"ecspecially" poems
I became mesmorized by the water filter attached to the sink From ***** to clean the water glides Doing so to please each humans needs Water the necessity, the core of living, life, existence Filling each cup of energy Filling each cup of life Filter: a device to remove impurities My mind drifted and with shaky hands I began to remember Filter: a device to remove impurities How similar I though how similar Filtering , like  my speech daily ,y words altered to be clean To build into the right sentence, the sentence that fits into a specific place  set and stone Once it is filtered there is not return to ***** I remember as a child the day I was told to filter The day I was told to engage myself within myself To intertwine words in between my bones and hide them there untill they we're spell checked to play hide and seek, more hiding than seeking Make sure the words find approval Ecspecially  through man, because the word man is placed in woman But woman not in man As a defiant child I questioned life's reasonings A woman found me, an adult figure I clung to like the last leaves on a tree She spoke elgant and quiet You cannot stand alone young girl you must think before each syllable flys like birds from the cage in your mouth Suppress your  mind disable yourself so you can exist among the superior For generations to generations this is the curse but such a blessing to live We do not question humanity or the man in the w-o You were born this way dear you cannot help whats under your skirt I will train you to deal with the cards you have been dealt But never speak of my teachings for out loud we are equal I opened my ears like arms for a hug and stitched my mouth like buttons on a shirt Ten years later I stand at my kitchen sink and I feel the words under my ribs and the sentences wrapped around my neck I open my trap to let go of the misspelled words under my ribs But there gone, seeking and seeking I want all my words back but they evaporated, forgotten among the earth I take the filter and twirl it in between my fingers Holding freedom between palms filter: a device to remove impurities I pour a glass of ***** water and take a sip, a gulp, oh. the glorious tast, the glorious taste of impurity

Water Filters
I became mesmorized by the water filter attached to the sink From ***** to clean the water glides Doing so to please each humans needs Water the necessity, the core of living, life, existence Filling each cup of energy Filling each cup of life Filter: a device to remove impurities My mind drifted and with shaky hands I began to remember Filter: a device to remove impurities How similar I though how similar Filtering , like  my speech daily ,y words altered to be clean To build into the right sentence, the sentence that fits into a specific place  set and stone Once it is filtered there is not return to ***** I remember as a child the day I was told to filter The day I was told to engage myself within myself To intertwine words in between my bones and hide them there untill they we're spell checked to play hide and seek, more hiding than seeking Make sure the words find approval Ecspecially  through man, because the word man is placed in woman But woman not in man As a defiant child I questioned life's reasonings A woman found me, an adult figure I clung to like the last leaves on a tree She spoke elgant and quiet You cannot stand alone young girl you must think before each syllable flys like birds from the cage in your mouth Suppress your  mind disable yourself so you can exist among the superior For generations to generations this is the curse but such a blessing to live We do not question humanity or the man in the w-o You were born this way dear you cannot help whats under your skirt I will train you to deal with the cards you have been dealt But never speak of my teachings for out loud we are equal I opened my ears like arms for a hug and stitched my mouth like buttons on a shirt Ten years later I stand at my kitchen sink and I feel the words under my ribs and the sentences wrapped around my neck I open my trap to let go of the misspelled words under my ribs But there gone, seeking and seeking I want all my words back but they evaporated, forgotten among the earth I take the filter and twirl it in between my fingers Holding freedom between palms filter: a device to remove impurities I pour a glass of ***** water and take a sip, a gulp, oh. the glorious tast, the glorious taste of impurity

The things i see look impure to me they seem confused ecspecially when there hearts are bruised, The death they had was not a cure they search for an eternity looking for an end an end that will last an eternity an end they will never find, Their lives before when they could feel should never of ended so soon, they realise now that god himself was never here there or anywhere he was created by evil for purposes of war.
