"technicalities" poems
Consisting of grown, persisting as shown and unknown. Insisting entities, rivalries and sworn enemies! Deformed, forewarned, formed, informed, mourned, performed, reformed and scorned. Dates of great storms! Family tree of hate, horns and thorns. My family tree of gore, horror, more, poor and sore. Perhaps of mishaps galore. Briefly sit back! I’ll roughly take you back… Heck! Back to a time of attack, blacks, slacks and whacks. My family tree of practical, tactical, methodical Aztec. Some beckon and reckon in seconds. A family tree of crime, grime and rhyme. A nation of communication, dedication, dissemination, motivation and procrastination. The splendor of sin of my corruptive, disruptive kin. They rely more on the color of one’s skin. My family tree of abuse and misuse that misuses and seduces! Family tree of warfare and welfare legalities, moralities and family-prodigies. Picture this scriptural twist! Some assist on a kiss. I insist some are idealities in social technicalities. Alcoholics, diabetics, ****** exotic, fantastic, Catholics, eccentric, horrific and poetic. I persist… some gnomes, some roam, some in poems, some with no homes. My family tree of adventuresome, awesome, handsome and troublesome. My family tree of beautiful and bountiful! Some are a handful some handicap some locally and vocally-rap. Some slap, gift-wrap and yap! Some are snuggly, pretty, witty or ugly. In my family tree, some crippled, some with pimples, some with freckles and some that heckle. Some belittle and little, some wrinkled and old. Some are bold and pray to the lord! Some are Frio, meaning cold we were told. Some I say, are poor with no Amor. Some are here no more, in my family tree of Amor.

POEM ENTITLED: “MY FAMILY TREE OF AMOR”
Consisting of grown, persisting as shown and unknown. Insisting entities, rivalries and sworn enemies! Deformed, forewarned, formed, informed, mourned, performed, reformed and scorned. Dates of great storms! Family tree of hate, horns and thorns. My family tree of gore, horror, more, poor and sore. Perhaps of mishaps galore. Briefly sit back! I’ll roughly take you back… Heck! Back to a time of attack, blacks, slacks and whacks. My family tree of practical, tactical, methodical Aztec. Some beckon and reckon in seconds. A family tree of crime, grime and rhyme.

There’s no grace for a sinner here. In this little white room, with the little white girls and the good little boys. They all cast the stones, cracking my fragile bones, and making my dress quite black. There’s no place for a sinner here. Where they all look the same, all out to tame us, damning us all to hell. Technicalities steal pride, and Legality’s crushing tide forces our dignity to fall. There’s no room for a sinner here. You’ll do as you’re told. Dare ask why and you’re bold; never to make much in life. Backsliders are peered on over pretty noses apparently smeared on, by simplicity and a bit of wine. There’s no peace for a sinner here. Perfect footprints are left over, those lively blueprints we pored over through many a midnight candle. Both innocence and experience leave them incensed and indignant. keeping our consciences guilted. There’s no rest for a sinner here. Enjoyment is frivolous, laughter is selfish, and love must be evil incarnate. If this is what perfect, must look like, then I’m perfect- ly happy with the mess that I’ve made.

There's No Grace for a Sinner Here
Don't sleep Don't sleep I begin to Like you A little bit more I shift and sigh Say your name Fatigue rolls Somewhere by But, alert I Imagine So many paintings To make for you You mumble Childishly Your laughter Is glittery I wish For so little I wish too Intensely Dont wipe me With a stiffened cloth Soaked In turpentine And a hundred hues Dont stir me I might be disturbed Out of skill Out of thought Onto a burlap scene Grotesque Picturesque And so, so true Don't move Or I might too I might too Become a facet Among the facets Of your horrors I might Become art Might become Beautiful In that strange Black way Of art Dont sleep Talk to me Speak to me Let us be Normalities Let us Hold Technicalities Forget Sentimentality In the silly blue painting Of an eyeless pretty Smooth and porcelain Perfectly closed No night To mourn into Dissolve into To stumble, To tremble into Don't sleep I become too much alone Shrivel, burnt sienna I cannot move alone I become the paintings That I fear to paint I become the sombre Debris of your laughter Cold, blue Featureless A moonlit night Nothing but red You don't know That I like you In my head Come back Come back

What makes a poem - a poem? Does it express your emotional life and the selfish deeds it contains .... then you shamelessly Share it... Does it really matter someone might read it or not? Someone might understand you or not, does that really matter? In the world we live in many hearts have died for they don't know how our pen works. How it does - what it does. When a poem does all the technicalities, it may seeks the power of fame and fortune but does it really matter? I may not understand fully what makes a poem - a poem. But behind all of it, I'm just here trying to write a poem whom my heart spoke out loud like he never could.

