"aquire" poems
Dancing on the lifeline, Flying through the dirt, Mixing into puddles, Resembling the sky... Everything is nothing. Nothing is everything. The truth is but a lie Not looked in the eye. The spoiled goods we buy! Dancing on the lifeline, Spinning dervish, spin. Aquire all the knowledge you seek, Find it is within. Poets are the prophets To the souls of those that read. The magick that is in the verses Always plants a seed To enlightenment, the need. We are all Dancing on the lineline, Connected by the threads, That comprise the ribbons Of the thoughts within our heads. Everything for which we thirst Is already in our chalice. We only need to drink of it, But need to keep the balance... Beware the one called valiant. Never fear that victor, Who has never seen a challange, Who has been given everything On a silver platter. Listen to the hope inside. Follow it, as you lead. As you cast your spells And spin your webs, take heed. Dancing on your lifeline, Holding onto what is true. Only when you care for others, Will you know they care for you.

Dancing on the Lifeline
The demon in me It feeds on ************ rituals *********** ****** day-dreams It searches For prey Finds Sappy men Who can't aquire Someone their age The demon pounces and recieves It flaunts it's Power It's pride in the Wrongness And when The real me Returns She is A little Less alive And a little More evil.

Demonic Tendencies
All the once upon a time stories that end in happily ever after have the flawless handsome Prince charming who meets the sweetest princess or young maiden who becomes a princess after they marry (typically approximately 12 to 18 hours or so after they meet usually because the sweet young lady was rescued by the Prince because she was singing randomly and dancing around with woodland animals who do her laundry and she fell off of a tower or was attacked by some lady who literally has no job but spends her entire life just being evil for the sake of being evil and yet never starves to death despite the fact that her evil plots never actually allow her to aquire money or food of any sort.) The girl is always polite Everyone loves her She usually has a waistline tinier than a flowerstem And she sees the good in everyone She is also gorgeous 100% of the time Well I am NOT that girl I can't alwaye be polite and perfect I can't even be pretty There are more people that hate me than there are people who can even tolerate me I'm not the likable easy going type I don't have a three inch waist (mainly because that is completely insane) I can't find a way to like every person I'm the jealous ugly stepsister Anastasia in Cinderella I'm the wicked witch in the wizard of Oz I'm the wolf in the three little pigs I'm the hag in snow white and the seven dwarves I'm not the princess in the story But fortunately, I don't need to be because life is not a fairytale And you don't need to be prince charming Hell, you don't even need to be anything like the lists I make about what my dream guy should be like Because really, since when do I know what I actually want? I certainly am always wrong about what I need So here's the deal You love me for me, be loyal, care about me because of my soul first and my looks having nothing to do with it, you give me eternity, And I promise you the same. I don't need you to catch me when I fall off a tower That doesn't really happen much I need you to catch the little pieces of me when I fall apart because the emotions were all too much I don't need a happily ever after And you don't need to be prince charming Because I am not a princess Repost if you are not a princess either Please comment I love to read interpretations of my work and really any other thoughts you may have! :)

Though my outward appearance may seem somewhat complex -In this Hard-wired soul It is the machinery that's run by electricity that generates creativity that would vex Einstein himself -But it is all relative to this hard-wired soul Because it was through the wire that I calculated the desire or rather my need to aquire the programming need to love you -But it wasn't that simple for this weary hard-wired soul Because I am based upon logic so when I try to complete what I had started the numbers just overrun like a leaky faucet -You just may be too much for this hard-wired soul And on one day I twitched, skipped and even began to glitch just from the thought of loving you Because while the assembly may be perfect for this computerized hermit I still cant calculate if the chances are worth it, so maybe I should just hit reset and accept the regret of not having the correct programming for you yet -But you ought not sleep on this hard-wired soul So I beep and I peep, and you reply with a positive tweet the answer this old machine always wanted to hear I could have cried if a computer ever tried because my data began to skip and glide a most unusual stride Because she said yes. But my circuits are fried!

