What? I'm not eating your roses.
I am adjusting my whiskers.
I don't care for salads anyway.
Just watching this pathetic
Excuse for a plant self-destruct....

Are also This..

But words 

May be tricky

Seeming to separate

To construct

Destruct..

But still This..

Resonance is

Possibly peace......

Self-Infliction
Explosion, implosion,
tomorrow is gone

A new self-destruct mode,
old enemies throng 

We’re now on the poster,
PUBLIC ENEMY ONE

The canaries all dead
—with zero the sum

Surviving the Storm
I tried killing myself and you said YOU STILL 
NEED ME
I asked you to take my life but you replied 
ITS TO EARLY
I tried leaving but found that the pain was 
becoming unbearable and the road was to 
tough
I'm a bomb ticking about to self destruct
What to do........

Of Life Or Limb
Smack dab in the heights 
a moment missed 
where cracks crease 
the self-destruct
unnoticed 
in the reality
that life evolves
enveloping every step
up the ladder
surveying tattered seams
costs of lovers dreams
and then you fall
or fail
to see the lessons
and what they truly mean...

The Fortress Part Ii
cont' from Part I

Are you ever truly going to find the courage to open that door
When keeping it shut only hurts you even more
If you continue to stay there without coming out
The morale of the story without a shadow of a doubt
Is that your heart and soul will soon self destruct
Behind that lonely Fortress you chose to construct...

Savages
Mentally ill chosen by a few cowards they struck;
Against fundamentals of mankind and society.

Jehad against Allah's doctrine in self destruct role;
Seek a place in heaven with innocent blood on hand?

Living in hell these cowards await final judgment,
For Allah's wrath is infinite, punishment divine:- 

"Soundless and endless."...

Storm
your storm ravages my heart
the lightening flashes from your eyes
the thunder of your voice
the hurricane force winds of the words
you hurl, cutting and deep
intended to inflict and destruct
the storm rages through the night
no protection, no shelter
and in the morning, all is calm
the storm has passed, but
not without devastating my spirit...

Premium Member The Others
The "others" are out there 
always have been
just outside the periphery of 
our rudimentary technology
one light year ahead of
our feverish-calamity..

They're a patient breed
that's their greatest strength...
the waiting game
waiting for us to
self destruct.
Then like locusts they'll descend
take the reigns

The owners of a new age garden of calamity...

Premium Member Ode To Humanity
It's the Rules of the GAME that were screwed up, 
which caused humanity to self destruct,
not the values of the global populous. 
Environment Shapes Behavior, is what humanity failed to learn,
historically era after era again and again.
They failed to learn what makes people behave as they do.  
It was the indoctrination in magazines, schools, radio, and news....

Addict
Addict or Attic?
Same difference.
Both stay high.
Both store happiness.
One burns it.  One hordes it.
Both gather more.
Both lock the door so no one
can see the mess they've become.
Hiding in the room behind
memories, a dusty fog of what life
used to be, could be and is.
Eventually they both die.
One had too much.  One could never get enough.
Both self-destruct....

Premium Member I-Illusion
The aspect of me, that’s identity, is here manifest, for an earth life test. The I-illusion, egoic confusion, is a thought construct, doomed to self-destruct. This recognition in meditation, let’s me here awake, and ego forsake. Ceasing all thought flow, tranquil heart mellow, choosing to concur, I stoop to conquer. 10-July-2022

Watch what comes near
When stillness cheers


Go deeper then
Beyond mere when


A timeless face
Bestows fine grace


Seek to know feel
A touch that heals


Voice simple choice
In steadfast poise


Words now instruct
In mad destruct


Construct sad draft
In motley draft


Heed time and space
With drifting ace

puzzles puzzles
they write in rhyme 
encrypted messages
poisoned in hate
guesses in the dark
surmising
unable to say the truth
denying
hiding
play nice
yet still
there is the knife
Friendship taken for more
what awful gore
innuendos galore

the truth is out
read the encryptions
read the lines
following suit
following suit
this message
will self destruct

A Feeling of People
A grace among men, is a Valor not known to others,
A pride among us, is a feeling of trust,

We strive and push what we know,
Our bodies break and bend,
We want to keep our friends,

The hurt, the pain, the destruct unto ourselves,
It is what keeps us thriving for happiness among life,

A feeling, A thought, My weight in us, I will always know, No matter how far i go, 
My eternal Light is shown....

Tron
Energized by light
run with power
The opponents become pawns on a grid
A universal world in our imaginations
Spinning at the speed of light
Not a gerbil running on it's wheel

Made by a creator
Which one day will self destruct
Vanishing among a sea of stars
An eclipse of a moon
One like no other
after walking out of the game alive
Trying to make it back home
before you hear the final
Game Over...

Words
Words are our mortal enemy
they destruct the inner most part 
of the human soul
Cut like sharp scissors and paper
just one swift snip and it's a wound
 wounds heal,
but memories remain like scar tissue
that you simply cannot see.
We are spendthrifts with words
we squander and hide them
but sometimes they escape
and burn down all the firehouses
the ones far upon the sloping hills
be careful how you play...
