"inwardly" poems
Sorrow filled heart permeates throughout a broken soul.   The body reflects inwardly out all the pain felt. Solace sought but not found furthering their agony.   Too sad to live too broken to move they lie there numb. Struggling barely getting by yet somehow finds the strength to carry on.

The Depressed
Hopelessness is the worst feeling of all Hope must be the very scaffolding upon which we build ourselves Because the moment hope dissipates the moment it begins to wear and give way We collapse within forgetting any light that ever previously illuminated the circumstance When you demolish a building, you don't have to destroy every piece but merely compromise its infrastructure The same goes for destroying a person, or even a group of people. You don't have to destroy them as a whole but simply destroy their hope and watch as they collapse inwardly

Hopelessness
The Royal lady's eyes behold. The scene that is about to unfold. The procession just outside Hawa Mahal. She looks from one of he 953 windows. The red and pink sand stone of the Mahal, She feels from her toes. She is Rajput by heart. And inwardly thanks Maharaja Sawai Pratap Singh for this intricate piece of Art. Constructed in 1799. From it's windown, The breeze flows;fresh and beingh. Out there there are all kinds of people Old. Young. Fancy. Simple. They radiate happiness. Mounted on elephants or barefoot,feeling blessed. She smiles to herself. And closes the Jharokha and feels excited as now, To her friends,she has a story to tell.

Will you love me if I said I have AHDH (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) That I will jump before you speak Will be impatient to get my way I can love u and hate you at the same time I will nod, but not understand. Will you love me truly, even then? Cause your love will make all the difference. Will you love me if I said I have BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) That I will be so drawn to you That I'll throw myself at you That more often than ever I will question you if you me love too Then I'll doubt you if you do I'll accuse you of using me Then I'll offer myself to be used I will shunt between 2 shades There is no grey for me Will you love me truly, even then? Cause your love will make all the difference. Will you love me if I said I have Bipolar (Disorder) That my mood swings like a pendulum That I will drive you mad Or make you sad Or I'll laugh till I drop That you will never understand Who I am today Dealing with my situation Will depress you. I can literally **** your life out too. Will you love me truly, even then? Cause your love will make all the difference. Will you love me if I said I have NPD (Narcissistic Personality Disorder) That I will always think of me That my dreams and aspirations will be so big I wont have time for empathy That I left my childhood behind So don't bug me with sensitivity I am afraid of your committment Cause no one can hold me still Will you love me truly, even then? Cause your love will make all the difference. Will you love me if I said I am terminally ill That my pain is unbearable My hope has dimmed out too And I can see no end to my misery But even though my life's a thread I really want to have a full life again I want to be able to trade my pain If someone would only be game. But I know it is not possible Hence I ask for what is Will you love me truly, even then? Cause your love will make all the difference. You see this world's bursting with people who ache! You and I have the difference to make. It is so easy to empathize With someone who pain is visible in daylight But spare a thought for those who ache inwardly Trapped in a battle with their minds eccentricity! If your courage be so strong That pain not withstanding you choose to bond Live that life that gives glory Share that love, that speaks a story Love ceaselessly, love like it truly is! Love above humans no one can Cause loving like HIM, Needs a supreme hand!

I want to get hit by a BMW. I want to get hit by a Mercedes. I want to get run over by a Porsche. Something big. I want to get smeared against the pavement by a Cadillac Escalade. I want to get hit by one of those big ******** who drag gasoline across the continent, but I want the driver to be a manic psychopath. I want him to stalk me on the sidewalk and then run me over slowly. He's not any coward, not like those bald patriarchal Corvette drivers in polo shirts tucked into khakis. No, he's a great fat man, a hairy beast with a crooked stare that slows the pulse on impact. I want the police to cringe or get scared interrogating him, and haul his truck somewhere to be inspected. I want the price of gas in nearby areas to go up by at least fifteen cents for two weeks. I want to get hit by a BMW. I want to roll over the windshield, and drag under the bottom for about ten yards. I want to separate at the middle and leave organs on his left side view mirror and hanging on his hood ornament. I want to seep blood deep into his car, and when he turns on his heat, he'll smell my blood full blast in his face burning. I want to wreck the car inside and out. I want to get hit by a car with a McCain sticker on the bumper. I don't want to get hit by some middle class Ford or Honda, or someone's shit-level Chevy or beat up jalopy. I want to get hit by a BMW. I want the driver to make his tires scream like banshees, and leave four long streaks of rotten burned rubber on the asphalt. I want him to step out in business attire, and gasp, inwardly. I want to flip off the sky, because my aim is bad, and call him a coward for hitting the brakes. I want him to think, "What did I do? Is he Okay? What am I going to do? What if I lose my license? How will I get to work? How will I pay for this. Does my insurance cover vehicular manslaughter? I'm not alone right? I'll get through this. I'll survive. I'll just be another statistic. That's all."

