Aimée
Did you think we'd
Love you less
When you put your flaws on display?

As if they could ever
Be comparable
To even one of the reasons we stay?

They are dust on diamonds
One day they will see what you see and that is the day you cry for joy :)
Expect good things
the moment breathes
Your fear abandoned
the darkness leaves

When least expected
the current calls
Tomorrow waiting
—beyond the falls

(Dreamsleep: December, 2022)
for me everything is about love
not love earthly
star love
planetary love
big bold  beautiful love
dangerous love
for awhile i forgot about that
got pinned down
thinking your trespasses were mine
kept me boundlessly bound
meandering around
in the unfound
realizing want is supposed to mean,
not get,
i keep asking,
someday the One I ask ,
Delivers
arriving with his banner
faithful and true
to that mount where I belong
Sigh on!
I forgive all you all, really I do
if you had the courage
you would realise this too
Geckoed
blindly , was hope a thing then?
inspiration, faith , or reason?
That thick dense canopy
filtering out
illuminating warmth of the inexhaustible,
unextinguishable light.
Where even truth stumbled among debris
fallen , careless, strewn and broken branches,
an age old path buried beneath,
poisonous weeds, rising untrained from dank, soiled bases.
blindly
on the ground
in the radioactive puddles
flames
I found
starlight in decay
in frenetic play
grasping
holding on tight
with all it's might
let go of the fight
he can find you in no light
everything is gonna be alright
stars shining
earth spinning
wheels turning
there is no other
I found my love
my destiny and goal for my soul
i guess they don't know what they are doing
and the answer his son would put forth is forgive them
they don't know what they are doing because they lack faith
how to break the deadlock?
what God speaks is True
finest energy
has golden sparks of dancing light
sparkling in what seems to be empty space
scent of rose
tells me
lies don't matter
who do the liars confuse?
ultimately they burden themselves
they damaged me
but those wounds are surface
I show that surface
what is inside
is made of
solid
Gold
cannot be bought or sold
though it does exit the bag of bones I inhabit
when I leave
call it
my key to the kingdom
I thought the women foolish, sad their husbands and musicians made them look so uninformed and petty minded.
One question if nothing happened
why was the 'mental mary' pushed back before she spoke up?
the knots guilty were knot aware of an incident that they gossipped about for years, suddenly its a figment of her imagination
knot bothered,
again, who are they trying to convince?
themselves?
i don't know why I cry
I'm not concerned about me,
I'm concerned about your lack of concern for yourselves, your family,  for lack of knowledge of the Divine , for truth, justice and how far you have all fallen from that.
I'm crying for all my fallen hereos
I thought the women let themselves down because they looked petty to some, I know they were lied too, so I feel sorry for them, that the men made them look like fools. I feel sorry for humanity and how men behave in the culture of violence that surrounded them from birth, but I rebuke also their unsound behaviours their deceits and lies, their violence 'in the open' . They must know deep down how weak a man is, when he treats a female like that. How weak for a group of men, shows how
