You are a mystery

I have fathomed
And know

You glide in black
The walking darkness
A moonless night

The stars I see
Are my universe
And they look with love

Their warmth touches
And a stretched hand
Offers something
Immortal

You

Golden soul
Opaque in velvet

The invisible obvious

Pious perfection

Glide in black

this is a not poem
not very practical or profound
just more of an
observance on love , nowadays

how we get online to
search for a mate and don't
ever meet or
say hello , but maybe on a telephone

and get swept into love right away
with no sense for touch
or how they
may squeeze the toothpaste

when the new internet love
asks if you like her
or him , you go around blocking
the last one you flirted with

cleaning tracks, of your internet pecker
drops from the wetness between
your legs, then
realize again, this new thing is just

the same, all the miles separate you,
just like the door does
from real touch

Life descends,
not in thunder storms
or lashing rains
of passion

but in gentle drizzle
of bliss and purity.

2:30am, felt the hollows hands of death again.
Fingers wrapped like a noose around my neck.
Woke up distress in sweat.
With tongue tied knots made of fear and frustrating attempts.
I called out to mother but
I felt 1,000 pounds of pressure standing upon my chest.
Muting me into speech impediments and sinking me into the depths of what seem to feel like hell for a couple minutes.
Body felt like dancing sharp needles in the air.
As someone's eerie finger
Sailed across the maps of my skin.
Causing frantic earthquakes through out what seemed like my living corpse.
I felt like discords, statics, and lost signal tv channels.

The tired


Ole man     (he is  a good man )



But


He can't                ( no he can't )

Take it no more


)(



Why do we think there's a place to hide ?


)(

)(


He


( The ole man )


Is tired


No ! No ! No !


He can't take it no more


.
Just stay true to your roots.
Branches grow, deceiving you.
They burn,
They shed,
They fall,
But you grow.
Stronger each year.
Maneuvering obstacles.
Conquering what you believe in.
Yourself.
