You are not your identities,
Or what people tell you to be.
What you think you should be
Or how some may perceieve
You are everything in between
You are all your possibilities
The energy that keeps going.
Heart spilled out in ink
Eyes that gleam.
Eyes that bleed.
Words that make others see
& The words you never speak.
The love you bring
You are not just your story.
You exist between the seen
and the unseen..
You are not defined.
You cant be.
You are otherworldly.
And One day,
When i let someone inside,
I won’t be so torn if they leave.
For i know,
I will always have me, myself and I.
And they will know me better than any other guy.
Learn the lessons,
And get to steppin.
Life isnt found in over thinking, wishing and daydreaming.
Its found in living.

Before, I couldn’t see you
I would write about your eyes
Your smile
Your hair
All cliche, all flat
I couldn’t write
How I tried
Now I see you...
I see a green mantis
I see your freckled patina in that photo with the perfect light
I see you engaging the waiter in conversation
I see your long limbs loosely crossed
Cradling your herbal tea and segmenting your orange
I see you
The soft nape of your neck is in my dreams
I see you swimming ahead in the river,
I see your joy in that, and remember me needing to turn back
I see us crouched on the railway sleeper,
The last of the sun crossing us
While the washing up waits
The beer dries on our lips
We sit looking back at your home
I see the young and sexless person you told me about
Your nose in a book on the family holiday
I see the flicker of self-doubt
the slow rising tear that doesn’t spill over
being all things,
mother, worker, friend, lover
I see all the things you are not
that I projected onto you
Now I see you

The interpretation
Is determined
By the viewer
Steady your brush strokes
Choose your colours carefully
Groom the melody
Allow the bridge to connect us
The walls of paradise
Are but a creators prison
Snakes slither within
That which was meant
To keep evil out
The cosmos are but a picture
In our minds limited eye
We see from within
We believe our lies
As our projections
Redefine

..a cutting edge
I drown in it
Cause to see this gem
Then feel this slight
Is hard to right.

He hides one face
till there are two
then placed the lie
between two truths.
I'm higher than
the obvious.
I'm underneath
your point of view.
I'm higher than
the obvious.
I'm underneath
your point of view.
So insipid,
i will feign this,
indisposed to,
my reflection.
So insipid,
i will feign this,
indisposed to,
my reflection.
My reflection.
Myopia.
Myopia.
My expression.
My reflection.
Myopia.
Myopia.
My expression.
I'm underneath
your point of view.
I'm higher than
the obvious.

My reflection.

I look and i spread wide
Connection established, i am in your mind
I see lust and lonesome , i understand
I see jealousy and greed , i understand
I am sad. What have become of woman and man?
I don't back down in front of your mediocre thoughts
You lack of soul , you lack of trust
I open my eyes, and i rise
There is only one answer, no need to analyse
It is a vicious network, i am omniscient
I live and capture it, this pure moment
Spending my days aware, i am everywhere
I combine intangible layers
I am here , will you ever notice?

She's all Spring and Summer
Strength
and words of shelter
He's all maps and formlines
waits
in wings for Springtime
Take these tattered ghosts
from their trenches
ink-smeared, tethered tight
to the depth curve
Autumn only waits for the silent
ones sometimes.
"If their voices chase
out the brisk months,
quiet those windy wights
with a new song.
Autumn only waits for the silent
ones," she said.
In 3/4 time
the distances unwind
so swiftly
Afterburn of quiet nights
glows, fading.
He's all sovereign anger,
righteous, stiff
but twisting
She's all cavalier, now--
cat-quick through
projections
Past the legends,
rose our directions
Keyed to Winter's
dumb introversions
Years just spilling over the levee's
prescribed edge.
With their weathered ghosts
in the trenches,
tired-eyed, tethered tight
to the map's edge
Autumn only cares for the silent
ones some days.
