I feel like a mist
missed by the gently kissed
not seen by the loving eye
I blow away and i drift

it's hard to find peace
piece by piece, I fall apart
I soar to release
every sore on my heart

I see the sea
there's comfort in my fall
as I sink in sync
I am a part of it all...


...I blew away to the ocean blue
accepted my role to roll with the tide
I never knew I could feel so new
no one can know no better ride

perspective, getting the evidence
setting your goal on new impression
an acceptance of a blessing prevalence
the forever treasure of getting to heaven

objective, setting new precedence
no measuring the feeling of pleasance
an omnipresence, and a gift of reverence
nothing is better than getting new presents

i was born to be a thief and a vandal
i used to have a hand, I let that hand go
some of my decisions are hard to handle
at both ends is how I burn the candle

i was born to be a hard hearted killer
she reaches out her hand, I can't feel her
my feelings are all only for the stealer
for this sickness there is no healer

I need some kind of protection
protecting me from the pain
painful world with no affection
affecting me and leaving a stain

stained feelings of rejection
reject of the human chain
chaining me to my own direction
directing me more toward insane

insanity seems like perfection
perfect lunacy in my brain
brainless lunatic with no connection
connecting me to this domain
GaryFairy Nov 2013
It's ok, go ahead and be a hater
hate on me, i'll see you later
lately i have been a debater
debating with the one creator

creating a brand new being
be aware of what you're seeing
see me as your mind freeing
free me from the disagreeing

disagreements of failure falling
fall away and hear your calling
call to you to stop brawling
brawlers always continue crawling
GaryFairy Nov 2013
I tried to be a link in the chain
chaining myself to the drain
draining me, trying to remain
remaining to stay there in pain

it was just too hard to stay
staying free so that i can play
playing where the willows sway
swaying in the breeze all day

I never liked running with a pack
packing it up and not coming back
backing up my own plan of attack
attacking life and giving no slack
A quantum loop poem is when the last word is used in a different form. A double quantum is when it has rhymes for first and last words. They can be written in different ways. :)

break down the student, break down the test
if everyone knows, then we only mean best
break down the teacher, break down the desk
which one is bigger? less class or class less?
break down the hallways, break down the school
which one is the dunce with his own stool?
break down the walls, break down the fool
you know you're done learning when you need a new tool

tired of walking on concrete paths
I want to run with the wild horses
I am capable of doing the math
different natures run different courses

break the reins and free at last
change my way, change my courses
I could run away so fast
only taking from the giving sources

She tames wild beasts
wipes tears from desperate eyes
she is brave to every monster she meets
only all alone she cries

"we are all fighting a battle
we are really all the same
nothing and no one is perfect
we all have our own blame"

she helps bruises fade
brings life back to dying eyes
she is brave to every monster we've made
only all alone she cries

i was there, i held the door open
i was left standing, waiting and hoping
i was bare,  i was so broken
i am still in pieces, just living and coping
GaryFairy Feb 2015
Broken knuckles and broken thoughts
pain means I still have my breath
even on a path to nowhere
life never means any more or less

shattered life and a shattered mind
the pieces all together fit
even on a path to nowhere
keep moving and never quit
GaryFairy Nov 2014
One door closes and another door opens
I am only left here hoping
going through the same old motions
so many words left unspoken

one door opens and another door closes
it makes it hard just to focus
there's a line about thorns and roses
this is the door I've chosen

One door closes and another door opens
might not be like you're hoping
going through the same old notions
it only leaves me feeling broken
GaryFairy Feb 2015
looking back at my past
none of those hearts were ever mine
only the arrow was meant to last
embedded in my fractured spine

love lost is better than love never found
I see no difference in the two
hindsight is far less confound
foresight can be a hopeful fool

looking back at my past
only my heart was truly mine
love affairs, i've had my last
another broken valentine
GaryFairy Apr 2016
i thought that you were heaven sent
i had no idea of the hell you'd bring
thinking of all the time we spent
screaming when we should sing

you left me hurt, left me bent
left me feeling that bitter sting
wondering where the heaven went
struggling with a broken wing
GaryFairy Feb 2015
in the middle of nowhere
in a factory in the hills
they are building monsters
in the monster mills

they are stripping emotion
putting hate into the hearts
leaving out the humanity
they are using the wrong parts

the day is coming soon
when they finally set them free
the monsters that we fear
are the monsters we will be

Smack!

