Life is smarter than **** Sapiens.
I bet.
All in, autotelic influency swirly moves, turmoil

shaking up the royal authorities holding title deed,

granted by God, they all swear, by law, God makes kings,
using priestly authority passed on since Peter, most assuredly.

Middle minds, ones on no one's side, unbiased, unbent, just
good for goodness sakes, granted grace
to bet right work's sake artfully
aspires to spiritually weighted
familiarity, inspiring
sleight smiles.

Attention concentration, centering
formerly completely incoherent points

right where your most valuable focus
aims assisting imaginary morality

x change from gold apples
in silver settings,
for fitly spoken
words… re, re means do over, right,
rethink re-al re-adjured

"to put (someone) to an oath,"
from ad "to" + iurare "swear,"

init run… nutec new tech old ideas
classic
kings and priest responsibilities,

NPCs at the
edge o'they Barco Loungers,
pre thinking the turns in the car chase,

believing that Mustang did that landing,
boy o boy, gotta wanna have that power,
best Ford ever, until those 68 Torinos
428 Cobra Jet V-8s, those were no ponys,

those were stallions, and I put a hole in one,
just was not looking, on a run to the hospital,

with Plastic Nancy, who came with Brian, who
lived in Flushing and knew Bill Levy with me, we

who went on to grand adventures against evil, we
defeated, laughing
to our selves, Arthur Lee wrote the score,
Love,
it was adventure,
of the highest sort,
out of conscience calmly settled,
at life's edge, Life's Stigian Phrygian shore,

south of Bullhead, east of Needles, Arizona side
of Riverbend, where it all went south, that was 1966,

unrelated to all of this,
this is b-roll… just in case,

never can tells just so happen, to be so easily told.

To have and to hold as if the one holds the other,
it could just be, we got old, and we remembered how.


It was likely all thought out,
ahead of time, before we thought, we ought to plan
on living to the end, until we think we must be dead,
to be ready
and, having planned so far ahead,
we had these extra days added on, by chance,
once, we died, near a team of trained resurrectors,

lo', imagine me, Socrates, looking Plato in the eye,
and laughing, so we classically consider, from a noble,

never slave race, as were the Pharisees, or so they said,
reportedly, we are seed of Abraham, never were we slaves,

as a whole, no doubt, the whole enterprise, the spoken vows,
the solemn oathes, the claiming of redeemer's right, mine,

my shoes are off
to the games designer, the shame is ingenius,
my greeting, Phi, del, I test, Phidelitus, first token
of our cognition,

see, high holy richer than Midas, maker
of fissionable material
actively radiating a future
with energy for every little thing you do,
Love it
and Leave it, American's, citizens born,
to mediate metamorphosis,

who's using your liberty to conserve whose fortune?
Lucky me, cashing in all the unredeemed time spent
touring the M&M stores at all Disney destination ports.

]]Album in the back ground, Love, Forever Changes [[
Music and lyrics by Arthur Lee.
A call and a raise,  one reader in seven days, that's enough...
I hide in words — tucking under their shade;
Dressing letters up with sequins and baubles.
Now showering in limelit obfuscation.
Makes it seem as if I am really there:

Dressing letters up with sequins and baubles
Blinding myself in the flashing of their colours;
Makes it seem as if I am really there
Amidst flowered touchless abstraction.

I blind myself in the flashing of their colours.
Submerged in repetition, my thumb drowns
Amidst flowered touchless abstraction,
Swirling in whirlpool ******* me underneath:

Submerged in repetition, my thumb drowns
Now showering in limelit obfuscation,
Swirling in whirlpool ******* me underneath.
I hide in words — tucking under their shade.
If i could weave the words of love for you on a fabric, the unending stitching of your name will be fluent in the language of my heart's rose is lighted with the devotion of your glance that is ablaze, touch me closer now, oh brooding one of the night, for I am your moon with the healing light.
It was always the words I said.
It was never the way I said them—

never the way I screamed,
never the way I whispered,
never the way I spoke with eloquence,
sweetness, kindness, or grace.

