In all sorts of ways.
Although I don't have...

:half:The other half of me
Explains what others see
But only few know that half
That I choke and bleed between every laugh

Matter of Soul
The world of matter bents awareness and duality,
pertaining to required dimensionality.
The mental loss by worship sense data rigidly,
quantitative measures conformity.
Reforming towards natural perfection,
which by some folks becomes a cruel intersection.
The desperation of religious handicap,
following blindly...

Rather than beyond tomorrow,
Just what I mean to you,
Whatever it may be,
Is what shall make me
Keep on living.

Just how much better
I ever made your days.
However little it...

HypocriteAll of which I hypocritically love and hate
Are the greatest guilty pleasures I enjoy too late...
All too often I refrain from the mediocrity of normalcy,
When really all I wish is to never fade to obscurity.

Poetry is Powerful“Poetry” is a most powerful instrument:
like a flute to be played.

Guys can be Shy
Who could imagine
how many guys can be shy
Handsome six-footers in
knots, their tongues tied
They see a pretty girl and
go all wobbly in the knees
Their palms clammy with sweat
their...

Social Animals“On the internet, nobody knows you’re a dog.” – Peter Steiner
We need better watchdogs
protecting silly sheep,
falling prey to dark blogs,
the fox, weasel, and creep.
The trolls, so full of bull,
delight in being mean.
The phish will pull...

Rally, Rally around me words,
We shall win,...

peace keepers
clad in black berets and boots
all camouflaged with heavy guns
their armoured jeeps in Indian file
like obedient dogs they march along
faces pale from the burning sun
peasants tender, weak and poor
gaze helpless at the peacekeepers:
what begets this...

In My Latter YearsIn my latter years
I spend much time
reflecting ( a figure-
of-speech, of course;
for there is little sheen
left to the skin for light
to beam back: and far too
many wrinkles to recall
a satisfying image)--but
I digress: as I was...
