Running
The momment I realized facebook was a pokedex for people Was the moment I realized I don't want to catch them all. Some pokemon aren't worth the trouble. Let alone making it double. Abra for instance, I understand you like spooning but if you're going to teleport every time I throw the Pokeball, maybe it's best you stay in the cave. cubone: Did you ever think maybe, wearing the skull of your dead mother for protection might mean you have some serious family baggage? Pidgey: I shouldn't have to keep buying repels to keep you away. If I stroll through the tall grass You appear every five minutes Without realizing I AM IGNORING YOU. Perhaps you should wait until I throw another ball. I'm trying to catch different pokemon right now Who fit my team better Have the Nature I want. You had your chance to be in my party When I fed you that Razz berry threw the first ball. Caught you. then you Evolved into this big mouthed Golbat About to swallow me whole. Trainers. Stop spending time on toxic pokemon Poisen types, koffing and wheezing. Psychic types that play you puppet. Don't throw the ball to them Let their grass rustle. Walk on by I'm transfering mine in for candies Catching Shinies legendaries whom there are only one of in this world. I stopped trying to catch them all. I'm searching the high ground taking time to look at their move set Running around town with them. We'll EV train each other, Get every badge together. BEAT THE ELITE FOUR Get knocked down Go to the pokecenter Do, do, dodo DO! Get right back up, together. Because it's not about catching them all. It's about healing the ones that you have.

It's there and I can feel it I want to reach it but I can't. I hear it in my speech, I see it in my dreams, I smell it in the air and I feel it in my veins. I see it in the eyes of creatures, I feel it from still and tidal waters, I even inhale it from all the green that surround us. I feel it through words that are spoken And I see it within those that are written, I hear its melodies, sweet sounds of a silent night Serenading in a foreign dialect. It makes me feel whole though it chills me right to the bone My heart wants to but my mind doesn't, My mind wants to understand but my heart is too afraid to comprehend I know what it is yet I can't tell what it is. Still trying to reach out to it but I seem not to reach it Part of me wants it while the other doesn't The me within me wants it But the me outside of me repels it.

*untitled*
O Fair and stately maid, whose eye Was kindled in the upper sky At the same torch that lighted mine; For so I must interpret still Thy sweet dominion o'er my will, A sympathy divine. Ah! let me blameless gaze upon Features that seem in heart my own, Nor fear those watchful sentinels Which charm the more their glance forbids, Chaste glowing underneath their lids With fire that draws while it repels. Thine eyes still shined for me, though far I lonely roved the land or sea, As I behold yon evening star, Which yet beholds not me. This morn I climbed the misty hill, And roamed the pastures through; How danced thy form before my path, Amidst the deep-eyed dew! When the red bird spread his sable wing, And showed his side of flame, When the rose-bud ripened to the rose, In both I read thy name.

To Eva
XXXIX Because thou hast the power and own’st the grace To look through and behind this mask of me (Against which years have beat thus blanchingly With their rains), and behold my soul’s true face, The dim and weary witness of life’s race,— Because thou hast the faith and love to see, Through that same soul’s distracting lethargy, The patient angel waiting for a place In the new Heavens,—because nor sin nor woe, Nor God’s infliction, nor death’s neighborhood, Nor all which others viewing, turn to go, Nor all which makes me tired of all, self-viewed,— Nothing repels thee, . . . Dearest, teach me so To pour out gratitude, as thou dost, good!

Sonnet 39 - Because Thou Hast The Power And Own’st The Grace
An Old Story I It was roses, roses, all the way, With myrtle mixed in my path like mad. The house-roofs seemed to heave and sway, The church-spires flamed, such flags they had, A year ago on this very day! II The air broke into a mist with bells, The old walls rocked with the crowds and cries. Had I said, “Good folks, mere noise repels— But give me your sun from yonder skies!” They had answered, “And afterward, what else?” III Alack, it was I who leaped at the sun, To give it my loving friends to keep. Nought man could do have I left undone, And you see my harvest, what I reap This very day, now a year is run. IV There’s nobody on the house-tops now— Just a palsied few at the windows set— For the best of the sight is, all allow, At the Shambles’ Gate—or, better yet, By the very scaffold’s foot, I trow. V I go in the rain, and, more than needs, A rope cuts both my wrists behind, And I think, by the feel, my forehead bleeds, For they fling, whoever has a mind, Stones at me for my year’s misdeeds. VI Thus I entered Brescia, and thus I go! In such triumphs, people have dropped down dead. “Thou, paid by the World,—what dost thou owe Me?” God might have questioned; but now instead ’Tis God shall requite! I am safer so.

