Been a little
Seen a little
Dreamed a little
Cradled a little
Cried a little
Loved a little
Lost a little
Been bitten a little
Bought a little
Sold very little
Been happy a little
Been sad a little
Felt pain a little
Joy a little
Been belittled
But rarely of late
Say
Little meaningful
Or
Nothing little
Consequential at all
When little matters
Most of all
" Touche "

It doesn't matter one bit what
Naysayers say about you. Ignore them as they
Continue to laugh at your dreams. Concern yourself
Only with what your family and true friends say
Never waste your time and energy with
Strangers who don't matter, and never will
Every doubting Thomas wants to be a critic
Questioning and condemning anything
Under the sun, purely out of spite
Everything they say to you is simply
Noise; they love hearing themselves talk
Tune them all out. Their negative opinions are
Inconsequential in the final...
Analysis. Forget them all, instead...
Live your life to the fullest!

"turn right in 180 meters"
Turned left,
To feed the occasional
Anxiety.
"Rerouting to your destination."

Inconsequential Events
Today I woke up.
No chain of events. a diversion from the norm?
Exasperation like copper coins
Overhead. I bake to forget.
Aromas of lemon and cinnamon
Overwhelm me. So I shed a tear.
Once I was a sultry brunette.
Today my hair is scarlet. Fake.
My cake rises in hue of lemon
Then explodes. Crumbles of shells.
I do solemnly declare my cake an allegory
But allegory for what?
Guilt? Guilt for having it all.
I am the generation of having it all.
Two point four.
Then I woke up.
Should keep my dreams in check.
My daughter demands milkshake for breakfast.

Never tell secrets on farmland. Potatoes have eyes, corn have ears and beanstalk.a great impossibility is suddenly deemed satisfactory but this not a factor nor is it a factory. Fir to mass reproduce is to induce a mass corrosion quality of human stigma. And to wait is ti wilt. Hahaha and no hahahaha and then finally a big hahahahaha and then a fragment of a figment and a free food but no free. Hahahaha and weeeee piggles......and weeeeee. Throw the arms and legs around. Sergeant matey. Know knock down then stand. How? How? How? Is that even possible I mean is an equatalateral triangle a rhombus?? hahaha and a mildew smiles in a dawn darkness. And a fish fork dancing with a tailored topiary. Gjvkdkdj and a hash tag is neither a waltz with a danger nor an epitomised z chorus. Go try on the apron appropriately.....xxxxzz inconsequential

Mood follows mood, think upon think;
Good cultures good, link after link.
Ponder again the points of fact:
Sense thought laid plain in simple tact.
Ponder yet still life's paradox:
The risky bet that's out-of-box!
Ponder once more the subtle norm:
That dreamy shore beyond mere form.
Thought follows thought, feel upon feel;
See feel that plots spontaneous will.
Here we go round mulberry bush;
Notice the grounds for pull and push!

Wasting away, crimson of death seeping through
Speaking through filtered tears
The whispered disclosed soothing words skewed
As the world shifts into abstract artwork, seared
My memories lie as awake as if you sat there still
The blackened storm shifts from dull to enlightened
Captured, the desired outcomes' gruesome kill
Sailing through unchartered lands , your expression not frightened
Flattened are the words that fill the inconsequential life
Fighting only left, death had triggered this belated strife.

Inconsequential diatribe
From politicians left and right
Is something we should not inscribe
Across our children's line of sight.
Polarity can paralyze
When adulation of conceit
Allows some not to realize
Opposing views must all compete.
Diversity has made us great
Along with freedom to believe
Or not believe in God and fate
To justify what we conceive.
Inherent in democracy
Is freedom from oppressive weight
That rules like some autocracy
Imposed upon us by the state.
Religion is a private right
To be defended by us all;
But mixed with politics, a blight,
That causes governments to fall.
So take a breath of freedom's air
And celebrate diversity;
Both gay or straight and dark or fair
Rejoice in your nobility.
