That's handed down through time
But couldn't be, as you will see

Africa, 

In this tranquil spectre of time, 

imagination tickled,

Tell, 

I will tell of the treasures of a people, 

Africa on my mind, 

The blessed Land of the brown Chocolatey pigment,

the brave unbroken cast,

Green Spyder
When I first saw it
	in the dark corner there
where none would see it
	hidden away from sight

dark green was its color
	in the darkness hard to see
with few bright glitters
	catching the light

smooth flowing curves it had
	without harsh...

Darkness looms, even in the stariest of night. 
Fears come forth attacking those with sight.
You hinder, you holler, but no one can see, what my minds eye is trying to tell me.

I myself cannot, place...

Cling
The sharp knife of simplicity 
cut a transverse incision through my scalp.
The hands of hope gutted out my psyche,
deconstructed my mind,
and organized it into a coherent tumor
that fills the gap once deep in my brain....

Premium Member The Poisoned Bottle
The Wuhan experiment concealed,
The cunning crafts devised,
Myriad of ignorant mass their targets,
An agenda unmasked, 
Polluted atmosphere 
Forged idea of a prepared viceroy.
"Mask up"
"Six feet"
"isolate"
Inauguration of the control game.
People's servants turned tyrants, 
Ignorant bunch of scallywags...

This gift, which was given to me free,
spiritually elevated me
Now the...

Beautiful and bizarre crystal forms create waves...

Stillness of Emotion
Quasar pulse time moves 
at the pause ratio of 
radioactive query change

A long anticipated moment of attraction
did quicky supernova boom, 
then it slowly did mushroom
into repellant cloudy, doubtful affection
 
Heartbeat fears
perceptually travel 
on quantum tick-tock...

Memory erased, each time we begin anew
Of hands held tenderly, we’ve lost the score
Each embrace virgin like fresh morning dew...

Cakes Got a Beef
When a student is on the verge

there always comes a flashpoint of conflict
Giving way to superior intellect

The elder acquiescing to the younger

with wildflowers giving more beauty

After finishing work on the rail

The mountains on the island stretch to the sky
Towards them great eagle will fly

Solidify into the things best left unseen
