& ( maybe ) ....... ?

::

And maybe

Something matters

//

WHAT ?

•

___


•

into the wilderness we stagger

:/:

black birds white birds

High above

//

So

What is it about you

That you think I need to know (?)

~~

•

~~

as all facades collapse

And only simple stories

From those seeking reality

Remain

/:/

LOVE STORIES ! LOVE STORIES !!

in the black night streaked with red

in the death song and it's bloodiness

//

what is it you want to tell me (?)

What is it that you think I need to know (?)

•

In this the dark and ****** night

:/:

So

When it is said

I LOVE YOU

( YOU // of course //

Being the generic name for a ***** )

& that

WE

are the

WHOLE WORLD !

The

UNIVERSE !

//

Where does actual HUMAN LIFE fit in ?

( where do ......I ..... fit in ? )

•

Why

When reading such .... Words

Do I feel such an unbounded hatred

Coming at me ?

•

obviously

The writer has such disdain for the audience

That he or she does not even bother

To acknowledge its existence !!!

ONLY THE LOVER AND THE BELOVED !

( and the BELOVED is only there as a foil

For the SELF DESCRIPTION of the writer

Who ULTIMATELY  is the ONLY subject of the thing

//

the arrogance !

The sheer narcissistic egotism !

•

I ask :

Why is such evil hateful trash

Promoted as expressions of love

( and we know

No one shall DARE REVEAL THEMSELVES

By answering the question ! )

•

Since when did COWARDICE

become the chief feature of HP ?

//

Fear of actually talking to the audience

Fear of acknowledging the total life of

The  victim ( YOU -the ***** )

Fear of seeing a simple relationship

As being part of nature and a part of the world

••

JUST SOME ******* USELESS STUPID DRAMA

GLORIFIED !!

( why ? )

/:/

why such an expression of hatred for the self and others

Disguised by such ornate meaninglessness ?

//

I know I talk of this a lot

But it is painful to watch

Young people die

::::  yes we can
                                                                  ( & so we shall )

//

shall we turn the world into a place of love again ?

••

••

she walked away

From all the games

Being played

||

she entered the sacred

She came to regain all her Magic

she came with all power as her own

••

love

||

Little child

Come to be here in the light

//

we shall be as god intended

•

Shall we turn the world into a place of love again ?

Yes we can and so we shall

//

really

All the so called love poems here

were born in the hell of diseased minds

and show no sense of love at all

//

we all know that

//

The real sickness is that we refuse to acknowledge this

Obvious fact

And hence

As the COMMUNITY WE CLAIM TO BE

we never address this problem

//

Hence

We are not a LOVING community !

( but then

How can we be

Since we don't know what love is ! )

//

So

On and on !

//

Just think !

10 more years of

OH

HOW COULD YOU DO THIS  TO ME !!!

I'M GONNA DELETE YOU FROM MY FACE BOOK PAGE

BOO HOO !

:::

all written to fantasy people

Who all got the same name ! ( you )

//

unknown people

//

Never described people

//

Never thought about people

//

Just there to be possessed

//

Just there to be used and abused

Dumped on and cried about

With dry tears

And a haughty heart

Seeking a sense of superiority

/::/

Spewing forth the Desease of the Lie

Into the minds of the BELOVED COMMUNITY


•

I MUSE upon you

Looking for some handle

But you reveal nothing but the politically correct facade !

::

good for a few laughs

If one is morbid enough

To enjoy watching you die

:::

I LOVE YOU

/:

does anyone have even the slightest sense of what I mean ?

Does anyone want to ?

does anyone really want love at all  ?

0                                                                                


//                //

Me ?

|~|

I love the girl ain't afraid of death

:::

Some say

Love is when you really want to be with someone !

You know

NEED !

:::

where'd they hear that crap ?

//

the long day

The long night

//

the long unwinding of a life

In a simple afternoon

••

the arrogance !

To write some **** addressed to some YOU

and post in on HP !

/:/

Talk about HATRED !

//

Only a hateful stuck up  person

Would do such a thing !!

//

//

The silence of the calm breath

Constantly overflowing

/:/

ALL THE FACES IN MY MIND !

