they begin to add up
ailments multiplying
along with more serious
****** breakdowns

Hey but aging is a journey
not everyone gets to go on.

exploration, going in deep
finding questions unanswered
losing sight of the way back
breadcrumbs all eaten by mice
taking a punt on going North
discovering depths unheard of
feeling your way by fingertip
coming to restful understanding
acceptance of the great mystery.
Unfamiliar skies.
Every moment new and bright.
Home seems far away.

Release the knots of emotion
bound by cages,
walls that taunt the mind.
Express your frustration
bleed through the pen,
unheard & stunted feelings
leave them all behind.
My definition of poetry
unspoken Voice say nothing
as well
as unwritten Words

Deeds done unnoticed,
unheeded, are beheaded in quiet
Solitude

private Executions
in a Smokey courtyard, pulsing
with Electronica

It's a Plain world
and Fancy words don't do it justice

I rap Words ordinarily
Lisping the loop to synch
with a Caller:

Chattel, chatter, and chatting
under azure Seas thru black
Cables

I hear skin and touch tears

I lisp loops like a f*g
being Scratched on an 80's
Turntable
I wrote this poem in 2008. I was in Germany. I was almost 40 but not yet!
The derogatory slang for a gay man may trigger. It has been sanitized to f*g.
I hope you'll still be my friend. I hope you still trust my message.
I cried a lot
knowing that people are not people
Knowing that  person is not person
They are just vampire who drinks someday's dream!
