...

NotUsed2TheMuse.
Wind, stretches in,
Reaches within, broken hearts.
Between,
Index finger and thumb,
Wind holds the spark.
That spark ignites,
The held Greatness, inside.
What broke you,
What spins you around,
Needs facing
Needs facing
Needs facing
Needs tearing apart.
There's An Art In Tearing Yourself Apart.
Acknowledge,what wind brings up,
Hurts up,
Really bad.
But believe,
You're meant 2 reveal,
No longer conceal,
What...
Reaches within, broken hearts.
Between,
Index finger and thumb,
Wind holds the spark.
That spark ignites,
The held Greatness, inside.
What broke you,
What spins you around,
Needs facing

Needs tearing apart.

Wolves of Nuance
i wasn’t
always like this…
like this
*gestures vaguely*
i used to be
the helpful one
the one with all
the resources
i knew the
ins and outs
and all of the
secret trix
but now these
lessons i am
learning
teaching myself
come in colors
that i
never
knew existed
signs of
cPTSD
with a chronic
sleep disturbance
an eating
disorder and
substance use
to boot but
i can feel
myself
growing
growling back

WHISPER THE WIND (original draft) (7-5-11, 3:00pm, Palm Springs, California)
whisper the wind
breathe the sky
seize
and wholly embrace
the night
ask the moon
beg the sun
plead the stars
to appease
whatever gods
there are
here or beyond
you may either
choose to believe in
or not
lest you speak
to the god
you are
found within
this dream of all
to amend and heal
what harm
weve done
individually and collectively
over time
in our self destructive
species ...

Ain't Got Nothing
Devil ain't got nothing
on me
Because I'm bought by the blood
and I am totally free
But you don't seem
to believe in anything
I guess that's just on you
There's really nothing I can do
to make you see
to help you be
Everything you could be
if you would just believe
in something
Anything
But that's the thing
It's not just anything
It has to be
that ONE thing
Are you hearing me
ARE YOU HEARING ME
IT IS THAT ONE THING
that means everything
HE
I AM
you and me
All things ...
on me
Because I'm bought by the blood
and I am totally free
But you don't seem
to believe in anything
I guess that's just on you
There's really nothing I can do
to make you see
to help you be
Everything you could be
if you would just believe
in something
Anything
But that's the thing
It's not just anything
It has to be
that ONE thing
Are you hearing me
ARE YOU HEARING ME
IT IS THAT ONE THING
that means everything
HE
I AM
you and me
All things ...

Wisdom
Deep Underground Poetry
people talking about pointless things
life experiences
and similarities
endless thoughts and disparities
hopelessness is the crime
people talking about living life
maybe they should go outside
leave their home inside their minds
Stop hiding behind your words
It's habit forming
makes it worse
Stop avoiding the life you were served
your eloquence is so perverse
Deep Underground Poetry
Don't try to escape reality
Open your mind,
begin to see.

Mother's Sayings
I gave mother a hug and felt overwhelmed by her life and what she's meant to me. Later I wrote a few of the things I've heard her say.
Adopt a person in need.
Don’t judge.
Be careful, but not too careful.
Help those who have less than you.
Touch yourself with affection…often.
Think kind thoughts about yourself…often.
Touch others with affection…often.
Surround yourself with those you love.
When you love a man, love with abandon.
When you love a man and learn he's unworthy of you, run.
Say you’re sorry when you hurt...
Adopt a person in need.
Don’t judge.
Be careful, but not too careful.
Help those who have less than you.
Touch yourself with affection…often.
Think kind thoughts about yourself…often.

Surround yourself with those you love.
When you love a man, love with abandon.
When you love a man and learn he's unworthy of you, run.
Say you’re sorry when you hurt...
