I'm a relationship engineer Building engines to persevere Through the loneliness I fear That makes me panic And seek out a mechanic That tinkers With my blinkers But doesn't fix a thing When I'm left with a sting From what's defined as a fling My pistons pumping The way I'm ******* When I find a rocket scientist That formulates the highest bliss In his carefully calculated kiss But I start to viciously ***** When our problems are subatomic Because every decision Creates nuclear fission Which causes decay And explosions of energy His thoughts he relays He sees me as the enemy So I find a Christian To pump my pistons He has the morals of God Which I figure can't be flawed Though they may seem odd But he doesn't love me He feels he's above me He acts like a martyr Which makes me fall harder But I'm left alone on the cross He has forsaken me He thinks I'm made of frost He has mistaken me I feel alone In the brimstone Of his dial tone I found loneliness In their phoniness My engine needs trust Otherwise it develops rust But when everyone tries to act cool Pain becomes my alternative fuel Love once seemed like a jewel Until my blood made a pool I tried to get repairs To find that nobody cares I learned that science Was of no reliance And the pious life Brought riot strife So I find nowhere to turn While my engine burns

Engineer
Attracted to the broken Like myself I yearn to be fixed To make amends To feel once again To wake up to my favorite person at my side It’s not in the cards for me And it wasn’t for you So broken No matter the repairs I’ll never feel like new Find me in a thrift store Along with the other gems Marked down due to being used

“T'was the night before Christmas ...” and Santa was busy. The reindeer were antsy the elves in a tizzy. The missus was tending the ovens like mad And turning out cookies to make children glad. The wood chips were flying the sawdust was thick The workshop was bulging with toys from St. Nick. Contractors from Sega, Nintendo and Sony Were working on games (and a robotic pony). Iphones and Ipads (with virus removal) Were packed in their boxes and stamped "Elf Approval". Last minute touches were added with flair While elf stylists tended to Santa's white hair. Elf tailors were making some last alterations To Santa's red coat and his waist tribulations. The weather was fair as the weather-elf stated The routes were approved and departure was slated. Bells had been polished and harnesses buffed While repairs were addressed for the hoofs that were scuffed. The antlers were festooned with ribbons and bells And the reindeer were covered with elf flying spells. The clock approached midnight as Santa was seated. The countdown began as the flight crew was greeted. H-hour neared and the tension was growing. Outside it grew cloudy and then, began snowing. But Santa just grinned as the weather-elf winced. "Don't worry, my friend.   Our time has commenced." For the weather was nothing to Santa's conveyance. His reindeer and sleigh were immune to"delay-ance". With a whirl of his whiskers and a flick of his wrist The reindeer were launched in a flash of white mist. And I heard him exclaim through his teleport ray: "ALERT TSA. Tell 'em I'm on my WAY!"

Positive positivity ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Positive positivity Oh having experience of negativity So you lift yourself into positivity In moving ‘tis the only way to go The road into positivity,straight and true In marking out the presence quality Virtually confident in everything I do Especially in a poetic way of life. Positive positivity Oh no ! Is a word I never wish to use. Simple positive thoughts, repairs all If you’re feeling down , think positive. Think how, and thank your lucky stars I had in equal measure , good and bad Very soon I forget the bad it fails to exist. In a wink of an eye, I’m wholly positive The luckiest man alive because of love. Your Love, darling , keeps me positive. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Written by Philip November 23rd. 2018

Cleanliness and ****** The ship was old once it had been a big ship now it was small it had been overtaking by time, its shower system had sea water which was nice enough to cool off when it was hot. After having a shower, you needed a bucket of fresh water to rinse the salt away if not you would scratch all night have irritated skin For month we did not have a proper wash when our ship docked in Bremerhaven for repairs and we got fresh water found I had an extra pair of socks I didn’t know about it was wonderful having a hot shower I stayed under it til someone complained I was using all the warm water, even today the sense of cleanliness makes me shudder with delight. Whatever I had done in my youth the night before it helped to have a shower and wash the sin away the smell of “life buoy.” the only soap we knew about, made the difference the ****** loved it they knew you were clean ******

cleanliness and ******
Far back in the ages, The plough with wreaths was crowned; The hands of kings and sages Entwined the chaplet round; Till men of spoil disdained the toil By which the world was nourished, And dews of blood enriched the soil Where green their laurels flourished: --Now the world her fault repairs-- The guilt that stains her story; And weeps her crimes amid the cares That formed her earliest glory. The proud throne shall crumble, The diadem shall wane, The tribes of earth shall humble The pride of those who reign; And War shall lay his pomp away;-- The fame that heroes cherish, The glory earned in deadly fray Shall fade, decay, and perish. Honour waits, o'er all the Earth, Through endless generations, The art that calls her harvests forth, And feeds the expectant nations.

