The Bridge Above The Rivers Bend

Train bypassing just over the rivers bend
Sturdiest and unpromising of bridges, carry my feet along your lumber
Steal away the time I should be an honorable member of society
Keep me as your own and offer me company as you do the passing trains

Just before the sunrise do your wood beams greet the world, before those of the sun can
Eerily so do your shadows beautifully haunt weary folk in moonlight
But I stand unafraid and I walk along you, most enchanting bridge of pure delight

Outstretched arms and heightened ground consume my presence
Perhaps I will greet the river below, blow a cherished kiss
And dream of flowing with her as the fish flow by and by
Greeting all the places along the way I've yet to see
Scheming of making way to connecting streams and many the woodsy place

It is solely me now, guided under constellations and starlight
One with nature you could say, and so then I am not alone
I have met the river and jumped aboard, no more dreaming now
Souring like a bird through endless currents of this waterway's love

Held Together Like Daisy Chains

pluck me like a ripened fruit from the garden
that the sun shone on early in the morning
and you would sigh in relief at the harvest
because i was good to you

see me as fondly as the first buds of spring
unleashing their insides to the world 
how your tongue savors its fruit 
like a parched desert flower but i am the flower
i am the fruit, of a cactus desperate for thirst

the day held us together like daisy chains
and watched as we wilted in each others arms
like afraid adolescents in hiding
but we weren’t afraid, we were perfectly made

the haste of your flavored breath brushes
the hairs of my skin and turns them upside down
facing the profile of you & you’re unmoving gaze
making me turn grey as a statue in utter awe

the tension of your temples is a temple 
for the movements i will make for your 
proclivity, like an unleashing of lustful captivity
sink your head down into the palms of mine 
for them to fondle the contents you’re craving

as the moon changes phases i shall not
stray away from the nearness of you
and you could care less about the weather
or the state of the world when beside me

like the flesh of an angel on earth you 
cut beneath me and breach my ichor to feed like
a parasitic pinworm inching closer to my bulging heart

Finding A Lost Smile

She no longer felt taunted by the race of it all
Could not sit around and watch a life fly by, before her eyes
An unkept promise used to keep her up at night
Sense of trust - absent, lingered on like strayed kites in the wind

The media did nothing but consume and show all the ways she "could not" be
If a fellow questioned "are you lonely dear one?" she would have cried but,
What once was unwavering to me now has ability to unravel and become untrue 

Forsaken applications on frazzled devices,
Why is it that you demand my time as if it is not rightfully mine?
Foe friend, connector of worlds, distractor of all things, oh my days have you used me
How delighted I would be to distance you and rid all of this

Solace in leaving, solace in dreaming
Bound by nothing, fate forever freeing
Spirit grants me strength through days of disarray
Much like those of today, where my patience seems left astray

I've come back up for air, and am standing amongst the trees 
I am far out where no one can hear
Finding a lost smile

Are We Too Much?

I’ve been breathing in the fumes of my existence and expectedness for some time now…
Far too long because this thing I cannot place has had unending hold over me.

I’ve been realizing things lately, and witnessing my own lies…
That I tell myself to feel sane or rather inflict a false state of comfortability.

These realized lies are remnants of learned behaviors and skewed mindsets taught to me and to us.
Said teachings emanate lack of love we collectively feel and so we bleed.

Yet bandaid solutions could never mask our open wounds.
Having lied dormant for years, or fresh needing much tending.

Crying out for touch and care and maybe a piece of validation here and there,
But something is better than nothing right?

Do not show the depths of your scars and sores too much now, you’ll scare away the neighbors
And the people you pass on streets who couldn’t care less but you swear they do.

And don’t laugh too hard there, others may stop and stare, and make false assumptions that you cannot bear.

Extend your manners wherever you may go,
For you’ll be ridiculed and considered rude you let them slip through.

But remember to smile and persist in good spirits,
We can’t have the truth made known that your darkness is hiding and piling the shelves.

Become a bit softer now, all to prove some frightened false version.
Afraid to speak your truth, uncover your eyes.

I wonder where all the love is…
We’ve been normalizing to save away for romance or just our circle of friends.

Can you see the world’s lies?
And those of your own we sometimes can hide behind?
Do they speak in familiar tongue?
Can we silence them?
Will we mend?

