Hello,
I'm dreaming of stars.
Of love, of money, and fantastic cars.
Of artistic creation, the fame, and success.
Of hope, of longing, and beautiful ***.

I'm scared of the future and staying up late.
I've wrapped it all up just to dream it away.
I feel terribly bad but I cant stop the bleeding,
My dream-clotted heart just might keep beating.

But its keeping me down 'cause I'm failing, you see.
I think it might be such an awful disease.
I think I'll combust of this crippling confusion.
I think I might lust for some perfect delusion.

...

I think this has gone on for too long.
I can't find a job 'cause I long for a song.
I can't stop feeling nostalgic, although.
I dream of a house, of my little home.

Just enough to keep on moving forward.
Just enough to live 'til I'm older,
Without too much trouble and enough for my kids.
I dream that maybe I'll finally get rid,
Of the dreaming that's been holding me back for so long,
The one that's made it so terribly hard.

Man-made phenomena
litters the sky,
these satellites orbit themselves
--celestial magnets
befriending the galaxy.

Eccentric hours of
the day and night
lend themselves to the after party,
where the girls run in spirals,
the boys just taper off,
it’s a strange side effect
to all the confection and confetti
--an interstellar jackpot
with all the quirks!

There’s no moon out of reach
to bury one’s flag in to
or hang a quote from,
no riddle wisenheimers can't
complacently decipher.

As missions go this is prime
and far too lucrative
when the star machine
starts throwing back from
the electronic heavens,
shooting them off
in such bizarre bans
of incensed fire,
a sure reflection of fireworks
against the artificial currents
of this drug.

There’s no catching
these shooting stars
lightyears from here,
but if you ask nice,
they just might send you a selfie
the next time
your trajectories coincide.
Inspired by the surreal art of Justin Peters.

"then you will see roses aside"
A ROSE IS A Rose is a ROSE is a ROSE
Jenish Feb 2020
Sun scatters splendid splendors in utter silence
Flowers shed their pure fragrance without any aim
Never once they never trumpet their excellence
Real wisdom, real merits acquires great fame

The moon maps her magic hue in silent midnight
Wind swept in melodious tone scenting surprise
Ever did they ever boost their mettlesome might?
Never fool can ever shine bruiting his own praise.

Are you
Ready for the hall of fame
Are you
Ready for the beauty & the pain
I have become death
Destroyer of worlds
Watch as my acts cause
The devil to go la la land in the moonlight
It would take a academy from the highest canopy to stop my villainy
So no mortal is killing me
What’s reality?
When all I am are fallacies on streams
Made up scenes that foster young dreams to be part of a bad boys piston team then join Tristan on a woods exhibition
Clout is your only mission

I have become death
Destroyer of worlds
So many incisions even more pain
But at least beautiful is your name
Until the coroner labels you Jane doe
Those injections got you into sections but your just another selection amongst a sea others that needed better directions
Too late since in point four miles
The only light you will have will be your ten thousand dollar smile, so girl go wild as least for a while

I have become death
Destroyer of worlds
With one finger I put lives in danger
Comments pierce through like lines in Othello, over some boy that said his favorite color was yellow
Or the young black girl that feels she second best when post say white women make black men stress less
Share more imagery that misinforms the masses continuously that lead to increased suicidal tendencies, even when you go political what they say is criminal

I have become death
Destroyer of worlds
I’m a product of human ingenuity
A creation that has no immunity
So I go viral and spread without hesitation
Taking over nations Genghis Khan
with so many cons, it’s should feel familiar like the wrath of khan
I wasn’t always maniacal made to be viable now I’m connected to your pulse
More than vitals
So while you strive to become an American idol, arrive at the realization
That your just playing Simon says for
Nothing that comes with you when your dead

I have become death
Destroyer of worlds

Always being flirted with
While others never get noticed
Standing out in densely gathered crowds
The highs were way above and beyond
Even the mightiest and highest of the clouds
The shine would never ever leave
My newly found and now world famous face
But, it takes lots of **** hard work
If wanting to stay in Hollywood’s first place
Never liked to be the runner up
Only ever winning, at any sort of race
Paparazzi snapping, tabloids exaggerating
For what’s its actually worth
One more bit of bad gossip mongering
They could bring anyone, back down to earth.
