"decisiveness" poems
to my darling who feels she's not: our separation is mere illusion. truly, your pain strikes me as i write this; your sensations of abandonment, and the decisiveness they have caused, bleed from my skin into the fibers of my clothes. i am no longer clean. i do not feel pure. to my severed arm and shortened tendons: destruction is merely another side of life. out of disappearance comes all things- without space, there would be nothing to contain us, nothing to allow and enfold our beings' spirits, and they would sputter and cease like my love's flame. i am no longer yours. i do not feel full. to the farthest star that my eyes can see: your light reaches me- i glimpse you! in the perceived emptiness between us there is no distance to be found; around us exists the infinite potential for further connection and deeper growth in closeness. i am no longer alone. i do not feel sorrow.

separation is just an illusion
Partly darkened and part in light A time when the stars and sun shared the sky Bear witness to two behemoths wielding might Impending clash foreseen to go awry Two trains of thoughts charging from opposite ends Each bearing their own solid ideals Their flags that flew with conflicting brands Convictions they carry on beaten, weary wheels Almost an eternity, the time is soon Seconds lasted before they finally would meet Feeling of dread like the cloud covered moon With war cries of whistles, they would greet No possible way that they could miss War waged in steeled wills and forged metals Anticipate the moment, their couplings would kiss Unleashing a barrage of predestined reprisals Sheer destruction as they ate into each other All in tow haphazardly derailed A clash made of brute strength and power A result of when decisiveness had failed All was motionless save for the light of day The two lay dead; spent currencies in coal Fire and smoke had emerged from the fray Signifying that the two have met their goal Their cargo now freed, engaging in petty skirmish Lunging and wrestling as they fought for dominance Determination to overwhelm; never to languish Jousting fists fueled by pent-up vengeance Almost at end this long drawn battle Much like a storm to be patiently ridden out When the last of the debris should settle Then would be lifted the dusty veil of doubt The sun has now risen revealing the aftermath Shedding light on the devastation incurred Dark thoughts possess the most potent of wraths But nothing could beat the muscle of the written word Looking back I've realised the harm I've caused Found great solace in the dark words I've governed Life still hurls; it can never be paused Just dust yourself off for you're better off enlightened

Collision Course (III)
Partly darkened and part in light A time when the stars and sun shared the sky Bear witness to two behemoths wielding might Impending clash foreseen to go awry Two trains of thoughts charging from opposite ends Each bearing their own solid ideals Their flags that flew with conflicting brands Convictions they carry on beaten, weary wheels Almost an eternity, the time is soon Seconds lasted before they finally would meet Feeling of dread like the cloud covered moon With war cries of whistles, they would greet No possible way that they could miss War waged in steeled wills and forged metals Anticipate the moment, their couplings would kiss Unleashing a barrage of predestined reprisals Sheer destruction as they ate into each other All in tow haphazardly derailed A clash made of brute strength and power A result of when decisiveness had failed All was motionless save for the light of day The two lay dead; spent currencies in coal Fire and smoke had emerged from the fray Signifying that the two have met their goal Their cargo now freed, engaging in petty skirmish Lunging and wrestling as they fought for dominance Determination to overwhelm; never to languish Jousting fists fueled by pent-up vengeance Almost at end this long drawn battle Much like a storm to be patiently ridden out When the last of the debris should settle Then would be lifted the dusty veil of doubt The sun has now risen revealing the aftermath Shedding light on the devastation incurred Dark thoughts possess the most potent of wraths But nothing could beat the muscle of the written word Looking back I've realised the harm I've caused Found great solace in the dark words I've governed Life still hurls; it can never be paused Just dust yourself off for you're better off enlightened

