f-i-g-t
writing about yesterday makes me think- tomorrow,
its a tough decision and it effects years to come
day after day its put off and everyday something new comes up-
standing still in one place is not so hard when your in motion.

triangles
he told me not to talk to you
he told me,
there was something inside of you-
and the same thing has happened to me,
tell me what it is that runs around in a sealed box
how can something escape from within a safe-

the big king cake
talk is what he did, he talked to the first young adult and he said talk to it-
it’s open minded and approachable,
the second young man said it was not the type to be receptive-
once he spoke to a girl and she said it was an uncaring creature.
So he was urged to speak to the one, and although he was once the one and so was the other, today she was the one-
In the end their paths crossed...

lost letters
this letter is from yesterday- and the day falls short of its time,
when had this all begun, yesterday-
and it was
in the stream of consciousness that freewill is not present
oh’ the beauty of the form
you don’t understand my words-
a love letter from yesterday, tells you nothing about the day
or much about what it meant
perfection leads to determined outcomes
the only way to execute...

dear Alaska,
it’s taken too long to leave the subtropics
my skin yearns to feel the cool chill of the evening night
my blood’s warm with your withdrawal
all the circumstances tell me you’ve forgotten who we used to be
wars,
we fought them-
all internal conflicts and
struggles for power, make me wish you were here-
year after year- it’s becoming more futile to struggle
one...

poetic fear
for justice, for the flag that unites all of mankind with retribution,
for liberty the facade of a utopian idealist,
for reasoning- dictates absurdity
its been a long time since the first time
a long time since the second-
it’s still not the end, but it makes more sense now

-all for one Immigrant portrait
they looked at me different since the day we landed here. When we left Tierra- we thought, that the robots would be the worst of our problems but the end of human history was writing itself action by action. How long did we wait before going off world. What was human history? -we’ve been across the universe and back just to see time fold on itself. Alien was what they called us, U S - we...

pathways
Holding the key to solve your problems can be a self defeating practice wandering lost at the beginning- your on a path that, its unseen destination, seems out of reach- two steps ahead of you lies the final quest the beckoning of the journey’s path is whispering in your subconscious.

reluctant moves
we didn’t stop we just didn’t resist
your yelling and we haven’t even started fighting
it’s built up all the things that have happened,
sorry,
it hurt your feelings and it’s not fair
for either of us evil is devious-
this is just another letter, just another attempt.
Waiting in hell for heaven is just a newcomers hope.
faith doesn’t guide me…
it blinds my...

Death
asked me the most important thing someone should know
this ultimate question about me-
some might rush to quickly point in a direction into nowhere where others might statically place themselves in a location.
Reference points are skewed, it’s observable, the universe is moving and the feeling does not escape, things are in perpetual movement.
To the person there is only one answer it...