Whimsical worldchyme stew, (strangely written)
slightest of her sight was such it's gravity's might wholly my heart shook such was that compelling look left me utterly sired tangled like a tainted wire heart crumbling feet stumbling blind by her aura's light such was it's bright my heart melodiously sings trapped by her angelic wings like she came from pretty moon for me was she a boon her rolling eyes something they meant for I was hypnotized by her saccharin scent wore exquisite crimson dress that showered roses with zest I knew one thing for sure this love was veritably pure no dream no fantasy this was to aquire you my only devoted cause..

We shall speak, and by speaking loudly and fervently enough, we shall be heard. We shall be heard, and by being heard, we will be dismissed as the lost denizens of a failing society. We shall be dismissed, and by being dismissed, we shall not disappear quietly into the night as our forerunners have done. We shall be branded "Communists" & "Traitors", and in doing so we shall aquire the attentions of those we aim to educate. We shall not be silenced, and by refusing to be marginalized into a portion of "freaks and outcasts", we shall be known. We shall not be paid off or coerced into "negotiations", and by maintaining unity, we shall be outlawed. We shall not accept the scorn of those whose power seems unassailable, and in so doing, we shall be feared. We shall not accept platitudes and half measures as answers to our grievances, and in so doing, we will be persecuted. We shall not accept a world where our worth as human beings is measured by GDP, and in doing so, we will become that which we seek. We shall not accept that "Some people are better than others", rather, we KNOW that liberty is born from knowledge. We shall speak, and by speaking, be heard, and by being heard, we will effect change, and by effecting change, we will be victorious.

We Shall Speak
Don't take this away from me This is all I've ever dreamed Your words are tasteless toxic And they're deteriorating me. Everything you speak is venom Crush my teeth trying not to listen I'm spinning in my attempts But still your words get in. Trying to adapt to your cruel intentions... no hope of escape. My big heart pulls me back in Dying daily is my fate. How do you not care? Where do you aquire such a skill? How can you not hear the cry of my people. Weak and groveling... Turn my groveling into gold.

Im sitting in the sun, soaking up all the sounds of all the other number ones running around all over the ground Tires spinning Motors pound'n Restlessly questless on a mission to aquire worthless possesions and proffessions that educate and fascilitate a brainwashed race.

Pen to paper; Ink, and leaves, and blue, and pink, sinking and seeping through fiber as I attempt to repent and release what my mind holds captive. I used to trip on acid and wonder why my fingerprints curved in such a pattern, and for days after, I'd wanna jump from skyscrapers just to get the answer faster. I'm flattered as hell to have you waking up with me, but I'd rather know exactly how it's gonna be in an hour, so I read horoscopes religiously, and hope they give me a hint as to where the **** I should be going with my life. We've all got a factory price. The lowest marked dollar sign of attention, or respect, or *** that we'll accept just to make us feel as if we are worth the energy it takes for us to walk around on this rotting earth. Therefore, we all reherse a bunch of charming one liners, with hopes that we'll aquire someone who will finally save us from our past.

I dream of life in a fairy tale My mother is the queen Family without lacking any self esteem I am the princess My life is oh so grand Every man on the planet Has asked me for my hand Dinner is always a feast My corridor larger than peasants homes Every day I sit on my **** Upon my magnificent throne I aquire jesters for entertainment Fulfillment at the tip of every finger But sometimes when I am by myself I notice there is nothing inwards Never have I been hurt Tangents into questions of if I know love I have never held a tender embrace Hardly a single hug No one has ever let me down So I have never grown All I do is whatever I would like But I am all alone

I am a loving animal Despite what people may think A lot of people don't like me I wish they would rethink I'm just as loyal as a dog I will always be by your side Even when you are bored I'll keep you occupied Sometimes I like to be alone It's not really a crime I still liked to be hugged Just not all the time Yes I may scratch Just like dogs may bite It's how I protect myself I'm sorry if I gave you a fright I like to be well groomed Don't worry I can do it I'm independent You don't have to commit I will bring you presents But I can only afford mice I just want to make you happy By doing something nice When I am happy I will let you know I'll purr on your lap It will make you glow I tend to have a crazy half hour I like dashing around Did I mention my meow? I make the cutest sound I'm easy to aquire I'm usually quite cheap Look in your local animal shelter We come in heaps I'm really quite cute And I need a good home So please don't leave me In this cage all alone I am a cat I will make the best pet Just like a beloved dog Can you give me a chance yet?