I have ability to switch style even under pressure Focused concentration, I am with tenacious unpredictability And yet fail to admit mistakes even resist as always Laced with external distractibility, I am What a world......Give me strength. I have ' killer instincts' to move mountains even driven to pinnacle with passion Making things happen as always, I am even I am, less anxious in decisiveness And yet do things my own way rushing the poor fellow to frail Impatience won't disappear with quietness and shyness What a world.....Give me strength. I step forth in dignity for low anxiety even with meticulousness Decisiveness for reality, I am with sterner stuff in slippery control And yet unable to manage time with a hog on spotlight Drenched in my own outbursts, I am What a world......Give me strength. Proud of my strength of friendliness even with positive openness The power to carry on with persuasiveness even I am, yes I am in assertiveness My strength that never dies in the face of motivation And yet my ears are too weak to comprehend with sound of ********** What a world......Give me strength. Let me be weak to be strong and strong I am in weakness With passion for sweetness in bitterness And this is real in steel The contrast and the conflict That steers in my way of long ago And this reality in mirage Gives me the courage to rise above pain What a world.....Give me strength.

What a World...Give Me Strength
I was young when my brother had an accident By a rushing car appeared in an incident Eyes in Tears thought of just a moment Our life changed oh such a disorient Forget all our differences and arguments We prayed for days asked for lenience Do we have a goal in life except to be pleasant? Time goes by as we are inadvertent In shock we find ourselves always hesitant Unable to decide in which must be decisiveness Wonder why our mind is mostly turbulence How do we decide the path of correctness? Just turn your head around and prepare for afterlife Instead of wasting time in the temporal life Ask God for continuous Blessing As you’ll never know who is messing Always remember you are the one whom is living It’s in your hands and always your decision

Live for afterlife
Somewhere, in some unknown corner of this world, A mother cries in agony, and is almost about to heave a sigh of relief As out comes her little baby, into the world, outside of the one that has been Nine months of wait, finally over, and now comes a new being, an offspring She lies back on her bed, trying to catch her breath, wiping sweat off her brow And just as she thinks it’s all fine, the doctor hands her the baby – a little girl A daughter; and she is in shock looking at her, cursing the gods in their heavens As a little pink crumpled face cries out for warmth, that she doesn’t want to give All the dreams, hopes and aspirations fly right out the window And nightmares come along just as quick to replace them As she sees her past flash before her eyes, as her daughter’s future The torture from the family, their helplessness as she grew up Dreading the marriage, yet awaiting desperately to get her married off Get rid of the burden that she seemed to be, tie it on someone else’s head Saving up an entire lifetime’s worth of wealth, and giving it all away Just so she’s accepted by another family, a wife, a daughter-in-law, a mother to be To bear sons to her husband, as a show of her devotion, her only duty that could be And then her mind clears of all these thoughts, and all that remains is stillness A clarity that brings along with it decisiveness from somewhere deep within And as she takes the little girl in her hands, eyes barely open She twists her neck, until the baby cries no more, and the hands flail no more And the stillness is all around, not just in her mind anymore, but also in the room And quiet hidden tears are all that flow down her cheeks, no remorse But a twisted sense of victory – a bud that got nipped even before blooming

I was broken, I was severely unafraid Nothing mattered anymore Because I had already lost My family and my friends And my depression was kicking in too hard I wasn't trying, I wasn't caring enough Love was never enough Though there it was in overwhelming amounts I never belonged to anyone No one ever lived for me And life was being suffocated from me That emptiness within me was bruising me How polite, how unapologetic How fast, hurdling down, my decisiveness I started tumbling down, without fear Shameless, without nerves or apathy I was brilliant in the limelight But behind the shadows I was being swallowed By anonymity and solitary confinement The darkness was strangling me I left everything I was, to reach everything I thought I could be Didn't I get everything I wanted? Yeah, I thought this was the plan But I became someone else Other desires became attached to me My heart changed, my mind bent, my thoughts evolved I lost focus, in sight of love and desire I never bothered to figure What it meant to be happy, within me The work was tedious, but only on the exterior No time allotted to the dwindling interior I was broken, I was severely unafraid Nothing mattered anymore I could be starving a thousand times more I've been disillusioned many times more by banquets of contempt

