Nothing to say.... - This earth jokes at redemption Shifting life’s results Mirages on the snow caps Then to eyes soon melts A place of dementia Dragging blood from hearts Being mined by the cartloads Emptied it departs It leaves me feeling vacant Cue the hollow shell Movie set of illusion My almost-life hell Existing in the sidereal Distant unseen light A fading off diminished Hardly within sight This is what defines my state Puppet, strings and god This is how I acquiesce Bow my head and nod - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Rack'em Spirits & Times) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ-Z6KEFAvm/?igshid=1jv3crgr8pbxh

Not wanting to disappoint, although even that is an assumption.; I present the following... - I’ve slipped to the realms of monotone To the lands of “I don’t care” Hear the tick of the metronome It’s deafening in its blare Blocking out sensory existence The noise transforms to silence It lies in tatters all around me Victimized by its violence Twisting my world view perception Rippled in a mental haze I lie numbing inside my own skin Still my mindset runs ablaze Stringent degrees of separation Amplified in such a state Did nothing to preserve my sanity Did nothing but serrate So I bleed back to reality To the place I don’t relate It’s a stretch to say I am happy Cause happy is never straight Crookedly it makes it’s appearance Laughing as it draws me in I try to resist its temptation But I’m a sucker for sin The breech it leaves me feeling empty A disconnection from me Nothing that I ever wanted to be Still deception’s what I see Fooled by my own lack of direction I foresee my own demise While I’m astounded by my own gall It’s gall to feel to surprise - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Rack'em Spirits & Times) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIC3P3il74E/?igshid=14joawng490tb

I guess I’m still rolling and flowing... - In what super real can I say it? A way that will make it through I’m stuck here begging, breaking & trying Working so hard to find you God damn it I know I move in passive Aggressive is not my way Still this fire is an inferno Though it’s black on dark cast day It doesn’t deny willingness Nor the need to be fulfilled I till the hardened ground before me Praying I’ll reap and be filled But it’s hard in blighted lands In the lands I don’t belong My failure tramples in infamy The very wind sings this song “You’re not meant for the things you want” “That’s reserved for your betters” “Any love for you will not be caught” “You’re meant for threadbare letters” The letters ascribed to rejection They ask why I even try With finite levels of happiness This life thinks I should die Ahh, but I am a stubborn bastard Fight tooth and nail for my lot Yes it’s less than ideal living But damn it, it’s all I’ve got - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Rack'em Spirits & Times) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIASXmFFRG5/?igshid=1o3yyt675im3c

Just a little rambling with @lyrically.blue - There she stays in broken state Mind on verge of crack As the thoughts come tumbling down On her head they stack There she sits this lonely night As torment rolls on in Reminding her that even hope Can’t cleanse her tired skin Triple loads of love gone by Betrayed right from the start How she tried to hold them all Just to save her heart She recalls her many tears Of painful memories made Words of which she can’t take back As love begins to fade Yet most of all her saddened days Carry the weight of tonnes And so she weeps for chosen few Of those who were her ones Her feet drag on the ground behind As heaviness consumes The rain consistent, pouring down Above her head, it looms It wets her face then the floor Tear for every thought Rolling off in crashing waves All the dreams for naught Slip and stumble, stumble slip She tries to free her grasp Caught up in every pining thought That wasn’t made to last There’s nothing more she could want Nothing more to give She hides and nurses fractured love And hopes to make it live There she stays in broken state Praying for love once more Crumpled to the ground in bits Like every time before - #bleedingsoulbuds #bleedingsoulpoetry #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #your_poetic_voice #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry https://www.instagram.com/p/B9jT3w4FxZ1/?igshid=1et36sd2fiuk2

A barely perceived ramble... - I glide on and into a scene A shade to vapor worn The form readjusts it’s state As fog to early morn The press of humanity Burns like the rising sun Shifting unto translucent Inwardly I’m spun Minuscule cloud of droplets It is how I engage Barely passing human form Upon this living stage I slide like a puff of breath Part like the passing wind Inhale, exhale, forgotten In sense, I’m unpinned Floating in peripheral A speck upon the eye Nothing more than a notion That you would never scry A blink and suddenly gone Mirage to blurry sight I leave just as I entered A shadow in the night - #bleedingsoulbuds #bleedingsoulpoetry #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #your_poetic_voice #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry (at Cape Coral, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9dxhH1lfpi/?igshid=1iujnvdnpwfyx

