Reject my love as you may
Slowly break my heart
Each and everyday
Beautifully Broken
Here I lay

And with
In my poem
All that could ever be
Remains unknown
Cryptic in origin
The soul's entries

Be still
As I convey this hug
Engulfing you
In my love
Close the blinds
Lock your legs
Read not these words
I insist to say

Hit like
Just to be nice
A heart that's been broken
Lies
Hidden behind
Star struck eyes
..................................

In flashes of broken light
I attempt to retrace my lack of insight
In fear of the fate that awaits
Perhaps in the end a pearly gate
The calming of such foolishness
I shudder to think of this
In times when I feel safe
  On this side of my fate...

I once got caught
In a devil's deal
Jokers, jacks
A queen of thrills
A full house
Of faceless cards
I once got dealt
A hand of liars

Yet life is that
A poker game
Double down
While you remain
Go all in
And take a chance
Win or lose
Your shirt and pants!

Frequencies of low vibrations
Restrict my even flow
The sinking heaviness
Of the poverty stricken
Weighs a tons upon the whole

See, my soul is not an institution
My love is not a level field
I cast my pearls and join the swine
With whom I share my festive meals

I retreat upon my lonely hill
And close my weary blinds
Where I saved one of their pills
To settle my restless mind

I think I'll stay home next time!

What if we stripped away all the barriers that separate societies?
What if the whole earth became one people with dignity for all?

Are you thinking about what this would do to your money?
Ya that's the problem with our kind.
We're not really on the immigrants side.

Life is one big soul test.

If like me
Your first love has failed
And inevitably
Your second
And perhaps third as well
And now thick bittersweet blood
Pumps through your veins
Take my advice
Don't give a care
Leave not the tear that stains
"For our kind"
Nobody's praying!

It hard to be patriotic
While most of our rulers are psychotic
All their crazy has no end
They lock up the poor
Whenever they can

I won't salute their blood stained flag
Nor bow to their angry gods
I'll take a knee with Kaepernick
Now that's a worthy cause!

The lesser evil can fight it out among their selves
Dark money and propaganda are proportionate of their wealth
Corporations of greed destroying our precious planet
A war machine that kills millions to survive
Shall we just take all this for granted?
Our one percent are out of control and underhanded

Standby for a wave of american immigrants
Coming to your shores
"cause it's getting hard to be patriotic anymore.

The old wolf
Despite his apathy
Instinctively
Must lead

Unlawful
The weapons
In a time of need

To bring to light
That which
The pack
Does not perceive

The luminous night
Of their ignorance
And deceit

In the gathering
They love to hate
The old wolves howl

Still he leads them
In his confident
Style

I taught myself
To learn to bend
Upon pure logic
I would depend

But had I known
The end to come
What would I now
Have said and done

In contemplations
I spend my time
Reverse, replay
Rethink, realign

Here in my head
No one else
You see I've come
To trust mainly
Myself

So don't be shy
Go right in
Inside your mind
And back again

And bring with you
A piece of heart
Contemplative
Creative art
.......

Dear Betrayal
You’ve always been near
You limited loving
Intimidator...

You lured me in
Your deceitful web
Moths of time
Dried up dread

I don’t take it personally
The action of wrong
I never assumed
You meant to stay long

The waters shall wash
And so soon we shall see
The truths that uphold
Our inventories

Dear Betrayal
I forgive you
I wish you the best
And so I shall sleep on
Straight through your mess!

Things I can't remember
And things that never happened
Are stored in the same location
  I forget where...

Do you fear
The stalkers stare
Watching you quietly sitting there
On your comfy couch all alone
He knows no one else is home
Do you fear
All that you can't see
Perhaps there's a killer
Creeping down your street
Or a rapper
***** as a toad
Leaving warts
Up and down the road

I say
Fear not
It's only fate
Close your eyes
And don't be late
Unlock that door
And let me in
I will protect you
  From your fears within...

Oh life why did you
Deal me this hand
It would’ve been easier
To be a simplistic man

To accept an end
Bow to death
Allow the darkness
Withhold the breath

All the thing simple men do
For all of life’s seasons
That happen to you

Oh life
Please hold long
Keep this body going strong
Mind and spirit
Remain aware
There’s a reason why I’m here!

