Apocalypse day, Powers out across the road, Railroad tracks empty. Indigo sunsets, Layered altocumulous Floating gray cloud banks. Only the lonely Observe past and future now Leaving no facts out. Surely, April Fools!

April Fools
I was in my bed feeling some dread of not finding any friends. I woke up, I slept again and I felt the chain of my internal disdain.

Loneliness
Timing is everything We                       Are The.             Last Generation Full.               cup Prin               ciple We’ll                  wait for                   the Right          time tribulation Be         Gins God’s.            will Be                    done We are only as strong as our weakest link In preservation we think Make love, not war What are we fighting for? As in the time of Noah Fighting amongst ourselves America will fall from within On our knees tribulation begins The vultures circle to feast The arrival of Satan‘s beast The smell of death is in the air American’s act without care Living absent of God, unaware When tribulation begins Man’s Sins Will be on full display God‘s wrath has plenty to say God wants our full attention The Bible reveals His full intention

As Strong as our Weakest Link
Knit you a sweater Knit us together Together by dawn Together by dusk Dusk and cicadas Dusk is a blanket Blanket in blue Blanket in music Music hums soft Music for nights Nights like this Nights in spring Spring with rain Spring with flowers Flowers by porch Porch well-loved Porch with wood Wood swing and chairs Wood swing sways Sways like dancers Sways like strands Strands of hair Strands that curl Curl your fingers Curl ‘round mine Mine for now Mine to keep Keep you close Keep me safe Safe to touch Safe in here Here we lay Here we breathe Breathe in sync Breathe out words Words like poems Words like rivers Rivers running Rivers rushing Rushing forward Rushing out Out my lips Out to yours Yours for years Yours always Always you Always me Me… You.

together for always
The dog's paw is broken. The dog's in unbearable pain. The dog's not whimpering. It's as if happy. It's not on a chain. The dog's satisfied with the sunshine. And yesterday it was raining. That's bad... Somebody threw a bone in the garbage. It'll probable get it to eat beforehand. Both dog's eyes are squinty. It's warm and free now in whole Yesterday's gone. Tomorrow'll be later. Today the dog's calm at all

The dog's paw is broken...
another january rain above us, same month, same city, same conflict, a different ‘you’ in my poems. i wonder what you really felt when you slung my arm over yours, when you relentlessly chased my hand, those hard, seasoned fingers on mine. i try to fight you off, but i wind up linking our arms in a chain, rubbing your back until i’m sore, hearing you ramble in that car ride, as you asked about my bruises and searched for my hand before i cut you off, knowing we cannot be more than this, at least not now. that night when the sky sobbed watching us, i wished you were drunk every day and regretted that i was completely sober.

There is a golden chain of love That ties us all together It unites us in one spirit and heart Joined as sister and brother Across the land, the sky, and sea There is a chain by which we're bound The world's most wondrous mystery Is this love so deep and so frofound Do to others what you would Want to have done to you This was the old law and fair Now we take this command to new heights When we love one another As we have first been loved: With a total, radical, sacrificial Eternal, unconditional, unwavering LOVE Make peace, not war. Make love, not hate. Be kind, not callus. Be genuine, not fake. This love that binds us breaks the chains We wrap ourselves in of sin and shame Though our differences seem great They really become quite small When we stop and think and wonder At the love God has for us all So, live your lives in this tapestry of gold And reject not a proffered hand to hold For we are all a link in this great chain of love Connected to each other and God up above

Golden Chain Of Love
~ for the grandson of an extraordinary man~ <> the supply chain, which unless you’re a logistics aficionado, is   alot of ve-hicles, planes, trains, ocean going monster ships, & shaking hands of humans, of a Heinz variety of colors, who give nary a moment to what it is they are moving across a planet all miraculous in the ordinary schema, but when you slump in the recliner, and think about chains, and the reach extraordinary you issue a curse of admiration and lean back and think, with luck, I’ll never have to move ever again, and more moment’s preserved, to serve and be served, for all us deserving, to let words and visions get passed around, and the supply ***chain unchains the human soul for the best thing us you~mans can truly produce, the art of new creation*** 4:07am

logged 6 hours, then contemplated...the supply chain
It started with a spark, But burnt enough to leave a mark. When the pain I endured, Waited to be cured. I was not in my right mind, Where freedom is hard to find. Had to pave an exit, Not knowing I will even make it. Years gone past, Feeling free at last. All the tears I hide, Finally subside. It seemed too good to be true, However truly it never last. Because they kept coming back, To haunt me once again

Incremental actions Bring monumental Changes. With every added Bitcoin block, The ledger Rearranges. Tick and tock, We add a block, The chain is fundamental. So many problems Fixed and solved By entries incremental. More love and hope - Connection too, I’m getting sentimental. About sound money, Fixed supply Spread intercontinental.

