''*Well, I've been out walking I don't do that much talking these days These days These days I seem to think a lot About the things that I forgot to do for you And all the times I had the chance to... These days I'll sit on corner stones And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend Don't confront me with my failures I had not forgotten them*" These days by Jackson Browne [?] once again, mess with soulful perfection, the melancholic mood of music & word making me aching for the sweet sadness of loss for when one possessed a curvature of the smooth straight idyllic perfect love of friends, family & females, ascending into crescendo, then the blood letting of ego, vanity, incorrect priorities, the hurrying up to nowhere silly manhood, and Jackson bemoans "About the things that I forgot to do for you," begging please in a daily prayer, let me be confronted with my failures, my children, I have not forgotten them, though, they, I, nor you, and you too, have not forgiven me, nor I, myself *and all that is left is counting time in quarter tones, and even smaller, finer intervals, to make my punishment for all my mistakes, go slower, making my time taking more grievous painful*…

these days, counting time, in quarter tones
Like a box of crayons, We come in many shades, and in many different colors, Shades and skintones, we Precede one another. We have the reds, and the Oranges galore, and the rest of the colors, that we certainly do adore. We are like crayons, We start off as perfect, but When we're worned down, We are tattered and broken, We are still useful, although our essence had faded, We're used less and less, and We start to feel degraded, We are like these crayons, We are still around, but Our purpose becomes useless, as we are dwindling on down!!!

🖍 We are Crayons 🖍
Three chests heave- in the dark, Breathing throughout Each exhale. The soundscape adopts a sleepers tone; As the clock's       Tick tock, Counting each second; Becomes infinite- The midnight's metronome Insues...

This is, the Creator's Delight! The Sun through the rain opens a rainbow of color. Resounding within layers upon layers Vibrational tones & hues. Flowing continuously Into each Arc & Convenient. The seven flowering, whirling lights Spin, emanating their specific color Thousands upon thousands of tones & hues. Shinning outward Purple, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, and Blue. Standing together in harmony Each a Rising Sun A reflection of a reflection Repeated in countless rays Reaching from the rising base An outstretched  fan.    Etched up on my mind This memory  lingers long past sunset Within the fan's folds For here resides the mystery of Light. With Great understanding. Great wisdom, knowledge and joy. Love Arise!! In Unity!   The Creator's delight! In Unity! Love Arise!! With Great understanding. Great wisdom, knowledge and Joy. For here resides the mystery of Light. Within the fan's folds This memory  lingers long past sunset Etched upon my mind An outstretched  fan. Reaching from the rising base Repeated in countless rays A reflection of a reflection Each a rising sun Standing together in harmony Purple, Red, Orange, Yellow, Green  and Blue. Shinning outward Thousands upon thousands of tones & hues. Spin, emanating their specific color The seven flowering, whirling lights Into each  Arc & Convenient. Flowing continuously Vibrational tones & hues. Resounding within layers upon layers The Sun through the rain opens a rainbow of color. This is, the Creator's Delight!

Harmonic vibes from past tribes Come together to realign Our voice as one is magnified Raise your level from inside Trust in part with what can't be seen Feel supreme in alternating tones Eyes often closed to open minds Reap beliefs to form your own No words are needed to succeed Moving true free and deeply Yet synchronised numbers rhyme in kind

dial tones and ringing phones
Expressing my feelings for you, it worries me. How would you take it? Is it awkward? Are you annoyed or flattered? I don't need you to feel the same. I just need you to understand, what I say, feel, mean. Drenched in two tones. Both full of love.

Love
If I memorized all the tones that drifted in from a world of happiness we are no longer inhabitants of, the tones that drip ever so slowly filling our heart with love and filling our life with pain, the tone that ripples through every word I weigh on my tongue. all the tones that resonates in me as the wind passes through the places in my heart where your laughter once lived, all the tones that separate bird cry and bird song. I think I would find the song we lost, the song we sought that we could never hear in the noise of our shouts. And though our love is dead I would like this song to have a home to rest. As for our love, what is lost is probably lost for best.

All the tones
They are spying on us from the black ether eyes good enough to spot you from over there to over here and beyond What do they see behind this thick veil of flesh are they soul searching us or are they just curious enough with all that money to find nothing but me and you loving each other...

Satellites
I am a little note, A voiceless sound. Until I am embrace life, I shall stay bound. But lend me to an artist and then you shall see, How he'd mix me with his mayhem so a symphony I can be. But if I wished, then I could be a patriot's song; the anthem you people would sing, but that won't be for long. Because the next time you hear I'll be a melancholic tone, tearing your heart apart, as you stare at walls alone. Or I could be a joyous rhythm to make your soul smile, or to make you tap your feet and forget the world for a while. For I am just a note; you thoughts, I can vocalize. Deciphered only by the heart and not the brain of someone wise.

Music Musing
I thought God was calling me until I realized my phone was dead and my brain was just reverberating the ringtone that was ingrained in my head next to your name. I'm so ******* lame, because it was just the static along with the 100 miles with no signals. a you showed me what love was when I thought my savior had left me. I thought you were the one, darling.. only to have you smash my heart as much as my ******* phone screen. it's okay though, I have my network to back me up after you left me. so more more dial tones.

*ring ring* "hello, is it the light or the dark this time?"
Human beings need help. They can’t do it completely on their own. That’s why we spend some time calling out to people. But it just ***** when you keep calling out to those, Who have already hung up the phone.

Dial Tones
the mind possess the tempo of each poem that will grow the poet hums silently as the inks of harmony flow silence within its aging pages in an attic of hurt and true pain it sits all alone just an old notebook silent for too long trying to make sense of things hoping to unleash the unspoken thoughts pouring words onto paper Shhhhh !! ....I need silence.... I'm  asking the lines please allow ink from my pen to purge my emotions into its spaces

Ink Of Harmony
Don't fall in love with an artist. You'll come to love the way the beauty of the world reflects through their eyes in an awestruck childish glimmer and you won't remember how to see when they're gone. No one will love you like an artist can. They'll memorise all the tones of your skin and perfect the shades in every mound and valley and they'll only paint with black and white when you're gone.

To Love An Artist
You are all so fragile In more ways than one Made of glass and glued pieces. I'm unable speak certain words or in certain tones... And I am a stone Watching my every move Careful not to break you guys I am a stone in a glass world So heavy the burden of staying strong

Fragile
Your word that speaks the language of your soul. Your soul that hears the voice of your heart. Your heart that scream the name of your mind. Your mind that whispers the emotion of the lines. Your lines with notes and tones. And your tones that tune the feeling you have. The music you have. Through your soul into your heart and to your mind.
