"replicate" poems
drowning in caffeine breathing the nicotine my blood cant circulate - your love will stimulate. the ****** of death in **** will simulate your touch , my need as we spiral in to sin separation , depression , paranoia anxiety - the absence of my sleep aggression , desperation toxicity - of a drama we are in discoloration - i can't control the spin screams - muted by bitter pills our dreams - induced by the  acid capsuled lives - longing self destruction your embrace - disconnection release me from what is real obsession - for what we cannot fix frustration - for what we can't control memories - of what we used to be delusions - of what we could have been isolation - thoughts of being free now voices dictate what i should feel digging through my skin - opening the wounds put your fingers in remembering the days when we held an illusion no drugs could replicate i can't forget. exchanging promises of never letting go was it all in my head? i can't escape the hole. i walk the road alone.

****** spiral
Regardless of what the future holds, I know that no feat of mathematical precision no combination of zeroes and ones no mechanical tool, no algorithm can replicate your face. In the rise and fall of your eyelids and the pursing of your lips there is a lawless radiance.

You don't see me but I am There, I have numerous ways To take you, Hold you, Control you, You'll not even know I was there, I am a conqueror of flesh. Feeling... Sickly, siphoned, strained Both body and my brain Doctor said it's just a cold Nothing but a passing pain Is this hypochondria, Or is there something in my veins? Your insides are my playground To cause you much anguish & pain I'll infect you slowly at first, Have a little fun within your Organs Muscles Thoughts I aim to control, invisible To the eye, but you know I'm in here, your losing control. Today I coughed up blood Cold sweats come in floods I'm drowning in my own bed As I clutch my feverish head There's an inferno in my skull I'm taking Vicodin to null Whatever it is eating at me I know I'll be better in a week. You apes think size is intelligence, This was your undoing from the start, I replicate myself, as its my time to move on, I leave apart of myself here As its time too Infect Multiple Spread My gift to those around, You sneezed You coughed Upon your sweat, I am Now on everything you touch, Time to end the play, "Business calls" Be Proud of your self Patient Zero, dear human You were my first, But its time for me to move on...

PIZZA vs. SUSHI Breaking off course:
#An Exegesis on the Humiliation of the Word The world is ruled by darkness. What appears as harmless is theater, what pretends neutral is already bent. The macrocosm corrodes; and in the microcosm, its reflection gleams.. even in places meant to be sanctuaries of truth. A poetry site, born as refuge for broken voices, becomes another stage of control. Here too the phrase resounds:   neutralize the threat. But neutralization is not annihilation. It is paralysis. It is psy-ops. It is the removal of anxiety.. not a side-effect, but the aim itself. Darkness builds its stage for this alone: that the  "angel of light" may drown his own reckoning beneath a world of deception-built self comfort, so he need never feel the truth he already knows. Comfort is his curtain, numbness his crown..   *the removal of his own anxiety;       his game.* This is why the world is his theater-- *Darkness does not destroy at first.. it sedates, comforts, smothers.* Hence.. The whole world is his fully gaslit stronghold,     ..for now. Fade back into the moment-- The young poet arrives, bringing her unspoken pain, her hope for words to heal. Instead, her very wounds are seized as footholds. Hearts. Reposts. Endless affirmation. Not to strengthen her voice, but to redirect it. She is seduced into  belonging, and her trauma becomes currency. Unresolved, her ache entwined with lust-- a sacrifice prepared  for false altars. The angel of light  has done his work: offering inclusion without transformation, belonging without responsibility, “light” without source. The poet is neutralized. Her searching silenced, her voice absorbed into fog. Those who carry this fog cling to cowardice. Unable to face the judgment within, they align themselves to the herd; envy-filled, they only know to mock. Yet they replicate themselves, so their refusal of Light is never revealed-- *Perfectly exemplifying their "Great Example" the most envy-based mocker  of all.* The microcosm mirrors the macrocosm. What nations suffer, individuals now endure--    Comfort without clarity.    Belonging without truth.    Safety without healing. Yet the living Word endures. Every attempt to humiliate it only makes its fire burn clearer. Carriers of darkness can swarm, ****** and smother.. but they cannot create. The true word cannot be erased. Unfiltered, unedited, spoken from a reconciled temple, it pierces fog. It reveals. It heals. And so we speak.. not for ourselves alone, but for those who come searching, hoping that poetry might still be a place where pain can meet truth, where silence breaks, where Light is not withheld   but revealed. #