Banquets of Contempt
A sudden flash, lightning's cuneiform write, on  the plack of pitch dark sky; like a truth derived from lives * Sudden  insights, in human nature strike unawares, if you look around, some times even casual look reveals. * Likes and dislikes drive human lives, and civilizations thrives or bite dust, on their merit, they are like leaves sprouting on a plant an act, result of the land it stands and nutrients it receives, what complex laws work behind it! how would you capture the essence of this? --meaning is elusive even if you peel the onion, for long, human nature defies all descernable patterns. * Pharova Khufu of Egypt, wallowing in riches, all his life (in the stories of past) was in love with his two boats, more than any other thing, (one made of acecea and other from cider) king, aimed  his longing's sharp point at this two wooden objects, (a guy who had no problem in focusing bless him, he deserves credit for that one decisiveness) * And when he died, they thought these boats were the things he would miss more than his wives, what else could be possible? they carefully laid to rest with him,  these two beloveds- Khufu with two lovely boats; his love objects, his wish was honored * **Imagine a man of immense wealth which eventually reduced to  some wood, the size of two boats, (the symbol of futility human life represents,) trveling the great beyond, with his legs, one each on a boat.**                 *

What Pharova Khufu's boats suggest to us.
I have been bright, hovering for weeks with the edges of ovals I so narrowly believed to be bicycle wheels, discovering good friends in places right under the windowsill, freshening up the roses in the pots I'd forgotten about on the back porch. and there's you, a dream perhaps, a sliver of pecan pie left over from the holidays but increasingly fresh I'd like to twinge the tremors in your body that make you hum and satiate pulsing bodies in flat, parallel lines of desire and decisiveness I'd like to be the twisting ivy on the brimming edges of tentative youth, to scale your walls and snuggle in the safety of wonderment and lack of knowing, any better. I'd like to make the bluebirds sing with throats of slim-cut rubies, to have contentment and a battle born, hand held, period of time in which I can enjoy a piece of dessert, well deserved

I can walk for miles, miles, miles
Decisiveness. Swift and unfaltering. steady strokes unite ink and creamy paper to herald this new day, new life, anew. I collect things- mostly words written and unspoken they hold a certain enchantment and I gather them into my arms, my heart like a greedy child on seashell spun shores and I hope to keep them here- eternal and youthful like the first memory of fireworks and hot caramel or glowing sea waves I stack them on shelves in between pages in secret corners even whispering to the wind and in between the sheets I keep things and steal some things like sunshine, rain, a kiss because I wanted to maybe you wanted me too Desire is fleeting, ephemeral and often fickle but it is decisive in the heat of the moment sharp as a knife, and it cuts through my thoughts again and again until maybe just until- I run out of pretty little words to collect leaving me no choice but to sing it out loud the first three words I took I took from a single glance a secret gaze from an electric dance that we started along time ago one that seems to go on and on like the pounding rhythm of erratic heartbeats. All of it means so little, all of it means everything or nothing. And until that day comes let me lie here alone but me and the stars to spin those pretty little words feel their cadence on my tongue with my eyes closed lie here and wait until the last sound of your name escapes me And the enchantment complete.

Enchantment
we are merely children that continue growing. loneliness is a struggle but so is engulfment. to plunge into commitment with hopes for each day to rise with opportunity and excitement, and for each day to prove more time wasted, brings upon an emotional sickness known as heart ache. a lover is to not just love, but to follow and to lead. however my love is wandering, lost. trapped and wondering, is this love enough? again my heart yearns for something else than what it's given, yet is so afraid to remove the safety of what it already has to venture anew, where a different kind of loneliness awaits. feeling hopeless in a hopeful time rendering gifts of promise useless I admit I'm not pure, that I find moments where I'm not only the prey but hunting, and the cycle of my torment is guided by my own self. for lack of decisiveness, and abundance of indecision.