ALL THE HOLINESS PRESERVED !

/:/

I'm not afraid of death

But

( then again )

Death is not afraid of me

//

Come on

It's not too late to be human

(  Possibly  )

She plays her flute

As she walks thru the dreams

Of the heroic

Boys and Girls

she don't waste time

She don't read

All your lame - *** poetry

The CHLD knows necessity

She comes swiftly to his side

I'll walk with her 1000 miles

You can call it what you want

No one listens anymore

But you know

There may not be a tomorrow

So your love don't mean much

Everyone talks the big talk

Everyone ***** in the late afternoon

Everyone doin the run - a - round

Nothin means a thing to you

///

You say you walk the starry night

Dreamin a me

( whoopee ! )

you ain't never lived one day

In any reality but the one you make

Out of your busted dreams

And pools a blood

dyin ...... !

You ain't even

Tryin

To live

All you need

You tell me

HONEY

IS JUST YOUR KISS

AND MAYBE YOUR MONEY

( you know /// in case we have kids !)

Sometimes I think to be moseying on

But you ain't really here any way

And like any ghost yer bound to fade

Back to the fantasy from which you came

Dyin

( & I wanna live )

So

GOOD BYE KID !

/:/

But I'm still needin

A human being

And not just a puppet

Hangin from strings

> amid the ... uncomplaining slaves

^^

thru the bankrupted morality

Of our fornicating days

//

Eyes !

Sunken and depraved

Hearts !

( all ideals have been betrayed )

//

Lonliness

The finality of enforced isolation

//

love ??

( Broken and debased )

//

Meaningless  lives

Pretending a sense of liberation

Gather for a brief moment

Then part in shame

Truly letting each other down

•

Pain

The only legitimate emotion !

The solitary confinement of the weak

//

Lonely

The free man moves on

Thru the images of humanity

But alas

No one is here

...  that LOVE is the hardest thing to write about

//

This is true

ONLY IF

you have never felt love

//

But who wants to admit that !

//

So we ******* about love

In order to present the semblance

Of being alive and loving

AND THUSLY

HELLO POETRY

IS BORN

//

//

//

as

GRACE SLICK

( of JEFFREY ROBIN AIRPLANE )

Once sang

FEED YOUR HEAD
FEED YOUR HEAD !!

//

That is

FILL YOUR MIND ( AND HEART )

WITH REAL EXPERIENCE

AND BECOME FREE

•

•

this is still true

And truth is still waiting for you to appear

***

//

if you want to have the outer appearence

Of being ( or feeling )

" Intimate "

with someone

Have *** with them

But we all know

That this isn't real intimacy at all

••

But we like to pretend it is

Cause then we can avoid entering into

The responsibility of real intimacy

•

Also

The *** thing allows us

To write the phony poems

We all are becoming masters of

The

I LOVE YOU
I NEED YOU
I WANT YOU

crap

( written to the IMAGINARY YOU

WHO REALLY ISNT THERE )

and then we can at least pretend to be alive

//

We  now have an excuse for feeling useless

//

But

Excuse or not

We are still useless

•

Excuse or not

we are still miserably sub - human

from no one comes nothin

--

anyone home ?

little tender boy

•

Watch out !!

Here come some HP BABES !

//

Better take your ***** and run

Cause boy

That is ALL they see in you !!

Gentle the song floating thru

Everybody screaming

I WANT !        I WANT !

Softly lovers

In the shadows

Poisoned poetry

***** madness

Ain't so bad everybody dying

Oh

Have a nice day babe

Hope YE get laid

Then you can write a poem and tell me

All about your joyous *****

Oh Oh Oh

Oh well

How can it matter to me

When it don't seem to matter to you ?

In the lonely bar

There at the edge of town

Where the dreams come to die

And maybe a new one found

/:

Goin home

Though there ain't no home no more

But we're goin home

••

I seen you ...:

Are YE gonna try and make it alone (?)

::

hating the hater makes YOU a hater

YOU dumb *****

& I hate YOU for hating

BUT

hating YOU doesn't make ME a hater

Cause I'm writing the POEM

and

As YOU dumb ***** keep saying

" you can't criticize the poem !

