*~ **Him sits in an arm chair slouched and relaxed, watching her with a glass of whiskey in his hand** ~ Her lays on the bed naked, long legs spread watching him watching her. ~ **Him asks her to do what he had been dreaming of even before seeing her naked. Beautiful scenery** ~ Her strokes light and feathery, at first delicate fingers tracing up and down while the other hand on her breast tipping her nip ~ **Him mesmerized by the show he takes a sip of whiskey the burn does not compare to the burn growing in his pants** ~ Her dips a finger inside, spreading the glistening liquid found across her inner lips increasing the pressure and moving from side to side ~ **Him doesn’t know where to look as she concentrates on her ****** pulling at the tip she gnaws her bottom lip he settles on her eyes** ~ Her picks up speed, the circles of her fingers smaller and smaller, focusing on her pearl shallow breaths growing rapid as she nears her peak ~ **Him slips out of his shirt he starts to sweat unbuckling his pants to release the growing pressure** ~ Her tilts her hips finding the optimal position to intensify her pleasure ~ **Him holds his breath to hear the gasping of her breath** ~ Her eyes on him, longingly, back arches, head falls back and lips part “Oh God” in heavy breath ~ **Him “Amazing” whispers unsure he said it aloud** ~*

Armchair Whiskey Scene
I was a flailing phoenix Trapped underneath a waterfall Unable to rise from the ashes While being continuously extinguished Until you constructed a dam With the flotsam from my heart I opened my wings and emitted light Fearing waterfalls I took my fire flight I was elated to have migrated Where the weather was tropical And the conditions seemed optimal But your aggravating absence Endeared an enigmatic essence A vengeful apparition That conjured rain I desperately craved your protection from the elements Until I noticed the precipitation was my infatuation For you and the things you do The things you build Make rivers stay still And the things you say Make me regret being gay Because you're a ****** You live in your exclusive dam Your teeth are like cleavers Gnawing on sacrificial lamb

If you want to call me vegan, I'll not fight with you, although the statement's not quite true It's not exactly wrong either It's true I don't eat meat, or eggs, or anything with wings or legs, but in way of a confession, you might find in my possession a leather belt or shoes, which for a vegan is bad news I don't really mean to quibble, concerning what I nibble, but I'm trying here to say in this convoluted way that for a vegan it's all about the animals I'm not in it for the animals, but rather for my health and for the planet I surely won't deny it -- I eat a vegan diet, and to some degree I care what fellow creatures have to bear, and resulting from my wishin' for optimal nutrition they benefit from my selfish choice to not consume them But in the end you have to see that I eat this way for me I don't deserve the noble label, but when I'm sitting at your table, if you want to call me vegan, then I'll not disagree.

My thoughts are chemicals. I am made of recycled cells That I ingest, I take in what's best For optimal health, active or at rest. My DNA as mysterious as the Cosmos, The Cosmos less of a mystery than Ocean floors. I come from the Ocean, an awesome notion, A family with all others, every Thing is a cousin. My ancestors all made it to reproduction. I am assembled, through history, through selection. My traits have been crafted, positively reacted. Nurtured by Nature, genes that have lasted. I am made from the stars, Drink water that passed through dinosaurs. I experience Life, though filled with a bounty of strife, Through eyes of a Human, intelligence my paradise. And though my species feels more advanced And in control of a world we craft with our own hands, We are not self-efficient, resources increasingly deficient, A virus to be easily shaken, in which the planet would not be missing. I have a fleeting gift, Amidst the destruction that here lives, And that is my consciousness, No fear of abyss, no promise of bliss, But in my spark of a lifetime, Seemingly insignificant, and that's fine, I have inside endless thoughts with my mind, No need of afterlife with a gift so divine.

