sitting in a river of ghosts
watching regrets flow
through the red evening sky
in smoke scented clouds.
the warmth of the air
eclipses the coldness of memories shivering
in the viscosity of the conscious mind.
tidal waves of created illusions
shattered by the power of being;
the dark of the light
lifted by dragonfly wings.

In shadows cast, a darkness does abide,
The spirits trapped, their torment manifest,
Exorcist chants, to banish them outside,
Through ancient rituals, they will be blessed.
The spirits trapped, their torment manifest,
A battle waged 'twixt realms of light and night,
Through ancient rituals, they will be blessed,
With holy words and candles burning bright.
A battle waged 'twixt realms of light and night,
The exorcist's resolve unwavering, strong,
With holy words and candles burning bright,
They seek to banish what's been bound for long.
The exorcist's resolve unwavering, strong,
In shadows cast, a darkness does abide,
They seek to banish what's been bound for long,
In sacred rites, the spirits they'll divide.

He rolled on the ground erratically,
as though his body was filled with
embers. Villagers gathered around him,
some whose mouths were agape.
Another child of the sun
had been accused
of interacting with a water
sprout, a domain which was reserved
only for the gods. The elders had
initially agreed the boy would be excommunicated
deep into the
wilderness, but his mother pleaded,
in the midst of tears. Quitting
exorcism was out of question.

She looks beyond herself
Every chance she gets
Yet he still appears to
The shadows in her soul
She didn’t know evil
Until it touched her
And held her hostage
She feels forgotten
The city weeps not for her
Her family is unreachable
The evil in her soul
Isn’t hers, and was never
She prays for help
O Lord she cries to Him
Please save me for I am lost
I need you to find me
A voice responds and says
Come with me child
Come do this thing
I will walk with you
And she enters into a slumber
Where she shivers and shakes
She quakes and seizes
The evil entangles no more
The Lord smiles as he lets
Her rest and sways her dreams
She sees hope, she feels home
He brought heaven to her
The evil cast out
She is free now
She leaves her home
And never returns
For heaven is on earth
For her to witness
For her to experience
The Lord spake to her
You are saved.

I invented something quite peculiar
Last night
In my lucid dream
My neo commanded my allo-cortex
To prepare allusions to be downloaded
Upon returning to my physical presence
Caught in middle-sleep, guardians of satan
Were mocking the death and resurrection
Of Jesus Christ, shouting and laughingly
Pronouncing God The Father and Jesus
The Son as "the two lunatics"
Every direction I faced, the 'alien race'
Of towering blondes blocked my escape
Knowing I had lucidly dreamt a downloadable
File to be recovered once awake, I summarily
Accomplished this by attaching a small device
To the frontal-lobe side of my skull and
Activated the sensory-absorbing module
Instantly slipping back into my lucid dream
Allowing edits to be re-programmed
I was able to disrupt the satanic bonds
Holding me captive and cast out the
Demons that possessed me
Declaring the Lord Jesus Christ as my
Savior and Ruler of the Light that shall
Set man free!
Once again returning to my physical realm
I was even more determined to
Spread
His
Love
Upon
The World!

Entity within our auric field
Seeks love and light rather than the sword we choose to wield
Judging not we outpour love divine
Cajoling the thought form with God to gently align
Love as the only real vibration
Each lifetron complete on choosing resonation
Yet the choice must be voluntary
Thus love nudges gently in stillness sedentary

I am the smudge in gods artwork
The rip in the wrong place
Step before me
face your choices
kill or turn
because choices i have none
The maniac behind the eyes
Scaring death to death
Brutality shudders below my gaze
Running from birth
Could not fly until i took flight
Shakespeare take a seat
The freaks about to bleat
Turning the mad sane
Use your words and change my shape
List my flaws to prove your cause
Speak, if you can
What are you

What I was yesterday
Today? I no longer am
Realized I was a fool
Had fallen for a scam
The Devil...Deceiver
But God... Not a believer
So where do I fit?
Purgatory isn't my game
How to correct all my misplaced blame?
Look into myself, a gaze into the mirror
The answer came to me
Couldn't be more clear
I used to be good before the world broke me
I cared about humanity
Injustice would provoke me
Like the Grinch my heart grew
Twicefold, threefold
It took loss, to repent
Before my life was just too spent
Eliminate the hate, its a burden too great
The weight can be lifted
Its not my final fate
There are some who won't forgive
Apologize, although i've tried
Some sins can't be forgiven
To them, the old me hasn't died
But I hold no grudge, some fences stay broke
Just hope my brother sees that i've awoke
Becoming the man i'm supposed to be
Too bad it took a tragedy
Taking it day to day
Is now my strategy
Out of the ashes and the tears
I'm now molded a new man
Allow me to prove to the world
I follow a new plan