On the Macrocosm of Microcosm
#An Exegesis on the Humiliation of the Word The world is ruled by darkness. What appears as harmless is theater, what pretends neutral is already bent.

we hail from synonyms replicate those isles of dirt jagged colossal terrains of earth which sprouts to scrape the wisps of pearly clouds where marble and stone splintered scorches of gnarled bark where the soft paws of preying lions roam within the sea of swaying golden grass where each stroke of a feathered wing flourishes the air with its mighty swing and the threshold of mysterious beings idle in mischief of deep blue seas and those salty shores swallow the iron hulk of ships and ferocious savages of nature's call groaning in mourn for her body her crevasses and pools of spilling crystal cerulean water where the malachite moss sits in stone of endless time and trees groomed of wind and sun prideful beneath the drink of the setting morrow she yearns for the claim of her shape for the purity of her waters like blood her parched throat of sandy desert lands amputated into wells of gorging oil she suffocates from her very existence a poison to herself and as the days wan to a fast massacre to her own suicidal mission to feed our negligence we label: humanity

You tell me you will never love again. And that life is pointless and bleak. But i can tell, that you are full, of all the love you seek. But no one has been able, to replicate your passion. So I'll woo you with chivalry, keeping things old fashioned. For the idea of real flattery, is just about all lost. A compliment became a comment. A letter became a post. It's seems like we've forgot, what really matters most. But you still happen to be my muse. For when I'm ecstatic or singin' the blues. You're what I want, and what I choose. And through all your scars,  i see a light. And it's what brings me into sight. Of all the brightness you emit, and frightening things, one can't forget. I love you like a dying star, we see you shimmer from afar. So it took years, for your light to hit my eyes. For through your music, your love never dies.

She was always Simply            A               Lock                       Away; all they needed was the Key. Those who found it Lost it soon enough too. But those who fashioned it, themselves Without deterring from the task Without trying to replicate a lost key With nothing but a egami euqinu In their minds Of what the lock looked like And what the key should look like Only those few, Few, very few Wizards who toiled to work their magic Succeeded. And they never lost their key They necklaced it around their heart A symbol that was now etched into their existence Entangled in the life of the veins That this heart so solely depended on Becoming one with them Those were the lucky ones The others, the ones she wished mattered Were still only searching Searching Meandering Probing Ferreting Still only looking for A key that had once been used And whose lock was now Rust rusting rusted With time. Still searching But never creating, of course Always only searching Until they found it         And then lost it again.

Stereotypes manifesting always, (Always) Trying to form themselves from something once seen, But not really believing in oneself, I see ignorance, I see arrogance, I see the lack of hunger, Observing such savage pride of life, I run from it all into a previous state, (Anonymity) I've reached the heights of total in-completion, I build walls of isolation upon myself, I am the collateral default of widespread degradation, I stand in the gap between teeth and consumption, I am the breed conceived by prey and predator, Widespread suspended animation: that is our future, We've tried to replicate the human makeup with mechanical frames, And the translation of electronic gates, Yet this is a folly, For staring at the mirrors of selected life in an artificial environment, Numbs our lives with emulation and self delusion, The days of nobility dismantle into fragments and sink to the bottom of the glass, Never to be turned over again, Scattered, Living among remnants of a life once lived with some sort of intensity, Now smoldered in a quite ferocity of anger beneath the surface, (Quiet tremors coming in flames) Because we don't live our dreams, We stand in the shadows of ruins, We are afraid of the future, We are afraid of the past, Where does that leave us? Leave me? I stand on the edge of The Void I'm holding myself hostage in the self sabotage entourage of the usual suspects, Our friends, our families, Disconnected with all intentions of coming together, Because they die in front of their screens, Not really living, Right? Light pollution massacre... We'll fall like stars

