Be it lions and tigers
Or sharks and whales
There's no way around
This trip through hell

So lock and load
Your heart and soul
Take your aim
And let love flow

In this life
You can never win
If you don't get out there
   And try again...

This is but a small sad token
Of a promise that has been broken
Spring was but a lie
All her magic has gone awry
There'll be no thawing
Only a frozen heart cringing, clawing
Through the ice of hardship
Left to bare
There'll be no warming
No, not yet here!

In days cut short
Of warn out soul
While immortality
Insist on growing old

Through tired eyes
Too dim to see
When from this evil night
My soul shall flee

How quickly
A simple smile fades
There shall be
No comfort, nor praise
Ridicule nor disdain
No eyebrow raised
In the bitter end
Of my days

All but love
Shall not delay
When the spirits
RIP my soul away
The harbinger's words
The curse of life
This has been a losing fight

There shall be
No comfort for me
No I don't believe...

Cool autumn fall
Glow from the moon
All of the Poets
Asleep until June
Mine is the silence
An itch in an ear
Awaiting the whispers
As the veil reappears

Within a fraction
Of a witch's blink
The heart beat quickened
In the beauty of beast
To behold the harvest
And embrace the flight
The Poet now stricken
With the season of night

Never a clearer channel
Shimmering shining bright
In the blinking of an eye
All that’s hidden comes to light!

Accelerating
In the movement of the stars
Unlimited conditions
Emerging creative fires!

Can you feel it?

It washes over me
The ***** mucky tides
Assuring my beliefs
Evil has to die
Headed out to seas
Manipulating lies
Squirming
In my stomach
Just below
My mind...

They are  manipulating us
Against the manipulators
While we are busy
Manipulating
Our own lives
To fit our needs
All and all
It's all about
Selfish greed
That is of course...
Dark Energy!

the extrovert that thinks too much
I lose touch of my feelings
and fall out of love
I feel to get drunk
but quit at one beer
I am ready to go
but life put me here
........

Lets pretend
There's no wars going on at this very moment
Hell let just write about beautiful things that make us happy
Those people hiding in foxholes and dugouts are not real
Ukrainian conscripts and dead Palestinians children...
All conspiracy theories, go back to dinner.
Why would we lose sleep?
Lets pretend and forget about being free.

Who is this lower self?
Barbarically weak
Seeker of wealth
While I sleep
He drives me blind
Façades of fears
Thoughts unkind
I grab and hold and tie him down
he has no strength only pronouns
But soon enough I tire
Tempted by this ever present
white liar…

Never give up!

Anger is a scary thing
Imagine being angry for year
Never knowing it was caused
from being insecure.

You were
easily enraged
Your daddy was drunk
Your mommy was late
an unfulfilled childhood
was your adolescence fate

Now that part of you
is still raw
And now you’re angry at us all!

But I still love you!
P.S
I wish I could’ve raised you with mine!

I'm so glad not to know him
  He was what he was I'm sure...
Fortunately my memory of him
Is but a beautiful blur...

I remember Tim in the old days
Such a young foolish man
Traces of his childhood
Blemishes of who I am

When he died
I killed him
By the mercy of my being
So if you happen to see him
Remember
It's actually me
That your seeing
............................................

I wake early every day
in anticipation of the rising sun

For me, unlike most my peer's
my life at sixty
has just begun

My body feels so good
so strong, so right!
I've taken up mindfulness
I've let go of strife

I don’t have a lover
My money is really tight
My truck needs new tires
My neighbor's
for some strange reason
want to pick a fight
But...
all of that
is but mere shadows
beneath this
Poet's light!

At the biological level
We are made up of
58% microbiome
And 42% human tissue

At the quantum level
We are made up of
a hundred trillion cells
And each cells has
a hundred trillion atoms


Perhaps consciousness is the glue
That holds us together!

(Immigration)

And now
To top it all off
The loveless fake news stations
Are completely out of touch
With reality...

It seems the obvious
Normal reactions of humanity
(Love, mercy and compassion)
Are somehow over shadowed
By some type
Of logical human bigotry...

Sadly even our highest courts
At the highest of our thinking
Have decided
To allow such
Moral depletion

Where will they go
Where will they stay
How can we turn
Their children away?

.
.
.
.
.
.If you watch the news
You know
It's our own children
Mass murdering
Daily, non stop
Youth killing youth
And ya, every
Now and then the immigrants
Snap also, but not nearly as often...

No easy answer
Just take cover!!!

Dreaming
Is for sleeper
I dreamt of you and I

I should have been
Your angel
But I was
Too afraid to fly

Back then when
I met you
We were
Running
With the rapture

Too many
Tasty nuggets
Now our children
Are all *******

Breached the
Gates of Eden
Where love
Is quite unfair

Grasping
To hold the one
Whose love
Was never there
...

