Death
It seems like someone's always dying;
and the tears start rolling down our faces.
It's either suicide or homicide;
it is inevitably deceiving.
Some people would rather be dead than alive; 
so they take their life and we all cry.
We have been exposed to funerals; 
the closer we are...

Aftermath
Her eyes were crystals, with repetitive inner structures and outer sheet faces. They were made of quartz, of almost pure silica.  
 
Her smile was a star in the farthest galaxy. It was made of combustions of crimson and wild blue yonder. A star...

What We Seek
Mental illness are words people are afraid to speak
When happiness is all we seek

From a place of darkness we rise
Should not come as any surprise

Even when we fumble
Please realize it's just a stumble

Anhedonia is where we're at
Enjoyment is what must begat

Mental illness is not planned
Understanding...

Dear God, I do not ask for health or wealth. People ask you so often that you can't have any left. Give me, God, what else you have. Give me what no-one else asks for. Amen.

When Alex was tasked to pen eight straight A’s for an animate cause

He adjusted the angle arched forth in awe and anticipated attunement 

Ached with attrition and attributed an array afore attaching amends

and then there came upon him
a certain nothingness
sadness and anhedonia have taken over
the latter sounding so godly in vain

the blues have become
a dirty synesthetic cacophonia
with emptiness screaming
a gut wrenching noise

a dagger of unkindness
balances at the fulcrum
the jester in him calls upon crisis
as a turning point
to...

When We Hit Climax
My love, you have been distant and cold

Your demeanor is resistant yet robust

When will your skin feel and your mind unload

When will your eyes open and your veins fill with lust

 

My love, I have been waiting patiently for your signals

You allow this life to...

Gloriously Luxuriating In Eternal Sleep
Gloriously luxuriating in eternal sleep

Forlorn; bereft of golden
(slippered) opportunities I weep;
Three score and four years
replete with mailer daemons,
hence mindset adrip
with self denouncing expletive filled bleep
unwritten expressed recriminations
wielded upon figurative head of wimpy blip;
decades elapsed at light speed clip
as the world turned days of mein kampf

Unfinished portrait
I walked the winding way down your memories.
We live in the age of perpetual documentation - 
a blessing for the socially inept.
Every abstract gives insight,
but I crave the full portrait,
you in your every shade and hue.
I wish to know you better than breathing,
but I fail...

versus being alive 
predicated victory videre licet lunatic
if Trump trumped Kamala Harris
and stole 2024 presidential election,  
(whereat Musk bribed 
significant number of voters
handing out wads of cash)
courtesy underhanded modus operandi
and devious and sinister schemes.

Forlorn; bereft of golden
(slippered) opportunities I weep;

Swaying
"seen" is through notation
more apparent to our senses
more palpable through
 physical sensations.

a modern take on sound
what inspires might to
create

visually represent music
attempt to visualize sound waves