Gleaming with dreamy themes
Of serene scenes, their eyes smile
Rejuvenated in vitality, afresh in purpose
The mere innocence of  child

Blessed by companionship they belong
As strong as rage the soothing calm
On lucid daydreams their spirits climb
The winds of wonder fill their minds

A day so very enchanted
Their hearts beat as one
They march on like heroes
Off into a setting sun…

Within the warmth
Of our snow covered chalet
Driven by my passion  
I sat playing guitar all day

I played from my heart
With all of my soul
Harmonic balance
As the creativity flowed

The perfect palm mute
Sound reverberating by design
All my poetic passion
Came to life

Achieving Nirvana
The tears filled my eyes
I played a guitar solo
That caressed my mind

Pain put to sound
No one else around
Except my girlfriend
Playing with her device
Not even a "that sounds nice"

And so I played
To the light of day
To the nagging cold
That's come my way...

The magic of the moment, appeals to the heart
The essence of self-expression, portrays in fine art
Denounced of all logic, abstract with precision
Her image appears to lack her heart's intuition
Taunted like bees shaken in a jar
The artist offends her emotional scars
A nerve twitches the soul, excites the old
A mind so wise yet feebly slow
Love as a game extinguishes the flame
A pretty girl in my picture, I’ve forgotten her name
The ways of creativity feeds a fire
Her innocence is lost in my desire
Beauty and passion, a lust to stay young
The heart beats of wonder, before the guilt comes
The wink of an angel, the cast of a spell
The adolescent fear of kiss and tell
Broken like glass, then falls to the ground
A tender young heart lost and never found
And so the artist hides behind his creation
Only to expose such vague insinuations

Simple acts
Of living
We author
Our own lives
Such it seems
Suppose to be's
We hold on
With all our might

The heart
It sinks
Into a hole
A shadow world
Of type
A place we listen
With closed mindedness
To the heretics of light
....

Dear friends
It’s good to check in
into the cyber world
every now and then!
Don’t let a gateway get you down
You’re still the best poets around
Trick the computer into posting a draft
But if it out smarts you
Just simply laugh
Only persistence can find the path.

Ya...
But, but
I am crazy
You see what
You want to see
There's no mercy
No not for me
All the double
Negatives  
Are meant
To deceive
Please
don't
look
At
Me
...........................

Before the world
Could stake it's claim
I was the first soul
To know your name
Before the stars could shine
From the blue's of your
Pretty eyes
Before the mountains
Before the skies
Far before the gods could know
I was the first one
Who loved you so!!!!

It's happen before
But there was always
A reason..
A bitter ending or sudden change
The heart breaking season..
Loss of children
Loss of freedom
Even trust
Turned to treason..

But not this time
I should be fine
I've worked so hard
On this love of mine

I'll be alright
I'll be fine
Meditation
Will helps keep me
Inline!

Can our consciousnesses be
Fast or slow?
Can our awarenesses be
High or even low?

You do realise
Of course...

Language was simply designed
to hide our feelings
We hide behind our poetic preserves
Whether were loving or were killing
Say what you shall
In the presence of light
Poets stands up with their words to fight

That was just a few rhymes of insight!

The oaks and the pines
So lofty and wise
Ever stretching and growing
They reach for the sky

Tender young saplings
Cry out for the light
Only to be shaded
And trampled by night

The whisper of love
In the warm summer breeze
Caressing and kissing
Ever turning the leaves

The creatures seem oblivious
To the coming of dawn
Birds singing optimistically
No need of sad songs

And so we are
In this forest to stay
Predators of might
Yet creatures of prey...

Who says that there was a beginning?
Surely an end could never be!
Unless of course we start at
the moment you pledged your love to me!

There's a demon on a chain
Believe me, he'e not tame
I'm sure he's to blame
He's the one I often frame
   For all my lame...

Blessed in all we do
While the others
All get *******
No not the Palestinians
More like a double negative
Perhaps like a Jew

Saudi oil on the right?
Yemen has nothing left
All our scattered armies
Everywhere???
Polar meltdown at best!

Leave Iran alone
Stop picking at those bone
Come on one percent
Leave well enough alone

I'm not going to use his name
He already has far too much fame
  It's Bernie or bust
In that you can trust!
And that's all I'm saying!!!

