Do you still remember the fuzzy nights And the adventures? The venture into the mountain town of freedom Like free birds or experimental hermits, The dawn of the morning was so beautiful The night was colder yet sufferable I know my heart is still there Filled with alcohol and **** Every need sustained, bills unpaid, people ignorant to all their problems People ignorant to death's impending doom People ignorant that their hearts will remember the small things The small talks The discreet gazing The pure air The warm breath designing abstract art in the air Cigarettes and melodies All the dance and the trance from the bar's lights A true bohemian rhapsody for the soul A resting place for my mind as I try to find More reasons to keep trying

bohemian woman
Laissez-faire and free, Nothing bothers me in Bohemian living. Fruit fresh plucked, On the grass with the bees Relaxing and eating. Read a play, finish a novel See what's up with sister See what's up with father Laissez-faire and free, Why are you so worried That I'm not worrying?

Mexicali Blues
I ripped out of the old tavern Into the torn indigo overcoat And traveled under the porticoes of a billion fantastic stars To celebrate this marvelous November night. In the labyrinth of bricks and stones I hum and whistle the Irish song Like a singer before the orchestra, my multitudes. How exquisite—Avec un plaisir de génie—is my peripatetic existence! Lungs full of air, and I see the Muse in me. My treasured newsboy cap from a thrift shop spins on my hand, And my feet bubbles off the floor like soda pops. I pray my gratitude to the one above the altar For my indomitable freedom. Amen. A pocket change rolling, bikes uninhabited, and lampposts perpetual. A rolled cigarette wantonly leaned between my sticky lips. Autumnal dews wetted my forehead like spiriting wine. And while, scarf blowing, boots tattered, I raised my odalisque eyes heavenward The world pixelated above my moist eyes Like a seabed of jewelry stars

Under the Porticoes
Growing up unguided and penniless Torturous upbringing pushing me down A handgun, speculating and rash Gluttony attempts to smother my eyes Wearing the condemnation of men Appropriating the virtues of girls Feasting in the winds of a fandango Weakening under the need for support Emblazoned under the influence of white powder nights Ceilings lights spinning out of control Locked up and discover the stars in strife Sweet seclusion with a Beelzebub for company Crawling through the gutters on all fours to get out Black and white key arias connected Caressing coloraturia platitudes on fire Busting a gut on the walkway to truth Peaceful vigilance a bismillah fraternity Deserted, drowning in civilisation Tanked, yanked and naked Is this Mama Mia    Standing on two feet Rebuked, not loved Rebellion, unshackled Revelations, so, not want to die Reciting bohemian poetry before the bullet strikes high                                                                        Scaramouche....

Scaramouche, standing on two feet
There are those who live out their days dangerously and walk along a knifes edge in search of electricity. They abandon known reason within decisions for their inner vision is addicted to ambition. If they find their soul is far from fully grown they’ll bravely set out upon that road alone and mystify cemented minds with the gravity of their finds. These are the ones who will change our ageing-ancient ways with a saviours grace unlike those who are growing within their graves.

The bohemian gladiators of the mind
It could easily be that you will also be like this: you will be expelled, a bohemian-cheerleader, a ***** of cafes, a bed of potato bags and tombstones listening in their hermitage! Disappointed with a frustrated being-writhing, - your faith stops as a balloon jacket crumpled in the door of small civic salons! "You couldn't be smarter than knowing they were ****** here." The play of the great scams was certainly about you - your free verses, labeled unsaleable, were densely ground by human, forgetful, tyrannical reason. In the shadow-friendly dungeon of coffee table tables, there is hardly a friend who is really interested in who can help you. Welded prejudices surround you, set fire to you, and smoke - You know: Almost nothing has become easier, more satisfied, and happier with a decent civic occupation! Your childish soul, who is eagerly demanding in the bloodthirsty swords of critics of sleepless wrestling: You could easily walk like a bohemian cavalier cursed as a ghost, like a cheap conscience beheading itself on the shores of Kharon’s barge: a shivering country of the dead, a peaked-backed Tantalos-fearer will not accept! Do paper baskets calculate your quantity yields instead of competent members? Did blind luck alone win or squander? Human morality has long since departed from you! A dubious, fair-boy, comedian-like boy who emerges among the temporary sons-in-law struggles on dubious jancsis! - Robot minutes baptized with eternity moving on a chain: Working to the point of a nail is futile, for the wages of starvation: When can you enjoy the fallen early and rotten treasures of Being? The mountains that testify will call you: The message of eternal Immortality is only One: To stand as an unshakable rock, as a last bastion, in a season of valiant, man-trying needs.

