White, the lightning
burns and blinding
nothing heard but cries
of regretful souls
longing to go back in time
just to undo each and every crime
painfully, they howl
as they try to crawl
out of the underworld

Red, the flesh
of sinful sinners
when they clash
onto each other
and many wished,
can only wish,
to live again
but there is no bargain
in this world of pain

Black, the days
the burning frames
the rotten wraiths
No signs of mercy
for those with no faith
Longing for tomorrow
where there'll be no sorrow
but this is the inferno
the place of eternal woe

I wonder how the people writing all the colorful words look from the inside.

Where raindrops crash so quietly
Speaking soft with subtle sounds aloud
And in a language to be seen around
Like moving hands their white ripples fade
Out into conversations crowned with mist
The kind of sweeping breath alive
Which breaths itself out atop the waters edge
Just as words once hung on the morning dew
Now they wake with joy and are gone the next
As a calming way on this crustless wave
The waters return beneath and rest

i want to be white because i'm black
i want to be black because i'm white
i want to wake up like you did last night:










without wants
Today is a good day.

How can it be a white Christmas,
when my feelings is blue,
And my eyes,
all red from the crying;
the room emits sombre greyness
just because you're not here ,
to tell me how pure today is
Merry (?) Christmas

"i don't want to rule or conquer anyone;
  i should like to help everyone if possible —
  jew, gentile, black man, white
  we all want to help one another;
  human beings are like that."

charlie chaplin wrote these words for
"the great dictator" a political satire  
the nazis didn't want to hear anymore
but the dictator's speech went viral

in a wehrmacht's cinema, partisans of tito
made fun of ****** and exchanged
a propaganda-film for chaplin's video
an audience of nazis raged

a flash of fun in a "*****" led by
insane murderers on stimulants

*

mr. chaplin i do thank you for
your outcry emerging from
human tragedy.

good bye...

R.I.P. Charles Spencer Chaplin
✞ December 25th 1977

God bless you.
Today is a good day.

Per quanto ancora vedrai
il colore dei fiori, rigoglioso?
E il loro profumo, con questa brezza,
quanto spazio avrà percorso?
Che segno lasceranno i lor fusti
a chi li calpesterà?
Può un serpente
mordere persino il sole?

È qualcosa che capisco,
e che continuamente dimentico,
come un foglio che sbiadisce,
e che ogni tanto ricopio.

Come un cuore che soffre,
su ciò che è già andato,
che si rialza e rinasce,
con il petto rinvigorito.

Mi chiedo che sia l'immenso,
Un foglio bianco sporco,
Pieno di figure, di colori,
Un emozione dal nulla.
Mi chiedo se sai qualcosa di me,
Ora che non si scorge;
Anche l'immenso, ne son certo,
Procede verso il cambiamento.
Old poem, changed it a bit, I think it was unfair for it to stay hidden in my computer :)

i’ve lost enjoyment in what i used to love.

books left unread,
dust beginning to move in.

tv turned on,
my mind somewhere else.

video game systems untouched,
npcs wondering where their savior has gone.

guitars and piano sitting alone,
my fingers instead tapping on a phone.

I drag his
lungs
into a
loose blackness.
い い い い
They crumple
at the margins
as I bloat them
full of dust.
い い い い
I wash water on them
so that they
settle
like ink.
い い い い
His lungs can
breathe
on my paper,
unbroken.
