You are beautiful
Inside and out
Don't let the fear get you
Don't give it clout
Forget about the Darkness
That Abyss that keeps you down
Forget about the bad memories
That only serve the Demon Realm

Shiny and beautiful and new

Your broken pieces
Keep making me bleed
Every time I show you kindness
You act like you don't need it
And the blood that is spilled
Even if it's unseen and unheard
Still breaks my heart each time...

Notes on jailbreakOk, there’s no jailbreak.
Make room for my innocent alter ego,
because there’s nothing to rebel against.
There are zero classes in my nascent,
year-long, Harvard master’s degree.
They call it ‘self directed study’
and like rockets have stages,
I’ll have ‘self paced modules.’
Am I suddenly at Oxford University?
They’re quite famous for that (no formal classes).
Or am I suddenly grown up and...

A A R O H IArms like tiny windmills spin through morning air.
Aiming, she builds pathways?deep within her mind.
Another swing flows onward like waves upon the shore.
Awakening intention burns?as neural roads unwind.
Reaching past reflexes like butterflies from cocoons.
Rhythmic movements carve?the skills she'll always find.
Object permanence sparkles bright like diamonds in her sight.
Orchestrating muscles smooth,?her future self designed.
Hand-eye coordination weaves like...

While The Sky Still BurnsDrink deep the wine of the waking sun—
Its golden breath spills over trembling hills,
And morning, that fragile and flaring drum,
Beats wild against time’s shrinking quills.
The hour is ripe with unsung fire,
A tapestry woven from wind and flame.
Step out — no fear, no false desire —
The world does not wait, nor call your name.
The robin’s hymn...

Damaged, Once Dismayed
Damaged, once dismayed
they return to the fray
Beaten down by the grind
they can’t leave behind
Won’t they shrug off their wounds
shake off the gloom

WE SURVIVALS OF THE FITTESTAs if sage raccoons,
Let’s survive and overcome
We’ve out-battled worse:
Slavery, denied voting,
And days of the hooded clan:-
Let’s not be dismayed,
Ancestors did more with less,
Sojourning onward;
Leaving us with more courage,
And less to be overcome:-
Time to get it on,
Justice can’t be blind,
Nor we, impotent;
Let’s get to overcoming
Today’s political strife:-
Let’s get together,
Irrespective of the hue;
Time’s waiting on us:-
Let us...

For di darkness we doe sleep;
Wen di moon don risen;

There’s no reason to rise;

Never againNever again
Run away from danger
Oh you man of value
Listen to the call of nature
It holds a destiny for everyone
It will show you the way out
From a Trapped world
Hold on to your pains
Keep your light on
Remember
No one is coming to save you
From a dying world...

Don't Worry About the Small ThingsDon’t Worry About The Small Things
Life is too short to worry.
Burdens are exhausting.
Always stressed.
Water under the bridge.
We all have problems.
We are consumed.
Life can be overwhelming.
Even the small things.
Not knowing.
Leave your worries behind.
Do you trust in him?
Do you ever look above?
Sometimes, wonder.
We...

Oddly Enough
"Go along to get along" a wise man he once said
(altho' I don't concur)
but it occurred to me
neither follower nor leader be if you want to get ahead
and if the herd you stroll behind please do consider the view
(but not too closely)
yet what is worse yes you may curse
that which you step into
some believe the...