**** you!

Why was I "born into this"?
Sorry, I thought it was going to be longer

There is no doubt that he was a gifted man that lived and died for a reason. Maybe the reason is becoming clearer to some, and not important to others. Such is life.

(when i called for charles he growled back and handed me this. he said he wasn't mad at me, but that the dead poets wouldn't leave him alone. it seems he found an angel in the afterlife and he said he's trying to knock the bottom out of it. the other poets say he is hurting her. i told him that i can't believe he made to heaven. he said "heaven? didn't you hear my words? i am in hell!")

you are a secret agent and it's a secret to you
you have killed so many
not with words
with lack of words
you are in the same cage, running around in circles, chasing your tail
then you forget about that because a mortgage or new home stands in your way

you are not what you need, but you keep using you
you spread that **** propaganda, not for racism, but for reasons far more sinister
do it for the king, or whoever is running this *******
it's definitely a man, but i know that somewhere down the line
this train will derail and a woman will be blamed

let's keep it real, keep it evil
you see yourself as the former, but you are more the ladder
the ladder they will climb to grab ****** handfuls of cash
after the giant machine gets it's fill

a jedi mind trick inside every home
give them a phone, now they learn it on their own
all this before the age of seven
teach them about hell but never heaven
all demons want to live forever
so we name hospitals and libraries after them, these demons are clever
it takes a lot of money to keep a demon alive
with only demons being born and trying to survive
money even funds our rivers and streams
to become a lake of fire from the ***** gasoline

when fire first came out of my fingertips, it scared the hell out of me
maybe i am evil is what i kept thinking
but fire renews and brings new life
it's a gift but they don't like things weathered
they even replace their roof every year
it still does it's job, but they don't like the way it looks
the next thing they know they have leaks and mold
they kept looking up at the roof and not their floor
sinister

don't make them angry, they don't do well with anger
so it gets mixed up in their head among the other strangers
now they're deaf too, they don't hear the music
it's a shame because it sounds so beautiful when the universe re-arranges the furniture

please almighty one let me come back as a tree
so i can still stand tall while they keep hacking on me
when i fall i crash down on all when i hit the ground
which saying will you pick? to hear or not be around?
do you see the forest or do you see the trees?
one brings sweet nectar and one kills the bees
last night i tossed and turned, not mad but looking for what woke me
i think it's all around me but without that wheel, what good would this spoke be
excuse me sir, i know you're god, but where's the hub to connect
i want to be part of the whole and run over those who infect
bukowski was a lot like jesus, and the same poets that claim him now tried to malign and heckle him before. whoever says he was filthy or can't stand the bad words didn't see their own hypocrisy and even took that energy to college. i never went to college because you can't learn while being surrounded by ignorance. i am sorry that you lack humanity and common sense, but it's because you're brainwashed to the point of throwing around new bad words

she buried her face in her locker
just hoping for that ringing bell
she felt she could no longer face them
those hallways were a living hell

the names they called her hit her hard
taking her hopeful breath away
every where she went, there they were
it made it hard to face the day
GaryFairy Jan 2015
we are all in this together
aren't we all just the same
we should treat each other better
why do we play this hurtful game

words scorch, and so does rejection
burning heat of judging glares
eyes seek a downward direction
when it seems that no one cares

poison arrows aimed at destroying
hitting people in the heart
bullets fly from the fingers pointing
slowly tearing the victim apart

what we need is understanding
no one is perfect, none have the right
the bully only stands there laughing
thinking they have won a fight

but

power comes from the strangest places
a bully will only live in regret
we were made to grow in stages
they haven't seen the best of you yet

fans of apathy-monsters-winter heart-bound-trail of broken tears-i remember


There's no "go team" for fans of apathy
that stadium lacks capacity
casual acts of random vanity
man has relaxed, average atrophy

sadness lasts longer than catastrophe
forced to face the facts of tragedy
who cares what is and what has to be
our lacking will lead to our agony

