kiss that soft part of me
the one i used to hide underneath
scales of armour covering
my delicate heart, ruby red
my eyes have been known to shed
i leak tears like nightmares poke fears
i keep near the villains to feel dear
cheer for me and tell me you love me
tell me that this was all for nothing
tell me that this was just bluffing
tell me, tell me
i am no longer buying the fake dreams you are selling, i see, i see
uncovering all the hidden truths
the unspoken rules that you have
i understand the games you bet
i will win this turn of the hand

you tell me who's being the *****
you tell me
you tell me why you make me have to feel its my fault
you tell me why the blame is never on you
tell me
tell me why?
why is it such a terrifying feeling inside your bones
that your wrong and you hurt someone
you make me try to act like the villain
but I'm not
I didn't do ******* anything
so tell me
you tell me
why its always me?

when did God climb the clouds
and come back carrying a knife?
When did the Father of mercy
start counting children as collateral,
weighing their bodies
against borders and flags?
You speak of a God of love
yet the ground drinks blood
and the sky remains clean.
What scripture taught Him
to watch hospitals burn
and call it destiny?
What holiness
requires infants to die screaming
while angels keep their wings folded?
Do not ask me to kneel
before a God
who permits ******
and calls it “His will.”
Do not sell me prayers
washed in children’s blood.
If your God needs graves
to prove His power,
then He is no God of mine.
A true God would shatter thrones,
not bless them.
A true God would break weapons,
not sanctify them.
A true God would stand
between the child and the bomb.
So let your God answer this
Where were You?
Because silence,
when the innocent are slaughtered,
is not holiness.
It is complicity.
And if heaven still refuses to speak,
then I will stand on this black earth
and testify against it.

is that a period?
no, better put one there.
a comma next, right here?
no, that's a period.
why are there dashes
between 'nine-inches-tall'?
oh, that's a smudge.

she was waiting in the lounge
draped in shades of red and gray
dazzling soon-to-be-knots
and her waters had no fall
i found her watching the coy
when she saw me we weren't shy
fights around us and a quick escape
scrapes on meridians and cokes to chase
if that was to be the end
well we were never surer
knocking on wood
and the doors of strangers
knowing what you know you knew
when i knew you know what i do
had i known you later
or sooner
what a regret
every time
did those quarters
make a dollar?
enough to bus
to the idea and back
that i died a few times
and that you died a few times
and that we are ghosts
or you are
or i'm living out a fantasy
that you're still here
but you are
and that idea has changed
the way iron patinas
into a red from rust
shades of knowing how you know me
is water that douses me with the
harrowing fantasy
that i'm not here really
and when i turn to ask you
"did i die back there somewhere?"
you'll say
"you still owe taxes to the IRS!"

Maybe in the bottom of the sea,
there's a creature called love
of you and me - a giant wild beast.
And it sleeps and sleeps
through centuries in peace
in hope I'd wake it someday
and somehow set it free.
How do I tell it, Dorothy?
That you dream of stars it has
never seen.

Tell me of your delight
The wisp of wind
That catches your hair
Breezy enough to sense
The winds direction
To which you set your sails
Moving through glass water
Unwilling to break
Tell me of your delight
In the shell of a snail
Digging up its squishy life
For just you alone
Thumbing through
In a smile and a jar of joy
Enough to break a mother's heart
With every win and loss
On your way to manhood
Tell me of your delight
As you swing in the air
Legs kicking as branches do
When the air picks you up
No longer weighing you down
All cares wash through
The space of regrets
And deposit themselves
As pebbles on the shore
Where your feet will land
Tell me of your delight
Where the garden snake
Attempts to outwit
Your stride in the grass
As you quietly watch
With patience of a lifetime
That marches ahead in this stillness
That is between the distance
Where now is forever
In your hand you swoop up
A life trying to escape yours
Gleeful are you as you set
The creature free once more
Tell me of your delight
As you see the rays of a day
Shine on every stone
And drop of rain
Washing rivers deleting cares
Surpassing a mother's gloom
Her soup of ingredients
Marinated longer than your
Innocence wants to keep birthing
It will be her death that it takes
To be released and unburdened
So you can breathe again this day
Heart open to drown all sorrows
Brand new as the dew

weeping willow’s silent wail ...
misting eyes beseech
painful memories
I should have begged her to stay ...
mourning most mornings