A rambling... - Crawl through the devastation Panic in the passing Never mind the sun rose red Dying’s made for thrashing Shore up all those bleeding holes Life is bound to persist Ever it pulls you forward Its call you can’t resist So cinch it up buttercup Shake off depression’s grasp Life is an active war zone It’s deadly as an asp There is no time for weakness Unless you wish to die And that’s against what’s coded You’re created to fly I’d put it to you better But I fight my own war I too am crawling trenches As I am aiming to soar - #poems #spilledink #instapoet #penguinpoetrynyc #poets #creativewriting #instapoem #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #igpoets #doortooursouls #equindragon #horsewyrm #thepoetryposse #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #your_poetic_voice #artlixirpoetry #veinheartartisans #globalvoicesunite #wepoetswrite #madpropslive (at Rack'em Spirits & Times) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bywg2KUljqg/?igshid=vzltl0at14nb

In response to @madpropslive question and answer writing prompt. My question was: What is your perfect day. I offer the following... - There I think of perfect day I slide to reverie All the things I’d like to play As new born memory I think of love a life long tryst With a girl of loving mind One who’s sad when I’m missed For I am one who’s kind Then it’s on to little things My dear I’ll get the door Anxious for what this day brings She says she loves me more Now we’re driving to the store Hand on wheel and hand in hand Music’s playing with a roar Life feels mighty grand Now pushing cart hands still linked Shopping a simple treat Discussing our life’s events As always our eyes meet I spy on the reflection From my eyes inside her’s I witness a world of love As such action in incurs Now we’re back to our household The daily chores unfold At the end of the day It’s her essence I hold Drifting off to my dreamland I’m anxious to awake To relish in her presence For that I truly ache But that’s just a perfect day For me those don’t exist But since Madprops asked me I just couldn’t resist - #poems #spilledink #instapoet #penguinpoetrynyc #poets #creativewriting #instapoem #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #igpoets #doortooursouls #equindragon #horsewyrm #thepoetryposse #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #your_poetic_voice #artlixirpoetry #veinheartartisans #globalvoicesunite #wepoetswrite #madpropslive (at Rack'em Spirits & Times) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bw7tN4CBan4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1l8k3o2p9u8yb

Cause the words/poetry compels.... - Ever twilight haunts my mind Fades of dying spark Played across my reveries Rockets in the dark Aspirations soaring high Roaring til their stops Racing for infinity While the apex drops Bursts depart the embers fly Flares a blazing bright Falling down and fading out Light gives in to night Staring in the afterglow Sorrow preludes strife Ever twilight haunts my mind Darkening my life - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Cape Coral, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CSYU2ZfM-rS/?utm_medium=tumblr

Since I’m feeling lazy, here’s a Twitter piece I wrote... - Silence stalks the shadowed hall Still dust betrays its tread There in rush remembered touch Whirls memory instead The need to feel brings it back Returned from places dead Hope endorsed from broken love Breaks silence in my head - #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #veinheartartisans #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Cape Coral, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKm7CYSlOvT/?igshid=n5cpg9xmnv5

Cause for some stupid reason I’d feel bad if I didn’t... - I know I’ve got a sense to depress A way that darkens the gray Turning to black the world I entail As I lay waste to a day The clouds transform into weighted mounds Staking my soul down in place While security lacks purity It’s unto the storm I brace Smashing flashes of the lightning crashes All alight to blind my sight Thunder rolls to such deafening tolls Reckless spite now rules the night Left to ways breathless and deathless My vine shrinks from the divine Wither arrives from places hither To twine tight against my spine The trauma to my diorama Derision ruling my state Entrapped airless among the careless Victimized by random fate Just know I did not chose this flow All the churning drew me down Down from above I gave up on love So I relinquish my crown The lion lays dead before the lamb Vicious kindness could not win The dragon writhes restless to the sword A fairy born dies in sin While the equin just simply wanders Grazing in an endless field Death arriving in multiple ways All my aspects simply yield Caught up in poetic prose I froze From top to bottom I stop Synthetic days have destroyed my ways Giving hope reason to stop Please forgive my nonexistence Past and path have prevailed These times have trodden out all the truths At crossroads I see I’ve failed - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Rack'em Spirits & Times) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKifyi3FSze/?igshid=1vmbpcjayqo41

