Work and God Rule the Sod
At school I had trouble socializing, And still, The Owl, comes all too late? My formative years are spent deep within caves searching, Yet The Owl is never found there? The failures and sadness accumulate over time, Leaving The Owl traversing some other’s sky, I feel life slipping away each day, And still The Owl never manifests! Where is The Owl? Does it not come with time? Will cleverness induce her, perhaps woo her with rhyme? Quell restless mind, The Owl reforge me so I’m freed! Grant me your talons so that I may succeed! And still, The Owl, who never manifests, And still The Owl never manifests. I curl chalky fingers into travertine-grip, Aged ruin takes a hold, in my despair as I slip, Sans which The Owl never did manifest, To wit, sans The Owl, pounding sand as I jest, So what, The Owl, never did manifest? And still The Owl never manifests. Life without The Owl, was no life at all, No solemnity of greatness, a life of doltish pit-fall. And still The Owl never manifests. And still The Owl never manifests.

hero Vs villain......the world perception
You have again made your way in, Cold and beautiful. You are December, And I love you. Despite the seasonal celebration, I know you to be more. You are calm, You allow me to slow, To envelope the tranquility I crave. Your winds, December, though cold, Allow me to feel the life in my cheeks, And if I’m lucky, It too will bring the sweetness Of some distant firewood. I welcome your snow, December. So that I may sit wrapped in wool, By candlelight, The dog having nestled in as well, Watching the frozen rain accumulate On the branches of the birch and oak. Though I live in the city, I dream of loving you December, Even more – if I were in nature. Then I would feel closer to you, As a lover may feel, Or perhaps a mother to a child. I would know, I think, how to More fully know why I am in love With you. And being with you, December, Brings me to life.

What is death by chocolate? Chocolate you must accumulate, To amass your aggregate, Are Mars Bars better than a man? For chocolate you reach your hand, Is there enough chocolate in the land? Then there's housework in the world, Best keep your strength up, girls, Give those chocolate twirls a whirl, A moment on our lips, A lifetime on the hips, Just call us cuddly from now on! As on chocolate we ponder on, Death by chocolate, satisfaction!

DEATH BY CHOCOLATE!
Cigarettes and friends have so much in common Friends are cigarettes to skin The longer you hold them temptation grows within To smoke or watch others choke Cancer sticks, worse when ignited So many people smoke and are delighted To inhale the words of warning Strangers are sticks and stones their words never hurt With friends, this expression disappears As if the pain doesn't accumulate every fiscal year Running deep into your lungs, skin, and even the heart Friends can do as much as a cigarette We smoke our friends as if nothing is wrong and forget Until our lungs and heart collapse and fill up with regret   Quit cold turkey, suffer relapses try again later Anything to soak up this toxic flavor Friends or cigarettes? Your choice of flavor to savor

cigarette burns (revised)
At times can be seen melting together One into the other like a loving couple At times drifting as a lonely wanderer The clouds are there to imitate people It can't move on a journey on its own Without energy clouds are immovable It'll stay motionless if not wind blown Prodding to be productive like people Some are peacocks parading with flair Of damsels bosoms as white as marble Putting air pompous what do I care Show fame without shame like people Arms ready for war it's getting warm They gather warring forces for battle They march whip up a thunderstorm Rainclouds hungry for war like people Clouds can be big cloud can be small Can be rich prosperous can be poor Like people accumulate only to lose all To earn and loss and earn once more They orbit the earth decorated the sky Unaware of mortal affairs just rumble Prone to fallacy or vanity as you and I Can't help noticed clouds are like people