atmosphere of indulgence
To the self-harmers, self-haters, the loathers, the detesters, Our homes were the hiding places of things sharp, pointy and jagged. Things to take away the pain with more pain, the fear with control, the uncertainty with decisiveness.   Because we did decide, to take ourselves apart. Bit by bit. Like their mutilating stares weren’t enough. Like their toxic words didn’t burn away our innocence. *What would you know you’re ******** You’re so fat a cow couldn’t compete with you. Hey there *** yeah run to mommy. Hey **** did daddy not love you enough?* But how could they know he isn’t ******** his mind is a beauty you could never compete with. And that fat girl hasn’t eaten a bite of solid food in eight days, because the word beautiful has never known how to never stick to her skin. And the *** doesn’t have a mommy to run to, she died fighting a battle he would never wish upon anyone, not even you. And the **** only wants to feel normal, hoping she will if only she can carve out enough of the bits that feel different. But if normal is you then normal is the worst thing in this world. Normal is a bully hiding their truth behind venom. Casting out into this world all their hatred, all their pain. Not caring where it lands. Whom it bruises. Whom it kills. The numbers are rising. Higher than a mountain we can ever climb up to. There are children on our streets. We don’t look twice. Our phones are outdated. We worry. What if our self isn’t enough. Maybe these shiny coins will get us our attention. Maybe then we will be enough. Because the person staring back from the mirror is a friend who never was, a stranger too familiar, perhaps a ghost with our truths dangling from the tips of its claws. Worry about yourself, because we will learn to be enough. We already learnt to sleep on the streets. Under the skies, near blue seas. They said we wouldn’t make it. But look at us succeed. We are already enough. More so. So much more.

Everything became interchangeable. Words of wisdom, which weren't welcoming, were washed willingly. Only now knowing that the definition of a "wash" is a sensitivity. An appropriate metaphor would have been a description of an undertow; hands over feet, because a cartwheel is superfluous   underwater. It's interchangeable. The fact that the white whale can signify the tepid tactic of the once sought suitable soul. It's tangible. The decisiveness of another party. A warm body to lay beside. Another to lift the veil. To speak love and hate with full confidence. Understanding that love and hate is reachable. Aloof to the fact that you are the love and hate. It's manageable. Although, ******* teeth has become customary, the prospect of ******* face" still lingers. It's only until the lack of movement with fingers... It's the lack of ******* But, it's manageable? It's interchangeable. It's knowing that what was sought after was temporary, that a sealed kiss will eventually lead to an opened envelope. Then after time has taken its course, you will be inside of another, and another will be inside of her, but the difference isn't the physicality. It's the emotion that kills you.

Stop and Yield
••• "on some days, I love you more than others," an early morning uh oh IROLO (instantly regretted out loud observation), of the potentially ruinous kind, spoken with malice towards none, *and obviously, no forethought,* firmly but modestly muttered over the modestly rumpled courtroom battlefield of sheets, newsprint, mugs and Bocelli on low smockingly, (a slow spreading smile of mock), she turns her gaze upon the presumed guilty, querulous, soon-to-be-ruined ruminator (me), and asks with disdainful derisive decisiveness is your first cuppa too hot darling? has your uncommon sense of non-sense been burnt? t'is true I reply, I feel the burn! for am I not sworn to tell the whole heated truth and nothing but? my love for you is simply a mathematical additive, progression series every new day I love you is forever a mighty mite more than the prior, a smudged smidge of a penciled line, taller than the higher higher notated upon ancient yesterday's doorpost ergo, ip so factoid, and therefore, by definition on some days I love you more than others     ••• p.s. never have conversations like this in the presence of within-reach newspapers, for they be easy rolled and revised into fearsome weaponry, suitably for handy smacking"*

on some days, I love you more than others
Sometimes it's okay to be wrong. It's okay to not be The smartest, The funniest, The most well-adjusted. It's okay to be Broken, Hurt, Sad. Because it's not about how you are now But about where you're going to go next. Life is about Nothing and everything; Decisiveness and indecision; Stagnating and flying. It's about how everything is possible. Everything. So if you're Broken, Sad, Or hurt, You can be Fixed, Happy, Whole. It might not be easy. There might be days you think you walked down the wrong path. But you didn't. Because every path is the right path. Because every path is the path you need to be on To be here. To be you. And you are pretty special. More than anything, You are special to me.