The Patriot
If all a top physicist knows About the Truth be true, Then, for all the so-and-so's, Futility and grime, Our common world contains, We have a better time Than the Greater Nebulae do, Or the atoms in our brains. Marriage is rarely bliss But, surely it would be worse As particles to pelt At thousands of miles per sec About a universe Wherein a lover's kiss Would either not be felt Or break the loved one's neck. Though the face at which I stare While shaving it be cruel For, year after year, it repels An ageing suitor, it has, Thank God, sufficient mass To be altogether there, Not an indeterminate gruel Which is partly somewhere else. Our eyes prefer to suppose That a habitable place Has a geocentric view, That architects enclose A quiet Euclidian space: Exploded myths - but who Could feel at home astraddle An ever expanding saddle? This passion of our kind For the process of finding out Is a fact one can hardly doubt, But I would rejoice in it more If I knew more clearly what We wanted the knowledge for, Felt certain still that the mind Is free to know or not. It has chosen once, it seems, And whether our concern For magnitude's extremes Really become a creature Who comes in a median size, Or politicizing Nature Be altogether wise, Is something we shall learn.

After Reading a Child's Guide to Modern Physics
High school nightmares of being everybody's spit catcher. A real life idiot magnet that attracts nothing, but, negative forces. If you've ever felt like everything good repels away from you & that you can only attract the bad. Welcome to The Love Cult. We are: The kids that ate their brown-bag lunches in one stall then purged in the next. Cause we were afraid of being labeled with bad brand names. If you were the kid in gym class, that no one wanted on their team. If you have ever felt alone, tortured, abused and abandoned. When the only thing you can do to suppress those suicide dreams is to use your body as a make shift punching bag. Just remember, There is a big *** & beautiful cuddle puddle that will hug you & love you. No matter what anybody has said about you. We know that you're something special. I believe you're going to be okay, someday sooner than you think. It's a nice thought you need to Dig Dig Dig it, deep into your brain. Hello. I'm Bandit & I'd like to invite you to my family of passionate & loving friends. We go by The Love Cult.

Women Stereotypes 10w40 This is so popular, proven to have high performance even if it is synthetic. That does not make any sense realistically. It strokes engines brilliantly. The most expensive even on sale. It does not deter dirt. 3 in 1 The lubricant  can be trusted the fact that it dries quicker, penetrating the stuck locks as well preventing further corrosion. Exotic Graphite As exotic as graphite is, it does a good job by providing a long lasting lubrication. It repels water too! It’s cheaper that the rest and it extends life. It makes a proper logic economically. You pay less but get more! Lubricant Affordability 3in1 and graphite deter dust and are cheaper than 10W40. Does that make you more ambivalent?... ;0) Anticlimax lubricant  ambivalence has reached it’s ****** Armed downhill by the rusted adjusted shielded knight. Pasted in exquisite oil, no distaste or aftertaste. Dunked in abluent..........Dented but affluent!

Bring about a second war, or pack up - and go home. We can't accept apologies from Sicily or Rome. We can't impart cartography to mayors without maps. And no one wades the rivers here, and water fills the cracks. And water, liquid power naps, repels us at the coast, But draws us in at pipeline ends and haunts us like Dad's ghost. I died sometime, the future came, and everybody smirked and asked me, while we waited for my casket, if it hurt.

Dear Venus of my Heart, The Solstice of blue, once flourishing with fiery flowers red, the petals of our garden froze. The chimney of our cabin of dreams, ambitious as Alexander's attainments, pops with the fog of the remnants of heat. We used to defy the now frozen roaring raging river of time and drink from the abstract notion of forever. For me, it felt like years embracing the elation of our entangled hearts, despite the days that went by. But reality is a grey mirror, and, in a hoard of wretched ways, I wronged you. Our Ecstasy, even extremely enlivening, was fleeting in behalf of my secret despair. Imagine I a long-lasting love, a motto that guards me of any break. An unpierceable vowel, a couple for life, to live like lions loyal, bold and courageous yet entwined. So, to pour my emotions akin to the biblical flood and undergo an Ophelia, or even a Mimì, to subversion it distresses me. The motivations of mine may map me as an adamant, but I am a romantic, a believer of one true love. I just worry my machine shall yield to the snap of the edge and the ever yearly youthful yearning of restless consummation repels me. While passion is the feeling of the flesh, love is the feeling of the soul; one mate shall be fate. And my soul longs for you in spite of the lonely length that loosens our bonds. Thus, out of my outrageous offense, I repent. I lament my vanity, this vividly voracious scruple of kissing way before and tragically after the priest's last words without a care for the bride. I apologize for this erroneous early enamor and the ceaseless insistence to the raw departure, leaving echoes of you in pictures of us. But now alas is time for my final parting, to let go because move on I shall. Heart breaks for heart's sake. Forever and always, H PS: The fog shrouded our cabin of dreams. I feared going back to our place. But doubt no longer clouds my view, so I cleared the mist. Still, the chimney's black stains cannot be cleaned. Hope for this house rests on its grave. However, a new home is just around the corner. It is up to you to build it with me. I will be waiting.

