Eat me before I eat you Staring with **** eyes I'll be yer mantis (Who's the ***** Swallow me whole Devour me alive Loving it more Than all the whips of Caesar Regurgitated hate like Mary Shelley's Frankenstein Or pigs feeding on blood and bones At the trough Boring my way out thru Yer ****** ulcer guts You shouldn't drink like a fish If you aren't at sea Weakening your resolve With surly drunk parasitic me This is how we show Our extensive toxic love sensibility

**** eyes
i starve myself for this moment gifting you my delicate sensibility emptying my body for you bearing my scars wide open let you touch my vulnerabilities you swim through my body back and forth cut my skin layer, after layer, after layer no corner is unknown to your touch your firm hands exploring my every parts you grab me, lift me, toss me taste my honesty and fears fill my body from the tip of my hair to my toes break the wall in me as you penetrate my soul pull the innocence from between my legs like silk conjure beauty in me make the bitterness in me disapear you break me, brick, by brick, by brick, by brick pull my hair, tilt my head drain every muscle in me we break walls that leads to others, that leads to trap doors, that leads to infinities the past and the future merge into one to meet us in our present we breathe as one, form a unity one body, one soul, one purpose we connect, interlock, intertwine we levitate to an infinity of desire reach the line between reality and transcendance the moon and the sun both witnessing the beauty we're creating we ****** and create an explosion of billions and trillions of blooming flowers piece by piece, you build me back up bit by bit, we emerge from the magic we made from caterpillar to a butterfly We are born again!

I gaze upon your beauty Breathtaking in its wonder I lie nestled in exquisite solitude Beholding your majesty King to my Queen In hushed reverence Dominating my vision Noble in simplicity I surrender myself to your moment Giving up my heart Abandoning all sensibility Knowing you will never forsake me Lulled by the gentle flooding Of desire to never leave this place Or your fascination (C) Pixievic

This is not poetry This simply spoken on earthen tombs Or was it tomes Or was that tunes If it was then it wasn't Because the past is the future and the present is but a thinned out pancake of a reality Double bongo tulip termination Implied with the finger-ly pleasure Upon my love's blackened buttons Drunkenness sensibility declining reeling sealing the post-operative convolution of Tarzan's missing breath Target, TARGET, (target) Reckless love leapin' side' a train-station tumor

Spartan Nightmare
Sweeping past the lineroom yards With a long hand held broomstick Malayandi was a daily sight, A hard and indelible insight His quiet mouth a taco Betel leaf and tobacco The sweet red rose scent Animate his hands to accent Rhythms in the dirt puddle strokes of savage broom Frolic along sewage groom Gargle alongside marbles Rake up ripple giggles Babbling bubbles fling Driving mild stink flakes To spread morning Knit into a dead neat serenity. On festival seasons vacations Instead of grooming the vassal comes blooming with big vessels Collects cooked food in measures From each and every homestead People pour in quiet leisure Rice in a *** of metal Curry in another kettle Filled with reverence and pleasure His heart is brimming sure All different kitchen meals In a single container appeals All children of the same ranch With many a range of community A bonehomie of unity The children heard from their friend his daughter They'd preserved All those food in cold water And all the while They'd eat from it too This collected meal for a week or two This made the children to look up at them With same respect due to a national anthem Are they more advanced? With knowledge enhanced In matters of life and cleanliness? Malayandi was unaware That his humble duty covered Sweeping as well grooming The children's hearts With arts of rare sensibility.

Malayandi -the Saga of a Sweeper
what's the point of buying a portrait if you are blind? nothing i would see is worth my precious time— just more metal, bad skin, and tired, jealous eyes senseless sensibility is a cold kettle boiling, nonsense steam fogs up the jaded glass. draw a picture with your finger, smile as it fades to apathy, all that lovely water turned to gas. i lick my palms to play pretend with illness, stay in bed with the quilt kicked off-kilter, crawling with the brood of the six-legged past; they are eating the nests of the threatened, bitter future change the cable channels in my brain, but only stations two and five are clear, and eight if a wire coat-hanger antenna is bent at an angle from my dominant ear so i can sit, content, and watch the weather sneaking in exhaust from every orifice gets me passed out stupid every time; a coping mechanism, coated **** between the gears, and only this pollution left behind.

