I'm a dreamer
I don't want to be with someone
who would dream with me
Instead
I want him to take me to reality

There was sweat on my brow,
beads of them as I approached her.

I was a young man, still green.

She was a mature woman
like the long blades grow free
in the lush of nature.

My hand in hers
she took me
into her warmth.

Nervous, shy
you could hear
grass grow

in the quiet
of my fear

in the silence
of my lust.

I knew nothing.

As we rolled in the dew of ***
as I fumbled and groped,
I
in some instinctive wisdom
entrusted myself fully to her.
Flatterer (n).

Bits of silver whispered
from a well-polished tongue;

a certain flexing of fondness
She rose through adversity
And made a name for herself
Broke through barriers
And received valuable help
With more confidence
She is able to lift her voice
No one will ever stop her
She is able to stand and rejoice
I am the sear of steam
I am the blackness of the pit
I am the killer of mothers
I am a dull razor
I am a red dirt nightmare
I am an unyielding cruel desert
I am a black and white, dead fire
I am one of many hated
I am the naked winter branch
I am the teeth of the serpent
I am the dry and desolate plains
I am the bile bitter phlem, you spit out
~~~~~~~~
You will hate me
In the flicker of an eyelid
You hate me
As the hail pounds everything
back into he dust.
five steps forward nine steps back
sideways motion
moving
direction other
not as planned
but four is lucky

universe multi
many theory
twelve is the divided tribe
plural perhaps
light years away
same distance from the sun

gobekli tepe
smart find recent
dumb place
buried from sight
Baalbek mystery
stronger than ants

relationship status
complicated
unknown
single
attached
to me

thoughts many
wrinkles a-plenty
convoluted memories
two minds
intermingled in thoughts
hearts divided

thinking deeply
shallow breathing
thoughts very distant
looked very close at
remembered seeing
brain in a jar

brain in jar
house of glass
lonely life
mind meld memories
with brain in jar
any thoughts
The only positive direction is up. Twelve tribes were scattered throughout the universe. The multi-verse. 235 genes, found only in human DNA. Children of the stars. 24 point nine hours in near space.
No matter how  
Much I rhyme
I will never be a poet
Concrete Angel
or Bring Me To Life
But I still write  
For maybe the truth is change
