After

I
got caught crying
mother

spectacular.

Believing in nothingness
Is simply not knowing
The truth
It is like asking your
Adult son the sum total
Of one plus one

Whatever you believe in
Will be a revelation of the truth
Khoisan Jan 2021
It's only love
no reward required
Tell it like it is
this is your story
your life your truth
let them hear your heartbeat.

Tracking white noise
relentless beating
coming from the "cockpit"
his heart is a Blackbox
with cracked ribs and broken wings
her search is in vain.

The

She stepped up with vengeance
for something I haven't done
I yodel a cannister of pepper spray down my throat.
The doctor wore a white coat
she casualled
he's my ex plumber
So I thought I'd
push the remote.

Scary convictions
is it my decision or not
reality hit a brick wall
where am I who am I.
Truly depressing back to the wall stuff ?

Stitches
and punchlines
satanic
lies
from majestic quotes,.
And
there I lost it
shades of
vanity
shards in the mote
on
I prodded
on
I poked
me
myself
and
my
narcissistic jokes,.
Untill
my water broke,
hibernated beneath
this
opaque plastic gloat
in
a
rippled mirror
cracked up
and
ruefully smoked.
True story
I once knew a guy who had 12 kids amongst 4 different wives
none of the children really got to know him neither did his wives called himself a rolling stone and that's how this father never a Dad died.

Out by the handle
Into the cold

In with a candle
Brave and bold

Out by the handle
Battered and sold

In with a scandal
Whithered and scold

Out by the handle
A little bit old

In with dirt sandles
Covered with mould

Out by the handle
To the door he hold

In with a hand drill
A true story is told

The hinges ******* off
love handles I hold
Told to me by a vagabond enjoy

From the colloseum of
vanity

His opaque desecrated
Light

Eluded her sanity

Locked onto venom lips

The ghost from his mouth

Burnt a hole in her soul

And then It swallowed them whole
Vanity a boring and pointless perception
Please be careful of that pitfall

Ink of red hearts

Shredded to pieces

Then
she
started wishing
a
doctor would inject morphine
into
his black heart
so
his
venomous tongue
could let her down slowly
In support of abuse against women and children
NO means No more violence against women and children

Verlate gebroke hart
haar gesig staar verlam
net die liefde
hou vlam
tot-dan wag sy
in
vergange woude
gegrond op verlange.

Broken-hearted alone
her face a-glare of tragedy
a
slave to love
waiting on tinder
in
forests of decay
grounded on cinder.

I

War
Octagon

Unseen

OF

where men enter in the name

The point OF no return

Wait in vain

None could see the future
and
None will ever know
that
all

died in the glory
OF
what

never
received
In the name OF peace power greed
the list is to long to mention
Somewhere somebody
Is
Going to die
die
By the name
OF
Octagon of seven referred
To the 7 continents

Raw burnt fingertips
hell bound blown
overexposed
scull thought to the bone
in the overtone of death's
ever risising crimson tides
still your love for humanity
must never die
I heard it in the rain
falling from so many eyes
you are free from it all
for the meek and mild
were also the bold
blood became water,
streaming
from a fearlfull heart
of stories
never been told.

From telephone

to no phone at all
you might have called it
before you knew it
who knows
tomorrow could just be
a day away
from your 999th birthday.

Why are you like that my children ask
Climb into my head I said
And you will find
I'm not afraid of you
And you are not afraid of me
Regeneration of good values good parenting equilibrium

Rivers and Oceans
Are filled with wonderful beings
we are left awestruck
Lawless trawlers and haulers
wallets plastic and dollars.

She is
the water
immersing the shore
a
motion moving entities
into
the
shadows of the lore
sirens call on rising tides
men of flesh flock
in
waves
falling as they fly
dwelling
eternal
within her mystical whiles.

There is a story behind tears
breaking
in
joy or fear
a
melody
of
seeds
filtrates
the
ground
a
song of hope
that
sprouts
from
a
sound
Weeping is therapy to the soul
don't feel ashamed to cry
It helps
It is recommended
In the Bible
Jesus wept three times
It is a normal human emotion
Khoisan Feb 2021
It took his resolve
a mere tear
to settle the drought
that lasted for years.
Don't be afraid
Even God's weep.

The unsuspecting bow splinters
harpoons leap at qualms
beneath
the
deep
determined to savage the bounty
that
seperate
glory from night
abruptly
Inexplicable
saline
sob limb and lung
A
watery grave
tugged by rope on spear
the creature pall bear It's captors into the dark bellows
of
the cruel sea
stuck to the whale
Hero
  of a thousand tales
I wish this was a true story
in fact the opposite is true for WHALES
Very few countries still practice whaling
Killing around a thousand Whales per annum
After decades of protection
The NORTH ATLANTIC RIGHT WALE'S
POPULATION IS FEWER THAN 300
This is dedicated to all nature conservation
Efforts protecting this beatiful mass that is so important to the ecosystems around the globe

It's like meeting
a less popular school friend
and you just can't
bend your head around it
and every word
the guy speaks
places the two of you
together in the middle
of the action
to the point
that you just frankly say
I can't remember a thing
truth be told
the event was real
you just don't know
this guy from Adam.

Tik tock click glock
a two edged blade
the pendulum slits
another cog flips

a ear to the right
everyone heard
none exactly saw

It is not
the wind,
my favorite thing,
or a dreamcatchers feather
on a shamans ring,
those are spellbound
in the mystic of this sound
from midnight to sunrise,
it is the whisper
of your breath,
that opens my eyes.