Clouds Are Like People
My mind is foggy Though I'm not groggy A mist emerges My peace it purges I see contradictions And feel convictions That inflict conflict And indict convicts So I accumulate cumulus clouds accordingly To fog my marshy mind more horribly My brain becomes a banshee And screams from my mist She shrieks an awful list Of everything wrong And everyone gone Her voice blasts through my cerebral stratus clouds And her voice echoes within the silent static crowd The clouds I gathered to block her wailing Are completely empty and always failing They look so absolutely grand and solid in the sky They're just water vapor that form droplets in my eyes

only you can understand the pain that i’ve been through. cause you’ve been forwards and backwards as many times as I And lying on our backs we arrive at the gates the gates of infinity the recipes written down and the past all is we’ve got to hold on to As I spiral into oblivion All I can think about is you As I drown in my eternal misery all I can remember Is that there was a time When I thought everything would be all right There was a time When the world didn’t seem like such a bad place When I didn’t notice all the corruption And when the eruptions commence I shall remember your name But as my grasp on the earth recedes please, Please don’t forget me As a pawn in your game I can’t safely say What I feel However I renounce the position of pawn And demand the position of queen For no one but me understands What’s been clearly bestowed in your hands Hidden away in eternity Lies the key to immortality And as your memories begin to accumulate Mine slowly starts to fade away But don’t worry my dear It’s all still very clear Forget me not, darling I’ll forget you, in the morning.

Gates of Infinity
Brought forth from a darkness so secure, baby boy relentless in the pursuit of education gazed upon the egg shell walls and sterile environment. Breathing as if it were natural. A construction of steel and concrete was the new cocoon , the window was an eye to a neoteric world. Bright white lights shone from within and a dull foreboding cloud loomed beyond the glass for the child to appreciate. Mother exhausted collapsed sighing. She is the antidote to all that is evil, she is the mother to the world. A usually stick-thin figure now distended but leisurely relaxing. Nursing her son as if it were natural. Swooning nurses swaddle infants, the original factory workers. Substantial days grafting, workhorses prancing throughout aseptic halls. The heroines of our world. A tribe appears from dust clouds, over the dunes, panting, half-alive. Heavenly Ethiope arriving in time for the world to begin. Tumescent in her ecclesiastic luminescence bearing a King destined to travel great distances primed for expulsion from the cimmerian safety of the womb. The seas of the earth accumulate before the small band of tall-standing creatures of exquisite anthropomorphism. Creatures from across the great unexplored continent at the centre of our world gathered in frenzied crowds. The Elephants marched in earth shattering herds, the lions of the Savannah put aside their differences and sat amongst the wild dogs of Ethiopia and the grévy's zebra, the dibatag stood and eagerly waited. Shrews, mice, gazelle, otters, cheetahs and giraffes all surrounded the tribe. Taking a silent vow and allowing stewardship to be passed along to a new generation. Every mother is the mother of the earth. Her earth, the personal concept of earth that only she may understand. Both children are connected by the planet they learn to walk upon. Connected by a thousand generations but connected nonetheless. They are one and the same. Each bought into a world in which they have no knowledge, each merely a slate eager to be scrawled upon by the elders of this fine rock.

Utopia I use to always stare at the sky, mostly at night. That's when you can see all of the stars. I'd go up in the roof and I'd bring a blanket along with a pillow. I'd just lay up there gazing, dreaming and above all wishing maybe I could be a star. As if I could fly to the universe; a child's dream that I still hold deep within my heart. What I lack is courage, braveness. My dream is not to bestow negativity upon the world, but to release boundless freedom. The story 'Utopia' is about a magical dimension that only exist in an area of dis-pear. An area where blackness feeds on itself; creating a hole so massive and so magnetic, not even light can escape its eternal fate. It is said that the only way into Utopia is through the galactic lane. It shall open to you in your deepest time of need. But don't be scared; after all it's only a myth. A myth that I myself have been intensively trying to accumulate. What's fact and what's real is only an illusion through the eyes of disbelief. A timeless puzzle that has no end. A scattered dream that's like a far off memory. A far off memory that's like a scattered dream. I want to align the pieces up; Yours and mine.

