"visually" poems
A beauty you are out and within Insatiable desire to write poetry on your skin Your body my canvas feel my gentle brush Writing ******* with my ****** touch Cinnamon lips I love your tone Soft and silky to the bone Finding words..be my guide As we connect I come inside Filling each other..there's no strain Steady my thoughts I must maintain Watching my penmanship using a steady stroke I start hallucinating from my mental smoke Sends me into a frenzied flow I'll find my pace..go on a roll My words soak in as you taste My emotions invade your inner space Down from your toes..Up to your eyes Writing Haikus between your thighs Poetry on your body every inch You start writhing from my Scorpion pinch Sinfully venomous my words forever sink Into your skin my poetic tattoo ink As you lay naked I visually feast Every line of your body a masterpiece..

Body
I hesitate to show him the truth. The words I write may never reach his eyes I am afraid of the torture after rejection. These feelings cannot be denied, my poems will never cease to exist even if i erased these heavy thoughts I typed burned them alive the memories of us will float around endlessly somewhere, out of my reach. If he sees himself in mirrors in a monotone and meaningless way he will not anymore because reflections of him lie not only visually in images, such as projections on clear glass but in others who admire him too. We become who we love eventually Admiration for someone else makes us melt covering past pages of who were before.

Admiration
Lush is the quietude of the late Saturday afternoon, rich are the silencing sounds, as variegated as the shades of greens of a man-seeded, nature-patchworked lawn rays reveal some bright, some yellowed spots, all a potent color palette resting worry wearied eyes, untroubled by the gentle fading light's illumination, that soon will disappear and seal officially, another week gone by the lawn, acting as an ceiling acoustic tile, absorbing and reflecting the varied din of disharmonious natural sounds orchestrated, an ever present reminder      that true quiet is not the absence of noise I hear the chill in the air, insects debating vociferously their Saturday evening plans, the waves broom-swishing beach debris, pretending to be young parents putting away the children's toys for the eve the birds speak in Babel multitudes of tongues, chirps, whistles, clicks and clacks, then going strangely silent as if all were praying collectively the afternoon sabbath service, with an intensity of the silent devotion this moment, i cannot well enough communicate, this trump of light absolutes, and animal maybes, that are visually and aurally presented  in a living surround sound screen, Dolby, of course, all a plot of ease and gentility, in toto, sweet serenity here to cease, no more tinkering, leave well enough, plenty well enough

Lush is the quietude of the late Saturday afternoon
To cook something beautiful You need a few unsightly ingredients. Like to make a cake You need flour and baking soda Baking powder, sugar, and a hint of salt Water and eggs. They aren't appealing to look at By themselves Or even when mixed together. But when handled right, And with a little time Love and care An oven and a spatula You conform them into exactly the right shape And those unsightly ingredients become A tasty treat, But what's a cake without frosting? It's something bigger than what it was. It's a combination The frosting makes it more Visually appealing, It masks the overly cooked Side. Some air pockets from An inexperienced Or careless chef. It's masks imperfections. You can't force a cake to become perfect. It needs time, it needs love, it needs care. Dare I say it again, It needs time, It needs love, It needs care. When the cake Gets those, and is left alone To bake, To think about what it's job is, To not just be beautiful Covered in frosting But without it as well, You'll have the best **** Cake you've ever made. It won't be over done on one side Or the other, It won't have air bubbles, It'll glisten and gleam, And be pristine. You'll have a cake Beautiful On the inside and out.

The Perfect Cake
Music provides a blanket of background noise, As you sit, in a velveteen chair, legs parted, hands on your knees, I stand between them, silhouetted against flashing gold lights, I stare down into your upturned face & slowly begin to undress. Piece by piece my clothing drops to the floor at your feet, Pooling around my clear, stiletto heels. Your eyes too drop down, lingering on my ******* My skin, soft & sun kissed, shimmers golden in the soft light. I turn slowly, allowing every curve of my body to be illuminated, The arch of my back, the contour of my hip & the arc of my buttocks Your eyes trace down my thighs, now spread & back up, As I bend, & reveal my inner most secrets to you. My sweet opening that promises so much pleasure, Just inches from your lips & your tongue & your pleasure. Slowly I slide to my knees, down on all fours, face to the floor, Inviting you to enter me, visually, take me with your eyes, I turn to meet your groin & I watch with interest, As I play with my ****** at the stirring that may come. I rise up instead, to my knees, cupping my ******* blowing, On my now ***** ******* & my eyes reach yours, And time & space hold for us, as we join together, for a second, Before I lean in, my breath on your cheek & I whisper, That's £20 please.