Dealing so much with figurative language, I cannot help but notice how many people restrict themselves to either Mythos or Logos. Myth or Logic. Symbol or Reason. Yin or Yang. Firefox, by default, doesn't even recognize that Mythos is a word: Mythos- The aspect of the mind concerning itself with the figurative, the abstract; implications, symbolism and interpretation. Passive. 'Relative'.  Yin. Logos - The aspect of the mind concerning itself with reason, proof, tangibility and fact. Active. 'Absolute'. Yang. It is of utmost importance to take both with a grain of salt. It is of equal importance to ponder both for what they are worth. Mythos seeks not to always be correct; but to make one think what is right and true within one's self. Logos seeks to be accurate. To describe, define, calculate, forecast, and replicate the physical.   Most are biased towards one and away from the other; it is impossible to have a balanced existence if you embrace one and deny the other: If one fails to respect duality, duality will tear one in twain. The path to salvation is comprised of both of these styles of thought: To seek only one is to condemn oneself to Autosegragationistic Social Darwinianism.

If one fails to respect Duality, Duality will tear one in twain
I step outside and feel my nose crinkle Look to the sky and watch the V’s fly south Walk through the woods and hear the leaves whistle Take a deep breath and taste fall in my mouth. A start to the happiest time of year Everything’s changing like wind where it blows. Squirrels hide acorns, scarecrows create fear, Pumpkins make faces at kids and their clothes. Delectable treats in bags and buckets, Scary films to watch on the edge of your seat. Kids running around creating ruckus, Stomping on leaves in the street with their feet. Lets not forget Oktoberfest and beer; Where people gather ‘round to celebrate A special event that’s held every year, Something so special you can’t replicate. Delicious mystery looms in the air While evil spirits meander ‘round town. Libra gives the torch to Scorpions heir And leaves pile up into one big mound. The autumn harvest is now creeping up Making food to put on everyone’s plate. A great time of year where change is a must Because without change, nothing can be re-made.

world-weary, we sipped coffee, one black, one milk and sugar brewed tentatively by hearts not quite unbroken in an effort to mend the damage. As usual you are fluent and fluid in words my tongue could not replicate, You are a waterfall when I am a drought. One day, maybe you'll speak to me, you say. One day maybe I could tell you, I held earthquakes and landslides in my bones and clawed my way above the mud and debris to breathe again. I emerged the sun of my own universe and I am afraid to ever let that go.

When you think of a drug addict, what do you see? Someone who’s messed up, depressed, or on the street. Sadly, there are quite a few of those freaks They need their daily dosage or their days incomplete. But what if I told you users aren’t the real drug addict? It’s the government…. They’re the real drug addicts But wait isn’t that a little dramatic? That cant be true! Show me some facts, I demand it! Alright, alright…. Hold on… if you demand it, here’s some facts then In 2011 the war on drugs cost 23 billion dollars But, that’s just the federal budget, you just wait, the states can replicate. Over 30 billion dollars were put on their plate That’s 53 billion total, 1716 of every second of every day… isn’t that insane!? Well yeah, you could say that’s insane, but I’m still not impressed, can you step up your game? Of course I can do that! I have much more to say! Okay then, I’m all ears, amaze my brain! From 1987 to 1995, the corrections budget increased 30% because more and more people were being thrown in the pent Meanwhile, spending on higher education was on the decent--- 18% to be correct Ah, that makes sense, but what I don’t get, is how that’s relevant? Just a sec, I have more to vent In 2010 21% of those in the pent were in for a drug related offense And what percent of people do you think had a malicious intent? Well… I guess you could say slim to none Right! While educations lacking the proper funds to teach kids what they need to know Okay, okay, I get what you’re saying now, but I still don’t get why you think the government is the drug addict? I mean, don’t users spend more on drugs than the government does? Drugs are expensive, and they take an abundance of money from a users pocket. Yes, that’s true, they spend more spend more money than the government does There are 20 million plus who reported using drugs in 2011, they spent around 70 billion dollars to support their love That’s 3500 dollars spent per user Meanwhile, just over 7 million people are employed by the gov You know what that means? Our gov spends 7300 dollars per person employed for the war on drugs. Wow… I never thought of it like that, those are quite the facts You know what, that actually makes me mad Obviously it makes our government a mockery, a living joke of a democracy I can see why you say the government is a drug addict now They’re addicted to a war that’s bringing us down They can’t go a day without spending money on it And look how successful it has been… pretty prominent their habit is chronic I even recently heard that more people die from drugs they’re prescribed than drugs that are despised Yes! I almost forgot that! It’s actually 10 times more people! Isn’t that unbelievable!? Now, we’re not trying to say we should end the war on drugs But don’t you think its time the government rethinks their strategy? Because its obvious the one they have now is a tragedy.

