"hypothetical" poems
*Inebriated blue cloud, I know you well enough libertine ways you have make you a lover of deep thunder and meek rainbow and also a chit of a lark that loses itself in a song be it is in grief or mirth. Strange is the ways of my heart, how much I long to fall in love with you and proclaim this to the world scheming to disrupt the pleasures one seeks without any reason at all "Look! love has no limits, no reason even the lovely cloud, softness personified caresses my foliage with sensuous abandon kisses me with her wispy lips of moisture" I know you understand, though unmindful of my unbridled passion making breaches in the limits, I have no illusion about our improbable union. True, how can we live happily ever after? I envy your gift of wings though you have none visible, you borrow it from the wayward wind, too willing to carry your sweet load around. I stood on the hill top, wistfully thinking that you will come and take me within your soft folds though I am a tree with deep running roots that has become a restraining thing. Freedom without any limit gets you inebriated every minute, your love for love,  makes you desirable you live in the present, suspend thoughts on time to come as it is hypothetical, you say. You are in a hurry to roam wherever lovers lead you one after the other do you have an urge to dissolve and pour- as water, without any remorse? Do you know my  penitence for your love on this hilltop is a true sacrifice? My love for you doesn't bring anything except my wilting hour after hour. Let me be on your blue breast for moments when my boiling love will seek your shining center that melts, melts we'd freeze as one, how long my darling? Time would simply stand still to a distance, i'd be transported, where tree or cloud means nothing we are an incessant rain lasting for ever.*

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
You're Selfish. Sometimes I can't stand you. I want to rip my hair out the minute you speak. I want to throw a can of green beans at you in hopes of breaking your toe. Is that mean? Although I know you have trouble with things from the past What about my issues with the things I can't quite grasp? My ****** is broken! I'm sorry I can't care as much about your past as i used to. Our hypothetical children are all I can think of. If we can't procreate how do I go on? That hole in my chest.. You know, the one they call a heart.. It needs that bond. The one formed between a mother and child. But still... sometimes I can't stand you!! How do we make children if we can't even get along? This would be easier if I didn't love you so much.

Frustrated.
20:00 - Dinner Alone but entertained I like it that way 21:00 - Skype calls Not having talked for four days I've missed her yet the occasional silence is nice 22:00 - Fillers Scrolling through pictures and sharing thoughts A pleasant and calm feeling 23:00 - Rethinking The first hypothetical theories about the day Laughing at the slip-ups to push them away 00:00 - Reflecting Doubting choices throughout the week Faking a small smile 01:00 - Endurance A familiar feeling spreads Downcast eyes and a facade of peace 02:00 - Creative New ideas and thoughts fill up the space Pick and choosing which ones would hurt the most now 03:00 - Idealistic Reading stories about happiness, pain and change Wondering what will become of me 04:00 - Closure Horrible thoughts tearing down the last walls Curling up and crying again 05:00 - End Following a familiar routine before sleep comes Cradling the broken mind

The falling stars in this ironic night make majesties out of those cubicle-ridden New Yorkers' routine Tuesday night daydreams, where they make macabre escape routes out of every perfectly-placed window piercing the concrete sentences that escalate from Ground Zero. Your law offices, corporate ******* headquarters, are all bursting at the seams with these drones, the falling stars of the human race, all composed of 14 different shades of grayscale; could've been should've been could've been shootin' stars that year they were promised lives of upper middle class incomes and Lexus dealerships bought to dent their status on the neighborhood, but that sparkle's been emaciated by the truth, the underwhelming spectacle of realization accentuated by the clicking and the clacking of company keyboards, each little click gnawing more at their patience than the next; the faceless brush strokes gawk through that window, their plans less hypothetical over the calendar years. "I can hear it calling me from miles away," says Copy #90045280, "see, they SPEAK to me, man, tell me to transcend the hurdle of the windowsill and make my rendezvous with an asphalt avenue, to join the other casualties of this rut-infested nation in a life with the real stars, falling and shooting and jettisoning alike, throbbing lights through dark sky silk and into the hearts of even the most robotic of this catalog culture, and I frightfully, excitedly, must listen."

