Hypothetical lust Generated electrical impulses, The very same that stirred your heart. Pulse – stifled, still, Cochlear arousal (still) The same that heard "I love you" Physically imprisoned, We tremble from the pain Yours in your mind, mine in my brain

Mind – Brain
was uttered in a computer generated, non-demeaning, gender neutral tone by the impersonal, unemotional, automated, grocery checkout machine. "Enter your customer ID now!" demands the artificial human. "And... if I don't?" I query the metallic shell of what once was a minimum wage employee. There was no reply.

"Hello Valued Customer"
i. mo chroí, do not dismay, we art not chained global slave's, as tis We art ourn father God's chosen; we need to bringeth hope to those lost, wearied and broken. ii. mo bhanríon, these stanza's art ourn song's, ourn voices shalt carry on, as peach-faced lovebird's in the dawn; iii. a chuisle mo chroí, holdeth me closer, embrace mine visage, we must be Argus-eyed, in the coming soon explosional shock, for this terrace of dirt shalt shaketh as rock's, back to the sand- dusted, eleven-fifty-nine's on the clock; iv. We were created together, verily for this reason, to emit forgiveness and compassion, if even for one planetary season;  also we were generated distances ago, then we were soulmates as still now- though then at that time, thou didst not know. I weaved intimately in and back out of thy soul, thine past spirit memory faded, before now I was thy king and thy whole. When we were sent to earth to taketh human form, ourn affections from kingdom's ago were forgotten and mourned, though tis mine lass when I saweth thee again, I kneweth thou were me, as tis I'm thee mine sweet, mine Jane, mine best friend. So now that I haveth thee again, back Into mine reach; we'll spend eternity with the saint's, well learn together, and we shalt teach...... ©Brandon Nagley ©Lonesome poet's poetry ©Earl Jane Nagley ( Filipino rose ) dedication

Home and contentment are synonymous The desire to reach, while innate or evident quiet or curious keeps a continuum over discrepant cultures, the world over An opulence of love and warmth Having one ingredient can make fertile the other One without the match, make an ordinary or secondary batch Making one rich with joy, their other can be broke and remote seeking satisfaction Home is not a location or bricks of residence But a written word in deep established sentiment An atmosphere cloaked in the unfalter The taking of arms to conclude their hold developed in elements of the affectionate No disaster, constructed or natural could alter As I am now, locked in the shadow of shades lost surrendering independent power in a momentary yield, On hands and knees, bloodshot and in need of a shield... In need of my one... the imperative relevance of feeling her That selfish influential significance that creates safe harbor at journeys end Generated by the glow of resolve in the home of her arms contentment

Even as I grow up All I have learned Generated from Living as a scout Everybody proud of me Started when you said I Could fly with the Eagles Only took me 7 years Under your wing I fly Till the end A tribute to my dad. The man who taught me how to fly with eagles. Ill fly with you again someday. I love you.

SpongeBob SquarePants is an American animated television series created by marine biologist and animator Stephen Hillenburg for Nickelodeon. The series chronicles the adventures and endeavors of the title character and his various friends in the fictional underwater city of Bikini Bottom. The series' popularity has made it a media franchise, as well as Nickelodeon network's highest rated show, and the most distributed property of MTV Networks. The media franchise has generated $8 billion in merchandising revenue for Nickelodeon. Many of the ideas for the series originated in an unpublished, educational comic book titled The Intertidal Zone, which Hillenburg created in the mid-1980s. He began developing SpongeBob SquarePants into a television series in 1996 upon the cancellation of Rocko's Modern Life, and turned to Tom Kenny, who had worked with him on that series, to voice the titular character. SpongeBob was originally to be named SpongeBoy, and the series was to be called SpongeBoy Ahoy!, but these were changed, as the name was already trademarked. The series was previewed on Nickelodeon in the United States on May 1, 1999, following the television airing of the 1999 Kids' Choice Awards, and officially premiered on July 17, 1999. It has received worldwide critical acclaim since its premiere and gained enormous popularity by its second season. The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, a feature-length film adaptation, was released in theaters on November 19, 2004, and a sequel is currently in production, with a projected release date of February 13, 2015. On July 21, 2012, the series was renewed and aired its ninth season, beginning with the episode "Extreme Spots".[2][3] Despite its widespread popularity, the series has been involved in several public controversies, including one centered around speculation over SpongeBob SquarePants' intended ****** orientation. The series has been nominated for a variety of different awards, including 17 Annie Awards (with six wins), 17 Golden Reel Awards (with eight wins), 15 Emmy Awards (with one win), 13 Kids' Choice Awards (with 12 wins), and four BAFTA Children's Awards (with two wins). In 2011, a newly described species of mushroom, Spongiforma squarepantsii, was named after the cartoon's title character.

