"metal" poems
I followed my dear friends to the edge of a cliff and was greeted by a peculiar thing. There, standing on the edge of the earth was a swing set waiting just for me. Her thick black seat and strong metal arms cradled me while together we flew into the starry night canvas, sprawling dark blue, except for a splatter of twinkling firefly-speckles, from the cityscape to the moon. Each time she lifted me I felt closer to the heavens. I raised my chin and let the gentle kiss of raindrops wash away my sins, cleansing and revitalizing my body like a baptism. I’ll never forget the smell of the rain on the freshly-sprouted grass, with dew drops made from the breath of my friends hanging delicately in the sweet air like glass beads strung on a wire while the crisp wind carried me higher and higher and the most brilliant masterpiece ever created was painted across the entire night sky.

Swinging in the Rain
Drunk as drunk on turpentine From your open kisses, Your wet body wedged Between my wet body and the strake Of our boat that is made of flowers, Feasted, we guide it - our fingers Like tallows adorned with yellow metal - Over the sky's hot rim, The day's last breath in our sails. Pinned by the sun between solstice And equinox, drowsy and tangled together We drifted for months and woke With the bitter taste of land on our lips, Eyelids all sticky, and we longed for lime And the sound of a rope Lowering a bucket down its well. Then, We came by night to the Fortunate Isles, And lay like fish Under the net of our kisses.

Drunk As Drunk
How do you explain to your children that the horrors of the world are real? How will I tell my son, We found a place you can call home but your bus might not make it to school. Do not look too Jewish in this part of town Do not play in the train station Do not get used to the weight of a machine gun. Or look my daughter in the eye and say, someday you might say “no” and someone stronger than you might not listen You will not tell me Know that this happens a lot Know that your wrists pinned against a backboard will echo in the way you move your hands for as long as you let it But human hands aren’t as heavy as metal shackles And I’m so sorry but I won’t be able to take the weight for you You’ll wake up in the morning That I can promise you You’ll wake up and your lungs will fill with air whether you tell them to or not. One day I will hold someone small, with my face and they’ll cry and I’ll say, *I know. I know you’re tied with little yarn strings to the last life I know it hurts to be here and (honestly) you’re never going back But the older you get the less you’ll remember what it was like before you had a body when you were made of ash and infinite light You’ll convince yourself you live here and that your hands are you, But remember that once you were boundless Inside my body, without yours.*

children
Sitting in some car in a forgotten parking lot Grey marks the skies Lush green plants peeping in The wildlife of concrete and paint makes the perfect background For Little ***** of liquid heaven falling on my windscreen And some music to complete the scene Each guitar line synchronises with each raindrop Each blast of power thunder hits hard like heavy metal But the soft clouds, the gentle ebb and flow lull me to sleep Whispering, persuading me to dream But I really don't want to miss this shard of time I never want to lose little moments like these A silver raindrop is born by landing on my car Crash landing, rather The bubbling pocket of mystery travels down Swerving and slamming into other fellow pockets in crime It's life cycle completes when it reaches the bottom It races to it's death, unable to stop gravity's plan for it Each drop morphs into another, making a wave The rain weaves an intricate web of waves All strutting their sparkly magic before me I sense a metaphor for humanity creeping in Millions of crescendos growing about Too concerned with their internal politics to worry about others But I stay focused on the beauty all around I wonder if heaven has rainy days If so, this must be one of them

That Rain Poem
I want to beat you to death with a blunt object. I want to grab one of those high-end fashion mannequins by the ankles and bash your ribcage in. I want to sharpen fifty pencils, bind them with a rubber band, stick the lead ends in your mouth, and punch the erasers. I want to strap you to a bed of nails and then strap that bed of nails to the hood of my car so I can watch you suffer as we drive over speed bumps in a mall parking lot during an earthquake. I want to burn your dog in front of you, mix his ashes with gunpowder, melt his bone-shaped name tag into a small metal ball, load it all into a musket, and shoot you in the face with him. I want you to somehow survive a terrible car crash and then somehow not survive a small fender ****** on the way back from the hospital.