If I told anyone I was ***** they wouldn’t believe me I live in a world that preaches against hypothetical violence but when that **** comes into your life, everyone pushes it away. I remember, no I don’t remember, I can barely remember his name. I think it started with a “C”. I think he was from Minnesota. I think we were on a sixteen hour flight. I think he smiled at me. I think I smiled back, because why the **** wouldn’t I. I think he took that as a green light. I think I shut my eyes to try and sleep. I think he took that as a green light. I am fifteen. I think too little of his advances and trust society enough for me to rest. I know that was a mistake. I know I woke up to a blanket around me that wasn’t there before. I know I woke up to his palm pressed in my pants. I know I woke up screaming. I know I couldn’t open my mouth. I know I was screaming. I know my mother was on that same plane three rows back. I was fifteen. I told my friends and they never believed me. I haven’t told a soul since. Why did he walk away from that unscratched while I have been carrying it around like a dead animal for three years? Why do men think they can own what they can see? Let me tell you what I can see: Five people who asked me why I didn’t fight back. Four people that were sitting around me and claimed to see him putting the cover on me, yet did nothing. Three of his friends I saw later on the trip who praised him for what he accomplished upon seeing what I looked like. Two eyes in the mirror that cry almost everyday. And one crack in that same mirror that will never go away.

Universe has no taste. With haste, All runners run the same race, Winners reaching their last breath finish line. Could be chance or accident, Either way I'm happy with it. So much worrying and anticipation, Just lifts to dissipate, On such a long awaited day. Should it be taken seriously? I hear fickle people go both ways

EAST BOSTON, 1996 ON THE BUS Franz Wright It's one thing when you're twenty-one, and I was way past twenty-one. With unshaven face half concealed in the collar of some deceased porcine philanthropist's black cashmere rag of a coat, I knew that I looked like a suicide returning an overdue book to the library. Almost everyone else did as well, but I found no particular solace in this; at best, the fact awakened some diverting speculations on the comparative benefits of waiting in front of a ditch to be shot alone or in company of others, and then whether one would prefer these last hypothetical others to be friends, family, enemies, total or relative strangers. Would you hold hands? Or would you rather like a good **** sapiens monster employ them to cover your genitals? What percentage would lose bowel control? And given time restrictions - and assuming some still had the ability to move - would ostracism result? Anyway, I knew the rules on this bus. No eye contact: the eyes of the terrified terrify. Look like you know where you're going, possess ample change to get there, and don't move your lips when you talk to yourself: the destroyed and sick, the poor, the hungry and the disturbed estrange. The badly dressed estrange, even, and that is uncalled for. The degree of one's power to estrange will increase in direct proportion to the depth of need for others. Do not cry. This can only bring about, on the one hand, an instant condition of banishment from the sole available companionship, or on the other, a near fatal beating (one more disappointment). Just follow the simple instruction if you ever come here. It's easy to remember - any idiot can do it. Don't cry, the world has abandoned us.