Where's the hug I've needed in the hard moments? Only verses embrace my mental instability. I would wish some super escape ability, But I've lost even the power to wish... No hope for the Bohemian... What meaning does this phrase hold? My lone madness has finally driven me mad, Every line is sad, mad, bad that ever I had had, "had". Ambiguous doubts assure my hopeless future goals. Every step of mine has fallen in pity pit-holes, But a writer easily accepts what is written... What is waiting for the Bohemian?

Doubtful Bohemian
A boho hemmed into a perfect circle Misunderstood and invisible Where everyone goes right, he prefers left The is told he is bereft They force him to fit in But how can he? He is like oil in water, a hippie in suit quarters His free spirit just won's blend in They hammered and bent him to belong But turns out he has been a misfit all along For his spirit demands to be vivid and vibrant In a rather monochrome circle, it is a tyrant His heavy heart needs to let it all out His thoughts, his dreams and all his doubts His is a white noise, he seems very far out Everyone is deaf to this boho's screams and shouts

MISFIT
Gypsy sits under the twinkling starlight, of a fierce love she sings into the night, but never a lover is in sight. Will you be her lover? Gypsy fades to a gentle slumber. Will her dreams be light or thunder? Will they dwell on life's duress or a lover's sweet caress? Will you be her lover? Gypsy can freeze you, put you on ice or she can take you to paradise. Do not forget to hold on tight or into the abyss you will slip at twilight. Will you be her lover? Gypsy stirs in the morning light, her dreams are gone like mist in sunlight. Did you read the message in her eyes? She will be waiting in the night. Will you be her lover? ALesiach © 09/19/2014

Will You Be Her Lover?
_If you're looking for a reason not to **** yourself tonight, this can be it._ Sometimes, we feel as if nothing matters. We all do. So i made a list of a few of my own reasons, 13 Reasons Why I'm still alive. And hopefully you'll change your mind. Those moments you feel happy, and nothing but lucky. And you wish nothing will ever change. I will try my best. _Reason 3. Bohemian Rhapsody._ Again, A weird title. It's partly true though. You can see it in two ways, Music and a wave of different feelings and emotions. Music can change lives they say, but could it also destroy them? Take Bohemian Rhapsody. In a way it sounds like how our mind works. So many different parts, emotions, feelings, memories, and yet changing so fast. It's beautiful, Just like humans. So brittle and so fragile. Music can indeed change a person, but what if it happens in a bad way? In Bohemian Rhapsody they use the words we could never use to describe how we feel, like " I don't wanna die, but sometimes wish i'd never been born at all. " In any song really, but Bohemian Rhapsody does just something to me. Your song will probably be something else, something that describes how you feel so perfectly that you can drown in their words. Like a poem. Again hard to explain, but I hope you understand.

