Short Associations Poems

The mind drifts
  free-floats gaily
far, far from its moorings
  lighter-than-air

Associations stream
  in-and-out on
ribbons, wisps of lazy strings
  hanging from rose-colored kites

Dark forces loom
  yet undetected
thoughts breathlessly racing
  beyond our tenuous grasp...

In contrast  well on the other hand seems like
opposites attempting to catch the wind. Exerting to resolutions, connecting, and associations. A goal one's  mirror of one's mind, A afterthought? often dazes in one's head according to one's way of thinking, interconnected ways of linking....

mental associations mitigate effervescence 
interfering by manifesting desired outcome 
so looking nonchalantly at these stirrings 
we reject ego’s counsel rooted in ignorance 

a constant watchful eye and tranquil heart
sets soul free from the tendency to stagnate
thus moment by moment, shedding resistance 
in agendaless vibrance, we dwell in the void...

Sometimes life give you
Life lessons
Instead of love.
Stepping stones,
Scattered throughout
All phases of life.
Showing you signs,
Making memories
And with each loss
Something is learned.
They say a person takes
A little something 
From every person 
They’ve been with.
We are merely
A collection of connections.
Our experiences
And associations
Shape us....

Fond Farewell



Questionable relationships,
Blemished with disappointment.
Unforeseen deception,
Sincerity a sham.

Self-interested motives,
Fair-weathered associations.
Politically correct affiliations,
Unforgivable avoidance.

Cast-off, black-listed,
Circumstantial accusations.
Self serving agendas,
Betrayal no more.

No love lost....
What comes around, Goes Around....

Poignant and manifest,time lapsed
moods become pastimes joined in
silence.Intuitive,held together ,irregular
emotive.Imprecise associations make
extraordinary leaps into consciousness
obscuring reality.

Would I be able to expand my wings? 
I walk around the mists. 
I do stunts in the breeze. 
I console the powers of murkiness. 
Arrange the resulting time frames 
As in chess, for evident reasons. 
A raindrop lands on my courtyard.
Each day, I water my day dawn. 
I usually appreciate some water on the lawn. 
A connection between ordinary associations. 
Appearing late, everything is pushed back....

Imitation, unauthentic, superficial why? Create
associations and link ups that causes distress  on one another human being for sport  frankly 
Where's  the trueness or loyalty? For gain for this reason Counterfeit,  Betrayed,  unhealed childhood 's traumas. 
Survival  of initiating  fake friendship  is it one's 
goal to distract? And expeditiously  obtain substances for one lack of and approval or others or lack of void of mere beggary....

The roaming minutes encircle my thoughts
As I delve romantically into the possibility of falling
My associations, they tend for the lift
When my vicarious aberrations cause a pigs tail in their midst
Yet their overworn malicious grin tends to me a harrowing mystique dealt subsequent
Therein, in lieu of stirring a stew in such autonomous disparity, as of late,
I wave the waiter over for the check
and leave breadcrumbs sticking to my plate...

Hold me tight
to free me
from this screaming isolation.

Hug me right
to free me
for our streaming restoration.

Hear me fight
here to free us
from my darkest dream depression.

Speak this night
for freedom
from our wrong self-shaming
other-blaming impressions,
cold climates of suppression,
heated hates for oppression,
reserved and calculated rates
for irreverent repressions.

Hold me tight
to free me
from this lack
of free associations....

People say that when people get money they change
No, money just brings the true you out
So before the new year comes in
The true me is coming out
Before the money comes in
I'm forgetting all of you
All of you who doubted me
All of you who played me fifty and all of you who think less of me
So now whats the excuse
I have no money
No money to make big changes
Just little changes with my associations
This will be apart of my new year's resolution
My life rearranges...

Feed me, Free me.
Free my heart and body.
Unbind me from this phase of blues 
and unpromising associations.

Separate me from mornings of base 
talk and dusk of drunk peers.
Annihilate my tolerance for mediocre 
and bogus surroundings.

Feed my soul and thoughts.
Set me at the table of the wise and 
deep ones,
pump me with the will and vigour to 
relate.

Carry me to terrains where like minds 
dwell.

'I'm ready', i scream
'a little more time', he says..
I wait and yearn....

when music associations
hinder your daily cultural existence and evolution,
you cringe at the sound of a lyric.
heart breaks just a bit,
like a rotting house,
cracking,
yearly reaching an inch,
and over time,
accelerating in speed.
but then you come to a hault,
a conscious self identifying conclusion,
that in fact you might, just might,
get the **** over it.
you do.
you then find yourself,
singing the tune,
inside your brave skull.
hmmm hm hm hm mm m
ooooouuuu yea.
thank you....
