You've got a white scarf, but it's unreliably so I could count on it to be white for many years Until last year, when it didn't quite resemble snow It changed colors, and brought up many fears Like will you make it til tomorrow? and will you still be here? You used to wear it like it embodied majesty Like you were a lion and it was your mane Curling around your neck and screaming of divinity I know that mane better than I know your name (buddy) The leaves will change and your scarf will too Your head will bump mine, and I'll bump yours too I'm running from my thoughts and the truth This might be all for naught and tomorrow you Will be here still, and I won't have to say goodbye To your scarf, your mane, our collective life Maybe your heart will still be kept in mine, Released only when our heads collide Your personality is truth Your personality is you I try to ask others to be like you but they can't That plight is wrong and an ineffective chant Your heart, your personality, your truth Will be held in my heart regardless of whether or not tomorrow I see you And I do see you. For a while there, you were hiding behind your disease But now you're able to come out of your shell with ease And now I can have another collection of moments with you Your personality Your truth And you are truth. For a year I thought you were gone and that the next Moment I saw you, you'd be descending into a grave You would be gone and only accessible through memories Your truth Your personality And you are personality. It pained me every time I saw you, thinking I wouldn't see It and how you walked and how you cried for water when You needed it. I'd trip over you, and trample you, but you You are truth You are personality You're here today, eternally in my heart You're here tomorrow, and when we are apart A year down the road, and a plethora more You'll be in my heart forevermore The part of me that you bring out will never exist again on this earth And your white scarf will never be seen by my brown eyes But I can hold you here Right here in my heart And you can pur And I can contemplate when you'll bump my head again

White Scarf
You've got a white scarf, but it's unreliably so I could count on it to be white for many years Until last year, when it didn't quite resemble snow It changed colors, and brought up many fears Like will you make it til tomorrow? and will you still be here?

Torrential rain forms an interference pattern deep within the puddles of the soul, whilst vegetation gains sustenance. Electricity may be a force to be reckoned with because it is a commodity which has monetary significance. Multicultural delicacies are a work of art in La Cucina Toscana, and I wholeheartedly acknowledge your internal drives. We truly are a deep river which is never the same when it is stepped into more than once. But we can balance it all out, because relativism tells us that there are no rules. How absolutely ineffective is such a position. I am amazed. Just think about how we determine the consistency of seemingly genuine interpersonal transactions. If you want to find healing, then we must look to the howling winds of Siberia, where solitary journeys are sealed with a definite song of permission.

Oedipus Appetites
In this Developed Nation, a 19 year old woman sleeps in a bag in a door way. In this Developed Nation, a working family of four relies on the local food bank. In this Developed Nation, grandmothers live on a pittance and die lonely. In this Developed Nation, my friends use drugs to fill a spiritual chasm. In this Developed Nation, stateless refugees are kept in cages while processed. In this Developed Nation, slave labour is abolished, but persists. In this Developed Nation, the media patronizes and panders to the lowest common denominator. In this Developed Nation, the unscrupulous employers bulldoze workers rights.

This Developed Nation?
Nothing but the truth, is to be expected You haven't sensed the silence like I've felt it The moment's gone But we still hold on Leaving our efforts ineffective Defenseless We managed to ignore all this tenseness And i stressed it... This event; we promised we wouldn't mention On the battlefield alone Though, haven't you learned your lesson? Afraid to let go The memories resting so deep in our souls Sometimes, sometimes All that's left is goodbye.

non ******* factor
I could put it into specifics by describing your toothpaste. No matter how recently you had bought it, that sorry tube was always a mangled mess. Twisted, creased, folded plastic or whatever it was, topped with a messy, half-open, broken-hinged, ineffective cap. Slathered with the blue-and-white residue of rushed mornings and tired nights. Exhausted. Does toothpaste try? It gets the job done, sure. But you probably waste half the toothpaste by destroying the tube like that. You were like this with many things. Exhausted, a little bit crumpled and always partially wasted. Like toothpaste, I know you were always trying, and you nearly always succeeded at whatever you were doing, you were just often left with something not finished to your own standards. Dissatisfied with your own success. As I'm sure toothpaste is when you have a fine smile but still end up needing a filling again. Toothpaste does a good job, you must understand. We are just sometimes careless, and we sometimes don't have the time we need. We all still end up needing to schedule a dentist's appointment once in awhile. Nobody likes the dentist. They’re bound to be good people, dentists, but I’ve never met anyone that doesn’t dread the dentist’s throne. Really, we’re supposed to avoid them - the whole goal is to never have reason to see the dentist, right? But we always do. For a regular check-up at least, if we can remember to book the appointment, as much as we may want to get out of it. Something that should be so easy to get out of, had you just brushed your teeth right all the time. So toothpaste is never as effective as you want it to be. But maybe that’s what makes it so satisfying - squeezing the life out of that tube, you can feel like you have power over the inevitable. That’s what you wanted.

