Hey, you all those who gathered
with complaints around my liver
coloured like  a crock pecked mango
please remember:

Often life turn yellow
when there is no greenery around.
Synthesis Dec 2016
I’m a thousand miles up
Silk robe
Polo boxers
I think I might jump
I know I can fly
I know I can fall
I feel incredible
I feel like Basquiat before rehab
I feel like VanGoh in love
For once I’m sober
in this moment of clarity I can see the sky as well as the concrete
Equal distances apart
Either one attainable
Both so tempting
Flying or falling
Soaring or stalling
GRAVITY’S A MYTH PERPETUATED
BY THOSE THAT FEAR THE INCREDIBLE
The girl in the bed is screaming
My cellphone is ringing
Hotel staff is banging on my room door
I fill my lungs with the fresh air
And feel the breeze
I don’t step off the ledge
I jump with all my might
In that moment, suspended in the air
I can feel Gods hands wrapped around me

— The End —