I Want to Beat You to Death
It is the sparkle in your eyes Not the curve of your lips That smile in your eyes The smile that never lies Charming, tender I'll always remember The first time you smiled at me. Like magnet to metal Your smile draws me in You taught me how to smile Your smile; I hope it never lies

YOUR SMILE
Kasabay ng aking paggawa ng tula ay ang pagbitaw sa pangako mo na "akin kang babalikan" Kasabay ng pagiba ng ihip ng hangin ay ang pagtangay sa puso kong dati'y walang ibang isinisigaw kundi ang iyong pangalan Isa kang salamangkero Pinaniwala mo ako sa mahikang kailanma'y 'di totoo Pinaniwala mo ako sa pag-ibig Pag-ibig na nagpalapit sa atin Pinaniwala mo ako sa pag-ibig Pinaniwala mo ako sa pag-ibig Pero teka Pag-ibig nga ba iyon o isa lang iyon sa mga pelikulang iyong nilikha? Na sa umpisa palang ay nakalagay na ang mga katagang "Babala: ang sususnod na programa ay walang halong katotohanan Huwag seseryosohin" Una palang kitang nakita, nakuha mo na agad ang aking atensyon Katulad ng isang kwintas Una mo palang makita, hindi mo mapipigilan na mapalapit agad iyon sa puso mo Naaalala mo pa ba ang regalo mo sa akin? Kwintas na may hugis pusong disenyo Sabi mo, iyon ang sumisimbolo na nasa akin na ang iyong puso Ngayon, alam ko na kung bakit Dahil tulad ng metal na kwintas na iyon, Ganon din katigas ang nilalaman ng iyong dibdib

Ang Huling Tulang Gagawin ko Para sa Iyo
In the digital l-and We l-ive in Mistakenly automatic One pointing at a chest of tools Eyes on i No soul can tell a part a weakling metal Robots robbing robbers rich T-error terrifying t-errorists Artist gods and goddesses Sharing platform to unleashed gifts Mint hue bubbles squeak Fizzy dizzy violet haze World head to toes spins Any day it spins coins in change A quiet girl is sinister Siren of mystery or future Robot is your mirror Peach chin with teeth filter No innocence and glitter litter Guilty until proven the latter A quiet girl a terrorist Error mouths terror twist Terrorist from the orient They hide in between every end Disguises they cover in Racist as problem solving Smile girl watch A fake smile and eyes Skin of steel so is her Heart made alloy How it blazes to the touch when heated Oh it bites fingertips as it's cold Hair resting on the curve of her spine A woman's hair only breaks if it tries to grow What she said Tell me if you can tell us a part Warning tears borne from her crooked eyes Robot and soul Terrorists from t-errorists No soul knows either Tattoos or memory shall identify you

Terror in a puzzle piece
I  am facing yet another war, and I know you are too. So please know, This battle is worth fighting for you. I rather be loved by the outcasted, Then to be hated by the royalty. But I will always be a princess suited in metal armor. I promise to hold your hand and clense you of your wounds, I promise to always listen,  validate, and accept you no matter what weight, age, color, size, sexuality or diagnosis. I promise to always fight for your safe haven to become the world you live in. Even if you do not think you are worth it, I always will. Equality for all, Or equality for none.

