Roses

Arrogance and confidence swirling
Such close hues

Paying the price of being known to collect beauty
A mannequin's proposition:
Live life or stagger through parts
Glimpses of lucidity through a veil 
Wry smiles passing by
Reach out before the fog descends

A frozen kind of beauty
Steam from the swelter
Paint the canvas you have been given
To make the hues your own
Lest you lose
It
Before you wish for it to be lost

Analyst

Life is hard. I must follow ten comics, follow the lives of three shows and ten books, create imaginary scenarios. 

Compared to this diversity, what does life offer?
Why work for moments, for love, when you can open a book or show and see them, feel them? Why create scenarios that already exist?

How I take care of myself matters not, those worlds will exist and all I need to be able to do is consume them. If the goal of life is to see, there is no need for me to do the experiencing personally.

Ignore the squeeze of the darkness at night, your days are so lovely that it matters not.

---

Life is hard, I must follow the people and the trends around me, and build the sequence of experiences and impacts I want.

Life is something I wish to look back on fondly. By creating, I preserve a part of myself to share. I can see things that have not been seen before. 

How can you be sure the love you are seeing between characters is the same as love between yourself and another? How can preordained beauty compare to organic beautiful chaos? If your goal in life is to see, when will you have seen enough? What will you do when it is time to eat, to live? 

Embrace the darkness, as it is a gift you have been allowed to experience.

Windborne

Bones of love that were ground
Spinning between worlds
Only seeing through memory

Locked into seriousness by a perception
Playful spirit awaiting realms to explore
Whimsical freedom can be found and made

A spirit a fae a beautiful shape
How would a jester do in a courtroom
A bee in an assembly line
Doing as they wish
Aligning or finding alignment

Spindling chalice
A crystal tree spanning
A nymph peering, tapping, murmuring
Scattered fruits
Can change to peaches or apples

Rest is not death, but stillness cripples playful joy
Amen

Swaying To the Sound

Have you ever felt from a song

A song that reminded you how you can live
The rush of the wind, the desire to climb
A quickly-building monument to the beauty of creation

How quickly a mood changes with a play

The sorrow of loss, a lament to the sky 
for what was not lost to you
what you may never be lucky enough to lose

A mournful numbness, a malady of words, a sea to be swallowed by

An arrogant strut behind what they have done and claim to do

A hyperactive child in a candy store

An invitation to someone else's moment, a happy party

A strut in saying something how it is, sauntering up to your boss's reddened face

A spontaneous guffaw from a line so out of place

A dance in a language you cannot understand 

Siphoned emotions from founts 
Some people urging you to drink from
Some urging you to bathe and not drink, to not feel
Some that were left and coyly watched
Some that were abandoned
Some that were trapped in amber

How could where we live, where we choose to drink, not say a lot about us?
Such a pure crystallization of what is so slippery to say

Formless 2

A dank cavern
Unlit torches on the walls
   Some light easier than others
You bring a compass
   Drawing you through the inky darkness
You sense little with just yourself
Armed with recognition
   of the ground
   of yourself
Most compasses grow obsolete
As you find more than they can point you to

Air Conditioning

The breeze of AC, the murmur of conversation, a hearty bustle. A cocoon built of gifts, fused by will. Comfort, warm touches, the caress of the past. A place to worship. A place to build, to return you with gifts of your own. 

I spurned your love and am sorry everyday.

The constant flow of AC, hushed tones. Frantic silence, pretending there is no Outside. Alone or not, it matters not; A cage with light filtering in. The faded memories of olive branches, of sad smiles. Stuffing oneself. Pretending you can't fit through the bars. Death cannot hold many together at once. They remember. 

How does a cage differ from a protective cell
How can silence be comforting or frantic
Whose love was spurned
Why

You are awaited

1:22

Hiding under tables
Calling someone hitler
Church foods and neutered flirting
Alone freshmen year
Walking in on friends, hanging with 
fiddling on videos numbing with food
1:10 blink 1:20

underlined lonely eyes
at a school for what I may like
leaving loved ones for a time by convenience
1:20 blink 1:30
Queitly alone, friends living
While I was unwilling
Stress growing, health failing, eyes shutting
1:30 blink 1:40
Listless lifeless wantless
---
blink
blink
blink blink blink blink blink beeeeeeeeeeep
Oh
Hi
Whats up youre such a cool guy
It's 1:20 yet what will you do with your time
Can meet some peeps, find a will
Make some love make some food make some time
Oh hey it's 1:22
That seems like it's pretty new to you
Welcome Home 
<3

Marred Connections

Freeloading
Taking what was given by someone else for something else

A gift with a tinge of obligation
Tacit codes

From the animal that is me
To the ungrateful optimizer
A love of expectation

Is it a kiss if it's unwilling
branded by tears
A hand outstretched that stretches less and less
Adjusting from a partner to an attribute
And back

Can I love as a shell
How to fill if not to receive
From self or others the mechanisms of the Other
I am only part of me
A shell can be built or blasted
But tis one part of the many

I cannot see what I must
But that doesnt stop many

A partner without action is not a partner, just an externality
To use is violent but it can meet needs
The pain of the prisoner's dilemma from the good friend
Petrifying comes with tears
And prayers of awakening
Such is the joy of coming back home
a field a landscape a state an air an aura a friend

The pain of pulling your hand away and the joy of accepting it back

Knowing something has changed and acknowledging it
The bravery of seeing it as marred by good memories

Enough

Lets go lets go lets go lets go
See and greet and meet and be
Do and say and be ok
A ghostly damocles escorted away
Leaving lucid merriment to save the day

Christmas tree christmas tree
how you sway just for me

It's so cold
My artificial warmth cant keep up
When real meets fake real will win

Blue light strains the eyes
Screens at night damage sleep cycle
Get sunlight to start your day
Exercise daily
Eat well

To fuel well, but fueling enough is enough 
If what you do is not

Glad Gallows

Show me how you tie the knot
   Wow, great!
Does it fit your head?
   It would suit you!
Are your legs tired?
   Don't you want to rest them?
   Don't you trust yourself to overcome anything?
Don't you trust me?