Part 3, Bohemian Rhapsody.
After heartbreaking realization. A loss of life, a loss of another path. Destiny crumbles. As it shouldn’t. Phosphorescent radiance in roaming ways, that twinge and flicker, distorting the sun's natural beams of rays that have sneaky ways in entering. Tilting up and gasping. Where the kids remain open and the eyes begin to scatter. Becoming aware in not small moments of waves. All at once. Hitting every burrough of one’s soul, while the hands are in the pockets of a standing body. It’s horrific, yet not in disguise, spellbindingly beautiful. Filling out the tumultuous darkness in the inner-world, tempest to awakening. Be with me now. When it starts to ****** one’s secrets. I begin to sit on the nearest chair, trying to take a look of the sun through the colours that appear. Turreted towers that collapsed. Heavy breathing that takes parts away, is the harsh payments of ones sin committed. Eccentric persona, developed from years of artisans works, finally taking over. Porta. Darling state. Poetry letters open. Words of confessions. Feet stretched out. Hands stay the pockets. Head slightly moves right. Held a moment. Looking up again. As after so many prays. The Heavens finally opening up for humanity for the first time. Rebirthed had always involved water. Overpowering welcome. Restoring from the forgiveness of sin. And each word from every dogmatic book written, pops up at random, making sense and every flash. Atmosphere drops in heavy weight, the past is murky mist. Easy to let go and never to return as a spot to live, lessons when they appear. Like how stars are here to teach beauty. Coherent schemes by the Mystics. Patternless carpets. The inner-world is a funny things. Confusing lust for love. Believing own ideas are works of genius. The sunlight darkens. The room cleared of any breeze. Still muteness. Standing and feeling the heart pump. Parish. Laugh now. In a post style, it enters with a meticulous way, lavish to make any prince grin with tinted jealous unable to contain. It’s good poetry. ****** outside, chanting to make my peace within and myself. Forgiving any mistake I bear hands had made, smile at any regret and remember shameful moments. Anything till now is nothing. Illumination happens during self-discovery or self-destruction. There’s goats in the field. Moths circle them. The ****** wears black in preparation. Myth and reality collide together when the rapture happens. Be conscious of it. Life happens, whether I pay attention or listen. Death is my final payment, after hardships that I am to endure. Passing my soul and spirits to a another world. I continue to read ancient poetry that has been written to last eternity. Sunburnt kisses on the paper. I leave the room, shall never return. And it still runes in me, like a violent fever. Standing out in supercilious atmosphere. Like a son to a Muse. Meanings in fumes. Turbulent soul, mixing in with neo ways. Sweeping motions. To what happened than, in earth is now gone forever. So goodbye. Strange to think of you, as someone I knew and we no-longer talk. During summer hazes and frost biting air whilst surviving winter. Now, we have nothing to say and never to witness another’s hard times and weep while it’s happening. Goodbye. You can say I’m hiding behind poems and their words, instead of thinking I’ve gone to seek comfort elsewhere, still you haven’t goodbye. For I still wish to live in poetics, my romantic nature I cannot part, I wanted love and so-far, only poetry had supplied. So goodbye for now. For I wanted and felt, that my own revelation would be your arms, **** fleur, thinking I’d be safe there and feeling holiness while inside your open legs, being baptised by the wetting puddles you produced. Goodbye, writing that, feeling it’s forever. Prophecy in poem perhaps. Maybe in abstract ways, in obscure and teasing ways, I tasted love, the love I felt for you and it’s snatched away in quicker ways than the duration it lasted inside. Perhaps this end of times, change of worlds, is everything wrong, my flaws, defects, regret that’s opening up to swallow me whole. And that will be the end of me. Goodbye for now. Maybe love knows how to moonlight. Lust. The freedom from the ******* of self, is an open den, full of stronger stuff than ***** **** and seducing in it’s absolute liberating methods. Twilight. A salt grain on my path to total enlightenment and I’ll be a single totality of illumination, even without my true love. Plucked from and placed down this world of Musings. Oh lover, I do wonder what would of happen. The only thought I dwell in, play to it’s fantasies. Perhaps it would be something we’ll laugh about together. Good old times, with nothing to show for. Just something shaping experiences. I’ll go forward, not knowing how to quit love. Without any conditions or expectations of communication. Look inside, for hold intimate essence of thyself, achieving the extraordinary, because now, I have no one to prove myself to, without a yielding validation. Full of mystery and wonder. Humble with the toiling actions hands and feet. Viewed as something else to others. Thyself is normal. Humility is even harder to grasp and hold. Thy world now, full of poetry I’ve written, full of gold and silver that makes love with stopping and fail, madness never hiding behind a veil, nothing else to burden me, slowing me down, never to distract. Knowing too much to which will never satisfy my thirst, but time provide to learn more. meditating over jazz ballads, smooth surface wondering moods. I’m present not with myself in comfort. Pretty words spurting out, forming sentences in hopes to evoke emotions mixed in with thoughts. Do not say hello to me now. I’ve gone elsewhere. I’ve only taken coffee and dropping off poems. Where I’m no longer a victim of times mocking laugh with the face of a clown. No longer to decay of what I could've been. Forever exists where I live. Without thy soulmate, I have everything but turned into nothing. Like a monk in a monastery. In odyssey, sleep is never, conscious always, dreamy form, full figure, waking. Tattoo drops. A saint in a province constant evolving beauty. Angels are thy neighbour. Discussing never the issues held within humanity. Passages of passionate time. Lengthy duration. Lover, if you ask me now, I got peace in my own mind and happy now. My shakes have left me, like the morning of a day beginning. Understanding everything. Dropped my heart, press it closer. I’ve dropped into myth, never to leave, exiled not, jailed not, prisoner not. Goodbye, I’ve left. Perhaps I’ll be plucked again, picked again, any enlightenment given to me, will all be stripped away and wake from this wild strawberry dream. (knowledge variable)