Have you watched the vast Sky? Do you allow yourself to do this? Are there any chances in life To make you provide extra time? In the morning, before Sun-rise The Western Sky will be bright With wonderful display of clouds A beautiful look, Sky will have When Sun comes graciously What a wonderful light display! Announcing His nice arrival Clouds will run ecstatically In the evening when Sun sets Like a shy girl's lovely cheeks Eastern Sky will be romantic Giving red carpet to the Moon After hard-work done for that day Sun will go elsewhere to do duty Twenty four hours are His service No rest at all and so truly unique All the stars come during the night To give us joy and peace and hope Their twinkling will be remarkable They only preserve our happiness The Sky is a place of real bliss As rain and light come from there Heat also is by the Sun generated Moon is a boon supplying wonder Today watch the Sky for a change You will be flooded by thoughts A new idea will emerge in mind Surely this will act as a remedy. mvvenkataraman

Eye that Great Sky
The Creator looked at the elephant and said: I made you big so you could be gentle To the mouse he said: I made you small so you could walk tall But over millions of years you two could exchange places and one become the other. I know I shoved the lot of you in an Ark Because Noah was being a pesk asking for rain when his washing machine ran dry So I had to fill the oceans to stop that old man from complaining all the time. Besides I needed the bark from the trees of the Ark to make me a small tug boat to carry some DNA samples of my own, in case, the lion ate the cow, the tiger chewed on the cat and the fox tricked the rest with his cunning ways You see, my friends, there was no grass, or snakes or bird cages, or trees for the monkeys to swing on. I thought of many things before I gave the building plans to Noah and his sons. Only one was a builder the rest were bums, who never held a hammer or learned how to tie two bits of trees together, leave alone building an ark to hold the worlds whole creation.Thankfully there were no real estate agents pushing the price up or bankers charging interest. The mafia thought of charging an entrance fee for each pair, but before they could do that the rains came pelting down and the tickets got washed away in the storm. So you see the Ark was a joint venture between The Americans and Chinese and Indians because they were willing to multiply quicker than the rest once Mt Sinai rose up to meet the oak leviathan from underneath. And so my dear elephants and mouse and fox and snake and bird and lion and tiger. Noah and his wonderful Ark was a script written well ahead so that Russell Crowe could get a part playing Noah in a computer generated extravaganza where only the actors and actresses who could afford to pay a price to be in it - were involved.

Are we capable of making sensible choices? when our own logic is generated from organic matter; a brain heavily influenced; fueled on random flashes, hormones, pheromones, testosterone, diet, desire, the air we breath, the need to *** or a simple cup of tea; all of which alters our body ~ ((Our chemical bag)); a fragile echo system constantly at odds with other elements. Our fuel, our input influences the way we think, Yet our ego tells us that we are in control; and that we makes our own choices. Put your hands on your hearts people! and tell me how many sensible choices have we acutely made! I'm personally content that some seemingly bad choices have turned out quite nice!

