Autumn leaves But not her leaves Where she lies Perennial Beneath the ribs She roots her trees Deeper than the skies And deeper yet And deeper still Than the living chains Of freedom Perched upon the windowsill Her eyes tow wings Whose whispers sing The name of her reverie

She Dwells / Тя витае
Солта е (гора) иглолистна Целогодишната истина Чиито очи цветовете Ти не сменят ..*, Salt is… (a forest) coniferous Truth perennial Whose eyes don’t ever shed your colors

Сезони на Солта / Seasons of The Salt
Have you ever stumbled upon a flower,        next to her, you were seated;        a gaze you never gave,        and time passed by just like that. She didn't bloom as you expected her to be,        shining under the sun's rays,        a bud that didn't open -- yet        existing yet not appealing -- she was just about to bloom. Have you ever stumbled upon a flower,        as the sun was setting, you stood up;        "please wait," she was begging        yet you never loved her so you left. The shy flower, yes it's tiny        no one would pick her, no one was there;        twenty feet, her perfume travelled;        it was her time to flourish at night. You never loved that flower,        neither picked her petals nor sniffed its scent;        she ended up saying "I love you,"        with lost worth, is she the unlucky one? She was a tender perennial, you unlucky one.

Cestrum nocturnum
you felt like an eternity beating hearts desperate need an hour long conversation- perennial why... can’t I remember the sound of your voice anymore? you made us into mayflies, love an eternity looped into one day you were so skilled at that twisting time to suit you and i was always here thinking that it just wasn’t our time but our time was forever but our time is nothing

perennial mayflies
I  will sing, For all the quiet and everyone that is blind, I will live, To shout in front and not be mute behind, And If I die, remember everything I heard and see, remember most of all, with youth by my side, That I died free

Part 1: Perennial
you shook my status as mere mortal,as you opened up Satan's portal, achieve true greatness true power, the omnipotent godliness, begging the end when the end should begin different yet accepted by the black sheep, and the wolf, pit against the weak archetypal situation bleak,beware of what you dream for,entrails spread across the floor you'll pray for death, when they all find out, the wicked darkness from the dragons mouth now I live in the borderlands,blood and **** within the sand,Blood of every man PERSONAL DEMONS BECOME COLLECTIVE CONSCIOUSNESS. irreverent irrelevance.on the fence we've lost the keys to the kingdom. we must stop running in place, be the change you want day dreams, must be a reality. sanity chosen inside the minds of the insane being lost a perennial classic. you want them to see the little movie in your head Christ posse, blue birds, and the doors is painted red how do your dreams match up against this created reality you exist in now the city of the dead, the cities have all burned down

A Lost Perennial Classic
Help, Lord; for the godly has ceased in me; For the faithful frail part of me has died And this world’s corruption eats at my Will My Will to Love, my tongue that’s silent Our lips are our own: but where is my Divinity? It does not reach for the stars But is hidden in the shadow of my errors I am oppressed by myself, my bad habits And while I sigh for the needy, I am powerless To help, to redeem this fate The Words of the Lord of Love are pure But purified now I am not, I am lost Help, Lord; for the humble and the meek Need a new kind of energy, strength, hope When the vilest men are exalted, the most compassionate Suffer the unbearable isolation of poverty How long wilt thou forget me, Lord of Love? How long wilt thou hide thy face from me? I have been looking for you everywhere In everyone, but only see glimmers now Having sorrow in my heart daily Consider and hear me, O Lord my cherished God.

Psalm 12
Dear America, Do not call my generation stupid. We were the first group of kids to learn a computer. Think about that society: A group of kids learned this intricate machine. Yes, I'm talking about the O.G. Apples with the green type where you had to save with a floppy disk and if you put a magnet to the screen it went purple forever. Yes those, same kids grew up and created everything you see before you now. Everyday. Do not call my generation ignorant. In a short time span of years, as children, we learned about oral relations with interns and terrorist attacks. From Clinton's impeachment to the World Trade Centers/Pentagon/Flight93 Somerset. As children we learned; emphasis on the children part. Our minds grew knowledgeable of a world at hand long before society gave us credit. We grew up. Do not call my generation lazy. When we were sixteen and just received our license, gas rose to the highest it had ever been in our country's history. We got underpaid and  disrespected jobs: cleaning up bathrooms and serving your foot-longs. The ability to travel on our own, it was our new found freedom. Like the early travelers roaming new found lands: Our wings were spread. Do not call my generation weak. We are the same group of people who entered college or the workforce with the worst economic fall since the Great Depression. You ask, "What did it do to you?" Buried us in more and more debt until it consumed our life. But, we became enlightened. We majestically thrived in the chaotic times by finding out who we are, what we are capable of and that life will take us our journeys before we even see it coming. The light still shines even when you are buried the deepest. It does not matter what you throw at us next. We will rise and conquer. It's the world's hidden secret. I'm proud to live in this time. I hope you are too. Never giving up is our morale. Respectfully, THE PERENNIAL MILLENNIALS. cc: (No HashTag Necessary)
