"stack" poems
The world's gone mad but my mind is made up. Time to let ya'll into the darkroom of my mind, A place where I'm the referee of a poetic world cup. This is where I am creative even though I'm blind Don't get me wrong I am not leaving from town. No more radio or TV saturated with all the sad news, I have got enough breaking news of my very own... Breaking to me each and every moment as it brews. Come and meet the hard drive of my creative doom, That contains my beautiful and liberated mind. Welcome to my one bright side I call my darkroom, It's a place that's so special, I reckon it's one of a kind. You have to know that I always act blind but I see. In my mind, I can walk stack naked and levitate. My mind is where I remain totally black and free. Come join me set my poetic dial and help me activate, The code that will outshine any power on this earth. My mind is where I live and where nobody has access, Here I can run a poetic marathon without taking a breath, Call it my playground and intellectual fortress. My mind is deep, a place of absolute calm and refuge, Somewhere I will always see as the final frontier. It is dangerous and toxic like a nuclear centrifuge. In there, I am all alert and vigilant like a soldier. My mind is a darkroom where I give birth to new ideas. It is a vessel and place in which I do magic with letters. It is my holy land of thoughts, my own creative Judea, Where each idea is sacred and light as bird feathers. Welcome to the epicenter of my creative mind. This is where I turn letters into spoken words A front line of creativity where no one leaves behind. Come and see where all words become useful swords. My mind produces powerful words like some light beams... Courageous and powerful words for extra motivation. Spoken Words that will light up people's faded dreams. Now you know that up in my mind are no limitation, There exists an enormous capacity of time and space. Welcome one, welcome all to the darkroom of my mind Take a seat and be calm, be quiet this is my place For this here is my personal creative post of command. www.poemhunter.com/IvanBrookssr #Vanguard-poetry23 #IvanBrookspoetry twitter @ivanclappers @Bassapoet

Darkroom Of My Mind
The world's gone mad but my mind is made up. Time to let ya'll into the darkroom of my mind, A place where I'm the referee of a poetic world cup.

there’s a barnacle scar deeply ingrained on the basalt stack at mark thirty two whispering summer winds scented oil cotton and roe drift as waves brush and shape the sandstone shore the briny air and lost erratic set a tone to this pollyanna portrait it's andrews undulations and gifted benches its concessions and traces of the barry burn its sculpted driftwood and sanko lines make this picture almost perfect children play as venom spews from the caterwaul pair those odd looking mates casting smiles with arrested despair settling shots swiping bugs dipping and darting as photo men and muscles and long neck seabirds make their turn the hunched hoody and his sorted sidekick get their fill (of moss and rubble ~ chubby and kelp) nice to meet your acquaintance the pho man would say an odd drop and ironic turn from those horrific corners of timeless desperation down by cannon bridge harbor seals and carriage horse are fronted by raven shade jolly tides pause in quiet bays (with curious looters and *** pickers) sand merchants and field totems all streamed by the light cirrus strands blanket the outer edge hovering craft and shimmering willows bolt the evening frame blood orange and tethered with a filtered glare bottle-nose dolphins and seabirds (and shifting tides) are all settling in for the long night stay

~ ⚘ ⚪ ⚘ ~ After days of long studies comes the days of rest. My violet dreams were slumber-soft filled with lucent lilies of curling flames born of ever colour known and unknown. And I stood in awe of them as my fears fall back and cower in the shades of my mind. ~ ⚘ ⚪ ⚘ ~ I muse at how quickly my body relaxed. Due to my marjoram'd pillows and sheets of pure silk and eiderdown? Or due to the sips of the lavender tea in my in my teacup decorated with a butterfly motif? ~ ⚘ ⚪ ⚘ ~ I remember the sips in fours as I blew the steam from my cup; The first sip balmed my lips. The second soothed my throat. The third lulled my thoughts. The fourth stilled my soul. ~ ⚘ ⚪ ⚘ ~ Though the tea, the pillow and sheets were had a hand in my nightly rest, the real answer is on my brow - for it was when the night's cool air blew, and where you placed your sweet Morphean kiss. ~ ⚘ ⚪ ⚘ ~ With a smile, I wake. Sat on my golden summer throne located in my marble gazebo; a jewel in my private garden. With thin caryatid pillars, draped in fine doric chitons encircling me. Their sculpted limbs hold up the frieze carved with acanthus that has a stained glass top of peacocks and stargazers. ~ ⚘ ⚪ ⚘ ~ The sheer curtains billow when the eastern winds blow. By me, a gold side table with a mirrored top supported by three Greek key legs. A pewter quill pen with a steel nib and violet feather rests by its clay inkpot; both beside a silver sinuous nouveau vase and a small stack of poetry books of black leather and gilt. ~ ⚘ ⚪ ⚘ ~

