ME WORDS

Absent minded prophecy
Beating in my chest
Writing aching hand
Ragged manifest

Twisted words they come
Creeping down my arm
Scrawling jotty letters
Quickly taking form

Coming from the deep
Scrambling into sight
Ambling into place
Tetris-angled light

Ink meeting paper
Passion flutter free
Out in the open
Absolutely me

BLUES

I SING THE BLUES
BETWEEN SHOCKS DOWN
MY SPINAL CORD.
I TEND THE BEAT,
KEEPING AT BAY
MY DEMON SWORD.
I LEARN THE STEPS
AFTER BUGS ROT
MY DANCING HOLE.
I KNOW THE SONG,
NAMING IT WELL;
MY DOUBLE SOUL.

CAPTURE

Heart's eyes are crying.
Seeing pain reflect off flesh.
Salty sinew tomb.

TIMES

sometimes i fly
else i'm falling
it is just hard
finding the strength
but i prevail
my soul intact
slowly changing
times to always

TANGLED SUNNY

Hear my tangled insides erupt
onto ash-free
ears.
Tainted belly of crier's past
rending acid
tears.
Dance around mottled cricket chirps
deep beneath the
beat.
Colored iris and brow be wet
surging through the
heat.
Wide scream at clouded frailties
over mountain-
tops.
Solar melt disdain into pools
stringing timid
drops.
Mask the enduring up and down
joyous end to
come.
Make this growth a sunny soul one
anything but
numb.

BANE BEARINGS

brood upon this changed
                                      swimming sphere
the knowledge: the pain
                                      narrowing near
inhale once towards
                                      yearning year
eternally spend
                                      holding here
teach to refrain from
                                      swerving steer
cleverly disguised
                                      vaulting veer
be faithful into
                                      etching ear
don't fall for sneak-ish
                                      tainting tear
weigh the two as gold
                                      cutting clear
sharpen your teeth for
                                      biting blear
prepare the cargo
                                      dropping drear
ready the troops for
                                      fighting fear
joyous, wear epic
                                      jarring jeer
downshift in always
                                      guarding gear
arm rugged hands with
                                      slicing spear
patient and step sure
                                      tipping tier
up high see its scourge
                                      shining sheer
eyes sharp need avoid
                                      masking mirror

CHAKROMATIC

Sometimes i sense color
dark purple swells
dilating all over
a crowned head
colored hair flow
deep amethyst atop
like jewels
bold lilac waves
undulating into
God spirit.

Sometimes i see color
bright cobalt rings
entering an iris
showing self
a true mirror
and sapphire reflection
to realize
gleam indigo
vivid intuitions
to study.

Sometimes i speak color
mouthy azure
careening out of lips
telling speak
words of gem fires
glowing ultramarine
to express
bluish tongue-scape
always keeping alive
hope to trust.

Sometimes i pulse color
beating in green
inside the core abyss
heart whispers
throbbing honor
in emerald sinew
causing love
tempus vert sway
creating infinite
acceptance.

Sometimes i know color
yellow ego
coming from the belly
depicts age
call it wisdom
shiny amber resin
intellect
saffron grey-matter
ordering up savvy
confidence.

Sometimes i feel color
tethered orange
waiting to emerge on
faithful guts
feelings ablaze
on glossy citrine essence
appear in
apricot nerve
rustling to figure out
emotions.

Sometimes i am color
reddest coxus
sitting down to redeem
old assets
moving machine
building ruby castles
to adorn
scarlet functions
basal and logical
learned lesson.

JUST A SPADE

the bed where i laid
(FALLING)
full of fearful maim
was black, just a spade
(DIGGING)
mostly where he came
progress i have made
(FLEETING)
to lift up my name
is cut with a blade
(SHINING)
nothing left but lame
what price i have paid
(COUNTING)
playing who's to blame
what if i just stayed
(DANCING)
living in a game
i think i might fade
(BURNING)
waning dying flame
failure, i'm afraid
(DAUNTING)
doubts i have to tame
murky mess, i wade
(SLOSHING)
working past the shame

AFRAID

I AM AFRAID I MIGHT FAIL
I AM AFRAID OF HOW TO KEEP MYSELF MOTIVATED
I AM AFRAID THAT DRINK WILL WIN
I AM AFRAID THAT MY RESILLIENCE WILL FADE
I AM AFRAID THAT I WILL BE HOMELESS AGAIN
I AM AFRAID THAT I WILL DISSAPPOINT THE PEOPLE THAT CARE ABOUT ME

I AM AFRAID.

HOPE

A rare find, inside
tied to a raw pole;
round & round it goes.

Hello bloggy blog blog.  I am sitting in the computer room with new resident, Richard.  He is swell.  And I too am doing swell sorta.  I gotta start going to 5 days a week at second chance in hayward.  it scares me because im afraid i might fail at it.  I just dont know how to keep myself motivated and going.  I am afraid that I will drink.  I am afraid that my resilience will fade.  I am afraid that I'll be homeless again.  I am afraid that I will dissapoint people that care about me.  I am afraid.

DESIRE

You unfold, flower
Halting my unabashed breath
Willing intense fire

Infinite bonding
Careening off the edges
Hanging strong wire

Truthful intimate
Tangled outside melts away
Never to tire

Burning in my soul
Surging through my pulsing veins
Red throbs inspre

TETHERED STRENGTH

I hate the straps
that hold me in
they get in the way
like liquid sin

Monster red tape
that sticks to me
it has no give
to let me flee

Icky tight bonds
that rule my life
I grasp at strings
nothing but strife

I loathe the rope
that ties me down
cinching my breath
furrowed deep frown

Dig for the strrength
I know is there
fight the tether
release the snare

I burn the straps
that hold me in
feel the mad rush
of cooling skin

Tear the red tape
that sticks to me
I shred the strips
to set me free

Cut through the bonds
that rule my life
suck in the air
wielding sweet knife

Untie the rope
that ties me down
I see the light
I wear the crown

I found the strength
I knew was there
relieving smile
my world is fair

REBECCA'S SONG

Sing the song of numbers with Rebecca
and you can solve the complete jigsaw.
Anyone might see her as strictly numerical,
but she can be seen as super lyrical.
the formula for her musical math
is complex, but just follow the path.
Hear the square root of her motives steadfast,
add a beating heart sympathetically vast.
Multiply by her engaging eyes,
to the power of n, melodiously wise.
Subtract anything petty or vile,
the data croons with her gentle smile.
We've just proved that a person so modest
can explode your eardrums to rest.
You just have to really listen
to the sweet aria, end function.

FLUX

bide the molten energies that misguide

inside are the ancient flows that divide

eyed evil, highly romanced suicide

collide with the alluring, bitter cyanide

chide the maddening stream, Jekyll & Hyde

subside & ignore angular riptide

glide along the flight pattern rarefied

with stride, combat the fleeing underside

ride the positive flux, raw & open-eyed

backslide out the negative planet wide

slide just a bit, it's ok, be tongue-tied

confide with electric preoccupied
