# *This coup A new nation Loyal dedication Its classification* ‘Species procreation’ Prevents us from facing A human cessation selective mutation Gestation Creation It may help explaining The reasons Behaving *But not the foundation Or actions We’re basing* A simplification is “continuation” A checkbox left vacant *Fulfillment We’re chasing* We sweat Eyes are gazing A slight palpitation In need of hydration Complete excitation Without hesitation Intense stimulation **Deep urges Heart racing** *Driven By sensations* **Unbounded fixation Pelvic Undulations Clothing Perforations Time no longer wasting** ***This capitulation a Sanctification ****** gyrations Hint of *********** The bedroom Safe haven For what we are craving *Once out and displaying* It all had been taken Before Feeling vacant Freed imagination A resuscitation Indulged depravation A rhythm we’re setting The giving and getting **Destroying the bedding** All else I’m forgetting Entwined with each other Like entangled netting *Both on the same trip In a unified heading* Now comes the summation A true Revelation Final culmination Smash all expectations ***Volcanic eruption*** That lasts the duration **Loud gasp We unlock** Filled with gratification #

Undulated Desires
I'm smarter than Most people i know, But i've been cursed With the ability to Feel. I have a multitude of thoughts Being triggered every second. Each with their own Unique emotion. I feel each one vividly, And with amazing depth Creating a storm in my head Impossible to ignore. My storm of emotions Grows so strong, It prevents the simultaneous thoughts From being articulated Or understood. I can confuse myself, And break my own heart Because of the complexity Of my mind. An astounding talent, really. My dad says I'm smart, Too smart for my own good. And he's probably right. What good is a brain, When your heart makes all the decisions?

Smarty Pants
I bite my lips, to build a fortified dam, that prevents my true feelings, from flowing forth, like a catastrophic flood and drowning you. But my cheeks betray me, and as a forest fire, a deep blush blazes across my features, reducing all my defenses, by allowing you too see, exactly how you affect me.

Flood and Fire
Anxiety is not cute, and it is not fun Anxiety is not something to make light of and to pretend you have for giggles Anxiety is suffering Anxiety is waking up at 3 in the morning because I am so sick to my stomach that it wakes me up for an hour Anxiety is my skin breaking out in hives so severe that I break the skin and bruise and bleed because I am scratching so **** hard Anxiety is when I try to sleep at midnight but am still awake at 5:30 in the morning and I still try to count down to the second exactly how much sleep I will get tonight Anxiety is when I cannot bring myself to eat even though it has been 31 hours since my last meal Anxiety is waking up in the middle of slumber because I thought of what I should have said in an argument four days prior Anxiety is how it is noon and I cannot bring myself to get out of bed and make my day real Anxiety is how I have made myself feel like I am going insane and I feel like my breaths are short and nothing feels right Anxiety is how things do not go the exact way I planned them to and I sit there contemplating crying for the whole day Anxiety is how I feel myself acting like I am crazy and I feel that I am not me and yet I cannot change the way I react Stop trying to make anxiety cute It is not romantic It is not adorable It is not fun Anxiety is what prevents me from living a normal life Anxiety is what drives me out of my mind

I Am Anxious
You can never, Forgive and forget, For you remember close. To your heart, The hurt you feel, The pain you endure, The regret you carry. Forgiveness, Doesn't excuse their behavior, Or you don't deny, That people make mistakes, Rather, Forgiveness, Prevents you, From destroying you heart.

Forgiveness
I’ll split the hairs, I’ll split an atom And never leave the bedroom. I most identify with December, Not because of the crushing temperature But the lack of cosmic dawdling Is no more mesmerizing than a frozen phoenix. And as she arrives by train from Phoenix, I study who she appears to be, the atoms Composing her auburn hair with dawdling Authenticity shout “Take me to the bedroom!” While the wedge of geese in this temperature Head to the Southern Hemisphere’s December. The common chill of this morning in December Prevents us from rising from out the covers like a phoenix, And our blankets like ash defend us from the temperature That stills the vibrations of the atmosphere’s atoms. I curse the insulated walls of the bedroom, Trapping in heat and discouraging our dawdling. A rafter of turkeys outside my window are dawdling, Printing their runes on the documents of December Between the thickets surrounding the bedroom While the sun, golden like the plumage of a phoenix, Awakens in my bones every dormant atom, Instilling in me courage to brave the temperature. I follow her, dressed, from the bedroom And her footsteps serve to punctuate the temperature Like the smoldering beak of a phoenix Too busy being risen for dawdling. She leaves, by train through the chill of December, Me daydreaming of fission. The splitting of an atom. I’ll split an atom daily, safely within the bedroom And sleep through December’s pitiless, hollow temperature, Waking only for dawdling until Spring is a phoenix.

