Endorsing Enforced Poses

To umask insecurity...
A weakness is sought
To be brought to the surface,
And revealed.
Something expressed,
To free the confession.
Something that gives,
A confidence to expose.
With a healing that begins...
A realness felt one feels.
Hopefully appealing to those
Who have chosen to remove
Hangups
And unlock doors they chose,
To keep closed
From endorsing enforced poses.

Baby Boo

It Goes This Way & That
Baby Boo Smiles
Went Down Some Many Roads
Not To Collect Miles
You Wonder What Happen That Day
Our Heart Split
It Wasn't Surpost To happen
Now People Who Judge
Are Siting Back Laughing
You Did Basketball
Had A Name
Just Wasn't Enough
To Carry Your Name To 2010
Let's Stop Pretending
I See Your Eyes
Fixed On Me
To Tell You The Truth
We Didn't Want To
Hurt Like This
Baby Boo Let's Find Are Peace

Respect the Arts

Revere the arts standing on pillar and wing.
Moves of Longfellow, da vinci, Mozart fashioning
in a misty past, a marvelous cast, who dug the
trenches and flowered the path.Their bodies of
work streamed the portal for future artists
and their creations.A foundation still solid
though time tortured may the realness live on
through student and teacher.Look.listen and
feel through it's beauty and rebound the
simplistic, fine things in life.

Stuffed Shirts Smother

Values fixed,
In rusted steel
Once gleaming tall and storied.
Has those towers leaning,
With those inside eating pizza.

The realness of this vision screams,
As those unconscious
Return acts obscene.
By using influence,
To hush the crushing...
And seal pipe dreams.

Although very few,
In those high rises survive.
Stuffed shirts smother...
When they begin to believe,
The nonsense produced
And filed under 'Lies,
Excuses and Alibis Yet to Try'.

The Birds

The birds are singing out aloud,
This dream starts now, so be!
Let answers cry so high in cloud,
A flight ability.

In this design is the one star,
A son and a daughter;
One moon cannot be a pulsar,
So how is it darker?

We fit in wings as well as legs,
The realness over us;
We walk and fly and so it begs
To find a home faultless.

You watch and you have learnt the most,
So then the knowing makes
Us proud of all the same coast,
To offer these, these cakes.

Okey-Doke

An overloading of circumstance,
With a focus dumped on pomp.
And just too much of the poppycock,
That crops up with romancing done...
Prioritized by the junk
Leaves the people celebrating,
Their nonsense without end.
And the people celebrate,
More of it to begin!
To defend.
And often...
People have to pretend with them,
Everything is okey-doke.
Since people love it when,
They can poke at other folks to joke.
'Cause...
People need to feel,
A realness...
Although little of it makes sense at all.

Life and The Giver

the giver has given to us the life
the art of life
is the science
within the mind
to live
acting as rationally thought
with realness,
pureness,
humility,
tolerance,
dignity,
self-thought/awareness,
self concept
and being in life

(to which at some variance and instance, all shall and must cease to effect at once) : not to just exist, for we all live to die!

'one one cocoa fill basket' - one thing at a time.
'one hand wash the other' - each of us needs the other to live as peeple in oneness.

My Crying Jail

Sometimes I'm over and often inside
My crying jail
Like two spiritual hands
Encompassing a corporate body,
Both belonging
To that irreversible sadness.
An inflexible realness
Forces my eyes
To speak
Against that malignant silence,
Situated upon your lower lip.
Moreover, it forces my bloodcurdling
Inner scream to be
An outer space song,
When it's pushed through fractured teeth
Into a totally weird reality
Like a shadow of
An incomprehensible dream
With inlaid hopes.
This reality is slipping out,

Folding the Sun

Folding the paper suppresses the job of life,
Inside the islands of our sleep awaits the return;
To this return we look and respond, forming years
And more ages and eras for the common good.

A secret has been unleashed forcing us about
With frocks of fidelity, clothes of the surface of the body.
The reality of secrecy relied on more realness
As it circled and went somewhat straight.

Let this lesson mirror certain beliefs,
Creating a piano to be played in front of dozens.
Doze and burn the skin under the stars at night
Even when the sun is present, even at night.

Optimism In Jail

my dear comrades
send me only the books which write sadness
and then end at the end happily
let the aeroplane land on the airport safely
let the doctor emerge smiling from the surgery
let the blind eyes of a blind child open and see immediately
let save the teenager from being shot
let the longing lovers meet
let us arrange a wedding and a feast
let the thirst reach the water
and the bread reach freedom and liberty
my dear comrades
send me only the books writing sadness
but at the end end with happiness
things they write and say
ı hope
will come at the last moment..at the last instant
to realness
