#turbulent
Space grey minds – made complicated – These hotel mind-mansion muddled mud-bloods’ migraines, migrate through marble madness in a world where mirrors set a wide mould... Bouquet of the fitting brain, these silverfishes, odd souls, under glass mass, forge their separate ways - to avid void identities, paving stone by paving stone, thought by thought, scar by scar, screen by screen, smelling and selling our spirit... Like the gold smoke whispered clouds from her serious clown mouth... and the deep blue sky night turbulent feeling, We’re stone dragging dreamers, born gutter of the night, eyes always feeling... With roof rows of crimson, these car attached mannequins, Wake up where magic meets music - Strange sheep soft in the glitching hope hearts of these sugar plane crash cities.

Space Grey Migraines
Is thy unworthy of love Or is it merely fate’s desire? Boiled down from skies above, Temporary burning fires. A meteorite was falling On her lighted pure aura Her heart is crawling down, Though blends in with the aurora. Oh cold hearted souls Ignoble dreadful princes, Creatures of the underworld Here to squeeze your inner voices. Shall thou leave to be Or wait some time to see? Thy idealistic sense of greed, Manipulates the love in me.

Shakespearean Love
My Nan taught me a lot- but two lessons/phrases were uttered the most. “Don’t trust men, they only want one thing.” Problem solved Nanny, I’m as gay as they come and never gave one man that one thing. The other thing she’d often tell me was “We get two gifts in this world; people we love and sleep to save us from missing them when they’re gone.” The second lesson I think of often and relate to heavily. Both were true for my Nan; she deserved a better life.

Haiku / Senryu #21 - The Earth is.....
Standing on the shore of this big wide sea Looking at the horizon as far as the eyes can see All my life in front of me Little ripple waves Big foaming thunder storm I stand there facing all Shakingly cold watching lightning touch down under Standing there await other days of wonder while the storm has gone and the sun goes under.

Life
Psychological warfare been there been square ain't fair but you gotta run with it listen, i know it is hard to be different But we s'posed to be this the life that we livin livin, Are you really living? Are you really listening to the words i say take it day by day child And it ain't breezy to be bold to be the type that will speak up loud without the choke And it ain't easy to be the punch line that can't be told an absent cough preceding a milky **** Dearly departin' I'm not a g but i move how the move with a head full of smarts man(j.s.) Just remember that when your self care gets put on hold you leave your own fire out in the cold. And what a shame you're always learning opposed what you were told dear child don't let them steal the light emitting from your soul- you can't even put down the shovel to realize you diggin' yourself deep ina hole Before you heal it's gonna be a while I know it's gonna be a while child chin up child don't let em win protect yourself, love yourself and nurture what stirs within and man ignore the knocking- don't open the door in the fifth dimension you still rocking the crown that your ancestors wore but with it comes the blood sweat 'nd tears that they hoard don't get it twisted you're simply a new vessel that your family bore Don't explain anymore. watch your company mama they clouding up your aura too many people claiming to be woke whilst walkin' in they sleep sometimes all you gotta do is close your eyes to unmask the wolves disguised as sheep we livin' it up  but when the street lights be flashin' we dashin' we ain't be lookin' back to notice who is or isn't laggin' Ya son's been running the streets then runnin' the sheets with loose babies makin cursed babies Dear child Sometimes i try not to make the song cry Jay Z baby my own mama hate me But i don't sweat a drop cause I grew into the cream of the crop Destined to find the path that will lead my flesh to the top and with each day that passes by i'll laugh i'll cry i'll learn became the flame- now watch me burn AHG mama we made it! AHG you really hate it! you n your mans can get up, get down AHG wait ya'll way too faded Dear child and when the song starts to cry I don't hold back in fact i let it seep into your souls only my art can fill these holes despite ya'll moles im out

"I fear of having my turbulent waves crash down upon you. I fear of having my chaos entangle you in it’s mess. I fear my darkness enwrapping, engulfing and entrapping you in it’s depths. I fear of leaving you bewildered by the cryptic words that slip my tongue." - excerpt from an open letter

Prose: Fear of being a Burden
I feel the ebbing flow of venomous pain in my veins. I feel the thoughts like bullets to my brain, the emotions crashing down like turbulent waves. I see the scars rawer than before. So here I am, listening to music louder than before. Painting my heart with more colors than before, because it all hurts more than before.

