My turn
I’m going to
spin the bottle
no one ever even noticed me
in High School
our first kiss
needs to be perfect
you don’t get a redo

obsession …
— envy us
in the way they stay upsetting
themselves.

you’re setting yourself up for failure

possible optimism

two glasses
my other, half
fully blurry vision
they’re prescription
usually she has to squint
and hadn’t felt the planets tilt till now

in pursuit of riches
snapped twigs, and
perseverance
exhausted —
all my resources …
gone,
in the heat of the moment.

thug poetry

40 ounces of malt liquor
Olde English and calligraphy

take your shoes off at the door

I’ll take your coat

your hair smells refreshened
from the ozone
and
remnants of soap
lathered and rinsed out
in the rain shower

attacking my integrity

questioning… me

myself,

I, was taught there was no such thing as a stupid question

second guessing…

why?

you were impolite.

looking for answers in an inner view

A burnout —
driven to madness

What a catastrophe!

dimensional
cellular division
the genomic sequence

time is a light matrix
encoded in
0’s & 1’s
goes on forever …
and, in that order
10, 9.

A singularity
and absolute zero

the big freeze or heat death

he said no one can help us
when, asking the universe
for answers

what, times any number
… is nothing other than zero

This tidal,
ebb and flow
of our own
mixed feelings
as a solution,
salted tears …
we are 60% water

these waves of emotion

We shouldn’t be embarrassed
to talk
…. about our problems
to a therapist

always looking at me, before you speak

I’m here for —You
if ever
you feel the need to talk about anything.

Paralyzed
like a spider
checking in on his victim
tied up, entangled …
makes me think
of a bad dream
worsened
the familiar feeling of
waking up to the news of death

They say he has his way with the ladies
the bruiser at the door
thought to himself
hey, let’s not get carried away

what a light weight ...
they had been seen leaving together
after a fight—being broken up
over a year at least

she said to all her girlfriends
“it was like I was blinking
then my eyes rolled back
into my head and everything went black”

intermingling with a demon in the flesh
you realize your life was a lie
and your soul suffers in hell
for what feels like an eternal
date with death

A child
talking black

acting out of character
arguing about upbringing
taken back
some things are best left unsaid…

prophesied
the premonitions
foreshadow people
who live lives with
similarities parallel to our very own

when your third eye intakes light
and all the shades disappear in the night
their life is vibrant
the dream seen as an auric phenomenon
it’s either that
Or, are you completely isolated
in the back of the black of your eyelids

see an oracle or dream interpreter,

smoking barrels
in talks —about the past
around the campfire

you could cut the tension with a knife

the only thing needed is a good sense of humor

And,
…try not to lose your self along the way

the buddy system
marching—
side by side
do you trust that man with your life?
willing to take a bullet for them?
behind every great man is a great woman…

This is a dream full of desires,
and I like to think
when we go to sleep eternally

our soul
will not be without
the rest in heaven.

what I say goes —
if I say so -
don’t allow an application to control anything
they need permission in these settings
and turn down your background music
“for what?”
if I’m going to green light your on screen time

we cannot have anyone getting an extreme close up
portray a picture perfect image

believe me...

flash forward,
when you’re using the front camera shutter you’ll see

my love letter
stamped with a pair of pressed lips
licked,
then sealed with a kiss

the silent observer.
waiting for his moment
with the present

trying quietly not to mouth breathe aloud
smothered in your undergarments

while fire from the two flames
arose
on a magic candle
over and over

like a brazier come undone

star dust -
quantum particles —

and, strings ...
from the fabric of the universe

ashes to ashes,
A bindi
black glasses,
fragmented obsidian
and, an asteroid belt

A Shero
— deified
hereafter she received
Saturn’s ring.

cut from a different cloth
dyed in the wool you pulled over your eyes

you made your bed now lie on it
tomorrow
is a wonderful day to die innit

I dress my wounds
and wear my heart on my sleeve
with cuff links & fingers crossed

pack your bags
and
go get ready

to walk the walk
through the traffic
of differing directions
wave down the runway
and remember…
never, look back

With every year's end - the advent marks the start of a new day,
as human kind we’re always growing wiser, furthermore, fully face to face with the task of taking baby steps toward a straight forward path —
It’s time to take a stand…
(With that being said: we really need to enjoy such a joyous occasion)
In an effort to boost morale; International Women’s Day should pronounce a two part holiday...
