The Agony of Math

Math 

Is a problem

That is here to stay

It will never go away

Like a vermin's ugly kin, it grows

Multiplies and divides into more nasty vermin

Never seeming to disappear

As log as civilization is here

Math

As the days grow

Math will cause many tears to shed

Not only this...

Math will waste lead

Math is like a bad lover

That can never be fed 

Never satisfied nor pleased

No amount of diamond rings sold, classes or tutors paid

Nothing can please this terrible monster

The Agony of Math

Playing With Love

Playing is fun
Exciting, desirable, leisurely

I learned years ago that
Playing with love is a dangerous pastime 

Once it finds you
Love is no longer a game

Playing with love was like
A cat and mouse game

Suddenly- it is caught by surprise

Something unexpected

A mystery 
A lingering

It simmers and never leaves

Six years have passed 

What was a game
Turned out to be something else

It waits in the back of my mind

Like a sweet and sour warhead candy
Leaving me undeniably wanting more 

And all I ever wanted was to play

It's time to rearrange the pieces 
And put the board back in the box

Love is not a little sweet thing to nibble on 

Love is not a game to set up and to break the rules

Love isn't meant to be played like a game

Love inspires truth

Lawyer's Inferno

Without morale
The words of the monster are as shaky 
Unstable, like the north winds


The demons and imagined stories they tell 
Haunt and reek 
Through their pores and tacky suits

Like a hooker, 
They are paid to please, persuade
Wine and dining with other dirty animals

While they are busy swallowing the last of their morale
They line their wallets 
With the latest lie, the latest crime

Worse than the act itself
They are the legal accomplinces
Of rapists murders con artists

While their souls melt away in their dirty coffins 
Up in the high rises in the shiny offices in downtown
The pit of hell grows deeper 

Even the devil himself
With his pitchfork of painful pleasure
Wouldn't want to dirty the prongs

Like a rotting piece of dog poop
On the street corner
They absorb the filth around them

Unlike the supple soil of a garden
A colorful, flourishing nursery
Growing life, bringing joy and beauty, to the senses

These eyesores, like dog vomit, sit in the courts
Little annoying flies- the followers, magnets of illusions- circle around these pieces of poop
As their stench grows and reeks of havoc and lies

They wear Bullsheit as their cheap body spray,
A pathetic excuse 
A waste of breath

Not even worthy as the shadow of Satan's tail
In the inferno of the lawless
There are no shadows

Like their absent hearts
The material of their soul 
Is woven with pure darkness




viva la Shakespeare

Monet

Art like Monet 
It is like an alternate reality
Soft, vivid full of pureness
Unlike harsh reality
Raw and rough around the edges
Hustling for the next desire
Monet simply lies there
In its purest form
Of Watercolor Aesthetics
The waves of the water he paints
Immerses my eyes with clouds of subtle feeling
A feeling that is smoother than reality
Captured in a stroke 
The paint on the grand easel 
Monet

Reminders of Love

Everything I saw reminded me of you
No matter where I went
A piece of memory was there waiting
Glaring at me 
I know I scared you off
And I was confused
Was it so much to handle
That I you were the one I was waiting for??

Simply Trust

born again
I was scared 
my insides were shaking
my heart was numb
every moment, 
every event that passed through my eyes
what can I say?
this was something to turn to
from the life I've known before
God has saved me again and again
from my idiot ways
my closed ears
now all that I must do is 
simply trust
