Forgive Me
There was a time... The first rhyme You ever read to me That time when I, Once unappreciative, But that night... Fell in love with it. You recited your hurt like art, A delicate voice, But with trembling heart. During those early days of early love. I always wanted to read along as you read aloud. And I would've died to be the page you'd slaved upon. Tears, blood, passion unrivaled like a daring dawn That fights the night till the day is gone. Perhaps it was to feel connected to you, But I began to write my stories too. I threaded them together painstakingly, Usually in the lonesome limbos I felt achingly, Anxiously, And it took so long to share myself with you. Did you know you were the first to ever see them? You always thought I was beautiful. Once again, you encouraged the fire free. And this isn't the only sea You've taught me to sail. Now I place my work here With the sheer raw emotion I so dearly make clear. It is one of the few things I've made mine. I never said I had talent, but at least I can rhyme! And now? Now I write for me.

I write for me
Um medíocre seixo formado por um aglomerado espalhafato de pulgas flutua e veleja por oceanos saturados de desaproveitas lágrimas amarelo-chumbo nas mais desoladas camadas de sua privativa órbita, em uma intersecção de múltiplos limbos supra-reais, bem entre dois muros de um corredor estreito, escuro e corroborado pelo lodo - sobre o qual, cabe-se dizer, resta imóvel uma pequena patrola laranja de brinquedo, esquecida. Inevitável e também incoerente, Continuar a ser (peleja) "Um equívoco desmistificado; uma perturbação" Os ideais se contrapõem aos já extintos/ Sedimentos navegam eternamente sem rumo/ Inexprimível Sensível/ O oculto que assim permanece/ Pedregulho pulguento perpetuamente a protuberar-se na imensidão dos mares de um ópio por si próprio proferido, ofendendo e perseguindo leis individuais de universo, causando o óbito comum a todos os parciais ínfimos pares de não-instantes, parados. Estarrece-se o lógico pela busca do externo consenso, indiferente a todo gotejar de pia: fundir-se pela semelhança! tornar-se pela simples analogia! Homo-Sutra; Homo-Isso. Homo-Tundra; Homo-Aquilo. **** Sapiens **** Gênio Entrementes, através de seus poros abertos pela alta temperatura, sente por seu corpo, de muitos corpos, a circulação efervescente do mais intenso calor, o sopro de vida hebraico de um cosmos também filisteu, (de tudo aquilo que pode até não estar de todo vivo - ou de todo morto); contradição de um todo-devir também carrasco, mas, em essência, todo-devir de um sorrateiro espaço de tempo do bater de asas de um besouro não mais vivo e nunca catalogado, capturado somente por um pequenino ponteiro vermelho de segundos de um relógio velho, possuído,  em circunstâncias afortunas, por uma avó - ainda hoje vivente - de um tempo atormentado pela tirania e propositalmente esquecido, a proferir não só eternidades-nascedouros e cede ansiada, como, de igual infinita intensidade, a inferir a sublimidade em poderios majestáticos estruturados na mais esplendorosa magia humana, a sua despropria linguagem; ...se apercebe o amontoado, tudo, menos genérico, mesmo não sendo, agora, inseto, nem humano, apenas animal, Que Mantêm-se em correnteza, Metamorfose lavareda.

Daydreams of you haunt me at night, the frightening sight of me holding you tight. Breathing heavy, sweating, looking for a lip to bite. It might be nightmarish to stare into your cold eyes, but cold stares don't lie, they might **** and I might die, but for sure I won't cry. These daydreams scream obscene obscenities torturing my memories, sending me to limbos with no souls, and no way out. I shout into silence and silence then pouts. I fear this dreaded destination, this nation of introspective meditation. Just face it, there's no face to save it, no place for shelter, this helterskelter is inescapable. Incapable but breakable, for sake's sake the will is shakable. These daydreams I swear, scare themselves, like label less books upon empty shelves. Let the faded pages delve deep into the depth of my id and ego, let us see how far the rabbit hole goes, maybe to wonder the underland who truly knows? Daydreams of you haunt me at night, untucked and cold I sleep in fright. Maybe this notion of holding you tight, will send into motion heavy breathing, sweating, and a lip to bite. Now hurry off to bed, for this lullaby is dead, goodnight to thoughts and the whispers in your head.