Grass Fields

I dream of lying days long
In grass fields full of birdsong
So that i might sing
Or touch the inside of my being

My awakened state these days is fair
So why must i stay in it,
A society designed not to care?

Perhaps i’ll just tread lightly,
Or rather share that i’m quite perplexed
Not anymore showing my previous signs of despair 
But believe you me have i been there
Burdensome days of which i know best

It is in nature where i reside
And only there i can call home
Your brick houses, neighborhoods
Never there was i understood

I Have Become Stale

My knees held tightly to my chest,
I thought the storm clouds were miles off in the distance, 
Of someone else's distress.

But morning came, and the storm remained.
No water nor washing could wipe away the stains of sorrows
And restlessness from my covers-
My detrimental haven...

I could rot away here, the irony being I already do.
What treasures can shake me from my trance?
Little seems to speak to me anymore- 
I have become stale.

Invoke Change, Shake It's Hand

Close your dream filled eyes
Quiet your anxious, loud mind
Run wild from the intrusive taunts
Fixating, gossiping over you in silent,
Yet understood tongue.

Let the lies of yourself fall through 
Unravel the programming stringing you along.
Step in surety, embrace the unknown
Befriend uncomfort - watch yourself grow.

Beneath your sadness and tears of dew
Rests a welcoming child your heart once knew.
Greet them in play, spark up a chat
Let dance the flow of life as it once was.

Invoke change, shake it’s hand
Say hello to strangers you may never know.
Spend days away from civil happenings
Only passable roads lie between you and freedom -
From all that is truly needed.

Myriad Of Words

A myriad of words could be written today
Ten thousand more tomorrow and onwards
I will never cease the art of writing
Cannot bear the notion of holding my tongue about:

The liminal spaces who cannot speak
The ancient lands longing to be felt and seen
Our earth mother who cares so much for all
Our innate everlasting worth that can at times feel depleted or small

I channel endless words and my senses express
I welcome the all encompassing
I honor the ebbs and flows
The metaphorical deaths that transform and morph 
I witness my consciousness ponder
And hope to surround others in auric fields of love and light

Severed Latency

I am not hardened by your strong sense of will 
And i am not weakened by any fragility of spirit
I am not stood still, awaiting my becoming – i am flowing
And no longer do i fear the ingrained teachings of which you still hold dear

I have retreated and enveloped in shadow — far too long
Once entangled by your distorted webs i could not see coming
And then at night i lied latent, a lingering state of questioning
Cocoon of unease-full sleep in the woven bed you had made

A saga of indifference used to evince itself in plenty an instance
Namely, i wore clothing of poise and purity to gratify your expected modesty of me
And hid behind prayer and knelt to save me from the art of unsanctioned vulgarity 
Would you now say i have plucked from the garden of forbidden fruit
Since i fail to follow the faith leading to your promised land?

False promises have propelled me forward towards honest grace
And sincerity now speaks to me in spirituality, my sacred space
I do not need to succeed failure to gain my attention nor to silence any dismay
And i do not feel urgency to stray away from my intrinsic gateways 

I am not frightened by your close attention to detail
Pertaining to matters of me and the ideas i adopt to be true instead
Nor do i bother about your views on my newfound philosophies 
Considering i feel seldom incomplete presently, so i can reason with you now

Alas, when i used to cry i could not turn to you
But my forgiveness touches places accessible to you these days
I can see beyond our diverged paths and welcome you all the same
For even if shame rouses, i shall not place the blame onto your heart spaces

You have taught what you’ve known and rightly so
I just pray and hope you can accept a version of me who’s changed
Since i feel earthbound without the cloudiness of what you’ve tried to arrange
So are you convinced that cherubs await those in disbelief of your deity in parade
Or did these unleashings persuade you further into your religious and lawful ways?

Bug Collector

Brush off your ant bites.
Blind eye the hornets sting.

Gone so long with ways of violence.
Creatures having done nothing wrong.

But it’s fine “they aren’t important”.
Legs or wings or hair you just can’t bare.

Squash and flush because no voice.
If it spoke would you still fear?

Darling child with bugs in jars,
May your care linger on and on my dear.