~ *Prescience of dawn: a sunny place for shady people. Long shadows on the lawn of a thin pixelated crowd, in parade of blood red sorrows. But your curtains are always drawn. You hide behind smooth and sterile surfaces. Finish your collapse and stay for breakfast. Buildings aren't haunted, people are.* ~

The Ineffective Disconnect
They tried to replace The teachers With robots And computer Programs only The human teacher Had been deemed Inefficient And ineffective They were replaced By robots who Had been downloaded With all necessary information Well what do you think Now that your child Is being taught By a robot These robots Are not kind Nor will they console Your child if he fails Some people are pulling Their children out Of public schools Because they want them To be home schooled By human beings Well, I have to say I don't blame them

ALERTS TO FINANCIAL AND MILITARY THREATS IN 2012 EUROPE By John Cleese (British writer, actor and tall person): The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent events in Syria and have therefore raised their security level from "Miffed" to "Peeved." Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to "Irritated" or even "A Bit Cross." The English have not been "A Bit Cross" since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out. Terrorists have been re-categorized from "Tiresome" to "A ****** Nuisance." The last time the British issued a ****** Nuisance" warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada. The Scots have raised their threat level from ****** Off" to "Let's get the ******** They don't have any other levels. This is the reason they have been used on the front line of the British army for the last 300 years. The French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from "Run" to "Hide." The only two higher levels in France are "Collaborate" and "Surrender." The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France 's white flag factory, effectively paralyzing the country's military capability. Italy has increased the alert level from "Shout Loudly and Excitedly" to "Elaborate Military Posturing." Two more levels remain: "Ineffective Combat Operations" and "Change Sides." The Germans have increased their alert state from "Disdainful Arrogance" to "Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs." They also have two higher levels: "Invade a Neighbor" and "Lose." Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels. The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish navy. Australia , meanwhile, has raised its security level from "No worries" to "She'll be alright, Mate." Two more escalation levels remain: ****** I think we'll need to cancel the barbie this weekend!" and "The barbie is cancelled." So far no situation has ever warranted use of the last final escalation level. A final thought -" Greece is collapsing, the Iranians are getting aggressive, and Rome is in disarray. Welcome back to 430 BC."

I am worn down, exhausted and depleted; tired of self. I am torn down by the mediocrity of men and women that cannot see the façade that blinds themselves and captures their thinking, rendering them ineffective, therefore they lash out with false perceptions, unwilling to embrace and acknowledge the error that lies within their own garden of eden and deception locks their tongues tightly choking out the very breath used to speak hypocritically of others. From the outside in I see myself standing in a crowded space within “my being” and all of the chatter of endless voices critiquing “the me inside of me” confuses and distorts my ability to comprehend  the distance and direction I should be traveling in. I keep “bumping into myself many times over” because self will not move out of my way to allow me to gauge the time and distance it will take to straighten my path. I am stuck in the creases of my frown, it being sometimes dark inside, yet striving “upward” to a place of stability, knowing that my end is “far yet to come”. With instruments of humility leading me, “something” within the interior of my mind sands the walls of my thoughts down to clarity, assisting me in an uncomplicated manner. This  allows me, to perceive the portrait of self,  I have created, and this complex dilemma I live in forces me to embrace the contents of the “self perceived” reality around me, making it easy…. and freely…for me to “escape the abrasiveness” of the way “I” see, ‘I” think about…and the way “I” judge myself when it is not necessary… ©2013

Walking, but just carried One, five, another Ignoring the background whispers And the words of my mother Passing another, without recognition I will climb every mountain I'll never ask for permission Results accurately display the current conditions Intentions can be questioned Scan this place for a moment Non-action is non-action No claim to submission Game time, now own it Integrity is not my invention Present, direct attention To the clouds, over the other direction Blood boils like classic convention I'll say that reality is wrong, dreams are for real. Keep bending corners on life-warranted wheels Great minds, start thinking, change can be real Come to inside various naked walls, situations Schedule those ineffective, biased evaluations Go to a poor country, try to survive some starvation. How does a heavy nose remain at high elevation? Passion, giddy with six-digit dedication? Scan this for a moment Respect is earned, Those hands are too small to hold it Infinite efforts to label and mold it Unfit to claim it or fold it This world is the world's world Karma visited them. Who thought they sold it. History repeats itself Who wrote it? Who told it? Apparently Texas thinks they can own it. But my world has an afterglow This is not the crest smile Or the beat of this flow It's the pursuit of happiness Growth, searching high And searching low Learning to be learning And learning how to know Finding love Lessons, how to show To keep the richer, better things Life's breeze, endurance as my life's seams To live, yes, but forever to dream. I'll enjoy this reality scene. vi.xxi.xi

Cages Some are big Some are small But they all have one thing in common Their purpose The thing about cages is Most are ineffective No matter what The thing that is caged Will always want to escape The thing about escaping is Sometimes the only way out Is somewhere you don't want to go I'm going anyways.