On Celebrating Life
Divergent as always, I'm flying a kite in an avalanche zone. Inevitably, from your safe harbor, you will judge me. I yell, "this, this is liberation!" But you don't see me as a revolutionary. You'll take me for savage. Medicate the unprecedented out of my veins Cover me in a quilt of your culture, label it safety. Repression of variation, of the noise and the bold, is optimal for this society. Freefalling enthusiasm isn't exhilarating to you, and paint splatters aren't modern art They are just a mess on a clean canvas

These optical illusions Create an optimal confusion When eyes are a welcome intrusion To the brain's inevitable conclusion We stared into the mystic mirror I witnessed everything I ever wanted in life All you witnessed was just two people standing there The transparency you cast upon me Reminded me of how the plumes of **** smoke Were never as thick as my problems And as those clouds left my mouth and dispersed into the air I saw your image Preserved in briefness It's a shame how my magician's mind Summons smoke and mirrors Nobody else believes me But magic is the only way to explain you The way you turned me invisible Was spectacular Your methods of sawing me in half Certainly weren't natural And your teleportation demonstration Left me suspended in ice So I guess I'm to Blaine For the mirrors I erected And the truth they reflected Because now I'm lost In what I refuse to call a funhouse As I search frantically for some ancient tomb That might reveal your brilliant incantations Attempting to ignore the horrid revelation That every spell I learned Had been based in your arcane aura And all the power I had gained Had been based in your enchantment I want a magician Not an illusionist So what does it mean when your illusions are so magical?

Illusions
To make wine, Grapes are crushed then poured into fermentation tanks. Once fermentation begins, the grape skins are pushed to the surface by carbon dioxide gases released in the fermentation process. I am the only fruit who has the necessary acids to make natural, stable wine. My tannins add a bitterness and astringency, But I must be picked at the right time. My acidity and sweetness must be zen in balance. The right ones are sorted through, but not all of us make the cut. Unable to be served as sweet wine, too bitter. Some more sweet, not bitter enough. Simply picked at the wrong time, their peak unwanted, forgotten. After being sorted we are destemmed and crushed. Our roots ripped from us, dignity stomped upon. For years, it was done manually, by foot. Now, preformed mechanically, systematically. But hey! "Mechanical pressing has brought tremendous sanitary gains as well as increased the longevity and quality of wine." Grape abuse continues, white wine grapes are quickly crushed. Why do you ask? To keep unwanted "color" from leeching into the wine. But red wine, Red wine is left in contact with it's skin, forced to acquire more color, more flavor and additional tannins. After being sorted and crushed, I naturally ferment with in six to twelve hours. This continues until all my sugar, Is converted to alcohol. To produce dry, wine. The final stage is aging. I am bottled with a cork, Put on a shelf. And ironically, await my optimal fruitfulness.

Etheree #$% [The Most Bizarre Bazaar]
I feel so many feelings all the time. I am a feeling being. I need to feel to understand the meaning of my experiences in comparison to my needs and aspirations. But my feelings happen intuitively and prior to careful evidence-based reasoning and so my feelings are not philosophically reasonable and so my feelings are dangerous if I use my feelings to define what reality is. I protect myself from unphilosophical unreasonable feelings by never enacting my feelings, by never reacting motivated by feelings; rather I use my feelings only as information that I am having feelings and so my needs and aspirations may be affected in some way by my experiences which led to my feelings; then I reflect on my experiences to philosophically reasonably discover how it is most useful for me to feel to achieve my optimal joy an happiness.

Layout every human endeavor In a rational grid, As one would setting up an experimental ag station, Keep careful data on all the plot inputs and outputs and I believe the data will Indicate that well prepared soil, Infused with the required nutrients, The best pretested seed, And optimal hydration Will yield over time Suboptimal performance. Too many chiefs and not enough serendipity. (Hey, is that PC?) Can you say that today?. In an inevitable changing world You need to preserve strange outliers.

O LOVE! O LOVE! WHY ARE YOU EVER DEVOID OF LOGIC? Alexander K Opicho (Eldoret, Kenya; [email protected]) Mankind in its pathetic folly entice you in a dint of stupor Knowing not your true colour and texture Endeavoring to achieve glory in your mastery With the so limited human capacity In grey faith that you are a cradle of bliss But O love! Why are you ever crooked? Young men and women in strength of their sinews Toil day and night in ******* of humanity Praying and whining incantations with the hope for optimal love Ornamenting their bodies with diamond and bronze Fibre and silk ornamented to helm of providence In the foolish quest for love equillibria But in full stretch of your vice, you impish love You catapult all away to the shifted goal posts O love!