It's difficult to explain and hard for you to understand, but maybe you'll see. I visually perceive you, I felt a good feeling inside. Like a hope to the mess I go through. You're one of the most infrequent things that can make me endeavor a smile. It takes an abundance amount of energy to even arouse and commence moving. You're my motivation to keep going. I like you for many reasons Immensely colossal and minute. They're amazing because they're amazing to me. I like you not because of your qualities. I like you for the things you do that brings something special to my life. I like you that you care for me and push me to do better. I like you just because I do. Because now In the deepest part of my heart, a place where there was nothing before, there is something now...You

A letter on Why I chose you
Where did it start but by one little cry, one mother's love, one day she will die Trees grace the land, the water at peace Visually astounding, pleasant at ease The lake was open for summer time fun Camp Crystal Lake where it begun A boy and his mother greeted each soul, welcome my friends enjoy it all. The torment started, it lasted all season, they beheaded his mother for all the wrong reasons Emboldened with fury, deep in the lake drowned by cowards, feeling no shame Each year they returned, hearing stories of the camp the man in the mask, machete in hand Not believing the myth, what shadows do lurk no hearts will be pounding, only their blood will spurt Pre-marital *** upstairs in the cabin rolling blunts on couch, look out, he's coming Naked in the shower, Alice did fall, ice pick in hand, no scream or no crawl Squeezing your eyes out or smashing your face Ask all of the counselors at Camp Crystal Lake One hundred and fifty more victims will fall This is my place, you are not welcome at all Mother, I love you, through all of the pain Hide behind my mask, my machete does reign.

My insatiable desire
My heart is pumping So fast you can visually see my chest thumping The only sound I hear is a heart beat Lately I haven't been able to eat Uncontrollable shaking Rude awakenings Uncomfortable thoughts Distraughts Staying up late caused by PTSD I am trying to get better, can’t you see? I try to fight the battles that go off in my head Late at night, before I go to bed I try to keep moving forward and never look back Wait, I feel like I’m having a heart attack

Sonnet about My Anxiety
House party no contact No glasses no lenses Isolation got no facts Rich in hope like them benz's Old as **** like a bold fax Reminiscin past tenses Action done by the fences Have I come I to my senses? Need to know, ask for a census Need my own vote call for elections Lowkey mind-broke, I need a pension Need to think about all this affection **** World cold stone cold Was told It would be like this Aint listened to them so I fold Now I see myself down this own road. The me everybody used to see, erode The me anybody could be, be sold Sadness pull up to my corners, be shown The one who blew y'all away be blown Everybody leavin faster than I can say hello People in this world so shaky like a tremolo. People don't come and go no more. You just save up and they go forth. At least that's my reality Maybe I am insanity No sleep till 2 am You see it visually Can't rest till these thoughts are at ease. Life fallin faster than dominos This time aint as good as pizza Not even close rate negative 10 toes No feelings like terminator hasta la vista. Seen a lot like a barista More people snakes than cheetah's Venomous like cobras. Sad **** I got into. Me, myself and my sorry ***

Hasta la Vista
Some say that it is unfair. Unfair for the cosmic intoxication that I can feel. Unfair for the ability to obliterate my surroundings and sink into her exhilarating aura. The power to visually experience instrumental weightlessness, an exuberant eruption of colourful lush masquerading the sky, the fixative pulse attached to her heart. Floating above the universe and holding on to all the stars as I escape in her smile. Some say that it is unfair.

