To help grow their grain, 
When we're just wasting water,
Without...

Where you're not stressed or distraught?

When I was interrupted by a long ago friend that lived in the hood.

A Battle Outside Raging
I stand within these walls of comfort,
Called freedom.
While in every corner of this world,
My siblings die.

Brothers and sisters of earth,
Struggling for hope.
My vagabond mind wanders in circles,
Searching for answers.

Still, questions hang like dead fog,
Which never...

It Doesn'T Smell Good
An awful stench  is circulating in the air
erupting dark clouds  everywhere
Rough waves moving backward
casting doubts and hammering fear 
Muddy water gushing down the dirty stream
disrupting and shaking the core of my dream
You brought...

Premium Member Hospital Stay
Temporary housing for the quick and the dead,
Lucky ones get to leave on occasion
But nothing is certain and medicine an art.

If I could have just one desire
 maybe multiples of sevens
 I would swallow my pride

Proud Mica
Proud  Mica


I mustn’t go inside
For I will die
Though forbidden
I dig for mica,
A shimmery crystalline rock 
Resembling thin mirror glass 

I bare scars 
From scraping the ceiling inside 
A hollow, black hole 
That’ll surely collapse...

She was my sandbox love,
When we were just kids
The one I dared to eat dirt
My hero, when she did
My enemy, when she said
Your turn now and I double dog dare
You eat some dirt 
And that...

Your sandbox of toys
Your mommy took away
I'll drive my Tonka truck
All over your face

I feel like I'm trying to lick a stone
Let's not say Easter Island - nothing weird
Not even Stone Henge
Non descript standing stones... faux history
There's not a lot to be gained 
Particularly as I'm not really...