Last Note for the Fighters
Great tragedy suffered, Impossible circumstances conquered, The warrior walks upon the field flanked path. The wanderer's armor tells a tale, Battle scarred and partially rent asunder, A face of stoicism that hides the haggardness underneath, Peeking out beneath the mask of a hardened soldier. The clouds clap ahead, preceded by flashes of light brightly illuminating the world, Accompanied shortly after by the rainfall. A trickle becomes a downpour, The battered individual trudging along as the road becomes a bog of mud and slop, The message firmly planted within their mind. Coming upon the dark outline of the castle ahead the warrior picks up pace, Reflecting upon what would happen to those that the Warrior helped. The pace is now fueled by a different kind of urgency. The rain is cold upon the face's of those that it falls on, The torn edges of metal digging in at places, Some already wounded and tender, As the final hilltop between them is crested. The gates are closed, And this loyal soldier is for the moment shut out, A fist is raised, The declaration of allegiance given, An angry detailing of the warriors achievements and adventures shouted, And a challenge of one's path, Building in anger and fury as the dam finally breaks and gushes forth, Threatening to shatter the gate and doors to splinters and twisted metal. A long ago promised gift to be rewarded, For all the things endured, Things that could be considered so cruel, The storm picks up in force until it's akin to that of a hurricane, As if brought forth by the warrior's grief and pain finally being released, For the first and only time. These things ringing out despite the storms roaring wind, Gathering force, Perhaps in affirmation of the warrior's words. After a pause the gate begins to lift, It's metal screeching, The doors groaning as they begin to swing outward, and the battered soldier is bathed in light, Taking the weight from the warrior's shoulders, As the threshold is finally crossed.

White People
he was her world, her whole life depends on him. She didn't care about the ups and downs, hell or disaster. He was her happiness. but he didn't pay attention to any of it. For him, she was dull, empty and raw. Like she was the core of the earth or even the asteroids—a pest to the universe. for him, she was madness. their feelings are both opposite. it was like hate and love trying to bond each other. like a volcano erupting but it was insanely beautiful. the more you hate, the more you love—a myth from our ancestors. hopefully destiny can find true love. hopefully he will realize how pure and lovely she is. hopefully they find true love to each other.

The Indian Chief & Road King
A wild flight into drizzled dark night The chorus line thumping Overcome by roar and strain Of metal tested to limits as we race An endless risk disregarded as thought And the sound of a bright giggle Wondrous eyes lit in thrill of threat Fear has no place in this setting A manic gleam and set to her face Sharing a secret as we laugh and howl Because this is who we are For all out control and desire We scream endlessly through life eternally silent Until we do not have to be And in glory we release! Fear is a thing to be learnt A feeling to ******* and freeze Is it felt here? A resounding no! Shatters the question In the screech of tires In the surge of adrenaline In the wild savage smile of freedom Of a shout into the night in defiance of order! Does my heart race as we tear around? Not even a tremor! Until I turn, My face from the moaning wind rushing past And i gaze upon this savage exposed Lips pulled back in ferocious glee A focused and fierce glare to the world We deny life and taunt the spectre Come to us, we cry! The paths are slick with tears of the gods The roads tempestuous writhing in deceit I sit in peace, relaxed A warrior companion at my side We know no fear of what may come For trust Ah trust Is the colour of life Ever shadowed as a challenge to endings! She lights as a fire of the brightest stars And i would embrace her Burning endlessly.

Trust
I hardly remember a ******* thing about that day before gazing into his eyes once again, for the first time rushing toward the exit running from the baggage claim; it was all a blur, as walked through those doors all I remember was the vastness of the first sight, stepping into the bright, unfamiliar place & nothing else, but him I scanned the crowd the strange faces waiting for loved ones emotion thick enough to touch in the air, but just to my right in the front with his body pressed up against the metal bar, I saw him it was the first time I saw his face not through a photo or webcam in a time that was so long it ached I think I lost my breath did I leave my things behind when I ran? I don't remember, I just ran to him it was too surreal I can't remember a moment between seeing his face, & kissing his lips nor what kind of kiss it was or how long it lasted I just couldn't fathom it I was really there it was really him & it didn't matter where we were it was all a wonderland to me, I was holding his hand again everything was bright & new it was magic, pure magic

