American A Human / Being.
Adrift upon the ocean, of hurricanes and sunrise, darkest dusk and heavenly dawn. The waves they grow and crash violently, and they also settle into the oblivion of still water. A black undulating surface is stained with warm golden shimmer, like a dead forgotten realm found once again by a hopeful persistence. Warmth and color fill up the cold dusty cracks and corners of existence, but order and entropy will always dance togetehr, and thus there shall always be a lonely corner waiting for the wings of grace.

The Ocean of Affirmation
I want nothing more than nothing and I want nothing more than not to want I feel so tired of feeling feeling all these tired patterns

Want
Piloting a rocket propelled spermatazoon straight into the magma core of Arcturus! And all the while our cute society is humming a slithery little hymn "Dip your toes and smile along clap your hands and follow me home." Alas my hands are golden waves and bridge the space where the monolith wades Redemption plays the poison harp encouraging those forgotten to never give up the strings are dripping and licking the ground where flowers grow the land is sound there is someone at the door always someone at the door

LSD (Don't lose that gumption)
Stream of consciousness leftover chili on the stove top the shadow self is fiddling with a tangled yo-yo hoping to use the string to trip you up at 5 ante meridiem when you are most vulnerable and susceptible and you thrash in your covers maybe the next position will be more comfortable the mental gymnastics are in town except instead of balance beams you'll see crooked frowns and slimy clowns and then the sun wakes up from its desperate napping that golden tongue is dripping and lapping the blue sky which encourages happening and the shadow self can't wait to trip you up

Watch your step
Fall from the greatest height a weightless descent through ethereal mountains and static mist where angels and demons commune and rampant emotions are hungry sliding onward through entropic erosion layer after layer courage! courage (again) courage (where?) is there an end? Stop! There you are sitting by a silent fire God is roasting marshmallows "God, I can't begin again. The peak is too high. Why even try?" Slowly, she lifts her head and looks at you with a smile on her face and a sparkle in her eye.

Losing the girl that I loved
How to leave the person that you love.. is there any right way? Can it be assumed that eloquence could be retained when you look into the eyes of the person who you love so completely and you say "I can't do this anymore." But in your mind, you are saying "what am I doing right now?" it's like an icicle forming in the hot coals of a fire, it just doesn't make sense. The pain comes in wild tangents the pain that you induced all by yourself and every single time you play out another possibility any other way out it is muddled with a sad desperation a self created deception because when your heart is breaking a bandaid won't help you.

An icicle in fire
You want more? Of course you do everyone always wants more and so you strive and you push for more never settling for simple breathing. But is this direciton just a mitigated distraction? A subconscious reaction to the subtle changes of your very humanness? You don't deal well with the fluidity of existence the unparalleled persistence of ever present change emotions flooding thoughts bombarding heart is beating theory discarding body thudding thrusting and lusting contentment oh sweet contenment and on the heels the clutch of grief despair you don't care why wake up? You can no longer participate the movement towards more you cannot initiate but wait upon the rays of golden starlight lingers a distant pang of tired delight and again you want more

More
my desires cling to the undesriable my intentions filtered through the silk of intentionlessness futile attempts to participate condemned to mute lethargy and yet, a remote part of myself is providing the musical score! The dance is fragmented disjointed sweet little morsels sprinkled delicately upon an unsatisfied foundation and the deliberate little voice chirps like a bird just being is enough all the rest is in good fun

The Dance
Yeah but he doesn't look like a normal mailman. Why does he wear that robe? Does he scheme? Is his life not limited to the docile act of dropping off letters into the boxes of the innocent? He has ulterior motive, his aura is acidic. I've already called the neighbors. Just watch him, that robe, his intentions are not of predictability, his agenda curls like smoke from home to home. Keep an eye on that mailman.

The Robe
For every toe may there be 2 antennae (proclaimed God, the mighty ***** And for every eye a tired worm. The heart of the world is bubbling over it's laughing and scratching and laughing, oh now it's coughing.