Scorching bullets Pass us by Like dancing faeries Around our heads You covered yourself Like a bullet proof vest Dragon's breath is unleashed Are we living among the dead? Or dead Among the living? Where wolves, griffins, and lions Retreat! But never surrender Bullets fly They want us Dead Or maybe Alive Who knows? Nothing Can **** us At all The enemy Will die Of certain heart attacks Shot With AK bullets God's will So is seared We can Do it all And rise above Our fears Deep within This blood Coursing thru our veins Lies the Hunter Among the hunted Those within This grove Are seeking Bullets To overload Among the safety We run, we hide, we search So that those of us here Will rise And never die Please cover Yourself Like a Bulletproof Vest!

Like a Bulletproof Vest
Sophie sits quietly, soaking in the sounds. This Jazz club suits her perfectly, As she swallows spirituous rounds. The music is hot, with Latin-flair, and Pulsing, staccato, percussive drive. The air on her shoulders is moist In this Parisian summer jive. Sophie tastes the twilight culture, She lives for the buzz. She won't accept the ordinary, she Vibrates with bohemian blood! She loves her music live in her Sultry summer jive.

Summer Jive
Memory passes like a bus Spirit passes like a ghost Aura disappears like a dream Smiles bend like a will Bohemians cry out and about, losing Their sanity as passions flush like Clogged sewage or drug busts, replaced with, Dare I say, growing up. No deals Selling songs to parents or art to perverts, Poems to lovers and rants about ex's Good Reapers thresh the rapid seeds Right before it's not. Maybe its time to do drugs again.

Millennial
And in that wild berlin winter I twirled ghosts through the frozen, concrete streets Out of bohemian jungles in the midnight afternoon I returned to the States with terrible ennui Slumped on cold buses I flew through Hamburg in an ***** haze Smoking joints in the lantern lit glow of Amsterdam I didn’t eat for 3 days I rode the train to Zoo Station And flitted about East Berlin Where there was no excitement to be had Walking the night alone in the bitter, biting wind I took the ferry over to England Safe in the Mersey’s mystical, dreary mist I hid my tired eyes under my fisherman’s cap And found an expanse of quiet, precious bliss Ailing from nights spent on streets and stranger’s floors I was a child, traveling alone Disenchanted by my youthful escapades, Cured of the plaguing desire to ramble and roam.

Out West I found that Dangerously glittering bohemian lifestyle. Where Los Angeles falls down with joy And rumbles deep from its canyon bellies And when you need some sadness You split to Berlin And come back with none of your clothes.