Incremental Actions - Bitcoin Poem 100
A Woman took My Name, While a Girl stole My Heart. On seeing the Girl with Me, The Woman's headaches Start. The Woman has Sharp Eyes, The Girl's Eyes are Blue. The Woman has chained My Life and wants to stick Me with Glue. The Girl holds on to My Heart While the Woman holds on to Me. What good is this Life of mine, When My Heart isn't Free. I'm caught in a ****** Triangle, Where the characters are the Same. All I do is play Hide and Seek. When they keep calling out My Name.

A Girl stole My Heart
Old wine, sometimes, has been vinegar, a while. On opening, one learns, they say. It's good for cleaning windows, and lenses. - but we'd better let the next - jug of that vintage go to auction New wine. Make glad the heart, workers in the vineyard, laughing tired, sugar high burned out, say hey, boss, why don't you hire more hands, eleventh hour hordes appear, as they by right of the lateness, are payed a whole day's wage. And that's alright now, momma, nobody cheated me, I worked all day, took my pay. And it is, very good, if I may say so now, Life is short, but filled with instances, infinite instants in some state of methodic mental ascent. And that's alright now, momma, nobody cheated me, I worked all day, took my pay. We got plenty, we have confirmed, as is, to up and hit the road, go boldly old into this cold night.

New wine from old vines
Sometimes, When the sun gets low, And the stars and moon don’t seem to be hanging in the sky, Taunting me with their ability to disappear into oblivion, It can feel almost impossible to breathe. While I know that being unable to breathe Because there is nothing in the darkness to light my way Is as about impossible as it is possible for me to love you again, It is still my reality. I know that my heart will never be open to the possibility of surrendering itself so completely to you once more, Just as well as I know that this weight on my chest isn’t real, But it doesn’t make the feeling evaporate like water on a blisteringly hot day, Or even on a slightly too warm for a jumper day. The harshness of my condition has been taught to me Like a bunny has been taught to hide When the foxes stalk it’s way. Even more so, the cures have been preached to me since The moment I admitted I led a tormented existence, And yet my existence has remained tormented. Maybe this is my moment, my completely, impossible to ignore, Unavoidable, Moment. To quiet those which torment me. Which taunt me. Which remind me, I will never truly escape these chains That hold me on the starless nights.

A moment.
It’s a fork you don’t want to walk It’s a mind you don’t want to find It’s a fall you don’t want to crawl It’s a rage you don’t want to cage It’s a trap you don’t want to snap It’s a sin you don’t want in

That kind of dangerous
DEAR PENPAL PEOPLE, when you know you know :>>>> in the window pane nature white brided its head through its bewildered veins a sonata to the heart that breathes a blessing in a pile of much a locking of a chain that believes in no such of an ending that green around eyes of jealous presence and a million miles tall table of a wooden necklace                                                                        ------ravenfeeels

Imaginary Sonata
excess rusted broken shackles free from ancient gyves tongues in dungeons no more a present prisoner of forefather's measures ears drum no more notes fall through the cracks remodeling skips yet another age future slavers of our descendants emancipated you stand a guests to a freeman's world you are no more return us to the future free from the present past. In mirrored minds we remain.

The past future
Silence can be comforting Silence can be calming Silence can be harming Silence can be deathly Silence can be stealthy In this silence, you can leave me You can break me Drown me in this silent sea This silence is killing me This silence is chaining me down Leaving me to drown While I wish to be free In this silent sea ~15/4/21

daisy chain
Tears salty lava snaking down my ashy skin meeting at the curves of my lips, bouncing off the flesh when I speak. Your laugh on the other end vibrations that leave me deaf and yet I stay eager for more, slumping against the sound. Heart the weighed down wriggling piece of nothing, the chipped little porcelain teacup the veiny vessel suddenly releases and rises, no longer drowned by thoughts. I missed the sound of your voice saying you loved me, I miss how I feel when I hear you. Missing someone is bad enough, but to miss their voice on top of it? Their voice, their touch. I've touched you only a few times in a span of mere hours, and yet I think about it every day. This hoodie is very nice, but it doesn't compare in the slightest to your arms around me. I love your chain, but it pales in comparison to you as well. you. I love you. and I am so so sorry that I ever let you doubt that, I'm so sorry that you ever wonder, I'm so sorry for the times that I make you sad. I don't mean to be. I'm going to start working on it, I promise I will. I love you.

I Cry Too Much
Green grass, silver chain, a low, slate sky waiting to rain. My Golden Retriever finishes her yawn, sits up, and takes off like a shot towards the far end of the lawn. In one, long wave the fine mesh links are played out until the line yanks taut. The dog never learns. My heart sinks. From "Bird's Nest In Your Hair" by Brian Jobe