You hate the learned but you favour the strong You hate professors but you favour the soldiers You hate the rich but you favour the agile You hate the lawyers but you favour the footballers You hate the pastors but you favour the ruffian You hate the whites but you favour the Negroes You hate the groomed but you love the ragamuffin You hate the chaste but you favour the mistress O love! O love! Why are you ever illogical? Love, I revere you for wickedness and irrationality In all of your history you scored sum *** laude In the duo as blend of your domain, Look; You never dwell in a genuine companionship You like where the couth will interject; Amidst fornication between married and single ones Amidst adultery in the triangle of foul compassion Amidst miscegenation between black and white Amidst infatuation between the whole and the lame Amidst conjugal appetite between the old and the young Amidst concupiscence between house master and houshelp Amidst immorality of married master over the wallowing servant Amidst libidos between literate teacher unto the peasant pupil Amidst disordered passion among the sly lesbians Amidst impious ********** among the suave gays O love! O love! You are the most wicked force! Love I am told; your colour is red You may be red or you may not be red But all in all, you deserve poetical veneration For your herculean ability to bend the most wise; In your force you made sagacious Shakespeare to bend In your force you made Princes Diana to bend and bend Bending downwardly stooping for Afawoyed the moor, In your stupefying dint you made Napoleon de Bonaparte To bend and bend downwardly stooping for Josephine Josephine a famed she-Casanova in the gone Paris Among the then humanity and the then animality, In your impairing machinery you set sons on their fathers In the roman empire of Antony and Ceaser In the scramble for Cleopatra, the Egyptian queen Beauty of her aquiline nose heavily hovered perhaps In the eyes of the Roman beholders The father and the son only to sent the empire To the love forlorn smithereens!

I often find that the people I know are polarized, they range from, positive to negative, you have your optimists, your idealists, your cynics, your nihilists, and oddly enough, everyone else. Optimists believe in Hamilton's Principle, but they tailor it to our own fabric, they believe that for some unknown reason, the current situation is the optimal one, everything will be alright, que sera sera, carpe diem. Idealists believe in truth, they understand what is ideal, and what is not, they attempt to apply such principles to the observed world, and more often than not, they fail, but that's alright, they tried their best. Cynics view the world as it is, they observe and make rational judgement, realism at its finest, a time tested trait, pragmatism has served them well. Nihilists believe that life is without intrinsic meaning, there is nothing that cannot be observed, a craft of existentialist theory, they assert that morality is a figment of mankind's imagination, and for all we know, they could be right. And finally we have the remainder, those of us we have no idea what we believe, no path traced in the sand, no trail blazed in the years prior, and sometimes I think that perhaps this group is right, there are limits to human understanding, and so I ask, how can we know, oh, how can we know?

It started with existence just a lowly perspective of a mute time when I was able to make sense of this pressure make sense of why you are now here to guide me now on this looser journey; a lonely crabapple still grappling at shriveled skin creating a face that I still cannot distinguish. With the end of presence as we know it you have finished, rightly in my dressing room bright screen lit up but only for a moment do I dare look away. It started with you, and it will end with you Closed off from me, shortly your bioluminescence radiant, your perfection incomplete. I’ve known you for six straight years or was it five just enough construed construction, a bloated piece of mind that left me free to wander aimlessly down I path I cannot recognize. It was you who caused my blunder, keeping me awake every night with your brightness and distraction and amiable personality. I decorated you with bits of me, tangled in and out like woven webs of cybernetics optimal connections, you died twice and I revived you. But that was in the past and you still cling on, for how much longer I shan’t not know. Only that what it means to exist when I should be letting go. I have to face the trust of reality and its weakened points; that dangerous, well-formed world I find myself in. I hope you can follow me as long as you are able, my clunky plastic compadre your heart is metal mixed with other kinds of fragile contraptions. I know this end to my happiness is not your fault. You were there when I needed you most, even if you are a tool of innocence turned foul. I once learned all of existence from your knowledge, gleaned myself raw trying to let you help me understand myself. We are not truly over because I am bound to you somehow even though I’ve used you for my own gain abused your trust and have my own heart slain. All I ask is for you to give me a chance to make it right again. And then I can move on to better things. And not be obsessed of what you think of me. And find a way to pull myself together.

