Premium Member Earthy Empathy

"I love humanity--
it's just people I can't stand."

I love healthy humanity--
it's just uppity and/or snooty people I can't stand

I love cooperative humanity--
it's just overly-competitive individuals I can't stand.

Not so distant from,

Premium Member Bipartisan Dissonance
When oppositional cognitive dissonance 
deflects focus from compassion,
I've learned to go back to when I deflected focus from her.
She sends me passive-aggressive messages,
bread crumbs leading back in time 
to where she began to feel alone,
marginalized,
siloed,
anxious,
neglected.

Premium Member Boundary Issues As Opportunities
I wonder if everyone
has a most dreaded dreamed
nightmare worst way 
to conscientiously drop wrong dead.

Mine is claustrophobi-recallish buried
half alive at best is worse
in a wooden rough pine crate.

I'm feeling angry with those who raped,
then buried...

Pink Pink Pink
Pink- Pink- Pink-

Every peak has its own attractions,
Like the mountains,
The mounts of a woman,
Have always remained, 
Her pride possessions. 01

It has the charms,
More intoxicating than wine,
As it reveals the beauty,
Of a woman's alluring binds. 02

Im Possible
Poetically impressive 
Mentally progressive 
Addicted to my writing
it’s becoming a bit obsessive 
But this is the medicine 
A therapy for my depression 
Post traumatic disorder
Is the cause for my aggression 
My heart gets heavy

It is all very well for Mr. DesCartes
