Never again to know fresh air,
Combing worms from my matted hair.
No one remains who’d ever care —
Tied to my grave, this lonesome baire.
I must escape the sun’s harsh glare,
Tread carefully down crumbling stair,
Descend into my crypt just there,
Where I sit alone in dark despair.
Upon my ancient worm-eaten chair,
Inside my vaulted charnel house lair,
Such a sad and accursed affair —
Never to rest, always aware.
This kind of death is so unfair:
No converse, no song, no whispered prayer.
A thousand lifetimes in disrepair,
Unattended, solus, solitaire.
Harshest sentence beyond compare,
Caught in this endless undeath snare.
Naught to do but eternity stare —
And comb the damn worms from my hair.

An owl descends
from cloudy grey skies,
Dropping alongside
a single tear.
It dares not speak to the owner -
only keeping company.
Quiet, solitary company.
It knows what tears are –
for when alone,
the tears of its mother skies above
are all it can call its own.

Lonely Heart
separated, alone, self
Unescorted unchaperoned by solus single
on my lonesome
no one but myself
My soul thrives
just unattended

Being alone is not been left alone
It's doesn't mean solus
One is not being companionless
Left over the feel that unaccompained.
Alone which not only means lonesome
There is something beyond the lonely state
It should be searched by one's own self
There is lot beyond the hermitic.
You are your own companion
You are at the line of extrovernt
Not introvernt
Time to understand one's own self.
Not deserted, detached, sequestered..
But can be socialized itself
So "Feel Alone" but projected to be unique like a crown.

guide deceased on their journey,
witness teary eyes, turn blurry
watch over eulogy speech,
offering authentic peace
vibrant, fiery complexion
wavering hue protection,
assisting ghost invitations
observe vital declarations,
seal high status documents
letters, scrolls, for the president
crimson, custom made stamps
back when candlesticks lit lamps,
religion exchange light for money ~
honour souls, lost down on one knee
centrepieces chaperone romance,
Capturing a tender glance
scented aromatherapy
meditation, calm, serenity
comforting memorial shrines
befriends a glass of blush wine,
sheen lustre uplifts sorrow ~
hope for a brighter tomorrow

coming from the streets, where you might have to rob a nigga just to eat, I sit back and I think where is God at, Iam searching for that spirit, my people lost and don't hear it, the people are brought and sold before they are born, since you not from heaven, you can't understand things about heaven, wisdom is my weapon, love my protection, it's world war 3, understand it's all about the money can't you see, same reason niggas die in dese streets, a brotha's anger turns into a banger, aimed at a brotha you perceive as a stranger, we so quick to use the trigger finger, uncle Sam is the real danger, our minds are consumed with earthly thoughts, preventing us from perceiving of the interstellar realm from which our solus were brought, freedom is something that is not taught

He of the Flame withholds his blade
Liquid gold disks drip down from the tip
In total there was six
The earth was pregnant with a brand new soul
Two of the disks the mother stole
And gave them to her new child as eyes
He carried them with him through each life
He shines radiant beneath the light
A beauty in the shadows
Like a painting
Fades into the night
Forever known

"Are you Quill?," She asked abeam.
"Yes, of course! - mostly - when the Muselle`
visits oft'n'r upon, as my wont!
"Well, here!, this will surely help at the Magic...
And IT, Voila!, was in hand, a thrust-unmistakable!
Blunt, bulbous & sleek, a slick Recife,
this Turquoise and Silver stick.
Is IT "Blue?" Is IT "Black?"
Pray, "Blue-Black!?" Wow! -
A Sole instrument for Playing in the Indigene,
Soul Colors of the Earth! - I nearly crack to Self.
Swirled-embedded, b'neath the haute Baekelight-Crystal
like a LavaLamp-Entemp. IT's messages of ambidexsrait-
Threads, Mola thru splayed fingers. O' Charitable Mage
You have brought to Life!... I Write Handcrafted!
