"existance" poems
It seemed the space between us became torn and Profoundly distanced.................... Jamming bony knuckles and spread eagled fingers, Lying their mapped out journey.....direction on point patrol.... Adorned by silver decoration, delighting in their skinned habitat Shafted, deceit punching the recipient of the poison digits Prodding and pushing their intent....dare you contradict The intended carved out dose of punishment, Risk and Safety......not yours and never would be; stooped Down under the assailing bony palmed attachements That delivered penetrating power, cupped around Your arm til it became discoloured, pressure points Backed you into a corner, up against the grain of the Brick wall, cold and damp, the odour reaching And scolding your nostrils with its stale internal vows Refuse, stretching and protruding its foul remnents An earlier life, when you were not under threat fades Your very existance in jeopardy, your eyes pleaded for Normality, willing someone to hear your silence, grip you Tightly, not with malice, but with bravery and valour Right now you need that shining knight, that white Horse galloping down the blind alleyway, yet you Know that won't happen for you're already sinking To the floor, the blow comes sharp and stings, warmth Exudes and trickles a path downwards, leaving your Body, finding the cold concrete beneath you, travelling Outwards................

Wrong place.....wrong time
A single Human, alone and weak, is unable to comprehend  the insignificance of its life. But as a whole, Humanity, we are unmeasurable, overwhelming filling space and time with our vivid existance. We consume all other entities with our devistating force. Embodied in thousands upon thousands of infintesimal beings. Humans. We must remember that it is the human that makes up humanity.

Human
You agree When you want to shout, curse, and swear The Almighty....answer this weeping willow Made of concrete air Of unfeeling movement You cower behinds browned bodies, montezuma minds, and your license Power to go as you please, be as you please, please help me to see The inner child trapped in mordant cornerstones, and sitting on your own weight To grasp the folly by the throat and twist him into existance Not so much absolution In agreement with other fancies Prayers unanswered Dwelling on ginger hands and knees In *********** when his course has never enter into being....real Or really close His path to plunge thick into purple passionate trance His path askew from my own Though a followed trendy line A drink When it makes your journey into trees, and speed, and gluttony A laugh When scorned mouth spewed and sput into russet wounds already ***** A smoke When it clogs your memory into patchwork and quilted thoughts unwoven Youre unspoken! You agree?

Just you
Beyond the passion of colour the wind is crawling over trees clawing at loose clothing and things not tethered or secure. Beyond empathic words uttered it sings hollow and then a full roar settling its breath to a sigh as it dies beyond the texture it brings. With nothing to mark its existance except thee.

She told me of the wind
Dont you feel like Life is easier emotionless We try to seize the moment But in the end its always "goodbye" And forced to face reality Because we're all going to die My fake smile is all you see Because we all know the Tears are real, the smile's not me Do we truely know whats inside of us That deep down we are nothing but our broken hearts and lost parts Fallen glass and broken shards We try so hard to realize our strengths So we can mask our greatest weaknesses But in our heart and souls We know what we are... -Terracotta soldiers; A hollow shell Of handcrafted beauty Hidden from a world Ignorant enough to forsake our existance-

~ Terracotta soldier ~
Antimatter mirroring our existance on the pathway of a reverse world Imagine it, time stands still, halts without a will to  continue its flow if it were to possess one to begin with, and everything is but fragile, Illusionary moon, shine on in this distorted realm in which not even gravity is reliable or even trustworthy at this point, up is down here, An imperishable night caught under a spell of eternity, uninterrupted Everlasting, permanently shining, the fake moons appearance is clear, Unremitting, sweetly told as a if it was a lie, the rumours of this world spread more likely like a disease through the ancient, young earth, A line parallel drawn to ours, a dimension coexisting without sense, It appears to be fragile, like a newborn child, the smallest disturbance would mostlikely ruin it's balance, bring tremor upon it wretchedly, But where that life sparkles as then fades, two dimensions surely would overlap, of course, maybe it will be the world you inhabit, no? In the realm of the dead, a loitering, lingering darkness thins the borders of reality and illusion, causing them to exist as one, now with the same heart and soul, a fantasy heaven which became reality, After all, that place is only temporary,one surely could even call it a; Short living eternity, ~ Umi

Short living Eternity
Eskimo Pies.  You have been the backbone of my existance. Bland days and times of no work.   You have sustainted me through it all. Your lucious chocolate and creamy ice cream make my days bearable. Vanilla dripping down my chin, I have you on my side. I will make do with you. You, who have filled my life with sweetness.