Getting me out of my own way
isn’t ever easy..
My ego is rather big
and mostly greedy…
Feed me more
cry’s out my empty core
On and on I fight
this losing finite war…

Beliefs or the lack thereof
Who should be concerned?
Indifference causes what indifference does
Perhaps in time we'll learn

They’ll either comprehend or miss the mark
Then some shall judge the latter
An impartial praise from the common man
How wisdom tends to flatter

Did he leave his mark on a simple man
The eyes that dimly see?
Did he cast a spell and from a prison cell
Set the poor sap free

Perhaps it’s some sort of play on words
Or some new feeling deep inside
Still one way or another
We all remain truly blind...

At the biological level
We are made up of
58% microbiome
And 42% human tissue

At the quantum level
We are made up of
a hundred trillion cells
And each cells has
a hundred trillion atoms


Perhaps consciousness is the glue
That holds us together!

Cast to the universe
This longing for forever's
Riding plasma streams
Eternal internal endeavor

Eyes of the sky
Outshine the nights
Stellar winds
Feverish flight
Shooting stars
With all our might

All we are
Implosive Quasar
Accelerating lives

Will it ever cease
This hunger to be
Can we ever get it right?

The frequency of my love
Is in the strokes of my heart
Beating in atonement
With my music and my art

Lifting ever higher
The vibration of my will
I have come to realignment
Where peace is all that’s real!

I can’t take back
The love I’ve given
It’s carved in stone
Who am I kidding

You're in my brain
Fast asleep
I can escape
A love that deep

I can’t forget
I can’t move on
Hell
I can’t remain dry eyed
When I hear our song

So who the devil
Cursed my mind
I fall for you every time!

Who shall own the words
Printed on the page
Did you form a new vocabulary
That only your words say

Were you there went utterance
Turn to song and dance
Who are you to be cashing in
On Elementary English Class

......

It's only a shadow
Passing over
This darkened
Day of dread

Take my hand
Hold on tight
Rest your pretty head

Upon my heart
Upon my shoulder
Tuck yourself in deep

Take me down
To your garden
Between your silken sheets

I shall be your
Knight in armor
I shall be your muse

I will be your burning flame
Come and light your fuse
..........

I want to run away
Start somewhere anew
I need the samething
The same thing
As you
Empty I die
Alone in this life
I would treat you
Better than right
Don’t let us starve
Without a flight
Send me a message
Chance our lives!

Learning and evolving
Primitively revolting
Problematic solutions
Ideological institutions

Mergence of shadow
Disassociation of ego
***, ecology, spirituality
Check, check, check

Why am I still broken?

Plagiarize if you like
Hell, tell them these are your writes
Copy and paste them from my page
I've written of love and I've written of rage
Take your choice it all conveys...
And...
If and when you claim my words
Perhaps you'll start a trending curve
My typos need no disclaimers
Likes and comments from complete strangers
Oh yes!
The same way Traveler Tim gets his jollies
You too will be living the life of Riley!

I believe my truck
Is still in the driveway
Where I parked it
Last night...

Shall we dine
On wine and flesh?
There seems to be
Plenty left!
So pass around
The possum pie
Wine made out
Of dandelions

Lazy days
Of summer sun
Sleeping in
Like we're still young
Falling free
Blue ocean skies
Let our hearts
Never die...
......

Looking glass of god
Are you shattered upon the earth
Broken are the prophets
Who were raised up from their birth...

Used to bring a message
Then shed like old dead skin
Open up I'm coming out
From this hell you left me in...

Let silence be our guide
And peace will set us free
Or be lost within the illusions
Of some ancient mystery...

No test
no lesson to behold
life keeps kicking me
lower then low
a snow covered tent
deep in the woods
an old abandon barns
with a caved in roof
the cold follows me
as I aimlessly trek
in search of somewhere
I haven't tread yet

Suffering
That lead
To nowhere
Reparations
That never
End
Behind
The mind
Set of Noah
The shadow
World depends

Upon our own perception
We bound both life and death
Catch and ride the rapture
Believe that you'll be blessed  

Me
I chose to travel
To a better place and time
Birthed into new blindness
Yet, still with open mind
.......

Dear sweet
Elizabeth J
"Willing canvas"


In dilation of aesthetic
I contemplate your
   Fleshly poetics...
Canvas of my desire
Sensations round
Every curve
I catch and ride
   Your inviting words...

In soothing rhymes
Moving so smooth
I Match your stride
In stanzas quite lewd
Hips to tip
My thought drive
Your clay I form
In my ***** mind

Commentary

Connection

Dear
Sweet
Poetess
Let me in
.....

When she comes home
I change the music that's on
She doesn't know I cry
I can't understand my own emotions
And I'm afraid she might ask why

Why I can't sing without chocking
Why my eyes water and I become quite
It has to be tied to some sissified weakness
I can still hear my father say...

