"cognito" poems
You see I am a silent Tao more words count less especially in this letter,
And when you're finished reading it you can laugh at me if it makes you feel any better.
Which is okay with me but what's not is that you all just get to keep on living,
Without me with you during all of your tomorrows so this note is my forgiving;
To my family and friends who have hurt me and treated me wrong...
But maybe no fault of yours but still it hurt and didn't even make me strong.
To all except my daughter who needs no forgiveness from me she's done to me nothing wrong,
Unlike I did to her her whole life but it's like I said...because I'm not very strong.
A coward really! But I'm not gay, a ****** or flamboyant,
It doesn't really matter though anyway I still am a dissapointment.
So I deserve your ridicule I'm no good to others and in my life it has shown,
I don't expect you to except me to forgive me or to even to condone...
This "Pipeline Boy" who in my youth which is how I was raised and I thought it was right,
From behind closed doors was I taught to be feminine and ladylike.
I tried to live my life straight marrying three lovely ladies..."myself" I tried to convert,
I helped to make a little girl (it was my crowning achievement in life) my marriages didn't work.
Attempting to ask for forgiveness I was rushed and sorta fell,
Falling fifty-five feet breaking twenty-one bones and on my way to hell.
Trying to forgive myself in front of God on my way down...
"I'm Still Falling!" were my very last thoughts just before my body hit the ground.
You see I've been treated like a ***** all my life by most these men,
I don't know if it's theirs or mine to own...this unforgivable sin.
So now I partake in the world's oldest profession,
Woman don't do what's done to me being a women's the only way for me to get to Heaven!
So now I am Robin Ashley and hope for as long as I am you'll be my friend,
Because It no longer feels right for me to go around living life just to pretend.
My last name stays the same so she won't feel I abandoned her again,
For she's the only one in this world that I do not want to offend.
So I'll live my life in cognito causing you all no consequence nor strife,
When you're apalled by this letter remember it's not yours-but it's "My" life!
I apologize for posting such an obscene 'b l of distaste,
I'm just so **** tired of living my life with a mask on my face.
I don't know how my family found me here on facebook I guess it really doesn't matter,
My name is now Robin Ashley Latham and its because it makes me less sadder!
Robin Ashley

lay your haiku down
In this pretty little haiku town
If you want
////////////
/////////////
Negroes used to be slaves
Cognito ergo sum
Whatever it is / it's comin down
/////////////
///////////////:
New Orleans memory
Freedom in the raw
Katrina winds and death came
////////
/////////
I am writing a poem
Look ! See !
The witch stirs the midnight *** of gold
////////
/////////
In a while naked kiss
For the moment let's love
Before it is one fucking mess
/////////
///////////
The tender moment lingers
The magic morsel eaten
The lonely human being on the broken street
/////////
/////////
Coo ! Coo ! Coo !
In the trees
It's a Beryl DOV !
////////
////////
I am he you want
He is he you need
We are friends !
/////
///////
You coo !
Haiku !
We all do !
////////
////////
She loves me !
I love her not !
Oh no ! I'm outta here

Why am i feeding my heart with doubts and dust
My falsefied ideas
Are my falsefied thoughts
I have to cut this flower of storm
I have to heal my false depiction of our world
For healing the love I want to die for

Alone in the crowd,
In that secluded corner.
Separate, except for all the other people.
We sat and shared a meal and the time for each other.
In the throng, buried in the silence of the noise.
It was good to be together
Apart from this world.
That, is love.
