What for
we came
so far,so fast
to self-destruct?
There is no escape
from the Milky Way....

   —when veracity holds its sway

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....

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

(The New Room: March, 2021)...

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........

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...

Fill all voids with love, oh hermit
All else mere thought construct 
Judging neither fault nor merit
Let ego self-destruct

In sync with love’s bliss beat 
Our vibrant heart upbeat
Embrace each soul we meet

Head-heart hand in glove 
Fill all voids with love

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...

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."...

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...

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 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....

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.

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

IN YOUR MIND

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...

Worry wears a face
Odd and out of place
Pain grates time and space


Self-destruct stands tall
Confronts bitter gall
Growing big from small


A tiny spark flares
In silly affair
Lies tinge the strange air


Drama in wrong gaze
Fashions bitter maze
Worry sculpts sure craze


Watch fear blooming fear
Drowning all good cheer
Watch how faith dies here

Heartless she is, seemingly bliss
She always knew the button to push
Allowing me to self-destruct by her kiss
Evil seems to always lurk in a bush

Can you see her, one who doesn’t care
She held me tight, with a knife in her hand
I now know the darkness in the air
Coming from one of Satan’s inner band

The end has come and gone
No more painful injuries
All I have left are the memories alone
Thank goodness I’m free!

Oh so rapidly everything slips through your fingertips
Things so out of reach 
One moment you have it all
The next you just don't 
One second you're doing just fine
The next you're spinning into oblivion
One moment you have control
The next it's all lost 
Weeks pass, you still don't know the day 
You're on self destruct mode
There's no panic button
Just the self destruct
Oh so tempting. 
I'll just leave your hand hoovering....

Self destruction
my one true enemy
stands before me 
bold & blatently

Open warfare
on this battle ground 
of me
fighting against my morals
and all humanity.

an open bottle on the floor
one pill to ease the pain
I begin to self destruct
I see and know
I live my life in vain.

I continue on this path
spinning downwardly
self destruction 
the road to nowhere
I fall willingly

A broken promise
A crocodile tear
leaving me hopeless
quietly in fear....

The thoughts we entertain when we’re alone
mostly greed of what we seek to acquire,
which ego refines, attempting to hone,
doomed to self-destruct in destiny’s fire,
for our fears shroud each object we aspire.
Thus, oh weary hermit, choose cessation,
choosing deep peace by heart’s resonation,
negating all cravings that are transient,
at all times in joyous celebration,
ensconced thus in the vibrant bliss current.

Oh worthy lama, know God alone is;
all else that’s manifest a thought construct.
Lower mind delusion, blocks the bliss fizz,
thus best if fears and desires self destruct,
that we may see God, within body crust.
For too long now has light divine been veiled,
with soul luminescent in dungeons jailed.
Let’s end trauma bonding, by being still,
no longer by ego spawned fears assailed,
ceasing resisting, as heart’s dark voids fill.
