Texas: My Very Own Nap-ster Master

Four parts, woven together Uniting all universal truths What others do with it's powers Only the future will prove The first strand displays the world's true nature Destroying everything it creates We become unwanted children Who have learned to incorporate Killing in our communities Biting, grinding flesh and bone Swallowing with guilt free demeanors Only leaving foul-stenched excretions as evidence Second Strand speaks of our basic biological anxiety To deny the terror of death Imperatively born, emerging from nothing Given a name and consciousness Hopelessly abandoned from the beginning Only to be fated always with everlasting death Strand three We hide underneath the "Vital lie of the character" Pretend to be shining knights in armor Who will make us forget our Unconscious anxiousness of death We all work to attain prestige, money, and the Fleeting feel of immortality Worshiping Gods with clay feet And when our beliefs are attacked "Holy wars" becomes the pseudonym for Our immortality projects The last strand All the efforts we put into Making this Earth perfect By eliminating scapegoat "enemies" and "evil" deities We end up making everything filthy In the effort to make everything right and pure We turn the Earth's soil black and color the sky red We strived for utopias, making dystopians All these actions seem unconscious But it is not the animals nature or Evolutionary process It's just us trying to pretend We don't have perishable bodies; Trying to deny death

Your eyes, bringing despise, continue to pierce me With their glowing incompetence And fluttering instances of jealousy. Your thoughts continue to reach me With their condescending demeanors That strike with utter prosperity. Your hatred continues to elude me With its striking usage And power that proves deadly. Once, just once, I know you can only wish To wrap your hands around my neck And squeeze until my breath has been abolish'd. Once, just once, I know you can only pretend To plunge the pencil into my chest And apply pressure until my beating comes to an end. Once, just once, I know you want to violate me And, once, just once, I may allow Your reaching desires to overpower me Once, just once, I will see your anger As you wrap your hands around me and decree, "I'm only putting us out of our misery."

Misery
It lurks at the back of your consciousness. It dwells in the pit of your stomach. It is strong. Strong enough to exist - behind the facade of calm demeanors. Strong enough to swim against the currents of indoctrinated beliefs of righteousness. Strong enough to be the wrong amidst all rights. It is the speaker for the voiceless. It is the doer for the incapable. It is the strength for the weak. It is sweet escape for the trapped. Listen... It's there in the lull. When all is quiet, you hear it. Whispering, inciting, winning you over. It will take you over. It will steer the wheel. But only if you want it just as much.

Dark Passenger
*All the angels are asleep, Their shadow selves on the earth open their third eyes, In the hypnotizing light of the moon, You must learn to tiptoe between carefully crafted lies. And in the scarce everglow Of informality, we sail past a once safe territory, Trying to impose a new way of survival, Guided by a thin rope of our frail telepathy. On islands doomed with demons' names, We maneuver our demeanors on the peripheries of black holes, One slip of a condemned tongue, Is all it shall take to elicit an inevitable fall. Don't fall for the horizon in view, And never concede to promises made by Time, The angels could never wake, And then you'd forever tiptoe in this infernal night.* •●•

Tiptoe
*Arcadia, or what is now spliced of aeons' great Gates of gold that rust in hate Islands on grim sulfur lakes; I have no demeanors that wait They've left and gone away To the rise of demise and acid rain Where epidermis boils Quintessence abolished and spoiled; Grand scent of desiccant Miff's so indelicate Caveats and feats of nothing; No rise My apotheosis' hellish paradise*

Aeon Paradise
Frances Justine, with eyes of bella blue, with tipsy gait and freely-falling shambles of a step, half-awake, half-dreaming in the onset of a rush of seeping winds' complaints unto the painted walls of bleach. A phantom dressed in sighing silk, a glimmer-dress unbound, her fingers wrapped in lace and fragile trimmings of the earth; a sonic trembling synchronized with evening humming low, this tapping placed upon a table -- forests in the flow. Frances Justine, the pretty, the proud -- had relished these demeanors for a lady most in love; how liquid are her movements as she dances in the wait of gales that hope take her far, to continents away. Away, so far away, from this pertinent monsoon, her setting heart thus painted with the phases of the moon, it floats, but not for long, the sky's half-empty and half-full; there, Frances Justine darkly was just waiting to be whole.

Frances Justine.
Benign was yet another passer by to predisposed mentality But both secretly wished somewhere beneath their tempers, demeanors, and myths For the other to beg pardon for salvation at last; trading their ghosts and their pasts The men of social civilization, disconnected by strange colors and baffling arrays of advertized trash.. asking where’s the rest of the cash? So it may seem the wrath of industry, media, and projected reflections Make trial and test for the all of the rest, connect and digest. Such was the spoken scramble of this morning in particular. It was no more and certainly no less jovial than what has continually been the subjection of mister Hulton’s consciousness. Often he wondered to what degree of affect had he been lent these sharp-toothed thoughts. For within him a feeling of great unease would settle as his mornings waned ever onward. Hulton; a man, or so he is told, was painted grimly by the colours of intellectual, asocial, endomorphic (in a figurative sense), and partially blind in at least one eye.