I sit down I put on headphones I think about what they meant by "rubber soul" My soul is not rubber Rubber repels Rubber rejects Nothing sticks to rubber. Things stick to my soul People stick to my soul Ideas stick to my soul Places stick to my soul And they change it They shape it Maybe my soul is clay Moldable Flexible Soft yet sturdy Sticky. Clay

Rubber soul?
My daily facade is growing old, But my spirit must not show it. Weakness only attracts them more, Indifference repels it. They are the hyenas, In my kingdom of prey. One false move I die, One false move they say. I've built up my walls, I've put on my armor. But it only does little, To cease all the clamor. The truth is I'm scared, But not eager to say so. Now keep your distance, Before you're 6ft below.

I've been at war for a long time now with the girl inside of me She's smart and witty and skinny and beautiful and compassionate and kind and trapped in the depths of my empty stomach and super-glued heart as if I accidentally stuck her to one of the pieces chipped away by a boy who couldn't see her Her outer shell is hard and average-looking with chunks of fat in all the wrong places and it repels sadness and emits an uncaring aura that no one wants to touch That shell is bulletproof in all places except for one but this inner angel is not quite skinny or clever enough to escape through the jagged edges and paint her shell with her favorite color Maybe she's been locked inside her black stone well for so long that she no longer has the will to try

Oh, why give credence to the speechful lass who judges sanity among the two admirers differently, one fail, one pass, and take to heart the failure judged in you? Why question why--when both have done the same exact deed with no difference in the act-- should you be deemed a nuisance and insane, and he a hero, opposite of fact? "He stares at me, this stalker and a creep," says she of your mere passing little glance. "That staring handsome hunk I think I'll keep," she coos, his eyes ********** her in dance. Attraction makes acceptable the deed that otherwise repels the heart in need. (C)2012, Christos Rigakos

Murmuration (Trolaan)
Toss these brackened antlers to a Babylon of early crows where slim repels of cirrus lace the marches of Orion. I wore you as an amulet hard pressed upon my pestle arm as charms of montane lunar drift rebelled about your peacock gaze. There is balsam on the Eastern run in piquant writs of clementine , where jubilees of Persian mote reveille in the waiting still. As hieroglyphs of scrying palm lay wraith about the cindered pane you harried in ancestral bell.. The name of some forgotten God.

the wet brown deck planking repels the the holidays invading raindrops I count the ones that bounce up until the nth, a scientific notation number, achieves the mystical numerology status of "a lot" so, not even eight am, already have fallen in love, two or three times, once more she's a 'all night long' restless sleeper, mouth moaning and body thrumming, yet her smooth forehead is without lines, those tree marks demonstrable of the passage of time in human time lines breathing slow and at last resting quiet, I count love vows renewed as my glancing dewy-drops, but tally only the ones that bounce, reappearing as wet tears upon my foolish face thus, even heavenly raindrops numbered, have a mystical competitor, love glance-drops, in common, both, achieving the numerology status of magical mystery called "a lot"

counting miracle drops
I've got scratches on my knees From the pressure Ive received My heart beat quicked for a moment As the pain was placed upon me I can deny it all I want But the scars on my shoulders Match the edges of your words So then I'm alone with them And nobody answers the phone anymore When you're sick you fade quick into nothing My heart is a target Each beat shot at like an animal When something is dying you love it Then why don't you love me now? My sadness repels you like poisonous thorns Each one more toxic then the one before Who are you to me if not a hunter? Can't you see me scream when you fire? Tomorrow will be another sun and another set I believe in it I do That you can see my horizon The way you see a god Wait if I set the world down? Would the pressure I feel dismount Would it soften the blow of each bullet you shoot? I can't run because I'm stuck Always leaving, ways running away But not I Because I've got scratches on my knees from the world which I hold But you still use me for target