Utopia.
Because I could not draft for Ice, it did kindly draft for me. Does the Ice make you shiver? does it? Pay attention to the chill, the chill is the most shivering fear of all. Down, down, down into the darkness of the chill, Gently it goes - the chill, the trembling, the unsteady. A thawing, however hard it tries, Will always be Melting. Does the thawing make you shiver? does it? The big winter sings like a Sun is directly above the Tropic of Capricorn Now cosmic is just the thing, To get me wondering if the winter is mature. wooly glaciers sings like Iceburgs "Rushing water", said the glaciers, And "rushing water" then "rushing water" again. How happy is the frozen popsicle! Does the popsicle make you shiver? does it? The freezing that's really crystals, Above all others is the frost. Does the frost make you shiver? does it? Because I could not draft for Ice, it did kindly draft for me. Does the Ice make you shiver? does it? Because I could not draft for Ice, it did kindly draft for me. Ice, Ice, every where, Yet not a drop to draft. How happy is the cold surface! Down, down, down into the darkness of the surface, Gently it goes - the perfect, the gelid, the stone-cold. Pay attention to the floe, the floe is the most Dence ice mass of all. Floe, floe, every where, Yet not a drop to drift. The thawing is like a gentle voice, it tends to cause significantly. Does the thawing make you shiver? does it? The athletic game that's really zany, Above all others is the hockey. Pause to assist, like the hockey does. It does assist, it does draft, Should it also induct? Why would you think the snowfall is gradual? the snowfall is the most sudden downfall of all. Pause to last, like the snowfall does. It does last, it does accumulate, Should it also range? I saw the the antarctic installation of my generation destroyed, How I mourned the water. I don't like the fact that it, learned to reside before it knew how to flow. You can reside, you can flow, but can you supply? Because I could not draft for Ice, it did kindly draft for me. Does the Ice make you shiver? does it? Because I could not draft for Ice, it did kindly draft for me. Pause to draft, like the Ice does. Don't belive that the snowfall is small? the snowfall is big beyond belief. Never forget the braggy and large-scale snowfall. Pay attention to the cold, the cold is the most wintry respiratory disease of all. Are you upset by how springlike it is? Does it tear you apart to see the cold so frozen? I saw the the little demoralize of my generation destroyed, How I mourned the chill. Now small-scale is just the thing, To get me wondering if the chill is trivial. An iceman, however hard it tries, Will always be cunning. Are you upset by how adroit it is? Does it tear you apart to see the iceman so attractive? I saw the the Frozen excretion of my generation destroyed, How I mourned the water. Never forget the sleety and unchangeable water. Pay attention to the freeze, the freeze is the most Frozen fractals act of all. Does the freeze make you shiver? does it? Because I could not draft for Ice, they did kindly draft for me. Do Ice make you shiver? do they?

The undeniable sense of presence, seen through the realms of deception... Amidst the very capillaries strung infinitesimally throughout our bodies... Overwhelming at times, the very concept cripples our thoughts, Circling us back to seemingly endless questions - Endless roads without a point of reference, Leaving us standing in a dark crowded space searching for the unreachable light... Yet, the meaning behind the unseen presence forces the deluded mind to forge on - Stretching our morbid ideals even further... Leaving us the inhibited beings we possess... Still concluding at plebeian answers - Fitting, yet discouraging... The common capacity of our restraining thought process, leaves us almost hopeless to accumulate the information needed to fulfill our determining destination... But it is that feeling, That inkling sensation of the undeniable presence that keeps us searching - That gives us hope... And in that minute innovative state we dwell on what could be...

Undeniable Presence
Inside, I’m a house-cat with claws like Hugh Jackman- he’s been waiting on hold for an hour and a half. I’m a Ghost-type Pokemon wearing a powder blue LT jersey from a time when JT was all glamour shots. Today I’ll smoke a bowl next to my open window and then spend the entire night hoping my parents stay brainwashed by the Smart TV. How come all the advertisements on the side of each website I view are related to me in some way or form? Sometimes I have dreams about shadow monsters hanging out with my Cookie Monster doll. When I sob my father’s name, it responds by tickling my toes at the end of the bed and twisting my ******* when I fall back to sleep. My ears are like Batman’s pet bat, except in this world my eyes accumulate wax. I’m a house-cat hopped up on cat-nip and I can’t sleep so let me be.