i am in love with you in the worst way creeping thoughts that tell me it's over loom in crevices and corners no matter how bright the sun shines every moment i'd like a hand in mine, it's yours i picture and then it's gone, one ****** digit at a time, til i'm left with nothing but a dripping stump i write you with depth and decisiveness, but you want none of it and for some reason, i am not deterred i will hang from spanish moss and bide my time amongst cicadas as leaves fall and seasons crawl on, i will wait until these bugs breathe life into this earth again and again and again this cannot be it, because i love you, even if it's in the worst way, i just wish that you could see how big this love is without my wearisome words

in every moment a world is created a novel is written in the mind then burned as excess memory every bitterness is sweet every taste is reassessed to match the perfect vowel with the perfect tempo held in the hand and squeezed until there's nothing but pulp every black becomes white and every white becomes fever and any gray is obliterated, sifted, recreated, grown to full maturity until it dies from its own heart exploding with decisiveness and guilt and sorrow and whatever word is stronger than euphoria in every moment, a life is saved, then lost, then saved again.

passion
*I lay, of my own volition, in a space meant for her: a confined and achromatic scene. My hands, malodorous, muddy and splintered, leisurely rest on my chest, free from labor machines. Here I rest, hackneyed and discouraged in a pitifully human attempt to simulate death I curse my virtue; it chastises back as it mourns the curious exploitation of my health. It was meant to last only a minute, as sorrow chains my putrid despair in place. Yet I, to this day, cannot begin to explain how the darkness manifested itself a face. I attempted to strike a movement but remained still as the daemon began to smile. The plan was to endure without oxygen for seconds, yet the creature stayed my conscience for a while. In a surprising and trepid consternation, I find myself in service to mendicancy. The creature, a devil with venetian red oculi, salivates at its newest and prized delicacy. I cry at the fleeting mastery of my faculty, yet the tears remain inattentive and departed. Time blesses the creature with a dominant sentence as reality registers a dialog that I had started. “Where is my daughter? I demand to know.” The creature’s smile grows ever wider. He then takes the form of the stuffed turtle toy that used to sleep right beside her. The creature, in a droning and unmelodious voice, utters a perplexing, yet commanding noise:* “ATIV ARETLA NI MAN ES ED OLEF” *Frightened yet discouraged, I aim to find the sense in the puzzling command the creature produced. “She’s been missing for days! I need to know where she is!” The beast speaks again, letting its anger loose:* “FELO DE SE NAM IN ALTERA VITA!!” *Suddenly, albeit boundlessly, the stillness was lifted, and my structure was free from this tenebrous stead. I raise myself and clasp at the summit’s precipice after having danced with a beast in this wooden bed. The vacant coffin remained pristine, fitted with natural calico cotton lining. The devil you fear the most is the one you create and mine emerged with impeccable timing. The creature’s malevolent ballad persistently tattles as The Lapse rebroadcasts the “truth” it wanted to utter. It had told me, “Become a felon of oneself, and thine own life shall be traded for another.” I refuse to concur with the creature’s decisiveness as my unyielding faith will ensure my daughter’s return. Her weighty and boundless absence must cease and lead to the terminus of my inexhaustible concern.*

Like a wild-bush, Frenzied on growing, My empirical designation, Of self-implosion Falls like Berlin walls, And Stalin statues, I wonder if the night can see like me, Or if the daunting blue figurines of my watch, Dance like the dozy white flakes of a cold winter storm, In the midsts of battle we learn decisiveness and impending insanity, Summer heat brings showers of agony and glimpses of pleasure, Like fleeing from some unearthed Hell we forged ourselves in, The Earth she moans to the dark strands of nowhere, "Please take me home." She cries

