"ejected" poems
A Friday night of imbued strangers Streets full of all walks of people Mostly staggered and tipsy Haggered and narrow minded As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of rejection and temptation I couldn't give my cash to enter a joint Thoroughly rejecting a norm construct Unhumbled and judgmental As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of inspiration and joy Where I saw a mirror of myself on the streets Vagabound souls sat begging for a today Justice and truth prevails As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of me sat on the ground At the entrance of a busy closed shop Begging for the homeless soul as people sneer The abuse and hate ejected As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of broken promises When all they do is try to have ****** People set traps of unfriendly gesture The rotten and pompous society As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of me wooing the drunk Melodious symphony of "change please" Negativity beakers but we made money baibe A reflection of minimalism As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of concluded perception Their souls touched me, they can go back a time They try but have no strength within Sour love was the wound that brought them hassle As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins It's not a Friday night anymore, the dawn smiles I have a warm home and access to facilities They have no options and crack is their hope Police huddles and societal direct abuse As they sing a song for strangers to listen For your smile and talk can be the only hope they got

Friday Night Walking in Homeless Shoes
A Friday night of imbued strangers Streets full of all walks of people Mostly staggered and tipsy Haggered and narrow minded As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of rejection and temptation I couldn't give my cash to enter a joint Thoroughly rejecting a norm construct Unhumbled and judgmental As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of inspiration and joy Where I saw a mirror of myself on the streets Vagabound souls sat begging for a today Justice and truth prevails As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of me sat on the ground At the entrance of a busy closed shop Begging for the homeless soul as people sneer The abuse and hate ejected As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of broken promises When all they do is try to have ****** People set traps of unfriendly gesture The rotten and pompous society As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of me wooing the drunk Melodious symphony of "change please" Negativity beakers but we made money baibe A reflection of minimalism As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins A Friday night of concluded perception Their souls touched me, they can go back a time They try but have no strength within Sour love was the wound that brought them hassle As they sing the only one anthem of pumping  alcohol inside their veins It's not a Friday night anymore, the dawn smiles I have a warm home and access to facilities They have no options and crack is their hope Police huddles and societal direct abuse As they sing a song for strangers to listen For your smile and talk can be the only hope they got

Walk onto a stage called life and take a look around. There's much to be found in such a small space, more to give and much to take as the curtains called and you're pulled into this performance. Stare into the audience and pray for applause but what if you're met with silence? Spotlight on you as your hopes are ejected and you my friend have just been rejected and that is a hard thing to take. So take a seat, a rejection seat. Front row to your failures as they come In-ter-view. Call it the Dragons Den the Lions Pit and yet they ask me what kind of animal i'll be as i sit and daydream about Spiderman in a suit listing qualities of make believe as he's forced to fill in a CV just like me; not that i'm a superhero, i'm just saving face you see, it's just an amusing thought to ease the anxiety. And the voluntears they come in turn. Call em that cause they come momentarily to remind me involuntarily that sometimes i do need help and not all things are easy, not all things are meant to be. So i take a seat, will you take one with me? As you watch that relationship sail and wonder how did it fail? Bon voyAge is irrelevant. Whether it be school crush folly to divorcee it's a learning curve right? Hard when it seems the only thing you taught me is what it means to feel lonely. It's cold in that place called the one way street, so take a seat. Pull up a chair to something that's no longer there and share in despair as you stare at your feet. But you will raise your head eventually. Adopt the thinkers pose, indulge in some feelosophy. Cause a friend once said to me that rejection is a time for reflection and i tend to agree. So tell me, as i stare into the face of rejection why is it that i see my own reflection? Am i cursed to take this personally? It's always the shoulda, woulda, couldas that get to me. Do they get to you? If so take a seat. And are you sitting uncomfortably? Cause you shouldn't be. Take comfort as you stare along row upon row of chairs that stretch along beyond you and me. Side to side, across from and diagonally. Filling the Feartre. There's many to be found in such a small space, more that give and much that take and though this may be the closing scene there's another show tomorrow and you and I will receive our standing ovation, just take my hand and stand with me. Cause this seat was only ever meant to be temporary.

