he said he couldn’t breathe,
so they took his last breath

I’m so sick of feeling like it’s never going to stop. It needs to stop. It’s exhausting to know that everyday social injustice keeps happening and now that something is being done about it, everyone is ******. When I can raise my sons and daughters and not fear for their life. Only then, will I be satisfied.

prime commanders

i’m bored now with commanders that force...
to command is like to force,
to demand is to endorse activation & alignment
by whatever your intention must be.
-
so your intention must be what you will to see,
being,
displayed before all seeing eye.
-
i’m surrounded by commanders of flame...
commanders beyond games
upon chess boards.
pure input,
raw export of what no longer serve we.
-
fall as waste or
stand in grace,
if you are worthy.

Karantina

Sekian lama tak berjumpa
Duniaku berhenti, hampa
Seakan diriku dikarantina

I lost you

I lost you

I have known
All the ways
of creating memories
With you here beside me
But somehow I lost you in the way

Autumn Sky

Humans

When we won’t slow down
Mother Earth does it for us

We are the virus
We poisoned ourselves

Sit with yourself
Look inside

What do you need to be happy?
Just your breath
Your aliveness

Love for all beings
Is enough

Simplicity heals
Greed is killing us

Stop using and consuming the earth...

and the animals

Before we are all stopped
For good

The Architect

No more promises

I breathe in this uncomfortable terror
of waking up every morning,
and giving up on changing my world.

I breathe out this comfortable discomfort,
that is me knowing I can do better,
yet I feel as if I have no control whatsoever.

OCD

It's hard to explain.
The patterns in my brain
are like scratches on a CD
when all you want
is to listen to the music
but the **** thing
keeps on skipping
and repeating
certain parts
while everyone else
is dancing in their cars
and you're just trying
to drive and
breathe.

when a friend asked me what it feels like.
but there's more to it than that.
