Accepting praise - never blame.

DO(D)GE shifts Left - then Right;
Disruptive through winds of change.
It's a dodge all right!

Blue Love
...I don’t know what love is
I’ve become desensitized, I only live in the digital blue world
No love, no woman, nobody, just the virtual life. Best choice
Best choice, this is the protection, the...

My Dreams have always been to travel around the globe.

...in my desolate room
no lights
no music
just anger
disgust
hate
distaste for life
but the joy of living
is only felt
when i kill
and i feel better
i am loved,

Evil
....Evil
A wormy apple bruised
bread crawling with weevils
Mottled black and blue
Essences of evil
Skull and crossbones warn
deadly poisonous gas
Tortured cries and moans
Creepy sutured mask

Facing Life's Crises
...Have we embarked a Ship of Fools
By forsaking the Golden Rule?
And, have we formed a neutral state
Sitting astride the Fence of Fate?
Our devalued civility,
Desensitized humanity,
Deprecated ...

'Chasing Little Joys'
...Title; "Chasing Little Joys"
For quite some time now, I've become desensitized to my challenges
to the reality of my existence.
I've been holding on to any moments of joy that provide relief

This world is backwards

Yes insanity is real
Desensitized from birth
But I can still feel.
You can see with your eyes
But I see with my heart
You tell me to finish
But never allow me to st...

Under the Firmament
...Under the firmament
Vying to escape the dome of purgatory
A trap which seems permanent
Filled with negative energy and pain
Stuck on a plain
That plays tricks on the brain
Driving souls ...

Breaking the Silence
...Like Black-Cats popping on the 4th of July,
shots broke the peace of the Spring afternoon.
Within an instant chaos erupted,
women screaming, people running in every direction,
bodies lying motion...

Desensitized
...I'm used and abused,
Discarded like garbage.
I must be insane.
I'm made to feel like scum,
Boy you do a good job of that.
I live in pain and misery,
Day in and Day out.
I've been betrayed,

I wanted to lay low
Or get recognized
Stormy nights and days with rainbows
Was it all really like what is televised
I think not, but for you and me I wish us the best in...

Desensitized, Until I Met God
...Feeling everything at once,
And nothing at all.
Numb?
Maybe.
Just may be the medications,
My therapist says,
Meditation.
The answer,
The problem?
Is manic depression.
Some say disorder,

A nomad in a dark, desolate land so void of divine light