I was turned on by a Toaster, she tanned my bread to gold In time she ejected me, it was her natural Toaster role... I fell for her sister, a Deep Fryer in despair, my lust began to boil I had to come up for some air... I ran off with a Can Opener, she could even sharpen knives, She opened up a can of *** whip, she could never be my wife! I met a **** Freezer, but her heart was cold as ice, I was bitten by her frosty ways Once bitten, never twice... I made my way across the tile to an Oven quite unique All her features were well displayed, on this EZ Baking Freak! She cooked me on the surface, yet burnt me deep within I guess my culinary skills were lacking in the end... So now I date a Spatula safely from the heat She flips a mean burger and french fries by the heap! Truth is I'm a Poet Who simply likes to eat!

KITCHEN *******
Back in my rebel days (yester) I sported a spelunking bumper sticker On my 1972  VW pop-up camper van That read Free Floyd Collins Totally apolitical well intentioned humor Concerning one of my pasttimes that surprisingly Never maimed or killed me Whilst reporting for an official call for jury duty The uptight and obviously a **** (did I just say that?) Prosecutor enquired during jury selection As to whether any of us prospectives Had bumper stickers and if so What they might say The NRA sticker guy next to me And the I'd Rather Be Fishin'  and NASCAR Sticker guy next to him Passed with smugly flying colors (red needless to say) While the 72 year old nun With the Amnesty International sticker Didn't fair so well And was promptly burned at the stake (I kid you) Needless to say The long-haired Harvard educated Native American With the Doctors Without Borders And the Remember Wounded Knee With a not so discreet AIM sticker thrown in to boot Also got the boot Pondering the merits of the court stenographer's Shapely fingers while judiciously confidently awaiting my turn It never ocurred to me that Mr. Collins might be So wrongly accused as to have me Rejected and summarily ejected From jury duty A travesty of justice I say If for no other reason than I was so looking forward to Sticking it to the Man You can imagine my surprise and disappointment As I wandered down to the Shamrock To catch Terry O'Leary do a slam And raise a glass to Bobby Sands r~ 22Feb14

The Fine Art of Choosing the Perfect Bumper Sticker
I tilted my head . I wilted and was dead - No longer entangled in this snare called life - none the less remembered, respected Dejected in my illusion - Where i wander most often, unclaimed and disillusioned - Whatever was I hoping for- longing in which to see - the distorted , unreported - dismemberment of ME - Expectations are like curses, drowning and alienating ALL who dare to dream - The Ideals of a stranger - I am now what I seem

Ejected from Illusion by Andrea Murray
Pellets of rain pestered the cotton swagged sky, cloudy purses grew black with scowls coldly spelling their injustice. A chapter of sunrays shot shamesless shards, irony perched between chaperones; a truce maybe, rains restless pathways of rays bleating their appeal, rooming in, black balaclavas, rooting for blue beams, itching bony beads of cloudy sweat, out of reach In turn, limbs colour coated grassy spaces tides of sun worshippers laughed out loud their inner duets, hand in hand the sweltering dance floor bathed them, sidling cotton clouds Swiftly passing the sunscreen, laying back, beckoning the sun from beneath neatly positioned cloud baubles. Within an inch of our lives the splodges began, light heavy, heavier, to the swell of April in full tune Instantly the greedy green spaces groaned, ejected sweet harmony, rolled out goodbyes, tongued stiff breeze longing for its thirst to be quenched, and so torrents rushed in where fools once lay A lonely sunscreen bottle, remnant of warm minds soaking heat, long days teasing into belief. Yet April fooled us once more with beguiling banter, chorused a chanting cheating lullaby of lamentation