This beautiful island seems lonely, as if it yearns for a shipwrecked sailor. It has a hidden current that repels ships and swimmers. Navigate that sly, strong pull And risk being dashed to pieces on invisible rocks. But oh, the rewards, should you reach that sandy shore.

its soul is taken away from its root, its no more connected to its soil of birth. we love its fruits, but the grim reaper has removed its artistry from the earth. stripped of its delicacy, allure. its happiness poisoned by death right to the core. those array of colors begin to lose brightness. a glimpse at its surroundings seems much finer. its energy repels your stare. the death of a flower. the same ground that gave birth to it starts to expel the lifeless flower like a mother who no longer has a desire for her own child. birds & bees are no longer attracted to this wasted flower. it craved water and we denied it. a bit of liquid could’ve keep it alive. but we ignored it. we paid more attention to the beauty around it. from its seeds a new flower grows, and the breathless flower says its last farewells. its time to go. the beginning & the end. the soul of a dying flower sings its final melody, a song heard by understanding ears. but nobody cares. red exudes from its petals, for a dying flower these are burning tears. a human being on this planet lives this life. this is the story of a dying flower.

Death Of A Flower
Division runs rampant through unity on the break Torches flare as rage flickers smoldering kindling to flame Erupting the perpetual boils that fester beyond infections wake Fearful that lives saved are endangered for propagandas sake Nay, the divisions that split rip to shreds the patriotic fabric Shorn to threads amiable friendships that broach enmity Between brothers bound by blood shared Bleeding red in concealed unison given to each at birth As mighty Gaia trembles under the weight of shrugging Atlas Beseeching the old gods to return to former glories Resting lonesome Olympus from its divine pantheon To quake and shake the shared foundations built Atop mountains of lies stacked one after another Before the heavens part and holy Elysium repels The hearts of both men and women who dared divide A house unified on sacrosanct liberties inherent Gifted to the corruptible souls of humanity On the premise that justice should be for all That hold the highest values inviolable By any that would rabble-rouse the masses to forgo The established law of the land on such flawed premises Where words hold greater authority than actions convey And peace is but a pipe dream puffed in perfect rings translucent Fading before the light has a chance to cast dark shadows Imperfect in their reflection yet somehow flawless in impression Oh, if only we were not like that famous allegory Confined to our own individual caves Then maybe our eyes could open wide and once again Let in the truth that we have for too long allowed to blind us in hate Perhaps the fates would halt their furies And end our shared torment avoidable Unifying a once noble people to again stand proud A beacon to a world begging for freedom Clearing the fog of war and lighting the path Back to the house we once called home By L.R.Thompson

There are some people on this planet, that came here years ago in a space ship. They are called Pickers and they came from the planet Bnegative, in the Talkalot star system. They had to flee their planet because they had amassed a great negative attitude, which caused the planet to be swallowed by a blackhole.      You can usually avoid the Pickers if you see them in time.  Here are a few examples that will help you identify Pickers.  Pickers amass a great negative attitude that repels other people.  For instance, if a Picker comes into a crowded room, the crowd will bunch up together like a school of fish, hoping to avoid eye contact with the Picker.  Also, when Pickers find something wrong they will immediately  correct you, then go on to tell you why you are wrong, when you became wrong, and what went wrong.      Pickers will pick, pick, pick, pick, pick at you until hell freezes over or the PickEs clothes catch on fire or dies.  In that case the Picker will immediately find another person to complain about the cold, heat, or smell, of last said person.      There is no way to win an argument with a Picker, so it is best to nod your head in agreement until an escape route can be found.  As a last resort you can grab some poor soul  as they walk by and quickly introduce him to the Picker, then walk or run away, leaving the innocent bystander in your stead.      Pickers believe that if someone is wrong and they do not immediately tell that person they are wrong, the earth will  then blow up.      Now, occasionally one Picker will find another Picker and start Pickering the other Picker.  This usually ends in spontaneous combustion for both Pickers.      But, recently, scientist have found a planet that is suitable for humans.  So pack your bags and grab your ticket to the planet Apossitive in the Farout Galaxy, where nothing is wrong and everyone is right.