Some wall built a hundred years ago
Built between yesterdays regrets
And a thankful heart
To have survive with mind
Somewhat intact

Perhaps under my music
Is where I buried yesterdays pain
But I can't help but drown
In my own solitary rain...

Dear forces for good:

Please quit fighting
each other…

There’s enough good to go around!

It's the little things
I keep pushing aside
Under the rug
Of forgetful mind
Piles of concerns
Weighing me down
As if my voice
Has no sound

Paralyzed in free fall
My spirit descends
Into the abyss
Pulling me in
All of these small things
Now weigh a ton
Let it all go
And I will have won
''''

Thankful to be alive
I am drawn to Nature's side
Fully aware of my decline
Pining away
In a beautiful rhyme

Holding tight in Her embrace
  Spiral ride through outer space
Smiles and laughter, seldom I cry
Living out Her beautiful rhymes

Caress by her soft air
Blown by her winds
Rain pouring down
Let Her ascend
All but a beautiful
Rainbow in mind
Blessed be the Pagan's
Living Her rhymes
  ....

Year after year of husbandry
I've come to know my flocks
The mutts are all but purebreds now
Their love and loyalty is my lot!
To the howling at the moon
To the coyotes across the field
Heckling laughter fills the night
  A hunger for the ****...

The crops are doing well this season
Still the buds will need to dry
I make my sacrifice of reason
Blowing smoke rings to the sky

And here my heart beats of wonder
As she lays down in my bed
She quietly calms the thunder
Going on in my head
I can feel the goddess
Deep within my sheets
I pray like a pagan
For my love and world to keep
....................................................

I am forgivable
I am forgettable
It’s up to you
To just let it go!
Or hold on tight
As long as you can
But you should know
I don’t give a ****
It’s your life
It’s your heart
I never meant to tear it apart.
Still I will not remain in the hell
Of the victimhood
You’re trying to sell.

I’ve been compartmentalized
Because of my labels
I’ve been ostracized
Because of my sight
They try to drown me in their river
And so
I swam with all my might

So if you wonder
How I got here
And why I am sopping wet
I was forced to learn to swim
To escape the fishers net.

Are you still treading water
In the deep end of beliefs
Learn to swim my friend
And
Drown with me in peace
...................

From behind my eye
I take it all in
The hatred, the loving
The refusal to bend
I see the desires
The motivation of views
The forges we set
Molding our youth

I see the blind side
Of brilliance
The brilliance
Of being blind
Watching it all unravel
From outside of time
But mostly I see
A world of dread
Unsettling inside
My weary head
............

When shall
Existence allow
The perception
Of awareness
To finally
Know how
To rise
Beyond self
And live
In the now
Why must
The system
Always
Breakdown
...

Walls
Can keep us out
They can also hold us in
Literally, physically
Subliminally slim...
Perhaps
The greatest wall
We'll ever scale
Is to overcome
A living hell
Or forgive
A Judas kiss
If you lost it all
Would you still be rich?
Walls can leave you
Without a stitch
...

If memories become flesh
In the form of grey matter
Then perhaps good lovin'
Can make our brains fatter..

Your insufficiency
Is only overshadowed
By your insignificance
Now with that said
I'll have another beer...

This is a poem
About ***
Deep lustful
Honey dripping
Perhaps you'll be next
But then again
This is a poem
About sin
And in the end
Sin always
Seems to wins
So instead
This is a poem
About doubt
Because surety
Is but a silent shout
And all these thing
I need to get out
That's what poetry
Is all about!

Why are people so ****** mean
He never asked that question
You know, the Nazarene

With whips and flips
They clear the halls
Yet I cannot stomach
Another lost cause.

I've lost the connection
Not a signal to be reached
My heart is a cell phone
Lost on a beach

Tide coming in
Sandy, wet and cold
My poem
Is but a voice mail
  My battery
Running low

Contacts gone forever
Not a cloud to hold on
This device of all I am
Sinking in a pond...

Differently
This time around
The roots of tomorrow
Are no longer bound
No debt can ever
Truly be paid
No reward last forever
And even less than a day

Differently now
Don't lose heart
Begin again
This marks the start
Spring has sprung
The days of new
The power to change
Is within you...

Alone in this world
Is how I begin
Invisible beings
I come to depend
With belief so strong
Right led wrong
I fell to my knees
And cursed along
But it's
Too contradictory
To travel there
Mindsets that lead
Us to old fashion fears
Alone with beliefs
Of being alone
That's the true hell
That keeps me ******!

Love and passion compel me through the nights that last to long..
No invisible entity can touch me, my muses are far too strong!
I don’t need to strain my eyes to see what can’t be see from afar
We know that evils out there,
cause love is who we are!