Beguilingly April
I think we're going extinct I hate to even blink  ... I remember when we were in sync  But things changed  We will act strange over change  Being caged and attached by chains is voguish  Are we hopeless?  Why can we polish our pinky rings  But leave rust on our linkage chains?  Our words don't bond anymore  Our words are shackles  Our words are like crooked spurs  And unbalanced saddles  Yeah It travels  But lies are to be told  Only to smear what we really withhold  I think that we're going extinct  I hate to blink  As my eye lids flicker  More and more existence spills from our mankind  Man-kind  We're turning into the kind of men  Who emotionally melts when we see celebrities  Where's our rectitude?  I think we're going extinct  I hate to blink Where's my natural woman? Every time I twitch  More and more she accepts the word *****  And in no time a guy can become exposed to her hips  Where's our morality?  Are we going to expire  All because we create our entire empire with desires?  Desires and thirst that require us to hurt  We smile and we smirk  We loath from good work  We poke at nerves We drown our minds to swerve  We absorb potion  Only to tranquil our motion  We indulge in copulation  With a stranger  But somehow for consolation  ... We are endangered  We are a few more trends away from complete annihilation  Eradication  Liquidation  Obliteration  Cancellation  Our tendencies are cancerous and if we keep being patient  We will need medication  I don't feel any radiation  To not become subject to our decimation I think we're going extinct  My instincts tell me that Though we're a percentage and a contributor to this nation  We are approaching ruination  My instinct senses that I am one of the few who mentions devastation  And if I blink one more time  And if we keep wasting time  We'll be wastage  We  You and I  We'll be ejected from the race  And they'll use a prosthetic ethnic affiliation for our replacement  Can we come together with cooperation  Resisting this operation  May we all stand up  Before they go through with this amputation !  Blink Lets see

I think I really am dying Where there was once a vibrancy, In the first name that I wouldn’t remember anymore, Winds that only whisper it still **** its flame, And still, everything's the same, Perhaps: something important collects dust in a drawer. But I guess I was just in love with the day, And by elimination, not the person. I absolutely adored the rays of the sun, the green leaves on the trees and tall grass by the path. So I guess 1+1=0, according to the aftermath, and taking one away from itself ends with none. And that right there just might be how I passed the time, By distracting myself from framing pictures with no captions. Now I can clearly remember the day, the now anonymous smiles and warm open skies, The breezes long sought for, the figureless eyes, Now all I'm capable of remembering is the day. Forcefully ejected into space, those other memories fly. Of course, I still have them, but of course I deny. If I were so forgetful, my words would be real, For I can reject the details and the poison, but I just can't reject how they made me feel.

day
I bit down on my back teeth, and let the air release from my nose. I want to scream, I want to break things, but I can write fury instead. There is a typhoon in my chest, that is ejected from my pen. My paper rips from the pressure. I imagine it be like skin, and how this ink bleeds boiling hatred is what I thirst for when the adrenaline kicks in. Because when all is said and done, and bloodshot eyes glance downward. The reality washes over me- I have made in madness.

Unsinned 4: Wrath
Faded gilding, rubbed through to cracking, flaking wood. A glamour of ages, sliding, flies to the breeze. The little bird perches on a once-fine moulding; Head tilted, one bright eye turned towards the mantle where a half-blind mercurised mirror barely reflects an army of creeping vines, consuming naked angels and the God of this house. Our hero’s velvets are ruined, dripping and eaten through. Where riches have lived, decay succeeds. Nature’s velvets; opulent mosses and emerald lichens are devouring damask and smoothing over marbled hardness. The bird listens for footsteps. The lady would scatter crumbs on the windowsill and he would flutter, unafraid, to peck at her sweet feast. Once, she drew him. Fine-lining passerine delicacy, her pencils fetched him, and bestowed him an artist’s nobility. He turned, this way and that, flashing gold-touched wings, miming a duchess snapping open a fan. She’s gone now, and so have the crumbs. The bird senses no sugar on the sill, nor the faintest reminiscence of lavender perfume, glittering as star bursts at the hollow of her throat. He sings regardless, a mournful beauty longing to return to a glorious, lustful age, where light refracted in cut crystal, danced upon frescoes and illuminated the ugly – - to render them enchanting. He swoops to dance on the mantle, answered by the mirror and sits a while, preening. The gentlemen and ladies are gone forever. Ejected from history to echo as ghosts of fancy and excess, undeserving of remembrance or pity. The bird will never forget. And knots up secrets kept tightly in his breast, committed to his tiny, fierce heart.

