"eclectic" poems
You don’t need to try so hard. You can wear the clothes you want. Do whatever you please, Express yourself the way you know how. You can wear those heels Just because you love them. Your true friends will accept you And all your little quirks. It’s time to let it go, Let go of all your fears of judgement. Stop caring what people think of you, It’s none of your business anyways. You are who are for a reason. You’re crazy, eclectic, A miss independent and a little rebellious. You like to defy the norms of society So why aren’t you doing it? Let go of all those rules and make your own. You’ve always stood for the outcasts, Paving your own path, Cutting the trees blocking your way. Why care now about fitting in When you’re a shining gem? You were born to lead, to conquer. This is your destiny, you’ve always worn Your individuality just like a badge. Don’t become submissive, Stop looking for approval, You won’t find it anywhere But inside of yourself. It’s the self-acceptance that comes first, There’s no better friend than you. Go on, look in the mirror. Remember, you better like who you are, That is the person you’ll be stuck with For the rest of your life. Enjoy all the strangeness, All the weird parts of your personality. There’s no refunds, no exchanges. You are who you are and that Is perfection; no matter what anyone says. Accept who you are now, Accept all the growth to come. You can accomplish even your Wildest dreams, those shooting stars. It’s time to just be, Time to stop leaning on societies Ideals and march on out With head held up high. Self acceptance is all you need.

When people ask if you're weird, or tell you, or want to believe themselves strange, eclectic, or odd. It's vaguely disgusting to me, cringeworthy in a mild degree. We think we're so different, but we are not. The individualism of people should be and is comparable to the individualism of ants. Who looks at the anthill and sees something in particular, something behaving specifically "uniquely" from every ant and every anthill? Why do you believe in yourself? I see this, as a conversation about depression, and your partner does not respect you but instead wants to tell you how they feel worse, or have it worse, or "understand" more about the affirmation or situation. A person looking for individuality through a lens of misery, anguish, and sadness, is truly alone in their minds, and missing the reality that these depressions exist without them. The statement, "you are not alone" is an attack, or an offense to these people, because it says "you are not as unique as you think", it strips them of their identity and individuality. This is true of many ideologies and affirmations. I quit individuality, this constricting sense of holding everything of yourself in center, to be a drop in the whole, something fluid. If you split your affirmations from yourself, you'd see we're all the same; Affirmations are just currents in the ocean. I look at myself; and people see a man, a radical feminist, and sometimes a musician. As labels, these each have their own presupposed notions, [especially, "man" or "male" in the patriarchal gaze] which hardly, if ever, are true, but as affirmations, when I consent to using them, these are no longer stereotypes that constrain me, but similarities that I realize I can embrace or shut out in others. Affirmations do not make me more unique, but similar to more people. If I remove these affirmations to try and get to my "true" center, my purest form of self, I see I am without meaning. This is why I quit Individuality.

Tick Tock, Counts the Clock (alliteration)
I am the eclectic witch There are no gods to tell me how to live But the wind howls my fate Where the rain falls I will dance Because I prefer sandalwood to perfume I am the eclectic witch I have no coven Only the flora and fauna And the tip of a blade Where grass grows I will prance Because I prefer metaphysics to religion

The Eclectic Witch
Hear the bass, grace notes race all over the place Cymbals paced, hi-hats chase, weaving between the bass The piano - chords struck with wide spanned hands Poly-rhythmic, multi-layered sounds in strands The timbre of reed vibrating against warm metal Precision; a sixth, a ninth and an eleventh interval A major, a minor scale; a frantic modal sweat A small sound for mankind; but a truly giant step Each note slices through the eclectic beat-drop Singing and whispering this post-modern be-bop Multi-phonics scream, like controlled feedback The seductive saxophone – this weapon of attack The boundary is stretched, new ground broken The holy saxophone has never thus spoken And I pay homage, all my deepest respects Go to the man who made those giant steps

