Yesterday I posted a poem, but as an over thinker I already want to make one thing clear. Here’s the poem. “The air is thin here among the musk and dirt my body veiled in cloth. I’d prefer not to be. There’s a nakedness I crave that isn’t available to all. This nakedness, this madnessContinue reading “Correction On Shrouded”

Shrouded
Shrouded The air is thin here among the musk and dirt my body veiled in cloth. I’d prefer not to be. There’s a nakedness I crave that isn’t available to all. This nakedness, this madness is divinity hoarded with chocolates and tea. There’s incessant knocking knocking pounding and glass shattering I open my hands andContinue reading “Shrouded”
To be
While I pick at this mold I’m asked What do you want to be A fluffy cloud? Nah, it’s too late A pipe? Nah, my arms are growing tired. Well what do you want to be? I wish to remain shapeless without form not caste in a womb and fired in a kiln I wishContinue reading “To be”

Sleep, my friend
Sleep, my friend I can’t keep my eyes open The lids they’re being pulled down by a crane And the weightlessness of sleep washes over me like waves Some bigger than others I want to skip all this creating and let my consciousness free in dreams But I’m almost finished just a few more sentencesContinue reading “Sleep, my friend”
Missing You
Missing You It’s a been a year, since you went away I wish I could have said what I wanted to say I’m still here, looking for answers to explain Why you decided, your life couldn’t be the same. Missing your voice and the look of your face, Knowing that no one, can take yourContinue reading “Missing You”
Purple Hat
Purple Hat Welcomed by the man with the tall purple hat I could do nothing but freeze and fall back The wizzies wanged and the scared babies screamed This place is a real life dark day dream. Full of thinking thinkers and mind tinkers I think I’ve done it, some one thing rightly, WritingContinue reading “Purple Hat”