[Dedicated to Austin Osman Spare] Have pity ! show no pity ! Those eyes that send such shivers Into my brain and spine : oh let them Flame like the ancient city Swallowed up by the sulphurous rivers When men let angels fret them ! Yea ! let the south wind blow, And the Turkish banner advance, And the word go out : No quarter ! But I shall hod thee -so ! While the boys and maidens dance About the shambles of slaughter ! I know thee who thou art, The inmost fiend that curlest Thy vampire tounge about Earth's corybantic heart, Hell's warrior that whirlest The darts of horror and doubt ! Thou knowest me who I am The inmost soul and saviour Of man ; what hieroglyph Of the dragon and the lamb Shall thou and I engrave here On Time's inscandescable cliff ? Look ! in the plished granite, Black as thy cartouche is with sins, I read the searing sentence That blasts the eyes that scan it : **** and SET be TWINS." A fico for repentance ! Ay ! O Son of my mother That snarled and clawed in her womb As now we rave in our rapture, I know thee, I love thee, brother ! Incestuous males that consumes The light and the life that we capture. Starve thou the soul of the world, Brother, as I the body ! Shall we not glut our lust On these wretches whom Fate hath hurled To a hell of jesus and shoddy, Dung and ethics and dust ? Thou as I art Fate. Coe then, conquer and kiss me ! Come ! what hinders? Believe me : This is the thought we await. The mark is fair ; can you miss me ? See, how subtly I writhe ! Strange runes and unknown sigils I trace in the trance that thrills us. Death ! how lithe, how blithe Are these male incestuous vigils ! Ah ! this is the spasm that kills us ! Wherefore I solemnly affirm This twofold Oneness at the term. Asar on Asi did beget Horus twin brother unto Set. Now Set and Horus kiss, to call The Soul of the Unnatural Forth from the dusk ; then nature slain Lets the Beyond be born again. This weird is of the tongue of Khem, The Conjuration used of them. Whoso shall speak it, let him die, His bowels rotting inwardly, Save he uncover and caress The God that lighteth his liesse.

I panicked. My brain attacked today. It attacked my lungs, Stupid sharp whistling sounds. I looked out of control. But I felt aware, that I wasn’t breathing, that I was attacking myself again. It attacked my heart, terrifying skipping stones in my chest. Whipped one by one, Muffled blows in my breast. I panicked. I looked out of control but I was aware, of the guilt, of what will drag along with me. I can’t be freed from fault, It’s not the way. Because I panic; is why I don’t relate, is how I cleanse. Fright being necessary, like a dream where you muscle tone fails you, I was paralyzed. My knuckles hit the laminate – again, again, again. But I don’t move. Feeling my bicep twitch, Feeling my throat raw, My mouth wide open, But I don’t make a sound. Because I panic. The power inside, will never translate, to the outside. People may see flickers, of insanity in my eyes. They may see me tighten up. They may seem me strain and ease. But I will never translate. Until it snaps, Until I no longer attack myself. Until I no longer panic. Until I bellow, Until I howl, Until I wail, Until I swing and connect. Until it attacks outwardly, Instead of inwardly.

Panic
when you hear my words when you decipher their intention i wonder what tools you use i wonder what you will make of me i hope your eyes see through the same lens i hope your soul breeds like mine that my intentions would scare you that my intentions, in that way, hurt me worried that my expression are never really mine worried that once outwardly deciphered they become inwardly lost though our language is the same our definitions never are though my hopes remain the same your intentions never change

Communication
An animal shriek in the snowiest silence is swallowed by eyes deep and brown, not like mine. Which're shallow and icy and clouded with Sundays shrugged off of shoulders from peak down to plain. These mornings are silent, constructed from cinder blocks; skeletal, rusting--yet inwardly wailing. Why in the world can't I set those shouts free when the achiest Mondays release all their caltrops and I stagger through work weeks on sore, shredded feet? It's because of the way that your shrieks echo off of my wrought iron eyelids when frost fills your veins. It's because of the way that I melt every Thursday and wash down the side of the night in cold sheets. I can't shout out loud and I can't melt the quiet that screams from the mountains to snow on the prairie below.

