Victoria's secret lost its glitter
caving into politico triggers
now plain and angry are in vogue
beautiful is now deemed the rogue
Rapinoe gives me the jitters
My hands are shaking,
I can’t shake it.
My chest is caving,
Someone save me.
I just want to leave,
All because I can’t breathe.
Tears are flowing,
Making it hard to keep people from knowing.
Anxiety.
Not knowing the outcome,
I’d hide in the field
And wait for nature
to turn out the yield
Perception unharvested,
the thick to the thin
The fantasies rotting
—all truth caving in
(Stoltzfus Farm: December, 2020)
caving in the shadow of sun's embrace,
new scroll rolled up on earth,
reveals the world's end.

MENDICANT MONK
As a mendicant monk
my empty begging bowl
glistens in the moonlight,
yet this is the path
I surrender to in life.
Another night of chanting
with a growling stomach
caving in empty, empty
belly, empty mind. I sit
in the void of reality.
I feel the walls are caving in
and in here i cannot breathe.
Wow can someone take my anxiety
I'm begging, pretty, pretty please.
Tired and heavy from the choas here
tell me my head's still on.
Please you cannot leave me down here
Oh my God i wish i were gone.
Form:
River stone oh river stone
Rolling down the river
Never drowning in your tears
Never caving to your fears.
Smoother and smoother
As the day goes on
Warmer and warmer
Toward the setting Sun.
Tomorrow will be another day,
A time of plenty,
A time to play
did declare a truce
a slogan started to use
must try to amuse
we started shaving
into them started caving
have been behaving
are apprehensive
expensive and sensitive
being extensive
when we reached an end
many people would offend
to jail them will send
We are only trying to help you
You are surrounded by darkness
Keep messing around with narcotics
And you will drown in sadness
Things will disappear bit by bit
The walls are caving in
The little child needs you in his life
Your situation appears to be acrid and grim
Caving in
as my mountain
begins to fold
A mountain that was so steep,
tall, wide, and proud
has crumbled.
Caved in
My mountain has gone,
not gone as
other things go
but gone.
Leaving no trace
As my mountain
turns flat,
once admired
Is now walked
all over.
A fire within,
Caving to the sin,
I feel at hand,
And my tanned-
Legs begin to quake,
I feel an ache,
In my soul,
Find control,
To pursue,
What’s true,
In a world of apparitions,
And acquisitions,
I need something real,
Stabbing my side to feel,
What is reality,
Certainly not actuality.
you take me as I am
I take it as it comes
when it all starts caving in
and I start to self-combust
looking over my shoulder
your wind at my back
onward, on this trail
putting me back on track
grace and goodness flow
divine intervention wanes
over and over and over
it all ends up the same
The walls felt like it was caving in,
The coldness of the room gave me shivers,
The dimness of the room that once comforted me
Now leaves me distraught.
Stepping in, I felt a surge of anxiety;
The bad memories that I had once suppressed resurfaced.
And it felt like I was going back
To those days I've tried to forget.
My heart has its own rhythm it has its own beat it plays a song i love to keep i sing it loud from deep within and sometimes see it caving in but what people don't see is how beautiful my song plays it releases my soul from a very dark place my song is never heard and never played it just hums through my mind like a wonderful day
Form:
A weight of stress, anger and anxiety forms and I feel the world caving
I have people around me but no one is there for my saving
Yet just one person to talk to about all this is all that I’m craving
Crazy how much I keep looking for that person even though I know I have to keep waiting
(Please let me know what you think!)
I've been running for so long
Trying to be the best
But what happens when I fall
Will I not be good enough for you anymore
Will you cast me aside
What can I do to prove I'm trying to be all you want
I'm tired and I'm caving
I tell myself to keep going
I don't want to let you down
But I'm not perfect
Please just love me for me
Form:
In the deep dark night
There isn't a single light
The clouds start caving in
Like they had never been
The next thing was a miracle
It seemed so magical
A shaft of light
Struck through the thick clouds with all its might
It filled the dark night
With light so bright
The bitter darkness
Was finally overcome with brightness
Feb. 11th, 2013
life is like a jungle
you run, but you can't hide
from everything that's caving in around you
you get tangled in other people's webs
and they add to the weight of yours
you try to figure out how to get out,
how to unravel from the situation that
keep you from living,
but you remain stuck
in the middle of nowhere
waiting to be found
Everything is out of control
Caving down on me
And crushing
My skull
I try to grab hold
But everything
Swings
Out of the way
Like an acrobats
Trapeze
And I'm trying to stand firm
Trying not to fall
But the ground is swaying
Nothing will hold still
I'm knocked onto my back
Forced to stare at the sky
I want to throw up
Or perhaps...
Just die
Form:
I have weird eyes.
Like wires that connect.
Blinking at the same time as being painful.
Eating too much.
With weird, starving eyes.
Eyelashes gripping.
Pupils which are tingling.
Eyes everywhere.
Just eyes and no body.
Just eyes.
Grappling eyes.
That's what mental illness is.
The eyes.
That’s what anxiety acts like.
Caving in, horrible, weird,
Eyes.
I bent my will into the wind,
a final last rebuttal
And felt it rage against my soul,
in anger that was total
I pressed again, and then again,
and waited for an answer
It blew back hard, and harder still,
its force a rabid dancer
One last time I pushed it back,
its vortex caving in
Whose fury split in breezes tamed
—my destiny within
(Dreamsleep: January, 2020)
The Minecraft world is vast and hard
My lone puppy acts like a retard
Finally I earn
For what I yearn;
Mushroom Stew
A creeper blows up
Just my luck
What I need
What makes my eyes bead;
Mushroom Stew
Caving I go
In my inventory I stow
A full jar
Of what will make me go far;
Mushroom Stew
Everyday day I brew
To keep my life starting anew
I will keep eating it,
My precious Mushroom Stew
It was a whirlwind
Like a hurricane
Drowning me in my sleep
It was a mistake
No one knew
Maybe a secret
But still the truth
And now I hear the waves
Crashing down
Caving in the heart I gave away
…again
Vows torn down
Walls built up
And now I fade
Slowly but surely
Into a deep slumber
Praying it’s only a dream
But it’s reality
You were never loved
And now it’s over
I couldn't talk, they told me I would die if I did
Those things I saw were not to be told!
I was young with my voice stolen
The world was caving in on me
There were no safe adults, not even police!
So I prayed and I wrote!
Writing saved me, God saved me,
From the walls all around me...
The pretending to be happy...
And smiles people complimented that were not real!

Silk flaxen braids
The sapphire pools of enchantment
The bottomless look of mystery
And she twirls
Her hair lax in airstreams
A glimpse beyond that caving fringe
A curl at her cherry’s end
My eyebrows taken aback
O am I blessed to be seen!
By the beauty in the breeze
Now does she stride,
To where I stall!?
But-
She strolls past
Like the blind in a mist
Of whom she is
