"limiter" poems
Hidden in skyscrapers and fairy dust,
Amongst the throngs of faceless mortal men,
Sitting just inside imagination,
We see the spectacle of The Dreamer.
Truly he is as all other humans,
Hair, skin, clothes, a face that shows a past life,
And shimmering eyes that whisper intent.
He is normal, isn't he? So he seems.
But, inside that monotonous human,
Beats the heart and life of the True Dreamer.
In his mind play a thousand different hopes.
A cascade of colors bloom forth for him.
Earth's white walls are slashed and scarred with pigment.
His mind is truly his last limiter.
Raw energy pulses into being.
The Dreamer is as a king, no, a god.
His world, a canvas. Its people, models.
The sticky-sweet joy of life leaps outward.
An explosion, a mesmurizing bomb.
The Dreamer, its epicenter, so bright.
All this in his heart, and only his eyes,
Only his eyes hold the key to his world,
For they are salty seas of deepest light,
As the wonder flows out of his being.

"Impossible"
It's my least favorite swear word,
its the lowly limiter i loathe.
its the only true curse word Ive ever heard and i try hard not to use it.
"she" might hear me
"she" is always open to a challenge
but no..."impossible" is not a word i choose to indulge.
It's too...boring.

One chance
Is all I got
Before you leave me for good
But tell me
If we put a limiter
Like this
On our relationship
Is it still called a relationship?
Or is it a mere test relationship?
To grade it
As a pass
Or a fail
I feel that
Our relationship
Is just a time-bomb
Ticking
Until it meets its end
We are just
On the verge
Waiting
For one of us
To fall
It is what it is

The Terminal Velocity: V= sqrt ( 2W ÷ Cd p A) of your mini van, is a whopping 85 MPH! due to the Drag Equation: D = Cd p V√ A ÷ 2 proving drag/resistance to be too powerful for the 119hp engine in your 3,420 lb van to accelerate beyond the 85 MPH barrier, or perhaps you simply have a rev limiter on your ride.
If you wanted to increase your momentum (p) but not alter your top speed capabilities, what could you add to your vehicle before beginning an acceleration to your destination?

I am glorified the Lord has found a home in me,
He has found a secret place in my heart.
I am sanctified to know that I am his hiding place,
We have relentless intimacy inside my pure heart.
Heaven is guaranteed because nothing can separate us from his love.
I am an immortal soul trapped inside this dying flesh
I can’t wait to vacate this limiter.
I am glad I have found a home in the Lord
He is my secret place full of sufficient grace
Behold I am safe inside his tight embrace.

The book of Laments.
Lamentation
is a three sided occupation
that we're all occupied with.
Triangles are a turn on
for this Pythagorean.
I find connections in the unlikeliest of places
I always have done, though
this third son of a second son never made it past
the seventh grade.
Sometime time expired when the meter reader's tired
and the perimeter is the limiter and the brain goes into overdrive
then it's difficult, but I will survive and the
black and white is cruising
down another memory lane
and hearing a blast from the past,
thinks it's a gunshot.
It runs on under steam and in the steam
the fogs of dreams, I've seen
where ***** grinder's monkeys grin
In the unlikeliest of faces where a kindness lurks,
good works have been orchestrated.

"WHO THE HELL DO YOU THINK I AM,
Do you really think that someone like YOU could manage to **** ME,
I have been through things that you will never know,
I have done things, UNSPEAKABLE THINGS, To ensure the safety and the growth of the next generation,
I have sat on the side lines, JUST to watch my comrades, MY friends, MY FAMILY die and retire to their normal lives,
JUST SO THAT PEOPLE LIKE YOU, COULD strengthen their resolve, SO that you may push them to defeat you by THEIR RULES...
BUT GUESS WHAT?
I don't abide by your rules,
I left so that I can be their villain, their antagonist, Their DRIVING FORCE,
I have seen one generation grow into the people that you want them to be, and that's one generation to much,
YOU DON'T DESERVE TO HAVE THEM FOLLOW IN YOUR STEPS,
YOU Don't deserve to be your so called HERO,
It's your fault that this war has gone on this long,
That this war has influenced the lives of us first Gens,
That this war has effected timelines where I get to grow up happy,
NO,
Timelines that are pedestrians to your little spat with yourself,
Do you know what it's like to be ME,
I have lived so many lives, That your entire existence doesn't come close to meeting mine in experience,
I Have gone through so many of your "Trails" just so that I could become what YOU wanted me to be,
And yet here we are,
Me standing against the old man once more,
The man who put me through so much,
The man who Exiled me so many times,
The man who forced me to relieve the same sadness, the same sorrow, not because you wanted me to fix others, but to ensure that I had the strength to break them, the strength to tackle every challenge in my path, THE STRENGTH TO HURT THOSE THAT I LOVED MOST....
You know what it's like to go through this, and yet you made me,
No,
You're making her go through this life, no this same torture, just so that you can win, so that your "order" can continue, and others will be called to this battle....
I've lived my life doing this,
I've lived my lives doing this,
I have given my life to save them,
I may hate your order,
I may hate how you do things,
But I dam well care about all those kids that you're training,
The 3rd Generation will not go through the same thing that I have, that WE have.
I will ensure that,
I WILL PROMISE YOU THAT,
I may have allowed you to live in the past, but that doesn't exlude you from your duty,
You will protect these kids, I will protect these kids,
But more importantly,
I will LIVE so that these kids can have a future where they get to retire and live a normal life.
As the last remaining first Gen, I swear to you,
I SWEAR TO ALL OF YOU WATCHING,
That by my name,
I will Live,
I will keep getting back up,
I will keep moving forward,
I change the outcome that I have seen.
So I ask you once more,
WHO DO YOU THINK I AM,
I'LL TELL YOU WHO!!
I am Exilus,
The Nexes Reformed,
The last remaining First generational child.
And these timelines, these lives,
Are under my protection.
And I just stalled you long enough to get my Limiter off."