awry, askew, the poetry comes badly, clawing, life as well, faring poorly, the obvious linkage stinkage allows a milliseconds smile, a brief fiefdumb accolade of distress confirmation DH Lawrence appears in the  inbox, he too, awry, askew, tufts of wool clouding life like dust, rust and must, an old friendship renewed, the cold ex and in-eternal suggest frequent naps and hibernation, so much so that this script was commenced and committed years ago and lay forlornly in the ***** snow fallow and shallow drafts from prior years To every season there is a turn, a turning of the ***** yet the hacking cough from focculent dust on the floor of the world fills the lungs continuously, knows no respite, the spittle and the phlegm ejected herein, a disarming poem of dissatisfaction, alas, alas, the dust thickens and is not lessened ~for Medusa daughter~

A flocculent dust on the floor of the world
I'm a Feminist But My ovaries are in pain. I'm a woman But I don't feel connected to my main vein. I'm bleeding in places much deeper than my- I'd say the word But i'll refrain. Instead of being taught to embrace, I've learned to drown In The Pain Of Being A woman. Soft Weak Instead of strong And unique. Instead of taking agency, I'm treated like an antique. Fragile, Even though i've survived Everything men told me... (I'll leave you to ponder but won't describe. ) I love being a woman, But it's a love/hate relationship I can't lie.  I take pride But when my head hits the pillow, I do cry. In fact, I mourn. I mourn the excitement society had for me when I was born. Now i'm rejected, Because of children i haven't ejected, Penises i haven't erected, a husband i haven't selected. A pariah if you will, But i have my own will. Something women are shamed for because we feel, Feel the need to take back our power Because if we don't, Someone else will, Tell us What to wear, How to heal, **** our souls until we cant feel, Leaving us empty Alone and afraid Only to arrest us for a feminist parade. I love being a woman But my heart is in pain, I find solace in the depths of a woman, So I know i'll remain...

Feminist (unfinished)
O, these fine, fashionable, fondlers Of pondering wisdom’s, In the idioms of earthen Consents, Gray case encrusted, Attitudinal cements. Parapet and barrier, Laments of rancid carrion. Self bestowed upon slinking shoulders. Into the Frey of Man speak, Into the realm of blood and bone, Ejected into the otherings That man alone bestows. Upon his brothers ****** brow, Upon his trodden heart, They seek definition In epitome In enfilades of bias and violence. They languish under opinionated stars, Under sun’s of blood red risings. O that the voice of this could only die a death Befitting some horrid criminal, And peace come in its stead. A vision of a dreamer A poet writing wishes Clichés of lost hopes In search of soulful riches.

In Search of Soulful Riches
i only went in for the chocolate fountain not because i was hungry i just wanted to stare at it the velvety mahogany liquid polyurethane oozing i stuck my hand in to feel it warm and loving embracing every pore and thats when they grabbed me chocolate dripping from each digit onto a magenta floral pattern adorning the space beneath the feet of the sheep head long dragged gazing above me toward gaudy chandeliers with the clanging and luminous oscillation of one armed bandits secure in my peripherals i was ejected lifting myself i left a very ****** looking hand-print saluted the floor security scowling in my vacinity and tasted my finger