In the short story, "The Rocking-Horse Winner" written by D.H. Lawrence, the young boy, Paul, associates luck with wealth and bets large amounts of money on the soon-to-be winning horses. His family is extremely wealthy but can barely afford to keep up to their title. What is one thing that society does not know yet the children do about the mother? They know that their mother does not love her own children. She gives them everything they need and want except for one thing. And that one thing they do need is love. One knows love by the look in their eyes. It is much more difficult to lie with eyes than with words and actions. She is materialistic and adores money and extravagance. I think we all agree that the mother is oblivious to her situation. How are we not like the mother? The truth is, we are exactly like the mother. She doesn't realize that love is not a number, money or products but that love is looking into one's eyes and showing true affection. We are in complete illusion that wealth leads to happiness. We think the same thoughts when the more we have, the more successful we may be however in reality, it is false. A perfect example is Black Friday. Companies, businesses and customers all decided to cut the Thanksgiving holiday to purchase more "stuff" to make them "happy". They decided to cut the time to spend with family, friends and relatives to spend for themselves and others. Who is the villain in the story? Most believe villains are a something or a someone who prevents the "good guy" from achieving their goal, also known as an antagonist, however the villain in this story cannot be seen, touched, smelled or even tasted. It can only be spoken and heard of. It is an imaginative villain. It is merely the manipulation of the mind of the misconception that luck is associated with wealth. This begins the entire issue with obsession and materialism. I'm sure we all agree that luck is something that happens to you without you possibly deserving or expecting it. But what is luck when others are given it? For example, if a random stranger gives your friend $100, another $1,000, but gave you only $20. Would you still feel lucky? Well, in all honesty it all depends on our circumstances, which then determine our values. Shouldn't it be reversed where our values determine our circumstances? In the end, over the many years of bets and deference, Paul has been riding his rocking horse to find the true winner and to find luck.

What has become of us Amidst the hustle and bustle of city life When did evolution condone us to regress into a state Of uncalculated caucus As we meander our way through the rapids of life Rapid Is hardly a best-fit descriptor For we are past the point of speed We mill around like headless horses Buzzing bees Stinging roaches Fallen leaves Roaring lions Try to lead But fail Like cottons fighting breeze Is this all we are? Is this what we were made for? To quickly climb the climb And await the graceless fall Parachutes prepared for praise But our pride prevents and prevails Till the day I climb the ladder Shall I not attempt to see What the view at the top might be like I fear it enthralls me But then reality strikes like a maddening blaze And suddenly I see That I'm well on my way up the hill As I swing from bridge to bridge Is this the way to live? Uncautious steps with kleptomaniac ease As we take what we desire From our capitalistic divider Though we hate to be the same Not at all do we differ Are we not all blinded mice With a tetra-human vice Spiders apt at spinning lies Banking life on Friday highs All around me boring beasts Lost to whims, to say the least What I fear most is the day I give in and join the race Is the day I eat my heart out Just to enjoy the highest gaze Till then here trapped in the zoo Enclosure encasing truth Finding fault with every human till the day I conform too

Yet to be born from womb Society doth define our tomb Birth be not our choice Cry of a baby a defiance voice A child to adult we grow Shackles of society dulls our glow Unknown path feared to take Lost our dreams in society's wake Compared to others in life A rat race causing hearts strife Abused are the weak Blamed by natures freak A neighbour better envied An innocent in vanity deceived Shackes cast by society's die Hearts loving tears doth dry Live to be just live to care Shackles of society abhors to care Begs he for food begs he for a life Hated he for tis be his life None to help none to care Shackles of society prevents to share The need of tomorrow today sought Society's standards pains bought A child to adult we grow Seeking societies conformity to glow The failed looked below The winners looked above Scandals and gossip talk of the town To the different ,society a mocking clown Break free oh heart that rage Let not thy passion held in cage For long held by shackles as sage Time to live thy dream written page Break free with love not hate Fear not to change thy fate Them that laugh at thee may be Jealous as they can't be thee Shackles society doth hold To the weak in vanity sold Happiness and true heart it doth not hold Break free thy story ever be told