monsters

The monster is never fed
something is missing in our heads
i sit upon the dust
and i walk through the cobwebs

there's an error in my dreams
nothing is ever how it seems
I realize that I'm awake
and no one hears my screams

there's a world that doesn't care
as long as it's happening over there
I sit upon the glass
and walk up broken stairs

the monster is never bled
feasting on the blood it sheds
I sit upon the rust
and walk on river beds

trail of broken tears

Whispering water of tumbling creek
braving blue ridge mountain steeps
wet feet walking on a Cherokee trail
Tom Tom, drum beat, tribal wail

forlorn flashbacks under foot
hopeless harrow, horse and hoof
savage sorrow of suffering souls
war swept wasteland, walking coals

I remember

I remember when we smoked together
rolling in a haze of pleasure
endless dreams, without measure
I wish it were like that forever

it was such a care-free feeling
knowing that you were always willing
so high, we were on the ceiling
the magic of a plant so healing

we weren't young, but we played the part
taking adventures in the dark
girl, you really left your mark
you'll live forever in my heart

bound

I found the key that opens the door
to what is to be and what is being for
bound to see a hopeless open sore
I'll never be free from seeing more

I saw the light that shines so dim
onto the monster that lives within
bound by visions of who, what, and when
I'll never be free to be happy again

I found the path that leads the way
to where tomorrow meets with yesterday
bound to see the black through the grey
I'll never be free from thoughts gone astray

winter heart

Goodbye to the summer sun
light has played the biggest part
its ok, what's done is done
I am ready for an autumn start

hello to an autumn chill
discolored leaves fall apart
its ok, what was is still
as cold as my winter heart

what makes a person worthy or worthless?
murmuring burden and hearse certain curses
first in the furnace for the hurt or the nervous
on verges of searches for earthly purpose

what makes a people deceiving and evil?
mistreating their equal and beating the feeble
bleeding of demons and beasts of the lethal
there's a reason to believe in eden of peaceful

what makes a person worthy or worthless?
versus urges emerge first on the surface
bird of the furthest turns and then merges
on verges of surges of a worthy purpose
i worked with "er" and long "e" vowel sounds

everytime I hold my head up
the sun only burns my eyes
hot enough to wake the dead up
these thoughts don't compromise

every time I put my foot down
I step on the broken glass
I search, but nothing good's found
just a burning that always lasts

i feel like the walking dead
rotten thoughts calling often
no stopping the stalking dread
crossing over from my coffin

bury me deeper

just a corpse, looking back
maggots feasting on the placid
no stopping the pulling black
passing over from my casket

butterfly poets see the sparkly things
they live in gingerbread houses
they hear harp strings

butterfly poets eat cake everyday
they have rainbow sprinkles
in a jar put away

butterfly poets talk to hummingbirds
they have the perfect ears
to hear the pretty words

butterfly poets ride on angels wings
they wear rose colored glasses
they drink evian springs

the excellence is evident in the credulous eminence
blessedness in the discipline of relevant emphasis
intelligence, if directionless, can lead to arrogance
purposeless over-confidence of pendulous relevance

defiantly, yet reliably, calliope waiting quietly
a variety of society that finds height in irony
i solemnly and politely will happily sit silently
finally facing the gravity patiently and privately
in Greek mythology, a calliope is a muse who presides over eloquence and epic poetry;

When I was a kid, I went to church the first time. When I came home my mom asked me how church was. I said  "I am a Jew, mom".
I really do want some money. I won't go as far as saying I need it, but I really want it.

we can't erase what is already on a canvas
but we can always paint over it
it seems as though someone is passing around info about me getting in trouble with the law over seven years ago. i am not proud of it, but i own my actions. i paid my debt by serving six months in jail, as well as taking a good beating for it. the past paints the future, and experiences change our lives. i am a different person now, and i can't dwell on the past. if others want to, that's fine.

living down here in this chasm
high hopes, no one has them
erosion has us sinking deeper

in dryest hopes, we endulge
living in this deep ravine

The Skipper -

welcome aboard The Lady Mother Earth

if this ship sinks, it will probably take a while

DO NOT PANIC
MUTINY WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!