It was a dreamer's day that spun me visually undone in cloudless skies of wild blue, beneath a basking sun I drove the mountain road, where flowers bloom wildly to the sky lupines, lilies, of twinkling starry hills tallest summer grass, wildflower entwined with deer to rob such beauty blind with an other worldly view, I climbed and climbed leaving all darkened, lowly thoughts so blotted from my mind

Agony of the fantasy, so lazily, with no probability the ecstasy so randomly seen with eyes of atrophy my heart beats so rapidly for the sake of catastrophe so i gallantly step on the travesty of the compatibility i casually see my casualty through eyes of calamity searching so actively for a canopy of rationality my mind thinks abnormality is better than conformity actuality meets versatility or circumstantial amity thinking elaborately not organically, of reality a tapestry so naturally put together differently visually vivid quality is a visible consistency no commonality,  critically crushed by normality

A Theater Of Skin
Kindred Spirit (Ode an angel) Your anatomy is an atom in it's purest form if I am your moon you are my sun, unequivocally you are my all. The sole of you feet drag sand from other beaches I am the the owner of an amputated spirit that you mend with broken kisses. My kindred spirit. Idealistically, the being made from the same mold when I contemplate you visually leaves no doubt in my soul. Physically, lyrically, metaphorically speaking. The Caribbean reflects on your face when sun hits it giving your Cinnamon complexion a whole new meaning. My kindred love. I am humbled to you have you whole and you are an angel sans the halo and your smile makes God himself blush. You are definitely not of this world and warmth of your body surpasses that of the Equator when I am your scorching fire you are my log. My kindred soul. Your heart is bigger than everything that is and I would gladly spend the rest of my life in your lips undoubtedly, mathematically an infinity will be it. Because you are the cure to my incurable illness everything that I wanted, my Earth, my Sun, my all my kindred spirit.

Visually Effective
Jew harp, Plath hearted, dream seamstress who sits in the dark. Who made me live here. In a small room inside my head, little dictator and I lit this place with music, just for you Where all sounds but songs are dead-headed Just before they bloom. Totalitarian angel, rage-filled fragile smoke who censored my tower of Babel. Who tamed my very rivers of song to breathe the moon-tones as vapor, until as a sun you’d rise to scar these rivers, every single one wherever you find them, with your face. No matter how they run. Paranoid animal with an understandable aversion to caress and kinetic poetry. Damsel who births her own dragons like the fertility of hell, again and again. Life and love belong to the monsters the monsters you make of them but all of them I’d befriend. and I wonder. I could chew my pen hand off snared coyote. I could swallow my tongue dancing to dead note barks. I could visually inhale that sun. Take in all I can. To get the eyelid ink spots. The branded silhouettes busying my eyes as I sleep each night as I sleep. Without this allergy to identity you could turn this world backwards in me. That hell of a snow-globe you hold if only you knew what kind of world you controlled.

I forgot love is a verb; Prove your words with the weight of your hands I know from experience how heavy letters can line up to be Now show me how love acts while it is silent How resilient it can be when no one is listening Trust me I will hear the sound of your trials and errors The gavel will strike shaking my heart Forget butterflies Seeing is believing Says the visually impaired young lady of a poet But if you allow my hands to trace your body of Braille Maybe I will see the weight of your words And feel your love becoming

Love is a verb;
A consequence to squeeze off a weapon filled with hollow tips to contradict a slaughter with emotion such a ***** moment . Now your in juvenile reminiscing 25 to life ***** no parole, no ******* In notebooks a story written visually writing down things that's been a bad decision showing physical entities. That ***** you shot last night a bad sight you might catch a double charge cause his wife ain't holding back. It gets to that trying to control a group filled with misfits trying hit **** but you played yourself Mr. Dickens.

Awakening to the infinite of every possibilities end All the stories that ever could be told Are accessed once again Detached from the material Suddenly the imagination roars Aequo animo, stillness in the ken Every lifetime in the nowevermore accounted Visually, without eyes, the plots are traced Like wind-borne dandelions in the cosmic meadow Innumerable beauty, intricate as lace Understanding George Lucas And the Galaxy Far Far Away Imagination plays it out A second’s eon burning mind forged in sacred space Traveler of the spirit Unraveling the theory of strings The Book of Life within us all doppia elica Split the Stream Opening up all channels Realities manifesting within the folds Of Time’s hidden fore-edge paintings Smiling at the Bold Honoring the awareness of the peaceful seeker Before deeper slumber takes hold One toe before the dream door There are no walls There is no floor