What makes a poem - a poem?
satan was his favorite angel and he still let him fall don't wanna assume the worst for you but something about this feels wrong why wouldn't you hurt me is a question i hate to ask but i hear in the back of my mind everytime you linger just a bit longer and try to stare into my eyes so what if you want more if you don't want it all don't wanna invest the last of my trust if you're gonna just drop the ball this is a lot for me and a lot to me sorting through emotions definitions and technicalities seem like such commotion why can't we just try to give the other what they ask without thinking too much but expecting you to be as thoughtful as me is asking too much i just wanna make you feel good what are you trying to do to me

answer. the. question.
Trapped 'tween   adjectives' objections succumbed to   long-windedness, snared 'neath an   expanse of circumlocution, paraphrasing periphrases    buried under layers        of technicalities, all in a day's multiformity    working midst the madness            of poetry's sublimity

Trapped 'tween technicalities
going crazy for you was never planned. with your smooth words and exquisite body, i fell into your trap. never thought i'd be thinking about someone exactly like this. do you have me wrapped around your finger? because it sure feels like it. i've never been one to admit my feelings to anyone but you're just different. with all these terms and technicalities, i'm confused. what am i to you? just a lover or a partner? i'm tired of these complications when all i want to do is hold your hand and kiss you good morning. all while knowing that you're mine and i'm yours.

going crazy for you
How would I like to be loved? It is a very difficult question Because, though I appear, at first glance To be "The Guy Next Door" The reality, I assure you, is entirely different Firstly, every individual is different Secondly, I am autistic And finally There is so much about me That you will get to know Only if you are a good friend of mine How would I like to be loved? Well, let me tell you Love is not all about candlelight dinners Nor is it about *** in the bedroom It is about being there for each other No matter what If I truly love someone I would be ready to go to jail for her Of course, not if it is for something ethically wrong But you get the idea How would I like to be loved? If you have seen the Tamil movie "Thiruchitrambalam" Then you would understand If I were to say That I want someone to love me The way Nithya Menen loved Dhanush In that amazing movie How would I like to be loved? If you've seen me at my worst One of those days When I am in one of my rages And keep shouting and breaking things Or I lose my focus at work Due to all my insecurities Rearing their ugly heads Or I simply drown myself in my thoughts Refusing to come out of my bed Or I cry like a child Drowning myself in a tidal wave of self-pity And you still love me the same As you did when I was at my best Then it is indeed true love Enough said How would I like to be loved? When I hear one of Harris Jayaraj's romantic melodies And can instantly relate to it I know that I am in love And that love is real, not reel How would I like to be loved? If you ask me how was my day And I go on and on Droning about the technicalities of my work Or cribbing about various issues Such as candidates, clients or my boss And you never tire of listening to me Then I know you are truly in love Also, if I keep asking you how was your day Every single day after work And you never once tire of answering such a mundane question If that is not true love I don't know what is! And on that note It's time to wrap up this little monologue And return to hard reality

prying my eyes open with some god forsaken force unknown to me i blindly shove another sour patch kid in my mouth choking down the harsh artificial sugars choking back thoughts of you rolling my eyes back into my head as i think everything happens in good time right? neglected body hair and dry heat begin to scratch at my legs it's an ungodly hour of the night.../morning technicalities a bead of sweat rolls down my forehead and i think you'll come around as i lay awake dreaming of the last subject of my writings and pretend the excruciating ending is a mystery to me

