Rescue me

In a room full of faces all with nothing 
To say 

Full of anticipation just waiting for a chance to get away

All sat in a circle not talk but in
Silence 

Eye's full of emptiness and a head full 
Of violence
 
Not hearing the words that are coming 
From within 

Just trying to escape the

Premium MemberBody and Soul

Body and Mind give way to the Heart and Soul. 
They let the emotions take over yet remain in control. 
Passion and sentiment now replace logic and reason. 
Interchanging ever so slightly- as if from season to season.

Feelings flow freely, replacing all thought. 
Emotions running wild without fear of being fought. 
The Mind sits back

i hope you never stop singing

a songbird beloved who moves with intention
   will find themselves in times of trouble 
   mother mary on their bustier—
   a sight for those with the privilege to see.

stands on a paddleboard oaring towards me.

embodies a world full of pain in their bones 
   and their muscles

she is alive

limbs like entangled serpents


                an embryonic adult on canvas

                      who escaped a naked bed

Premium MemberA Prisoners Passport

My soul cries out for shores I cannot reach,
My fragile body bars me from the beach.
I dream of London's chimes from Big Ben's face,
And Rome's old Colosseum, lost to time and space.
The world's a book I yearn to read, my dear,
But all its pages are locked away in fear.

I am an Instagram Model

I dress with less for my body flouncing 

My titties jiggle and my ass is bouncing 

I prance around to ring your bell 

And call myself an Instagram “model” 

 

I make up my face and pout my lips 

I put on the music and shake my hips 

I do up my hair with lots

Digging Deep

My dreams are bigger than my talent
The mission warned us against females
Women should be sure 
It was understood that the withdrawal 
from the competition, it is overlooked
 It is morning on a gray day, and mist clings
to our old bodies that smell of time
spent in the underbelly of society 
We lost the cruel war to be the

Alignment

 
 
crown petals unfold for lofty Light
fontanelle gaping softly smile
Centre Point’s hole blazon mile

pineal connects as conical way
to galactic edenic binomial rays
loosens ovuliferous scales honed

thyroid equalises, tongue relaxes
cylinder opens larynx true blue
speech becomes intended hues

heart softens atria, ventricles 
valves linking doors of paradise
protected golden it rhapsodises 

coin-line verticle-horizontal spherical 
solar plexus flowers monumental near
