Arborvitae
I live in a state of being that is vastly different, yet very much the same as yours. Every being has a unique perspective and a subsequently unique reality. Truth is not a universal thing, the meaning of things is different for every individual and no one person's reality holds any more merit than any other. To me, poetry is the art of dancing around the profound, trying to express in words the thing that cannot be expressed in words. And yet still we try, as is human nature; we tenaciously push forward, reach out to feel with frail and uncertain fingers despite a deficit of knowledge and ability of perception. We learn whether we like it or not, the need to dispel ignorance is inherent within us. To cast off into the unknown, to face our fears, to coalesce dualistic forces and to simultaneously allow them to be separate, to perceive clearly and completely...this is the hope of the human race.
Ahh-he-che'em ack-ahem. Sorry, let me clear my throat.
One day I set out galavanting, looking for a high.
I meandered to the ocean shore and set a lively stride.
My eyes were wet, my heart was light as I looked out at the splendor,
About that time I heard a rumble, a sudden yearning for a chicken tender.
I galloped to an eatery in hopes of a hearty meal,
But had a measly handful of coins, so I opted for a deal.
The only place I found tat would accept my sum of coins
For anything sufficient enough to satisfy my *****
Was a gritty place called Taco Bell, but it was my only choice.
The cashier was a voluptuous dame and my trousers became quite moist.
She said to me, "what will you have?", in a shockingly low-pitched voice.
I was taken aback for a moment, but stuttered, "a number six, I think".
"Comin' right up honey", he or she said with a wink.
I just smiled shyly and went to go fill up my drink.
My food was finally ready, but I was a bit wary,
I could't tell what was in my taco - squirrel, beef or canary.
My hunger pushed me through my fear and I finally took a bite,
Although skeptical at first, my taste buds did delight!
I had finally finished with my meal and was satisfied and full,
But down below my abdomen I felt a mighty pull.
I had no time I knew at once and dashed to find relief.
The single men's room was in sight, but who should be a thief?!
The cashier with the arousing bosoms had stolen my salvation...
As I stood there in that Taco Bell I felt a curious sensation.
When normally I could have held it, a complete bowel prostration.
While the **** was pouring out like a broken sink,
My mind started to wander and I couldn't help but think,
*If the women's room is out of order, I wonder which she/he has,
A set of both, a meat-locker or a **** and nads?*

A dark visage expressed
In jest,
But rejected and chagrined.
Unable to conceive a rescind
Of the psychosis
Precipitated in youth by a subtle hypnosis.
A dogmatic view,
Unable to break through
This vision
Of correct cognition
Instilled in all to prevent remission
Of the human condition.

Alpine stigma, the horror of incessant pine borers. Life's enigma seeping deeper to the core, to some a chore, to others a leisurely tour. But we want more and more although sometimes less and less is best. To our behest, it would seem that our collective ego, a thing that is supreme, will reap all the earth has to sow, yet still wants more and still it grows. Is this not nature itself? Are we not but one collectible doll upon the cosmic shelf? The greatest threat to imbalance is nature, a course correcting force, meticulous in checking universal nomenclature.

Slipping through rhyme and reason to feasibly change the seasons, we eat the morals of our peoples chieftains and horde the gored crown of misbegotten dreams, choking down muffled screams of rotten abhorrence at the center of our beings essence. Our minds are not our own, but we condone the ill because the foreign mind is a relentless drill that plants it's seeds deep and in supplying hindsight keeps us dull and meek. The food is the weak and the strong do eat to complete the endless cycle and compete for success in survival to the hindrance of oblivious brilliance and the benefit of passive resilience.

The beauty of violence
Of motion unbridled
Of stagnant serenity
And silent revivals

Relaxed in a state of absolute calm,
The air of serenity a soothing balm
To ease the imminent struggle ahead
As I sit on my throne of porcelain and shed
The anticipation tugging at my bowels
And out come the mud dogs wearing brown cowls.
Out they come and my tension is released,
In a violent cacophony the silence has ceased!
It has been replaced by a beautiful sound
Like the music of nymphs, with voices all crowned.
The release is a final stinky-sweet ender,
As the *** paper flows my world lights up with splendor!
The sunlight filters through my one bathroom porthole
And the warm rays splay playfully across the hairs of my ********
This is the moment, ***** all the rest.
Nothing else can compare...a good **** is best.