o.c.d plus poetry (level 1: petty)
Crazy A word I have always hated Am I insane? Should I be locked inside an asylum? Perhaps put on medication? Please do not patronize me by exploiting my insecurities in a condescending manner I told you where my soft spots were in confidence hoping you would understand Hoping you would speak with a sliver of sensitivity I'm regretting that now as you aquire a taste for the way it sounds in your mouth You save it for those moments where you really want to see me boil over The reason why I hate being referred to as crazy is because I am somewhat psychotic I am already scared of my own irrational behavior as it is I am terrified of my slipping grasp on reality I know I am crazy I don't need you to remind me

"You're Crazy"
I acquire New words Like Disharmony And Acrimony I acquire New thangs Like a car A house A Computer And more and more Till I am mired in them Sinking in the mess That I made That sustains My materiel goods I acquire New pain Bubbling And becoming As tumorous As the worse Cancer Desire is devastating And distracting I acquire New knowledge To cure this infection This obsession With things To the detriment Of human beings In wisdom The more I acquire The more I let go Trimming the leaves That were crowding me Pruning the trees Of this materiel disease Till I find the truth Of you and me And this relationship Between us and our humanity I acquire The heart of my art A soul shining force Of love And oddly enough The more I give The more I get It is an endless bag

I Aquire
you say you want to be beautiful like me someday but i can only hope to someday aquire a beauty as magnificent as yours; a smile that makes the room warm a laugh that turns the foulest of moods a comforting touch to let even the weakest know everything is going to be alright i want your carefree crazy moments and the times when you're so serious nothing can crack your facade i just want something more than for people to say i'm beautiful because what is that really...

you me
My breath somehow forsakes me It will not whisper your name My heart says I'm unworthy It cannot ignite this flame My soul cries out for recoginition But my lips won't let me smile Tempted by your heavenly beauty But captive, to denial My dreams, filled with your vision I dare not close my eyes Everytime you pass me by Another piece of me dies I am but a simple man And you, a goddess of desire A treasure meant to intice my soul That I shall never aquire How much longer must I suffer How long will my soul beseech Alas, I turn and walk away For you're simply out of reach

THE AQUILAM ANTHEM
I don't need more. They tell me I do. More likes, more money more friends too. Society thinks I'll be happy then, More clothes, more shoes More power, more men. But more often than not The more you aquire, The more you'll realize The more you desire.

Life is just an empty Dream, Things are not really what they seem full of ups and downs , after each fall in life there is a rise after each battle there is a price.... Life is full of stress and mess tension leads to sleeplessness ... Sometimes I sit down and ask myself when will all this madness cease where is free time where is peace ... In life you have to Aspire in order to be able to aquire the desire you admire do not retire always Refire

Life
I sit here, night after night, pouring myself into the cracks of history, bathing in obscure knowledge for the sake of trying to aquire some sort of superiority. Pointless. I've been burying myself in dusty scraps of information since I was a boy, and none of it has prepared me for you. You throw the beauty of an experience across my shoulders like a blanket and I shrug it off with mere facts and annotations, as if I'm afraid of what it would mean to accept the simplicity of you reaching out to me, not to explain but to share. The simple fact is that I withdrew from things a very long time ago and now I don't know how to come back. Always I must explain and analyze, pry up old tombstones thinking that if I can only find some kind of secret that I'd be able to step back into life. You told me that I hold too much back. You're right. I hold most everything back, bury it in the mass grave where I dumped the corpses of many selves. I don't know how to participate in life anymore, only to observe and calculate. And I'm afraid that if I can't figure out how to change that, it will strangle us.

Uncomfortable Realization
Down in the dirt. Beat to the ground. Hit after hit. Strike after strike. Bruises on and in me. Cuts deep and sharp. Get up I will. Stay down I can't. Things aquire my attendence. People need my presence. On my feet now. Steady myself. Stare it all down I must. Take it head on I do. More pain is sure to come. It's ok. It's what it takes. I'm not alone. I have been healed. So come on! Take your best shot!