blue raspberry
Etymology, Spanish. First appeared on a gravestone in Warwickshire, England. Means: 'loveable,' 'have to be loved,' 'deserving of love.' All technicalities aside, I'm not with you for your name. That'd be like saying, 'I'm here for the free cheesecake, but make sure it calls itself a cheesecake, because I trust cheesecake, but not the moon when it questions my insanity. Frightens me with the prospect of a normal life.' I haven't found the answer yet. I haven't been looking. I've been too busy loving you, until one day I woke up and realized 'its always in the last place you look.' I'd been nuzzled in your chest for hours before I noticed I'd found the most important meaning in life. Amanda. Etymology, Spanish. First appeared on a gravestone in Warwickshire, England. Means: 'loveable,' 'have to be loved,' 'deserving of love.'

Footsteps that were past tense echoing upon me like thunder, then the lightning fell upon my vision and it went murky in sight. I was within an eclipse of darkness. Hands clapping on my thoughts urging me to arise from this ill-gotten slumber. I was tied as if to be burnt on the stake of old, raised on feet I gazed in confusion. A rope levitated my throat to upper reaches just enough for breath but I gazed on a room of discord. All was as if anger had taken form and expelled itself on the surroundings. With muttered echoes I spoke, "is anyone there, But my words fell like dead leafs from autumns cold voice. I waited upon the mirrors reflection bouncing back at me of incoherent thoughts. "Hello Peter, how are we today, Confusion was my playmate as I considered my reaction to this voice of my solitude. I recounted the many repetitions of who I had angered in my life. And on me I struggled under there weight.

Karma Embraces With Retribution
Footsteps that were past tense echoing upon me like thunder, then the lightning fell upon my vision and it went murky in sight. I was within an eclipse of darkness.

We ran from the tears. But the strength of our cries inside our nightmares became something deceiving. You heard it in the other room, when I was dreaming. Blind and convinced that waves of illusions would flash me by, I psyched myself out. I traveled outside in different electrons and what not. Asleep and floating on the music note of my heartbeat's base. Some kind of radiance appeared in the back of my head, like it did after every story. Happily ever after you said once or twice before. I imagined things nicer because you lied to me. But that was love, or some kind of protection. Shadows and presents cover up the technicalities The footprints on the ground had painted colors into our adventures with owls and dragons... It was the two of us lost in our tales in dreamland. The stream of make believe we created glued the words to the page, and I followed my instinct. I knew where to find you. It was cold. But we were too far ahead to call it off now. Closing our eyes to escape form the monsters of reality became habitual and The white picket fence separates our two worlds from colliding. Like the words do, that describe peace and war. Hiding in treasure chest are the skeletons of what we wanted to be when we grew up. That's just unrealistic anymore.

Fears
This poem confirms it. I am a great poet. And not because I rhyme, Because I don’t. Or because I use metaphors, Because I won’t Just like the sky, I am for everyone. My words are meant to be sad, But to overall cause a thought. To relate my pain to your pain. To transfer an idea, The only one which matters. We are all the same, Just living our lives differently. When I am heartbroken, You are heartbroken. Because we are all heartbroken. And so I am a great poet. Because I can share, This simple fact. And make you think, About that one time a guy or girl, Broke your heart, Or brought it back, And so you’ll say I’m right or wrong, You’ll criticize the technicalities or, Over joy over the story I preach, But in the end we all agree. I am a great poet. And this poem confirms it.

This Poem Confirms It
I pray this pupil’s prayer, penitent for desiring an end to this madness of clearing away snow, only to find more, compact, beneath the loose surface No two snowflakes alike each snowflake falls with grace absorbed by tuition fees, books, books, books! O the books pour down clusters of refurbished cognitive technicalities Each unique in its crystal formation drench my shoes to full with repositories of Professor gods’ wounded knees and sore egos do I leggo my Eggo to feast on academia’s wine glut on the ambrosia of fine whine? What privilege to live in Snowflakia the snowbanks are too high, Sir! -still I climb, seeking purchase- It takes too much time! -yet I wade through the drifts- of alabastards’ Judas kiss A Snowflake ingrate nation in turn taken for madness I cannot find a flick to fling away wet sopping masses of absence from classes brain drain juices taste like molasses I revile the texture of their pasty ***** You haven’t a chance in Hell- -Ye Gods! Mea Culpa! I am sorry, O Ponderous Purveyors, for my blasphemous prayers I will see the glass is full of wine not molasses, I will be a good snowflake and fall into my pre-planned place Your liquid body will purify the well I want to fall with grace so I may rise without disgrace. ~ NM 02/04/19