The question regarding the question relies on what the question really is. If the question implied is a question directed outwardly, then it may be misinterpreted as a question to oneself internally. Otherwise, a question explicitly directed inwardly is critical to deciphering the question that one will address outwardly.   If an indirect question is questioned through the user, then the question itself becomes a metaphysical question to choose from. In the event a question is said through alternate means, consider the quantitative/qualitative state of the question at the time being; as it may be resolved by asking the question in a subconscious level indeed.   Superficial means tends to seek fundamental questions to the reality of the state one naturally possesses.   In the case where the unconscious decides the opportune event to question the conscious reality, one must interpret the means in examination of the intrapersonal mentality.   If the question is imposed through correlative thought and subliminal expression, then the question itself is related to a parallel conscious state intertwined with the unconscious state of mind of progression. If the question is relative in combination to the solutions mentioned above becoming apparent, then one has means to ask the question without questioning the question itself in disparate. Otherwise, the question continues to perplex the question through the continuation of irrelevant questions that one will have thought; creating a treacherous belief so concurrent one could not have fought. Therefore, is the reality of the question portrayed to the reality you live in or the reality of others? As this poem was conclusive to subtly evoke thought in the questions we construct.

You'll never believe this but, I drank from God's flask the other day. Yeah, Convinced that it was half full Of conscientiousness. Of hope, or passion, or honesty, or somethingworthgivingashitabout. For it had once appeared to many, A beautiful and grand canteen, Forged of liquid silver. And as I allowed the contents to inwardly surge, I realized that it had plunged into the same carnal vessel From whence it came, And the lining of my body had been holding the ancient linings of other bodies, Reincarnate. Romantic, If that's the way you wanna slice it. But There is a recipe for such rapture, And it's been written on pages much less holy than the Bible-- On the coffee stained clipboards of chemists And the meticulous manuscripts of mathematicians. It's made out of the same **** that everything else is made of: Out of the same force that makes you float when you sit in the dead sea, Out of your body's sweat after a hard day's work, Out of the blood in your veins. Salt. All of it, everything, everyone, Salt. Dissolved, crystallized, harvested, ingested, Redissolved, recrystallized, and the cycle repeated.

Doubt So easy to say. So hard to get past. I've always had a little bit of it reflected inwardly because I've never been able to attain the appearance I wanted. I've never been quite thin enough. My hair has never been quite long enough. My skin never quite clear enough. And because of this its caused me to doubt other areas. If I can't get in peak physical shape, what makes me think I can become financially independent?  Get a good job?  Start my own business? If I can't control something as simple as a complexion, hair follicle or calorie, how do I think I can take on the outside world? It's the doubt that eats you. It's the doubt that tucks you into your grave with the could haves because you cancelled yourself out. You're problem is not in your thighs or uneven eyebrows. Your problem is you think they're your problem. Stop taking yourself out. You are worthy. You are so. worth. loving.

Hair follicle
From the very first she gently lifts him pushes him to breathe and so the learning starts He is so clumsy as she teaches him to swim she laughs a gentle mother’s laugh if inwardly No arms to discipline or hug yet what a heart to give to her one small and only son just twelve feet long at birth One distant day he’ll near her length at forty-five or so and shall remain the most important thing to her upon this Earth

The Whale Child
The distance ever so touchable Yet you're still far afield The glimmering glitter in your blissful Translucent almond irises Waiting to deviate from them Yet they have imprinted themselves Now affiliated with my heart Seeing your lips brimming brightly Rejuvenating your flawless visage Embodying my love Not even half your beauty Inwardly made you mine Realistically destined for another Drastic jaundiced waves Crashing the shores of heartbreak Sentiments Thus the eminent work of Patience Silence Benevolence Enshrouds my blooming admiration For you Unfastening my feigned ethos For you I comprehend the significance of dignity and family But my love Ceaseless and eternal But my love Yours only