Be kind to yourself. You have come so far. Each emotion you feel tattooed to your skin the seasons wash away like chalk. Be kind to yourself. You are braver than you thought. No longer scared of what lies beneath your bed but what awaits when you wake up. Be kind to yourself. You are worthy of love. Only you give permission for forked tongues to leave passing words as lasting scars. Only you can adopt old failures and stack them as obstacles upon each new path. You cannot dictate what will be only – who you are. Be kind to yourself. You are doing enough. You cannot always be switched on. Sometimes you have to lay down and breathe – it is not greed. If you are always exhausted you cannot help anybody. Be kind to yourself. You did not grow from a single cell born from a dying star in order to feel so small. You did not close the door on friends when you expected more from them. Why beat yourself up for who you were before? Be kind to yourself. A faltering dancer who gets up again and again draws the loudest applause at the curtain call. A person who spent half their life at war with themselves knows the value of peace, the feat of getting out the house; the measure of good mental health. Be kind to yourself. You have come so far. They say ten thousand hours is the time it takes to master an art. You spent so much longer than that learning the patterns of your heart. You can pull at those common threads that keep you together even when you are falling apart. Be kind to yourself. You are stronger than you thought. Like Leonard says, “there’s a crack of light in everything. “ You do not have to be perfect. You do not have to live in the dark. Be kind to yourself. Make sure you get to the end. Do not worry how you stumbled at the start.

Oh, how I always wanted to live in an 8-bit world Side-scrolling action Duck hunts galore As much currency as a first-world country It’s hard not to love it From Pokémon to Kid Icarus The nostalgia nearly takes my breath away I won’t let problems stack up like Tetris I’m not being chased by ghosts crying, “Wacka, wacka, wacka, wacka, wacka” This isn’t a video game, it’s real life When you die you don’t respawn like nothing ever happened No, this is it. One life. I’m placing blocks in Minecraft Pwning n00bz in Call of Duty Gaining headshots on Grunts like Master Chief Gathering rings in Sonic the Hedgehog Sneaking around like Ezio Auditore da Firenze And delivering newspapers like Paperboy While escaping the mysterious Slenderman I’m living in this virtual world without danger I don’t want to make it on these streets like Frogger I don’t have big shoes to fill like the plumber or the blue blur This ain’t no sandbox or first-person shooter, it’s reality So, live it to the fullest, don’t rage quit

8-bit Feeling
You don't know strength until you have been a real *** You have no idea how deep this **** really goes, Its not for the faint of heart nor you squares, Too much of the game is not being sold but shared, The cold breeze that chills your bones at night, The dark eyes of other girls standing under the streetlight They don't understand our struggle or see our strength They only know the bad and try to stop it at any length Yet we all share the same vision with similar goals Inspired to stay down by his game that has no holes We have all been given instructions to carry out fast Breakin a trick make him give you his very last Show him your down for him add it up He will take care of your trap and stack it up Every real 304 stands up when her folks is around Every real p loves a real one who's down for his crown Some say its silly to pay a **** your hard earned doh But it races through our veins so when he sends me I go Maybe I'm a dreamer and he is the merchant of dreams And I am investing in our future crazy as it seems But when he speaks I believe in the words that are spoken And I make sure that I don't get too deep in my emotions A **** is a born and from day one he is already game To build himself a stand up *** and and get his fortune and fame. So a message out to those of you who don't know They say pimpin ain't easy but it takes true strength to be a real ***