ESKIMO PIES
Even plastic collects dust Bright fibres of pink become dull magentas From the countless years and endless days of Still life Sharp lines and smooth contours of artistically machined plastic toys become fuzzy as hazy dust Piles Heaps And overflows From one Single Fact Inactivity? Unappreciated worth? Discontent? Laziness? No None of these The dust collects Piles Heaps Even overflows From USELESSNESS The things that the dust is attracted to That the dust clings to Are the things that in comparison to the things that are imparitive to our existance and our health Are useless Are plastic

Of Plastic and Dust
When we get to see eachother again Let's talk through the night and day Let's make the darkness of the past fade away You haven't left my brain Or my heart Guess you are a piece of art Can't imagine us apart Tons of pain Caused by distance Can't forget your existance Don't forget my name

Fade
With strength and hope I embrace the facts of my existance all restraints have been removed, no more holding back zero resistance free to ascend to the higher levels that I have always strived much sooner than I ever planned here I am, I have arrived through the lies, misconceptions and conformity I have risen above it all strong and confident moving forward I am walking tall free to be who ever I want at any moment if I choose making up the rules of life as I go, no way I can lose so if you pass me in the street and I seem out of place it's because that is where I want to be with a smirk on my face not because I am better than anyone or better than you it's that I have realized that I am free to do anything I have ever wanted to

self awareness
to find real, true beauty just look up at the stars there is no way of knowing who we really are looking into a mirror and as seconds tick by we pretend not to hear them while we wish we could fly our freedom feels anchored but it's all in our heads we are never remembered until we are dead

The Existance of Existentialism
Do birds question their existance? Do bees think they're alive? Does the walrus fight the resistance? Do horses just survive? Does the grass give a rat's *** Do the trees even care? Do the shrubs think the bushes are crass? Do the flowers curse and swear? Do the rolling plains feel plain? Do the mountains feel like a molehill? Does the ocean just go through the motion? Do the valleys lay in alleys like road **** Does the Earth feel worth? Does Uranus feel hanus? Does Jupiter hate its girth? Our Universe is the worst!

Depression Question
We thought it was empty, Until we stepped inside. The broken dreams and shattered hearts, The cries of despair, Lingering spirits reminding us oth their existance. Empty little down, Sad little town, Desolated, destroyed little town. Sweet little shadows, Tender little spirits, Guiding us through the ruin. They never saw it coming, Their surprise fate, Seizied upon them while at play. Blink of an eye, Gone in a flash, Nothing left, No future, only past.

Small Town
Rumors They fly Sometimes it seems they fly Faster then any aircraft Found in conspiracy or in the accepted reality Just the sight of a man entertaining a baby Makes him a good father Seeing a woman with a child giggling to no end Makes her a good mother When all they were trying to do is take care of a young one Rumors Be they good or be they cruel Write the history of the small minds that let them be truth Slowly they could become a weapon from Brahma or an ancient legend Rumors They do not need a body For they possess the foolish minds that believe Only those that find its mistakes Cause by the afflicted who tricked its tale See the true lights of what is said Rumors Let them inside And they will possess you Altering the truth to fit their existance

Rumors
you are right to not believe for you the silent cries that carry into the night do not existence the volume of your tv is adjusted & everything becomes a mute apparition illuminated but not heard. you are right not to believe for you the sounds of gunshots are the popping of fire crackers after holiday barbecues & the screams come from parades of people cajoling down side streets. you are right not to believe for you the only hanging you know exists in laundry whites bleached towels are a must for wiping hands clean & unstained from the bloodied bodies of loved ones. you are right not to believe for you the world doesn't exist beyond these bordered white picket fences & bakes sales until your mexican comes to clean suburbia when will you realize the war to be fought runs beyond 5’o clock rush hour & taking away your son’s ps4?

