Me And Others Life's Viewpoint

...The things I observes,
Become the observer and the observed
They become part of my personality
To the eyes of others,
I become the subject and the object
To them comes the subjective or the obje...

Semi-Indulgent Moon Bounce

...I am if not a man of routine  
A glass half full is a still a big spill if it tips
I can't believe you’d let those words slip 
So make like Pluto and demote yourself 
That's only something you'd ...

Teenagehood

...Knick-knacks, bottle caps, pop tabs, and acid
The reflux of my mind of many memories redacted
Connections don't elucidate the fuzzy things that happen

...Words

Are all equal..

Dismissing the

Call to elevate some

Demote others..

Unleashed to

Trick and treat.....

I don't want to turn around
The sense of hate, anger and evilness that fills the room
I'm still, like I am frozen in time 
It gets in my head

May render me maimed
I’ll likely lose grip
Of all that I’ve tamed

I’ll wind up behind 
With weights on my shoes 
Handicapped and blind
There’s too much to lose 

I’ll ne...

He Is More Than Idle

...He is more than idle,
Idleness his Idol;
A sloth without bridle,
Along sidewalks sidle …

Now begun to languish
And had been in Anguish;

Luckily For the Lovelorn

...Luckily for the bereft    			
grieving through darkness alone	
dawn is abundantly deft                          
at its medicinal tone.		 

When a new morning appears,

Though temptations line up in a row 

Pointless, heartless any soul you to hurt
Under no circumstances invective blurt
Because so doing grows...

Tongue Waggers Sent To Coventry

...Tongues loose, tongues in a hangman’s noose
Wag without care to declare nonsense
As wisdom salvaged from the sluice
Where nonsense whacked common sense 

Lost in a sea of error whose terror

...The joy you bring is of amplitude  
You sing the joy to my heart
No melody is merrier than your words
For your words are the sweetest
No heart is so adjacent than yours
You touch me the deepest