Doom train hurtling along Through the fog in my mind Towing freight, rectangular and oblong Dim headlights, you're travelling blind Five carriages long, excluding engine and caboose Metal against metal, spitting sparks on steel Undetermined path, rails will choose Chugging along on dirt covered wheels In the cabin, I see the light Emanating from your furnace Swallowing up coals in your gaping bite Tongues of flames licking the surface Fire breathing, spewing thick black smoke Almost unseen, against the dark of night A long plumy arm as if extending to choke And plug the remaining sources of light Meandering precariously on tracks that weave Over uncharted, unfathomable terrain Your store, so reliably you heave Worming your way through my brain What's in that cargo of yours? What lies within those boxcars? What drives you to diligently run your course? What fuels you to travel near and far? Loads of self pity, self loathing and self reproach Snaking your way to an unknown destination Screeching brakes as if a stop you approach Herald the train of dubious intentions Light is upon you, dark will dissipate Your plumes starting to lessen from your stack The dawn breaking horizon you didn't anticipate To see another charging towards you on this very same track...

Doom Train (I)
Dare to live. Stop insisting on chasing after death. Stop trying to die. Quit the grand illusion. You shall never die. Grow your wings and fly to the mountaintop of your world.  Breathe stars. Bravely go alone. Only you can do this. Regularly in your day--exercise conviction. Visualize Stars, the Sun. Golden, fibrous threads of starlight, of sunlight -- take them in, through the nostrils. This is nothing less than soul's power-fuel. Inhale slowly and experience the gentle music of love's fire, as flames would pull up a chimney stack, up pipes of ovens. Faith builds with such breath practice. Greed cooked transformed. Anger put to rest. Ignorance surrendering to ways of knowing. Prepare that your purpose shall speak to you. Breathe starlight. Are you surprised that you feel no heat? Your unique timelessness awaits your recognition.

Breathe Stars
Nothings how it looks in fact, maybe the opposite People say I'm energetic When I'm fighting for consciousness Downed NyQuil to solve my imperfections Took Benadryl to sleep Drugs make chatter over the back and forth banter of boredom And action A trip to the hospital Affects the people to care for a minute Hallucinogens fade, but this music it stays No 3G left **** it lets sing Words slurred eyes red I don't give a **** spread love Acceptance And tears of joy The ones that run over the face of a baby boy Mama's proud Baby you're so smart! You're gonna be so successful! Yeah I remember those days Now its nicotine sticks on my lips and E's for my mom to brag about They think I'm lost Am I? Testing to be done Society approved pills to pop And a letter from my aunt Words spread like dye in water I've dropped Down from the heaven of the early years Lucifer can maneuver his way around the city unnoticed A spy who tells lies to himself and greets the people as equal Human again I'd like to be All I want to do is live! But a life's money, family, and a plan Floaters get flushed Couch potatoes get crushed Lazy ***** Ha They just get fat Like these joints everybody wants to roll **** is for beginners but what happens to the pros? No trophy for the taking No stack of gold Just a massive headache And dependence Diet coke doesn't count My sis puts her heart on her sleeve Me I don't even think I have one No wait it's up my *** **** me good **** me long That only love is what turns me on If not Keep out Of my head Or Switch, light Too god **** bright to illuminate these white walls I'm hired to paint 24hrs, 365 days a year, until the day it’s complete Avoidance Births time from time Cuts wrists to elbow Show how mellow I can be Let me cope Every days a new day Born today die tomorrow Next day Wake up Look in the mirror and decide what you'd like to see

There’s a menacing chill on the air this evening. “Had I the wherewithal I’d leave this place,” I think to myself as the first warning is issued by that unfriendly cloud hanging low and dark over the mountain. While once I thought that the rain would fall with purpose, I’ve come to understand that floodwater has no manifesto except to place the scumline as high as it can. We can stack these sandbags tall around our hearts without regard for what’s on either side of the dam. They’re only transient monuments to ineffectiveness anyway. An assassin stands at the corner wondering if I’ll ever leave my house and its warmth. I have news for him, though… There’s nowhere to go, and the weatherman thinks we’ll have a storm.

Mind The Bathos
A tale of many cities confined within Deep dark secrets stacked in. Lies, the world presume as sins, That’s how the story of ‘The Black Box’ begins. Cramped amid the four gloomy walls, ‘The Black Box’ is what he calls. Looking to unscramble pieces at the bottom, He rolled up his sleeves to the problem. Not knowing, this can put him in a ditch, And ‘The Black Box’ can act like a ***** He went on in the search for a prize, Unaware of this forthcoming surprise. He knew, many have tried to look inside, To find a package of perfection in the hide Disappointed to see the shattered glasses, They closed the box to put it with a stack of more boxes. Still, he preferred to move ahead, In spite of knowing he will lose his head. The minute he thought he was nearer to precision, A way distant he was from the actual incision. The time will come, when he will have his threshold, Sooner or later, he will have to fold. After all, no one can alter the history, No matter what! ‘The Black Box’ will remain a mystery.

