I lived a large
part of my youth
carrying things
that didn’t
belong to me
Indeed I’ve carried
their loads for
too **** long
The load of how
they felt about me
the load of what
they’ve said about me
the load of how
They’ve perceived me
for far too long
These load was never
mine to carry
to begin with
Today I am free
free at last
from criticism
fears , insecurities
and other people’s
opinion
These loads
are no longer mine
to carry
Regardless
how desperate
and foolish
they may seem

Set yourself FREE .... This load ain’t yours to carry!

The drool of Compassion

Sit down at the table of compassion understanding is the new fashion if only we could fashion a way to undo these knots a way to be a dreadnaaught...or not

Give me a way to move forward
A beautiful notion to move toward...

Human beings are creatures of desire
And they bend and twist as the endless require

So doth desire smile
As a creature of the moment
Its maw spans a mile
There is no lack of atonement

She walks the endless pathways of the body
And sings sweet symphony
Yet the truth of desire
Is dat she be de phony
Never apologize
Never explain
The chorus of a moment so linked with pain
These paradox we seen painfuly
And published plainly
Throughh Forbearance and friendship
This reality we tame , see?

H̻͒̏͒ͦ2◕

I asked the rain
for healing last night
Amidst the mist of forest

It was confused
wondering how to clean
the inside of a closed form

My consciousness lifted
becoming spider web lattice

discursive fractal tree
spread like a blanket atop the forest

the rain dripping down my strands
unraveling the knots life had woven

I melted and fell to the ground
to grow again as a Seed.