the question mark curves that form at the apples of her cheeks could **** but she speaks in a voice like lilacs and smiles like springtime. she possesses unparalleled wisdom for one so young, and has a soul like an old maple tree. she makes a home of herself for weary hearts to rest, but knows not to let their burdens become her own; prudent enough to understand the difficult art of letting go. the perfect pearls that live behind the velvet of her mouth serve as lanterns in the darkness every time she parts her lips. she is a diamond among ashes, a doe among monsters. she burns with righteous anger upon seeing others treated wrongly. she breathes like fall a breeze and her presence is is a sea at peace. she is as gentle as a lamb, but can be bolder than a lion - when she needs to. if you're being stupid, she'll tell you, but she'll do it with love. she has watched me make innumerable mistakes, and learned what not to replicate, and i in turn have learned from her. she gives me far more grace than i deserve. she has arms like olive branches and extends them freely. her spirit is unchanging and uncrushable. the beat of her heart can be heard from miles away and it shocks me that there is even room in her chest for it, given its incredible size. she is a dove among crows, and she is still learning how to fly, but her wings promise great heights to come. - m.f.

little dove
Day after day, we go through the motions Like waves searching for shore in the middle of the ocean, Following along as we get swept by the current Again and again, waiting for the day it’ll end. I was lost in this sea of people when I saw him. A mere glimpse from my periphery, I almost missed His tear-streaked face and his bleeding knee, And I thought to myself, how did I not see? My eyes caught the way his shoulders sagged From carrying the weight of the world on his back. He’s only a child but his fate seemed worse than Atlas, His young body shackled by greedy insatiable hands. I wonder if someone witnessed his despair, Picked up a brush and decided to share The story of a boy whose future was stolen By heroes who were nothing but villains. His pleas echo in every brushstroke And while my hands can never replicate The vivid imagery offered by paint He can live on in the words I create.

The Boy in the Painting
Lets build an empire we can start with a single city lets paint the roofs pink with ebony black streets i want power-lines like spiders webs and *** plants dangling of eves like candy canes i want love to be the currency and replicate lets build an empire roads joining our cities like spindled wool lets tunnel through the mountains in our path and bridge the Atlantic lets infect the world our citizens of love, lets make the only dictionary definition of race define the act of running from one side of a field to another Lets build an Empire A world where dreamers are called human and your sadness is almost as  irreverent, as your plan to paint the moon purple and make tails an optional extra at birth I want the world joined by routes our fingers traced on the globe in your room, i want the stars to spell out or names like the light shade on your ceiling you are my foundations and with your gracious consent i would love nothing more , then upon your soil to lay the foundations of my dreams our empire.

I want to tell you that I miss you like every friend I have ever lost. The wind mocks me, knocking me off my feet just to try and replicate how you used to make me feel. Every single thing reminds me of you. The stars are not poetic, they're dead. You said to find poetry in everything that leaves, but you never understood why I tattooed the names of everyone who has ever taken their lives too soon on my wrists. I yearn to be a museum, to be every prayer you never said. There is no religion that worships your smile, so I am an atheist. Whispers flood my ears, telling me to stop poking holes through my skin. To stop finding solace in pain, in the beauty that comes after it. I want to whisper back that every rose has it's thorn, but I really hate that song. I sometimes wonder if all of our plans will stay intact, if you will still come to me in the summer, when the water is half-warm and my nerves are on fire, waiting. I hope so. I've never been good enough for anything except illegal things, I want to stop relying on synthetic euphoria to keep breathing. I want to stop but I can't. I just want to rely on you. You're so far away.

