Premium Member Vanishing point

Feeling a little cross
I gave out to god
For piling different shapes 
upon my hod
To think, we never had 
any future plan 
So made one up
with the home insurance man 

Anyway, I'm covered 
for a sudden leak
But excess is high
and outlook pretty bleak 
With water damage 
undermining my eyes
Canopies atop
fail to keep me baptised 

In a world slowly spinning
time arcs from view
I lose my line of sight
as payment's accrue
My policy reneges
states I'm in arrears 
Offers me (a one off fix) 
then disappears 

Like most chancers in life
I accept the lump
My hod full of shapes
forming a concave hump
Light recedes slower 
through an inverted mind
Come take a look
I'm not the one praying blind 

Still, I could sit with Jesus 
and chat all day 
Til our questions 
compel each other away 
Faster than light speed
(dark energy) recedes
To voids so distant
god awful truth precedes

Vanishing points converge
as minds can't make sense 
Mine's light years away
nailed to a cosmic fence 
Insurance man tries 
to sell me empty space 
He's the devil
I bought it all just in case!

Premium Member Brightening Frightening Neurology

Spectral light resounding arcs,
healing atheistic justice,
positively bow toward resonant 
pantheistic patterned peace
and negatively bend
dissociating dissonant monotheistic trauma.

So too,
wealthy sounding polyphonic cadence
can feel drawn
toward deeply panentheistic
meaning-fullness

Despite no healthy polypathic narrative
widely polymathic democratic speed 
of inspiraling light 
and fractal-powered purpose

When justice shows up
I don't have to solve your world,
nor you resolve my mind 
to body shows just cadence up
maybe isn't quite so marching down.

Just grow out capital His-story.
Throw out whatever wealth-eulogies we can find,
they'll never change our warring minds.
Justice grows unshout out
unpeace changing calm 
wise-womanologies.

Peace flows up
Down deep 
where old whores have discovered luck
of justice so blind she'll never He be
come slippery wet between our beats;
hungry peace flows out.

Just stand up.
Down sliding stairs of glaring need,
gliding prayers of blaring greed,
crying slayers of darkened creed,
slying players of slutty breed,
flying nayers of righteous steeds

Let just Us free 
Earth's kosmic karmic bleed

Flow fueling
light speed rebounding spirals
associate bowing toward resonant 
patterned persistent peace
unbendingly dissociate
disturbing dissonant pleas
resisting monotheistic trauma.

Sublimated Death Wish No Longer Permeates Thru Mine Every Cell

When alive and livingsocial
within webbed wide world
analogous to an emotional hell
I never experienced pomp and circumstances,
and quavers with inconsolable tears
graduation theme song
popularized courtesy Sir Edward Elgar,
thus suicidal ideations no longer relevant
yours truly need not quell
he rages against series of unfortunate events
comprising his life and hard time
(one protracted existential crisis) and yell
like a rebel into the infinite abyss of darkness.

Every subsequent high school graduation year
antedated since June
ninety seventy seven where
yours truly stepped to the podium
to secure his diploma
(I barely squeaked by
from one grade to the next)
stricken with anxiety and experienced urge
to sprint mile a minute evoking manic tear
zipping by at light speed
creating spindleshanks to blur as pair
sorry excuse for legs burning ghee
until reaching destination re:
a specific rocking in casbah Kashmir
actually a sought after interview
with popular Emir.

Personal mailer daemons aside
Azrael readily befriended me before I died
and ably, eagerly and willing obliged to guide
these lovely bones of mine
went for out of world joyride
away to subterranean habitat
where heavenly delight magnified
sense and sensibility overarching credo
unconditional kindred acceptance
downplayed prejudice and pride
communion among apostolic auras
and personas spied
greeting halo trusting word of mouth
as adequate signal to be verified
nullifying former dependence
on prescription medication
to thwart becoming zombified.

The following pharmacological medications
taken courtesy to cope with anxiety,
obsessive compulsive disorder, panic attacks
and generally curbing tendencies to avoid
physiological symptoms such as:
nausea, palmar hyperhidrosis
(unrelenting sweaty palms), and vertigo.

GLYCOPYRROLATE, TAB 2 MG (thrice daily)
CLOMIPRAMINE CAP 50 MG (once nightly)
RISPERIDONE TAB 1MG (once nightly)
FLUOXETINE CAP 20MG (once daily)
PRAZOSIN HCL CAP 1 MG (three pills nightly)
BUSPIRONE TAB 15MG (twice daily)
PRAMIPEXOLE TAB 1MG (once nightly)
CLONAZEPAM TAB 0.5MG (once nightly
AMITIZA 24 MCG 
(prescription laxative - as necessary)

The Tortoise and the Hare

"... what I said was, The Tardis... and I'm the heir..."

Much more on the inside than you could ever imagine...

and Siriusly sweet with a passion

The juice in my Driver

is a River in tune

"... light speed isn't quite 

what you envision..."

but it's faster than a broom

I'd say

And a smoother ride too, 

you can cruise

on the inside and choose

any mind for a wind

you can be 

and you can find

any one thing 

in any amount of time...

