The tag behind my shirt, Feeling like your covered in Dirt. Except, There's nothing there. You just feel unclean, But there's no trace seen. Cars beeping, The tv is on, Someone is playing a song There is too much going on. I need to stay sane My sensory is overwhelmed once again. Its making me want to yell. Stillness is needed, Otherwise I'll get heated. ...

The sound of your rose petal blush sunsetting on your face Feels like my goosebumps dancing on the sky tops of my skin The smell of your mountain rain hair crying sounds like a mid-day summer shower The look of curiosity cuts in the middle of my gaze and feels like a conversation I can’t wait to...

Colors of orange and blue, Cascading through, A calm and pleasant, Balancing hue. The pleasure running through me, Can very easily, Take control of me, Stealing our energy. Creativity falls below, Disrupting the flow. Then duality, Throws another blow.

All pleasure and aggression, Our constant obsession, And not learning the lessons. Creating a fantasy, To escape from reality. Clinging...

It’s like- I’m walking though a busy mall. Oh wait, I am, it’s real. I can read minds, I know it sounds silly. Or maybe I can’t. But I can sense the texture of their clothing. I see a tall person and feel tall which makes me disoriented. I am rushing around this place trying to understand their lives. The whooshing of...

In my possession Right here right now In the palm of my hand At the click of a button Simply tapping keys Institaneously a seemingly limitless And insurmountable stream of knowledge And information i am able to access The only problem I am now personally finding Is deciphering the difference between Which is true and which is fake As both sides can not be both right 2...

What if woke up one day- and you could not see or hear? Would you find twisted relief?- Or would your mind resort to fear? If I could hear no sound- I wouldn't hear you when you yell. (But) I'd hear no genuinity-- when your heart begins to spill. I'd hear no more excuses- to justify the hurt you've caused me. But I...

Times the world overloads me All I see Close my ears Cover their tears Seek some peace of my own To protect me from all I've been shown Since I don't know when I've always picked up my pen Away I would ride lost in some word Only way I could be heard I write some rhyme To escape for a short time Lost to me...

Winter bought rights to long life ~ in command of blizzards, ice storms, unusable roads. Iced windshields, snowmen--whatever's on hand. Heat overuse caused great melt overload. Alas, Winter thawed--and found he'd been snowed. ~Snowed, in this sense, means overwhelmed with lies, taken advantage of~ December 13, 2021 For Winter Quintain Contest by Francine Roberts...

Fire raged through heavy wooded terrain, Blizzard hit the panhandle hard, Bad windstorm slammed the western plains, Mudslides hid hundreds of backyards. Brutal sandstorm swept through arid plains, Fierce hurricane aimed at the Keys, Havoc descended on tornado lane,...