"Every story ever told really happened. Stories are where memories go when they’re forgotten." - the 12th Doctor, Doctor Who There is no such thing as fiction. What we have deemed fictional are simply stories that have bleed through time and space from parallel universes and the past, present, and future. Authors are visionaries who see through the cracks in time and **** through the technicalities and details in order to entertain the mundane thoughts inside our conditioned heads. There is no such thing as fiction. Stories allow us to go places without moving an inch, be people we could never be, do things we could never do in this world in this body in this life. There is no such thing as fiction. Because how is it possible for people to write about fictional people places things and describe them better than anything real that I could describe. How could these people bring me to tears and make me want to throw books across rooms if nothing happened? How could they do that unless they were there and these people are real and these places are real and these situations are real? I don't believe it. I can't believe it. There is no such thing as fiction.

****** technicalities
You can try to light up the shadows But then all you're left with Is a blurry space that used to separate light and dark Now everything that used to make you smile Makes you sad And being sad Spreads a reverse frown across your cheeks So you try to shine a new light on your shadows But it will blur out the boundaries And end up casting even more shadows Speckled across other aspects of your life The act of trying to light up the most places in our lives While leaving the smallest shadows Is simple human nature You can keep adding light Add the sun and the stars But there will always be a place that looks darker than the rest Because simply taking part in our own lives Means that our lives will never be free of shadows It's the reason why eulogies seem so nice Because the dead have left their own lives for us to see And their deaths have taken those nasty shadows with them And all that are left Are the small overlooked shadows Technicalities of how the light falls So even if the deceased have suffered through darkness Their entire lives Looking back with their eulogies Compares their lives to blissful sunshine For the way the light falls around us Is not our decision But if there is one thing for certain It is that we are the biggest shadows Our light-basked lives will ever meet.

Shadows (tw death)
Stop over thinking it. Stop analyzing each and every doubt that crosses your mind. Forget about the hesitations that linger with every word. They are nothings. They are irrelevant - minor technicalities; balanced by society but can they be dismissed by love? I know I am a failure. As I cannot, for one second, forget these minor technicalities theses irrelevant maybes. They weigh down every kiss every look and every smirk Nestled in the back of my mind, I cannot stop, I cannot forget. I cannot overlook society. I can merely hope that you will have the courage to do so enough for the both of us to be happy.

Life after limb loss ‘I want to walk again’ they say ‘I haven’t walked in 40 days’ And this is the goal I’ll help them achieve But it’s not as easy as they might believe They’re in grieving Numb - denial - and bargaining ‘It’ll all be okay on the day I walk again’ They’ve lost so much Butchered Now first I teach them to touch To clutch To poke and **** I know it feels odd Got to desensitise It’s sensitive but try Press into the scar line Scar tissue can’t be allowed to entwine Keep it subtle It’s brutal ‘What’ll happen if I don’t?’ ‘I can’t cope’ ‘It doesn’t feel very nice’ Inside i’m thinking Please heed my advice In time They’ll need to cope with pressure like a vice I hope we make it that far ‘Bla bla bla’ ‘How can I drive my car with only one leg’ ‘I just want to walk and drive’ they beg. We start at the start Long way to go before we get that far. I have such admiration For the shear determination they show Can’t imagine even loosing a toe Whether to trauma, cancer or disease Limb loss below or above the knee Come to me It’s my profession But my confession Is I really care I really will be there for them Any way I know how We’ll plough through the technicalities Gait training Draining their energy Learning to use a prosthesis But there’s more to this I want to teach you more Than how to get up off the floor There’s life after limb loss Only they know the cost I’ll be there for you I swear to you I’ll truly care for you.