this pollution.
***What if I say, I am not like the others? Are you afraid of seeing my bloodshot eyes? It ain’t a delusion of your vision It ain’t a theory of your hostile mind Its just an authority to reveal high As you ****** up in the midnight. What if I declare, I like to be a pothead? It ain’t a crime of your filthy society It ain’t a ****** of your hypersexual beauty Its just a power to absorb black hole As you get dissolved in the infinity. What if we believe, we are united peace? Our intoxication could never be slayer as your humanity diminishes   Our immune could never be a flame as your democracy fire burns   Our dealing could never be an acrid as your judgments villainous Our indignation could never be a pretender as your sensibility veiled Our lonesome shadow could never be a congress of love as your realization mortifies And our congregation of morality must have been psychedelic painkiller. What if we deny, we are insignificant existence?     So, who are you crippling our bloodshot eyes, A Social featherbrain? Who are you to stop having "dopetherone" in the town, A godly crusader? Who are you to proclaim the rule against your mind, A phrenetic lawyer? What if we deny, we are insignificant existence?   What if we believe, we are united peace? We will keep walking with our head held high.*** April' 2015

What do I do to make you not want me? Is it my sensitivity? My lack of sensibility? If only I knew how to truly make you happy. Because you only know how to show that you're unhappy. I guess something's got to change.

Insecurities
Rarely had my vision been focused in the past and maybe for this reason the passage of time felt as if it was little more than a forgotten dream. I often found my eyes on an icy reflection of a naked man standing before a fogged mirror, fresh with the haze of a hot shower. I would gaze upon him and he back into me, pondering to myself "who are you stranger?" I could only assume he thought the same of me. I would wonder when he walked away from that tooth paste stained portrait if he ventured into the world with that familiar vigor, that naive sensibility to battle the demons, the contradictors and the liars. If he too would laugh at these same fallacies in himself with a certain kind of madness that could only touch the ears of the few free men among us. Those tragic spirits who dared to dance, to transcend ancient genetics and modern culture in hopes of touching a god they had long forsaken. We may have given it a different name but we were no better then the theologians before us, we clung to our most primal desire. It weighed upon us with such force that hunger, thirst or even lust felt like a pestering annoyance in the shadow of its glory. Our appetite for connection far surpassed our need to facilitate our biological deficiencies and in those moments of understanding we reveled in the irony of being minds trapped in fleshy bodies. A smile crept across my face and one grew upon him. I knew this man who stand before me, unafraid, bare in body with a dastardly grin. He was my oldest friend, the ghost who spoke to me in my most vulnerable moments when no others did. He cried for me when I could not, would not cry for myself. He had always been there for me and for the first time when I turned away from his reflection I felt him follow too.

C'mon lets flirt with death ?
What on Earth took you? Do we dare land? A lark of descension. An aborted beginning. Moon trills. Captain is dead at the controls. Mother gives birth in the airlock. Trouble in the passageways. A struggle to name it. A drink before eclipse. All that's wrong with the world sounds like harmonium in the (wishing) well. First flight over Hölderlin's Archipelago, creating new and stranger versions in the sandclouds. So this is Tharsis Rise? Life without a trace. Non-terrestrial Martian field. Halcyon flowering seas. A rock with no trees, no urban hopes. Yet, the whole universe inside wants to be touched. I love you in zero gravity, pushing tender buttons. *** as solution. Moon trills. A kiss of atmosphere. This alien womb. Those android embargoes. Our children are born echoes of astronauts. Lunar schedules their first words. There's a lightspeed sensibility to this type of marriage and parenting: no leaving the hub, no exit procedure. The Sol they sing is a harm hymn, moon trills, subject to the ladder and the weight of breath this outside Earth. But I love you in the veil of a twilight moon. We're monuments burned into moments. Moments without a beyond.

