Premium MemberDon't Repeat Your Mistakes

It always seems you've moved on until the pain hits again
How long does it take for a heavy heart to mend
If the pain is routine then by now you should be used to it
Not making the same choices that brought you to the pit
You're thinking this choice is much different watch and see
If I just

To a future Lover

I am watching 3 inches off of the floor,
The man outside waits at my door
I know the screams from within the box 
Howl and call upon your order upon the rocks
But I know you can hold your tongue 'till the end of the night
And I know you can wait until I seem right.

Feel your spite,

Premium MemberEchoes of a Love Unwritten

The clock towers loom, a haunting chime,
A wish to rewind, to conquer time.
To rewrite pages stained with pain,
To wash away the hurtful rain.

If I could grasp that fleeting hour,
Before my actions turned love sour,
I'd cradle you in my gentle embrace,
And hold you in that sacred space.

More than a whisper, more than a dream,
I'd drown you

Stuck on Repeat

Livin like I'm on the streets 
Kuz I'm just too beat
My life never been sweet
Been a rough f*kn road since day one
Can't even pretend this is fun
This run is way over done
But the double yellow lines & no shoulder 
Got me stuck in this lane
It's f*kn lame
I dream about boring and plain 
Begging for a

Premium MemberThe Repeat of Fate



"The Repeat of Fate"

Deep buried in a dead forest
I hadn’t heard of before,
Wycoller lies in ruins, barren
no trees nor foliage remain,
no tenant can be found,
but here I am
like a ghost glued 
fast as a succubus to its walls

rain like poetry falls hard
the wind stinging the loveless hymn’s
continuous tin-hitting torrent to breathe
and it fills its chanting

Cursed To Repeat

Blisters of
disillusion
fester 
and boil

Vision
rubbed raw
in the darkness
embroiled 

False 
expectations
lie scattered
and burned

Ignoring
our history
with lessons
— unlearned

(Dreamsleep: February, 2025)

Life’s Repetition of rinse and repeat:

Life’s Repetition of rinse and repeat:
Saga, the odyssey
 lies 
And deceit.
Juliet’s drowning upon daggers blade in
Response to a Romeo’s lethal swallow. 
The need be not the chasing down of serpentine sleuthing out the whys they bit you..
But the how so to heal oneself from poisons onset.
Cause the effect.
Effect the cause.
Alterations of souls allegiances.

Live, Die, repeat

Live, die, repeat!


Live, die, repeat!
Live, die, repeat!
Listen to these words from me,
Bitter,
not sweet.
Live,
Die,
Repeat!

In the realms of my world,
it's live,
die,
repeat!
Every time I live it,
it's like I go to sleep.
Especially at the end,
where I hear a final beat,
I can't help being terminal,
we all have an ending,
some subliminal.

Mine's written in the proverbs,
like it's proverbial,
Non-profitable,
non-livable.
Though I live it now,
and

Premium MemberGEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER REPEAT

I know I’ve used this George Washington Carver quote before…
but I believe we can’t hear these words enough…
especially when we look our on a world
where, for so many, times are tough…

Eventually when these words might find their way into our hearts
we’ll see everyone as our sister and our brother
and we’ll look out on a world
where