some may still have to walk the plank
after sinking

lifejackets are available on the starboard and port sides

when looking toward the bow
the left-hand side is the port side
the right-hand side is the starboard side

sometimes you may have to switch sides to keep her from rolling
we do not want this lady to roll!

first, it will tilt to one end or the other

the bow is the front end of the ship
the stern is the rear end of the ship

the stern will probably go down first

you all will probably run to the bow, in that case
sometimes this can cause a teeter totter effect
sometimes that effect may keep us afloat for a while
sometimes not

although this ship was built
by the finest ship builders ever
the stern has less mass, but more density

we will have no time for physics lessons, if it starts sinking
deckhands, cooks, and even gilligan, must work together

WOMEN AND CHILDREN FIRST

I will surely go down with the ship, if she goes down...

for now, let's just try to sail on, and not think about it
let's think of charting the best course
Don't look too deeply, i'm not on the left or right...i am in the middle...keel and hull...and i'm no sailor

He fights for the freedom of us all
even though many would love to see him stall
his name is written on every wall
but you never call him until you fall

when you call him, he's right there
with his promise to always do what's fair
when he's gone you won't care
until it's time for another prayer

like a fool, he comes running again
right there to cleanse you of every sin
but after you get your new skin
once again, you kick him in the shin

Over 400,000 civilians killed in Iraq
missing from their families and never coming back
mothers, daughters, fathers, sons
why do we **** the innocent ones

it's downright ******
it's downright ******
it's downright ******

no amount of enemy troops being killed
can ever compare to the human toll revealed
doctors, nurses, teachers, nuns
why do we **** the innocent ones

it's downright ******
it's downright ******
it's downright ******

you don't know injustice
injustice is when the ones who said they came to save you, shoot you and your children in the face
(I looked through several websites and the most up to date one was a huffingtonpost story. They were direct and indirect deaths. The enemy troops killed was far too hard to find out, but even at best estimates is 100 times lower. Most deaths are to be blamed on coalition forces and US forces for sure. I felt a need to use the word "******" more than once, because we never hear the word ******, when we talk about wars. That's what it is though...******

I have created a new breed of spiders. They are so tiny that you can barely see them. They enter the human body and eat you cell by cell. I call them cell dwellers. I do not need any more test subjects to prove this...I just need to feed my little friends...

cellophane hearts, loving in parts
letting emotions be replaced
once numbness starts, feeling departs
every thought is on the chase

feeling so stamped on

cellophane dreams, hushing the screams
smacking thoughts that defeat
like reality vaccines, by any means
every day is on repeat

i think i need to move to outer space
spacing myself further from the human race
racing away at an astonishing pace
pacing myself toward stars of grace
gracing me with a solitary place
placing me within the galaxy's trace
tracing my roots in a self finding chase
chasing comets to see my own face

They don't feel like they have a reason
while they suffer, ignorance does what it pleases

they feel the coming bullets stinging
and they don't know its christmas

I wish I had a big ol' chunk of Covid. So creamy and buttery. I know that only my mind can unlock the gate to let covid through, and lock my cells in a cell. Have you ever been vaccinated? Have you ever been vaccinated while eating a big ol' chunk of covid? HEAVEN

It truly is heaven knowing that the vaccination can't hurt me. It's 2nd heaven to know that Covid can't hurt me either. How in the HELL do i get to 7th heaven?

my life was over in an instant
the stain of pain still radiates
in the tormented distance
the fat lady waits

it'll be over whenever she sings
i hear the humming crescendo
i could have done so many things
this is the end though

every second of every minute
every minute of every hour
death bed, i am in it
these thoughts will devour

my death was written in non-existence
the stain of pain still radiates
while i wallow in the missed tense
the fat lady waits

we sweat the small stuff and get upset
ready to deflect what we don't expect
storms spread and we get so wet
bad weather that we'd rather forget

we preset our heads to reject
whatever we don't see as correct
we've all bled and shed tears of regret
it's our necks that we try to protect

when letting two hearts connect
reverence has the better effect
it's the common threads that we neglect
instead of accepting we choose to except