After all it didn't matter
What was said
The moment passed
As clarity filled my head

Just as always
You pulled away
How many lost souls
Did you think you could save

Oh how you failed
In times passed
How can love ever last

You survived the darkness
But did you learn to leave it behind
After all
We are only slaves
To our own mind...

It was a big leap
from nakedness to
those hideous fig leaves!

To me the gender phenomenon
parallels romanticism

Because
it’s all backwards to me
Fields of lovely flowers are all I see
Your *** is fluent and mighty
The greater the wave
The deep the sea.

Evolution can’t go backwards
or else we’d all take off your clothes
Wouldn’t that be nice
If your genitality was exposed
You do understand
We still wouldn’t be able
to see your soul...

Take a moment
Imagine a time
The vanishing
At the end of all lines..

Can you feel your heart slowing
Did you enter divine?

Contemplation of existence
As the guts sway and swerve
Beyond all resistance
Beyond all deserves

Within a Galaxy
Upon a speck
The span is endless
In the mind of depth
Catch the expansion
With every breath
There can never be
  Nothing left...

(Romanticized not derogatory)

A bard is a poet
But not all poets are bards
I love to sing
And play my guitar

Dancing comes natural
Spinning on one toe
I take a gracious bow
Into a power pose

I’m more then the rest
My poetry’s the best
I recite the hero’s creed
I lead the chant
In a warrior stance
Into the violent streets

The news of the day
Rolls off of my tongue
Stanzas dressed to please
To the local tavern
The patrons run
To drink and brawl with me

Barmaids to breed
Sweet honey mead
The good life
Yes the good life indeed!
I make a loud toast
A salute to our host
Another round on me!

From the book of
“ I say so ‘s”
(Not Isaiah)

Nothing can really be described
yet a poet paints a picture
in your mind

No one can be converted
until their truth
has been perverted

Lies needs to be believed
the truth doesn’t
we’ve all believed
a lie that wasn’t

There’s no future
there’s no pass
there’s only the present
Life is a state of either
Pain, pleasure or pleasant

Do not stop desiring to desire
The meaning of your life
Lies within your passions!

As he threw the silver at their feet
He could taste his bitter wicked deed
It festered in his immortal soul
His beliefs became his greatest foe

Be careful what you believe
Your soul is always free!

And here I find peace
With the crazy in me
The shadows in my solitude
And those faces in my trees
Oh no!
No longer do such illusions of deception deceive
Upon the echoes of consciousness
  The crazy gradually flees...

Quickly glancing
Towards the clock
How much time
Before I'm not
So much more
To be done
Frantically
Running
Towards
The Sun

Finish line
Just ahead
Fires
Burning
Green and red
What is
This big hurry
To be dead?

The laws of the universe
are written in repeating patterns.
Complicated crystals of consciousness.
Cooperation is a balancing force.
Survival of the fittest
is but death and war.
These laws are not just mine,  they’re ours.

Sugar is harmfully addictive
but imagine going without.
A taste of bittersweet chocolate melting in your mouth.
But look a little deeper processed in your bread, hidden sugars in every box and bottle that you’re fed.
Mailodextrin the silver bullet of death, they sprinkle it on your potato chips and they hide it in your dips! Processed and re-processed till the sugar has been refined, many American eats 3 pounds of sugar a week and of that fact they’re blind.
Insulin levels suffer as the diabetics take their dope, another box of ice cream, another cherry Coke.

Pharmaceutical, healthcare and insurance profiting..
A sudden stop by McDonald’s on the way to Burger King.

The only evil
that we need to fear
is not over there,
it's over here!

The agendas of fools
who abuse our flag.
The acceptance of military officers in drag.
Weak and weary is become our brigades,
under a leader who can't find his way off a stage.
Mumbling and stumbling
and going to war...
The lesser of two evils
all the way to the core.
There's no reason to be proud,
no not 🚫 anymore.

As many as the stars
Who could ever count the scars
Left on the shadows of time

Caught in mind traps
That part of us naps
And away our liberties pine

Blessed be the meek
Such superstitious freaks
How lovely the stars
In their eyes

Blessed be the tides
That crash on my mind
In pictures I just can't define...

Voices in the closet
Where do they disappear
Eyes within the darkness
Creatures in the mirror

Shadow's of lost reason
Tossed and turning bed
Guess I got it coming
My heart keeps
Thumping dread

Long in to this living
Life becomes a maze
Soon the day shall follow
The night shall go it's away!
.....

