Unsure of Cell or Shore: Version 2
We made our padded rooms,
Trampoline parks for a time,
For bouncing off the walls,
As we crash into the side.
Those clouds our leather breakers,
Eroding rolling rows,
Salty tongues to a gobstopper ball,
Cancelling the storm.
Strapped into a jacket,
A hopping biped fowl,
From pterosaur to Christmas baste
Skin golden crisped to taste.
Thrown off the pier a flip,
Does blind the inner ear,
To up

Bipolar 2
I'm secretly
a genius, trouble
is, I'm the only
one who knows
about it.
I'm much too
shy to show it,
and I'm much
too mad to keep
it constant.
I'm either busy
laying in my bed,
missing out.
Or overworking
myself to the point
of exhaustion.
There's no
in-between.
And that,
my friends,
is

Falun Dafa Will Prevail part 2
Millions of people from China’s homeland
Were shocked and torn that the Great Law was banned
They faithfully and peacefully pleaded for appeal
But Zemin was bound their beliefs he would steal
Great numbers of practitioners held tight to their beliefs
As they were beaten, brainwashed and tortured by police
Their suffering and pain were peacefully endured
The persecutors were baffled; but

Sutra 2 from The Holy Science
“In It (Parambrahma) is the origin of all knowledge and love, the root of all power and joy.”
~ extract from ‘The Holy Science’
Wisdom, love, joy and power,
are boons God does empower,
that we may then feel complete,
from head to toe, bliss replete.
Who’s He who sees through our eyes
and weeps tears when our heart sighs?
Know oh hermit,

Thoughts Running Free 2
a thought of beauty scared away by negative thought
is easily bought as if given free
only to put on hold the bold
a thought so beautiful an angels breathe
could carry it across time
in a gentle rain shower
all living things could then feel its beauty
and be one with this beauty
which might strive to be alive
to share the

GOD'S ASSIGNED ANGEL OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE 2
GOD'S ASSIGNED ANGEL OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE 2
When my soul grew weary, when I felt undone,
You bore my burdens, one by one.
You carried the weight, yet never complained,
For in your heart, God’s love remained.
You’ve tended the garden of our shared years,
Watered with laughter, sunlight, and tears.
And the roots have deepened, firm and true,
Because I have lived

Volcano Run part 2 - The Ride Home
At crack of dawn we headed out
before a cock or rooster crowed
and soon we found our asphalt path;
at home again, upon the road.
That 'greasy spoon' was our last stop,
Where we each tended to our ride;
we filled the tires and topped the gas
before we found our way inside.
Once we were seated I looked up
to see the

Randomness part 2
Ah, that feeling of nothingness, mixed with contentment and this searching feeling; how such a feeling exists can baffle yet also leave this tantalizing desire to be found. It is almost as if I am lost in the shadowy echos of my mind aimlessly wandering around yet simultaneously every so clearly chasing and following in

The Last Five Senses '2
By~Krish
The wind arrived without warning
its cold fingers lifted him
like paper from my hands.
He dissolved,
like ink in water.
The tulips crumbled into ash
that danced away
before it could touch the ground.
The earth tilted beneath me
and I fell.
When my eyes opened,
I was somewhere else.
The sun was too bright,
its heat warped by a crowd
gathered in a trembling circle.
At their center,
a

Unmade - FIRE AND ICE, part 2
Let this not be poetry.
Let this be a reckoning.
(Honest John.)
You are a groomer.
You are a predator in plain clothes.
You are a bastard carved from rot
Too old to claim innocence,
Too vile to fake remorse.
You lusted after what I could’ve had
Twisted jealousy dressed in sickness.
Like David, you lusted after another’s soul
And slaughtered me
While calling it justice.
You tried

A coin gawks at a grand big note - 2
But tell my friend, you must have moved a lot.
Oh sure, I’ve been in a constant journey:
To a beggar for a few biscuits bought,
With a child thrilled as if with a trophy,
On pilgrimage, or in some wishing wells,
In temples, helping with a layman’s faith,
A rupee coin many a tall wall scales,
In constant motion, often out