Permission to Land (Moon Trills)
How Poets routinely tell lies or truth with great "sincerity" and earnest projections of "poetic charisma" and lashings of "who me tell lies?". and yet they routinely avoid truthfulness, in case they forget the  power of lies and truth, in their search for fame. Mesmerised by its attendant celebrity groupmind and of course its wealth.. Indeed Poets don't want to know that truthfulness has nothing to do with truth. Indeed Poets don't want to know that truth is a lie and a lie is truth, two sides of a darkened mirror and both are equally valueless except  for  seeing false faces in.. Poets bleat on about how the shackleable object of their 'love' , she or he, are not theirs to own or categorise or monopolise. yet they keep on expecting full submission and just getting an empty back, and a disappearing set of footprints. Like the sheep and goats that Poets are, they bleat on endlessly about their wants their wants  their wants. They want fame as Poets--disguised as distribution deals. They want contracts to produce garbage for HallMark--as if.. They want **** licking critical acclaim--from **** licking critics. They want international poetry prizes from aesthetic morons-- wearing Armani suits. They want Groupies--but not ******* They want Media eulogies--but not truthfulness. Always are they deliberately forgetting that "you cant always get what you want". The last thing that Poets want is what they need most of all. They really need An end to the narcissism of those that want to be called "poet"--in your dreams. An end to the juvenile arrogance that motivates them to put up strings of meaningless associated words and vainly call them poems. An end to childish immaturity, and inchoate meandering through other peoples words and experiences, stealing others lives and characters. Always incessantly pretending that because they can read the words of others that they have also shared their experiences--indeed their experience was deeper wider higher. In another day and age of non-violent sensibility   these kind of Poets would be called thieves and liars. In this day and  age they scribble emotional garbage and pretend its "poetry"--encouraged by intellectual follies. As poets they have become walking proto cash registers. Sin Verguensa. Sin Verguensa. Sin is Spanish for without. Poets are  SIN integrity. Poets are SIN Truthfulness. Poets are SIN decency. Poets are SIN. Im so glad I could never be mistaken for a  Poet. Wouldnt want to be mistaken as a poet.

Unprovided -- the pleasure of pleasing is, after all, a painting that resolves the irritating swings of a taxed evolution. It seems that energetic trainees of the future keep firm invitations on the list of approved measures. Yet living is not a guesstimate, reality is attached by humor to the document that simply reads "I'm not sure." Imagine civilization as eight-years-old. By want, business drains, not one laugh, but the replacement of being one's own. Shaped, the body is wary of the counselor and satisfied by the character of a farmer and time away from scorn. Hang a map of sensibility in the kitchen, where bare eyes can respond -- tokens of action are the door prize for motivation. The lessons not yet learned are musical.

Prosperity as a hobby.
I rolled in Michigan strapped to a kayak in the namesake lake vision obscured by freshwater I plunged under the blue surface out of my element panicking as a fish out of water- in water I reached for the release and missed but grasped swelling panic Dread thoughts of the end... my family… last words… Still submerged- somehow a semblance of sensibility surfaced, unlike myself frightening fantasies flitted- shot like skeets in the sky and peace prevailed. I stretched through the moist blindness, found the release- my sweet release. Gasp air. Freedom from death's clutches I see my unpreparedness for death, ability to survive Fifteen seconds to find my inner calm, my inner panicked strength, the depth of my composure fifteen seconds for reevaluation Fifteen seconds submarine style to find who I really was and am Arguments are made that safety and tranquility are the best mindsets for education But, safety lacks motivation, tranquility lacks demand, Life's trials breed introspection.

I’ve tried both and failed equally so I’ve little to contribute, so let it be stated in manner unequivocally, the sweet sensibility says too well, but helicopters crash and monied snowplows run over other both their own and others better deserving, leaving all of them buried in snow piles street side, while those who blame their faults on insufficient love, are later most demanding more attention than any, having becoming painfully hardy, by being treated hard about, hard on themselves and worse to others everyone knows the answer to this question for themselves but I’ll leave you with this, permitting a child to fail is a winning strategy, as long as there is no legal limit regarding the amount or frequency on lifetime hugging

Relativity Sensibility If you ain't got perspective And you ain't reactive Then you aren't proactive These words only have meaning If you make them meaningful Advice should be a vice Get your daily dosage So in your old age You can be part of the new age The thoughts of many Has wisdom uncanny If you ain't ready And you aren't steady Then you lose yourself To the crowd

Relativity
To start -- being an adolescent with autumn eyes, seeking a prophecy for long-standing bravery to further the spinning spokes for minutes, five more, I burned the drapes to reveal a humanity only I could see. The expectations were elaborately existing, unsatisfying. Sons and fathers, years refrained from matters that reverse reverse reverse curses and maturity without purpose. Those idle accepted neglect, and the existence of an unsalted bridge was quickly detained. Alone, the foolish described to search for the future in geometric formation and coffee ring stains fading the desk. But the sense proposed in my decided equality drank dignity straight from the bottle. The road that lead me between two cliffs, Propriety and Statistics, with the rocks already pelting down, could not diminish my enthusiasm for necessary absurdities. There's no flesh in declared mediocrities. I became a luminary for pleasures of eminence, hope with resolve, opportunities in destiny. Blind gambles obliged the fear of exacting sensibility. Passionate follies created no-regret-consequences, satisfied stability. Only the **** are granted victories in eternal gaiety. Mortality is irrelevant if you let mystery be your urgency.