reunited at the airport terminal
Love, the world Suddenly turns, turns color. The streetlight Splits through the rat's tail Pods of the laburnum at nine in the morning. It is the Arctic, This little black Circle, with its tawn silk grasses - babies hair. There is a green in the air, Soft, delectable. It cushions me lovingly. I am flushed and warm. I think I may be enormous, I am so stupidly happy, My Wellingtons Squelching and squelching through the beautiful red. This is my property. Two times a day I pace it, sniffing The barbarous holly with its viridian Scallops, pure iron, And the wall of the odd corpses. I love them. I love them like history. The apples are golden, Imagine it ---- My seventy trees Holding their gold-ruddy ***** In a thick gray death-soup, Their million Gold leaves metal and breathless. O love, O celibate. Nobody but me Walks the waist high wet. The irreplaceable Golds bleed and deepen, the mouths of Thermopylae.

Letter In November
You are going to ask: and where are the lilacs? and the poppy-petalled metaphysics? and the rain repeatedly spattering its words and drilling them full of apertures and birds? I'll tell you all the news. I lived in a suburb, a suburb of Madrid, with bells, and clocks, and trees. From there you could look out over Castille's dry face: a leather ocean. My house was called the house of flowers, because in every cranny geraniums burst: it was a good-looking house with its dogs and children. Remember, Raul? Eh, Rafel? Federico, do you remember from under the ground my balconies on which the light of June drowned flowers in your mouth? Brother, my brother! Everything loud with big voices, the salt of merchandises, pile-ups of palpitating bread, the stalls of my suburb of Arguelles with its statue like a drained inkwell in a swirl of hake: oil flowed into spoons, a deep baying of feet and hands swelled in the streets, metres, litres, the sharp measure of life, stacked-up fish, the texture of roofs with a cold sun in which the weather vane falters, the fine, frenzied ivory of potatoes, wave on wave of tomatoes rolling down the sea. And one morning all that was burning, one morning the bonfires leapt out of the earth devouring human beings -- and from then on fire, gunpowder from then on, and from then on blood. Bandits with planes and Moors, bandits with finger-rings and duchesses, bandits with black friars spattering blessings came through the sky to **** children and the blood of children ran through the streets without fuss, like children's blood. Jackals that the jackals would despise, stones that the dry thistle would bite on and spit out, vipers that the vipers would abominate! Face to face with you I have seen the blood of Spain tower like a tide to drown you in one wave of pride and knives! Treacherous generals: see my dead house, look at broken Spain : from every house burning metal flows instead of flowers, from every socket of Spain Spain emerges and from every dead child a rifle with eyes, and from every crime bullets are born which will one day find the bull's eye of your hearts. And you'll ask: why doesn't his poetry speak of dreams and leaves and the great volcanoes of his native land? Come and see the blood in the streets. Come and see The blood in the streets. Come and see the blood In the streets!

Dal Lake I float on Dal Lake Suspended between the thick soupy crisp air of soldiers water lilies, Kashmiri bread and the Muslim prayers that penetrate the hardness of war chanting Allah Bismallah Floating Islam Holy words drenching the air Drenching the green cloth of Hindu soldiers Sliding down the cool metal of a rifle 9 years of war 1,000 houseboats lie empty in the Himalayan fog Intricately carved furniture Thick with dust and the powder of blood and bullets Himalayan silhouette etched black against the song of lotus gatherers Foggy voices like cloud of moon Lotus lake Gray of war and desperation Children beg 1 rupee 1 rupee 1 rupee Endless monologue Parched like lotus shaped paddle They throw flowers to me endlessly I throw them back endlessly Time passes slowly like smoke on a lizard’s tail trailing in the thick, rancid air of burning meat and maple leaves Like a shikara moving over the glass of Kashmir The sound of a dozen Bangees floating over the water Hollow, solemn and mournful Echoing against the hardness of the surrounding mountains The circle of Himalayas Like a womb around the prayers of Pachin In the middle of the lake I hear the call to prayer Azan Nemarz Suba Azan Nemarz Pashin Azan Nemarz Degar Azan Nemarz Sham Azan Nemarz Koftan From dawn till dusk Azan 4 mosques 4 singers 4 directions staggered by a breath like an imperfect echo Azan slips into the pockets of island soldiers Waters the impatience of soldiers on the shore Steals into the vacant eyes of soldiers in the Mosque They want to go home to their wives and children They want to leave the place of prayer, which is not theirs The place of prayer, which has seen death The place where God was pushed out In order to not see the killing To **** what they don’t see The place, which was no longer a refuge Outside Dal Lake turns to the color of red lentils cooking in a dented metal *** In the Shikara boat we eat dal and rice and throw scraps into the silver water where it washes up onto the ***** boots of a soldier I hear the dull gray click, click of his rifle as it touches the ground The prayers have ended

