#compromised
I don't know what you were doing, But you look like a dog That just stole the roast From right off the table! Actually, I know it, I'm just giving it a better face. In that mercy, is it grace? Is it blessing? Are you saved? Anchors like weights, Writs from writers acting Behind the curtains. I fear they don't even know it's a play, But they're aware there's stakes. Whatever press representative That today flirt nationally Are riddled with stains. Very few apart from the alternative, Though they have well suffered By those who are dependents. Who is guilty? Who is judging?

I Think Not & Judge Less
in many ways many of us are compromised itemized labeled priced bought and sold or waiting in line to be. the only escape hatch is inside of us do not let anyone or en-ti-ty buy you and do not sell yourself take yourself off the shelf quarantine the virus tune in to your humanity and spirituality tune out the survival of the fittest mentality of the dog eat dog world.

Haiku / Senryu #24 - Man's salvation is....
Can't have an opinion, Or question her decision, Forget about our ideals, She doesnt want to hear, Unless it's about the way she feels, Fall in line or leave, No compromise, Stern face as ever, Watching tears fall from my eyes, Maybe life was too tough on her, Maybe that's why shes like it, Doesn't give a **** about your opinion, Listening but never hearing, Quiet only so she can speak, The conversations over as soon as she feels complete, Nothing in common, Different worlds, Only thing bonding us is blood, I try to connect, It's clear I'm misunderstood, How am I supposed to move forward. Never a good word to say about me, Though that's not what's scary, The fact she thinks she knows me, Knows my life, She doesn't, I tell her nothing, I learned a long time ago, Theres only so much you can say to someone that doesn't see you, So after a while, I just stopped trying, Change is something she doesn't care for, So I take my place, Putting one knee on the floor.

The Hunt (The Agent, pt.2)
overthinking every situation Feeling like i drank poison after simply one question. My stomach is in a whirl i feel uncertainties this feeling of blind trust and comfort is what some wait eternities.   And yet instead of rejoice i just want to flee I’m lost at sea, and slowly sinking deeper remembering the pain thinking what if i can’t keep her? I’ve set myself limitations, never allowing room for temptation but she broke down boundaries and put me on my knees To think, all she said was Hi to me

LOVE?
How to lose someone, in the instant. Through the paralleled tunnels of a second, To feel something, ever bending within the palms of your hand. I caught hold of you, somewhere in another dimension. But here you stay lingering upon my realities Keeping me compromised.