Life after limb loss

the technicalities of technique find cracks where there is no fault in cracked faces etched with smiles and written so it is that syntax is but confused hindsight that youth is but confused ____________ ...well just confused

Follow the Path...Which One?
Wave your solemn goodbyes, And sink deep into This murky clot of my Broken memories And messy past, For you've chosen that as your Dwelling place. Is there such a thing as a beginning? I refuse to believe it is so; There are only endings. Even this poem, A safe outlet for the tension In my mind to come forth into a Half-sleeping existence, Did not begin. Before I wrote this line, There were more, and before the Very first of them, Before I even put my pen to the paper, There was a thought. Even before that thought came to be, It was a memory: A memory of an event And the events before then, spanning History from its first breath To its culminating heartbeat. Shall we neglect the technicalities And philosophical musings for a Brief moment And return to the single drop of water Not quite yet, I rather enjoy confusing My own mind. Do you ever wonder why I Tend to cleave to you now? Because when one has nothing and Gains even the most trivial of things, It becomes infinity. Everything in one's world becomes Filled with the Essence of what was once so scarce. Give me a grain of sand And my world becomes a desert. Give me a pebble And my universe becomes a mountain. Give me a raindrop And my eyes behold a waterfall. Give me a seed And my feet take root in a forest. Give me nothing And I shall remain in darkness, As I was from the start, But never from the beginning. You dare give me your affection? You're dealing drugs to the addict. My empty life becomes a Panorama of your love, and what more Does humanity exist for Than to be loved as passionately As they do. Lines blur as if The world has inconveniently Placed itself behind a foggy window. My horizon becomes the sky, My sea becomes the shore, My feet become the grass, And everything-- Everything there is--becomes you. My heart becomes yours, My mind becomes yours, My soul becomes yours, My skin becomes yours, My lips become yours, And my breath becomes yours... Oh especially that , I am sure Because you stole it right from my Sensitive lungs. All my senses can detect is you And there is nothing better, Nothing more I could want for. I will be whatever I wish to Because I refuse to sit still and Settle into the Preset mold prepared for me, Yet now that I see you I loose my identity in your Fine dark eyes. I wish to be noting more of less Than what you choose to make me. Who am I? All I can process Is what thoughts sweep across your Beautiful mind. You finally realize what I Questioned all along: how can You love someone who is no one? I am the grain of sand And you are the desert. I am the pebble, And you are the mountain. I am the raindrop, and you are the waterfall. I am the seed And you are the forest. I am nothing And you are everything To me. Hastily recoil and retreat with all You bestowed upon me If that is what pleases you. I will still be nothing And my world will also be nothing, And you will be nothing but a face That tugs at my nothingness of a heart, Sinking deep into This murky clot of my Broken memories And messy past.

Identity
Wave your solemn goodbyes, And sink deep into This murky clot of my Broken memories And messy past, For you've chosen that as your Dwelling place. Is there such a thing as a beginning? I refuse to believe it is so; There are only endings. Even this poem, A safe outlet for the tension In my mind to come forth into a Half-sleeping existence, Did not begin.

Friday Night K-nulcking Under III <•> it is a (my) three day weekend it is now Saturday late morning Friday night we went to Joe’s Pub, you could look it up, to hear marvelous stories and marvelous singing then full stop homeward bound (apologies Paul), we swap Lulus for p.j.’s, and alliterative alternatives after having bathed and showered alternatively alternatingly debatingly the meritocratic merits of bathing methodologies and our respective but not respectable technological techniques and sundry technicalities are peaceable declared tied we have not left the confines of public globalist bedding since thenning, and no plans for departeeing not even for meals or anythinging (ok, barbecue chicken not cool to eat in bed) multitasking multiplayering music, poetry, Sunday NY Times, action movies non-stop, even napping, anything i want, as I am the only worker bee celebrating a workless Mondayee periodically and often, I kiss the knuckles on either of her hands and we laugh at my joking insistence for she vociferously denies, most badly connives, that she is (with a pronounced hard K) K-nulcking under to my every demand as she is equally guiltily and capable of excellent excessive leadership in the art of slumbering parteeying, ergo all good we still have Monday to resolve an unraging debating, this unurgent knuckle biting questioning who is the K-nulcker and who is the K-nulckee ~~~ for US citizens only: We approve this message^