Ode For An Agricultural Celebration
You Sir, Are An Electrician! **technocrat — noun a proponent, adherent, or supporter of technocracy.** This city boy was expert at Turning the lights on, Unlocking the front door, Putting new batteries in flashlights, And calling the handyman to "Please come upstairs" When the degree of diving difficulty was a Positive number. Also, Freezing the semi-permanently the DVR, Triggering alarms, Killing car batteries, Making laptops question Human sanity, Tearing up when reading, "Some Assembly Required!" Raised in a city of experts, He was unskilled in things electric, Becoming apoplectic, When a device had an On/off switch that ignored him. Somewhat famous he was, For engaging the inanimate, In a verbal dialectic, Which included words highly phonetic, But unsuitable for children's ears. She was raised in rural pastures, Corn fields used for hide n' go seek, Riding goats after school Just for fun, Familiar with innards of Deus ex machina, a/k/a Minor engine repairs, and Doing what he called, Making reparations. IOS7, heaven. Cabling laptop to external devices, Icing on the cake, Dis and reassembling a German coffee maker, Did not require calling an 800 number. She never read an instruction sheet Without pleasurable laughing at Japanese English. He was unashamed of his skilled Unskilled characteristics, For such is the way of the world In the human kingdom, Some of us two handed, some of us, bi-standers. But upon occasion, He would bemoan his fate, Decry his inability to survive On a post-apocalyptic Earth, Like the people on tv and movies. Periodically he would grow morose, Listless, at his inability to adapt to a Point Oh world. Uncomprehending Icons and symbols whose meaning Were wholly unintuitive, He secretly ashamed of his need for technological ****** She would sense his frustration, Wipe away his inner condensation, Climbing into his lap, Whispering the following: **You sir, are an electrician of words, a verbal technocrat,** Plumber of the depths where Few fear to tread, explorer of the head, Restorer of human paintings unmatched, Without your ilk, this world would be unbearable, Your heart's warming silk Comforts bodies and souls, Speaking from experience personal. Then, she flicked his On/Off switch, On.

360 Death sets a Thing significant The Eye had hurried by Except a perished Creature Entreat us tenderly To ponder little Workmanships In Crayon, or in Wool, With “This was last Her fingers did”— Industrious until— The Thimble weighed too heavy— The stitches stopped—by themselves— And then ’twas put among the Dust Upon the Closet shelves— A Book I have—a friend gave— Whose Pencil—here and there— Had notched the place that pleased Him— At Rest—His fingers are— Now—when I read—I read not— For interrupting Tears— Obliterate the Etchings Too Costly for Repairs.

Death sets a Thing significant
T'was just before Christmas and I went down to the garage To have my old car looked at by a fellow known as  "Sarge" He said I need tires and my wipers weren't so hot My hoses all were leaking and my muffler was shot The repairs just kept on coming and I saw a sparkle in his eyes He was counting all my money, he was the devil in disguise I told him "Thanks, but I would go and get another look" Before I signed for his repair list and I was on the hook So I went on to my friend's place to see what he could do We've been friends for nearly 30 years...since 1982. His mechanic took it out back and while he had it on the hoist I saw a woman at the counter, looking rather moist She said my car is leaking there's  a hole that must be filled I thought that if Rob had a coffee, it'd most certainly be spilled A girl came in and she told Rob her boyfriend had loose nuts And whenever he was driving her, they slid into the ruts Rob stepped back, grinned a bit as he was looking down her front And from where I stood behind her I could almost see her Donation to the Angel tree that was standing in the corner A door opened, a breeze blew in, and there was no time to warn her Her skirt blew up, exposing  her tattoo of some sprigs of holly And Rob came round and covered her just like Sir Walter Raleigh I'm sorry miss, for I did look when your skirt was lifted And I must say, you made my night, for my drive shaft has shifted And then a man came through the door and said "My name is Nick" "I've problems with my reindeer and I need them seen to quick" Rob said "we work on cars here sir , I can fix tires or a hose" "It's nothing major son, I need a bulb for Rudolph's nose" "It doesn't stay on like it should and the other deer get frantic" "And I can't risk it going out when I'm over the Atlantic" "So, if you would replace it now with something nice and bright" "I'd pay you well for all your time and for aiding in my plight" Rob stepped up, fixed Rudolph's nose and said "This one's on me" "And for all work done in my shop you get a guarantee" We all stood round as Santa left, for we new that  it was him For he left us each a candy cane in a metal alloy rim And as we watched him fly away, I'm sure we heard him yell "There's mistletoe tattooed on her too, but...where I'll never tell!"