Secret Admirer
It makes me feel so alive As i watch it bleed It makes me feel so alive Its such a sudden need The pain is like a rush If you saw me You would definitely blush Because this is not who im supposed to be But im afraid Its who i am The price must be paid So that i can stand Stand myself Without this knife I would crumble And i would end my life So i continue to cut my skin I dont care if its a sin Its what must be done If im to continue to see the sun Everyone needs something To cope with pain This is what i need For there to be any gain I love the blood I love feeling it flood Down my leg Im not going to beg For help So inwardly i yelp In pain And i watch the rain Of red That will scare me skin And i want it to end But i cant stop Its out of my control I have no soul Im just a robot Who must bleed I have to feed On this bright red sin So i cut again and again But there has to be more Christ has settled my score I wont give up I wont stay stuck I will keep moving I will let go of this knife I wont let it rule my life

Theres more to life than this
At an airport garden in Hong Kong I sit and refresh my traveling spirit amidst an effusion of lucky bamboo Crepe white and fuchsia orchids coyly fan their geisha faces The Morning Sun, at first a pale opal ember climbing over slumbering, stone-washed mountains Roars into brilliance like a golden Peacock Dragon strutting through China blue skies I smile inwardly.... let the moment sweep me off my feet Breathe in...... colors, sights, sounds gifts....fullness

Feng Shui-ed
The limping man entered a world of difference and prejudice carried by civilization. Sorrows beyond our understanding celebrated the right to be alone in wasted conformity. He is ashamed inwardly of transcending fear making persistence step into impulse. His cure hooked the tyranny of repeatedly abused witnesses with harassing all freedoms. Injustice regained its function by stretching a new idea of the conscious enemy. -s.r.b.

The Conscious Enemy
The rooster swivels on its axis returning coarse wind into the pyre of mad, mad tongues raving alongside charred ivory. Lifted by sorry hands from dying embers’ embrace and eased with foreign pity, ceremoniously, into a cardboard crate wheeled against the traffic, stumbling backwards through yellow canvases, between my family dressed in black, to dress the void (deck), mourners spitting soda into their cups, as word paddle upstream, onto a thin futon within four walls stained with unfinished ghosts. The doctor removes the white shroud like God coaxing pink light on the first day and wine oozes through elastic veins to the far corners of my skin thin ventricular walls. One crack, in the doors and in my chest, paramedics in white blur in, heel first, Pan-island couriers on reverse gear to the corner of a numbered street, where I am delivered like a gladiator thrown into the arena of nosy gazes, with the urgency of hens clucking away from premeditated slaughter: deep Christmas red on the tessellated parking lot. Clumsy thumbs dialing 599, I moan inwardly to the concentric circles of strangers retreating, erasing me from cell-phone cameras. Then like a flip animation I snap backwards, up 21 floors, pause for about an hour on the ledge before smashing backwards, back down, past kids scratching graffiti off the cement and growing cigarettes in their mouths. The rain ascends and I take wet cash from the driver while I fidget on the leather and throw up mediocre coffee into my cup. I dig into my throat and return the bread to its plastic bag and when the cab stops I fall left out onto another parking lot, moonwalk up the stairs to where I unwrite my name in the annals of failure and shove the Fs of my past back then I take the bus instead.