Why
.ah here comes england with its eccentricities, ah hier kommt polen mit seine christentum: where anyone can be a messiah, as stressed by the byzantines. my first love was the love of the english grey, (in honesty mentioned it was the double-decker first, since i fancied myself the great bus-driver of the no. 5 bus back home) earl grey came and said: ‘i can’t look at these skies without sunglasses!’ and so it was, mid-autumn with sunglasses at loss the sun-worshiper enter the moon idiot, looking for accents, looking for anything. in england they called him das deutsche - for reasons believable enough; the luftwaffe eagerly anticipating the tunnelling centipede that is the euro-star train-tunnel: the panzers are rolling in! the panzers are rolling in! strange he never minded the coal-miners as useful as minded by edvard gierek von silesia - to the dispute of silesians not ex-patriated to saxony (oh wait... texan boy doesn't sound as nationalistic as minnesota boy?). ooh pokey poo... writing about germany became so **** so recently, i forget that i started it: here’s to the english language’s chirality of s and z, actually being superimposable: from words in the socratic sense as encoded by plato i don't get a bunch of ideas... virtue does not make me ponder it with meaning or definition, i only see the kabbalistic sensibility of anti-alphabetical sequencing as v i                   r               t               u          e... otherwise              e      i    u             r         t         v; almost sounds like s.t.d.

This feeling I have that drags my spirit And I indulge in its lowly zest out of habit My feet they move in a trudge like manner Shoulders hunched inwards non receptive to splendour. How heavy it is in my heart I weep For a life been dealt in a single, swift sweep Cards that has been dealt from aeons past Oaths recited loudly so that they would last. Amidst the crowd of mask-faced happiness Unconvinced, I slipped past unfound lest I be careless. Discomforted in what on this path may lie Discontented as such that my heart whines a cry. Rigidity of routine when sensibility took over Bruised bad and battered well my heart tumbled after It felt like it's the end of my dream laden days Reality sinks in, picks on my heart and there it stays. I don't want to leave my coveted dreamscape I don't want to destroy my only means of escape On the ***** of fantasy, forever I want to stay But it's crumbling away alarmingly like sun beaten clay. I deceive my heart into thinking that there's still hope Truth is I may have come to the end of the rope Heart wants to hear a faint whisper of reassurance Mind chides heart, it judgingly delivers it's sentence. My cries cannot be heard, a wail of futile pleas Banging on locked doors for which I don't have the keys So weak this spirit for it has thus been broken Morsel by morsel, this hapless soul is being eaten. This burden I'm carrying seem never to have lightened It is the dark of this period I wish to have brightened Someone, anyone help...please show me a way In this god forsaken pit I do not wish to stay. However there exists yet a slim little chance Key to courage is somewhere if I could afford a glance Chances are that I may never even find it I'll be trapped in a hole in which I can never truly fit.

The days have blended into a poetic haze of mismatched syllables, hanging participles accented with a hint of discourage. My purpose use to be therapeutic. Each rhyme I wrote was a comma in my run-on sentences. And for awhile, I could breathe. Each breath became less wheezy, uneven and strained. After I gathered enough air, I dared to speak. Me? How could I even have the audacity to think!? To my disbelief, my words didn't fall on deaf ears. The anxiety, shame, depression and fear woven into every poem made me familiar in the minds of strangers. These strangers made me feel human. With quickness that's comparable to the slickness of a parable I was ****** from a catapult into the essence of prose. However, the latency between the beginning of my literary journey and the discovery of my gift for poetry was afflicting my sensibility. I succumbed to the bullying from hyperboles and the taunting of iambic pentameter. At times I was afraid to talk to neighbors for fear of narrative structure overhearing.   Now, I am wandering in a fog though the hills of unpublished work, echoed only by the crunch of "not good enough" beneath my feet. This was therapeutic.  Now I use it to influence my movements.

Back to the drawing board
. Not knowing chokes the imagination, draining all common sense Thoughts spin desperately as vacuous emotions paralyze actions, restricting sensibility Lethargic expressions wander the mind searching for answers While minutes become hours that never end on days you wish you didn’t exist Pathways once trod now retraced, examined of every “what if” step by agonizing step, seeking breadcrumbs leading back to a beginning long before now Darkness plays on sunny days, every shadow startles in breaths not taken for fear that this is it, falling on your knees, pleading to the sky, tell me