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

O Christ—Thou rarest flower of hearts—Thou didst sail on the storm-tossed lake of prejudiced minds. Its evil-scented, gloomy thought-waves lashed Thy lily-tender soul. They crucified Thee with their evil. Yet Thou didst shed the aroma of goodness and forgiveness, and didst help them to be purified by remorse, so helping them to become attractively sweet-scented with Thine all-loving Flower-Soul. O Thou Great Lover of error-torn brothers—an unseen monument of the mightiest miracle of love was established in each heart when the magic wand of Thy voice uttered: "Forgive them, for they know not what they do." Thou hast healed the cataract of hatred, and now we have grown to see: "Love thine enemies as thyself, for they are thy brothers—though sick and sleeping." Thou hast taught us not to increase their delirious kicks of hatred by battering them with the bludgeons of revenge. Thine undying sympathy hath inspired us to heal and wake our brothers, suffering from the delirium of anger, by the soothing salve of our forgiveness. Thy crucifixion reminds us of the daily crucifixion of our fortitude by trials, of our wisdom by ignorance, of our self-control by the scathing hands of temptation, and of our love by misunderstanding. Thy test on the cross proved the victory of Thy wisdom over ignorance, of Thy soul over flesh, of Thy happiness over pain, and of Thy love over hatred. So are we heartened to bear our crosses bravely and pleasantly. Teach us to pour out sweetness when crucified by harshness, to bear with calmness the assault of worries, and to give understanding unceasingly to those who unjustly hate us. O Shepherd of Souls, wandering hearts are of themselves seeking the one fold of divine devotion. We have heard the ever-calling music of Thine infinite kindness. Our one desire is to be at home with Thee, to receive the Cosmic Father with joyous, open eyes of wisdom, and to know that we are all sons of our own One God. Teach us to conquer the Satan of dividing selfishness, which prevents the gathering of all brother-souls into the one fold of Spirit. Calling to one another by the watchword: "Love him who loves you, and love all who love you not," let us rally beneath the canopy of the universal sense of Christ-Oneness. Amen. Whispers from Eternity A Book of Answered Prayers 1949 Edition

I watched the water rise. Creeping down the muddy street. As if a divine force was attempting a stealthy act of insurrection. I didn't have the heart to fight it. Had I only known. I watched Hell's Half Acre silently succumb to the whimsical (however so pleasantly devastating) path of Gaea. Through this empowering incident I felt redemption like I never had before. I jumped down from the platform of the livestock pen to personally welcome the satisfying force of nature's purification. The water lashed out and grabbed my leg. At that moment my jubilate spirit spoiled to uncontaminated terror. It was not a redemptive Spirit winding its way through the rail tracks but the serpent Lucifer. Had I only known. And so in the West Bottoms Tavern I found myself under the ***** shoe of The Machine. A wayward phantom rising from our precarious Kansas River. It drifts through the sweet Midwest like the coal black locomotive smoke that paints a suffocating thick haze above the Stockyards. A welcome slate of provision. A shelter covering us from the racial tension and poverty smothering the outside world. To those in the Bottoms with unruly desires, a saviour. To those at City Hall with loose morals, the messiah. And it was at 1908, I nervously pulled the covers over my vulnerable body and sealed Satan's foul kiss with a diabolical red scrawl. We skipped hand in hand through the freshly paved streets of our "wide open" town. I always tried my best to look the other way but I knew full well that I travelled with a gang of thieves. Nonetheless, everyone votes in our town. A brutal party whip keeps the Jackson County Democrats in line and "Charlie the *** prevents any Rabbits from multiplying. But I've been working from within the belly of a "whale" for years and I fear we've now run out of ocean. Our arranged marriage has robbed my capacity for faithful navigation. I'm seeking a radical divorce from The Beast, the cost has become inconsequential to me. So I found genuine redemption. Finally. I closed the driver side door to my sedan and walked out to the edge of the bridge. The water below seemed whimsical (and so pleasantly devastating) in nature, much the same as it had 36 years ago. I pinned this note to the window, and with a Ready-Mixed Concrete block tied around my waist I watched the water rise.

