Der Schauspieldirektor (The Impresario)
The Producers,
the real makers of goods we exchange, you
all realizing we were imaginably real to you.
Forsake not the flocking together,
as the manner of some is.
We hang together or most assuredly alone.
Commas can let us breathe or make us pause
without breathe-ing out, holding whole a time.
Demonstrable weformed all at once turning,
on Earth, in the span of three minutes
retuning time and chance crosswind
Darwin considered the ability
to produce musical notes
without direct use
the most mysterious endowment of mankind,
you all, listening beyond the pallisade, humin
y'all comin' one day to be judged by--- whom?
Have ye never read, we must judge angels?
Try the spirits, we were told, listen, be wary
wares wielded wisely, yes, knowing needing
knowers with some serpentine drive belts,
calling for clutches letting wheels spin free.
Making sense somewhere whence freedom
from stranger danger is nullified, impossible
nothing hellish lingers at death's door, true,
you may become wise as a serpent, perhaps
dragon expresses wisdom better, same idea,
your lizard brain cognition system piezo spark.
Under pressure to perform, laughing at that
knowledge.
Piezo sparked fire, the tongue no man tames,
the tiller telling the pilot to pay heed, indeed
we make our own way home work wonders,
while we share our unencumbered liberty,
wishing
evidence exchanged for faith shell midden
mound of traditional values used to entertain
Narration, rationalize pitch and sequence,
pay attention to the plumber tapping out
grout to remove ceramic tile, nextdoor,
all really ancient handiwork,
can we still make fire by hand? I wonder,
we can watch a youtube and get the idea,
- but not if all hell breaks loose, right?
Who can say, ah
me, I can say
amen,
but can we leisure class old ne'er do wells,
classified disabled for productive employment
truly pierce the last breath reality forming awe
mental suffixiation permanent mental looping
fractalling arrhythmic patterns minds perceive
receivable on all active cognitive lexigraphics
Kababble Chebar canal coilition, make it so
Caballic logic linked
kerplunk thunk
reimagine learning
after learning how fire
was kept alive, lucky lightning strike, may be,
coincidental summertime event, when we
**** sapiens innocents were on our own,
dystopia eutopian chittering fowl, our own
breath finding its fit in the local noises of life.
Are we historically fixed right now, or do we
redeem time
telling,
once
when I was told to bring the keynote, to us,
congregated to consume poetic driftwood,
cold snap in May, northern climes.
Fire kept fresh all winter long, long ago,
when king's museums were sunlit or not lit.
Who has the time reasonably
to peruse Vitruvius man,
and feel religiously,
under holy lust as described
in scripture, letters holding truth, as said,
Nothing hidden, nothing not made known,
the law is the law, we live under rule of law,
say those who serve the labor class essentials.
Compromise dominion -- bring on home.
In my father's house, on our mother's world,
we live and learn to be mankind, wombed
and un, awe learn to use man kindly as me,
I am my brother's keeper, I understand,
the very first kid did not understand, and
as happens with male pattern baldness,
what seed is sown is the whole truth grown
kinds of mongrels and kinds of pure breeds,
kinda consciousness that forms actual
knacks, flavors of ways being is done.
Intuited first impression at scale,
you know you know and do
as you enjoy imagining doing
in ever, in spirit, in mind, enjoyment,
mere use being, in spirit in mindspace
thinkable at speeds passing light
setting up a day's worth
of pure wisdom finding elemental fits
repurposed
to inspire ****** reproduction
to become proletarian next time.
Seeing flaccid Vitruvius man,
knowledge stretches to expand
-- it's true, we have yeast in us
condemnation deserved
smiling at the notion…
gaseous we, what a piece of work,
¿á?
if the law allows lying
to save an advantage,
is the law just
after we survive and meet life
face to face, as promised, this is that day.
So… poetic license revocation, volunteer
to enforce the promise to discern the whole
truth, regarding air share on Earth,
after realizing Earth is as ever must be.
Or we are dead already and just messin' witcha

I never grew tall enough to
confidently grasp the top shelf
cereal box on the first try.
Fumbling, I’d finger its corners—
swiping mercilessly at its edges
until I could feel it fill
the curves of my desperate palm.
It gives in. Gravity assists.
Heels hit the floor.
I won again.
Back then, Persistence was my
favorite professor who always
curved the final.
I never grew mindful enough to
confidently grasp when
I should end the chase.
Writhing, I want and want—
curating the parts of myself
I think he’d like the most, but
he never turns on the light.
I collect dust. The hour hand assists.
Heels hit the floor.
I have this lesson on repeat,
and the stop button is broken.
These days, Hope has become my
favorite form of punishment
who expertly disguises herself
as wisdom.