We were born untainted like empty canvas; a bud of roses. But as time linger we digress from our innocence and actual selves. We were scratched and polished, from diamonds pulvarized to dirt. The facade we kept after succumbing to society’s propriety became us, And the true face and being what we were became lost in time. The mirror no longer reveals us, because we metamorphosed to someone else. Another face in society, swallowed by the world’s expectations and encumbrance. The appropriateness of etiquette, social conformity, and worldly priorities. Day by day, we became less of ourselves, and more like everyone else. Converging needs and wants, we lost our personal uniqueness, And it seems like our attempt to be different is the same as everyone’s else. By and by, we effort for elopement to get out of the box is futile – rather impossible. Epitome of wealth and exclusiveness; highest degree of poverty and martyrdom. In between those of extreme pillars, everyone seems to be in between and at both sides. The world has become more dimensional, efficient, yet ineffective. For our sweat and blood goes out for the wrong reasons; And we fight against one another, (thus fighting against ourselves), to become the winner. The winners aren’t actually victorious; neither are the loser the ultimate champions. And this is only a mere microcosm, to signify how the multifarious constituents that the world has formed: a composite, complex, compound conformed convolution.

Movies are my passion, the thing I love to do, the thing I enjoy to an extent. People ask me why I am wasting my time sinking into the ineffective fantasy world of the movies instead of enjoying the dignified life of reality. Not many people understand my undying affection for this compelling activity of entertainment. What they do not know is that the real world isn’t actually the real deal. It is a test, an absorbing guidance into the perfect afterlife or the anguishing heartbreak into the tormenting hell. It is their choice which one they choose. It is like the reality of realities in the movie of The Matrix or the corruption and sadness of the desolation of The Titanic. It may be the realness of Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen distressingly fighting for her life or the adventures of Shailene Woodley as Tris, loosing loved ones on her way. It could be the fans in the movies, screaming upon their idols or the hatred in the jealous, briskly spreading through the town. The inspiration is overwhelming and the education comes from the films, not from the institution they call school. The alive are in the fantasy and the real are in reality. They don’t understand the goodness that has not been seen in the life they call real.

Movies are my passion
So very cold, All of the time. I can't feel my hands, But that's normal now. I feel my bones crack, As I try to move. The ceaseless shivering, Has become normal, And ineffective. My pale skin has a sheen of blue, Marred by the line of red, From my bleeding nose. And with 3 pained breaths, I fall to sleep, And breath no more.

Hypothermia
It's hard to be a coward and suicidal, Afraid of pain and overly-sensitive to guilt simultaneously. Never wanted to jump from a building, Because regretting your decision halfway down must be a nightmare. Must only take a few seconds. Must feel like longer than you've ever lived. Didn't want to jump in front of a bus, Because that seems wildly ineffective. Didn't want to lie on train tracks; I know those videos of dismembered people end up On the darkest places of the Internet, And I'm nothing if I'm not embarrassed by attention. Didn't want to hang myself, had enough hospital trips From asthma attacks rendering me breathless to want to relive it. Tried to hang myself. Wasn't as bad as I thought it'd be. Didn't want to overdose on pills Because I have an aversion to swallowing them. Realised the only reason you aren't supposed to chew them Is so you don't overdose. Tried to overdose. Woke up confused and frightened with an apparently not-killer headache. But that was back then, and this is now. I don't look at things and see invitations of death anymore. There's no temptation to analyse them And see if they're up for the job. I'm less on the aggressive side of the spectrum, Swaying, instead, a lot more to being passive. I don't want to dive in front of traffic, But I don't always look before I cross the road either. And I could still end up in the same coffin as if I'd jumped, But for me, there's a lifetime of difference.