You know, there's always a song that takes me back To a year, so long before It's not always a top ten song That hits my very core It just grabs me and transports me Back in time while standing still It might take me to a good place Release a memory I should **** But, my soundtrack is different It's not just music in my mind There's sounds that make my playlist up Sounds of a different kind A baseball smacking leather God, that sets me free Some good, some bad, some coaching Some involve my ******* up knee The click on every eight track When it switches channels to play on Brings back those early mornings when the house cleaning was done But, music, yes the music makes a large part of my list Some take me back to dances And the girls I never kissed The good songs stretch my senses Make me smell things from the past The memories still linger While the music didn't last Sirens, car wrecks, yelling Have their place on my list too It's not music to most people It made my list though, who knew? A sound as small as raindrops Take me back to a morning when I stood on line with a hundred others Brave women and brave men Cornwallis, Nova Scotia rain and U2 take me on a track To basic training on the east coast Wow, that's 25 years back A car crash and a siren Takes me to when I met my wife This was on the television when Princess Di, she lost her life So, my soundtrack is eclectic It's not just music fuels my trips It might be a golf ball bouncing That takes me through a time warp slip A song, that's just too easy Everyone has one of those But, can you travel back, oh, 30 years When someone blows their nose? There's more sounds that effect me But, those I think I'll hide I will write about them later And I will take you on that ride In 50 years of living Lots of sounds have hit my ears We'll sit and chat about them One day over a few beers....

Soundtrack of my life
You know, there's always a song that takes me back To a year, so long before It's not always a top ten song That hits my very core It just grabs me and transports me Back in time while standing still It might take me to a good place Release a memory I should **** But, my soundtrack is different It's not just music in my mind There's sounds that make my playlist up Sounds of a different kind A baseball smacking leather God, that sets me free Some good, some bad, some coaching Some involve my ******* up knee The click on every eight track When it switches channels to play on Brings back those early mornings when the house cleaning was done But, music, yes the music makes a large part of my list Some take me back to dances And the girls I never kissed The good songs stretch my senses Make me smell things from the past The memories still linger While the music didn't last Sirens, car wrecks, yelling Have their place on my list too It's not music to most people It made my list though, who knew?

The snow drifts were quite high, piling up into the northern sky, burying towns and trees and the poor souls who had fallen asleep on the grass and had awoken with shivers as snowflakes left little kisses on their eyelids. Except that, it was never grass. There was never any grass to begin with. There was no grass or spring or sun or summer or birds. There was only winter and snow. And the blinding, white terrain had become both a place of desolation and s a n c t u a r y. The Aroura Borealis danced like a beautiful blue fire across the night sky. Stars blinked in and out of existence. And somehow, the halls always remained. The blue halls. Imagine, if you will, the Colosseum cut into halves and shaped like an elbow macaroni. Drop it out in the middle of an arctic wasteland and wash it in the blue glow of the northern, night sky. A bright yellow light poured out of the windows and onto the snow, but no one was ever inside. Some say it's the doorway to heaven. Others say it's the gates of hell. And then there are the strangers. Strangers who wear their lavender, silk headscarves and avoid the rumors of such an exquisite and eclectic piece of architecture. Others like myself. "If there is no one inside, then where is the music coming from?" He asked me, his blue eyes shining as blue as the heavenly hues against the midnight clouds. " The halls will hum if the wind passes through them just so." We listened to them once more. A low and ancient hum emanated from the structure. It was an old sound that resonated within me-unnerved me. The mysterious blue halls were not a simple door to some glorious silver city or the passageway to a fiery lake. The halls were the most beautiful and interesting instrument the universe has even known. "It's the harmonica of the gods!" Perhaps one of them dropped it. Perhaps it was a flaw in design. Perhaps it was meant to be silent and with one teensy miscalculation, an entire orchestra of notes were born by the wind. Perhaps it is telling me to tell you that you should look not towards all that makes you perfect, but the imperfections because that is where true beauty rests. And you are so beautiful. The kind of beauty that doesn't know it's own beauty. Like when you are sleeping, and the moon washes over your face. I like when you are sleeping, for you are so beautiful, yet so unaware.

Red, edifying & ditsy, Wine illuminated names -- eclectic, & gypsy. Yippee persons; So yawned Night. I gathered her, too Tipsy, I paused & smoked young Faith, aimed it too high And next dared The hour escape. Oscar sounded clear and round.