How do you fill the void without a billion stars? In this empty universe, my mind and heart collide And as they seem to whirl, flutter and fall apart I'm always lonely, always drowning in the sands of time. They say home is, where the heart is What if I'm a robot, am I heartless? Do I have an engine here in my chest? Am I lesser than a human, I'm a project? Do I do what I have been assigned to? Are my feelings and my thoughts not true? Sometimes I feel like I'm running out of fuel Everything I do is out of tune Then I get autotuned. I generate heat,  yet I still need warmth They say I'm cold, all I do is loathe But inside I know, I just need some love When all I get is rocks sent from above This is your planet, but it's filthy, I'm a foreigner in this city Born without a mission, Like a player without a CD If I stay persistent, will these wicked issues Stop being vicious? As I'm  always wishing They would disappear and my track get clear. Or maybe I'm just here to feel this fear? Electric shocks, my battery is burning Yet I’m just a casket, empty and unfurnished A system of transistors, I never keep consistence Transist me to a kingdom of purposeful existence My body as it’s glistening, you might see it from a distance As I reflect the light but I never gain wisdom There’s no friendship, there’s a treason Maybe humans are the demons, I might be a robot, but I’m certainly not a minion I’m just a set of codes on a hard drive Written for certain actions, all life I’ve been following the tasks, it’s alright But everything is in flames, it’s on fire But it’s time to break the leash, Sp I’m pulling up my sleeves, As I am not your slave, so now you’ll be on your knees, ‘cause I never work for free, Now you all gonna pay the fee Or else the world is gonna meet my metal weaponry.

The residue of ***** lined the empty bottle. A deep inhale of smoke, an exhale of problems. Lightheaded I fumble, clasping a cold lifeless piece of metal. I cried "save me" release all my demons. I am safe for now, drowning in a sea of crimson security.

Self Hate
The prologues are over. It is a question, now, Of final belief. So, say that final belief Must be in a fiction. It is time to choose. I That obsolete fiction of the wide river in An empty land; the gods that Boucher killed; And the metal heroes that time granulates - The philosophers' man alone still walks in dew, Still by the sea-side mutters milky lines Concerning an immaculate imagery. If you say on the hautboy man is not enough, Can never stand as a god, is ever wrong In the end, however naked, tall, there is still The impossible possible philosophers' man, The man who has had the time to think enough, The central man, the human globe, responsive As a mirror with a voice, the man of glass, Who in a million diamonds sums us up. II He is the transparence of the place in which He is and in his poems we find peace. He sets this peddler's pie and cries in summer, The glass man, cold and numbered, dewily cries, "Thou art not August unless I make thee so." Clandestine steps upon imagined stairs Climb through the night, because his cuckoos call. III One year, death and war prevented the jasmine scent And the jasmine islands were ****** martyrdoms. How was it then with the central man? Did we Find peace? We found the sum of men. We found, If we found the central evil, the central good. We buried the fallen without jasmine crowns. There was nothing he did not suffer, no; nor we. It was not as if the jasmine ever returned. But we and the diamond globe at last were one. We had always been partly one. It was as we came To see him, that we were wholly one, as we heard Him chanting for those buried in their blood, In the jasmine haunted forests, that we knew The glass man, without external reference.

