cyber forces glitching,

itching,

scratching,

hatching,

inside… inside…

further deeper,

latching,

onto body…

onto body…

mind,

soul,

body…

cyber forces becoming

transferring,

creating,

hating

the old,

the old.

new cybernetic soul

born modern,

born modern,

progressive process,

tradition’s torn,

torn.

Unearthly weightlessness,

Bunched abandon,

Carelessly clustered,

As if ‘He’ planned them

To cause star-struck wonder;

Defying ‘DIY’ laws

Cautiously cradling,

The nature of wars-

The whispy familiars

Of sunset clouds

Feed vitamin horizons

To unaware crowds.

Jump and glide across moon-still open waters,
Pass with ease through mind-made vacuous quarters,
Electrocute the most unexpecting still seas,
Ignore all pre-learned rules, erase all sensibilities.
Do not cease to migrate from thought
Unless your life is lost, forever stretched, forever taut,
Dance together, forever floating higher,
Drive you like a sober high from which you never tire.

Flourishing and frivolous wisps
Dance in the spotlight
Over your right shoulder.
I wonder where the dust's going,
Where it's already been?
Whether it's just because you're getting older?
Sparkling and seducing eyes,
Telling their very own story.
To where I lock my gaze,
I think things like these
Should sometimes last forever,
I guess that would be a lost,
Stagnanted,
Epiphanerial haze.

The wind, it calls, through foggy day
T o dazzle dust and drive dirt away.
But some of these darkened vertex
Hide the stories and forever perplex
The strengths of tested 'feel-good' fables,
Denouncing sciences' empirical labels:
Too thin, too fat, too short, too tall,
Too hairy, too bald, too square, too like a ball,
Too strong, too weak, too open to lies,
To encompassing of stories of the skies.
Too angry, too meek, too full of passion,
So give us pills!  It's the latest fashion!
Dose us up on your chemical compounds,
Stop us from disclosing rebellious sounds
Which remind us that not all we know,
Are these soul-******* television shows:
Nip-Tuck, What NOT to Wear, Big ******* Brother,
This is the modern day 'Watch With Mother',
Feeding false standards, 'Bieber-fied' norms,
Sapping energy, becoming a nation of vacant gorms.
So Yes! Hide your kids, hide your wife,
Open your own doors, live your own life,
Because this **** ain't going nowhere,
And even without a deity, a higher force is watching, somewhere.

Lemon and Ginger
Floating on water,
Succulent,
Slowly, diffusing
Then
Slushing into
Wide mouth;
Soothing,
Burning pain,
Smoked.
Nourishing, bare
Throaty flesh,
As repetition comes:
****, after ****.

Ideas drifting fast between the empty vacuum
That is my mind - as eyes droop heavy,
With vivid images of mud melting
From the sky.

Blood rushes through passages
That is my body - as heart flickers,
With heavy dispute of intoxication
From this lie.

Words tumbling from unexplored cracks
That are within - as mind opens,
With confused conclusion of whether
To laugh or cry.