Red Wine Gypsy Night, Tipsy Faith, and the Oscar
The actors are outside smoking and discussing ideas they only know through fiction. I’m not amused. I’m in a band that’s falling apart with wit, and some not-eclectic, or odd, but still strange type of grace. There’s a message on the table when I get home. There’s a piece of me that wants to be jealous. I’m desperate for an escape. I’m desperate.

"Color & Technology."
how do you paint water, or clouds? I could read poetry for the brief, of my of remaining life, however brief, and never be satiated, of love, and streams of water, never stilled, always running in patterns that exist, but for milliseconds, admired by clouds born in, of, a moment of re-formation that is perpetuity long: unending shape shifting, like the freedom of flowing water currents, forming, reforming and unthinkable, nay, inconceivable that human eyes or their spoken words could capture their shiny white foamy essence But of love, that we can do, paint, design, recreate its endless loops of undulations, like the radiating circularity of a pebble dropped gently to its burial sight in a quiet pond. Humans know, understand and excel at clasping and grasping at the synapsing of human cells from differing bodies: the exogenous erogenous of human touch that like the clouds and the water, who could paint that, who capable of capturing said sensations that wrack and enliven the body with invisible interior chemical reactions. I cannot. Thankfully better men and women have treatised  their entreaties to the powers of the universe and been rewarded with the skilled delicacy of weaving human tapestries, the milliseconds of connectivity, eclectic and electrifying of different currents and differing amperage’s forming and reforming like water moving, just  like the clouds changing in response to the externalities of wind and gravity and all the forces of nature that encourage us to study and stare at these flows, hoping to entrance them into standing still for but a moment, and instead, mesmerizing us into standing motionless for hours in awe of their freedom. Love’s undulations too mesmerizing, and freezing us into place, or alternatively caucus to run endlessly arms extending, flying though not airborne, rocketing us upwards while feet never budging, but finding good wards, masterful metaphors to recreate and thus to share the fabulous mystery of this thing we know as love. 2:58AM Friday jul 22 (jewel 22) of the 23rd year of the 21st Century.

Consumed by the diversity of one infinite reason to live She's under the wave of a thousand pains, but the desire to breathe, it's So much stronger than the need to no longer be, and then suddenly All at once she's on fire, flying higher, one breathing, eclectic queen Everything her eyes fall upon is healing, and becoming something Her wings spread as her beliefs begin to mend, and the future once again becomes promising This world is continuing to fall apart and she's growing through its heart But the moment she blossoms will be the day our universe restarts To continue to expand your horizon, you only have to be honest Open and caring, loving and daring, let your passions fly and find solace In the chaos of time and space, there is hidden poetry here and she hopes someday they will find wholeness.

Eclectic Queen
Scraggly curl hair bounces in the air wagging with whisky eyes breezy pleasing the eclectic electric hectic now mind like finding a papaya inside an oyster battery powered like a pomegranate passionfruit flower growing and glowing around my trinity heart with the noise of a sphere's galactic ****** Crystal Citrine Mountains provide water fountains of sunlight as so tye-dye t-shirt hip-cat hippos smokin' coconut shisha bathe in barrels of bourbon. Lion snakes spit words of worlds hurling nebulous timeline's spiraling and crashing and splashing baptism ripples together painting Pollack Splatters with the aroma of Byrd Jazz Jam on rye-whisky bread. Fractal Berries served by the Far Out Faerrie Ferryman Skeletan with bejeweled emerald eyes winks while I read in the reeds panting in pan-flutes while water rabbits scamper into clay enclaves to bathe in pinecone designed sand-tubs. The hieroglyphic phoenix twists and skip-scats neon green vinyl turning the wind inside out to x-ray flames of fireworks.

Untitled Realm # 4-Triangle.7u
Watching her cook was like watching a duck in water. Making use of the old utensils and cookware of the hotel kitchen she made a meal with an eclectic mix of elements she had pondered over breakfast. Sauté, mince, sear, season: these words flowed from her lips like a second language in time with the steady chops on the cutting board and I was mesmerized when she moved in perfect rhythm from stirring the mushrooms to flipping the sweet potato hash into the air; tasting and adding more olive oil to marry the idea on her palate to the reality on the stovetop.