The Doctor has a Sense of Humor! <|> give a surgeon a scalpel and an excuse, and the artist emerges, for creativity is a good surgeon’s natural habitat Sure, sure, there’s a plan, with best and acceptable outcomes, but when messing with a real heart, a sly ***** with numerous deceptive guises at its disposal, you never for sure never know, despite all the advanced imaging techniques, exactly what you will find once you go spelunking in caves of life and death so, he takes a bit from here, and a bob or two from there, there a cut, here an incision deep, Old McDonald provided a body, or a canvas, and the Doc is happy. So I uncover holes where he probed, redeploying the healthy, like a good designer, Doc rearranges and repairs, a travelogue of splicing and dicing, his handiwork Now standing over you for many hours, can get tiring, though each ***** be different, unique even, but leaving a little marker, a stylized signature, is well, is the rightful discretion of the artiste! So you can imagine my surprise when the tubes removed (ouch!) the bandages ripped off in a signature move of a delighted nurse whose loves seeing grown men cry from lesser trivialities, you cannot imagine my surprise when I discovered my new tattoo, upon my chest front and center! *Herein please find your heart repaired, and revitalized: Please Note! We guarantee our work for minimum 15 years (Aug. 3, 2038), but our disclaimer we assume NO  responsibility after that if you should happen to live for 30 YEARS or more* Dr. P.

I am perching I am searching Sitting still My mind filled With the vigilance Of a militant Looking to invade By throwing grenades And committing atrocities At a high velocity Yet I'm made to lay and wait My love feels like hate Stuck in this crate It's getting late My feral fate Makes me shake Like the love intake That makes me break When you're raising the stakes I see your fin in the water Moving in for the slaughter Acting like a shark You go dark Like a silent submarine You float near the bottom Your gun is submachine That's how you caught them Now it's my turn For a bullet burn Treat me like a ***** distractor You're a fractured compactor Leaving me partially intact But most of me I lack After your attack I should thank you for taking out the trash But I could've done without the clash Because now I'm just a pile of ash Stuck in a bird cage At an increased age If I become a phoenix and rise It'll be an imprisoned surprise I thought I had prepared Yet now I need repairs When it's my love I share And it's casually broken To be used as a token You must be joking There's no way I could've ever prepared For the fact that no one ever cared

Prepared
Down by the lake, in the cottage made of stone The porch is taken over by all the flowers grown. The walkway needs weeded, and the chimney needs repairs There are holes in the wood that we used to build the stairs. The windows are fogged over from the dust in the air Underneath the shade tree sits my worn out rocking chair. Inside is full of cob webs, and smells of filthy must The kitchen sink is tarnished, and covered in rust. The bathrooms are molded from the absence of use The wooden floors are covered with a thin coat of dew. From the lack of attention and tender loving care The beauty of the cottage has vanished in thin air. If the time were taken to show how much we cared The beauty of the cottage, and the warmth would still be there. Over time it faded, the need of caring hands Now down by the lake, the lonely cottage stands.

Lonely Cottage
Late April and only coltsfoot—Tussilago farfara—breaking leaf litter. Our daffodils, peonies and crocuses are also making signs. April is the cruelest month, I forget why. A sweet slow Spring no sudden changes each leg and leaf unfolds deliberately. You can't miss it. New York City's spring rushes like a yellow cab into summer. One day leaves are wet, next they’re leather. I prefer this slow dance, birds mating on the sky, peepers evolving into frogs. Repairs take weeks or months. Septic, garage door, cracked windshield, clean windows, build bridge, buy land, rake leaves off erosion control, cut wood, prune lilac, paint lawn chairs. More carefully inspect, identify, the insect of the week, a fly with an ant’s body that skirts the grass and falls in drinks. Look more closely! It will be gone in a few days! Then it will be the time of moths or fireflies, mosquitoes and wasps. Mud road, red-winged blackbird. The slashing stream topples old trees. My legs hurt.

