You suck
I hope that this finds you in the worst place
With zits and dead skin on your face
I want to send your kid a box of legos
And I hope you step on one everyday
Babies seem to cry when they’re around you
And pets don’t want to stay in the room
No amount of booze can make you attractive
And you make really bad tasting food
The word around town is you smell bad
I smelled you coming from 30 feet away
You have a bad haircut, and your style is shit
It offends everyone in every single way
With zits and dead skin on your face
I want to send your kid a box of legos
And I hope you step on one everyday
Babies seem to cry when they’re around you
And pets don’t want to stay in the room
No amount of booze can make you attractive
And you make really bad tasting food
The word around town is you smell bad
I smelled you coming from 30 feet away
You have a bad haircut, and your style is shit
It offends everyone in every single way

No More Games
One day I stopped hating
I ceased all meaningless activity
I completed the circle
I set my sights straight
Like an arrow I flew
I stopped acting
I got tired of playing with you
Violence & destruction became my reason for living
My out, my excuse
What is your excuse?
Destruction
Without hate, without fear, without judgement
I am no better then you
No one knows this better then I do
I just got tired of playing parlor games
I ceased all meaningless activity
I completed the circle
I set my sights straight
Like an arrow I flew
I stopped acting
I got tired of playing with you
Violence & destruction became my reason for living
My out, my excuse
What is your excuse?
Destruction
Without hate, without fear, without judgement
I am no better then you
No one knows this better then I do
I just got tired of playing parlor games

Don't Quit
When you feel like the whole world is 🌍 against you don't quit, for it's not the end of your life. IT'S just human nature to feel that you just can't win, but yet you do win in the end 😉 by not giving up without a fight 😉 When you feel that you have to just settle down, for something else that has no real intentions of commitment and CONSISTENCY. 🤔 DON'T quit just because they don't have the intelligence, to know that they found the truth within a relationship that they say they been not getting. 🤨 Don't quit when things in your life, aren't what you...

A triad of landscapes
While I can't draw maps,
let's imagine an alternate world where
Paraguay, Angola and Romania share borders.
Picture a landmass reshaped
by a mystical force, bringing together
diverse landscapes and cultures.
Angola's western coastline,
with its rich African heritage,
now meets the vibrant heart
of South America's Paraguay.
Together, they are connected
to Romania, bringing in the charm
of Eastern Europe.
This fictional world creates
a tapestry of unique traditions,
languages and histories...

I will never forget
One night in August 2024 I took a walk down to the beach to hear the teenagers roll into shore
I smelled smoke
I looked across the street
Someone had nailed a bum to the neon lit 7-11 sign
His body formed the sign of the cross
He had been torched
There he was, crackling and burning against the night sky
He was the first saint I had ever seen
I smelled smoke
I looked across the street
Someone had nailed a bum to the neon lit 7-11 sign
His body formed the sign of the cross
He had been torched
There he was, crackling and burning against the night sky
He was the first saint I had ever seen

IN THE WIND
I wanna B in the wind
go where ever it goes
fly with it
up high...down low
take me,
here,there and everywhere
in the wind
breezing along
no worries
no cares
take me away
take me away
just me and the wind ♥♥♥

Step out
Arise sleeper and take up your plow.
Prepare your harnesses and oil your tack.
The ground has had its sabbath rest and is become disquieted.
Remove the rocks and rubble, burn the weeds and stubble.
Strike the fallow ground and don't relent.
Dig in and rip complacency away.
From sunrise until darkness covers the land.
The trumpet speaks, the time is right,
The earth rumbles in anticipation.
The sowers are holding the seed
waiting, watching, watching, hoping for broken ground.
The husbandmen and shepherds bounce from...
Prepare your harnesses and oil your tack.
The ground has had its sabbath rest and is become disquieted.
Remove the rocks and rubble, burn the weeds and stubble.
Strike the fallow ground and don't relent.
Dig in and rip complacency away.
From sunrise until darkness covers the land.
The trumpet speaks, the time is right,
The earth rumbles in anticipation.
The sowers are holding the seed
waiting, watching, watching, hoping for broken ground.
The husbandmen and shepherds bounce from...

Full Moon ín Love
Once in a month I cry for your love
Without words but loud and clear
Don't look around you, I'm not here
Find me high in the sky above
Sometimes I reach out for you
My moonbeam fingers stroke your fur
Until almost like a cat you purr
And I feel that you love me too
Protected by the velvety night
I kiss you soft and tender
Caress you with my splendor
Your yellow eyes reflect my light
Tonight you'll throw back your head
And howl a sweet melody to me
I blush with delight can you see
My moon face is...
Without words but loud and clear
Don't look around you, I'm not here
Find me high in the sky above
Sometimes I reach out for you
My moonbeam fingers stroke your fur
Until almost like a cat you purr
And I feel that you love me too
Protected by the velvety night
I kiss you soft and tender
Caress you with my splendor
Your yellow eyes reflect my light
Tonight you'll throw back your head
And howl a sweet melody to me
I blush with delight can you see
My moon face is...

A Best Seed of Love
My muse is here, seeds in my heart abyss
invokes a soul to wake and open up
a solid earth shall treasure such a bliss
and oceans are spared for me to grow up.
A best seed of Love, a soul, ever to grace
reaching my soil, digging up my gardens
the scent of divine, the mystery of space
enlightens my spirit and my Self heartens.
A flame of Life meant to glow and brighten
the darkest of dark and every sealed whole
the core of awareness, to touch and heighten
lit paths to walk and ascend, one is my dole.
Intense powers...
invokes a soul to wake and open up
a solid earth shall treasure such a bliss
and oceans are spared for me to grow up.
A best seed of Love, a soul, ever to grace
reaching my soil, digging up my gardens
the scent of divine, the mystery of space
enlightens my spirit and my Self heartens.

Weeping Skies
Please pray for Los Angeles!!!
The skies are so gray,
with such a dark gloom,
I can smell the rain,
I hope it comes very soon.
The air is so windy,
The Clouds are set,
Hoping Raindrops fall,
Thus far, nothing yet.
The gray Skies are ready,
Perception predicts Rain,
Of All of the burning Forrest,
I pray this in Jesus Name.
Los Angeles is now Burning,
As an arsonist runs free,
Oh, Please stop these fires,
I beg this and I plea.
As the burning slows down,
It's a sad...
