#mini
the worldly swirling reverberating, whirlpool whirling, the To Do list,
issuing senior commands, and the poetry dieting and exercise regime
is muffled, though notes and promises atomizing, ideas and excitations, on the cardboard backs of yellow pads jotted, on menus for Chinese and Indian incantations,
assembled in their own corner reservoir,
nonetheless and all the more,
no births recorded, no spawn of the dawn, product of mid of night
illegal ramblings by the
East River
none
achieve a hallelujah ***********
and the pile of drafts messy are assorted and distorted in their own corner of the white writing desk,
stillborn lay, or more accurately they cry out pained:
"no, no, still to be born!"
"not yet dead!"
"permanent gestation is not a destination"
and other survivor slogans,
and mind and body bloated with
need to ex and to in
hale
them,
to let the healing compounding components of
new compositions see a
glorious Mayday morn of a steady streaming of
howling babies, and all agree,
look at you, look at me, look at this
5 minutes sassy essay on your lassoed status,
now force the door ajar and let the nightlight lead you to dawn,
deliver us, satisfy out our cravings,
make us wholesome and then,
with a sacred finishing
wand waving of blessed
Hallelujah
Amen!
Selah!
now get to work,
*** of coffee witches brew,
knock off the stalling,
Sondheim humming,
crying out a
****** recognition,
"*send in the clown,
no more; maybe next year,
too late,
I'm here...*"

औरों को दे महल बनाकर
ख़ुद झोपड़ में रहता है
बात करें हम आज श्रमिक की
जिसकी व्यथा न कोई समझता है।
भर के आँखों में सपने
वो गाँव छोड़कर आता है
शहर की चकाचौंध भरी दुनिया में
ख़ुद को अनजाना पाता है
सारे दर्द समेट के अंदर
बाहर से मुस्कुराता है
बात करें हम आज श्रमिक की
जिसकी व्यथा न कोई समझता है।
जेठ की जलती गर्मी हो
या हो जाड़े की मार
मुश्किल भरे हालातों में भी
न माने कभी वो हार
चंद मज़दूरी की ख़ातिर
दिन रात वो मेहनत करता है
बात करें हम आज श्रमिक की
जिसकी व्यथा न कोई समझता है।
परिश्रम करता सबसे ज्यादा
फिर भी दुत्कारा जाता है
करोड़ों कमाने वाले मालिक से
ख़ुद समय पर पगार न पाता है
फिर भी करता न उफ़ कभी
चुप-चाप सब सहता जाता है
बात करें हम आज श्रमिक की
जिसकी व्यथा न कोई समझता है।
मजबूर हो गए आज श्रमिक
जब कोई मदद न करता है
वापस अपनों से मिलने
वो मीलों पैदल चलता है
पैर में पड़ गए मोटे छाले
फिर भी उसके कदम न हारे
देख के ऐसी हिम्मत उसकी
ख़ुद कहर भी दंग रह जाता है
बात करें हम आज श्रमिक की
जिसकी व्यथा न कोई समझता है।

Labor agony
Make others a palace
He lives in a hut
Talk about labor today
No one understands the agony ..
Dreams in all eyes
He leaves the village
In the dazzling world of the city
Finds himself a little unknown
Inside all the pain
Smiles from outside
Talk about labor today
No one understands the agony ..
Hot summer
Or be winter
Even in difficult conditions
Never believe that every
For the sake of a few wages
Day and night he works hard
Talk about labor today
No one understands the agony ..
Works hard the most
Is still rebuked
From a boss who earns crores
Do not pay on time
Never does oops ever
All is silent
Talk about labor today
No one understands the agony ..
Today the workers were forced
When no one helps
To go back to the village
He walks for miles
Thick ulcers in the leg
Still don't lose his steps
Seeing this courage
Amber also bends down
Talk about labor today
No one understands the agony of ...