Totally out of it, don’t even know which flip-flops I put on, what day is it? what time is it? it's sunset. And I already want to write another poem, But I won’t write another sunset poem, at least not yet. There’s breakfast to fix, there's a pool to swim, it's magnificent, this twisted life I'm in, so before we break bread, let’s pray, “Good morning Beautiful world, what a wonderful day to give thanks!” ∆ Aaron La Lux ∆ Volume 1 The H Trilogy I just published a new book. If you could take a moment to check it out, and even write a review it'd be most appreciated. All profits go to a charity that prevents child abuse and ****** assault. So not only are you getting an epic book of poetry, but you're also supporting a good cause. Thank you SO much! ∆ https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01I4621OE

There is something about being numb that is addicting It is, sometimes, the only real way to not feel the pain There is numbing medicine that we have all heard of Anaesthesia, which means 'loss of sensation' It is used to induce sleep, which prevents pain and discomfort We have no problem with people using this to numb Alcohol is my anaesthesia It numbs my body, it numbs my mind It pulls me into another time zone where the hands on the clock move faster But everything else around you moves slower All you can do is focus on the next drink coming Rather than the pain being inflicted on you that made you go out in the first place We all are addicted to numbing Some sleep, some get drunk, some get high, We all cannot deny the sweet flavor of feeling nothing The needle piercing your skin but only feeling the cold, not the sting The liquor scratching itself down your throat but loving the burn Igniting a wild fire in your mouth, going down a slope rubbed with gasoline Numbness is an obsession There's something so beautiful in the art of forgetting things Even if it only be for a few hours Alcohol dehydrates you, leaving you dizzy with a mind like a static TV I would rather feel empty from alcohol Than empty in the bed that we used to sleep in together I would rather be numb in a bed next to a boy that I do not know Rather than feeling all the glass I've stepped on walking away from you pressing into my skin while lying in bed alone

Numbness
Lately my mind has been in one place beyond the stars, I try to connect the dots but they just leave trails of false happiness tainted in scars. I’ve been lost and consumed with unimaginable distraught built up in me Went from writing poetry on a daily to not at all due to the animosity I blinded myself to see. I look in the mirror and see someone I don’t recognize, From all the lessons learnt I still fantasize how life would be without uncomforting cries. I believe that life without the setbacks prevents you from appreciating the triumphs, But what happens to the pieces of you that stayed shattered while life was your worst enemy? To battle with life is to drag yourself across the finish line after every milestone Bruises, blood, sweat, tears become a cushion to your self-destruction and you lost your way from home. They name hurricanes after people because we are a cluster of emotions burning inside, we set fire to our own rain, We add fuel to our own fire because we rather suffer than to gain, We become our own enemy and barricade ourselves from outside pain but lock ourselves in and become insane. Insanity becomes our best friend. We persuade ourselves to get better but rather give another person a helping hand, We give advice because genuinely that’s what we want to hear but we run into loops and bury our security in the sand. Looking beyond the stars trying to connect the dots of the chaos but the galaxy lye in me, the fire lye in me, the hurricane lye in me the mediocrity lye in me, Blatantly to say, The only person that can save me, is… me. -dpk

I need to say that sleeping is... hard to achieve when your goals are set high, and yet something prevents me to convey just how difficult rest is to apply to your day to day life trying to get by Every year around this time I get weird without knowing why... Leaves start to fall and my body starts shutting down in depression that won't let me live my life happily without dodging the darts, here's my vain confession, I'm scrolling through a lie, reading stupid people's denials... just an advice: don't let them tell you that you don't suffice... you **** well know what you have to do, just shut them up with a smile that says "I hate you too" ;)

Life is a ferris wheel
Go where the road untangles and unfurls by those cliff side views over those blue curls lit only by those high beams off those white pearls. Only sense of direction is the road ahead no going back just only forwards instead as going prevents drifting to the sea bed. The white sea foam crashes amongst the shore those high beams persist only for Salvadore the light bends around the corner then no more.