She lived in my inbox,
a constant pulse of memes and midnight thoughts,
fragments of her days in a city I’d never walked
a movie recommendation
a reminder to sleep early
a nudge to wake up and try again.
Even from miles away
she found a way to stay close
weaving herself into my new routine
as if distance was just another setting
to adjust.
Her life moved forward in photos and captions
shared glimpses of places I could only picture
I watched, I listened, I responded
but slowly, the messages thinned,
the spaces between them stretching wider
until silence settled where she used to be.
Yet
even now,
some nights I still hear her voice in my head:
“Go to sleep early”
as if she’s still looking out for me
somewhere beyond the screen.

A pageant of recklessness
A disregarded package of regrets and resentments
Tired and penniless
Unrepairable, no time to do maintenance
Unguarded and anxious
A messenger absent of messages
An organic premise of a pesimess
Heart of ice and might be the coldest
A lot of truth is said in jest
Even if hard to digest
But how is it I'm still on karma's shiit list?
It's hit list might as well be a balled up fist
Split personality,
Both turn against me with the quickness
Okay life, I give in, you win,
You're better than me at this
I've seen enough, I'm done,
Don't force me to continue to be a witness
To this travesty you supplied me with to begin with

I hear him /
I see him /
I fathom him /
From afar /
Knowing that love looms over the horizon. /
He gives me the wings to soar /
Into the dreamscape /
There I find stillness, heartsease & the resplendant, radiant moonbeams /
The mellifluous musicality /
—He spirits me away./
La voce de la luce, /
La voce de la luce, /
Miramos, /
Escuchamos, /
A la voce de la luce. /
What do you /
See /
When you look at me? /
What do you /
See? /
I see a cosmos: /
I see the moon, the sun, the stars, /
A luminary, I see the trajectory /
The path of someone doubtless, /
Of someone indefatigable. /
Wombed skies, the aethers, /
Someone, something, /
So pristine, crystalline, intemerate, /
Unmatched, in formosity. /
—It's you. /

Turn into the breeze
so you could listen…
Tune into
the sullen whispers…
The wind…
Is merely a messenger,
conveying the song
of a long lost love.

Sorry but not sorry
For the things that I have done.
Sorry but not sorry
For all the pain under the sun.
And all the longing to set ourselves apart
From the will of the masses,
Though we clearly stand as one.
And the reticence to play our part
In building on new bridges,
Though we clearly need them now.
Short story long,
Long story short -
Sorry but not sorry
For writing off this song.
Sorry but not sorry
For all the excuses that I make.
Sorry but not sorry
For not owing back what we take.
And all the mannerism along which we pretend
To care so much about the future,
Though we clearly act for our only sake.
And the conflicting messages that we must send
As we aim to **** the messenger,
Though we clearly all covet his fame.
Short story long,
Long story short,
Sorry but not sorry,
For writing off this song.
Sorry but not sorry
For casting off one more blame.
Sorry but not sorry
For the ills that one must name.
And all the finger-pointing with no concrete action
As we forget the final hour,
Though we clearly hear the call
And all the conflicts that we set in motion
As we bow to the god of power,
Though it clearly draws our fall
Short story long,
Long story short,
Sorry but not sorry,
For writing off this song.

The pyramid is the final vision beyond which there is no passing.
It is a moving Kaaba, carried away by angels and forces.
There is no way out of the pyramid.
When I reach the top it becomes less important as a top and a point.
The only way out of the pyramid is to attack it, which would attack beauty and attack simplicity.
Observing it is like having every answer given and every mystery solved, except Its own mystery.
The Messenger is the Pyramid of Reality.

The Pyramid is the Messenger
of the Spirit world after we pass on.
We all must resolve to consecrate
our actions to the Pyramid there.
The Orb is the handmaid that
every soul is given for its care.

"A" crowned my head with a crown like
twigs while "A" was seated on the Throne.
Notice how Baha'u'llah reverberates that it is a different
throne, yet in essence the same One.
Fire like a rainbow.
Notice how a Prophet would gulp when another Prophet is
"mentioned".
Notice how a Prophet does not need to "believe" in else
except God.
"C" is same.
If I am a Prophet without a voice from God, please
don't let me speak.
All the Prophets have transparent beauty like
"C".
Above the City of Immortality is the Valley of
the Manifestations. Where the Sun of Reality
is home and all the denizens are refreshed
and find God again from whence they have
left. Nothing but God lies above this Valley
and the Presence of the Beloved is aglow
....in every limb.
The Presence is enlivening and heavy
in vitality.
"I hate you, I love, I hate that I love you",
echoes to hearts not attune to the Transcendent One.
The Presence has a unique energy that allows
Them to change the universe of lower natures.
All stresses dissipate away.
Those Eyes that see all of me.
Energy as if from another world,
as if always awakening from bed.
It is sitting in the Manifestation's Tent.
It is feeling Their skin become mine own skin.
Light so warm that it is cool.
Names have no place here,
only Spirit - the Transcendent.
I forget myself and
instead caught up in "A".
The fullness of the Manifestations will soon, soon
manifest in all of us.
24 karat Golden DNA.