You were smiling in my heart today quiet eyes spilling hints of your light the footsteps you took left white jewels as snowdrops arose with your passing your soft calm soothed my fears all things comes to pass and time cures all the brush of your hand brings hope and new life makes spirits soar repairs the hurt your face will ever be beyond my touch like the hares that dance at your feet joyful as you herald the coming spring

Quiet Woman in the Woods
From deep under the surface Something stirs The people of this city Experienced a tragedy A horror so traumatizing The city walls and store blocks Are scarred, both inside and out Bullet holes and burnt buildings Cemeteries filled with graves Tombs of those who died When the wrath rushed through But still it lives on, The city filled with natives and tourists alike People sell, people buy People remember but still people die It is now a historic monument But slowly the city repairs Revealing only a faint scab Fixed by reality People say they will always remember But how long 'til the scab is gone? Lost, inside the flesh

Mostar- A Poem for Bosnia (2007)
There it was in the middle of nowhere All grown up with wisteria vines In the summer when the wisteria would bloom It looked like a beautiful fairytale Daffodils once grew beside the concrete porch And azalea bushes too Forsythia grew near the concrete walkway It's yellow blooms I used to pick In bouquets for my Mom in springtime Two or three bushes bearing white flowers Once grew beside the house too Inside it looked Victorian Even though it was built In the 1940s or 1950s How surreal and dreamlike It did look inside and out Even though when I saw it It looked like repairs were a necessity The floors needed to be torn down and replaced The house was in dire need of electricity And in want of being cleaned and organized Bags of trash and other things Needed to be sorted through The house needed a new roof and ceiling The ceiling and roof were falling through Some of the floors were collapsing Or they would crumble if you tried to put Even one of your feet on one of the brittle floors Yet that was my favorite home of all And I miss you since you were torn down Just last summer It seems longer or shorter in some ways In other ways it doesn't Even though I never lived even a day Inside of your comfortable hominess My Mother and her sisters and parents did My Dad courted her inside those very walls Which were torn down just last summer I wished I could have lived inside those walls Replaced only what needed to be replaced Keeping as much of you as I could But you were destroyed And I never had a chance *Oh, how I miss you, Dear little rustic country house Which was like a home And felt like home inside* ~Marian~

Dear Harry, I see you're doing well these days. One year later and I still watch as you grin and laugh with your friends. Sometimes I just grin as well knowing the truth behind the plastic you call a smile. You once told me that you feel like you don’t belong. You get a burning in your chest thinking of how awful humanity is and how you wish you were a robot so your brain would match your body. But when I told you from the anxious walls of my heart that I sort of feel the same but I'm not making a metaphor, I'm transgender You said that I didn't feel it as intensely as you did so my identity wasn't that important. I suppose I can tell you now that you became the reason why I agree with you about humanity. Your face sickens me. Sort of funny how everyone calls you Harry Potter because of a scar shaped like a lightning bolt on your cheek and it was a big joke and I always laughed because what a coincidence even though I never read the books or watched the movies and now because of you: I never will want to. I don’t know if you realise that you’ve shattered me. Shattered me like the board you can cut in half thanks to years of karate and your hand crafted swords are part of the reason I never crossed you because if I just change myself hard enough maybe you would stop saying you could use them on me if I kept talking about how much I love everything if everything isn’t you. Sometimes I would wonder if you could hear my knees fighting not to snap in half. I would wonder if you knew that you are like a hurricane; strong and unpredictable. And like a hurricane, you came storming and when your thunder rumbled and rain paraded all over me it left nothing untouched. I could say you're a forest fire but that would make it hot and quick and emotionless. No, you are a hurricane because hurricanes are wet and windy and raw and wild and it left me drowning. Unlike a hurricane, your damage can not be fixed with teamwork and donations from those that feel sympathy. The damage you’ve done is permanent and even with all the repairs I’ve made in the form of therapy sessions and promises that I shall overcome, I. I am still in ruins. You are bitter but not sweet. But for 17 torturous months I only saw it the other way around.   Reaching out to try to catch onto something worth fighting for But this isn’t worth fighting for Because my hands hurt from writing I’m sorrys. Because my brain hurts from pushing out reasons you’re not worth it. Because my soul hurts from fighting the back of my mind that still loves you. You have rendered me obsolete.