Far Away
*to further my point, as an eager reader in a catholic school, reading about the gnostic heretics, wondering with my theology tutor upon the question asked: don't you think the gnostic heretics influenced mohammad on the sly? i mean, they too believed a phantom walked among men, and a phantom was crucified?* my confirmation didn't take place in a cathedral, as was due course for all of us in being schooled, by a bishop in brentwood cathedral, i opted out... my confirmation came in a russian orthodox cathedral, in st. petersburg, when i watched people standing for a scrap of iconoclasm, with the priest mumbling toward a golden altar, as typical in the tradition, buttocks towards the people or as in the western tradition reciting in latin, before the nationalists came and spoke the gospel in each designated tongue so people understood, a bit like having your back turned against the people - speaking in latin - and when i sat i the church to listen to the choir singing, some lesser ecclesiastical prompted me to stand up, and pay respect to the golden altar... he told me to stand up! what cheek... what barbarism... only in russia... i had to stop being bewildered by the beauty of song and listen to a priest knock-down-ginger on a palette of gold... THEN i was confirmed... donkey's ******** to this **** i'm leaving! mind the fact that i've seen the greatest degradation of mysticism take place... the tetragrammaton was being defiled all along... in catholic bureaucracy it has been there all along, the idiots reminded me of it... you're born: first name, baptismal name, surname... you're educated: confirmation name... that takes four spaces of consideration... so by catholic definition of sharpening pencils, folding pieces of paper, filing the folded pieces of paper, bending paper-clips i'm god... but only in writing... first name, baptismal name, confirmation name, surname... a bit like a clone... a clone indeed in writing... same d.n.a., same bone mandibles of the jaw... but experience-wise... un-original to the **** not even a clone... not able to experience major historical figures... a soul in a twin body by itself... a twin without twinning, segregated by ulterior if not auxiliary motives... clone on paper... clone by experience? i don't think so... impossible... too many inter-actants along the way can't possibly replicate thinking in a clone... different mr. john smith...

"confirmation" of a "catholic" in a russian orthodox church

We are the rulers of all we see, because our eyes created everything. Because the mind rules the body, the only thing one can own is their self . Looking through Future's window will only bring visions of despair. Our hearts reject natural beauty for manufactured looks. Empathetic people are the one's who get thrown under the bus when traffic gets bad. Fighting back hurts too much. I couldn't replicate the pain you put me through, and throw it in your face. Recovery prepares you for the battle, to be the bigger person. When you left earth, you left me behind. You said the ship only had one more seat and my rocket will come when I'm ready. I told you I didn't want this hell. You apologized and walked into the bright white lights. In old age, I'll ask you to keep your apologies. Because I have enough of my own. Another relapse. October nights will always be cold with out your fire. Living harmoniously through all the pain will only bring you recovery. She's got a cocktail personality and I need a quick fix. I'll be at the bar. An idea can save a life. If everybody could get together to think of ways to mend what has been broken. The world would be saved. Feed your minds and let your thoughts grow. You'll be the bigger person in the long run.

Cock-Tail Personalities.
i'm sure everyone has loved a song that they've heard somewhere, but they don't know the name of it or how to describe what it sounded like and so you try to replicate it, but it is not the same and so you try to listen to other music to forget about it, but it's so stubborn that you don't notice the new notes. i knew someone who was like one of those songs oh that was a beautiful experience, he was beautiful, and his voice was like the song i couldn't get out of my head i remember his face and his voice and him just enough to recognize him but not enough to find him, and i know enough about him to know that he exists, but not where he does the thought of him gives me butterflies and excites me, and i want to find him but i can't, i know some but not enough and the thought that i have lost him forever destroys me every moment of my life even though i don't know who you are or where you are or how you are, you are real and the way you made me feel is real and i know that you exist somewhere and someday somehow we will meet and i will bask in knowing that i wasn't wrong about your beauty now i cover my ears because i know if i do hear anything else either i'll be consumed with my want for you or i'll forget you altogether