Lights turn on, and it wakes me. I want you to know how it feels like to be in my shoes, just like how you wish that everyone can feel the same as you, and despite all of the feelings in this world that are generated by the same kind of source; love and hate, kindness and cruelty, sadness and happiness, we still fail at agreeing on the only great fate for us as we are reluctant to determine what is really right for us and therefore, in return, we can never leave our mark in any era, any generation that we are in, for the failure to avoid our will to consume from the deep within will ensure that we will endure another war, another famine, another epidemic that can only be undone by us, by having empathy and love towards one another. Lights dim, and it shatters me.

I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is Mass Psychology... Its importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of propaganda. Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions are generated.

Have you ever wondered if this world is the actual hell we live in and if we are being tested by how well we deal? We are living in a place where pain, suffering, and then ultimately death are of everyday existence I understand that perception is everything here and this world is an illusion generated by our perception I am not trying to be a downer but the more I live in this world the more I see it as a nightmare that some days I just want to wake up from This is not coming from my religious beliefs and I am not saying that I am not grateful for everything I do have Compared to a lot of other people in this world I do not have it so bad and I know this.  This is coming from a thought process I have been trying to come to terms with Is there a bright light at the end of this very dark tunnel? Of course we all have different journey's to take to get us to that tunnel but while we are here our paths do cross from time to time and we all have some of the same pains sufferings and even death to overcome My point is this... We are all living in this hell together Let's get through this hell together This thought has become a shining Ray of light in this dark Find some comfort in this and Perhaps there is hope for us all

Deep Thoughts by Melissa S :)
Let’s take a silver train underground to the back streets of Atlantis thru the corrugated iron roots & then to the peak itself, to the saddle of the last ridge past strewn boulders, finally meandering thru cascading snow wearing miner’s hats on the perpendicular dark night & going up to the edge of the Southern Cross where we reach at last the pure white glistening glaciers & begin to chant over bones in rags of Scorpio Armless in the sticky substance how could they ever have had a chance? Permission will not be required only poems of blood offered to the memory of TREE It is not ice which is eternal but the fury of the absolute separating the void from the spirit of man, uplifting like life when it is used against itself, that is, Radical Love -- & again, we are reduced to living beings Caught by the instant we are taken away We live in the imprint of the flame & we are helmeted within the internal blackness where the ray begins its passage across the indignant sky Vain clouds uncaring in a tangle of crossbeams culminate in the hermaphroditic mirror of the epileptic dancer asleep And during sleep the light is joined to the light It is all a matter of getting up and then to abandon the pain It is there that the journey beings in the self generated flame of Spontaneous Combustion (Swayambhunath) The main line running counter to the triangle comprising the MAELSTROM, the DOLDROMS & the SARGASSO SEA where sleeping Atlanteans dream forever, this line, this battlefield of the ages, crosses the divide of my most wandering backdoor heart. We will all have to go if we want to reappear in the rhythm of the ritual It’s the wheel of fools spinning over my bed If I put my left foot first they will find a way to call me by that name tracking tremors like glyphs on drunken walls in the negative palace just before taking eave of my senses the white powder dissolves in the sunlight & making noise like a peacock he hops on one foot up the mountain.

I feel a grim satisfaction as mud splatters on my white shoes. What an appropriate metaphor for early adulthood. My problems are not my own. The sociological imagination has never seemed so applicable. We’ve all been dosed up On dashes of passion, splashes of intelligence and just enough anxiety and depression to approach existential nihilism and We’re fed these lies of individuality but We Know we are only products of our youth and culture, ones of many in the long production line We claim We are Art, but We Feel we’re just generated from streams of code, prepared to fight to the death for some algorithm that doesn’t even matter And so I protest I can’t just be a number I am flesh and blood, my knees are buckling under the weight of this artificial perfection. I’m not just a number, My eyes are staring at the the marks that determine my worth, knowing success is my only option i am not just a number My sanity is sinking and drowning and constantly fighting to stay afloat But I am not just a number. - My mind tells me I’m not making it-- How are these other people making it? I’m determining my worth on sets of standards that are as worthy as dust And it is with these standards i am told I am just a number. I feel like I can no longer speak because I’ve been shouting at the top of my lungs I AM NOT JUST A NUMBER But my voice is too quiet And the world is too loud. I’m so tired of trying to be heard. Yet these words still sound better when I scream them, not just scrawl them down on scraps of paper. for someone so happy I'm so very angry. for someone so happy I'm so very sad.