Forest never forgot.
Those that stayed too long,
warned by the land.
And when they entered
again, unheeding --
Forest never forgave.

When my heart started ticking in rhyme
And the three arms ran around and chime
I ran faster and fast
Then got slower at last
And now not good enough for a dime.

Your mouth is a smoking gun.
Reloading for the next reply,
After insults have been fired.
Shoot me down where I stand,
Silence me before the quipped-barrel clicks.
Triggered, you shoot the messenger,
Before our story had finished.

We used to talk for hours,
Through messages on our phones,
About anything and everything,
Even moans and groans.
We use to chat alot,
Catching gossip and thoughts,
About how hot or cold it was,
And I'm always wearing shorts.
I used to wake to a message,
"Good morning

I thought you were sent from heaven,
But you came straight from hell.
clawing, scratching, gnawing me down.
Not even “God” can save us now.
Te hodiste. **** it.”
Pobrecito. “Poor thing.”
Cooing like a child who steals your heart,
Never to return.

Millennial is what called in this generation,
Everywhere here and there,
There are always youths who really never care,
And never been worried about their future.
In Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Messenger,
Are contents of follower, liker, reader and including seener,
Loitering and using fake accounts just to gain a wholesome money,
Even though that it is notorious, they still embark their blunt journey.
Most millennial are undisputedly addicted to social media,
Their lives depends on likes they are going to gain,
They don't care if their faces might be inside of multi-media,
And they don't even care if it will give them a pain.
Some truly go beyond their limits just to have a lot of likes,
Perhaps they are fame ***** but they don't care if someone strikes,
Strikes every part of their body including their faces and such,
Yet they don't care if it will hurt them too much.
However, seeking attention in the cyber world isn't a good thing,
Instead they should focus on things that are essentially free like a king,
Because in this generation, too many people are unaware and careless,
And some they didn't even noticed that our environment is already full of fraud either hypocrite and genuine people are less.

Today is a messenger from God
Sent to us in fulfillment of his word.
Treat it like a precious gem.
It's a special day to them
Who values the blessings it brings
Not only the useless material things.
Today is also another day
Just like yesterday.
It began this morning
And will end this evening.
Accidents will happen,
Taking the lives of many men.
Many people will cry,
And many more will try
To be brave and strong
Even when all goes wrong.
Today is another day
To me,it's like any other day.
Happy children will play,
And some people will pray.
For many,it will be their last,
And for young babies, their very first.
Few people will take a bath,
And many happy folks will laugh.
Many good books will be read,
And hungry Stomachs will be fed.
The dead among us will be buried
And many couples will get married.
Others will pray to God above
To send them someone to love.
Yes or no, it's up to God
To honor his divine word.
You see,at the end of the day,
It's He who has the final say.
So remember to give him praise,
For today was sent by his grace.

I write my secret thoughts about you,
On that crumple paper.
Then, I turned that crumple paper into a paper plane.
I made that paper plane.
As a messenger to connect myself to you.
Yet,
My messenger fly…
But never reach you.
And that’s the reason
My thoughts about you
Stay as a secret.

How do I stop
The little green dot and your name
From appearing at the top of my chat bar
Every time I go to stay connected with the world?
Daring me to click it
Ask how you are
Ask you not to forget me.
There it is –
Staring directly at me.
Raised off the screen -
But I’m didn’t ******* pay for 3D.
Hovering green dot -
Appearing then disappearing and reappearing.
The symbolism ripped from the pages of Gatsby doesn’t escape me.
At least if all we had was a narrow channel between us I could simply swim across.

It was time for a messenger from above
not with malice but surprisingly with love
there were things to do - new guidelines to set
people to reassure when they peeped over the parapet
Depression was lifted, everyone told they were gifted
reminded that they had drifted from God's plan
I am different from you therefore I do not approve
you are the same, there is no change in your mind
There are games - even then you fight, I will raise
your tolerance to a new height: you will laugh
when you lose, even embrace when you see joy in a face
that sets the tone for more serious things -
Removing hate, historical discension, time to move on -
now I'm gone, my work is complete - don't let me down