In Another Life, Though... (Prompt-written Piece)
The glasses in my room accumulate, Unlike my self-worth. Is this just a game to you? I've loved you since the first Second, Minute, Hour, Day, My misery was gone, You made it go away. But you rub this wound harsher than anyone has rubbed one before. And I know you know I'm hurt, but you just treat me like a ***** I'm hurting and I know you know! You've made it abundantly clear. You've talked about it. It's practically written on the mirror, My eyes, My brain, My skin, My heart, But you still rub it in and it's breaking me apart.

WHISTLING AND SNIFFING SIMULTANEOUSLY Whistling and sniffing at the same time Can’t hold hands or rather get married United and collaborative in any case This duo may perhaps land into the life of some person The kind of man whose who acts, Performs duties of the shepherd on the flock. Like his initial master, He condemns wickedness, Goes against what is religiously evil, And exults the righteous. But he soon he craves for another pair of his robe For he does accumulate an avalanche of resources, His eyes are soon blinded. Would his robe evade being soiled? Co-operative sniffing and whistling, Can hatch into temptations to anybody, Even the half-human, half God Did he not get tested in the wilderness? Our big man opens his eyes one day, Finds himself campaigning and competing for, Trying to woo for citizens’ keys, Essentials for serving the people in a wider circle. Perhaps his whistling guides his path. Brings him in the companionship of Other servants of the people. Any devoted service present in that house really? Brotherly whistling and sniffing, May make one’s conscience slither backwards, Two or more steps into mud. He is now influential, A famous societal figure. His fat salary seconded with some allowances. Or even thirded with public developmental resources, Guarantees him total luxury. Is this not an opportunistic opportunist? Our Sniffer and whistler is contended, Complacent with his success. Jubilant with him servant is his ‘first Master ’ For keeping to the ‘sacred’ scriptures. The vehicle which carried him straight, One way to heaven gets crippled, It can’t manage to hit the road Like its American, British and Chinese counterparts, His sincere promise goes unfulfilled Unmet due to his pretentious pretence. His ‘second’ Master gets extremely mad. For loyalty and faithfulness denied. And furiously plucks him from glory. Simultaneous whistling and sniffing, The ‘initial’ heaven can’t simply put up with them. A wise servant of the masses A true leader should only whistle at a time, Sniff at a time. But not sniffing and whistling simultaneously.

I - WORDS LIKE PRISMS The crystal awaits the perfect slant of sun. The world turns just so and refracted light Hurls a color blaze against the wall. So it is when a long awaited word Forms on the lips of the wise. II - WORDS LIKE FLAX In the fire of conflict,       Words fall to the floor like mounds of charred flax. Red–faced saints gather clumps to themselves   To spin into finest thread for self-flattering raiment.    III - WORDS WITHOUT WORDS When pain burrows deep in the marrow Where words cannot assuage A gentle touch can bleed some out And channel hope back in. No words can spell a kind caress. IV - POISON WORDS Beware the charismatic Carrying a jar of poison pills! Cover your glass when he passes your way Or he’ll slip one in unawares. V - LAUGHING WORDS Absurdities and failures are the stuff of jokes. Long live non sequiturs and double entendres! We love a clumsy tumble into the drink As long as nobody drowns. VI - WORDS FOR BUILDING Of course you can! I place my total trust in you.        VII - WORD PAINTING Mister Frost's words never made a wood Or caused a harness bell to shake. Even so I’d travel many miles To see his imagined snow accumulate. VIII - THE GIFT My cat, Zoe, never says a word to me! He doesn't have the tongue or lips or larynx for it. He cannot fit his paws around a pen. His brain’s too small for metaphors. The gift belongs to us alone. To craft words to build or **** or heal. Forgive us Zoe for doing little with so much.

He cannot fit his paws around a pen. His brain’s too small for metaphors. The gift belongs to us alone. To craft words to build or **** or heal. Forgive us Zoe for doing little with so much.

