{"This heavy humanness she burdened inside, 
Sent electrical shocks through her body, 
she would weep silently with a fist pressed up against her maw with her eyes evidently glistening nobody would attempt to console her...

When I was in grade school
I was, already, 
on my leftbrain dominant path
toward acting the intellectual snob.

This, in large part
my best offense,
my trump card, sadly,
against marginalizing prejudice
of our community's non-farmer economic
and political Elite;

The few kids
whose...

Three years deep into freedom
And yet perhaps as tied down now as I was then
Scars are scars because they do not vanish
Fade as they might, that skin is numb forever

As a being made of scar...

Beelzebub arrived between the christmas lights strung inside my dorm,
Buzzing on my walls and brain to display what he must warn.

Voices scream inside my head when no one is around,
Dragging me deeper into my mind...

Biology! Biology! How many times have I called you?
You frighten me every time I hear your name,
Because I can’t withstand your lies and pain you cause me,
You lack conscience since you introduced unknown world to...

"50 Words for Poe: St John"




St John was his name
Sinjun for short
Temptation was his game

Ah Black Monk of my dreams
A hot car on a fast track

Shifting gears
I burn up the road, turn up the stick

Does complaining helps, I don't know; but they say
yes it helps, keeps one away from taking action;
It gives excuses to procrastinate, stay
away from achieving goals as reaction;
Complain helps too much not to try to find...

Fight or flight mode always on
Can't explain to anyone
what is going on in life
Internal/External strife

"Take a breath; you'll be alright"
Set a match to dynamite
World without is going mad
World within is getting sad

Cortisol spikes all the...

Watch the multi-tasking drivers talking on the phone.
This is a story of our daily life-style that we overlook and condone.
Recognize the familiar a.m. and p.m. rush-hour cast? 
Could this be you in traffic on the...

Disconsolate obsidian waves crash over crumbling dunes,
Sweeping afflicted grains of sand back into the depths,
Dragging my paralysed soul with them.
Engulfed in despondent riptides,
I gasp for oxygen amongst rippling currents,
As a fiery moon hangs precariously overhead.
Blood-red...

A relay of moods dribbles on and on
when euphoric tunes kick in:
Jazz, R& B, slow funk, wild pop
igniting primal ecstasy, in the flesh...raw!

Live music leaves me breathless
as thuds of a drum, the intricate fondling
from saxophones...

Crawling upon desecrated ashes,
whispers haunt ~
“You will never make it.”

Vermilion skies rumble over the brutal horizon,
splitting open as a deafening rain pours forth,
drenching an already collapsing body.

Splaying nails rip into hollow earth.
Eerie silhouettes dance in...

Live music leaves me enthralled 
as thuds of a drum, the intricate fondling from saxophone notes blast these veins 
until intoxicated head convulses

when euphoric tunes pump in unabated--
jazz, R&B, wild soul, and rocking pop ignite
primal...

'I'm thinking positive thoughts,'
says the voice from an orange tent
in Suicide Forest.

Since he hanged his alter ego in effigy,
Mr T. Hashimoto has canceled
all his psychiatric appointments.

He lies on his back 
and mentally calculates
his cortisol level.

My body is awash with serotonin,
Endorphin and adrenaline,

I pounded the pavement with such fury,
With earphones, with such fury,
On ears, Metallica pounded mine

I followed the track with such determination,
While frustrations, with such determination,
Followed me

I felt the...

Laying here worrying
What’s on your mind?
Your silence stab’s my soul
And I’m left here wondering
What is going wrong?

Looking through photos of you
Makes me smile, you’re so Beautiful
You’re so wonderful
I want you to always be mine

Something’s gone...

There's so much left unsaid
questions unanswered
and reasons to stay
But you were taken away
I keep thinking we'll all wake up
shake off this nightmare of a trip
and for a split second, a moment, I forget
and each morning...

It brings peace to the whole world, 
Stopping both anger and hate; 
It wipes out the insults hurled, 
Giving love is not too late.

It makes human heart healthy, 
Keeping it away from harm;