Benign
I pour the wine, while you raise your cup until our bodies have had enough, that our spirit’s twist, wrung out dry, sexed and sated; shyly truth seeps outside of careless vessels, free once more - unable to collide, despite this ardor. Our thoughts clashed clandestine, while our demeanors docile. Your scowl, the bone beneath a smile our rose skin kisses, turning hostile. The quaff of a tongue, the taunting touch. Skin chenille, beneath blankets blush. Suddenly sensitive to the sounds of dawn, a trash truck groans, someone mows a lawn. Last nights dream bent around a now that’s gone. Time has stopped, but it still goes on and on. I’m up, you’re naked; Every morning maunders, over-medicated. Every house a story, every window, perspective my window is dark, theirs, a beverage, to fill a voyeurs empty cup with scornful slake, set to brew when strangers wake; having gone to bed not knowing each other, in the morning, woken as broken lovers.

Morning Malaise
favoring the limelight but all bets are off tonight build me a new empire based on your words be my mistake again or prove me wrong realize i am your loss i am an improvement over your usual catch unimpressive, bland they'll design a lie, just to entice your eye but i'm real when will this end? washing your placebos down with a conviction that they work is this the last cancelled reservation? don't dial in till you know your line play the boy for his voice he'll decode in his sleep preparing for the masses to carry your message to all till they become obsessed, too our love for the heiress to my heart grows complicated feelings that carry no reason jealous eyes manipulate corrupted and articulate demeanors that don't lack in style exactly what she wants she will have

can we live in cold corners where no one can see how short I have cut my hair we will have pillows that share our names we lay our heads to rest Im thinner than I have ever been and I love the way my bones stick out when you touch any part of me I curve and theres my spine like mountains in the middle of a flat plain We will have few clothes and rarely speak to anyone me and you will be just like this happier and sadder than we would have ever thought to miss you lay down after your long work hours or maybe we wont work we will just sit there quietly and we will kiss there sits an ashtray with a Buddha on that tiny coffee table we brought back with us from our previous life it stands on its brittle legs so strong the print on the wall behind it is our most valued vintage pattern who would have ever known we would have come to any decision I smile when I peek at it and close my eyes like a child who has been caught staring at forbidden things, with butterflies in my stomach at the feeling of something so new I love those flowers on that dress the one that makes the collar bone look like a stake in the tower of Notre Dame Gothic artistry like that my eyes cant deny you its so beautiful and your weak ankles and these strong features pale skin and the black eyes that have overcome so many battles the small hands the heavy palms that cradle we will cook simple things small things pretty things to fill our minds we are so unpretentious our house and us within us we chain the small riots we are virgins we are ***** the lights are bright and different colors but we come back to the house the lights are dim the sofa has an old print its smells like lavender under the sheets and burnt candle wax and all those spell tuning demeanors we run in and corrupt to the floor dropping like dead bodies and watch the smoke of the incense we left on, reminiscing in the air around us and missing our presence there together classic playing in the background always we are soft together like the smooth painful tune on our favorite artists lips the gentle stroke of the painters brush when he comes to the canvas to weep when he has been defeated together we are soft I lay my head on your shoulder so lightly you can barely feel it and I fall asleep to the scent of your skin

i keep peeking around these curling corners - dashing away from the finger-waggers who blink only when i'm not in this predicament when i'm not kissing the sides of this yellowing frame - still holding fast to that ensnared moment i've deemed too late to make unholy unabashed and tall in the courts of low-faced jurors who **** their teeth at my soiled apparel and glare down over horn-rimmed frames demeaning demeanors in mean-streak persons demand dumb perfection in too black tattered robes.

Oh how he thinks he likes me, But he just doesn't know yet - I'm not his type..., See his type is the kind of girl whose simple demeanors more on the shy & sly, She's the girl that dimples pretty while playing so very hard to get. She'll say she's never done "this" before- asking him for lessons then magically becoming a pro.... See she pretends to listen to your ever word,while silently figuring out the best way to get him to spend, lend and reinvent himself to suit her baser superficial needs..... His type is someone that'll take but never give, lust but never love blame but never accuse herself.... See she's the type- his type, the type to lie and hurt, making things worse. He like's the feel of her,likes the kisses and hugs... He likes the way she bats her eyelashes and pouts her lips. The way she walks as she switches her hips. Oh how he thinks he likes me.... But he just doesn't know yet - I'm not his type..., I am a Lady- full grown... Not a fake lying deceitful little girl & I'd never change my stripes unless I change for myself. Always Me Ayeshah

