appearances appearances appearances we aren’t what we seem, are we? but we are what we seem aren’t we? how would you know about the drug-takers, the child-rapists, the murderers, the doctors, the racists, the writers, the sports-fan, the obese, the rage-filled, the hateless, if they didn’t tell you? what are they but average joes until they go rob a bank or paint a master- piece? even the very perfect, like the president or your babysitter, is probably hiding something maybe they’re a *** addict or a pill-popper or a communist but if you look at them and see a good little child or a perfect example of human being I highly doubt that’s what they really are I say this simply because people are not perfect but society refuses to let them be their misshapen selves so we hide it, like all good things, and pretend like we have no idea what they’re talking about when somebody makes fun of our favorite geeky tv show and that’s us all appearances all lies all that we know

My skin has been itching for three months I’m not sure why this is addicting I’ve crashed a car in my head 3 times today My mental awareness consistently letting go of the wheel The Anterior teeth of my mouth have started to yellow in disapproval I’m not sure why this is satisfying I’ve been taking toxic psychotropics in light doses more than twice a day It’s warmth is comforting as the jittering and hyperactivity become null Bags have formed under my eyes If you were to open them, their roasted smell would overpower you with stimulation Constantly on my toes for risk of Insomnia and Narcolepsy I’m not sure why this is outstanding Adrenaline is being forcefully factored into my body If this is the bullet, I’m biting it after an appliance pulls the trigger As the high passes, it ripples through my mind An otherwise calm sea, tidal waves pound the shores of my subconsciousness Vacuum sealed can are filled with awareness Sleep has become a rare odyssey Warm comforters are replaced with long trachea trips of boiling beans I’m not sure why this is alarming Double trips become tripled and troubling to my mother Arguments over the hours I shall harvest from the night are increasingly frequent Slow to roll out of bed in the morning I don’t hit my carpet, I splash into sugared preparedness In my backpack hides a cup full of GI Joes I’m not sure why this is troubling If anything, I’m drinking a medicine that prevents death by 10-15% for 13 years The New England Journal of Medicine was happy to acknowledge my existence Till they announce anything different, you’ll find me taking a mud bath I’m not sure why this is disgusting Tell me everything that’s wrong with it Because from where I’m standing There is nothing wrong with Coffee

I am a miner. The light burns blue. Waxy stalactites Drip and thicken, tears The earthen womb Exudes from its dead boredom. Black bat airs Wrap me, raggy shawls, Cold homicides. They weld to me like plums. Old cave of calcium Icicles, old echoer. Even the newts are white, Those holy Joes. And the fish, the fish---- Christ! They are panes of ice, A vice of knives, A piranha Religion, drinking Its first communion out of my live toes. The candle Gulps and recovers its small altitude, Its yellows hearten. O love, how did you get here? O embryo Remembering, even in sleep, Your crossed position. The blood blooms clean In you, ruby. The pain You wake to is not yours. Love, love, I have hung our cave with roses. With soft rugs---- The last of Victoriana. Let the stars Plummet to their dark address, Let the mercuric Atoms that ******* drip Into the terrible well, You are the one Solid the spaces lean on, envious. You are the baby in the barn.

The Circus gongs excite the Throngs in nighttime Never Land – They swarm to see the destiny of Freaks at their command, While Acrobats step pitapat above the shifting sands And Lady Fat sits down to chat and oozes charm unplanned. The Dwarfs in suits, so small and cute when marching with the Band, Ask crimson Clowns with frozen frowns, to hold a mutant hand, While Tamers’ whips with withered tips, throughout the winter land, Lure Cats entranced through hoops enhanced with flames of fires fanned. White Elephants in big-top tents boast black-tusk contraband To regiments of Sycophants who overflow the stands, But No One sees anomalies, and No One understands. At night’s demise, the dither dies, the lonesome Crowd disbands, Down dead-end streets the Horde retreats, their tattered rags in strands, And Janes and Joes reweave their woes, for thoughts of change are banned. To play a part in Three-Ring Art, I thought I’d try my hand – I mastered skills, I felt the thrills, I breathed and seethed firsthand – But destiny denied to me to taste a lifetime spanned With tightrope walks and trapeze chalks ... excepting second-hand... For alcohol provoked a fall, as if a reprimand, And now, a heap, I sometimes keep the ticket office manned...

The Acrobat
Does part of your confusion? Arise from the contusion? Of that kiss so lovingly wrapped inside a fist? Why hold back? What’s pain? Just black A void In which to switch! We both know that you can’t touch me In the fortress of my mind For only I control the drawbridge Vermin’s More than often blind squeak squeak squeak *“Please let me in. I have some wares to sell. I’ll cross your palm with silver. No secrets will I tell”* Little mouse Go away Go back where you belong We all know the germs you carry We all know that they are wrong YOU Tout yourself as honest YOU Tout yourself as pure But just beneath the surface In the sewers **YOU DO LURE** Lure the unsuspecting Lure the barely formed Punting pretence of perfection Salivating salacious scorn *“But … please Miss. Hear me out. You have me oh so wrong. I'm just like all the other Joes. Lost and all alone. The mistake that I made was in telling you. Thoughts inside my head. On reflection. Now. I realise. They were better off not said”* Little louse It is too late For your motives are plain to see Time to move on Time to move out Time to live out your sick fantasies ...