I don't care about popular belief but this is my take on tantra and tantric sex. Though I have never tried it and DON'T WANT TO because of my experience with its **** and from others I know. It's is an evil and degenerative thing to do. It more ***

The puffs.
Those mini puffs.
Then round, yellow, mini puffs.
Making things seem happy.
Making things smelll nice.
Making things simple and beautiful.
Tickling when touched.
Teaching us about love,
Warmth and family.
Round, puffy, fuzzy, yellow and petable
Yet tiny:
The yellow baby mums.

My mother decided not to fight with the Earth anymore
While she wanted zucchini she let the blueberries grow.
She parked her little trailer by the trees and closed the door
I guess my mother decided not to fight with anyone anymore.
"Just what I needed" she proclaimed as she showed me around
her little trailer in the woods, wheels already sinking in the ground
A sink, a table, two coffee cups, a bed
and almost enough room to stand without hitting your head
on a three acre plot with a five bedroom home...
My mother decided not to fight with that house anymore.
"No shoes allowed," if one of the two rules of the trailer
Because my mother decided she's not gonna sweep anymore
She left home with her baby and boyfriend
in a school bus I wouldn't doubt he stole.
(My mother decided she wasn't gonna fight with her mother anymore.)
And when that wasn't working, she went off on her own.
Her son was the only man she'd fight for.
She married my father because;
"he just wouldn't leave me alone."
My mother decided not to fight it anymore
She fought for her house, her kids and she swore
she'd fight to the death if someone tried to take that from her.
Fought she did, fiercely or quietly
she did what she needed to.
How did my mother always know what to do?
One night we snuck out in the darkness
we left home for somewhere new.
She dressed us up in dresses and we drove and we drove
My mother decided we weren't going to church anymore.
We'd go to prison to see my father even though she was told
if we didn't we'd have a beach house in Jersey, everything paid for.
Because of her I know my father and love him unconditionally
Maybe my mother decided she wasn't going to keep that from me.
Because of her I know my siblings, doesn't sound like a choice
But my mother decided no one was going to separate us.
My mother decided not to fight with the Earth anymore.
She let's the weeds grow taller in the front yard, it doesn't bother her.
She'll pull them out by the roots when they're ready to go.
My mother knows what's worth fighting and fighting for.

How does one romanticize
a love completely digitalized?
Hands never held,
but grasping nevertheless.
It'd be a lie to say I never lied
but you, you used me
to fantasize about a life
you wished you possessed.
How many sunrises spent me?
Never in reality...
It was almost midnight
at my place
as you spoke to me of high IQs
and all the girls that loved you,
and how you wished I
wasn't so far away.
I was on a train to your country.
Although it'd been years, I thought you'd see me
We spoke on the phone
when I got there.
You said that you were "so busy"
I laughed and asked you, "seriously?"
our friends said,
"it's not just you, we swear."
I waited for you at the beach.
A group of us, looking at the sea,
then I felt something sprinkle
on my head.
Above me you were, familiar sight
I pursed my smile with all my might.
I wanted to run to you
but I waved instead.
We walked together out to the cliff
I asked to go farther, you weren't interested,
so I walked to the edge
by myself.
Looking out there at the bay
you grew up near, how strange?
I am here without
your help...
Two years later, I'm back again
It's a long story, involving my friends.
I have no hopes of seeing you
this time.
I have a little life here, there's places I go.
Things are familiar, people I know.
And you don't even cross my mind.
Then we all ended up
drinking and dancing at a club
when I saw your name
in yellow neon.
Tunnel vision closed in on the sign.
What is a love I can feel that's not mine?
I felt stuck,
though I'm the free one.
It wasn't real, all you said wasn't true
I loved a you that's not really you.
I suppose I should be grateful
you kept him from me.
And no matter how much I wish it away,
I still wish I could meet him someday.
Not you, not now,
someone different completely.
I wandered back out to the cliff
In my mind I thought it so dangerous.
Why do we make things bigger
than they are in real life?
My imagination built mountains.
It built a house that we lived in.
It's abandoned now,
but I still stop by.
This was once a sanctuary,
a place where the world was your stories.
Truth was whatever
you decided to show.
And now you're off in reality
I wonder if you tell them about me.
I know a you
they'll never know.