Inside ‘The Black Box’
well that was lunch which was preoccupied with such thoughts of the typical poet eg why does the world want to cheat me.. what is the point and what is for tea..my lover´ s eyes are burnished fields´  of wheat i thought of love and lily.. a small blue bowl of vague reminded of a broken heart and since stopping smoking marijuana has my art suffered unnecessarily.. or is it better some clue must tell the difference between the placid and uncontolable rage the compatability of lasagne and rice the oxymoron.. the pollution of serviettes.. with our destructive urges laced with inexplicable flat cola and creation.. not unlike hunting for searching salt to will made in our own likeness cold soup to chips to explain.. what is this thing called man chapatti and jam.. we have to have to tell we have to work and then stack to clear them.. begin again the thoughts of a typical poet and soooo end..

well that was lunch
Sunday night and the park policemen tell each other it is dark as a stack of black cats on Lake Michigan. A big picnic boat comes home to Chicago from the peach farms of Saugatuck. Hundreds of electric bulbs break the night's darkness, a flock of red and yellow birds with wings at a standstill. Running along the deck railings are festoons and leaping in curves are loops of light from prow and stern to the tall smokestacks. Over the hoarse crunch of waves at my pier comes a hoarse answer in the rhythmic oompa of the brasses playing a Polish folk-song for the home-comers.

P-Postponing all those things until another time R-Rostering them for attention down the track O-Offering all sorts of excuses stalls one's climb C-Constantly one defers the mounting job stack R-Repeatedly ignoring their pealing bell chimes A-Acting upon them requires an assertive knack S-Still one avers in responding to their rhymes T-Taking not a step forward nor any back I-Initiative and get in and do it isn't one's paradigm N-Never does one heed their ever tolling clacks A-Always sitting in an idle non moving show time T-The day shall arrive with a great waking whack I-Into motion one shall soon be called to climb O-On one's toes the chores are waiting in the rack N-No more disregarding the many sounding chimes

I was awoken from a dreamless sleep      By a boy with short brown hair,      Who, with an urgent stare, Told me to head to the showers! As my eyes creaked open to recognize,      The orange glow of this unfamiliar room’s lighting,      In front of me, in handwritten writing, A page on the wall showed three in the morning. When I glanced around a room of shared bunks,      I saw all sorts of people and things,      Running around with things to bring To these showers I had yet to see. In a winding line down a high ceiling’d hall,      I stood with so many,      Who like me, hadn’t any Idea what was going on. With a whirlwind flurry of commotion      Steam crawled from the showers and water sprayed,      As we were told in a big disarray, To wash off the place from whence we came. In a neat little stack, I was handed my clothes      A tunic, with a sash      And a captivating mask To “celebrate our exciting return home.” Down dark rustic stairways, I watched like a child      The vibrant light and affinity,      Radiating with enchanting divinity, From the otherworldly people and creatures below. Through that noisy, jolly crowd,      We were led as a group      And the boy said with a whoop That we were all to stand up and dance. His eyes glinting with excitement,      The brown haired boy explained      That our spirits would be ordained Through a celebration of our inner light. Onto the stage I was led      As I stood with my class,      Nervous amongst the mass Of silent, numerous spirits before us. As the boy hit the music      I felt something from deep inside      Rush out like a tide And through tears of joy, I danced. It was at that gleeful moment      That my friends and I,      Realizing we'd died, Knew we'd returned to the forest.

Through that noisy, jolly crowd,      We were led as a group      And the boy said with a whoop That we were all to stand up and dance. His eyes glinting with excitement,      The brown haired boy explained      That our spirits would be ordained Through a celebration of our inner light. Onto the stage I was led      As I stood with my class,      Nervous amongst the mass Of silent, numerous spirits before us. As the boy hit the music      I felt something from deep inside      Rush out like a tide And through tears of joy, I danced. It was at that gleeful moment      That my friends and I,      Realizing we'd died, Knew we'd returned to the forest.