the only jeans with holes, the polo shirt with "passionate peach" paint from the kitchen remodel she wanted, the yard work shoes these were the raiments he chose for his final drive, the one in "park" in the garage, with the engine idling, its humming a monotonous lullaby sung by compliant pistons he wandered through the house like a sated forager, looking at everything, for nothing, old pictures on the walls--children, parents, one of himself, the Yale mortar board tilting on a face who could have been a stranger, and was, that last afternoon books on shelves, mostly read, their stories now forgotten even Moby **** his favorite--eight silent vertical letters replacing a white whale he relentlessly pursued with Ahab a sink with one small plate and the disposal's shining ring, the burial ground for his last, uneaten meal those were the visions he chose before writing his notorious note, "BYE, ALL MY PAPERS ARE IN THE ROLL TOP" taking the keys from the peg, and taking his final steps into the cluttered gray garage, to his 2011 Volvo when some hand turned the key, igniting a welcoming flame, a few intrusive notes of a Beatles song came through the six speaking speakers yanking something in his gut, pulling his hand to the handle to open the door, to return to the house, the pictures, the stories on the walls, but the other, the right hand, ejected the CD, rejecting the beguiling voices that would have him stay, for another dull, deaf day he folded his hands in his lap, allowed his chin to rest on his chest where his eyes could see the holes in his threadbare denim taking solace in the fact that he had chosen the right clothes so those still in the house, yet in the blur called life would have only whole and clean reminders of him to fold neatly, and leave on the porch for the Salvation Army

Muslim women are ejected for standing up to Donald Trump. This is what America is made of, most support this kind of "Mature" activity. Many have lost what little wit or decency We know of, and are hypocrites who actually SPEAK about What they call patience and Universal LOVE.

if you choke
12:45 The sun has gone black, the world is asleep. In the family room, the television clicks on by itself. It illuminates my father, half-naked, covered in processed cheese dust. The channel changes to Cinemax, ******** *********** My mother walks in without her glasses, and for a moment her screams of disgust are indistinguishable from the throes of passion broadcast on the cheap Acer dad bought at Costco. Elsewhere, in South America, a volcano has erupted. It sprays debris and detritus over a small village with a long name. Postmodern Vesuvians **** ash, frozen not with fear but rigor mortis. The CNN report plays for three hours. The world moves on. Later, a man explodes in a convenience store. Guts rocket outward, onto wine coolers and travel packages of Chex, and the clerk just shrugs. If you go there today, all that’s left is the smell of ammonia and a dark stain on the ceiling. At the same moment, a toddler steps off a cliff, spiraling into the abyss, but never stops falling. He’s been going for days, months, years. He has kept his audience updated through a Bluetooth that we tossed down after him. He’s had windburn since he fell, but the ointment we sent hasn’t reached him yet. His parents are now expecting. He just yawns. In my family room, the woman on Cinemax is climaxing, screaming, pulling her hair out while a greased-up middle aged pizza deliveryman autoerotically asphyxiates himself with a hair tie. As she wails for the last time, the TV screen shatters, glass ejected, blazing through the air like Flight 93 seconds before impact. Sparks salivate from the exposed wires, then cackle down into a signed black. And as this happens, the children on Exeter St stop crying. The alcohol in a small town liquor store in Wyoming un-ferments, and the world, for a moment, ceases to turn. But only for a blink.

Is love a game? Are there winners and losers? I know it creates liars, cheaters and boozers But it also creates romance, hopes and dreamers The good with the bad, the angels and demons Is love a game? Can you forfeit your heart? Is there a finish line? Where do you start? Who keeps score and who decides? Who is in charge and who is along for the ride? Is love a game? Are there MVPs or all stars? Can you get injured? Can you leave with scars? Blood, sweat and tears, nothing compares To finding that one person who truly cares. The ultimate touchdown, run and jump-shot The hardest battle that you've ever fought. Is love a game? Who is your competition? Yourself, your lover or other women? Are there personal fouls? Can you get ejected? Do you get two shots if you feel neglected? Is love a game? I want you on my team. I pick you first- just you and me. I know we can finish in first place, If you can just look me in the face And tell me that you want to win, That you want to knock down that final pin We keep getting spares, it's always the same You keep me asking is love a game?
