We played with words
and peddled euphemisms,
as we hid behind veils.

We had reality
twisted and bent.
We chided and spat
into the winds
of coercing gales.

A white lie is still a lie!
behind trivial reasoning
there always hides
an out right lie

strut your stuff, shut me out and then judge me
corrupted pathways of stuff meant to begrudge me
that anti-matter just doesn't matter
that catastrophic energy will soon surely shatter

i can't jump fast to be the last in line
heart pumps fast with the blast in mind
clock thumps past battles passed in time
blood clumps caste with a mass decline

strut your stuff, but hush it when you're near me
disrupted masters get mad but then fear me
the negative ions will be eaten alive
that's hazardous material where the beaten survive
loosely based on the new biology proven by Dr. Bruce Lipton...i know many of the members here are Indian, and have believed it before it was proven....negatively charged energy kills and positively charged energy heals...science saved my life and medicine is not science anymore...it goes much deeper, and especially for me...i found that i had to give up grudges to survive and create my own positive energy...the way it dispels negativity is amazing...i have experimented with science since i was a kid, but this has opened a literal new non material world

You can sit around
and hope that time
solves the puzzle,
or you can put
yourself back together.

Whether a comma, or colon:
Punctuation slows my rolling
I need no period. When I end
no Capitalization when I begin
Rulelessly I flow my art
  Not a single!
Exclamation mark
Are you not the one
Who'll know?
Where a question mark
No longer goes

Warp the structure
Bend the lines
Put in repeat
Let emotion unwind
Make yourself
Your poetry's the best
Be your own ruler
Pass your own test

Take your own road
Where ever it leads
Lover or hater
It's all poetry!

Hay
No matter who you are
You have my deepest respect!

Vanity
All is vanity
The meanings of passion
The aesthetic expression
The lines we draw and stay within
Even love is beyond intent
Vanity transcends
Flowing from our pens
And so we breathe again
Sunrise
tells me that I’m alive
Sunset reminds me
that I lived

There is beauty
in these depths.

But you’d have
to drown
to see it.