You can put many things into mini fridges
You can put mini fridges into many things
But you can't put mini fridges into mini things
**** you can put mini things into mini fridges

I beg of you
Show me subtle feeling
And I shall show you the inside of my heart
I beg of you to offer flavour
Placing taste buds on cigarette stained tongue
I beg of you
Remove smokey whiskey blues
Replacing with fresh spring water
As clear as my fear of losing you
I beg of you;
My love

Hi! This is about music so scroll on if you don't care.
I'm working on my debut album, Drama Kween, and decided to share some of the mini songs that will be in between subject changes throughout the album. They'll have simple instrumentals later on, but for right now are acapella. Give 'em a listen?
To Me
it's on soundcloud.com/iguessimbaileymartin/to-me
lyrics:
"Sometimes I talk to myself, sometimes I sing to myself.
Sometimes I talk about talking and singing to myself,
sometimes I sing about singing and talking to myself.
Sometimes I talk and sing about talking and singing about singing and talking to myself (to myself)."
The Hippie Song
it's on soundcloud.com/iguessimbaileymartin/the-hippie-song
lyrics:
"No one says lice and no one says gay, but your modesty and life you better throw it away,
'cause in a world where the media
replaces scrapbooks
and hearts,
if you're livin' like a hippie they will tear you apart
if you're livin' like a hippie they will tear you apart
if I'm livin' like a hippie they will tear me apart
if I'm livin' like a hippie they will tear me apart
tear me apart
t-t-t-tear me apart!"
Goodbye
it's on soundcloud.com/iguessimbaileymartin/goodbye
lyrics:
"I'm so tired, I'm so tired.
Of feeling I have to cry.
I just wanna lay with you in my bedroom and watch the days go by.
But I'm so tired, tired of feeling shy.
And counting how many tears make up for a year.
Is this hello or goodbye?
Is this hello or goodbye?
I wanna know if this is the last time.
Is this hello or goodbye?
Well it's goodbye! Baby it's goodbye.
I was tired of the games and the pain and the lies so baby it's goodbye.
It's goodbye! Baby it's goodbye.
So I'm gonna rid you of my bedroom and get on with my life.
I'm so tired, I'm so tired.
Not gonna waste my time!
So I'm gonna rid you of my bedroom and get on with my life."

I saw the gust of winter
Walks a billowing shadow across the field
Unmasking all covers of a happy summer
Whispering a once cold secret untold.
The dire wolf leashed under a leafless tree
Warns the old wise moon for omen
Has she come to betray me for a visit?
Or, steal me a kiss of vengeance.
Skin as pale as snow
Flowing in a cosmos of abyss
Thought ocean devours everything
Flesh with rocks can't rise above.
Has justice been this early winter?
Knocking on every door
Warranting about Summer 1990
Of a wrath under a sycamore tree.
Three wise men under the stars
A girl dances with the corns
Happy feet can't help but wander
Leading her to where daddy is.
Safe on these arms of forever
Carry me over where home is
Lit the light up unveils
Two shadows under the stars.
Seeing through a thick fiber
A nameless fear of silence
Not even a single drop of needle
Till her breath has faded.

Abandonment comes in many forms
I like to abandon ideas like people abandon me
Seemingly without cause and with no intent to return

The sarcasm you hear is the pain I feel
I'm struggling to find something real
Feeling surrounded by the hate
My life is always up for debate

What do you wanna bet
That I can climb that tree
Before you catch that bee?
What do you wanna bet
That you can be cooler
If you'd listen to me?
What do you wanna bet
That everything is perfect
Within our mini mile radius?
What do you wanna bet
That a laugh is better
Than gloom?