My Bohemia
Deep in wood’s twig embrace She lies beneath the leaf tessellation Her hollow skull and hollow chest are friends with the burning winds She is hallowed in her sloping waist With child She is mother bony Woman with skinless face She is grinless For her jaw was stolen in ages past Yet she is blessed with child Her middle is heavy with boundless boy A boy fated To be ******* Emperor Tyrant King To be lord of the shattered lands and even their scattered men Destined to be crowned in fragments of skulls and silky fabric reds He shall mate with fire Be father of arson spawn His face will be carved in Mammon’s silver toys He will never be forgotten by any of history’s tedious scribes Yet first he must be born Now the winds are chanting They push at her pudgy waist They are chanting for the birth of the emperor ******* king They desire the tyrant They are the slaves of God For they are catalysts that mold the shapes of futures’ lords They will sing triumphant When he is pushed through dusty hips They will congratulate their oldest and most silent friend He is birthed with great force The spit of cadaverous womb Crying shrieks in the forest No one living to clean him By spirits’ force he is taught To eat the last of mother’s skin To grow to be the friend of the whispering burning winds He shall grow into great beast With strength to wield the lance He will enter the kingdoms of men Appearing as a wild God While he is shaping his role His mother will often laugh Ever since he left her Her body was never again the same

I live in a desert My Dear. With a loopy-eyed cat who bites and a roommate who might as well. All of my clothes are ripped and stained and I don't know where I'll be working tomorrow. The other vagrants and I We can't afford to stay, but we can't afford the gas to leave, either. The summers are too hot-- the winters are too cold-- and the days and the nights are too dangerous. But we're here and we're young. And someone has to feed the cat.

comely, maybe but not beautiful my features are as round as vowels and I carry the moon in my hips I am an unpolished beauty smooth pebbles resting at the bottom of a cold clear stream with an empty purse imagination my only currency in this world I am a shrinking violet occasionally a rose february-white caught in your button-loop long-stemmed red roses stalk runways hollywood bombshells are bubbly as champagne and full of flesh and light but *** sans love is still an empty bathtub whatever happened to pin-up girls long cigarette holders and muted photographs? I am distorted in the fish-eye view of the modern lens in my fantasies I am no longer sand and loam I glow like a tall slim candle though I am often numb and dumb and my girls are as absent as long lost unicorns I am the bohemian princess I travel through foreign lands clothed in exotic costume a jewelled headdress, and indian pyjamas coloured sapphire, turquoise and cayenne-red my feet are near bare and my hippie hair is a mass of blonde curls I take a sojourn in southern california warm desert air soft against my skin I surf in the salty sea held buoyant by the waves a sunset stains the sky tangerine the palm trees black against the orange light click teasingly in the breeze

In My Fantasies
They call me bohemian, a lost intellectual hidden with no ambition A happy go lucky, who hops and hits like a river flowing downhill A philosophical dreamer with subjective absolutions unrealistic surreal expectations They see my eccentric fashion the chic grease of mismatch A happenstance of my day's mood My mind is indigenous My soul is gender fluid A vessel of masculinity and femininity One day, it's a skirt and blouse The next is a bow tie and shirt The other is a blend of two A maverick in a world alone I felt it all my life, the lack of connection No motions with the convectional Their whispers cannot be heard I am done with biting my nails Let them pull their hair with their noise Their chitter and chatter complaints As I gaze and talk to the floor weary of their mediocre complaints

Trying to breathe, TRYING TO BREATHE into the woods. An old woman in a furry hat & I, laughing together still somewhat lifelike. Ever too proud to play boomerang or go fetch for change FOR CHANGE we live out of bags. Exactly where we're meant to be & 'how you say?' ...all that jazz." --shoo.shu #doubleentendres #poetry #spilledink #inthenow #inthemoment #underdog #homeless #boho #bohemian #wanderlust #gypsy #nomad