His Type!
In a universe full of galaxies; its clusters, superclusters, stardusts and other heavenly matters in the twinkling space, the universe attracted two mere specks of dust in the earth called mortals with nothing quite like yin and yang demeanors In a dark sky brimming with millions of stars, the earth holds a sea of billion people who wander toward each other. The universe must have conspired for these earthly mortals to work their way around each other, and finally to consign love and affection. One mortal breathed life with her shoulder-length hair at a time when her life is still unkept. She did not know that love was hiding its presence at the corner of the cold room, branded with dark ink on his arms, also concealed in bleak mood. However, Love, all of a sudden, made known its presence and revealed his being to this startled mortal who was clueless of anything. Through time, Love altered its image from blonde to black; and arms now fully covered with ink seemingly from back-to-back. Somewhere along time and circumstance, it was as if the universe almost failed its attempt of holding everything together. But fate worked its magic around for two mortals who are polar opposites to give in to the universe's strong gravitational pull. Love, at first, failed to deliver on time and could not have two mortals look straight to each other eye to eye. Finally, this mortal deciphered love revealed through long full lashes which tickles the eyes. It came with cute laughter, chubby cheeks and bite-sized chubby banana fingers. Love wasn’t weak for it found the courage to finally meet his opposite and carry on his purpose in the vast mysterious universe. Love always welcome with arms so strong and wide open Despite somber days and as well as in luminous nights. Love, surprisingly, came prepared with movie tickets but decided it did not want to watch secret life of pets. Love has a tiny medicine kit always kept in a knapsack and deep in the pocket. Love was always making sure they could have the time of their lives and and accomplish a bucket of wishes written in a dreamy list. Love came with such thoughtfulness and witty nature, and rational mind, and feisty feature. Love came tough with love and a smile so vivid it would capture you in seizure. Love came with past branded on his arms but was handed over with a present through the mortal who identifies herself as shining light. For the shining light thought Love really did arrive in time.

Skyscrapers are so high, they seem to touch the blue sky, as it passes by. Freely the puffy white clouds fly, as the birds fly a mile-high. A pigeon peeks down from it's perch on a high-rises. The scent of the beautiful fresh flowers, mangled by the ripe odor of car exhaust. The smooth sounds, of an expensive sports car race through an downtown alley. The roar of the aggressive European engine echoes across the walls of surrounding building, as it whips through the street.   A thin lip of smoke swirls from the end of a lite cigarettes, burning on the side walk. Small bursts of wind, carry the lingering stench of sewage and motor oil. Steam spews from the hot pavement. People  hurry to their destinations. Their footsteps beating down on the concrete the raindrops of a rainstorm. Absent of any cadence, they walk like soldier ants, marching through the streets of Manhattan.   Ear buds plugging their ears, from the orchestra of sounds surrounding them. Two thousand blank stares of empty eyes, gazing off into the distance, absent of the present of moment and time. A zombie like state rooted by thoughtless thoughts; and routine action. So many sluggish demeanors, mixed with confident egos. Broken spirits mixed with broken hearts. lost dreams mixed with new dreamers. All these familiar faces in unfamiliar places. A melting *** of different races, styles and graces. Old legends with new faces, in strange places. All in the same place, with a different state of mind. A big city, with a life of it's own, that strangers call home. A subway, with graffiti. Street corners for the needy, my kind of city.

Pose for me. so that I can write a poem about you. So that I can be inspired.        So regal, so gaunt, you're going to be a star             soon.        With your death comes your decomposition comes         your rebirth comes your relive comes your redeath...comes the death of the Earth. Comes the sun, comes the stars, -and every time I check back in, you avert your gaze, stoicism,   god forbid I realize you're interested in anything outside your own chaos theory about destroying the constitution of    men by raising them right.                                But you saw me write that in my mind                      and now you've switched demeanors to         the disapproving yet ultimately caring parental.            It's funny that I rescued a parent                         in you. (Tried to.)                  While doing my best to provide (the best of dreams) for both of                  us, I somehow hit a bump in the road                  that beat me into awareness.   Now that I'm awake, I can tell you, you're             just like me: terrified, alone in your body,             wrought with worry about the possibility of              your mind never reaching mine. Neither of us were well enough prepared for this    to end so soon.                    Trust me to share in your discomfort in                    dying with no true heir.                   But trust me also that I have become as                    much you as any progeny could ever be.                  And know that I do NOT trust you                  to definitely leave me this time...you've                   Cheated before. Made me feel like we really were angels, if only for each other.    You've crossed me for the last time though.     Like a bridge, I collapse, and I rise.                Like a breath I am labored, I fall for you,                           to mark safe passage.  But I DO NOT WILL NOT CAN NOT Burn away. You will always pass by way of my support. You're small again. Like when we were young.                                I feel like I could hold you in one hand.   Sometimes it takes a lot to make us realize the magnitude   of the things we are experiencing. It takes stakes   for us to see that this is one moment we are sharing   forever and never again. It takes pains to force us to put these experiences down in writing, and it takes guts to know. to know.  to Know.  that this love is **worth    having** every god **** second that we breathe.                            It takes a lot of guts, to know, when you won't be coming Back.                                       to a place you call Home. Because that feeling you were holding onto                                            went down deep in Earth.     And up into space.                              But somehow it's still in you    when you sleep and dream and wake and eat and breathe and            live                                and                     die    and [Move]                                                                          and (swim.)      Where you belong                        is not a constant.      Where I belong                              is not fixed down.      Especially when                                                 what you are, my love                                                               changes     forms so                                                                              frequently.                                                                      And you're moving along so fast.                                                                      I couldn't hope to stop you now...