I fill the void with hunger, I fill the void with getting lost with people by my side who’s faces i recognize but who’s souls i do not know. i fill the void with you. i fill the void with you because even though i know that we do not fit together like the perfect puzzle pieces that i wish we could be at least i’m not alone. i fill the void with consumption i fill the void with cigarettes i fill the void with inhale after inhale until my belly is full with the heaviest of thoughts and my nightmares circle around and around my skull until they come to rest exactly where you always said that i had that golden crown, the one that i could never see. i fill the void with madness i fill the void with pointless anger, seeping from my throat and drowning my tongue tasting bitter like a rotten lemon but the bitterness is better than tasting nothing at all and it sticks to my chapped lips like an old friend. i fill the void with endless calculations meticulously measuring my emptiness clinging onto my insides with a measuring stick and even though i measure with repetitive precision, it never measures up to my own highest standards and I fill the void by hurling insults at your face and even after you’ve closed the door, like a poignant period finally occurring at the end of a infinite infinite run on sentence. i continue to spit, spit fiery slurs that in reality fall more like water droplets that ultimately accumulate mid air and last a little while, but never outlast the darkness that is fiercely stuck to the soles of my shoes. And I breathe it back in and I breathe it back in just to feel a little bit more full. I fill the void with a look of contentment that i plaster on my face because i i can feel when you are looking i fill the void with confidence i fill the void with courage i fill the void by carrying fear across my chest and over my shoulder like i’m going into battle and never coming back. i fill the void with the hope that i can hope hard enough to fill myself up again but no matter how much i fill i can feel my insides draining faster than a bottomless kitchen sink. and regardless of how hard i clasp my hands against the gaping hole where i used to gently hold a relentless summer, i can feel that the coldest winter has begun to replace it. and i can almost still feel its warmth just like I used to when i used to.. when you used to say you could feel it too. my frigid fingers lock around my neck as i finally release that empty feeling that buries my deepest desires and i feel my wild beating beating heart finally submitting to resolve. and i realize that i can never be full. I realize that I will never be full. And so i float away like an abandoned ballon just like my mother said the others did and when i join them there they remind me that at least i’m not alone. and they tell me that perhaps in the end the point was not to be full anyway.

make sure when you decide to start threading your eyebrows or wearing lipstick, you're doing it because you think it makes you look pretty, not because you think it makes anyone else think so. try not to hate him, or anyone. he did a lot of awful things, and the best thing you can do for yourself is be better than what happened. sometimes, you don't need to reply to that text message. or that person. ever again. don't be everyone else's rock. find your rock. trust it. let it see you on your hard days instead of pretending not to have any. ask your parents how they're doing often. help them out and stick around for a little while. stop making cancer jokes around people who don't know or are comfortable with the fact that you are someone who makes cancer jokes. drink lots of water. you're allergic to crab. surprise! the stuff you accumulate will stop mattering, and you will want to know you are a good person on the inside in order to be happy. surround yourself with the right people, places, and things to ensure that. don't hug, kiss or sleep with anyone who you don't really want to. no matter what they say or who they are, if you don't feel like it, don't do it. you'll be fine. you always end up just fine.

dear younger me,
I am a compound of knowledge I accumulate stories of redemption to serve privilege. My existence is portioned for a little while. But i shall remain a kingdom not for this little while. All my reign I've always became ones rebound; elevator. Their legs knowth no grounds. I kept fearlessly hoping for much less Ain't lesser than a new day. And that was being brave anyway. Clear blue eyes of my inhabitants statued high at me. How courage and passion never stopped to be. The storyline I had is still now a motif of endurance. I gave up not, and show offered my perseverance. Away, from my bitter overwhelming insight. Wisdom is one great amigo, less than him I'm wiped. Done so good to every heart, though I remained a bad part. I opened all my doors to welcome each, keep my composure and listen to their preach. My grounds grew a seed out of that;  everyday.  Their eyes tortured me to believe in what they say. Direction sometimes looked clear on their paths, Never knew success starts on a dark start. I kept this in my sanctified upper room. The future is bright,  all flowers can bloom. And this is who I am; I'm a compound of knowledge.  I accumulate stories of redemption to serve privilege.

I Am
Failures my friend you all never leave me alone.___ You'all ever surround me, you'all are my very own.___ Always success betrays me and goes very high; ___ But you all console me when I grieve, when I sigh.___ One day I will accumulate all my failures together; ___ And out of it I'll make a big and strong ladder.___ So what if success has eluded me like some ghost.___ I will seize success the day it will matter the most.___
