Imprisoned anxiety
A hefty encumbrance
You either shake it off, or...
be crushed under it

Steppin’ Off
My Platform

Will
Miss you,
It’s only so long
And not a swan song
I have projects awaiting
They need some attention
An untenable encumbrance
Far too many to mention
So I’ll be takin’ time out
Or bound to get worse
September First
Steppin’ off
Wildly, comes the drumming of frustration against my soul.
Dangerously is the fall into despair.
Mindless is the thoughts of repair.
Encumbrance are the hands that reach for me for declaration.
Severed is my heart with ruination.
Copyright under Labyrinth of Life
Whether I choose the status quo,
Whether I determine to let go,
Offer me compassion,
I accept with open arms,
Calm my silent desperation,
Comfort my tethered heart,
Steady my trembling hand -
It’s not an action I take lightly,
But with a heaviness of soul,
Not an encumbrance thrust upon me,
But a choice I beg to make,
I plead benevolence enfold me,
So that I don’t die alone.
The divinity of art
hiding in the folds
Draping o’er the multitudes
placing time on hold
Its pristine encumbrance
so gently it calls
Speaking to our purity
transcending the small
The divinity of art
in all of its forms
Its music seeks to woo us
its canvas adorns
And once it gains entry
our emptiness hides
Eternity surrenders
—and Heaven presides
(The New Room: May, 2023)
The encumbrance of
life
Copious and
never-ending
A leaching
gangrenous wound
In need of
dismemberment
From his torpid soul
The medicinal
elixirs have raped
the mind
And replaced it with
a dense syrup
That makes
cognition, onerous
He cares for nothing
Feels nothing—is
nothing
A means to an end
Has him captivated
Fixated on the task
Relief is at hand
But he lacks the
strength and courage
I have no hope,
I have no dreams
I have no ambition
Remove the encumbrance from around me
and set my spirit
I want to live and breathe fresh air
And share joy and pleasure for the rest of the year
Please come and journey with me around the globe
And make spirit whole
Together we will make the best business
and build that unique structure
come and hold my hands
and be my lifelong investment
and special Partner
Guilt is a heavy load
A conscience can only carry
For so long
Before it collapses under
It's unwieldy encumbrance
A pressure on the lungs
Pushing out air, threatening
To smother and deflate them
Completely of oxygen

Love
took me
from the WORLD -
realms of woe . . .grief
glee pours without encumbrance. . .snag - mirth.
" Bestowing LOVE much - taken for granted "
why should life seems
atrocious
ludic...
" WHY "????