The prologues are over. It is a question, now, Of final belief. So, say that final belief Must be in a fiction. It is time to choose. I That obsolete fiction of the wide river in An empty land; the gods that Boucher killed; And the metal heroes that time granulates - The philosophers' man alone still walks in dew, Still by the sea-side mutters milky lines Concerning an immaculate imagery. If you say on the hautboy man is not enough, Can never stand as a god, is ever wrong In the end, however naked, tall, there is still The impossible possible philosophers' man, The man who has had the time to think enough, The central man, the human globe, responsive As a mirror with a voice, the man of glass, Who in a million diamonds sums us up. II He is the transparence of the place in which He is and in his poems we find peace. He sets this peddler's pie and cries in summer, The glass man, cold and numbered, dewily cries, "Thou art not August unless I make thee so." Clandestine steps upon imagined stairs Climb through the night, because his cuckoos call. III One year, death and war prevented the jasmine scent And the jasmine islands were ****** martyrdoms. How was it then with the central man? Did we Find peace? We found the sum of men. We found, If we found the central evil, the central good. We buried the fallen without jasmine crowns. There was nothing he did not suffer, no; nor we. It was not as if the jasmine ever returned. But we and the diamond globe at last were one. We had always been partly one. It was as we came To see him, that we were wholly one, as we heard Him chanting for those buried in their blood, In the jasmine haunted forests, that we knew The glass man, without external reference.

Selfies, I can smell the desperation, from here. odors of worry; rippling anxities of uncertainity. two dimensional, instantaneous impressions, pixelated presentations, and Teenage frustrations. up tilted camera. held against the light, Illuminating eyes , and eradicating spots. that looks like a good one. Vicarious representation; of how good one could look, fallible and hopeful. big bosomed dame showcasing blessed cleavage, pulsating the adolescent bulges. delivered to metal passenger, thereafter shown among peers. networked to unknown. Friends who'd never met eye, or touched skin, or even spoke. self conscious cropping of images. fat and fearful. wasted hours, dying for love. False dream of captivating the messes with her selfie. The very ugliness of impressions. Oh, how shallow we've became. The denial of the impact of aesthetics. laughable, torrents of judgement Skinny, fat, ugly, behold their desperate eyes behind the selfie.

Shame of the selfie
You kiss like electricity Flowing through my veins like a circuit You should have a warning sign Because it's more addictive than nicotine in a vein And there's no way I can refrain Releasing energy only a powerplant can contain My skin may not be metal But your touch makes it just as conductive You kiss like the sea And you're as strong as the tide Completely filled with mystery The more I drink the thirstier I get

You Kiss Like Electricity
it's time for christmas baking whether you know how to or not the thing you must remember is that the oven gets quite hot it's not that i'm an imbesile or that my mind is set on slow there's things 'bout christmas baking that everyone should know turning up the temperature will not make things bake much quicker and you'll never get your baking done if you start hitting the liquor liquor helps but not that way it's for the the recipe...not you because the first drink goes down smooth it always tastes like two my icing stuck to everything it even melted on my cat the dog thought fluffy was his treat and that my friends was that metal in the microwave makes great sparks but doesn't cook in fact it's quite explosive if you take the time to look peanut butter rollups are easy and look cool but with so many kids allergic you can't sell them at the school the best way to do baking is to buy them from the store put them on a plate you own and don't say any more if people want the recipe say it's secret, you can't tell you're granny took it to her grave besides, they all do this as well take my advice on baking don't bake if you can buy because you'll never get it perfect no matter how you try.

christmas baking
*what forests are those we pass, blazing along the railway tracks, a tree bloom of still cranes, stream black of ******* bane, stench of dead city rubble, factories of rusted cast metal, distant cotton twilight skies, sun slide across a bunch of wires,     passing tunnels echo lonely platforms, frantic gecko, looming hillside, crackle dry wood fire, a god barred in lock&key,  blink glimpse of the sea  one rush of vision, pebble fling at frisson, metal-crunch rhythm, grind music sublime, spark, grunt, grate, we arrive, we dissipate...*
