this is a day of
high clouds

my mind
roams up to
where they are
in the upper stratosphere
cold christaline skies
a bowl over
the marbled earth

the sky cracked open
revealing the
ionosphere
black as a
stone egg

where stars waited
to be

birthed

I hate how you broke me down
Only to build me up
Just so you could break me down once again

I hate how you convinced me to open up to you when I was shy
Only to give you what you wanted from me
And then tell me to be ashamed for being so exposed

I hate how you would ask me what’s wrong
Only to pretend to listen as I would cry
And then tell me off for thinking I have it harder than others

I hate how you would tell me you loved me
Only for me to find out that you have another lover
And then to get angry with me when I would try to move on

I hate how I wasted my time loving you unconditionally
In hopes that you would love me too
Only to realize after eight months that you don’t deserve me

Stop announcing where you are going
Or what you are doing

I don't f** care
I am 30 years old

You never worked
Just sat at home for 30 years

Harsh
I want to wake you up with kisses between your legs

and taste the dreams you've had of us,

and turn them from a lustful fantasy

to a heart-pounding reality.
like Matt says

WW3 is on its way

///

see / if you are just a kid

you may not understand what it's all about

But

Those that do are stressing on it

And you are around them all the time

"""""""

Your teachers
Your parents

Your neighbors
Etc

The older you are the clearer you see it
The more deeply you feel the stress
and know what it is

And if you are a kid you feel ( and completely so )
Everybody else's stress but you think it's origins

Is inside yourself ........

and hence ......... The depressions

The sense of unworthiness
The lovelessness
Etc

//

Now
To explain myself a bit

I am 70 years old

Kinda isolated

//

I talk to the elders ( so to speak )

They are very busy !

The 40-50 year olds are still saying
It's just a political thing

But by their stress we know they know better

//

I try to talk to them

But they get agitated quite easily

( which is how you can know they know )

///

kids do what you kids out there do

So there's no need to describe it



All I've been trying so say to you -- is

Please stop hurting yourselves

& that the forces that are driving you

Are not your own but our horrors

And that it seems that the combining

*** with love

Is kinda messing up your heads

And

That both are sacred

But they are not the same thing



Love is more universal and only if you start

By each one really loving all of the rest

As a natural phenomena

( in fact -- a natural Right )

As a prelude to the " pairing up " business

Can you survive



( happiness ?

we can talk of THAT later ! )

//

So

if I have seemed harsh or seem harsh or seem harsh

In the future

It's not from lack of love

///

Matt says

Sept 2015 !

THE COLLAPSE OF AMERICA !

The people I still talk to say the same

/:/

I don't say this to stress you out

But the stress levels and the public evasiveness

Will intensify drastically in the months ahead

"""""

So like I said

IT IS REALLY THE TIME TO LOOK COMPLETELY

TOWARD YOUR INNER STRENGTH

TO LOOK TOWARDS EACH OTHER

AND TO NOT SEEK SALVATION IN FANTASY