You must be positive !

JEFFY is sensitive !

He's a poet ! "

••

So

As I do so poetically declare

MY HATE -// - IS LOVE !

MY HATE -//- IS TRUTH !

So

******* AND BOW DOWN !

Who loves me more than he loves you // as you surely must already have found out )

Oh
Oh
Oh

A gentle maiden come

Oh

She come

And hence a

GENTLE MAIDEN SONG

Is sung

O

///

Since the only acceptable response to a poem

Is praise

I might as well start out by just basking in the glory

Of my poetic prowess

//

Wow !

Feels good !

//

**** !

Why waste my time even writing the

**** thing ?

•

No one else seems to make any effort to be clear

But then

What difference does it make

Since quality has been deemed irrelevant

In our meaningless society

And our self - aggrandizing moral stupor !

•

The NEW WAVE poetry

Has become the

MAKE NO WAVES poetry

And we the poets

Of the

IGNORANCE IS BLISS

social order

//

Congratulations !

••

We have degraded poetry

And art

And love

And life itself

To preserve our egos

••

Feels great !

( less filling ! )

""

So

Thanks for the praise my fellow poets

With our actual real lack of support

For each other

Seeped in the pretensions of

Our phony insightfulness

I feel well equipped now

To live a life of imaginary happiness

And fake love

•

Thank you thank you

YOU'RE TRULY WELCOME

I used to think that love was the natural result

Of KNOWLEDGE

//

That by knowing somone you came to

UNDERSTAND that person

and that the common humanity between people

Would lead to compassion and to respect

\|\

as we are ****** beings

This natural KNOWLEDGE and UNDERSTANDING

Would also carry over into that aspect of life

( however more complicated it might be )

but that the potential conflicts would be

Lessened by the LOVE each person

Would naturally have for everyone else

/:/

BUT

THEN I STARTED READING THE POEMS

ON HELLO POETRY !

& now I know that

LOVE is when you

( basically )

"" commandeer "  another persons life

And make it an appendage of your own

By presenting a list of NEEDS that the other person

( called --- ironically --- the beloved )

Must fulfill (on demand )

Or else be condemned and emotionally violated

In public and thru poetry !

The ---- beloved --- is required

To have no other purpose in life

Than to fulfill the NEEDS of the

Self - proclaimed --- ---- lover

And to offer COMPLETE PROTECTION

against ANY sense of insecurity

That might ensue in the mind of the lover

////

BOY !

WHAT A THING TO KNOW !!!

:///:

( though -- I must confess --

I STILL --really don't believe this is what LOVE is )

//

I hear this muted voice in my head

Yearning to be heard !

WHAT IS IT SAYING ?

( like it is a response from the

Be-loved

To the

Lover )

:::

I hear it now !!!!

/:/

It is saying

YOU GOT TO BE KIDDING ME !!!

AND IF YOU THINK I AM GOING

TO " COMMANDEER"

Your life

In a vain attempt to

SAVE YOU ,,,, !!!!!

you are mistaken

//

Because love IS natural

Because it IS compassionate

All I can really say is

••

GROW UP !

DIS-ARM YOURSELF !

YOU ARE AS LOVED AS MUCH AS YOU CAN BE LOVED

WHICH IS  -- SIMPLY STATED --

YOU ARE LOVED AS MUCH AS YOU ACTUALLY LOVE

( WITHOUT THE FANFARE

OF YOUR POETIC ELABORATIONS )

There is a NOBILITY to human nature

to ask a person

DO YOU LOVE ME ?

Is very rude

and so we see all these poems

1/2 of them from someone who had found their

The funny part is how

Those with their

LOVERS -FOREVER

pretend not to know ( or care ) that soon their

LOVER - FOREVER

shall be inevitably gone

( as shown by all the BETRAYAL poems )

and also funny ( maybe --   Weird -- would

Be a better word )

is how the BETRAYED

in looking at the

LOVER - FOREVER  poems

Pretend that they cannot see

Just how phoney their FOREVER - LOVE must  have been

In the first place

And thusly how phoney must the  love be

Being so piously portrayed !!

I think the phenomenon is called

CO - DEPENDENCY

Madness
