Apologies
Apologies If I say I'm sorry I will get my way Your thinking to sway Apology to look good Narcissism under the hood For me everyone will root Apology to provoke guilt Creates self-doubt to the hilt Blame to you will shift Apologies made from half truth My own feelings to soothe Everyone thinks I stand on truth Apologies to put it in the past Knowing fake peace won't...

Not The First Time
Not the First Time By Cathrin Stuart Late at night, you came home drunk Not the first time I heard you and Mommy talking Not the first time You came and pulled me out of bed by the hair Not the first time You beat me in the passage until I bled Not the first time I was not allowed to cry, mop up...

HOW CAN I PRETEND: PART 4
HOW CAN I PRETEND ? PART 4 Innocence, zest, curiosity remain intact protected crimson hymns I earned when Divinity composed a skin of cheetah brown amused at a white chin where my masculine’s fuzzy beard ought to be HE raucously laughed aloud at my horrored ‘Don’t You Dare ! O Great One !’ Then asked ‘What will you...

HOW CAN I PRETEND: PART 3
HOW CAN I PRETEND ? PART 3 Pretence lies coffined as Spring makes a call early chincherinchees kissing late winter’s wind knowing empty cupboards will be filled once more perceptions of another timeline where artful wiles and emotionless inserts receive no nods of approval My Love stands oaked in cerebral signature unashamedly chiffon unmoved before North-South, East-West Buddha and Serapis in a visiting...

HOW CAN I PRETEND : PART 1
HOW CAN I PRETEND ? PART 1 How can I pretend when flutters across my chest only prickle as your thought arrives with doubt or hope What is hope anyway ? A flimsy wish built upon a matrix I no longer attune to as Mantis explores my device How can I pretend when staring at a mouldy...

Premium Member The Alchemy of Truth Includes the Lens
The alchemy of truth may be from a particular perspective or colored by youth and sprinkled with objective For your truth can hold your own view your lens through which you see the world And naivety can lead astray and reality fall subject to that doom And you may not have the ability yet to completely read the room When you don't have wisdom You...

("To the Bone", 2018, original encaustic) Down to the Bone Over and over Up and down Back-and-forth Around and ‘round It’s always learning the same lesson. Learning it again And again. Like a species, An individual With amnesia We cycle around Experiencing To rediscover Yet again What we’ve always known Not in a rut, but In a spiral. And each time...

To Get Life Experience
Life experience, Cannot be obtained without experiencing life, And one cannot experience life, Without at least one mentor welcomed into your life, And seeing others who have a life, That makes your life seem a great life. The first step in gaining life experience, Is to stop seeing yourself as a victim of life, Which takes belief that will be tested for life, And...

I used to fear that some would find me strange. Yet I'm seeing life harsher than I thought. Thus I shape a wandering mountain range. I used to fear that some would find me strange My hunch tells me it's time to make a change. It's simpler than what I aimed or I've wrought I used to fear that some would...

Premium Member Still, We Look Up
We have toiled, we have laboured. we have launched into the deep, we wearied ourselves in tempest. endangering our lives for filths, Our summer too short for relief, and the winter too long with pains, we bore the shame, the jeers and mockery. we met with stiff opposition, foes within and more without, the deadliest daggers...

Premium Member Sands of Time
I started life as a grain of sand, But knew I’d find a way to expand, And always being a bit of a rebel, I joined with others and became a pebble, And as I grew and then took stock, I realised that I had become a rock, And as I become more confident and grow older, I wonder if I’ll become...

Have I-Book 4
~Have I~ Have I done the best of all that I could Have I lived my life the way I should Have I said the things I couldn’t say Have I made the best of each new day Have I been strong when I felt fear Have I heard things that I need to hear Have I kept a smile when skies...

The Territory of Passion
Our world has become rough and brutal. We forgot all the tenderness and love. They closed the heart with a light movement, And passion is now the Queen of ice. And all the laws, norms and morality Suddenly, they are no longer so important. Who cares about someone's life? We created an alien world like...