I wasn't always so easily discouraged. I used to bristle with enthusiasm. I glowed with it. It didn't matter if the task was simple, or tedious, or daunting, or boring. As though on rails, I slammed into each and every task with terrific force. But I got older. Things that used to come easily grew slippery. What I used to do without thinking twice, I found myself over-thinking. I threw the brake. I ground to a halt. Finally, I became idle. A left-over husk of a kernel that's already been popped. I drowned myself with doubts. Hypothetical situations that might never happen. I lived in fear of what might go wrong. So I began to watch everything go wrong, as though I was helpless. I was no less able. I was no less compassionate. But I had grown wary. Of what? What was it that, out of nowhere, caused me to slow down? I guess I looked down and realized that if I fell, I would not be getting back up. When you're young, you have no worries, because nothing is relying on your success. So you mess up a math problem. You'll get it eventually. So you botch things with that cute girl who sits across from you. You're young, you'll get it. Re-assurance, faithfully, unwaveringly. A safety line should I fall. But I never really fell, did I? So why am I laying down like I have? Get up. Get up. I worry about everything. I worry that I will fail. I dread what comes, what I can't avoid. But time, and time, again, it comes, and I miraculously don't die when it hits, because I've been bracing for a train-wreck impact, a force that will really, truly, finally, definitely lay me flat for good. I close my eyes, and brace. But the crash never comes. The silence that was continued to be. I turn behind me, but there's no train there. I'm starting to realize, with relief, (with horror), that maybe all I needed to do was step off the track. I look down, and realize, with a first-creeping then-howling laughter that I was never on the track to begin with. I look off where the track is. There's no train there, either. Maybe there never was. Maybe there never will be.

A man I am meant to love told me the amount of skin I show represents my right to consent. Flesh = Yes Clothes = No "Deserving" is a word he used. A grandfather told his grandchild she deserved to be abused based off the length of her skirt, but this is old news; same story. Only, I've heard it one time too many and now I'm sick of it. "Devastated" over my hypothetical **** he'd said, as though his feelings mattered more than my right to my body. Well, **** him. I'm tired of prioritising people whose opinions are so archaic they can't see the crime in their words. And his words hurt. He defended the 'nature of men', claiming its an inbreed instinct, tried to explain the appeal of women as though I don't already know.   Jokes on him. I'm gay. But I've never been under the illusion it's okay to objectify or intimidate your way into a person's life. I've never felt entitled to a person I've liked And there lies the generational divide Because neither has my brother. Being "unable to control certain urges" is just another lie they feed you to perpetuate a culture of **** I'm seventeen, and yet I know the fear a predatory gaze can cause, I've been leered at to the extent I honestly thought this is it. This is the moment I've been warned about. And then I thought "It's my own fault. It's dark, it's after nine, I went out running in only a sports bra, of cause I'm going to find trouble" because I forgot that I'm not an object. I'd been fed the same message so frequently it was ingrained into my fight or flight response. Doesn't that speak for itself? I'd been conditioned to accept the blame before the finger was even pointed. So when my grandfather looked me in eye and said he thought girls where asking for it by the way they dressed, I didn't have the energy to suppress my response. I asked him if I'd been out drinking with friends wearing a sheer dress and matching bralette, and I was ***** would he consider it my fault. His answer was met with stunned laughter. Yes, he'd consider me to blame, and indicated his disappointment should weigh on my conscious. I am shamed I have the same genetics as such a man. At least I've learned to drown out his words so they can no longer effect me.

Reincarnation We all die And that’s a must Eventually we turn to atomic dust The atoms have been And always will be From before we stepped out of The primeval sea They cannot die Or multiply They just are And that’s no lie So when people say We have not lived before Just turn the key And point to the door As we are all made From stuff of the past And scientists pin their claim To that mast So reincarnation It is a fact And in this life We have to act So sceptics you can argue all night But of the above there is no fight The soul and the spirit on the other hand May be discovered if it is planned Like the higg’s boson particle Which is hypothetical You have the right To think Soul is theoretical

