Premium Member Cages

Rise! 
You are 
outgrowing 
that smaller shell; 
Smash breakable glass! 
It’s not fragile;
Cages were  
never 
real.

Premium Member Leave Highschool Behind

Highschool drama queens
belong back between those walls

There's a reason we grow up
leaving it all behind

Outgrowing awkward teenage years
abandoning childish wild theatrics

Worn Out Vessel

Replenished thru the night	
Regaining positive light 

The days negative power
Outgrowing the greater by the hour

Seeking truth and knowledge
Making better soul to acknowledge

Teaching the creator all there is to know
Where are all the positive souls

Drained from the days light
Replenished thru the night

When the negativity has taken it toll
Can I be returned to my soul

Merry Christmas To Family and Friends

To my friends and family

You are the ones who let me in
When I need an Inn
Even when I have to stay in a kraal
You will still make that call
On this day of joy and love
I wish you happiness
As described by the beatitudes
Happiness that blossoms in any weather
Outgrowing weeds lashed together
Another day will follow this day
I pray the spirit with stay this way
Merry Christmas

Secrets Can'T Be Told In the Dark

Information
that makes worldly changes
is a secret
is buried
and dug up later in the ages
please keep this secret
do not tell in the dark
make sure you write backwards
so they can't glance at your art
question yourself
question us
question them
are what we make man-made?
or are we man-made men?
outgrowing our brains
states
planet
and homes.
we are mold to this world,
constructed of bones.

The Shrinking Season

The Shrinking Season
by Michael R. Burch 
 
With every wearying year
the weight of the winter grows
and while the schoolgirl outgrows
her clothes,
the widow disappears
in hers.