DayDreams
I had tried to cover it with ink,  *but it only lasted a day before it* bled *from my fingernails. It was a constant reminder that* death  *was Inching closer with every month that past. The ink veined upwards like poison ivy it Slithered, each month passing another leaf Grew and I knew it would soon come to pass.* *It changed depending on mood, when you Were younger you'd of  thought it magical. Each new leaf budding and then it opened a Colourful show for younger minds. Like a mark Of maturity but that was so long ago. Now it Inches above the elbow, shoulder, smiles melted Away to how many more leafs before the fall.* Once it has ascended the flower blood *red Would unfold over your* heart. *Some so few Petals, no time was assured. Then the falling Would start. How many petals would turn*  onyx,  *Culminating in thoughts of life that had many Leafs but now the blossom was ebbing away to a  finite culmination of time. Tears fell, so many cried.* *Watching others when that mortality was arching Towards oblivion, some were at peace making the Most of fading petals. Then there were the fallen Timers, succumbing into limbos insanity. Who could Blame them in their consumed thoughts, they were Screaming wildly in the streets, others tried to Cleaver the flower from their being, crimson fell.* *My time was so complex, when the flowers eclipse Was passing where colour became grey, Dark thoughts Ensued but I knew that nothing would pass except My moments of what was left. So I regained my composure I would not be a fallen I would not be consumed By the decaying flower upon my chest, I had time left And I would savour the moments that fell dark.* *I lay their family were overjoyed that this time was Not spent alone, consumed in denied misgivings.

quietly, in the mornings with only your fingers shades tilted in, the lapis dawn that barely makes it through, door ajar studied, an open book quiz unmentionables, spoken in water drops melted butter shower steam vanilla milk cinnamon. before the sun before breakfast before the earth opens up like it does take it with a grain of salt, with an ounce of optimism the glass ain't even here, we have lakes we have amber canopies, other hands that shield lovers that reach for us mid-dream, us they reach for us in sleep induced affection, they may as well be reaching across continents who knows how far away they dream, fingers sliding across cello strings they make beautiful music while they are here, traveling limbos to find us but we're here in the morning, in the quiet morning. how to eat honeycomb.

Where do I go from here Here being the limbos of choice The frontal antagonism of option Where each road looks similar spelling out the death of my heart Stunting my passions and printing a mundane existence Where I am burdened by a debt of responsibility Bare scrapping change up off the pavement Not filling willing minds with enlightenment joy and inner peace as I wish to be My dreams as grand as the shining gold pillars of some ancient city And wit as sharp as the Chinese whom discovered atomic theory much earlier than western thought had hoped Where do I go from here Do I take up refuge in some major that over times takes my mind into the spinning spiral of numbers Crunching them down to bite sized bits so I don't choke on their rational? How do i know what is right When I've found it and it has been deemed unworthy How do I deny the self?

Questioning
The god dam roads closed behind my Forehead thoughts stop behind never Releasing just stagnant locked behind Two syllables "ROAD CLOSED, I want to wonder in the ideas that Linger behind a sign leaving me Suspended in limbos greeting "Hi I'm having a deliberation, But did hinder to my words, no It just added another plank upon The suspended thoughts that were Tapping upon my skull bored. Dam these motions that are static, Just splash over the restrictions That keep you in my hesitant Thoughts needing imminent release. I think of a number 7 its a mental Thought as I grab it and hack at my Mind, till that closed sign hangs In pieces and lingers on the floor. Then a memory of what was lingering, Flood against the white shore in my Head, and what spills on my mind is This singular piece of inked thought. "When a thought is contained beyond a moment Kick in the door and let it spill forth,

