I usually do T'ai Chi
when everyone else has gone to sleep.
Not really because I'm bashful about it,
although I am,
but because I do it when
I slow down enough to remember
that it's there
to do.
-
I think of it as sparring with one's Chi;
Pull the Energy in, push it back out:
Pretend that your ****** actions are as breaths
for a larger Godself-energy, or Chi,
and the universal sustaining Energy being breathed is Tao
(For lack of better terms, hah!)

Visualization makes the Energy more real in the Mind
and who's to say it can't follow elsewhere?

May the Force be with you.
i wish my name was
matilda or something that
sounded beautiful when said by
a starbucks barista or
a boy with rustled brown hair
who loved me

if my name were
matilda maybe i would be
someone better who
didnt hurt people who cared about her
and didnt lie about
how they really felt

i wish my name was
matilda because i have already
tarnished the name that i was
supposed to make great and be proud of
my name isnt matilda
but i wish it was

Acid at ICU
 Jul 2013 Amber Grey

we were at the hospital the other day
on acid
saw some people
that looked
subhuman
started thinking those thoughts
like
how i would **** them
and get rid of
all of them
the acid talking
i breathed
and stepped out of the hospital to breathe
no smoking sign
telling me i can't do that
right here
fresh air
is near
over here
by the flowers
i smoked
a girl with purple hair
around me
very near
"is that your peoples?"
no no no
laughing
i don't know why
he thought she was with me
we were just staring
fading
tripping
the flowers looked 3D
the bee inside
looked like some **** from planet earth
i heard it there first
my first trip
a visit
to see a friend
struggling to breathe
while we smoke out front
walked into icu with a blunt
celebrating life
thinking about memories
and how they make us
rely
on what we know
and remember
to tell us the future
but
it's really what we make it
we can create new
break down barriers
break down the walls
make new paths
in the brain
heal
recover
breathe stronger the next day
