PSYCHOTIC JOURNEY
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS


Feeling really beat,  I went to bed early last night
Suddenly awakened feeling something’s not right
There was total darkness, I was not in my room
Lying on a cold flooring, with a feeling...

Opening Day with a Little Delay

Take me out to the ball game
 Of balls and strikes - bloopers and perfect games; 
 Basket catches, ERA’S, country hardball;
 Foul balls, the pick off, intentional walk, the...

The bases needed sweeping 
As the end was drawing near
Buns and weenies waving
As Fans swilled down their beer

The crowd jumped to their feet
As Macy went to bat 
And while walking to the plate
To everyone he...

A man unpresidentially known for the showerhead
Msholozi, the man in charge of singlehandedly running a nation into crisis
With him at the helm the public anxiously watches as the state of things degenerate
The rand has slumbered,...

I lay in this mess bored
Like I’m half torn
Before I was born
I had to press forward.
Live deceives you
And think,
What’s in between blinks?
It’s not a manner of speech
It’s what deceives you to think.
What makes people meet

I uttered an authoritative groan as he let
go of my hand
This was it
Never ever was I again going to stroke his
cheeks or fondle any other art in his
glittery body
I wanted to run away as memories

They stayed focused
they knew if they honed there craft
they could be contenders
and maybe even "champion's"
a world awaited them.

dueling reluctacey gave way to
a match which ended in...

In warm embrace of gravity blanket,
I feel lazy and sluggish!

The fog outside melting on the glass,
Is beseeching entry to my cozy blanket!

I must ignore and defy,
But the whiff of hot caffeine is igniting!
And this merciless...

In a tossing and turning night, to wake up I forgot
Never slipping from a series of perpetual dream
A strange situation over and again, escape I could not
In the fabric of this woolgather, I couldn’t tear...

Dawn rises touching the hilltop - new light swelling with the smell of coffee and bacon.  Eyes blink away the sandman’s residue, loud yawns like lions, footsteps in pj’s resound on staircases – breakfast...

Flowers blooming
Spaced out or in a tight-knit grouping

All around things looming
In space objects still or moving and zooming

Birds pluming
And other animals grooming

Downloads queueing
Electronics in need of a rebooting
Or powering off, to enable cooling

Below, on and...

Under the blue sky
Thunder feels like
Pain
Someone's gonna cry
Hidden by the rain
Soft echoes of grief
Fill the midnight air
Who knows what lies beneath
Does anyone even care
Why the words get lost
Do they have any meaning
What was the final...

Brown lizard or polka dot? Eyes or no eyes?
Long tail with a hook or short tail with a V?
The line waiting to order shuffles her feet.
White or red? Pink...

When I was still rising, from east to west
Little I got it, my old ones tough
They asked how much, the soil plus shelter
I thought but bit, all for my laugh

In the highest school on earth,...

Win gold
be bold

Long run
such fun

High jump
speed bump

Grand prize
all eyes

Close race
in chase

Drab match
I catch

Ground stroke
no joke

Tiebreak
heartache

Foot fault
must halt

Forehand
so grand

Deuce court
report

Drop shot
on spot

Backspin
just in

Closed stance
advance

First serve
hold nerve

All out
no doubt

Arm ball
your call

Back foot
well put

Feet sore
crowd roar

Pit stop
right flop

An alien landed in my thoughts today in the form of a gnat,
Right on the paper, it happened like that.
Not bothersome, not a worry at all,
Not big or fat or two feet tall.

Which is sometimes...

Back in 1964 Harry and Larry
  Just couldn't agree,
  Who was cuter,
  Mary or Dee.

At lunch was a fight,
  Kids gathered 'round;
  Didn't care it weren't right--
  Fists a-flying,...