My little bro has some news
He tells it real slow
Stage 4 in his lungs
Time left he doesn't know
My disbelief, denial, I couldn't face the fact
No way, they're wrong
The world felt like it was gonna crack
Each month it spread, another organ or a bone
Why him? Please God. Leave my bro alone
Watching this disease took me down to my knees
Take me instead I plead, i've always wanted the release
I was the ass who deserved it
Rob was always the better man
I had rebuked God, sold my soul
So I couldn't understand
He's got babies at home who need to have their dad
The ******* I was, self admitting I was bad
The guilt since he died, still brews in my mind
But the despair and grief, it's hard to leave behind
Still to this day, I scream into the sky
Profanity laden, asking why he had to die

Emotionally devoid, love I must avoid
The solitude, left me feeling paranoid
My pity party packed, me against the rest
The narcissism making me believe I was the best
I would attack, give you not a chance for comeback
A young angry black, chewing egos as a snack
Fending off all friendship, I couldn't trust a soul
It was all their fault, I thought
My excuse to fill the hole
The grave that I dug, became so dark and deep
Became impossible to even get to sleep
Selfishness, greed and lack of empathy
Why would I show this world any sympathy?
My mom was a loco, my dad was a no show
Non forgiving, I felt I was owed
For all these years I stifled all tears
Till IT happened. Forced to face all my fears

Between the bullies, and beatings
It left me full retreating
Into madness of mind
And sadness in kind
Revenge and rage, became fully engaged
They hazed, I phased, the boy became enraged
The monster, the madman, Grandaddy BAD I became
From that day on, I was never the same
God became a memory, because he had forsaken me
No one in the world would be mistaking me
For a sucker, if I had to suffer than all would suffer
Soft is for sissies, they would meet no one rougher
I was to conquer and be feared
No one would come near
They didn't listen to the whispers
So they had to face the leers
My baptism a regret, the holy ghost i'd forget
Never again would I relent, GBAD was a Devil sent
The fury within, that was buried within
Unleashed unto the planet, didn't worry about sin
Humanity would pay the cost, no matter what I lost
I finally was in control. The Big Man. The Boss.

Sometimes I still feel like a child
Crying and scared, sucking back snot in bed
Suffering in silence, alone in the dark
Begging and pleading, I was just dead
So many memories repressed, suppressed
Trying, always trying, another try
No one to listen, for who would believe
A child wanted to die
My reality was beyond my thought skill set
Couldn't comprehend or understand why
I wanted to fly, just fly I can never forget
How I felt how I did, I was a kid, why try?
But the pain was full grown,
So I hid what was felt
Leaving the pain unknown
It was so hard, I would pray to God
"Please end this misery i'm in"
Only to awaken in morning, last night was forlorning
Maybe I should just do myself in
But forever the coward, I trudged on
Battling forces I can't control
The black hole in my heart became darker
An inevitable fight for my soul
Was about to become a reality
No one saw the storm that was approaching
The rage was about to brew, and boil over
The dark cloud began rapidly encroaching.....

“It’s hard to eat ****, without having visions,
& when they have eyes for me it’s Heaven.”
~ Allen Ginsberg, “Malest Cornifici Tuo Catullo” (1955)
Begone bland corporate effigy
Woman bearing
Little
Hint of satisfied smile
Thank God
There were no good old days
~ Thanks always returns

A. W. Nutter
Plagued with a cancerous infection
Tempting the spirit, devouring the mind
Experiences dividing the outward reflection
Which personification will the flesh be defined
The hymns they sang still resonate at night
Their hands reminding him of being defiled
Believing they could make Satan take flight
Cringing as they touched this naked child
Sadistic pleasures creating mental chains
As the fanatics invoked their incantations
Vacant eyes revealing my sinful stains
They Give up on God's abomination
Struggling to adorn the robes of normality
Fighting the shadows and the demonic seed
Exorcising the demon a religious fallacy
By the portal of death will the child be freed

private function for soul mates and the pope
perceptions of the worlds imperfections have taken their toll
my own voodoo queen a personal jesus
saints of luck and time
The pope who exercised the last
made me flee my home
the game of life
setting up the future so ican be reborn
soulmate calls me by my name
pope calls out the demon
doing this for my brother
three families to be reborn for the occasion
preparing themselves to find their own answers
for the onslaught that may occur
a voice told me to go find myself
walking in circles reaching out
latent powers of this will work under rug swept
swimming the english channel
so you can win your own lottery
but as i walk on this muddy water
what have you done for me lately
god's plan