More Than Before
Welcome, dear mysteries My one and only planet is here Here for no particular reason We are turbulent creatures Speckled with interesting features Each so similar Each so unique Our minds race with life The need to enjoy life The need to create life The need to help life The need to live We ebb and flow Our tides enclose our minds Thinking on two different sides of the same ocean Often not in sync Loud heads Yelling out Fear Anger Laughter Dreams We have a way A way of including anyone Yet excluding everyone And this means you, hopeful friends This means us.

Welcome
Guess you're gone again Watched you walk away; You always said breathe out then in; Know you'll be back someday. Same seeks same to find its home Not meant to chase the vogue Some souls are surely made to roam Rebel always chooses Rogue. And rebels need a reason We can’t abide bad laws; yet Against the heart there is no treason When standing for a Cause. Always loved unspoken things Like the thrill of open sky Every bird must find its wings To let go of fear and finally fly. Beneath your chest there beats a fire A powerful creature that needs to be free Weave these words into the pyre This is who you’re meant to be. And I refuse to be your cage, Won’t bind your feet or blind your soul Won’t consign you to dance on broken stage, ‘cos You’re meant for more than that role. Can’t hide a sky of stars in a box Can’t bottle a boundless tide, Can’t block nature behind black locks, Though I’m ashamed to say I’ve tried. If you must fade to find your grace Because you’re made of art, Just know you always have a place Wherever waits this heart. So, You’re always free to go, and Seek each untraveled road; Build your dream abode. Just please hear this song That I’ve been singing all along: I’ll always prove your fears were wrong, for Some things will not erode.

To love a Turbulent
Rhythmic incessant thuds, Drum rolls of flowing blood. They ringed in my ears, Welcomed my deepest fears. A fragility of the flesh, Shredding open with each new lash. A fortress of stones, bone-brittle, Shattering like an overflooded skull. Haemorrhage, haemorrhage How they gush, Bright red, lovesick Always in a rush. To think that each wall I built Only heightened the fall. Each scar was a sensation, I know they watched in awe. Of flesh and stone, They contest my throne. Non-consensual, but eventual.

Of Flesh and Stone
riding out the highs of life with manic ferocity until the minutiae of life drag you down into the depths of despair a pure loyalty like no other hidden by a dramatized emotional facade always there to bring you up, simultaneously bringing themselves down it's a slippery slope-- emotional support Oh, to be Mercutio-- is to be the eye of a hurricane, winding about a center --that may not be as stable as it seems

Before one asks if she could give love, One should first ask if she could accept love.

A Caveat
"Sonnets From a Conversation With a Friend XXIII " You theme you are the only one and crap A conscious **** excreting mindflex mobile Bone bag commercially impregnated With a semblance of life called existence Firmly pegged in this moments suffering Or relief of suffering called happiness By most swimmers in the we turbulent Through cause and calmed through cause to each their own Journey a needless needful thing of our Humanity etcetera moving So we must go no where or now here to Be the undiscovered country glowing Light forms solidifying matter forms Melting cyclic wonderment of what's this

Sonnets From a Conversation With a Friend XXIII
The sun kissed her skin to a passionate burn ******* all the energy from her yet she was able to float with the turbulent waves of that ocean as they complemented those of her heart

God, I wish you'd look at me like that. As if the sun was kissing the ocean, and the moon was embracing the stars. The only problem was that you were immersed in someone else. And I'm drowning in your eyes, as you're swimming away to the safety of the shore... Not the turbulent waves that surround me. (-DF-02/10/17-)

Drowning In Love
With all the world in constant motion, And new adventures to be embarked, Take your time and enjoy the moment, Breathe deep and then depart. When the waves of emotion make you anxious, Strong like turbulent winds among a stormy sea, Finding safe passage to calmer waters Sometimes takes determination, resilience and bravery.

To Calmer Waters
when the word **** resonates from the lips of any teacher, i cannot help but perceive how many students' heads fall downward, staring at their disquieted hands. i am wondering how many people are closing in on themselves, lips pressed together in thin lines, burying themselves six feet under into graves constructed however long ago. somewhere within the catastrophic enclosings of their minds, they are the people reminiscing violent robberies, not of television sets or radios, but of innocent souls. they are suffering from the post-traumatic stress of feeling  naked skin and cracked ribcages and heaving lungs never burn in the turbulent wildfires left behind in their burnt lives; a simple word is enough to have them reliving the mournful affair forming their empty chest. i glance around the room for students whose memory gnaws at their scarred skin, and the  problem is is that there are too many.
