Writer's Block

Writer's block.
The chopping block.
All words have stopped,
But yet the clock
Lets hours drop.

The writer's blocked.


America

There is always hope
In my America!

I can dream
In America!

I can be what
I want
In America!

I love
America!!

Ripple

Waves of time
Rip through sands
Sands of love
Sands of war
Sands of birth
Sands of death
Till the sands
Are hollowed

Sad

In the learning of the world and it’s pain, it’s rules and it’s sadness
I’ve unlearnt myself 
And that is the true tragedy.

Untitled #202 / Squirrel

 Why did you have to do that?”
“Do what?”
“Run over that [dead] squirrel?”
“Because I’m heartless”
“What?”
”Huh?”


Sweet Relief

Balanced on a wire so sharp ---
I wince each time I breathe ---
A sudden exit from my life,
would bring such sweet relief.

Nothing To Add

I think about what I had.

Why I end up feeling so bad.

Wondering why I feel so sad.

But I guess there's nothing left to add.

The Lover's Tale

I wanted to leave the world behind,
But she said, "I want our story to be romanticized".
So I buried us alive, side by side.

You're dying

You're dying.... 

I'm Cancer,
No denying.
I'm happy
No lying,
Years fighting,
Years trying,
I love that,
You're dying.

Untitled #251 / True Love

“Ah! But I thought you were dead!”
“Death cannot stop true love,
it can only delay it awhile.”
What happens to a dream deferred?

i am sorry i say

Crimson Moon

Under the crimson moon
I see you
Pale as white and red as blood
With my knife
Through your heart
Now go to hell
For all of eternity.

Darkness

Darkness comes and darkness goes.
Or is it here to stay?
A new dawn comes accompanying the day.
Yet still the darkness lingers on.

Kabadi Wala

Why do I fill the pages wheir 
There is no news of you... 
A smile kabadi wala kabadi ley lo 


With love all

“Through rumbling seas I shalt plow…”

Untitled #323 / "why Did You Stop Shaving?", Pt. Ii

“Why did you stop shaving, Jesse?”
It is my attempt to project a façade
of masculinity in the face of rejection
by the opposite sex

                       sundry

                       sweets

One Drop

I am but one drop of water
Soaking in the knowledge of the sea
Swelling amid things great and small
Through the vastness of eternity

Stand Still, But Hooked Up

'flit or grit
never will i quit
find thee a space to fit
hopeful target i wish to hit
If determination happens to fall from it wit'

musings uv love

    ...from mine
         engram
           leak
       stupefying
      az the wine

Arrive

When I arrive
I walk throught the sand
Then through the pebbles
I jump on the rocks
Then the mountain was complete