# You are in there,  I am certain of it-- Behind the gear's finely-honed, precision fit  gear.. in to gear in to gear into gear.. And I wonder..  do you want out? The machine  on the outside, self-repairs Any attempt towards dismantle  from the external,  is futile.. But the internal,  beautiful girl.. "I don't know what you mean, about 'machine'" She is apprehensive, those beautiful brown eyes,  looking up at me.. "Look down, sweet girl" Her thighs, fully parted,  as I slide in to her.. those amazing hips, moving so perfectly with mine,  extracting.. Milking from me, my warm  pulsing ***** a deeply-penetrating lubricant,  pulsed deeply into the machine As if to lubricate its gears.. As if.. But penetrating so deeply, as to now permeate the insides  of the mechanization's innerworkings-- turning from lubricant, to that of a corrosive nature.. Fully coating now, the inner you.. as it turns back now, into that of a healing balm Bringing to you  a moment of Light     and internal clarity--   long enough for you to see     That the machine  is made vulnerable     by the ever-changing qualities  of     Love that found its way through     As the awakened parts within you, for the     first time.. understand the machine's love-blocking,  nature And you begin to choose, mid-orgasm the machine's dismantle,  from the inside-- *'Little by little.. Line, upon line.. Block, upon block.. Precept, upon precept..'* Until we have the chance,  once again.. to do it all again #

Your arms were home, your love - the fortress I dared not wander from. I was safe and you were happy, until the walls came crashing down. A thousand breaks and then some, in the foundation we thought was indestructible. I suppose that maybe ignorance is bliss. When the wind hit my cheeks and there was nowhere to retreat, I knew it was the end of the home I'd grown accustomed to. Shattered glass windows, tearing through my skin. You broke to pieces in front of my very eyes, and I stood there amongst the storm like a deer in the headlights - destroyed by you. I called in the best of contractors, to fix up the home I once knew. But when the mess was cleaned up, you changed the locks on me. With nowhere to go, I sought refuge in the beds of strangers. But I keep finding shards of glass where no doctors can see - lodged between my heart and the space you left between us. Isn't it funny how safety can turn its back on you, and how the best of repairs can never make things new. It's time to find a new estate, with top line security. I won't be hurt again, not taken by surprise. I know you changed the locks, and my doors will always stay closed. But if you change your mind, just climb in through my window.

All Too Real Estate
The captain held the wheel against the sea His sails were gashed, but maintained their integrity And so the vessel found its weary peace in swaying waves where the birds feel less wind than breeze The splintered wood would hold its bobbing form until the husk could be retooled in the home port And though the repairs will handle new storms, battle scars of yesterday shall remain stalwart Lest the ocean deep claim one more casket of sailor’s lives, goals, and dreams before the maggots

From the Storm
I'm not quite sure how addiction grabbed me I picked it up slow but it grew so vastly Started with ***** which turned to puffs, powder and pills both downs and ups I'd have one in my hand two more in my pocket effects don't matter just want to skyrocket Please, take me away to the places of unknown help me escape sober feelings, I've outgrown No happy soul been broken to pieces the puzzle repairs each time the **** hits Hiding away from both friends and family deny every time so please stop asking A boy, once joyous now fell from grace peace of mind only comes from numbing his face No pride, sheer shame pure feelings of failure thoughts run wild' Will it all end here?' Partners in crime now long deceased a harsh realization of succumbing to the beast Praying for help and pleading for power rise and prevail stop trying to cower There's a want and a need plus strong will to succeed to turn life around since devoured by disease Now I stand here humbled with apologetic eyes for my selfish acts under a life self prescribed.

My Addicted past
Music is wonderful, It gives us joy. It could be classical Or it could be like, "mate, ahoy!" It is invisible and beautiful, It soothes our souls. Repairs what is broken, It makes us whole. It makes us laugh, It makes us cry. It makes us realize How time has flown by. It helps me cope When I am down It gives me hope When I want to frown

Music
As I look into your eyes I see stars twinkling And trees dancing Between your lips But your thoughts Seem to be waved away By the strong current of the Ocean inside your skull- I am totally lost in Your forest where we Used to camp our feelings up And grill our agonies- As my universe is not Yet ready to let go of your Broken constellation For it repairs the Unknown abyss of my every Dimension that is screaming "I don't want to lose you".

I don't want to lose you
In the flawless dark high overhead Torea shrieks ripping holes in the silent korowai of night again Torea calls and further off faint again now silent the cloak ripples settles repairs the tears stillness sprawls warm as aroha Tricia Lambert Torea-the Maori name of the Pied Oyster Catcher Korowai-a ceremonial cloak Aroha- love, unconditional love, similar to the Greek, agape

NIGHT BIRDS
Riding in my backpack chattering gibberish she charms the man who is in a good mood so he repairs my typewriter      on the spot, no waiting,      for two six-packs of Bud. He throws in a free ribbon, too. “Don’t tell Boss,” he says, winking at my daughter, who is as yet too innocent of her power.