The unmasking of another straw man
In Loving Memory Joseph Wulf R.I.P.   8-31-2015   ☆●♡●☆ Tonight my friend could not breathe. Lungs ravaged from long ago. Served our country as a young man. Shoulders, hip n' leg bones broke by the jungles below. A Harley Man through and through. JFD's became his Corps. Never wavered in his allegiance to his country or his force. One of the smartest men I have ever known. Could recite passages from long ago. Abreast of topics from far and wide a history buff so knowlegable. A brother to many, a father to one. Devoted to all he loved. A truer friend could not be had So very popular he was!! Joe was my protector, as I was a wild young thing. Was my confidant and chaperone starting at just 17. Accompanied first date with my husband 30 years ago. Gave his blessings that first night~ To my children he was Uncle Joe. The older brother I never had. Blessed to love him 40 years. My whole being trembles at the thought of losing him. I weave Love between these tears. ☆●♡●♡●☆ ~Christi Michaels~April 2015~ Copyright © 2015 Christi Michaels.

♡ Ode to Joe ♡
Joe Joe was a man in town that did pretty much of everything. He was the sheriff, and the butcher, he hauls food to the neighbors. Joe also was working on cars and trucks, pumped gas if you needed some. Joe had an old tow truck, red in color to match the fire truck. The tow truck was joes pride and joy. He made money at the county fair. He would be tow for miles around. But on race at the fair is where you would find old Joe They say old Joe died the other day. Just days after he parked the old tow truck. Joe the handy man.

Joe
The first taste of Fall , with a slight nip in the air , reminds me of a five year old in his Astronaut gear ! Football helmet , pliers and hammer from Dads tool case ! Yellow raincoat and cowboy boots , outside the Eagle on Tranquility Base , Neil Armstrong  exploring the creek beside the Mothership ...Home ..Crawdad matches , tadpoles , mud puppies , mantids , a few June Bugs with kite string tied to one leg ..Aggies , Immies , shooters and swirls , GI Joes , jack stones and wood gliders ....

1968
The red car stopped on the arc of the hill at the corner of Corrupt Avenue and ******* Boulevard and let out a young woman with skin a dark brown hue who looked like life had hit her with everything including the bathroom commode. "Thanks for the inks and the ride" said the dark brown woman as she got out of the red car. "Red and green looks good on your skin. Can we keep doing *** for tattoos?" said the driver of the car. The dark brown woman took a peek under the shades she was wearing and said "Sure baby." "I'll be seeing you Abby" said the man driving the red car. "Yes you will" said Abby. Abby turned her back to the man driving the red car and walked up the long stairs that led to a four storey brick building. As Abby walked up the stairs she got all types of stares from the people leaving the building. Abby made her way through the big glass doors and noticed an odor. The smell was the smell of Marijuana. Abby followed the odor to the office of Willie Dun. As Abby entered Willie's office she saw him sitting on his desk with a blunt in his left hand and a liquor bottle in his right hand. "Abby, baby what took you so long?" asked Willie Dun as he put the blunt to his mouth. Abby took the liquor bottle out of Willie's hand and put it to her lips and took two sips. As Abby took off her white shirt she put the bottle back to her lips taking one last sip. "I was getting tattoos. What do you think?" asked Abby. "Nice art work. The reason I called you here is because I want you to help me with my campaign. I'm running for Governor. You have a lot of pull in the streets. Are you still a resident of ***** Alley?" said Willie Dun. "Yes, but I'll only sign my name on your campaign trail if you help me move out of ***** Alley" said Abby. "Ok Abby where would you like to move?" asked Willie as he took the liquor bottle out of Abby's hand. "East Ecstasy Street" answered Abby. "I can make that happen. With you on my team I'll have the average Joes votes for sure" said Willi Dun. written by Keith Edward Baucum

My Friend Joe
DaLing, DaLing, DaLing, DaLing As I lay out on the warm wooden dock Old Saint Joes crows fabricate a path of emotions upwelling Sun’s rays prance along my shoulders in tune with the killjoy clock The Fox whispers wisdom through the wooden panels that separate the two bodies Little did I know, on that September day, there was little to be learned from this outrageously priced text with pages yet to be broken in, when compared to experience and growing up that year. All my past, present, and future troubles and tears, flaws and fears, aspirations and anxieties The Clock knew them all. The Fox knew them all, but to me unclear. Somewhere between orientation and my final final exam of freshman year, through my social-butterfly-syndrome and college boys, the parties and the beer-- I, a lost sheep, was found on that dock in De Pere.

