Sonnet

Spoon and smacks, a sweet screw and strap,
Skank cucumbers, sugar's hammer bed;
The donut hotdog, sausage swing to lap,
A slide of neck, a drum of meat and head.
Fur, nipples, pickles, bear, and bull do juice,
The twine, pole, grab leather boots;
Belts, handcuffs, laces, panties, and the noose,
Sword, slave, lipstick, eel, antler, and the hoot.
*****, tunnel, clam, purr, kitty, volcano,
Mussel, worm, shell, and underwear of fleece,
Pussy, thermostat, screams of spank and hollo,
Ashley, pomegranate, hips, and strawberry kiss;
Peach butt cheek, bite, chokecherry and the lips,
Tunnel, vulva, cherry, breasts, and neck.

Muted Feelings

Anger has me. 
Rage has me even better 
This now what I experience is sadness in my eyes because of the pride I carry. 

There are walls built up.
There is a muted heart and a forgetful mind that renders me weak and hurts my feelings.

I without shutters am a hurt sad soul and an angry being.

Dead or alive, my feelings are the same when it comes to life.
“Talking or breathing”, nothing makes sense other than being mute.

In me, there is a hollo blank page of mystery summing up my life. 
My cry is a muted melody without a single tear.

My defenses have been defeated.
Nothing is worth losing.

Hollow

H.O.L.L.O.W.
History Observes Love Leading Our Way

Fear of the moments ahead are not the easiest to hide
Skin wasn’t genetically created to keep emotions inside
As people we were born with the spirit and might
To preserve the beauty of our energy’s light
Something so simple and natural to feel 
Could have the extraordinary power to heal
But the people have been weak while the clocks spun the wheels
Our true meaning and purpose buried deep so tightly sealed
One by one, we regress our sole drive is wanting more
Insatiable craving of power
Send our sons to war
Where there used to be water and life we replace with stores
This world is too noisy I can’t hear the magic from the anymore
I crave not a new life for me
But the ounce hope that this world can be
I wish my children to capture and send my memory
That this world somehow passed on its pure passion to me
To make it out of this self-destructive murder
Of what we truly used to be

Compte Rendu

Hollo Pollo nescient today.
Their life in a suitcase
Crosses boarders from savage soil
Into habitats - Plight untold.

Fear and accomplishment juxtaposed.
Shame and relief, young and old.
Many a promises being sold
Cloudy moonlight - your story unfolds.

Back in time with Stone Age truth
Fights for flesh
Oh ! The colour of the brook.
Heaven or hell - know not they. They pray.

New land found, years from now.
Yesterday's tomorrows lost in today.
Why change Pluto and not our fate?
Rising water it’s not late.

Good old days, let's find our place.

Your Secret Admirer

Balmy by the looks so beguiling 
A sudden feeling aroused by the essence so quest,
You simply smile by the au jus of your lips - 
A solitaire awaited by the presence so lest, 
Whoso you deserve – a solemnity within shone;
A panorama of thoughts, a swain to be, yours
A secret admirer. 

Yenned for the day so longed
A fortune behold by the ephemeral so cadged,
You simply versed by the espy of your eyes - 
A moribund velleity now braced by the apathy of days,
Whoso you deserve – a solemnity within shone;
A panorama of enamors, an amigo to be, yours
A secret admirer.

Faith for the beguile so au fait
A hollo minced by the depth so pulsated
You simply filched thy heart by the ires so true
A nascence of juvenile by the paroles of numb
Whoso you deserve – a solemnity within shone;
A panorama of wordses, a promise to be, yours
A secret admirer.

Hollow Soul

hollow soul 
fighting through
find yourself
braking through
dont you cry
we'll make it too
hollow soul
i love you
count the stars
shinning bright
see the hope
through the night
hollo soul
darkness reigns 
light breaks
through the walls
concience now
you hollow no more