Tingly under the daisies; Glassy-eyed, glazed, greasy; Shaking, shivering, shuddering, Wishing, wandering, whimpering, Westernizing— Romanizing— Constitutionalizing— Institutionalizing— Perpetually searching And dying And living, Watching Death survive And scythe the frolickers, The prancers, The rompers, The merrymakers. A rose clamped between his Grinning teeth glistens brightly, And he dances so joyously. “Yes!” say the naysayers, Confused are the soothsayers, Lost are the cartographers. Oh, Utopia! The monks are extravagant; The meditations are a farce! The preachers are beggars And swindlers and chargers, And Machiavelli fulfills his wishes! Babies are stillborn, stabbed, and Ritualistically sacrificed, And their blood is spilled, drunk, Slathered over the ***** man. The evangelists scream and lie: “You are all predestined to die!” Oh, hail Utopia! Wedded are the girls to the girls; Wedded are the boys to the boys; Wedded is Death to Death, Life to Life, And Life to Death. Wedded are the living to the existent. And the milking babes are slaughtered Ceremoniously, Surreptitiously, Ostentatiously. Oh, hail great Utopia! We are all dead and unintelligent: Laugh, laugh, Einstein, at your Stupidity. Laugh, laugh, Temple Grandin at Your retardation. Laugh, laugh, laugh! Look at the sluggard, thou ant; Look at the boy, sobbing wolf; Aesop was drunk, Aristotle was delusional, Michelangelo was blind, Beethoven could hear, Poe was sane. And I can't read. They ramble, I watch. They sleep, I watch. They dream, I watch. They sleep-talk, I watch. They scream, I watch. They choke, I watch. They suffocate, I watch. Stone-faced, I stare; Raspingly, I breathe; Uncontrollably, I twitch; Inwardly, I rage. I hope you die, I hope you die. I hope you bleed, I hope you die. I want you begging and crying, I want you blubbering at my feet, I want you gnashing at my ankles, I want you writhing in pain, I want your arm twisted off, Cracking with the snapping sinews, I want your beating heart in my hands, I want your genitals uprooted and stuffed in your throat, I want your stomach so I can eat the still-digesting food, I want your shrunken head and I want to force my thumbs into your unblinking eyes and I want to tear your face in two and I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, I want you to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die, to die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die and die.

Utopia

Sitting alone in my bed, Anxiously yearning the touch of something different. Contemplating about differences, Visualizing the new experiences, Mesmerizing about different beauties, Fantasizing the new opportunities, About women of different cultures, Ethnicity and upbringing. Pay no mind to the language barrier, As our body speak that universal language, We can have intellectual conversations, We can have passionate  interactions. Lets's ponder with deep imagination, As we diversify this love, ignore it's discrepancies, So girls of all colors come closer and get drawn like crayola, As we paint this picture to see what we can make of this blend of colors. Envision this: Background music effectively babysitting my thoughts as I listen, Laying under the moon,  With that special person.  Inwardly rehearsing,  Every move to make,  Opportunities to take, Intaking the passion from the air she breathes out,  Creating chemistry not even Einstein could figure out. This love should be an equal opportunity, You plus me that's all that should matter. So would you explore your heart? Release the stereotypes that keep you in the dark? As darkness falls, Our temperatures rise. A reflection of moonlight shimmers in those eyes. They tell me your secrets; I tell you no lies. What lies beneath your skin will be ugliness' demise. Ironic, in the dark you see me for who I truly am. And I tell you who you truly are. So far. So good. So deep, it goes beneath your beauty, It goes beyond whatever society will tell you not to do with me. Tonight your biases shall not rule thee, For I am king of this pride. Swallow your pride and swallow my pride. Release the wait of inhibition and take this ride. Our inner flames fueled by passion shall light our way. They say, we are blind but it is only in darkness that we truly see. Give up shallow emotions, let your heart be free. Immerse yourself in this reality: My love is river, all else is only skin deep.

Skin Deep Thoughts

This Tamarind tree with a thick  thatched roof of leaves spread to all the sides like matted dreadlocks of a sage in silent, inwardly turned contemplation, for long long years has such cool, comfortable shade, that is-- lovely rendezvous to the love smitten, to bill and coo for hours, transit home for nomads who own nothing more than their backpacks and looking for a shade, playground for children in the neighborhood, with curious eyes, resting place for laborers tired from toiling, in the sun all day long. pen for itinerant goats, that playfully fight with each other, kennel for stray pups finding companionship all by themselves, hive for honey bees that hum tunes for all these refugees, venue for a cocophonous congregation of  birds of different feathers, obviously very political, probably arguing about the future plans when such a kind tree no more would be there, soon when the road gets broadened.

An amazing avatar in need of a redeemer
You run your fingers up my thigh I sigh at the delicate touch and Inwardly shudder at my multiplying feelings, I try to say stop but the cry dies on my lips this I want My body belies my shyness My body electrifies my senses no shame is felt as those fingers explore the stimuli they bring, crash into me like waves upon the shore. Higher and deeper, they amplify the lullaby that in my head sings my shyness away and magnifies my delight. Detoxified, I soar like a dragonfly mystified at the brazen me lying spent in the moonlight.