Bon Appetit
Covent Garden. Midnight. Revellers and tourists combined. The market is heaving. Last trains are leaving. An eclectic mix to broaden the mind. Covent Garden. 2am. The place is pretty quiet. Pubs have closed. Clubs.... God knows. The tourists have frozen their riot. Covent Garden. 4am. A drunkard stumbles by. Flood lit shops. A rickshaw stops. The backdrop against a reddish sky. Covent Garden. 6am. Blokes lurk down Langley street. The glint of a blade. A blur in the shade. Lava tip of cigarette falls to a strangers feet. Covent Garden. 8am. Commuters emerge from underground stations. Workers prepare. Visitors beware. Pick pockets attracted like gravitation.

Covent Garden by night.
Distance traveled time spent's dynamic progressiveness, existentially transcendental's clairaudience clairvoyance.  Metaphysical mystique’s  evolutionally metamorphic futurity's fatidic incarnate.  Due yesterday’s retrospectively retroactive.  Protractive analyses' dimensional delineations.  Enigma entity’s dexterously tactile acuity and coordinated agility on the identity crisis.  Cerebral cortex’s ****** matrix to synaptic syntax semantics.  Prospectus perplexity surreally sublime.  Quagmire quandary’s poshly plush.  Who am I to think I can conception of the infinite supply?  Even the syntactics of eclectic synectics pale by compare to the atrociously impetuous impudence in pugnaciously audacious.  Impromptu innuendo's juncture.   Imagination’s immaturities are psychic clarity’s entelechy to evolutional tenants élan vital.  Fiduciary principle's financially responsible fiscal policies.   Mercenary mendacity's plenary plenipotentiary.  Innocuous noumenal verity, mystic symbiotic’s chicanery dynamism fealties.  Proximity parameter’s perimeter peripherals, vicinity victuals to vigilante villain,   propinquity habitation’s harbingers of harangued.  The question remains on the tribal:  how can I stand next to the person I’m standing next to if I’m carrying on right through them.  It’s the trajectory extant in spatiotemporal's telemetry tactician.  Well graspy greedy on the stingy frugal to mingy minion and paw flaw laws claws on it.  Get a glove, objectified manifest’s diminutive minutia iota’s of self-inductive interstitial extrapolation.  Detinue perfective.  Traveling down this obtusely overt contusion in my vehicular contrivance convection convolution.  Nimbus nimiety exorcism’s aura roan to rainbow mare.  Unicorn railway nails.  Swarthy ******** swath swizzles on the sweaty swelter swerve to verve.

Distance traveled time spent's dynamic progressiveness, existentially transcendental's clairaudience clairvoyance.  Metaphysical mystique’s  evolutionally metamorphic futurity's fatidic incarnate.  Due yesterday’s retrospectively retroactive.  Protractive analyses' dimensional delineations.  Enigma entity’s dexterously tactile acuity and coordinated agility on the identity crisis.  Cerebral cortex’s ****** matrix to synaptic syntax semantics.  Prospectus perplexity surreally sublime.  Quagmire quandary’s poshly plush.  Who am I to think I can conception of the infinite supply?  Even the syntactics of eclectic synectics pale by compare to the atrociously impetuous impudence in pugnaciously audacious.  Impromptu innuendo's juncture.   Imagination’s immaturities are psychic clarity’s entelechy to evolutional tenants élan vital.  Fiduciary principle's financially responsible fiscal policies.   Mercenary mendacity's plenary plenipotentiary.  Innocuous noumenal verity, mystic symbiotic’s chicanery dynamism fealties.  Proximity parameter’s perimeter peripherals, vicinity victuals to vigilante villain,   propinquity habitation’s harbingers of harangued.  The question remains on the tribal:  how can I stand next to the person I’m standing next to if I’m carrying on right through them.  It’s the trajectory extant in spatiotemporal's telemetry tactician.  Well graspy greedy on the stingy frugal to mingy minion and paw flaw laws claws on it.  Get a glove, objectified manifest’s diminutive minutia iota’s of self-inductive interstitial extrapolation.  Detinue perfective.  Traveling down this obtusely overt contusion in my vehicular contrivance convection convolution.  Nimbus nimiety exorcism’s aura roan to rainbow mare.  Unicorn railway nails.  Swarthy ******** swath swizzles on the sweaty swelter swerve to verve.

