Blood-soaked blue sky
Smell our vinaigrette of helplessness
The honey crying chords of a zillion golden cubs

Roots that won’t die
Bursting through us
Dark crimson walls high
Too shame our innards

Tear-drenched rain
Draining our conscience
Pulling us toward the marble migraine
Where blinded gerents continue the measured deterrent

Of life desperate
Keeping hearts from heads
And minds from mouths

Away from this marble pavement
High up top, in cobwebs of restitched tapestry
Skeleton beast, less beastly in breathlessness...

A surge of sun spurged light in clustered cusps
Blows into this lecher
To carry our vividness
Like pappus in great gusts...

Hovering a black cloak
over you,
wearing a smile so
strained;—
That could make one
be lost
in the deep mist,
you wait in
silence.
In the depths
of your complex codes
lies the
unsolved mysteries and
the truths of
my past.
My worn eyes
can't reach you till
your name is recalled
from my lips stitched
together with
thick wires.
Will you
ever reveal
yourself?
Left in Confusion...
The door of a free thinking mind should never be shut,
You must be a open minded person like an open door itself,
Because the shut mind shuts the door on new thinking and new ideas in life itself.

So let others be like a postal person delivering letters to you,

Which these letters are new learning and new ideas to your minds mailbox itself.

So the door should never be fully shut in your mind itself.
Derrick Jason Smith - 8/4/2025
As we grow,
We mature.
Our ideas change,
So does our nature.
I don't want to instigate,
As much as I want to love now.
I used to want to rule an empire,
But now I'll settle for common things.
Settle down with my queen,
I'll last forever, if she lets me.

As we grow,
We lose touch.
Of each little thing we know,
Everything we loved so much.
I no longer feel aggression,
The same way I feel peace.
I may be tired,
But I'm just tuckered out,
I've learned to sleep.
Things change as we grow, I'll quote Echo here, "Thank God for digital cameras."

Roses are elegant ,
Bougainville are radiant ,
Sunflowers are shining ,
Jasmines are intensely white.

Roses smell floral,
Bougainville fragrant tropical,
Sunflowers are earthly,
Jasmine gives an exotic aroma.

They blooms in my mind,
They filled my cozy oasis,
Leaving behind blissful traces...

Childhood was complicated,
And the dirt was washed away and,
So many things made me frustrated,
Many things had me jaded,
shrouded in all this hatred,
Living here in the Matrix,
Not one decent person came into my life and made me sane,

There is no yoooooooouuu,
You just pretennnnnnnd,
Only got meeeeeeeee,
Your cycle ennnnnnnnds....

Beyond the stars,

I only wonder too,

So many wanders,

Universes too,

Beyond the stars,

See the world for what it really is,

Ultimate Rewards,

The gift of being aware,


I Dont know what ya' sayin' and they don't care what I'm sayin',

I dont know what ya' sayin' and they dont care what I'm sayin',

Behind this home, i have grown,

Above us all , Beyond the dome,

I Dont know what ya' sayin' and they don't care what I'm sayin',

I dont know what ya' sayin' and they dont care what I'm sayin',

Been all alone , even without a home,

Above you all , Beyond the dome,

Justice denied
for another mind of my kind.

It hurts so much to see
the abuse over time.

It's a burden we carry
against our will.

Our hurt is an expectation
we can never fulfill.

But overcoming our "shortcomings"
is what strengthens us.

Our obstacles
are our only path.

Our unique efforts,
the only way to success.

Effort is success.
And success is being free.
And freedom is just being
the kind we were born to be.
I'm struggling with seeing a younger Autistic person receive so much abuse and negativity from her family and her peers. She is constantly struck down and never built up. She is beautiful. She is determined. She is wise beyond her years. She is passionate. She is a warrior.

Jubal Cain trained his children,
his brother, Tubal, trained his, as well.

When stories grow in prehistorical shade,
all letters symbol references locked away,

when the little people in blue Phrygian caps,
acknowledge the big strong wombed Liberties,
wearing with honor the red Phrygian caps.

Freedom from all forms of mental tyranny, snaps
medically induced connection across synaptic gaps.

Who, who? We heard it,
on the radio.
Life in my time has been totally unique,
in time as a whole,
scientifically, we, even we two, just me
and you, agreeing,
as touching,

any thing, a thought, a thing? being used
to make you think, once more

what if, we do, and never tell?  
what if this is telling?
what if we knew?
The audience widens preceptual effectuality... even one in tune in time

Within the depths of our minds, clouds may form,
Blocking the sun, causing a mental storm.
But remember, dear soul, after every storm,
A rainbow appears, bringing colors warm.

Through the darkness and the rain,
We find strength to ease the pain.
The clouds may linger, but they will pass,
Leaving behind a rainbow at last.

So hold on tight through the cloudy days,
For the rainbow shines in mysterious ways.
Mental health is a journey, not a race,
Embrace the storms, for they will be replaced..