limbos queen
To all the men in all the wars who died for causes they believed in Or found themselves unable to escape the roll of dice that sent       them there. A country posey picked in a shady lane by hands of love and care. To those three thousand souls who fell crushed by towering hatred, And those who fell at other bomber’s hands on other days, A long stemmed perfect snow white rose from the garden of regret. To all the children taken in their innocence on ordinary days, In ordinary places, thought safe from all the madness of insanity, A wreath of multicolor blossoms tied with cotton candy bows. To all the revelers out for fun who sought the music in a crowd, And learned the rhythm of an automatic gun instead, A vase of yellow daisies, with a petal for each one To all the tots who suffered at the hands of those supposed to love  them, And lived with wounds and deprivation until there was no hope of life, A potted red geranium that will go on blooming endlessly. To all the lonely elderly who slipped away without a sound or note, And went into the ground with no sad songs or mourners, A small bouquet of lilies tied with velvet ribbons. To all of those who couldn’t live the number of their ordained days, Felled by accident, disease, or lost in limbos of mental illness, A planting of daffodils to bloom each Spring. So many lives, so many flowers.  So many to grieve and mourn for. Just one day is not enough, nor is a week or year. The best memorial is memory, and it can last forever.       ljm

(Cross heavy) Old found poetry by meself...A cross to bear, nails to tear thick through. Canst thou shovel thine own grave? Gravedigger art thou payed yet for thy expenses? No message's coming on in. Just burdenful sins to cut the blue made veins, where the bloodiest of stains grapple no completing. The dogs are teething as babies to the **** ******** stay stuck in the devils inventions, none to know or mention what society seems to fail. Do we prevail? or get conquered to lost woe fears? Holy spirit shalt thou come near to be thy carriage i lay this carrion body? Claireaudience has found me barraged in darkest of flagrant sadness. Such madness have i been born into, or was the madness thrived in me? No locks nor keys to pass, Limbos fated match, Chimera's live hatched where no love has been given.......

cross heavy
Como cenizas, como mares poblándose, en la sumergida lentitud, en lo informe, o como se oyen desde el alto de los caminos cruzar las campanadas en cruz, teniendo ese sonido ya aparte del metal, confuso, pesando, haciéndose polvo en el mismo molino de las formas demasiado lejos, o recordadas o no vistas, y el perfume de las ciruelas que rodando a tierra se pudren en el tiempo, infinitamente verdes. Aquello todo tan rápido, tan viviente, inmóvil sin embargo, como la polea loca en sí misma, esas ruedas de los motores, en fin. Existiendo como las puntadas secas en las costuras del árbol, callado, por alrededor, de tal modo, mezclando todos los limbos sus colas. Es que de dónde, por dónde, en qué orilla? El rodeo constante, incierto, tan mudo, como las lilas alrededor del convento, o la llegada de la muerte a la lengua del buey que cae a tumbos, guardabajo y cuyos cuernos quieren sonar. Por eso, en lo inmóvil, deteniéndose, percibir, entonces, como aleteo inmenso, encima, como abejas muertas o números, ay, lo que mi corazón pálido no puede abarcar, en multitudes, en lágrimas saliendo apenas, y esfuerzos humanos, tormentas, acciones negras descubiertas de repente como hielos, desorden vasto, oceánico, para mí que entro cantando como con una espada entre indefensos. Ahora bien, de qué está hecho ese surgir de palomas que hay entre la noche y el tiempo, como una barranca húmeda? Ese sonido ya tan largo que cae listando de piedras los caminos, más bien, cuando sólo una hora crece de improviso, extendiéndose sin tregua. Adentro del anillo del verano una vez los grandes zapallos escuchan, estirando sus plantas conmovedoras, de eso, de lo que solicitándose mucho, de lo lleno, obscuros de pesadas gotas.