pain demands to be felt.. that is why you let break ups feel like shards of glass piercing through your skin, "i was using you" feel like acid being pumped through your heart ventricles spewing liquid anguish through your veins you let the memories consume your very existance so all that is left is the skin he once touched, the lips he once kissed and the emotions he still controls.. yes, pain does demand to be felt but you see, i am pain. i embody every syllable of that painful word..pain i am every lie woven intricately into the seams of the pillow used to cushion the blows i inflict. i leave you trapped in the very depths of  your mind, made easy by your naive attempt of grasping onto the words used to lure you in, i love you i am the whispers of motivation urging you to sniff sniff sniff your way deeper into my domain where you are nothing but a chess piece in a battle not easily won. i am the deep seated hunger that devours any sign of "happy"..the breaking, smashing, burning of hope i am a master of deceit, carefully manipulating your thoughts through the simple tug of a string, i am your master. but I was not born like this, I became it..so if you really think about it, I am love, because love was the reason I became pain. this may be confusing, but once again think about it.. love demands to be felt... that is why you sit smiling awkwardly at your phone, why you get butterflies..I mean the whole **** zoo in your stomach when he looks your way, you let your feelings consume your very existence until all that is left of you is the hand he holds so tight, the hair he moves away from your face and the heart you laid right out for him... yes, love demands to be felt.. but you see, I once was love.. I embodied every syllable of that beautiful word love I was the roof over-head when the storms of life came thundering by, I was anything you needed me to be because at the end of the day I didn't want to be anything if I didn't have you. So I let myself go, I became my own foe just so you could have that shoulder, I mean that extra soul to lean on you kept taking and never giving, this one sided love became toxic I took one look at myself and realised that I didn't know who was staring back at me.. much like how a caterpillar becomes a butterfly, but the reverse, I began to shrink. the butterflies turned to moths, the smiles to tears and soon enough, love became pain, and they both demand to be felt.

They say a wild women burnt my soul. coughed up ashes. raised by a whiskey bottle and a pair of loaded dice to roll. She showed me the blues at thirteen. Took me by the hand. Said boy this lifes a party and this one beats anything your young eyes have ever seen. And so the taste was made and a cure i havent found yet. The best of the worst my sweetest regret. Life as a party is a vision of night. We find more answers unasked. Then in the moment of a fight. Back alleys and the quick fix. The redlight reason. And the devils bag of tricks. Snake eyes and your last dime. A slow trains exit. A suitcase of soul with a empty wallet full of time. Half a pint of happiness a empty bottle of blues. The road is a quest. The path yours to choose. Texas heat to a New York chill. Neon cast memories a loner's existance. And a thirst I can never fulfill. Chords echo softley a vast reflection in rhyme. Ive gotta empty bottle for a heart. And a wallet full of time.

Wallet Full Of Time
Once, I was excluded from love, in bitterness I cursed all that I saw, not knowing that this bitterness made me anathema to the very sensations I pursued. I spread hateful ideology, made every effort to share my misery, shouted condemnation at every pair of clasped hands, every kiss I saw made me retch. The bitterness welled up and poured forth from me, reppelling loves valiant attempts at liberating me from my tower cell. From my relatively pleasant existance I fashioned my own tailor fitted hell, which I wore everyday, steadily collecting filth, so soiled I had become. As I lifted the last shovelful from my early grave, and prepared to climb down within with my list of grievances against God stapled to my shirt, so I might never forget, my foot stepped out into the pit but a gentle hand clenched my shoulder and pulled me back from the hole, and I turned and discovered love... It does exist, none need be excluded, if the feeling exists for some all can be included. Love not for the pleasure of it, but for the pain, and strain, so that we may constantly measure it against the ache of loneliness and remind ourselves, that while love may be a neverending battle, surrender to hate brings nothing but ruin.

In the end
Here is a story, not different from others, just to confuse you and make you wonder, it is not much, so dont expect anything at all, its a story about a joker and his downfall. well lets begin from the beginning, before the start, lay a joker, thinking about his past, He kept on laughing at his own jokes, decided to become a comic for the good 'ol folks. He kept on laughing and made others laugh, he finally made a name but got caught in a raft, the wind was agaisnt him and so was time, the water rose high and destroyed his climb. Now the smile turned upside down, its just a demise of another clown, it was the same, everyone kept of laughing, except the joker, who wouldnt stop crying. his identity became a horror, a waste of society, his existance was now a story of gory heirarchy, Irrational being in an imperfect world, he is a reflection of some of the whirls he is the one with no possible partner, a looser in life but a skillful carver. he is the joker, a killer, a master, a cheater, he is the joker near his end he is the joker.......

Exist
I knew you or knew of you I almost knew you I suppose But I didn't get the chance. I'm not sure if the chance was offered or not. I don't know if I could have been your friend, a confidant, (your savior?) I don't know that I could have helped. But maybe... I could have said something, done something, simply sat in your presence until you felt like existance was managable. Until you felt worthy, valued, realized your importance. Until you felt like you could stay. (God, how I wish you had stayed) But before I got the chance... You put that gun to your head. You put that noose around your neck. You put that knife to your wrist. You took one or two pills, too many. You left me here. ALL of you, (even if I never knew you) left me here, and I'll never know if I could have Helped If I could have helped make it okay, manageable, real, made you feel loved. (because I would have loved you) But I want you to know... I wanted to.
