May we be blessed live in a world:
where we build bridges instead of walls

Premium Member Pandemonium, On Fire

Listen to poem:
Pan-Pan, the demons have jumped,
Ship on fire, smoke engulfing.
It's Demonium here! But, we're coping
for now. Hoping in hell 
we can beat fire back to pan.

Premium Member BEAUTIFUL DESTINATIONS

A hope that I’m now clinging to…
when it comes to individuals, state or nations….
is that:
Sometimes the most difficult roads
can lead to the most beautiful destinations

Coping

Good always betrays
         (me??)
     Finches to burn the Air!
         (in the upper atmosphere. . .)
     Sloth opens the freezer;
     Drops smooth ice Cubes into booze.

Premium Member Hassles

hassles

i’m tired of coping
i just want to explode
and be free
and be me

and most times 
i want to be
free and be me 
with you

why is freedom
sometimes
such a hassle?

Big Apple Bite

The Republicans are all hoping
You forgot all about Trump's groping
But New York women
Are like a lemon*
Sugar daddies sweeten the coping!


*excluding Ilene, of course!

Waiting

Hoping, pleading, watching, waiting, Coping with the games I'm playing. Mad that I'm 
Straying. I'm not the same. I'm disobeying. I hear every word they are saying. Stop 
preaching. Start Praying.

Coping With Life's Madness Is Fantastic


We secure trust where guiless love does laugh, 
That seems so caring on others bahalf... 
Yet life wants us to concur 
With deceit glaringly blur-
Far away programmed heuristics on graph.

Premium Member Lit By Love

there’s a silence somewhere that listens and hears

that feels all our pain through the gift of our tears

that helps us to see in that dark which we hide

by shining a light - lit by love - deep inside.

Its Not You

I saw a girl, just like you.

She looks just like you.
Beautiful just like you.
Smart just like you.
Sophisticated just like you.
Wonderful must like you.

Falling in love again...
I realized it's not you.

The Glue of Tears

Peace
on earth -
hollow words
in my ears.  Pain
and violence stain
the daily news.  Trying
to make sense of senseless acts
I grow numb - coping with extremes,
Wondering if broken shards of peace
can be made whole using  the glue of tears.

Intelligence Over Emotion

Intelligence over emotion 
When the heart is broken 
Allow the brain too open 

When feelings harm 
the thoughts are coping 
Intelligence over emotion 

Allow your brain to open 
When your heart is broken
Intelligence over emotion

Inner Monologue

Are you with me
Don’t you ever want to shout
Minor maybe major form of turets
No offence meant but how else to explain
Coping with people talking such rubbish and tripe
How possibly am I supposed to keep quiet
Such boring annoying resonant voices

For a Busy Geisha for another left over moonlight

A streak of moonlight, a mystic long, narrow lonely light
A balcony, hung up with an absolute emptiness. No one. None.
I was trying to find coping in strumming, sensing, palpable clairvoyance.
A streak of moonlight, a mystic long, narrow lonely night.

Transferred Energy

<
Swimmers don't sink until they lose ATP - transferred energy, warming the waters that will soon encase them. You are no different - sucking in the energy I continuously emit. Someday, I admit, you will be the warm waters I drown in

Coping Mechanisms

Inherited or 

Developed 

Disruptive or 

Destructive 

Whatever your way 

Of getting through the day 

Know you're not alone 

Know that it's okay

For the beast is strong 

But you are too 

You have more strength 

Than you think you do

Cows Can Nearly Say Moon

As i languish in your lunar lick
moonbows hovering in petrol scented skims
coping with copious crescent chapters
Fooling its full face with greying mists that etch like moving scars and wrinkles
Sat in your light, keep me watching while slowly stealing seconds