Annihilation, Revelation
There's an apartment filled with drugs Somewhere in the past Where I'd roll around on my rug With a body of little mass I was malnourished And felt like a tourist I protected embarrassing ****** desires And felt like I couldn't speak I thought I'd stay silent until I retired But the pressure got too deep I was afraid of what they think And the Kool-Aid they drink I made mistakes And tried to act straight I felt fake Which engendered hate My friends stopped seeing me After I stopped being me When everything got too cold I reached out for somewhere to hold And grasped a syringe To erase my cringe I didn't sleep on a pallet Or get beat by a mallet My parents loved me Isn't that lovely? I felt pain all the same I felt like I had fame And everybody was watching And grenade launching I tried to foolishly avoid it Which proved to be ineffective I thought drugs might destroy it Which led to countless injections I've seen interesting things Like wives selling rings To be drug dealer bling And the constant scheming Of the get-rich-quick dreaming These events become boring After you see girls ******* And homeless people looting up And pregnant women shooting up And pulverizing police pulling up The difference becomes starker Once things get even darker My life had no worth Back and forth Between rehab and relapse So much time had elapsed Life became about learning how one thing leads to another Like a caring mother who gives birth to two brothers One is of use to society For he has proper propriety The other is a poet But doesn't know it He can carve out a peaceful existence That can be his righteous resistance He needs to be nurtured By someone he collides with Somewhere in the future At a location to be decided

BASTARD! In my mind a hundred times a day it caws, A black and flapping creature hopping awkwardly Across the even furrow of my love. Dining on the choicest seed, uncovering the rest, Making sure no crop will ever flourish here, As I stand and gaze, Too weary from the endless days of planting all alone, Too hungry from the meals I've missed to care, I turn into an ineffective scarecrow Who just watches.

THE CROW
I find myself in a reality thoroughly mired; Hard wired to this dire strait of a habit: to remain inactive; Actively, though, I find myself being rendered blunt, Thoroughly ineffective. Effectively seeing my being contorted into shapes ignoble; Progressively rendered moot, Thwarted by my avante garde a la feeble. And as I face that reality, really all I want to do is Relay these reverberations that Go thump! thump! whenever we meet; Convey these fizzles that turn my stomach outside and in Whenever we share an embrace to greet. Can I rely on my grammar to share my emotions? Or are her stories old news now? I guess what I'm saying is: Can I speak? Can I, nay, may I deliver my formal interjection? That my emotion towards you is still a subject; That I'm hoping in my heart that the idea of "us" does not Come across as abject; Or imitate a noun and become an idea that is abstract? Because what I'm going for here is for our souls to find contact; And as I fill these blank spaces with hope; What I hope most for, Is that my sincerity really comes to the fore; That you understand that I'm not here selling dreams and lifestyles; But rather that I want to bring them to life before your eyes. So can I speak? Can I tell you of the hope you carry? Can I tell you of the joy you bring? Can I speak? Tell you everything? If not, can I at least tell you How crazy you drive this thing? (point to heart)

Can I speak?
I wish I was David, David Duchovny - not the characters he plays but the man capable of playing them. I want you to believe that I want to believe. I want you to believe. That, I want to believe. I want you to believe that. I want to believe.

I hate how repeating a line in a song really gets the point across, but when used in writing it seems cheap and ineffective
poetry masquerades under too much freedom of ineffective politics, which it does not which to engage with, namely it's own: far-left mummification, the far left mummified its heroes, the far right cremated theirs... one took the route to Prometheus absence as subsequent lack of camp-fire eagerly hell-bent; what truth is woman? the woman worthy of socio-political affairs, or affairs of paranoid idealism signature sentenced as counter-argument with haircut stylistics and tattooing?  a healthy visible status, rather than an unhealthy counter, status or no status, one ascribed the guillotine phobia, the second a necessary Buddhist heroism - both left reward-lost: dream of troll maidens, dream of perfected bedroom antics with so much **** reducing acting to naught and theatre to desperation with the ignited insignia of bureaucracy rather than bored harpsichord rebels hash tagging emily davison for bets and awareness in having monopoly - of her beauty i'll speak but little, am i the shopkeeper, the merchant, easier under the Niqab than for her fancy of ****** taking place... dreadlocks un-kept, and three signatures on lips that made kissing a pain... removed, thus revenged... if i knew woman i'd have kept one... but since i know none, i kept cats, bypassing women and imagining children; and all the better for my liking, such that the world shrunk to the size of Lichtenstein - oh but the few buttered friendships are there to be spoken off in old age... the few that remain have already leveraged you to bite the worm closest to the heart, in times when educating yourself equated itself to being shamed; when education became shame and trivia quizzing, when education became Latin bulimia and even that didn't fertilise the earth to spawn the awaiting, unearthed root for what came to be known as the chattering colour: as death stood, in its wintry palace, jokingly mannequin.
