M Seek nothing outside of yourself.
We are all that one another has in the world The confines of this comfortable hole is his universe He is my home Amber eyes whisper serenity His head bowed slightly as he waits for my embrace The friction between us creates a static charge But we do not mind I kiss his shoulder and hold him close Soft purrs echo soothing vibrations until it becomes too much Then he bites my hand to run off and find peace within himself

My Boy
I went all day without speaking to her And I drank Cabernet by the bottle and admired the artwork put on display Walking, observing, feeling an undeserved sense of soundness There was one painting that I was particularly fond of It was entitled "The Embrace" A faceless man in black and blue was pursuing a faceless woman in pink and white She shied away from him She was too bashful One blue arm attempted to comfort her from the world as she knew Or maybe from the uncertainties of the world that he imposed onto her Bloomed century plants envelop her completely And I stood there and pondered and drank more wine Then I thought, "She's going to become nonexistent just after becoming so beautiful." And I took another sip of my drink The only thing that existed in that moment were the paintings on the walls, the wine in my belly, and the associates that I went to the art show with For those hours that I was there, I was separated from reality Multiple calls were made soon after I returned to squadron Multiple calls were ignored I knew that I was in the wrong So I kept making attempts to reach her from a thousand miles away making myself look like an *** in the process It wasn't until the next morning that she contacted me All of her texts were short, dry, and cold I could tell that she was hurt So I called again, this time I could hear her voice "You're just an ******* You don't even care." I listen My stomached churned slightly from the guilt of knowing that she's not entirely wrong I could be so much better, but it's hard to fight against vices ingrained in your core Like instincts of self preservation Like fear Although I'm not always successful, I still try She resists me for a little while then succumbs to the pull of my world Then I remember the painting And I understood

I've always prided myself of being in tune with my reality Though as of late, I've been caught by this wondrous dream in disregard to an impending inevitability The Sun's rays still shine on me Glowing and glistening against my skin But I know that it must set I can feel the air around me growing cooler The sky is turning into bittersweet hues of purple and orange When it becomes dark once more I will face the east and wait patiently to embrace those rays that pour down like honey on my ordinary little world and drip from my fingertips

Hiatus From An Elysium
The embodiment of the sun is a woman Her hair like Rapunzel Long, and a beautiful golden blonde Her spirit was dragged through mud by the rabble but when it rose again through the Will of Grace it shined as though it had never been tested She carries herself with pride, which resonates with me Even when her conversation turns crude, and she bellows and burps: she maintains her class and loveliness Daisies grow in the wake of her steps She is the embodiment of the sun and I have become pious

Radiance
After a satisfying fried catfish dinner with collards and a sweet potato I went for a stroll in the nearby plaza I entered the Publix with a sweet treat on my mind And there I saw the watermelon woman that made my mouth water instead She was cutting up samples to be passed out while wearing a sliced watermelon costume Long black hair rested on one of her shoulders A small scar on the side of her mouth was noticeable, but it was completely overshadowed by her gaze Our eyes met, and I was locked in I smiled softly in reaction to the silliness of the dichotomy between the woman and the watermelon A pineapple would've suited her much better She responded to me by giving her own slightly nervous smile She offered me a sample, which I took then she began to speak to me with her chin pointed down towards the table Her eyes never broke contact with mine "They're two for one today. Really good too. You should buy some." "Have you tried it?" "No, but I can tell. I can smell it." How I'd love to try her out Her body language said that she was self-conscious, insecure Yet her eyes told me that she was a lioness ready to be dominated I left the store empty handed A missed opportunity on my part It's been a while since I've done any farm work but if I see the watermelon woman again I'll plant seeds

Watermelon Woman
I don't care much for titles or trophies I've never been one to reminisce over past accomplishments I only want to destroy the spirit of the man before me I will only be satisfied with victory when I feel his grit wither away When his sense of self is lost I will have found myself again Nietzsche is smiling at me from his cave

Ubermensch
Ugly men had it easy Women would just assume that they had to have something going on for them in order to atone for their misaligned eyes, the crooked teeth, or the superabundance of fat that has his arteries pleading for a mercy **** from the next Baconator Cheeseburger that rapes his intestinal tract Fate just couldn't be so cruel So a phenomenon takes place: The Dramatization Of The Ugly Man's Qualities His jokes are funnier, puns punnier, and his presence is larger He is the man among men The ugly man is god As long as he can support a woman's habits that is.....

The continued repression of the id's desired pleasure Will lead to the death of some poor son-of-a-bitch

Claim To Fortune
Boredom is the number one adversary for a man's well-being Even before the alcohol coke heron ****** ****** gambling and good women The Morning Star only challenged god because Heaven was uneventful He was well ahead of his time A perfect world can only exist when there's an opposing force Even the mice know that