Unto Him I am glued
my King of Prussia.
oxytocin- dopamine dilated
his pupils inside his blue green
as I entered Him, eons ago,
and never came out
He left but returned to my abode
for me or his Tequila.
I wanted to fall down crying beg him to take me with him to his heaven
Saving me from the hellish existence
But pain was greater then tears to convince HIM.
~~
Into his song YESTERDAY I merged
and with one voice we often sing it
from that time on and on.
I became his song his moon and stars.
Although our fame sleeps
as beauty rested in a glass coffin;
with one leap across the gap
chaos that one butcher
with medical ignorant lies
opened up and three
of us got evaporated.
With one song each in heart
we bridged that chasm.
In his art we thrive yet for long.
To Him to his heart of gold
I slowly walk to, his ancient bride.
Into our holy temple of forever,
straight to his heart and open arms
United in one single thought.
Our own Taj Majal
to reign we did plan to build.
Into mine eye pupils, grasping
all of his substance in
his light projecting all was received
My intergalactic time traveler.
Interchangeable we are.
In me he finds more than wisdom
he finds truth a true artist.
Our true love bittersweet.
Before Him I Joyfully crumble kneeling
As he embraces my swollen
teary eyes and merging me
Into to his heart and arms
I surrender grace, charm
and complete trust.
There!
In confining solitude
In the darkest of mine nights
My brightest sunny days
it's him I hear, love and seek.
I understand, worship
and adore him forever more
He's my true love! Luna tell Him!
That I love him the most.
~~~~~~
Mr. And Mrs Andrew
And Karijinbba.

Day waiting to tell me "Hi"

I'm talking fast
Breathing slow
Exiled from life
Why you left do not know
Your absence stabs like a knife
Because too much time on my hands
Don't go to church or the bar
Stare at the wall trying to understand
How I have made it this far
It bugs me you are fine on your own
I am only half getting burned
Tell me to hit you up on your phone
My messages go unreturned
My tongue itches with irritation
Sentences I dare not say
Can't blame you for infuriation
I kissed you back that day
I suspected you'd never ring my cell
I'm wrapped around your finger
You put my heart through hell
Lasting loyalty lingers
Supportive of you no matter what
Liberated or in chains
Too deep down in this rut
To evict from my brain
All I know
I am tired
Yearning to rise above
Adoration has expired
Why can't my love?

Never kiss and tell our love,
for all we know, our friends would want some.
We should only realize,
our love shouldn't be televised.
So keep it close, right between our eyes.
We both act shy, but that's alright.
Despite what shows outside, things are more important inside.
So let's not play kiss and tell.

The forbidden words,
Never to be spoken aloud
Tumbled out of my mouth
From the moment we met
And I let them.

But I hate the way you go and never tell me that you always love me by your side.

Everyone says
"Do whatever makes you happy"
Don't mention the cost of it though
You do not know the price until your choices
Come collect and tell you what you owe
In moments you don't realize
Consequences of what you do
Only after it's too late
You can see what would have been best for you
Some decisions too expensive
Until you get the bill you won't know
By then you can't go back and choose
Different directions to go
So bear in mind that every action
And mistake is a tattoo
No matter how costly our regrets
Every one we can never undo

You left something out....
I was not mistaken...
You left something out...
How do you think I'm supposed to feel?
You left something out....
I want you to know I am not okay with this...
In essence, you lied to me...
You omitted the truth...
I like this job, but not getting paid for the holiday's **** big time!
You left something out...
How am I supposed to deal with this?
The pay is great....you left something out...
Why didn't you tell me while working this full time job,
that I would not get paid for Christmas, Thanksgiving, and all the other holidays I am accustomed to getting paid for...
YOU LEFT SOMETHING OUT...BIG TIME!

thought of you
i spill art of sorrows and lust for death