A tug of war It is the past experience and what was saw and felt A word in keeping a person in line A restriction of one’s thoughts and actions A procedure in holding one back ******* being a form beyond one’s accord Thank God there is a Lord There is a chance to survive More than a thought being a strive I dream but all I see is a nightmare I see effort, but when will there be preserver? Its like a road block with detour A method of turn back I feel as if I am trapped in bonds Maybe I am still sleep and need to wake up from my yond Perhaps it’s nothing more than a dream It’s my thinking I am in a movie stream But its truly tough being rough A different slavery oppression of the past with a theory of the present A overseer continuing in present oppression A silenced voice having no expression The downward bound with no mountain reach It’s time for a rebellion approach Oppression is real and not a joke It’s like an open wound with having a stinging poke Oppression is alive and attempting to do well Yet the world has a message in tell ‘OPPRESS AND OVERCOME, ITS ABOUT NO MOVEMENT AND BEING NUMB. IT TAKES MULTITUDES IN SUPPLYING THE STRENGTH, BUT ALL MUST GO THE MILES NO MATTER WHAT THE LENGTH” Survival is how you chose to live Its not a verb but is subjective The voice must always be objective Oppression cannot continue in terms in having its way The sunrise has risen and it’s a tomorrow being a new day These are the times to move forward and be strong It’s a matter of all personalities of creeds in knowing how to get along So shake whatever chains you feel you have on Stand up and be counted where you belong Don’t let any form of oppression hold you back You have grasped the concept of understanding in the theory of thinking sharp being the detailed tack Just give oppression one big smack Listen America it’s the various cultures that stack Oppression stand back as you have been defeated being a pack.

I will contemplate my boredom today, it's terrible, I must dedicate my actions to something ethical, So I'll go agitate all the photo chemicals, It won't automate, it's not a technical miracle, I will be the chaser of an adventure to set out, To steal a stack of photo paper someone had left out, Took it from "The Enticing Taylor", stole his photo clout, I'm no hater but you better remember to take out, Your **** when you are done in the dark room...

Milk And Can (A Holy Cow)
I've been thinking it's time I retired, acquired a rucksack to strap on my back and returned to the slow track. Hitting the road and taking the load off my mind, with many needles to thread and a hay stack for my bed I'd be content with it all, to drift into the colour of fall and ever so slowly disappear, never here for long,never there or anywhere but everywhere I would be, free from the trap laid by polite society.

SQUEALING
The little boy stood, with cone in hand. The ice cream on the ground. The tears welled up in his eyes, as people stood around. Tears fell like rain, his heart was breaking, he didn’t know what to do. Then through the tears, saw grandpa kneeling… Saying, “Grandpa’s here for you.” Grandpa said to the ice cream man “Another ice cream please.” “Stack it high and pack it tight.” “We’ve got things to do and see.” The little boy melted into his arms The sorrow turned to joy. When grandpa’s near, all is better For grandpa’s little boy. Oh, grandpa loves you Tony Boy Forever and always. When things get tough, call on Him He will lead you through the maze. When you get to Heaven, many years from now. You will find me waiting there. I’ll be by the ice cream stand a waiting Just for you to get there . The little boy grew to a fine young man. The time went by so fast. He learned of things not of this world. The things that will always last. You could see grandpa and the young man, Walking side by side through life. When things got tough they called on Him, To help them through the strife. Oh, grandpa loves you Tony Boy Forever and always. When things get tough, call on Him He will lead you through the maze. When you get to Heaven, many years from now. You will find me waiting there. I’ll be by the ice cream stand a waiting Just for you to get there . The young man cried when grandpa died. As they lowered him in the ground. Tears welled up, in his eyes As people stood around. Tears fell like rain, his heart was breaking. He knew just what to do. So he looked up high to see the Father And heard “Grandpa’s here for you.” Your, grandpa loves you Tony Boy Forever and always. When things get tough, call on Me I will lead you through the maze. When you get to Heaven, many years from now. You will find him waiting here. He’ll be by the ice cream stand a waiting Just for you to get here Oh, grandpa loves you Tony Boy Forever and always. When things get tough, call on Him He will lead you through the maze. When you get to Heaven, many years from now. Your will find me waiting here. I’ll be kneeling right next to Jesus While I’m waiting for you to get here. Good night sweet Prince. See you in the morning.
