Chin up, look straight.
A battle of wits account the physicality of it all,
Though the cycle holds one accountable
Balance keeps me afloat.
That I may fall,
Flat on my face
And it’ll be ok
I’ll be fine—trust me.  
Because equilibrium’s non-static state,
ends sooner—Rather than later.
What’s Balance but a second before falling?
What’s Balance, but a second before needing more Balance..
balance = happiness

She walks fast and breaths slow,
A fiddle player missing her index
She runs now, she was always running..

A side of a truth—her only ally

Her ***** were burnt blue
with the Greek fire that tingles further with saliva.
But not hers they said, for she was stained
****** to purification through pain.

Her pain was sheer existence.
Every breath hurting more and hurting less
Continual life leading to death.
She is the morality of lust,
the end of a beginning..

What I am means not the who,
For who I am transcends the what in that the I,
Ohh the I,
Means a lot of nothing..
For what is confidence without ambition?
Pride lacking reason,
a combination of halves ignorant of the whole
Blind whales swimming in circles
An endless abyss of the seventh sea
The playing field of unfamiliarity

For whom does a flightless bird share secrets with?
A used gum, hardened and black
The unfiltered truth of my being..

Peace through War
Slavery with Freedom,
where Strength is measured by Ignorance.

The kneel imposes blindness,
the breathlessness of the witness.
So puncture the lung,
a symptom of Clarity.
Appease the stone,
a display of Vanity.

The static unyielding faith,
a sign of absent sanity.

So—repress in prayer,
rather address in self.

Its designed to deliver,
engineered to inspire.
Being powered by the energy of a coiled spring
and kept in motion by a complex
self-winding system,
relying on the natural movements of one's self.
It's rubbing elbows with rebels and royalty.
Introducing *** to Cola,
and creating a bathtub diver,
a daytime sleeper,
an organized mess.
Seems my shadow has kept busy.
It's my wild walkman,
my *electric pickle.
and yes..its about my ______
