Type this, Double tap that, Tweet this, Post that, Like this, Like that, Face Time here, Face Time there, Search for this, Search for that, Constantly searching on your iPad, Too engrossed to even look at Things that are in front if us, Typing away on our keyboards, Getting things we can't afford, Insert slang here Insert slang there, Cuss word here, Gonna tap that there, So many words we dispronounce, Walking in and out Of doors and places, Gotta go, In a rush, Typing away here and there Up and down, What has happened to this crazy town, Society.

Society Today
Every last hymn a damning sentence Those moments before the goodbyes When all is aired and all is said Brute honesty and pure rancor Those moments before the goodbyes When the gloss of love, that sweet deceitful shiny sugary layer Melts, gives way to the green mold beneath Make no effort to hide your hemlock juice In that moment before the last goodbye No mystery is left, just a naked stab Impunity unrestrained, yes, we let each other have at it My truth versus yours My memory kills yours But if i survive, the victory is pointless Because you'll never admit to the times When you colored beyond your designated lines And trespassed your paints into my veins And made yourself a home in my pains In that last moment before our last goodbye I promise, this time, you will acquiesce Or i shall keep you alive, ever in blissful torment And keep you wondering what drives my love Is it pure and whole, or an emaciated soul Patiently planning your last painful goodbye

Our last goodbye(s)
All hail the grand demise Yes that's what they expect Astonished, they wept, aghast as i arise Death came, welcomed, as they sought the prize Survivors without guilt, with laughter they All hail the grand demise Defiant, i stood behind my skill and guise A Patient witness to their slaughter Astonished, they wept, aghast as i arise Discounted, forgotten by my past allies They didnt think i'd make it from behind All hail the grand demise The few who stood before my eyes Swelled with anger and pure contempt Astonished, they wept, aghast as i arise Their efforts made vain, empty, they despise My skill and talent, at none's expense All hail the grand demise Astonished, they wept, aghast as i arise

My Rise from Below and Behind
Accrue many a delicate deep smile Never knowing when the next tear will come Or when the wails shall shadow over Plethora of reasons, those intent on joy Collect many a simple style Never knowing why the time ran out Or why the trend became a crawl Become forgotten just as it begun, replaceable Stand by many a word, written souls, alive Never knowing how far their reach can touch Or how long its power can fire, spark, alight Cavernous minds to accept them as guides While time remains graceful Disallow the procrastinated, wasteful Urge to leave masterpiece for tomorrow It may never come, then be overrun when shadows cast over Trends crawl backwards And the fire be dimmed Banishing us all to caves, hopeless and slaved

While Time Remains Graceful
It's not what's said, it's how its said Not the word on page, but what's not written Space itself has never mattered more Silent voids moving energy to and fro So refuse the urge to use every color Be kind, leave some white on the ****** sheet Rewind, reweave and excite with shortened glee Non sequiturs bonded, entwined to truths They hold secrets, just tease it softly From ear to mind to eye and back... Enjoy the subtle voyage From pen to page to volumes and back...

Be kind and leave some blank
I saw shadows dance Synchronized madness Bereft of definition Colors and forces melding For a moment, the polars met A very brief eclipse

Shades of the Dance
I ravaged the vaults and came back empty Nothing shall worry me today Yes, i even looked for troubles and woes No, nothing shall worry me today Self flagellation used to be the norm But not today, surprisingly Self doubt evaporated, steam it became Yes today, surprisingly It feels grand to be renewed, vigor and strong Into tomorrow this truth shall be And every face that kept me dark and weak No place it has, in tomorrow as the new truth shall be He, she, and they, can forget i ever cared Inconsequential beings of yesterday And let them rot as i ascend, high and bright over Inconsequential beings of many yesterdays

No place in my tomorrow
Once at the end of the song I conquered many evils of the past I purged them all, so wrong Fine and well, a time it went along Never asked a prickly question Once at the end of the song But they knew, their hurt could prolong Upon my direction and then fester, so I purged them all, so wrong Patience tested, mind paused, strong Resolved to end their laughter, yes Once at the end of the song Told to ignore, forget, to just belong No, their first move invited mine I purged them all so wrong I skewered their legacy, twist and oblong Their faces, masks, veils of evil Once at the end of the song I purged them all, so wrong

The Purge at the End of the Song
Summoning from afar a new pariah From across time and generations A new voice emerges Pained, silent exclamations She heard the call from the wild Voices of writers she admired Now her companions in spirit Her real sisters in soul Sharing an all too familiar hurt Across time and generations