It takes pains to force us to put these experiences down in writing, and it takes guts to know. to know.  to Know.  that this love is **worth    having** every god **** second that we breathe.                            It takes a lot of guts, to know, when you won't be coming Back.                                       to a place you call Home. Because that feeling you were holding onto                                            went down deep in Earth.     And up into space.                              But somehow it's still in you    when you sleep and dream and wake and eat and breathe and            live                                and                     die    and [Move]                                                                          and (swim.)      Where you belong                        is not a constant.      Where I belong                              is not fixed down.      Especially when                                                 what you are, my love                                                               changes     forms so                                                                              frequently.                                                                      And you're moving along so fast.                                                                      I couldn't hope to stop you now...

I’m okay, you’re okay. That’s the game we play Pretending, day by day To not let our demeanors betray To tamper everything we say When we daily play This game of I’m okay, you’re okay. Meanwhile, when we’re alone We can feel free to bemoan And groan (but not loudly) Everything we haven’t shown To each other but is known to us But when we’re together, that’s verboten It’s just “I’m okay, you’re okay.”

He crept his feet that night like a scorpion Dead, even to the sensitivity of nature His presence was patched with uncertain aura Epilepsy at a time, later turmoil in saturation . My God! I should have known by his sophisticated demeanors And his beguiled compliments on my velvet lips His reckless talks of treating me like a queen And the dexterous hold my hips . His hands could bear witness that night As my breath shuffled away "be gentle! " and for your own good, "be quite! " He did it like he had been born for it ... And my silent groans and moans died unheard . Now I only forward to my friend karma But shhhhhhhh He'll **** me! ... If you tell anyone ©️Drunk_poet

... If you tell anyone
These identities we create And forge upon others Do we really hold a right To decide About the patterns of behaviors and dispositions Or the appropriate demeanors and preferences for others Why do we crave to change the inherent tendencies Or the intrinsic inclinations of some individuals That differs from our own And briskly label them as 'unusual' Why does it feels so challenging To add a few more words in our vocabulary Rather than sweeping them all in a category Hiding It from others Talking about them only in hushed whispers Why do we deem their emotions as inappropriate Instill fear in them For feeling a certain way Forgetting that They are a beautiful creation of God Just like us Made to blend homogeneously Not plucked inhumanly Out of a heterogeneous population

I like adding poems to ãłøñë, because that's what these little poems are. Ãłøñë with me, with vowels & mixed demeanors. Have mercy Heaven, for the saints that walked before me. Left a narrow path back. And I'm not so sure I'll be okay in the next day....

The sound a chello makes after too much playing
She walks in strays And goes by her own ways You can see her smiles In about miles away You could hear her laughs And you would see her demeanors But yet, she's anonymous She's nobody She's anonymous She goes down rivers But she'll never quiver She stays low, But yet she's always high High as the mountains could go As she jumps down streams You could hear her screams Bouncing from tress and skies to our own very eyes But yet, she's anonymous She's nobady, She's anonymous Her voice carries on Like melodies from a song So beautiful and so tempting not to listen And the look she gives is so treasen We'll find ourselves stumbling down And wakeing up, wondering how? But yet she's anonymous She's nobody She's anonymous

they left the group took off and flew. flight was not sustained. hovering over past demeanors faltered, landed carefully in disappointment, hugging, affirming it did not matter. yet it did.

If love had a meter And inputs were measured, As a partner or a lover Would you be surpassed? Would you allow yourself to be cheated In order for the love to thrive or  even out-communicated Just to make sure the love survive? If love had a meter Would you allow lesser time And seek to do even better Just to make sure things were fine? If love was timed and monitored Would you willingly agree For your love meter to be decommissioned So our love can blossom and be free? If our movements were restricted Would you allow me to run freely, In no form or shape be intimidated Just to prove you love me dearly? If love depended upon equal inputs Would you be so caring and selfless To disregard the unwashed dishes and pots, My relaxed demeanors or care that I do less? IvanBrooksPoetry
