They say a picture Is worth a 1000 words?
A picture is multiple complex ideas that can be conveyed by single still images,
However, a picture does not capture someone's inner essence or uncover ones hidden encryptions, it has limits.
Like I cannot smell your scent through a still image, or see that glint, that sparkle in your eyes,
It doesn't talk to me like you did, or laugh with me like you did, or even at me like you did, many times,
I can't hear your voice through a picture, it's just pixelated colour of memories, good, old, past, times,
But it doesn't capture a true uninstructed smile you'd give a real smile from ear to ear from time to time,
It doesn't capture the little unprovoked annoyingly annoying things you'd do little things that just made you, you
A picture may well be worth 1000 wonderouse words but I'd trade every single one to see you the whole of you.
Even if it was for just one last time, and I'd snap a selfie still because if I can't have you a picture will just have to do.

I'll be shouting "Enu enu",
They be shouting "here he goes again"
Laying my lines
My verses be like lay lines
Providing energy,
Words sound like curses
when you read them backwards,
Now rewind that; repeat my words!
Let them play in your head
Feel them in your heart,
Hymns Like a lullaby
Putting you to sleep.
Burning notes I hate paper!
saving notes i love money,
Rearranging numerals from levels
Decoding messages,
Encryptions so complicated
I can't put them in words!
Rather hierarchical form
From fall to the rise, To the fall again!
The ups and downs
Crooked is how it be,
Screams from below
Trumpets blow from up above!
The great tournament
I wonder which side will win?
While in earth: deep in the jungle
trapped in a cage,
transferred from all over the equator
My talent as amusement,
can any one free me from this circus
A clown all dressed up!
Another beautiful day at the theme park
Roller-coaster ride the fast lane I can't comprehend,

CRAZY QUILT MADNESS
crazy quilt madness,
sewn onto muslin squares.
nothing square, about these cool croppings.
left over scraps become something unique -
beautiful, with buttons and floral encryptions -
forget me - knots.
crazy quilt madness,
my life’s serene lift of lived-in patterns,
adventurous ascents onto glaciers and mountains,
descending waterfalls and into voluptuous valleys.
crazy quilt madness
of family sorrows, and peeks,
weaving in and out of all its metes.
a grand landscape of life well-lived.
crazy quilt madness:
join the therapy group.
cut into the cathartic cloth.
snip away and sew, yourself,
into the freedom of frenetic fancy.
leave behind the perfect squares,
for the perfect lives,
in the perfectly square, cookie cutter log cabins,
and join me in wild despair,
picking juicy berries of lonely snippets
for a “berry” good time under the moon of
crazy quilt madness.

Long have I thought
"Where am I really from?"
And long was I taught
That I was just one of some
My genes make me a mutt
but my source gives me pedigree
The cloth from which I'm cut
Was sewn amidst the heavenly
Irish, Spanish, and Welsh
Are just descriptions
Of this rented thing I call my "self"
At times, they're even encryptions

write write, write
the night falls quick under my pen tip, shading
silhouettes behind a cherry moon
fading
into the blackness behind barricades built by biological beings
these extraterrestrial creatures are cosmic craftsman creeping, into
seeping
each letter and rhyme scheme between words breathing
the meaning of life repeating
songs sung by astronauts at light speed eating
just for the taste, tasting words while I'm reading
evolutionary styles and filing them in succeeding
order so I can find the truest of life's meaning
like seeing yourself in the mirror while your peeing
this world is twisted
filled with mischievous miscreants who misinterpret the mixed intent
we all share with each other, it's instant
in the blink of an eye the image
of an eagle in prison penetrating pyramids perpendicular to wisdom
circulates a hazy vision through smokey thoughts and encryptions
so complex Russian engineers couldn't dismantle the system
Write, write, write

puzzles puzzles
they write in rhyme
encrypted messages
poisoned in hate
guesses in the dark
surmising
unable to say the truth
denying
hiding
play nice
yet still
there is the knife
Friendship taken for more
what awful gore
innuendos galore
the truth is out
read the encryptions
read the lines
following suit
following suit
this message
will self destruct

Do you believe in Fairytales, Myths and fables?
From David and Goliath too the Knights of the round table
Dungeons, Dragons,Vampires and the troll
Ancient encryptions written in Scrolls
All of which heighten the imagination
Leading too characters of Human creation
Spoken through the years in many versions
Magical tales from countless excursions
To sit and wonder if these tales had not been spoken
These mysterious creatures may not have woken
I for one am thankful that I have heard
To which i owe these written words

reading through the lines
my eyes look for encryptions
of love in death throes
delight's desire
blinds the wisdom of the heart
to decipher truth
pain has different shades
reading words no longer true
excruciating...

Writings and encryptions all around
Walls calling public lost and found
Enjoy a ride to a thoughtful write
People take a break for an inner sight
Come on! Come on! Have a glance
Life is giving a happy sailing chance
Price is praise for the words not sold
Open for all…children, young or old
Tick tock tick tock calling the clock
All welcomed…happy or in shock
Read and speak up your heart out
Leave all confusion or state of doubt
Re-remember the basics of happy life
Walk in and indulge in a new sale rife
Sail on sale!
Rush on trail!

encryptions, on writing and words,
Form: Couplet
Do mental somersaults and backflips to establish a message
Invisible thoughts of madness rebuilt no blemish the wreckage
And this impression of subconscious stability holds many debts
So aggressions like monstrous in a degree to pay respects
Removing pain built partitions without the builders permission
Recreating brains dimensions now more sculptured the decisions
Verbally breaking down the encryptions of the mind
Purposelly making sounds for descriptions to the blind
Trying to humbly bend over backwards let fly not innocence captured
Supplying calmly hand when their awkwards confidence easily fractured
Instantly universalise languages throughtout cities, villages and any mountain range
Mentally solidify the dangerous so they physically make the boldest change
If I could artistically revitalise this world of woe
The colors would stay but division would go
When my brush touches canvas there'd be words such as these
When these seeds dust the planet there'll be better trees

Infiltrate my mind
Permeate my reason
Make me lose all self-control
Commit lyrical treason
Enter my hidden chambers
Decipher the encryptions on my walls
Manipulate my thoughts
Make my rationality fall
Breach my comprehension
Complicate my conception
Intrude on my insight
Invade my perception
Penetrate my mental
Boldly state your claim
Ignite my intellect
Watch it burst into flames
