Consideration
Are we really in complete, control of our heart? What about natural selection? True to its own necessities its as inescapable as mica in marble its influence uncoiling throughout our everyday existence. The emotional future decided by pheromones by unconscious laws of pattern, form and complexity. Decisions independent of what is fleeting and fashionable, based on actions without social polish. Natural selection in the age of lasers, terrifying hierarchies of secret signals. Layers of strangeness glinting and winking at us. Chemical commands by tide of electrical impulse to warm the heart. To end one love in favor of another. The choosing of one heart over another, as if, at my age, the situation demanded such sacrifice. To refocus the heart like the skipping of a pebble from one spot to another. Self inflicted sabotage.. dreadful gamble..

natural selection
A little cough, no worries, it will go away More irritable next day, worrisome by third Had better see a doc, but slept the last that night Scattered world wide, by planeloads, unrevealed, unknown Germinate in a week, spawn on breath, speech of death Revived ancient bug, mutated, drug resistant. Pandemics, long with us: Black Death was not the first Now global rapid spread, global rapid response Always ready, always surprised, always novel. The fit didn’t survive, the survivors, the fittest Catastrophic selection, months, not million years Emptied earth, cleaned, reclaimed, to be fought for, again.

Pandemic
Sitting in a circle itchy patchy cross legged hearing the feet passing the scratchy the whoosh brush of almost hands at our backs

Danger They wanted more For them to suffer To believe This isn't the world You can live in Stranger Spread words on them For them to bow To believe This is the world You could hope Ranger He survived enough For himself to strive To believe This is the only world He could prosper

Choices
Please do not play with my innocent emotions Please do not make me die before actual death Love is nothing, a set of wrong or right notions Please do not torture me just breath after breath Love values demand to bear all torture and pain But like a lover I do appreciate and understand What is taste of pleasure and what is just disdain My love has adopted your real color and brand You **** me with a sharp weapon I do not mind On every attack I feel pleasure and satisfaction I can see you clearly even if I see you being blind My love with your beauty is a perfect selection Col Muhammad Khalid Khan Copyright 2016 Golden Glow

SELECTION
That's what they say, never trust any type of genius like that. It's called the inheritance and selection. And this is gonna be better than this and better than that. Like we always do. Because we are so smart, dark and lovely. We always have fun and a good time tonight. No complaints, no exceptions and no warnings. We always stay safe and we always stay warm. There's everything to do with the inheritance and selection. Anonymous. 12/16/2015. ©2015 by Trevon S. Haywood.

IT'S ALL ABOUT ME
Taking a new direction I watched you burn I turned from you Natural selection exists even in love Especially in love In symbolism you were a dove But doves are but mortal They die, And olive branches drop from their beaks as they cease to fly Its funny. I always wanted a piece of you but never knew why. I think I knew I was too weak So I would take a section of your heart when we parted ways I still have it locked away to this day In the most personal of safes I think its why I still feel your kiss in the rain It doesn't stop the pain But it makes me feel again babe So im giving you thanks At your grave as you burn into pages And on the paper youve become Still as white as the dove you were I draw you a map to the piece of your heart I took Its in the spot of the piece of mine you still have You just have to look