When the man at the hardware store asks, what shade of blue are you looking for sugar, to paint the walls of our hypothetical son's room, I would have said heartbreak, the same shade of heartbreaking blue as his daddy's eyes. Ironic, because I would have rooted for a gender neutral colour, an agnostic upbringing and a liberal education, but somewhere down this erratic, dysfunctional relationship, I stopped caring, or perhaps, cared only of you. Since you left there's nothing to care about, there's no you, there's no us, there's no motivation, my priorities, values and aspirations are still maintaining a distance, I'm feeling a heartbreaking shade of blue. Like that one time I got high on dried out **** I was completely aware of every stage of this breakup, the shock, the disbelief, the sadness, the pain, the regret, until it stopped. The world has come to a standstill, leaving me tripping between spring and snowflakes on the windowsill, I'm not coming down from the high, or low, I should have got you out of my system 4 years ago. It's not a linear process, said my friend, and I know what he means, because for everyday I get through without thinking of you, I spend weeks curled up in pain in bed or on the floor, feeling a heartbreaking shade of blue. Kept awake at night, weary, paranoid and deluded, suffocated, drowned in despair, sometimes even in air, in the shallow words, empty promises and plans made, thrown into solitary confinement among hundreds of other people, breaking me, when I'm already broken. All while you stripped me of my dignity, intuition and optimism, disregarded my needs, exploited my insecurities and wasted my heart, I thought I knew you, come to think of it, I don't think your eyes are blue.

Academic conversations about consent are a pure form of agony, Listening to students and Professor toss around the word like it's a hypothetical commodity, As if there is question that autonomy and dignity belong to every living thing in that room. We are asked to dissect the most intimate of physical safeties as if this is a lesson in biology, Solve 'consent' like a particularly challenging calculus problem, Pretend as if this didn't happen in the confines of my body. It's excruciating to have to take an equation, We'll start with y=mx+b, And calculate which variables determine basic human decency. I was young, female, gay, autistic, bipolar, Clinging to his professions of love like they could stitch the gaping emotional wounds, And somehow that didn't make me human when he did the math. I don't know how to argue, Professor, with which philosophical tools, Professor, that I was a person, Professor, When he decided to **** me.

Calculating Consent
I like to pretend that I have a tough exterior That my mind is strong And that the words and actions of others Don't bring me down But that couldn't be further from the truth I'm so weak I'm pathetic It takes seconds No time at all For my mind to transport me to a place A place where I think I'm hated A place where I believe I'm unwanted I'm so vulnerable at all times When one little thing doesn't go as I expected I freak out I assume the worst I make up hypothetical situations in my head Situations in which nobody loves me And nobody cares for me Situations in which I'm ignored with ease And forgotten quickly It probably sounds selfish As if I solely care about what people think of me But in actuality It stems from a deep self hatred I hate myself in such a way That I couldn't possibly imagine a world Where people could genuinely love me and care for me It's no wonder my relationships fail With not only lovers But with family and friends as well

Pretending
i hope, i try to hope --to believe-- believe me, i try to trust in trust i think i feel, or think or know there isn't any code that satisfies though maybe there's an uber-uber-ultra-meta code beyond what even codes can mean? meh. i enjoy the hypothetical, Paris in a bottle, fairness for all sentient beings, faith in nothing comprehensible, an English teapot circles Jove from afar or all that's uncontrollable, for some all-purpose good to decorate the brackish, ocean truth. and uncertain science is another case, mistrusting all, testing daring thoughts with razor sight, to sharpen speech and challenge all to flex the truth into a fitness ground on which to stand, objective stern and method doubt to peer and scan the detail bare, denude minutiae into ever smaller parts, expanse of raw and empty space attuned, to vibrant nothingness rebound muons, gluons, tauons, quarks and bosons --Higgs the boon for popular appeal, to bridge or monumentalize the science-mystic gap appall the ghosts that Galileo keeps for company i enjoy the fantasy, dragons in a flask, perfect love for all, dancing in the dark in joy regardless of the shutter thicken dust

trust?
In the air, floating just next to the window solidly constructed as sure as the golden highway stretching from Frisco across the Bay looking square as the acres of boxcars north on the interstate on the south side of Chicago, it's all atoms... This morning my son postulated to me a so-far unrealized condition relating to matter transmitters and, probably, hyperspace. "What would happen, " he asked, "if some guy transported himself inside a big rock?" Indeed. Putting on my ears, I considered the situation.  Would the hypothetical solid mass of rock give way, shudder just enough to allow the insertion of a soft, squishy human being?  Or would the spaces in their respective atoms--rock's and human's--intermesh neatly with each other?  Molecular integration?  But such a challenge to the atomic bonds holding the things together might result in a nasty atomic accident. Would that leave a human-shaped void inside the solid rock, a mold exact down to the finest details of skin texture and even eyelashes? Imagine the crystal-filled waters seeping down to find such a hole--Behold!! Geode Man. Holding my silver pen extended like a rapier before me, I dissect the wispy chunks of smoke. The balance of air that gave them form is destroyed.  They are no more.

