Earth
Earth our gravity magnetic lava rock space ship,
Amidst the camp fire of our little burning sun,
The waters, tides and all life move with the moon day and night,
Take a second to breath in the air and look at the sky.
Humans reliant on the structure's of the Universe,
We forgot our place animals not Gods.
Gods in our mind in time we bend and break,
For now in gold we trust and lust is our nature.
We hide behind the lies of time.
Amidst the camp fire of our little burning sun,
The waters, tides and all life move with the moon day and night,
Take a second to breath in the air and look at the sky.
Humans reliant on the structure's of the Universe,
We forgot our place animals not Gods.
Gods in our mind in time we bend and break,
For now in gold we trust and lust is our nature.
We hide behind the lies of time.

A Poem Woke Me Up
A poem is worth a thousand words
Our volumes are worth eternity
Your dime is human; my time divine.
The above is the ending of this poem
That invaded my night of light sleep.
When it gets this bad
And this good
I have to hear Laura Branigan.
Solitude suits me
The dark comes pleasant with it
With poetry in the dark
I sometimes miss a keyboard character.
Sometimes these nights need candle light
Right now I do not want to fiddle with a match.
Let us move on to Shattered Glass
This night is...
Our volumes are worth eternity
Your dime is human; my time divine.
The above is the ending of this poem
That invaded my night of light sleep.
When it gets this bad
And this good
I have to hear Laura Branigan.
Solitude suits me
The dark comes pleasant with it
With poetry in the dark
I sometimes miss a keyboard character.
Sometimes these nights need candle light
Right now I do not want to fiddle with a match.
Let us move on to Shattered Glass
This night is...

"Perks" of being a Doctor: Part 3 - After Midnight
Five people are waiting for the radiologist to finish taking the chest x-ray of a patient who was revived back to life.
Its past midnight as I take over my shift at the ED. There are a handful of patients with their loved ones on their side, a couple of nurses and other doctors. Its a slow and quiet night as I sat behind a desk which is next to my patients. Then suddenly, an irate scream of an attendant pierced through the silence which surrounded the emergency hall. She was holding her husband as he was gasping for air and not responding. We rushed to check his heart beat but...

Men 3
He was so shrewd in business affairs;
Very human when it came to his people-
Women were different
More class or at least more discretion usually
Im not saying nothing was going on but;
Nothing obvious except 1 loan officer in particular
She was like that and he was letting her so I don’t know…
She owed him thousands;
She’s never going to be able to pay that back (no shame)
Whole office was talking about it…but I hit him
Up for money once….this here
Chicken head I was trying to do something with..I don’t what but
I swore my world...

Broach
(My inbox looks clean cut this time but…this city, that city..like where are you right now? Better off in a coffeehouse or a grocery store nowadays probably)
Growing
Inside those
Spider
Walls of
Emerald
Gemstone the
Broach was
Hunting
Down
Deserts with its
Tide pool
Fangs for
Coastlines
Ready to
Paralyze
My
Heart.

Air
(Listening to Phoenecia – Melfad)
Some curtain of
Air
Sheep
Herding
Eyes for
Sun
Lost;
Cascading
Falls
Etching
Closer to
Bluer
Skies
And the
Rocks are all
Polished by the
Torrential
Moon
Lashing
Their
Humbling
Resides all about…
Echoing in the
Background,
Only
Part of its
Brilliance
Divvied up by
Rain.

Set Ups
Women and gender studies- a useless class, judgmental (only when shit is in my immediate intimate space otherwise I don’t really care what anybody really does ethically; not close to my heart) shouldn’t say that just because it didn’t serve the purpose, we felt it should (that’s arrogant at will, as well); there has to be a lesson somewhere that it taught but we didn’t get it…moving forward…I had a peer in grad school and we use to critique each other on paper. She was fantastic at proofreading and critical was AP fluent, so we paired up; my professor’s idea. We were tight in that sense of...

Trapped
(Listening to Induce - "Alina")
Trapped
Inside this
Sponging off of
Sound for voice like
Skin
Watching some
Conundrum: puzzle with its
Inducing effect for
Walls, walls
Piecing
Their vowels
Together
Underwater and
Here we are
Trapped
Inside this
Sponging off…
{Sponging off of
Water for sound}
