Look at the pond
You & I
Paddling together
Beneath the sky.
Within the ripples
With a watery sigh
Let go of the burden
Let it lie.

Connection
Interconnection !
Relation
Possible
Probability

*** & soul ~Pleasure & plain

Love & Loss ~Fire & coal

Susurration & screams ~Night & dawn

Truth & lies ~Here & gone

~~

I could resist
I could!
Oh surely
I swear I could.

I need no anesthesia
No Anesthesia or numbness
Darling~
Please

Come over me!
My Dr. Sweet Anggie please
I implore you!
Take your razor-edged scalpel
Only you!
Make a safe incision.
With your soft warm hand
Wrench my heart away from me!
Detach my pumper & leave me whole.
Undo my pumper with my brain
So I may cease this non-physical war!

Let the blood flow torrentially & free,
Like lunatic waters in breaking dams & rivers.
I care not!
I want it nevermore.

Take it it’s yours!

I want it nevermore.
Take it it’s yours.

How strange
How strange
How strange !?

How strange is that?

When you're missing

"the stranger" ?

How strange is that?

For Humans

What is most perilous
& chaotic?
Is it the ghosts? The viruses?
?                 ?
  ?             ?
    ?         ?
      ?     ?
         ?
No
It is the self.

~~
The Self.
The Brain.
A hidden sage
a wrecking ball
a firestorm in silence.
~
No alien force
could match
the tiny brain
the mighty peril of the human.

The lemon
Not sour & acidic
But sweet & delicious.
Lemon
All I want is "the lemon"
For my every life.
Not ballin’, not wealth,
Not power
Just the lemon
Golden & wild.
Nor wisdom!
I’d rather go blind
Rather go dumb
Just to taste a lemon light.
Beautiful & sweet lemon.
Lemon.

Magical smog & fumes
beckoned me inside
the boulevard of palaces.

Tremulously,
the chandelier falls on me.
I wake up
&
grab my bottle of whiskey
&
look around!

The scent of
high neuroticism
&
low openness
stinks harder in the people.

Reality is repellent.
Dreams are seductive
even as I was dying.
