A distinct disadvantage to not looking one's age
Young'uns don't see any signs of decay
But believe it or not
The body's changes to rot
Young'uns won't get it till they're on the last page...

A downtrodden,
Forswunk, forlorn, fortuitist
Or distrusted flurry.
Formulist, forswatt, formidable,
And excruciate person.
Exceptional, exasperate or excommunicated,
Depressed, execrate excrement for mankind,
Poor or disappointed,
Disadvantage, disavow human,
Indigestion indology....

There's no place like home
Wear with faded denim
Wilted Rose

Disadvantage displace
 polish Stone
Shadowed Safari oh no

There's no place like home
For he who rides the drones
Polished Amalgamated Steel flown

There's no place like home

you could never understand,
what we're denied 
from the vantage point
on which you stand,
your privilege

your money, power,
your cap and gown,
block this from view
when you look down,
from privilege

you cannot see, or you forget,
that all was built on
the blood and sweat 
of those that you now stand upon,
with privilege...

I gave my friend a car.
She complained it was not a good one.

I paid her rent for a year.
She resented me for that.

I gave her some clothes.
She threw them out, disgusted they did not have designer labels.

I paid for her dinners when we went out
Because she never brought her wallet.

I paid until she angrily dumped me
Because I had run out of money....

I cannot say this without missing some fragments.
What the mind reveals is too bright to paint
In words
In pictures
In song…

How I crave the expressiveness of thought
Living and true
Without the disadvantage of explanation.

I write with my mind
And when it is gone
I will write as I have always dreamed
Beyond the borders of limitation
Finally, creation comes home....

I am at a mathematical disadvantage
to you

Because as you see i have only
have 10 fingers and toes

And can only count up to 20

Whereas you seem to have
a brain with an in built calculator

Maths is one of those subject's
you either get or you don't

And you just get it whereas i don't

Unless it adds up to less than 20
and i haven't severed one of my
fingers or toes...

It's worth being afraid ...
    It is not worth being silly.

   What is written,
   only worths  when
   it's understood ...

   Be brave, only in advantage ...
   In disadvantage, it is a loss
   Certainly...

   Fear with moderation,
   it's  smarter
   than courage without measure ...

   If we recognized our mistakes,
   we would certainly be happier
   and less stupid ...!...

Old is gold,
But gold is cold.

Time is money,
But money is worry.

Night is sweet,
But sweet leads to diabetese.

Laughter is the best medicine,
But medicine is bitterest.

Mind is smart,
But smart leads to egoistic.

Therfore everything has a disadvantage,
We have to convert it to an advantage.

Coz abilities are always with us,
But we should be with abilities

A new story

Of no separation..

Stories abound

All seeming to

Reinforce the

Story of separation..

Actions and doers

Using time as

Advantage and

Disadvantage..

Stories..

Life appearing..

So it seems..

What can 

Seem to happen:

A new story calls:

Time Out..!!

Quashing separation..

Unexplainable..yet

Life as before

Appears for no one..

Feeling free......

My life sits hopelessly empty
Give me a rope I’ll hang
I can’t cope I’ve no energy
stress I don’t give a damn

Cus I gain I lose
It’s a happiness deficit 
A draining fuse 
It happens indefinite 

Selflessly helping others often
to my disadvantage 
be best if I forgot them
progress for my own vantage

Spend that effort on myself
So it’s worth not worthless 
Happiness isn’t through wealth
Good people can’t be purchased...

Please listen my soul beast.

Quiet your screams
Tuck in your wings
Your voice; it stings.

Soar high, watch my fear
Please land;
miles away from here.

Violin strings cut the tension
you stare.. I stare. We stare.
Your skin. 
gentle and fair.

Disadvantage to me;
Your heart still beating
your presence slowly fleeting
my thoughts stuck, repeating.  

Tender fingers fly 
adrenaline on high
my reason for living, the option to die....

I write for the disadvantage
in coins, 
Can I contain this feeling, feeling of rage? 
The veil on his face reveals little of the man within, 
Maimed, raped, molested by the affluent, 
And the government of the day, 
is becoming silent, 
All he did he need to pay, 
Day she thought was her breakthrough, 
She met more than she could chew, 
At the corridors of Justice....
Justice, justice, justice 
Where art thou? 
She writes helter-skelter for it hitherto...