Cybernetic Symphony
It started with existence just a lowly perspective of a mute time when I was able to make sense of this pressure make sense of why you are now here to guide me now on this looser journey; a lonely crabapple still grappling at shriveled skin creating a face that I still cannot distinguish. With the end of presence as we know it you have finished, rightly in my dressing room bright screen lit up but only for a moment do I dare look away. It started with you, and it will end with you Closed off from me, shortly your bioluminescence radiant, your perfection incomplete. I’ve known you for six straight years or was it five just enough construed construction, a bloated piece of mind that left me free to wander aimlessly down I path I cannot recognize. It was you who caused my blunder, keeping me awake every night with your brightness and distraction and amiable personality. I decorated you with bits of me, tangled in and out like woven webs of cybernetics optimal connections, you died twice and I revived you. But that was in the past and you still cling on, for how much longer I shan’t not know. Only that what it means to exist when I should be letting go. I have to face the trust of reality and its weakened points; that dangerous, well-formed world I find myself in. I hope you can follow me as long as you are able, my clunky plastic compadre your heart is metal mixed with other kinds of fragile contraptions. I know this end to my happiness is not your fault.

From the time we are born, we are flawed, both through nurture and through nature are we damaged, but there is something so beautiful, so fatalistic about that, and since we are inclined to failure, the only way we can travel is forward. Sometimes we move only a few steps at a time, and more often than not, we measure improvement by leaps and bounds, both are progress, both are important. We like to think we are rational, but statistically speaking, we trust in our instinct more often than not, even if it is beyond its depth, we are not rational creatures, striving for excess is not logical, for time is money, and survival is logical, but we want more, gathering approval is not efficient, in many respects animals are much more optimal. The thing that sets us apart, the most important thing to note, is love, love is not logical, love is not efficient, but we value it anyway, and so in the end, we are not what we think we are, we are not animals, we are illogical, we are inefficient, and we are healing, healing from the day we are born, born with a frail disposition, we are human, and we are slowly mending.

Convalescence
Even though my life was merely grazed By your beauty and grace I am thrown back and amazed At how it lingers and stays In the back of my mind Like my thoughts have embraced Every moment your face got my gaze So now even if you deem us impossible And call every obstacle optimal Or give me the title of optional You can't take my thoughts or memories Full of once upon a times and used to be's And all would freeze if your breeze Ever sang again through my trees Sweetest song to ever float on my leaves The fact that it was mutual Made it infinitely more beautiful But with the music dying I don't know how high We can keep flying Spare me the glance Just give me your hands And let us dance through the plants Because right now I don't plan on having any plans So let's not worry about forever Let's not worry about the weather My leaves in your wind Let us dance together

Wind in the Forest
the stars were flickering, the moon was dimming out, the sky was falling, and the earth was trembling at the pulpit of your existence. but it was just me and me alone feeling the earth collapse under the hypertension and the world spun on an axis, excluding me from it's original axis and i wonder if i gave you the rings so the earth can spin on your schedule. regardless, i want it back. i want back the reigns so this off course journey can finally settle into its regular habits. if i have to live under a god complex in order to verify that nobody will come close to breaking my spine the way you did, then so be it. i will forge a dystopian mark on myself and completely obliterate any memory of you from that dystopia. when the time comes, when i put my hands down and yours goes up in surrender, you will realize how human i am in the way i stretched myself out so much just to be your optimal choice. i will sit back down on my virtual throne, mend the craters in my chest, and leave you without your gas tank floating through space. i am not yours to control, to play with my puppeteer strings, to have me bottlenecked with these desperate pleas. i am a different person now, please understand this. - kra
