2 birds ****** on the wire
twerpin textual transfers tween the tethered typers
dun do dunbar
over 140-something it's had to find trust
in characters
orphaned
or
widowed
by the pack of typed faces and masked meanings
leading me on, em-dashing my mind

My girl *****'d up on a Friday. Thor's day has been garbage night on my block for a while (thanks for the reminder) dawn breaks on through, hoppin' mad through looking glass and where the sky meets the lake, so blue, what're lies, n what be true, really the answer is tween me n u

Oh my girl
I know it feels so rough
broken bones and tender bruises
aint no bluff

You're doing more than you know
it's just starting to show
no time to blow it
nor up.
get down.
with what is
you always knew it wouldnt' be easy
keep going, you're dancing, flowin' grliding, stop slidin'

like water, move like this. Ignore what's that?
Eyes on the road, trees = SMACK!

simplify it if you gotta
as long as they eye is on the prize and out of the gutter
the house was set ablaze long ago
the foof was on fire and were were meant to let it burn

we don't got clean water anymore.
trophies in the junkyard
and the downtrodden are no longer bards.
the songs got scripted a long time ago

voices, minds, and songbirds are all in tow
she resembles, ensembles have been bought and paid for
the tune is made of ichor and rot, played for us, siren songed us
lured into the depths of self.

tongues caught by cats and all in knots
tunes whistled through the air
through crevaces and cracks
even the stones began to sing
when the world went so out of whack

birds changing staccato beats
maybe ends were met

echoing new words through
the halls and words back to struts
sparrows and robins, the hood and new tweets

She's lacking
creative blocks and anger
Whre's your inner truth?
What are your deepest feelings?
You've got potential.

Apparent contradictions
perpetually confusion
Oh the fool
such a fool
maybe we should start a new

Stop holding back!
You're holding back
you've know it all along
Be here
You're needed nnow
This situation needs your full attention.

You cannot sit around paralyzed by rhe fear of the ticking clock
if you don't move around your joints go on lock

Your fears are all twisted around as the not
it makes your brain go all mushy with rot

It has all fallen apart much worse than this before
and the heros journey isn't much different than lore

Surived this that and will again
knowing how the river bends

Don't make yourself sick with worry or anger
fear is the mind-killer that leads you to danger

Focus on the simple - the ins and outs of breath
tread water quickly, kicking your legs to avoid the depth

The core, of working up the strenth to do more.
bouncing off the walls - at least not the floor.

Eyes were always pointed down, worried I'd miss the next step
but chin up, eyes forward, is a way to maintain the pep

Remember to bring yourself to stand tall
confidence to dance instead of fall

Pride and confidence, ego and narcissism
not knowing where to defend and where to say yes'm

It's the mini moments that make the most out of momentum
and mega meta merrymaking modilties mean more than modems

Having a hard time deciphering what got me in this twist
I guess I'll just go and take a look at my list.

What's good, what's bad, what's to do or to see
what's real in the world, or just inside me?

of the pen
of the keys
Always doing
what pleases

but my babe
should know by now
even tho we play
There's no teasing

making decisons
with each stroke
been sitting pretty
while you go broke

turns out - you left me
here from the start
and now when tables turn
you get to play your part

collecting keys
to the karma
released the hold
on the leash to the dogma

turns out good pups
know truth more than training
when the good boy runs away
To be left begging

i hope that dog
knows when it's free
and hasn't turned tail
when hot air breathes

the natural comes back
and pets still have power
sometimes there's reasons
that birds leave the tower

leadership failed
made too many mistakes
and now each and all
pump the breaks

Those in need
Have felt so far gone
the hardest workers
have the best brawn

I'm excited
to see the realignment
released from the cage
before the break of confinement

caged birds be singing
their souls remember the tune
to some it's shrill and piercing
the screeching has come so soon

let it go, let it drop away
it wasn't here to stay
you had it one way
now it's the day

It's been this way for so long
we were held down with sad songs
rippin brains out with the bongs
so the woes wouldn't have us in throngs

now it's time for us to live
we've given all we have to give
sand has all been put through sivs
I repeat, it's time for us to live.

I like being useful, having fun, learning, playing, etc.
having a body/being human/making decisions/thinking/remembering meh
not into it