I figure all you'd need

are the keys

and these,

appear

to be 

mine...



"... screwdrivers are outdated
to traveling time 
any way..."

Life In Cubicle

The Noose is tightening.
The 5’s and 10’s yanked from our hands and aching backs 
Are spent on band-aids:
A last stand effort to plug the holes in our hearts
When the price of drowning is only getting higher
So we turn to tiny acts of thievery
Taxes prettied up, cashiers uncorrected,
Stealing at the edges because we’re backed into corners, 
Corners
Glittering with promises corners
Dripping with possibility,
With Island resort wallpaper
Sold in bulk at Wal-Mart for
Profit: A trail of crumbs called America-
Which has curdled our souls and we love it!
And hate it and gossip about it and think obsessively about it and then
We find the most expensive friends our looks can afford,
Shopping for substance (50% off)
Staring through the eye of a screen 
Light speed in pursuit of heaven on earth (Ignore the plastic)-
Until pop!
We die of ADHD. 
Never having had the chance to smell the genetically modified roses.
Never having had the chance to see through this kingdom of ideas
As we served out our sentence to life in cubicle.

Fruit of the Earth

Fruit 
of 
the Earth.

Fruit on the tree,
strong connection at the stem
Retain a yearning,
The buffet that nature is
We dwell not to think that nothing doth feed upon dust,
Yet the rocks nourish the wind
Who feed so slowly— its like the obverse of light speed,
As it picks apart form, 
to form sand,
Like that in man’s made hourglass measuring time,
And we may measure time by suns overhead or moons under feet,
And you are eternally exhumed to once feed the living, once you are dead,
But you never die,
The crisp rigid bones, the soft flesh,
Rigid
Soft
Again,
To be exhumed,
The perfume you create for flexing nostrils
Short moon-cycled vibrant creatures yearning to resurrect the energy Nature’s sun has stored in you.

Ground Edges

Ground edges the rim of her lipstick stained coffee mug.
Sharp eclipsed moons shine upon endless day's everlasting nights'.
Butterfly eye bandages uphold bloodshot remembers that these days of our lives; are—Weeding out the faint promise, it was all a dream.
Lists written on used paper napkins, crochet into sculptures that symbolize finite past.
Balancing by tipping toes, stretched out arms teeter, a tad bit, toward edging out grounds; becoming taller.
Grass clippings flying through the sky sticking to his back; no shoes no shirt, top down, no sweat . . .
That same green grass edged the rim of her lipstick stained coffee mug.
Shots pile up higher and higher until mugs file lines up drunk enough to take mugshots.
On the brink of ground edgings, panic finds manic eating their Disco Biscuits.
Freak out! 
I mean it freak. Come out or I'll...
Freak out!
Surrounded by ground edges that terminate somewhere within light speed and dark area; an obviously gray matter.
Time travels at life speed and life travels with your perception of such time becoming understood to become such as speed.
Time speed
Hovers
Around
Ground edges (and)

Life

That about sums itself up these days.

That being rested faceless upon their lipstick stained mugshots.

Premium Member Crime and victim day and night

The name Scot denoting a man, combined with terra.
Translated; Scotland.! a masculine descriptive will it be
Banned.? By the idiocracy; with a non-descriptive..?
Dystopian' most bland..The most disconnect could be
Planned? To remove the (hate word) we know as Scotland'
Police of unknown place unsaid..' Consider it reported!!
Let the originator dread.' un-justified lawfare should be now
Unleashed, upon this most unfortunate beast, so ready the
Capsule 'you in blue' go back two millenia! my advice
To you.' Make recordings and drink some mead, get back
Here present; above light speed, and bring offenders one
And all.' Give them chance to offer their call, then haul them
Off to that nazis son..Bald head and glasses.? Do you know
The one? Hangs out with soros who 'shopped his own' and
He's got his wrinkled rump on the money throne..'
Who buys his cronies, with the funding he got, from that
ss colonel..What a sorry lot?? So its do your worst now
These days not a joke..You all hate reality, things are up in
Smoke.' Hate crime the lawfare, buzzwords your proof just
Denigrate reality and confuse your youth, Its a real bad
Deal, btw? Is that all you've got? for hundreds of millons.! Too
Bad you've lost the plot.' Yet I wonder if the money goes
Back to davos? no matter what outcome' scoros still
Finances from out; of those cypresses groves.'

Premium Member Space Voyage To Gamma Prime

Our first space pioneers had to fulfill this need.
They had to travel faster than light speed.
Without it, there would have been no space travel.
The amount of time required would have made it impractical.
This proved to be a difficult problem to tackle.
Our physicists and engineers worked very feverishly.
The results of all their labor you can see.
How do they do it?  Don’t ask me!
It is a process with the greatest complexity.
Look out the port side window, and view with your eyes.
There is a yellow star comparable to our own sun’s size.
The third planet orbiting that star is Gamma Prime.
As the tour guide, I wish all of you passengers a good time.