In the conclave
Of night and day
Gloaming tides
Pull and push
Over the sands
We all walk
With blistered feet
Soles worn down
Yet still we walk
And still it flows
Hot or cool
Over the sands
And the tides
Ebb or flow
Over the sands
We still walk
In the conclave
Of night and day

Floundering in a tide of unforgotten pride, the ghost of faded opulence is forced to decide; create the rungs to then climb, or quietly subside...

Remembering a forgotten past, fast.
Memories flowing over each other in riveting technicolor.
Gushing forward, a flood of things not seen, not heard.
Populating a seamless void, yet a question has one cloyed.
How have these riveting delights burst into life?
Alleviating strife, dulling the sharp knife.
Pressure of an incongruous blade, striving to extort, to be paid.
Cutting deep, but wait, behold! A gate, and through it a luminous river of gold!
Flowing and changing an effervescent river, so avid a giver.
Presents presented in the present, limited to subjective perception, how pleasant.
But what isn't. These days brain makes the big plays, stifling the mythos, the old ways.
Some hold on to the secrets, some stay behind rather than get hit, or so they say.
Recollections running rampant, scant happiness ******** clad in an orange sun dress.
What a mess, this cluttered web of needlessly intricate excess.
Social pariahs claim possession of tired desires sired in the filthy minds of professional liars.
Majority vote totes a certain permanence broken only by explosions of unyielding opulence.
What springs from lips holds power untouchable to fingertips. Though remnants trickle through, as if taking sips from the trough of knowledge...perhaps once we knew.
Full exposure is supremely reprimanding, as to leave one no longer standing.
Not in the sense of senses deemed supreme, not in this bizarre dream, the way we place ourselves into these pseudo-sensical roles all day striving to derive meaning from the needle, not the hay teeming with nutrients to sustain life as we know it, pleasure and pain.
Vanity must run through our veins to think us able to ordain a solid truth from any plain, or that linear reality reigns.
Comfort is a salve and a vice, when offered one doesn't think twice, but blind acceptance won't negate price.
Contrary to popular belief, popular belief is a contrary beast that consumes the strong and exhumes the weak.
A contrite appetite, a gaping maw with teeth like pikes and satirical satyrs playing in the inimical reeds in which it breeds.
So goes an old saying, early to bed, early to rise makes a man healthy wealthy and wise, but does sage not grow as sage unless it is left out both day and night until old age?
What makes a thing sagacious, wisdom, growth? Spacious tracks are needed to cultivate both.
As to the memories of trees, what hides within our lives and within the breeze? Sometimes little is less and best. Lessons learned to our behest are not ignored, we just can't seem to find the door.
Within the confines of life's insistence, all beings act in accordance to their existence.

Deliberation, restoration of a beaten nation. Beaten into the dust, rusted, cohesion gone, the gall of so many wrongs finally come to fruition like children's songs of un-suspended remission.
Cognitively oozing out of pores like sores of an otherwise un-marred beauty, and all the scoundrels come looting rudely to destroy the tapestry deliberately deployed to instill an air of utmost joy.
Money falling into the hands of moral lepers, economic pressures untoward, yet still pushing forward. The tenacity of ants, unparalleled cohesive cerebral structure, chants of a buddhist nature bleed desperation wrapped in graceful slumber to ward off the mortal structure, inevitable in its destruction which ruptures the potential reduction of essential corruption.
A gleam in the eye of every schemer, transferring blaspheme to the revelry flying high in the mind of every dreamer. Spewing out clouts of reconciliation, renewing like dust clouds of just degradation. Rejuvenation of this nations ancestry, patient in its wait, parched in the ancient vestry, waiting to sate the state of arched backs, superstitious black cats. Careful if a human crosses your path, losses run amok...invoke the acumen of wrath and bad luck.