my heart is wire and sinew processing speeds and generated power a motherboard that beats, beats, beats you're a human, but baby, I'm a machine I'll keep powered until the day my software is outdated my ram slows down the blue screen of death flickers where I never reboot again trade me in for a newer model my feelings are connected to electricity I've already processed my own abandonment and have already grieved your absence in a million different codes of binary I remember your hands on my keys you pushed all of my buttons knew every function inside and out you turned me on and kept me going you are the spark that ran my code but now, despite my own wishes I'm made to keep running I'll whirl and click and buzz and work and for a moment, I nearly believed that a machine could feel love

/// After born, a child subconsciously engaged with the nature she (nature)doesn't play well as usual, all the time of his life because someone somehow plays the negative role with her He who does not know the life,   and doesn't know how and why she originated the waterfall, And generated a vigorous stream but when someone cuts in the face of a river, and moving water whatever he liked otherwise, his own purpose ( in a negative sense) Day by day the river moved slowly slowly and slowly, water didn't carry, the overdue sediments toward the sea day by day, the river grew inflated and becoming a silted bed One day the rain came as cats and dogs slowly and slowly, it has made the flood over the flood plain and swift away lands and roads then the water has seemed useless The child grew older now he feels consciously about the worst work that someone did with her And he (older child) thinks, what does he feel? when someone cuts in the face of a river /// @Musfiq us shaleheen

when someone cuts in the face of a river
there is paint it peels from my eyes in long gaseous ribbons it is punctuated by a bright blindness where methodologies reach no conclusions paint peels from my ears in uncontested echoes projecting a self generated audible universe paint peels from my mouth in black storms of expanded consciousness leaving behind a particulated paralized partition that leaves me disconnected in a correspondence of color A field of snow turning blue under moonlight in accord with the peeling of paint like a light emitted by relative thought paint peels, paint peels, paint peels

Paint Peels
She has a luminescence about her A way of outshining the neon and fluorescent That cling to her curves as she dances beneath them I stood there, in my second-hand persona, wearing a mask of bravado, now whimsical with its mouth agape, staring as she made love to the music. I recollected myself, remembered to breathe, swallowed my heart, and dared to move closer. The rhythmic pulse of the music threatened to crush me as my feet touched the floor- my head still in the cloud generated by her heat, that permeated every molecule of my body. The closer I got, the harder it was to keep from succumbing to the lack of air. "Remember to breathe. You're sweating. Abort. NO. Play it cool. You're cool." I could have pieced together A thousand words, pulled from the ether and crafted into exactly-what-she-wanted-to-hear, But she had taken my air. My tongue wouldn't move with my lips To form a simple hello. I just stood there in my mask. No longer whimsical. Nearly desperate and certain that I would die right there. Then, in a move that writes love songs, that creates sunsets and shifts paradigms, SHE, this caramel-skinned goddess Wove her warm, illuminated fingers into mine And pulled me into that dance That she was sharing only with the music. Not breathing again. Keep moving. Stop thinking. Just be. Right now, just be. So, I was. Dead to time and space, alive to the moment and the music, Her touch, the light and the curves. She held to me as if she read my mind; perhaps I wear my heart in my eyes. Eyes that she seemed to pull my soul out of To drown it in hers, as she danced With me. To me. Through me. Beyond me. But with me, as though I were the light and the music, and she wasn't done making love.

Dancing on Light

The craving had been More of a need As of late Energy taken Energy generated Or one could also say One cultivated One gave away Every little thought That you think Isolated from the rest of you With steel walls And the tallest gates Barricade myself In a little Me sized Cave Wouldn't be surprised If I never             Even                 Came Out!