It was never the way I spoke with wisdom,
or the way I spoke with knowledge.
Never the way I spoke as a woman,
or the way I spoke as a friend.

It was never the way I spoke
with tears in my eyes,
or with a clenched fist.

It was always the words I said—
the words you didn’t want to hear,
the words you refused to hear,
the words you refused to listen to.

Words that would have made you care,
that would have forced you to act,
that would have demanded you
to sacrifice something.

It was never how I said them
that turned you away from me.

It was always the words themselves—
that you refused to believe.
My wrist is getting heavy
How long now have I sat here staring?

I was supposed to be reading
And I'm sure to an outsider that's how it must have seemed

Instead,
the open pages were sunbathing
My right pointer holding one as if to turn it

For, possibly, the past hour

Frozen, but time wasn't

And I had wasted some

Something had triggered something
And just like that
My mind was gone

The rays were burning words
Just like words can burn a heart

It surely wasn't the author's fault
It's been happening to me quite a lot

For, possibly, the past thirty years
Eu te quero, wouldn't cut it.
Então, eu preciso de você, tried to.
Mas tudo o que eu conseguia fazer era desejar sua existência.
Eu te quero com toda a minha sede
Eu te desejo loucamente
Não quero pegar leve esta noite.
Quero você de joelhos, olhos brilhantes, boca cheia.
Quero você engasgando com cada centímetro até seus lábios incharem e seus pensamentos desaparecerem.
Espere só.
Mantenha seus óculos.
E então eu vou te dobrar e fazer você esquecer como falar.
Chega de Google Tradutor
Quero te deixar meu coracao para tudo tempo de meu vida.

A hi buleni.
É a nossa língua, então vamos conversar.
Talvez você queira falar em Changana.
******* WORDS,
A BUNCH OF ******* WORDS
THAT’S ALL I HAVE LEFT,
A BUNCH OF ******* WORDS

WRITE, ******* WRITE, WRITE,
WRITE SOME ******* WORDS
WRITE, WRITE, WRITE MY ******* WORDS

******* WORDS,
THEY’RE JUST ******* WORDS
WHY EVEN ******* BOTHER
THEY’RE JUST ******* WORDS

******* WORDS IN MY HEAD
******* WORDS ON MY PAGE
******* WORDS,
THEY’RE ONLY ******* WORDS
I guess I was mad at the paper.
Now, What are
these F*S gonna do today???
they always got
something not pleasant to say!!!
they are just
wanting things to go their way,
as always, it's
gonna be a sloppy day,

Now, I gotta deal
with these circus clowns,
a lot of them, I wished
were never around,
some are just loud, and
some are obnoxious,
they are working
my nerves, and are just Atrocious!!

I am just here trying to do my work,
gotta massive migraine, and
my head really hurts,
I am trying to stay calm,
someone might get punched,
OH NO, NOT AGAIN,
WHO DONE STOLED MY LUNCH??

all I want to do is get
through this SHIFT,
I AM TRYING SO HARD NOT TO
DROP IT, and QUIT,
IT'S GOT 401(k), and GREAT BENEFITS,
SO, DON'T GIVE UP NOW,
because,
YOU CAN DO IT!!!

some co-workers, I think
are really cool, and
others I think are nothing but fools,
but that's alright, I willbe okay,
It's just sometimes, I be having bad days,

Some days are bad, and
some days are good,
some days, I wish
that a IMBECILE WOULD!!!

Now, the SHIFT IS OVER,
What more could I say,
just trying to make it clear:
IT IS NEVER A GOOD DAY!!!!

Is this you are reading into this???
Whispers in my mind, voices in my head
Scattered thoughts turned to scratches of lead
What does it mean? What has it said?
It's nothing but words cold and dead
Scatters of verse tangles of meaning
Only time will tell what these thoughts are gleaning
Will the words I write do their part
To slowly heal my shattered heart
Ink flows on the page
Whispers of stories so bold
Time held in each line
Revealing past deeds untold
Words act as a guage
Of our thoughts, from young to old
Baring through the age
When gazing on words untold
By turning each page
Growth of ideas unfold
Structured as a 5:7:5 haiku, but I tried to make it rhyme.