Decisiveness
there must be an infinite space beside you, because in my unboundedness, i found my place at your side. right there in the crook of your arm, i fit perfectly, as if a spoon that is firmly held in place at the corner of a bowl, as if the very hollow around you was meant exactly for me. i never believed in destiny, for i am a firm advocate of choice, of free will. but somehow, with me snuggled close to your heart, i can somehow believe i am fated to choose you. they would ask where my decisiveness comes from, where my certainty about you is rooted on, and i would look up and ask the stars the same question. perhaps it’s in the curls of your mane that i loved to rustle with my fingers, or your hands that can engulf mine so easily, or your arms that can envelope my being, or your eyes that know what i need, or your lips that whisper endearments so sweet. i really can’t say, except that i know. i know in my heart that i chose you, that i value the choices i make, and i value you as amongst my most prized decisions. for j.e. 111114

Sometimes we are a foggy day a brindled mist that hangs like a beaded curtain across the doorway of the altered bikers from down the street and walking through us requires a machete of caution and silence and a flashlight of sixty-percent honesty Sometimes we are a Thanksgiving break a respite from the weight of responsibility and a monster dustbunny of anticipation that tumbles from beneath the bed requiring a broom of clarity and Potter-esque frenzy and a damp paper towel of decisiveness. Sometimes we are a banana Spring-green on the precipice of perfection only to tumble into the ravine of only good for banana bread or compost a sliceable bite of tropical gratitude and a sticky sweet batter of hostage taking. Sometimes, not often enough, I reflect upon the void you fill which I never imagined existed until it was filled like concrete between flagstones Grand Canyons made plateaus by a surprise and a sigh and a homecoming.

He drew designs of passion on my naked flesh with his fingertips the rythym slow and winding delicately, pensively around the tightly wound delicate-est parts of me. It was as if he were tracing every line, every beauty every imperfection that was my essence in physicality, and on occasion he looked deep into my eyes for further permissions to which I could not answer held hostage by his touch and my indelicate wanting. The bottom of my lip curled up in a tooth nip constrained the torrernt of love words that threatened to pour from my mouth, breath doing its best to find regulation and all I wanted was to be lost in His adoring admiration floating anywhere in his abyss contented just to stare at his unorthodox beauty, fashioned by his strength and decisiveness and above all the way his soul knew mine. It was a separation unbearable made more so, by the powerful burning longing ignited by his feathery touch. caught somewhere between sweet Nirvana and torturous Hades;  not sure which toe was dipped in which?  These were fleeting thoughts that brought me through my confusion and closer to the clarity of madness. Eyes now intent on discovering him, devouing him with each twist and turn of his strong limbs. my fingertips begining to free themselves from thier trance, reach hesitantly when finally touched its destination a gasping pleasure realsed its self from his throat as i slowly realise my touch equally burning my own design trails of longing fire. He threatened to lose control of, breathing love and fire passion as the lines of desire's designs brought fourth an achictectural beauty that ochestrated prisimic baptismal fire that no other could have pervaded;  and the words written in the burning flesh had no name just symbols, traced over and over again still not enough to capture meaning. It was all we had but it was enough to sign our love endless to the ages of ages. some say there is a word that comes so close though many more words are missing, forgotten but still felt penultimate erotismiagapea the unity of all things designed to be craved by love.

these few presidents wring disaster from decisiveness like they're squeezing tar from a sponge. three heads of state and not a single solution except the one that dissolves whatever it touches.                  billy the kid, did what he did and he                  died. billy the kid, did what he did                  and he died. billy the kid did what                  he died. billy the kid did what he                  did and he died.                                     nothing                  to                  help                  before                  he                  left

Why?
Our lips sealed, a kiss The airport commotion The notion of distance The motions separating The oceans disengaged Impeding progressions Enlightened lightening The fading phone calls Evicted complications Bouncing frequencies I float in dreams a high Sandwiched decisiveness The bubbled head pangs The battered heart hang My littered sight fanged Banged and wrung A declined mass rolling Angling insanity hurts Fighting gyrating posterity

Fighting Posterity
Aspirations become crushed by life, As the will to succeed hits a brick wall. Hopelessness transpires through devastation, Emerging a fractured outlook about fate. When the dream becomes broken, Promise is always an option. By climbing out of that hole, Hope is a possible task. If greatness can’t be fully restored, Alternatives can be proclaimed with honor. Whatever course destiny’s tale will tell, Success can win through decisiveness.