There's all this talk around me about some profound we that's never found me They talking a collective we? One agreed on collectively but conveniently and continuously minus me Is it the me, myself and I type we? Cause defining a trinity might not unveil anything holy Or could they be referring to the we that turns to just me when things get a little bit heavy? That kind of we? Maybe they mean the we I'm supposed to automatically call family Even though history will show them as a two faced enemy Both ones I've picked or have befriended me, eventually it's contempathy from a frienemy An uninterested we that hardly reciprocates the love that's expected to freely flow from me blindly What baffles me still is this bloodline we that aren't even aware of me Or they are aware just unwilling to add me to their we Coldly my psyche reminds me, "you're nobody's somebody buddy, sorry." Personally, I say let 'em swing from their positions above and beside me on the family tree Unfortunately they will always be a part of the conversation when discussing this we The good, the bad and the ugly represented by said we but projected on me Now listen closely, I claim to have came to this conclusion organically There is no we, only me Nonsense spewed when angry but the me I try to hide visually, the one projecting he doesn't need a we Cries out for somebody when times get lonely, lies and said I'm my only company Cause I can not see the we that is meant to be, the we I thought was only a dream of a faded childhood memory It's not only right in front of me but all around me and already a part of me I had no idea this door even had a handle for entry with a keyhole much less a key Apparently it was the skeleton type and had to be pulled out of me Reality blends with fantasy in the best way, what else is there to say?

ODE TO LIMA BEANS (revised) A Reader Participation Poem
Flowers shot in the dark like hearts shot through with darts Clotting blood in the voice box Time moving slow as the clock tick tocks And more bricks are laid Between me and God Children smearing on war-paint Grandmas spitting against the devil's taint Broken churches, corpse of the saint Images listless and visually meaningless In a long array of destructive days As more bricks are laid Between me and God Overlarge toads bellow in the park Green slimy beings croaking insults in the dark What they're singing has meaning and the meaning is stark Rhythmic insults haunting the night like the bark Bark, bark of a wolf seeking prey As more bricks are laid Between me and God A murderous man has a knife and he stabs A touring killer with no remorse as he jabs, Jabs, jabs whilst their blood coats the floor Serial killer with an unquenchable need for more Though the police are paid The case runs cold More bricks are laid Between me and God Chanting children there, with the devil's eyes Urchins that smell fear, young weavers of lies They encircle a dog and they throw it with stones A cold-blooded giggle surrounds the dog's imploring moans Little demons are made And more bricks are laid Between me and God Are you friend or foe Rattlesnake or doe In the night or day Do you fight or pray? Curse or hymn Hate or love Does it differ? As more bricks are laid Between me and God.

Bricks Are Laid Between Me and God
It's been one week, since I told you, nothing of importance. But one week, since you told me, anything, at all. How soon I forget, what it's like, not to be, at a person's disposal. How quickly I remember, that remembering is, a bother. Easy folk enjoy easy listening. A magnet that draws sound. Vibrations of different magnitudes. But visually, all the same: On a large enough body; what proceeds: A ripple on water's edge. Beauties and questions evoked. Memories that hold vehemence. Open ears that trickle red. An eye for an eye. A tooth for a tooth. A *** for a *** Sour taste, before I spit. After all that said, so it goes: She is left feeling discontent, because her friend left her behind. A friendship no longer pragmatic, left her detached and unkind. After one move against her, inadvertently made her the bad guy. Assimilated ignorance was transferred, leaving her with raging eyes. Now a maniac, but once shy. It started the day she was betrayed, and her friend left without goodbye. Friendship turned into a frivolous demise. She never thought of compromise. She will always be left on her own will. Only living each day with empty glare. While she sits cynically by her window sill. Reliving old days, and perfecting her stare. It's been one week, since I told myself, nothing of importance. But one week, since I've asked questions, and have realized that, in your twenties, you are partial to saying 'No.' Implicit No, god-forbid a subtle yes. You know yourself. You want to know yourself. You hope that you know yourself. And, In the scheme of it all, the ***** shopping mall, the empty alleyways, **** and trash, looking down at laced shoes, transcends society's social boundaries. Those little moments at the end of the day, that make you smile, are the reason you should not become frustrated. It would be the same, as letting a long car ride ruin a vacation. Thinking short-termed has never led to outstanding goals, only temporary satisfaction. Life is short, but it is long enough to learn how to pick battles. There are far more important things to worry about, than ill intent with loved ones, or even strangers. If someone steps on your shoes, let it go. Use that frustration to better yourself, and when you can, buy better shoes, and walk a mile in them.
