      Can’t fly, no wings
        no voice, can’t sing

      Can’t act, no passion
        wardrobe's out of fashion

      For music, no ear

Little wings, as if a bitty bird tries to fly away,
but I clutch this childish muse whose morphed teeny-tiny,
amused at how quickly time flies and how words escape me.

Will Sleep ever find me?

Isn’t sleep supposed to be restful?
Isn’t sleep supposed to be calm?
Sleep is a time my mind goes off the deep end, replaying like a broken record.
Sleep is a time the panic and anxiety creep in, startling me awake.
Being abruptly awakened by such intense anxiety, feeling nauseous but like you're being choked at the same time.
The

Premium MemberThoughts Running Free 4

Thoughts unraveling like loose strings on a ball,
then rewound to make useable opinion.

Past and future lose all their intrigue,
in the clearness and fulfillment of a present moment.

The intensity and immediacy of a brilliant thought,
becomes calm in the presence of an epiphany.

One’s time is truly blessed,
when passion and purpose are in each moment.

Ask me a question

To all users of A.I. I say,
while I write with my OWN brain each day,
I find you pathetic.
Your license poetic
should be canceled and taken away.

Velvet Galaxies

Velvet Galaxies  
Blue and pink relish velvet 
Sky clothed in neon sporadic 
Milky-ways are subtle 
Clouds dance violin through calm storms 
Velvet galaxies brush crimson  
Radiant smiles captured 
Oceans whispers loudly 
Mid-night horizons are breath taking true eternity 
Zealousness full filled 
Devotion human kind humbled 
Sapphire flames azure in the nightly 
Stars through

Poetry Misunderstood

Poetry Misunderstood  
Instrumental music flows through me 
Coffee is soothing 
Writing poetry is therapeutic 
I didn’t invent the pen 
Mind racing, document waves perspective 
A melody journey 
Paper writer purity 
For we are misunderstood 
Deep thinkers 
Limitless potential 
Creative sculptures 
Vision absurdities 
Ink bleeding 
Candles burning 
Beautiful scenery 
Pictures travel photography 
Paint a master

The essence of our existence is eternal
So dead or alive, we always survive
We continually come into a form
Or out of a form either physical or spiritual

We live continually existing for eternity
Either in a physical form or spiritual form
Our eternal form is spiritual
Our host in the physical world can die or be destroyed

Spirit from a state

WEALTH

Wealth can be wonderful and a curse, it can make you do stuff that is not nice. 
It can control your every move, making you into a slave for use. 
Wealth needs attention and needs more, more money to grow and control all of the earth. 
Wealth is a manmade substance it controls the flow

You wrote extraordinaire poetry 
Can’t fathom, so many 
Creative thinking 
Creative writing 
Cultivating pen in hand 
Thoughts racing to the ends of the earth 
A small desk to write on 
So long ago

Havoc Manuscript

Havoc Manuscript  
Rook goes horizontally and vertically 
Poems written with no boundaries 
A bishop slides diagonally 
With anxious hand writing 
Absurd mind deeply rasing 
Rigid thoughts through empty spaces 
Solitude toward hemlock flowers 
A havoc manuscript 
Time line is over due 
With poetic efforts 
Written fluent wing letters 
Slumber into the night 
Short stories