The Most Lovely Place in the World
Do you know the feeling of holding on to abstract ideas? Hot and abysmal Whimsical fears Dry and unenchanting miserable years? Do you? Or do you know the road of normal hopes, Overpasses and classy folk, Cheap sunglasses and average Joes? Do you know those things? Or does light bring dimmer views Shadows of doubt cast around A darker, livid hue If someone had to die, Would it be him or you Or would you simply choose to escape and sing a hymn or two? See forgiveness doesn't come to those who ask, ask anyone Even me, I have asked you plenty ones. In hindsight, you will see

Joe the Zombie Slayer
We are the jagged jigsaw puzzles with the missing pieces The Barbie dolls that can only see themselves in fun house mirrors The G.I Joes that only want to wear pink The puppets that pull against their strings The dream houses in the ghetto We are the paper air planes that struggle to fly straight The deck of cards with the pycho 8s We are the toys in the box that everybody hates We slip through the cracks in the careless fingers of young boys and girls We are the gifts at Christmas that did not make the list We are the birthday rejects The easy to forget The clutter underneath your bed We are veterans of every garage sale, donation pile, and trash bin For all you want is to be rid of us So we'll go We'll run away to candy land and snort pixie sticks looking for a sugar high We'll stop comparing ourselves to other toys We'll laugh with each other And for the first time in our lives We'll play.

Welcome to the Island of Mifit Toys
Listening to A Youtube series On the history of China Starts in Imperial China During the days of the warlords China looked to Russia To help them drive out The warlords And in exchange Chinese communists would Be accepted The nationalists And Communists Worked together To overthrow the warlords I had a bowl of oatmeal Small oranges And Trader Joes Honey Nut O's I don't work that much I'm poor And happy to be that way No plans to Move out Or to pay rent I'm going to do Exactly as I please If they try to kick me out I will stay at the park I have a house key But they would never Do that Because I help out Too much here Besides these people Will need my help In their old age I like to study China And Russia I figure one Or both of these countries Will attack America One day Fun to learn about them I live near the mountains I like the mountains A day with my friends I had recently It reminded me how much I miss them And how much time I spend alone I enjoy podcasts And documentaries I've never had *** I dream about Beautiful caring women Their hair adorned With Lilacs And daffodils Their sweet scented Honeysuckle

Grocery Store Smiles
Chewing the hard burnt bits of cheese off of frozen pizza I am soft, I am light, I am not giving a single **** about the extra calories I'm consuming at 3 AM. Ellios. But from the hospital my mother works at, must have been reheated a few times now. I don't ******* care. It's food. And here I am. Alone in my bed. Listening to Russian Circles and hoping it'll help me write something actually worth sharing for once. Eh, I'd rather not take myself so. I like a few guys. I like a girl very much. I'm starting a new job. I'm scared of what's to come. I'm scared of disappointing everyone. I'm an ellios pizza stowed away as leftovers, a midnight snack. Hoping to be worthy of praise. Sprinkled in trader joes seasoning. I'm just so special. I'm tasty but I'm so much more than I seem. Cook me in the oven, if you want me crispy. I cure hangovers. Just with my fingertips, I promise. Sleep with me, and see. You'll see that I'm honest. You'll be there in the morning. I might decide to take a hike. Don't ask me to stay. You don't ever mean that. I'm fine admiring myself in my frontal camera, on a lyft ride back home with dancehall music in the background. I'm worth so much of my own praise that I forget to text you back.

Everywhere you go You see the same hoes Throwing up deuce signs And showing bra and ***** holes *** shots galore Posing on the floor By an opened door Thinking they a star When they average joes Hoes come in many fashions No color bashing just blasting All these fakes Sitting on social media Ain't got nothing in they names But an account And few followers for the fame Internet celebrities At best they say I'm hatin? How humpty you getting played see By the industry Thinking you a women But really a ***** day n night Like Al B Sure Don't get upset with me Cuz of the choices you Made in society in reality Real women seek goals And girls seek attention So break that spiritual prism You mored fused than a religions Mixed with a bunch of ***** n ***** And at they same time You at church making confessions n **** Bet you thinking God smilin cuz of yo wilding Sit down darling you startling My words be sticking you like Marlin Pardon me I can't help but to expose the truth Light upon the darkness Grazin yo temples Stop being simple and replica of Thot Central

Thot Central
My mothers love I never knew. Her affection was cold and pale blue. My thorny heart was born to sin. In creek water, I'm born again. A pack of joes, a fith of gin, I follow ghosts of what could've been. Ive seen the sun pass through the. moon In every town, I start again.

Drifter
They stay vigil, ever waiting the new design of sigils. Kinda simple, keep their fingers pressed to pimples, The pus a pit of petered parts, Perceived by the reckoning of depleted hearts. I rushed the doors at the sound of a great escape, The process a repeat coordination of hurry up and wait. Ever balking at the atrocities of cost, Average Joes chasing dreams at the velocity of sloths. How to be content with immense disparity? Hands out faking quivers, shaking for some charity. Forsaken someones somewhere surviving on a sliver, Watching all the getters, I see myself a giver.
