Soon to be matter that supposedly doesn't, it only being 99.9 to the infinite place % of an evolving, expanding, inconceivable Cosmos, a Bodhi, as 'twas, everywhere and nowhere at once, with heart, Like the wind moves, not love nor hate, only everything and nothing at all, at once, thrives. A sea of souls, waves crest, trough, love is. Gaia's imploring, humanity be not my stillbirth, is all sea's songs accompaniment now, as acid rain always falls. Will you dance, "leap, contend", be agua uncontainably gesturing? Will humans be that evolutionary jump, back to the evolution and the future they'll only have if they do? Are you life?

Somewhere we were two crescent shaped bodies hidden away in a house owned by a bank The broken blinds didn’t completely block out the lights so I only saw you in fragments Mystery intriguing the deepest parts of my mind Neither of us wanted to be in solitude so we climbed under the sheets where enigma could meet enigma In the darkness you muttered something Those words you spoke held such animus Yet you dressed and fed them to me so well Two young fiends just feeding off the breath and standing on the shoulders of the other Today I'm wearing my tears in plain sight, in the ducts of my eyes In contrast to the rage in yours so maybe well look like we actually belong together

To fill in the Concave Spaces
young stoic autumn grasshopper chirps beyond days aromatic rain

{a realm in the wind}
"I'll drown myself in the lake fire, I might as well" I thought "It's the only way I'll be exonerated of my burdens" a book of matches to burn myself, so every scar can be a memory if I choose it to be How could i own the narrative in this mental climate? I've got the gumption to face my miseries, just haven't got enough heart to change anything I thought I was doing the back stroke, pushing myself away from the things I fear It turns out I was just flailing my arms about in an attempt to not be taken under by the waves I begged to whoever would listen down in the Lake of Flames hastily yanked from her womb yet again Overwhelmed by the scent of brimstone, lead to that quaking screech I've been kept up by her exorcising now since day of my fathers passing Reborn into my afterlife

Ladies of the Eden
Before you I longed to be noticed, never to think how closely. Ripe and married in the eyes of the lord the daunting task to officiate our union felt anything but holy. And just like the crisp of fall ends and the swift frost of winter enters the atmosphere, almost like a magic trick a part of me was purged. Life a new as a wife and soon to be mother. Self stripped of character, creating a fresh flesh slate-stone the record of my rebirth will be set in. Tattered house dresses replacing the prized complimentary gowns. Once being looked upon with passion and effervescence now casted glances of carnal lust and depreciation advanced towards me. Self abnegation and nothing less, a ladies place. Locker room talk and snickers laced with malice, “A ladies place?” Contradiction in that thought. A ladies place is on the front lines, behind closed doors.   Tears over teenaged heartbreak wisk away into the air and settle now as young runny noses and dry whining eyes. The name called up on you now only referring to the status provided. A fathers daughter, a mans wife and a sons mother.
