#course
have mined so oft my core,
it is quite the hugest bore,
this morning, a rare overflow,
the poems drop like sniffles,
wet rom!com teardrops,
and plenty more to follow,
as my storage unit runneth over,
and the author-o-rities
complain I’ve taken too much space
on the internet’s gigga~giggle~light~bytes;
but the stomach reminds mas, mas,
so I’ll wander to the kitsch~en
for some stocky sticky whipped
almond/peanut butter, which has proven
the most effective stopper of
my fingertips, them compositional angels,
and dem muses, who beg me for to lick
my fingers, to distract me from working them overtime
no sense of humor, those amusing muses…

Foller Gill’s story treads
seemingly softly, rhythmically,
leaves their fresh green mark
beyond the grey, beaten paths.
Foller Gill takes
the much lesser-trod course,
searches deeper, further, takes
secrets to their mainstream beck.
Euden Beck strides
hungry, curiously thirsty,
pushes past the slow, shaded fields,
scorns their hemmed-in universe.
Bedburn Beck ambles,
tramples down all resistance,
insistent in their pursuit
of an ancient destiny.
The Wear wanders,
snakes towards their final estuary,
savors the holy promise,
the gift of the free, North Sea.
Foller Gill bathes
unbound in their ocean.
And their legend continues.

Just live like a bus
driver, all the diversions --
then become the route.

Locked out of every building down the block of trust
Left in my torrential downfall to rust
Knocked off course by a simple gust
A visual SOS is a must
But follow the flair I launch daily at dusk
And stumble across a cold and lonely husk

Of course it is you stuck in my brain
Of course you linger like a stain
Only topic my mind thinks about
Cause you crossed it once
Now won't get out

Only later I could
play without acting
play the leading role
in my life, my destiny
presorted or coincidental
bad luck on the inside
of my desirable body
loved
without lasting interest
in me, my presence
my desirous spirit
that lay awake
from them, their dreams
which I could not follow
which spurned me
afraid
of the effort that it takes
to change and
not to continue to press
the bruises

Greece in muted pink.
Flooded in Haiku and rubble.
The painstakingly, shin.
Filled in ghosts and napkins for yours.
When it rains.
Flowing blanketed surprise, the fiends.
Never.
Over and against certain other pains.
Because it rains.
Garrett Johnson.

So scared
With unfounded fears
Filling me
I don't want to **** myself
So win back myself
My future for my greed
Focus full force
I need all 18 holes
On this golf course

I name it, a little prayer deep in my heart.
I call it forth, what is coming, is coming on foot.
Whether it takes days or years,
I have set my course; the intent is strong.
There is no wavering here;
the sails are already high
–and the wind is too wise.

Do you know
What happens
When two stars
Collide?
They either
Turn into
A gargantuan
Mother star
Or a black hole
******* the life and light
Out of all that dares
To exist.
Do you know
What happens
When two people collide?
They either
Turn into a wonderful
Sun that gives life
To all that dares
To exist
Or it flushes
Away the light
Of both people
And reduces both
To heartbreak.

beyond
beyond the judge
beyond all concepts
beyond your war
beyond all mishaps
beyond each label
beyond the critique
beyond your fear
beyond all defeat
beyond your good
beyond the bad
beyond all happy
beyond the sad
that’s where i’ll be ‘cause
that’s where we’re free
that’s where there’s peace
that’s where words cease
that’s when we’ll see
who we are clearly
for the very first time

Half human, half car
we follow a road, somewhere –
in between two maps.

**** it they said, without bowing their head, and forgot to mention they knew.
The story was told, of a trail of gold, that seemed too good to be true.
That trail it seems, was really a dream of the man that guarded the book.
The book was so old that the pages we're told, were faint, and gobbledygook.
What would you do if your trail's taboo, would you continue and go on your way?
Or change up your course, find a new source, and see how it plays out today?

Foolish
Really how did I not know
Every feeling I have towards you is a reflection of something within myself
Of course I don't trust you
I have nothing but doubt for myself
My own thoughts contradict one another
I'm afraid to be proud
I can't remember the last time I felt unabashedly proud
I can remember silently rejoicing straight faced after scoring a goal in a soccer game
Brushing off my teammates cheers and shouts
I can remember trying to let my friends know
I'm just a good test taker
That good grades don't equate to intelligence
Subtly depreciating my own source of pride
Too afraid to have ownership
Of any talent or skill
I'd rather halt progress than be granted attention
I'd rather lose all my skills than have superiors with high expectations
So you shouldn't expect me, really
To be capable of loving you
I'll give too much or too little
But I'll never quite be sure you really love me

"Do you still love me?"
"Of course I love you"
"How much?"
"I love you with all my heart. Well, what's left of it anyways.."

a crash course is the best way to learn;
describe the world in ways I cannot understand, and I
will do my best to undo the hinges underneath your skin.
chase the shadows until they leave you alone,
your heart skips like a record, off beat
stuck on a loop but let it rest a minute.
Don't **** my vibe this early in the night,
wait at least until my skin crawls and my shoulders cramp up in my sleep
test me a few more times and I just might snap
my shell is only so thick;
you're cooking up a storm but I intend to stir the ***
if you find me on my knees, you'd best bet
i've got a knife up my sleeve
best to just leave it alone;
a rolling stone gathers more speed
the nearer it gets to its target.

I got a couple of things to say
That I feel would clear
All that fog that hangs
Inside my head
and makes it
so hard to
think.
But if I open my mouth
All the mist will
Come out
And I won't see
the truth.

I went to a film screening
Fun, but I'm so drained