Allow me to show myself to you Before you paint a picture of me without a reference Let me show you what beauty looks like Below the surface of the skin I’ll show you the flowers in my mind They’re so vibrant you’ll think it’s magic If you tried to recreate them, you’d never be able to find a shade that matches just right Some of these flowers might be wilted, but they’re still growing I try to be like them I’ll walk with you Down the spiraling staircase, from the garden of my mind We’ll walk among bookcases filled with my thoughts In a giant library of ideas My mind is a castle With thick walls And moats deeper than your imagination The drawbridge is almost always closed If you see it open, you know that’s one of the good days My castle is built of similes and metaphors so strong They could shatter a window better than any rock ever could I use diction as bricks I built this castle myself out of literary devices and pure magic My hypothetical brain castle is full of more secrets than you might think There are trap doors down every hallway Hidden rooms full of memories i like to keep to myself My castle has a dungeon I like to lock away the things I don’t want to think about There are doors that don’t open, in my castle Keys i lost a long time ago When i lose another key, it’s called “forgetting” Usually I don’t even notice There are vines creeping up the side of my castle Things that shouldn’t be there, but they won’t go away Later, you’ll realize they made it more beautiful Sometimes, I mistake the castle for a prison I forget that these walls are meant to protect me, not keep me sealed away My castle looks more like a cell, than a home I feel lost among in my library of ideas The books full of my thoughts seem to be written in a language i do not recognize I fall down trap doors i forget are there, and i mistake the flowers as weeds My castle looks more like a cell, than a home And all I want is to escape my own mind

* Awaken refreshed, hush the alarm, time for another caper, cuddle with the kitty, good morning, my fuzzy lil slayer! Feed the furballs, cereal for me, start the coffee maker, may be a good day today, at least it looks good on paper. Drain the main, check the mirror, what-up my _playa_— wait a sec, is it my self-hate, or am I a little greyer? Inhale my morning nicotine with a sugary caffeine chaser, hazelnut and doubt, mmm, that's my favorite flavor... Brush and shave, step into the Hypothetical Argument Simulator, hope follows soap down the drain—oh well—see ya later! All dressed up, glance to verify the happiness imitator, hold my chin up high, but only for the cologne sprayer. Front door locked, start the car, on the lookout for hidden radar, try to outrun the bitterness, traffic jam, wish this were single-player. Make it to work in one piece, if just the outer layer, brain boiling beneath, my good old trusty traitor. *

Illogical Progression
Remember? Do you? *The verses of the Mahabharata, Where Draupati begged to let her go, Where being a wife of the Pandavas made her no different from the unmarried women.* Remember? Do you? *When inside 1 in 10 houses, A little girl complains to her mum,   It hurts me in there Maa.* Remember? Do you? *The night, When a girl lay all naked and battered on the road, When a friend of her's was as helpless as the lost kid at the course.* Remember? do you? The nights when people marched with candles in their hands, The days when we witnessed protests. *Days after days, Months after months, Years after years, Didn't you, All of you, tried to build us?* The ones who were too small to understand, The ones who were capable enough to understand, And the ones who understood what all this actually meant. *From the cheap comments passed To the guidelines to dress-up,* You filled our heads, With the thoughts which were never meant to be there. From all those sad old lines to the new generation trends, You made us cautious yet scared. While there were dreams to be accomplished, And words that were unsaid, *Your efforts to build us, Made us question our own existence.* *With every tantrum and argument we throw, We have something for you to know, you know,* Caging us won't do us any good, While letting us live without the not so needed guidelines will do. Set us free and cage the ones who needs so, For the day you would realise, *Is merely a hypothetical concept you would know.*