High Beam Daydream
And me i wait down the weight, of the past by leaving my plate, Untouched. Instead i devour the self hate, And compensate for the thoughts in my head. By pacing along a path, that'll only lead to my death bed. But me, I already died inside, Many years ago. And my heart it may slow, But it does not show my ability to swallow Mouthfuls of regret at time. And me, I combine, Thought and feelings, With actions, I have no sense of attraction, When i stare at my reflection That screams rejection, And i pull out a fraction of the person i used to be. Because me I am 100 pounds too heavy, 80 pounds to heavy, Every single pound too heavy. And this weight loss is steady, And these burdens i carry, With this thinking that refracts me Prevents me the ability, To see any positive trait, or quality, I drown in a sea, Of unforgivable mistakes, I break, crack, smash Into a thousand pieces. And you, You try to iron out the creases, With therapy and weight gain, And to you, I am a piece of paper with a name, And my tiny frame encompasses Years of self blame, Disdain. And me, I slip through the cracks in the earth, As i claw and clasp for an inch of Self worth. I try to ride and surf This tide, But the feelings inside, The thoughts in my mind, Do not allow me to find Acceptance anywhere. And me i exhale rotten air, As i stare at my past, And i try not to feel, But this pain is so real, So me, i skip a meal And refuse the next, I filter through the net, Stomach regret, And maybe one day yet, Ill be ready for freedom, Excited and apprehensive about the person, I have the potential to become. But for now, My meal is undone. And me, I run in fear, There is no life here, No beauty near. And the sheer idea, That maybe, Just maybe A number shouldn't dictate my self worth. Shouldn't cause me to hurt, myself That i am worth more, The idea of closing the door, Too much to bare. So in silence I'll stare, I'll restrict and starve, And lose my hair, And don't tell me I don't care, Because it'd be impossible For me to care any more, But can't you see There's a fire inside of me And Im burning at the core. And i guess that makes me a coward, a quitter, But i can't see anyway fitter, And it tastes so bitter Chewing on the past, And the taste it lingers And fills up my glass. But until you've walked in my ever shrinking shoes, Do not judge me, Or the choices i chose, Do not question the freedom i lose, This body i abuse. Do not remind me Of the sanity i could find For you have no clue Of the hurricanes That run wild within my mind.

Crab mentality, sometimes referred to as ***** in a barrel, is a way of thinking best described by the phrase, "if I can't have it, neither can you."[1] The metaphor refers to a bucket or barrel of ***** Individually, the ***** could easily escape from the bucket, but instead they grab at each other in a useless "king of the hill" competition which prevents any from escaping and ensures their collective demise.The analogy in human behavior is claimed to be that members of a group will attempt to negate or diminish the importance of any member who achieves success beyond the others, out of envy, spite, conspiracy, or competitive feelings, to halt their progress.

Crab mentality
she is fine as hell, doesn't even own a car, still she's ready to go and I'm ready to roll, so let's go drive our hearts into tomorrow, her skin glows more than 24k gold, use me please babe I can be borrowed, just please leave the ego, check your ego at the door, of perception no deception, only reflections reflecting us more, cardinals and directions, robins and gremlins, goblins and demons, land mimes and sea men, see man she can get any man, because her skin is pure adrenaline, she’s the disease she’s the medicine, she's dark like African and light like Edison, high in the Hollywood Hills, swimmin’ in infinity pools, intent on intent, and also indecisive in a sense, in any event at every event, she shines more than any lame in a designer dress, because she looks better no matter whatever the attire, no makeup and sweatpants she's still the best dressed... The H Trilogy I just published a new book. If you could take a moment to check it out, and even write a review it'd be most appreciated. All profits go to a charity that prevents ****** assault against children. So not only are you getting an epic book of poetry, but you're also supporting a good cause. Thank you SO much ∆ Here are the links for my new book: www.amazon.com/dp/B01I4621OE www.createspace.com/6393238

Muslims are not to date. But you've seen him kissing Kate. Zayd, Khalid, Luqman don't care that ALLAH tells us to wait. They flash their sinful pictures straight. Without shame, a number of my brothers show children watching how to fake mate. Selfish, self-centered, I do what I want to do is happening at a fast rate. Most of them who date know ALLAH regards their actions with hate. Persistence to do wrong, to fake date Kate, prevents them from moving in a direction that is straight. Maybe their children, ones they were never told about would have entered the world as ******** late. Maybe their done away with babies would have exited the world as ALLAH'S slaves who used Islamic knowledge as bait. Before marriage it is said, I love you, You're hot; Kate steals these phrases from the role of a wife and uses them to increase her heart rate. They share a bed and have *** but what they want not to know is that they fornicate. A load of grave sins they accrue and a heavy punishment from ALLAH if they do not feel guilty, if they do not repent, if they do not end what they perpetuate. Many practicing Muslim maids want not to marry them. Little do those who fake date Kate know that their actions likely got in the way of GOD'S good fate. That their use and abuse of ALLAH'S fashioned female and a Father's beloved daughter, violates her like how a dog with his razor-sharp teeth on her arm viciously ate. He and Kate with memories to relive the sores and bruises, the trauma and incidents of disobedience which cut off grace from ALLAH, The Great. You're going to make wait late. You're going to fake date Kate.