Kitsch
Acerbic antagonist alliterates agonizing accusations, blasting ******* backbiter butting beautiful bombastic brainy blond bomb. Cumulative cranial casualties cease caveman's cognitive coherence. Doom digger derides Daddy's dangling dire dreary **** Eclectic esoteric eccentric egotistical estranger; Forthcoming fathoms fetch faithless fleeting father. God given goblins gather gossamer ganglions; Hell's hairy harlot harpies hover heeding Hyperion. Ignatius imbibes irrevocably insisting, "Jesus juggles justice's joy jarring jams." Kindness kindles Kilimanjaro; Malicious mountains melt, Mmm, morning marjoram. Nothing negates Neanderthal ninnying. Overt obsessions obfuscate original object of purest passions, paltry past pinings, quickly quieted, quelled, resisted, relinquished, readily, ruefully, roundly saturated, suffocated; surreptitiously silenced, terribly torturing the thrashed tamed tormentor: Ugly, ungrateful, unapologetic, Vanity, woefully wallowing, wailing, "Where's Xanadu's zeitgeist!?"

I hate it when you alliterate
Your trying too hard to make me invisible. Yet there's something left in that head that makes me irresistible. All ego set aside... I'm not the one to run and hide. Your stuck in this moment that doesn't even exist. It's too bad you fell in love with a realist. Started making things up, to make that pedestal seem higher. But the world can be an ugly place...I'll let you in on a secret, your not the only liar. That pedestal has been stuck in that hole you continue to dig. I have been trying to work around it, but you have my world rigged. My beautiful dragonfly will lead the way around. Knows you just as well as I do, so it's got me flying far from the ground. If you want to continue to live behind the scenes... Carry on, by all means. I tried to convince myself it was all derived from respect, Like you never pulled the trigger, but with the coldness of your heart I don't know what's left. Just remember the world will keep on turning. This is the only fire still capable of burning. With the lack of words, it should need its oxygen fix. I guess in light of you, it has it's own tricks. Your not the only one slowly sinking in quick sand, Looking around...in need of a hand. The fact is, not everyone is that weak... Having to file the most difficult into the "problems that don't speak". This is more real for me, than it is for you. Yet you can't get it through your head that it's even true. There is beauty in all evil, & now it resides right by my side. The weight of it grows heavier as the days roll on, may as well have some pride. The worlds evil can transform, if you care enough to mold it yourself. The thing is you were never there, so you are clueless how it feels, or how it felt. My beautiful dragonfly, Never got the chance to walk along side. Never had the opportunity to leave footprints in the sand. Not even a moment to reach for a hand. But eclectic wings have spread, Ever since the sky shattered, some light has shed. All I need is me, myself, & my dragonfly. May not have been born to the real world, but the soul is encrypted in my mind. Wether you come to terms and face the facts, or continue to hide. At least I will have evils beauty, forever flying by my side.

Unfinished sentences have become my forte. Unvoiced emotions have become my norm. When you see penguins or giraffes, When you taste pancakes or lo mein, When you hear josh turner on the radio, When you drive through the eclectic neighborhoods Of hilly chilly San Francisco, Will you miss... I will always love... Even though I shouldn't... But maybe one day... Yeah... One day this won't hurt so much... Right?

Question #10
we are not the embodiment of beauty, despite the way your quips dance with my vagary, or how our bones are trophies built from the same bits of shrapnel from explosions, forged by hands who never learned how to fashion empires out of anything but fragments, no, we are much more than beautiful, we are isotopic, enigmatic, we’re magnetic and eclectic, we are the sum of all things, a compilation, a mosaic, we are a memoir of the universe, we are fate, we’re algebraic, we’re the intersection of two lines without a destination, but when i follow the trail of freckles up your spine, i find the root of my elation