We still share
Memories
I hold mine dear
I wish I'd never
Crossed you there
Still, in the end
You were never
Really mine
Except for these
Memories
You left behind
................

Give me your blimished
Tarnished flesh
I will devour
What ever is left
Expose to me
Your Taddered soul
What ever remains
From years ago
When you were happy
And life was just fine
Tell me Poetess
What's on your mind
.....

Follow me down
The rabbit's hole
Take my soul
Oh debt I own
Tonight I sleep
In lotus-land
As I play the role
That life demands
The lover
The dreamer
The keeper of flames
The winner
The loser
The person to blame
The foundation
The promise
Who's always on call
You guessed it
Your Father
The one who
Stands tall...

Dead and dying the second death
My eyes grow dim, faint of breath
Still I run
Thoughts exhausted, logic fails
An endless flight I exhale
Still I run
Shards of rock, broken glass, barefoot past
Callous mind, soaking sweat blind
Still I run
Round and round, winding down
Nowhere bound, lost and never found
And still I run
Dreams of old come and go
Rain and snow my greatest foe
Still I run
Body ailing, muscles failing
Obstacles I swerve, constant left-hand curves
But still I run until I'm done
In the early morning hours
And then I go in ... and take a shower

I know all to well
How goodbye’s feel
That look in your eyes
Your about to bail
I’ve felt that feeling
That flight through hell
Being left behind
In darkness to dwell

Yet I’ll be okay
When you go away
I’ll pick myself up
At the end of the day
Thinking of you
Drinking a beer
I’ll be wishing
You were still here
......

Dare you read this
And my truth be further known
I started out
The ******* child
A soul abused and alone
After four children
Of his own
I became the child
Father would not condone
The drunken *******
Was always ******

I found love out there on the streets
Always staying ******
With a young gang or
Friendly thief's
They taught me the ropes
How a city boy is supposed to cope
It's been
Eight years now, out of the pen
I look back and cringe
It all started in a place called
Flint.......

My muscles are fatigued
So will you please
Hold this world
For me?

The spiritual ladder is somewhat the same for everyone
"Archaic" beginnings as the spirit takes growth
Into "Magical" beliefs that fill our hearts
With Utopian reprieve

Yet the "Mythical" awaits like a principal in the next room
Wielding the Bible Belt of fundamental values
And if we were truly blessed we reach for
"Rationality" the next rung
On the ladder of spiritual evolution

This is the kicker:
Rationality leads to Agnosticism
And Atheism
But have no fear
For if you truly have the gift
The next rung will soothe your
Wayward soul

"Mysticism"
This is where you will find the masters
The Shamans
And yes, some Saints
Those who are known to live in the higher states
States of Enlightenment
The realization of Oneness
It is locked inside of each and everyone of us
It rears its presence in spiritual spikes
On the lower rung of the
Ladder Of Spiritual Evolution

So in conclusion
Only those of the higher rungs
Are the ones that we can't understand
We are not there yet
Or at least I'm not
Not this time around anyways...

There's no single point
Where we became ourselves
No sacred moment
That sent our spirit south

All these different experiences
Bouncing around our heads
Gathered from a life time
Of pleasure's painful
Pure misguided dread

Love beyond measure
A fleeting slight of hand
An absolute description
That solitude demand

Still we cannot see
Whats tearing us apart
Staring in the mirror
At our final work of art
.............

Endlessly I push these stones up these steep hills
My body wears down but the need is all I feel
Who am I that believes in such a cursed cause
Who am I but a voice of forgotten and betrayed gods
Repeating the madness in my weary head
Pushing rock up the hills of a life of dread
What is it for, fears is an unwanted emotion
Still
I fight with insight to find my path of true devotion

The next door neighbors
Had their own
Bomb shelter
In "their" basement
If the bomb dropped
This family of seven
Planned to safely survive
But
Many town folk secretly planned
To also pack in
Friends and strangers
All who knew about it
Their
Closest and farthest kin
All would be crowded inside
To eat up their snacks
Their five children had told
Everyone at school
Imagine that!
Standing in front
Or waiting out back
Not enough room
Survival was stacked
Thank goodness
The Russians held off
Their Attack!!!!!
