she was the victim of amplified suicide
what does that mean? I asked Detective McBride
She tried to hang herself first, he rapidly replied
But the knot in the rope had become untied
She took fifty-nine pills from a bottle
which explains why her skin has a bit of a mottle
she finally crashed her caddy into a bridge
in the next county over, by Strawberry ridge
How do you know it wasn’t an accident? I dared to ask.
The sixty-two-page suicide note next to her aluminum flask.
amplified suicide was a strange and new term to me.
But now a concept that I finally could see.

The water is still
Double images are seen
Reflections are bright
This memory amplified
from lights shining in the night

MUSIC MAKES GREAT TIMES GREAT
AND MAKES BAD TIMES MISERABLE
IT CREATES CONVERSATIONS
AND CAUSES PEOPLE TO DIVIDE
IT MEANS DIFFERENT THINGS TO PEOPLE
AT THE SAME TIME
IN APPRECIATION IT IS ADMIRED
THEIR ARE SOME TO USE MUSIC TO SPEAK
TO THE MOMENT WHICH SOMETHING HAPPENED.
SOME BELIEVE MUSIC CAN CAUSE SAVAGE SOULS TO CALM
AND MUSIC CAN CAUSE MEN TO BE MADE MAD
IT IS EXPRESSIVE BY THE ARTIST
AND USED TO CONVEY AS FANS OF THE SONG
ONE MIGHT LIKE THE MUSIC OF THE SINGER
AND NOT LIKE THE ARTIST
OR VISE VERSA
SAY THE LYRICS SPEAK THEM AND LET
THE MUSICIAN FIND THE NICHE
OR DEBATE THE LYRICS AND CAUSE
FOLK TO FIND YOU MAD BY
THE WORDS OF AN ARTIST
CHANGE THE LYRICS TO SUIT YOUR PERSON,
AND MAKE THEM SWEET AND PRECISE
RIGHT FOR THE OCCASION
RIGHT TO BE ADMIRED AND LOVED.
SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE ONE WOULD SAY
SOMETHING FOR EVERY OCCASION
IN HABIT OF BEING SATISFIED AND
POSITIONED TO BE HEARD
THE RIGHT SONG WITH THE RIGHT WORDS
CAN TRANSCEND EVERY GENRE TO BECOME
RIGHT FOR ALL PEOPLE AT ONE TIME
SOME THING UNILATERALLY RIGHT!

When young we yearn to break the rules,
But when the songs all sung are,
The young may think the old are fools--
The old know that the young are.

WORDS DECRIBED THIS
THEY DID NOTHING TO
DETAIL, WHAT THE EYE
REALLY SEE'S
I POSTURED MYSELF TO REDEFINE
EXPERIENCE
I POSTURED MYSELF TO DESCRIBE
WHAT WAS BEFORE ME
IT MAKES EVERYTHING BEFORE IT'S CREATION
INFERIOR
IT'S ARROWS POINT TO ALL DIRECTION
AND THIS ENCOURAGES ALL TO WANT
WISH AND DISCOVER
FOR THE SAKE OF CREATION
IT FILLS CAVITY'S
AND TRENCHES DRY SPACES
IT STANDS STILL
AND GOES PLACES
IT IS TIMELESS
AND EVER GOING
RELENTLESS
AND AWE SHOWING
IT'S AMPLIFIED AND WHISPERED
DIFFERENT AND STRANGE
IT'S RIGHT IN WRONG PLACES
IT WHY THINGS MAKE A CHANGE
IT'S HOW WE WILL DEAL WITH TOMORROW
IT WAS THOUGHT OF YESTERDAY
FROM NOW ON IT SHALL BE SPOKE OF
AS IT WAS HERE ALWAYS

amplified questions
I sit alone atop a mountain
my guitar in hand
peering out over the valley below
beyond green patched rifts
playing in the key of lost dreams
fractured chords out of tune with
decisions in distorted decibels
high volume idiocy wailing
as I telecast amplified questions
which now return to me
in the feedback of my own doing

Tubular turnings. Turnips training. In a circular formation only. Obligations are a given construction to a fistulae pattern. Oh wow the knowledge and secrecy of a bowl of broth. Singing sweetly however the remnants of a sharks dinner are displayed only on a bright canvass. Fishing in a bathroom is best achieved in broad daylight. Great. Orpheus's wisdom. Treading tailed trailers talking. And a fortified iron cobra clock strikes again. Good. Grab an iron then and wave it around. Hahahaha and a cutlet of smiling smoke. Chop chop chop. Hahahaha and a pink oink oink oink *** astronomically z

Hands lay bricks
build cities
drum the table
Feet walk the moon
stumble
and ache all too soon
Mouths mumble
jumbled words
and speak across the world
Men fall down and break
yet make whatever they will
Shall anything be impossible
to this amplified child?
Shall anything be left
when we’ve finished with the world?
Just crumbling concrete monuments
when quietness returns?

here we are
in the confines of nothing
enjoying the beauty of our united accomplishments
the weather does not matter
there are no hints of colds or aches
we are just as free as we can be
about four classic movies and a 90s action flick later,
we remember that it all ends tomorrow
howevernevertheless, there is no need for us to be blue
for you treasure your quality time with me....and i with you
there we go
basking in the glorious entities of everything
evolving in the magnificent creation of our solidified foundation

Amplified beauty characterizes deeply evoked feelings gotten here,
in June's klieg-light,
lighting many nation of plants,
quietly rendering senses towards utopia,
vanquished with xanthophyll.
Yellow zoophytes!!

Women don't like to be boisterous or create attention to themselves,
However, when the male population try to stunt their growth
or treat them as if they are jokes,
The soft feminine ways are cast aside,
so that women can rejuvenate their dignity and pride,
It is the way of the world to treat some women as if they
are third class citizens or air headed vixens,
So, if their voices seem amplified they are just enunciating their
cause,
Our male dominated world doesn't mind belittling them causing
them moments of awkward pauses and revolt,
Yet, when they try to stand up for themselves,
their agressors get shocked and jolted,
exclaiming they are insulted,
It doesn't matter that they try to reduce women
to shrinking violets, so they can maximize their control
as if they were submissive pets.
