They watch, they wait
to see my fate.
never adding nor subtracting
hauntingly and numb.
They wait in the wings
of indifference
to announce my outcome.

Sums are far
Some are near
Distances
Just doesn't add up
Subtracting sums trust

Not I have if nothing gain
In addition to subtracting
Leaving less leaving nothing else again stil

Adding
peculiar
subtracting
never
laws
of something
(besides physics)
has to
wants to
needs to
improve
velocity
is present
and that very force
pushes
the dead weight
forward
until
it can't sit still anymore
because
it has to
it's got to move
or else
it dies

Haversack hopes bring bitter crack
Next to nothing is brought back
Recalled promises all are lacking
Adding nothing but subtracting
Public messages are attacking
Better dreams start retracting
The finish line is protracting
People gather and start reacting

Bit by bit I build my life
But it never becomes a structure
Where I can put my head in rest
Lay down my soul in peace
Neither has it become a calculation
Though I keep adding and subtracting
Till date I did the sum forty times
Nowhere have I seen any perfection
Nor any proper displacement of it has been seen
Only it keeps revolving around
Like a true buffoon

Remaining paths on the red vermilion
Seeks remedy of imprisoned life zone
Digging out the final residual den for breath
Washes the paths of rest life warning fate
Yet cloudy summer sky starting plough hopes
Will back all joyful times with relative crops
We are all together without anyone lacking
Will return to souvenir field subtracting nCoV-19

Why do you act like you own me,
be careful,
confidence is an unequal attitude you know,
it can turn you into a violent creature,
questioning not authority, nor yourself,
yet confronting everyone,
with confident paranoid ranting,
star spangled banter,
rocking the boat at any cost,
adding science fiction to fact,
then subtracting desperate tries to turn cog insecurity,
into a star mask.

Poets and plastic surgeons-whittling away
adding here, subtracting there
bandaging a verse or stitching a face
trying to make plain into pretty
perfection just a small slice away.
A masterpiece is what they seek
A mountain of trash for every gem
cutting and slicing stretching and trimming
seeking the perfect profile or seamless rhyme,
but filling the world with rivers of gibberish
and mirror obsessed Frankensteins.

“Tom, You Shouldn’t Be Here”
New Years Day 2017
Miracle Man
10/2/2024
At birth God assigned me
an unknown expiration date.
God has seen fit to bless me
with my date coming late.
But an inaudible clock is busy
deducting from my earthly time.
Subtracting each earthly second
God has allotted for my lifetime.
I’ve faced serious hurdles
that Doctors said were my end.
But only God knows the reason
He chose my time to extend.

I feel the tide
Pulling
And tugging
My heart
My head
My body
Into two
What do I do
Where do I go
When everything's
A choice I have
To make
I feel the seasons
Splitting
And tearing
My emotions
My thoughts
My actions
Into four
What to be
Where to flee
From former
Yous and mes
I feel the days
Dividing
And subtracting
My hours
My minutes
My life
Into seven
What to know
Where to blow
Away where things
Don't materialize
So easily

I do not know?
Basically I am a self visionary
Chasing dreams that are dead or unwanted
An illusionist. ......
Subtracting the real from my reality
I could more or less be chasing rainbows
I seek to unravel the mystery within the mystery
Always forgetting to actually solve the mystery
Some have come to the understanding that I am insane
not that I disagree at all
For Einstein was also considered insanely mad.