Life is a sacred journey. No two are the same. Respect for divergence is paramount to a holistic experience. Life is not about status-quo or expectations, t'is simply what's made thereof Lyphe is a sacred opportunity not to be taken lightly Our Bodies are our umbilical vessels which tether us as mortals to "Reality," which, in itself, seems to me to be a reduction of potentials from chance to actuality such ephemeral eternety; infinite limitations; actualized potentials; possible paths- these are but some of the koan-like attributes which lead me to use the rather ambiguous and ambitious term "sacred." Truly, it becomes whatthefucksoever One may well will to create thereof. Action is Manifestation, yet Thought begets Action. Therein lies the sacred gift of Life. 'T'is all too oft taken for granted. Every living being (i am convinced) has an equally vivid depth of experience and I find it more than somewhat offensive that humans (with a lowercase H) feel they are the penultimate organism. All is One in that existence, itself, tethers us all to everything and probably even beyond, and so to be so hubristic and arrogant as to assume a hierarchy so convieñantly crested by mere **** Sapiens Sapiens* seems to me to be an anthrocentric and narcissistic projection of that meddlesome ages-old archetype of the "Ego," that is to say "God," whatthefuckever that means! Find it in thyself to be humble enough to accept that each and every iota of "Creation" is, by virtue of association, equally sacred; divine. Heirarchy, thus, seems to be a manifestation of some desire for order; control; a yearning to alleviate some hypothetical insecurity as a result of being essentially "absolute, infinite" (vis-a-vis the domain of Consciousness) yet contained within a vessel that is mortal, and, thus, ephimeral. The Ego doth so loathe it's own limitations: too bad it's far too arrogant to realize that most of the limitations it experiences are illusions, allusions; charades of an insatiable Consciousness Hell-bent on experiencing something it won't redily allow itself to experience! What a Holy fuckton of incredulous, ineffable, impalpable, inspirational **** that would be, eh?! (insert interrobang) I am me (I think...) as thou art thee; so why can't that just be good enough? Could it be? What obstruction precludes such harmonious divergence? I reckon 't'is but us; and very little else, indeed!

Get over it. You are. And that’s just too bad isn’t it? Good for you, you, you. Just can’t wait to see what’s next. Just can’t wait to see what matters to you more. You going to keep getting upset? Because I’m going to keep getting irritated. And consuming all that makes me forget that you’re unhappy. Don’t care. At least I won’t if I keep telling myself that I won’t. I don’t care if it takes forever. And it doesn’t matter how much I don’t understand at the moment. Because I understand it now. And it doesn’t matter how much you love the lyrics or the fact that they are lyrics in themselves. They mean something concerning the moment. And you said you’re faking until the morning. And the music cannot be loud enough. Nothing drowns out the fact that I know the truth. The neighbors do too, and that is why I won’t turn down the music. But I could go all night, I’ve done it before, When someone else has failed me, because guess what? Everyone does. I can have a relationship and believe in it or I can have something I fake, but whatever I have is opposite of whatever the victim feels. So tell me what you think you feel and I’ll tell you that on principle alone that you are wrong and indifferent. ***** to be you. But I can sit here all day and keep going. Because it has been so wrong, And without metaphors everything is said instead of implied. And I am tired of lying anymore. Guess I don’t believe in what is going on anymore. Let’s get hypothetical, Then nothing seems as serious, And I can lie about it in the morning, just as you do. Maybe I imagine everything that goes on and I have no idea. Maybe you’re an idea, and you don’t really exist. I think I don’t really care. I’ll wake up and spend my life pretending, And it will feel great, Because since you think that I am just a mess, I can show you what I am really hiding by not actually showing you in any symbolic or secretive way. It’s too bad you act like you care, Because in turn you will act hurt. But thankfully I’ll know different. And feel no regret when I’m done with this.