Cause I’m reckless.. . - I espy a minor death Reaping but not grim I’m not sure what I’m seeing Though it seems a him A distortion at edges Wavered sense of me Staring at a reflection I want to up and flee Still I’m drawn to darker side Turning sight within A speck of black mars my soul Touches on my skin Many a life I have touched Many I’ve made end Now I only transport souls Forward as I wend To some it’s desecration Handling the dead Others proclaim salvation Softly call me friend A mark of inevitable The answer I give This speck of divinity Dots the life I live Yes they’re only animals By god aren’t we all On pale iron horse I ride When death makes it call - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Rack'em Spirits & Times) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKYN3TEljUu/?igshid=le5ccd6waiah

Too tired for a fancy post. So take it as it is... - It was by chance I remembered To breathe the air I breathe For this world has left me severed In a world where feelings seethe The alarm clock dissertations Jangle their ringing tunes While the jumble of awakening Wakes me with its croons Coerced into living again The stab a blinding flash My muscles protest the notion As my thoughts start to gnash Dragged away from the nightly death I pant within its wake Beseeching all the unseen gods This must be a mistake Fuck, I can’t do this anymore Living lone in my head No one to share suppositions Yes, I’m better off dead This thought is runs itself ramrod Gunpowder down my throat The musket balls of desolation Carved with the words I’ve wrote Their packed in places too tightly A backfire on the rise So I quickly pull the trigger To provoke a surprise Yet it fires off to the distance Projecting to its last Denying me my salvation There in its righteous blast The sound recedes to a silence Leaving me in its stead Forsaken echoes quietly Un-hit and still I bled I fall in a wakeful slumber Destroyed by how I live Falling to forgotten places To places that don’t give So it’s funny I’m still breathing Sharing everyone’s air While I’m stuck here in my grieving As no one seems to care It’s in these moments I exhale And curse my twisted fate This living in my loneliness A state I’ve come to hate - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Cape Coral, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKQ2cOHFgnX/?igshid=1o3qt62vkx5dg

A Saturday ramble for ya... Do you ever cry at random At visual duress A feeling grabbing at tears From sight to eyes intense Enraptured by a moment Of human pain portrayed Fake or real that feeling’s steel So in your mind revealed Masculinity screams “Weak!” My strengths an ebbing deal While empathy says it’s right All caring minds should kneel A point of inner conflict It’s a black and white clash Muscles war against my brain So back and forth the lash Destitution for the thought Solitude is my meal Over caring to a fault My face displays this weal Caring while I am uncared Cause the masses don’t feel I’m lonely in my struggle Thus battered by their zeal - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Rack'em Spirits & Times) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKIpclzFYxs/?igshid=wjtxelzq4r3p

So it’s been 6 days...so here’s something... - Strung out from a lack of love In metaphors I shake Silt’s got everything on me On solitude I slake It is the only liquid The coup de grace for me A sword of suffocation It’s drowning all I see It’s a world of desolation So lifeless by design Endless spans of nothingness In sinking I resign Down to the darkening depths I watch the fading light The black waits to consume me A masticating night For long I’ve dodged its gnashing A flailing fish on hook Fighting with voracity Until my muscles shook But that was just yesterday And that isn’t today See, before I was fighting Now my will’s gone astray Brow beaten by the struggle A salmon to the dam I’ve battered myself senseless Made lifeless from the slam Strength has ebbed to sordid ends Depleted I just sigh Backwards in the upstream I’m floating backwards by - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Cape Coral, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJ0N68_lt1r/?igshid=185se288gi3a1

Thought I was done...oh well...though truthfully I need to stop. The senseless outpouring of emotion needs to stop. It achieves nothing...smh... - Make me take the step I’ll match the beat The thump just thumping thumping Eyes to heart we’ll meet Needles waiting for the thread In camels believe If that moment came along I would never leave But that’s wishing pragmatic This dream won’t conceive Yeah my heart will whine and bitch Dirty on my sleeve I know my place and station Less than the less Sweeping shards of shattered heart I’ll clean up my mess Dustpan and piles conjoin I forget my worth Just a carbon based life form Formed upon this earth - #instapoet #yellowpenguinpoetrynyc #poets #dortooursouls #writerscommunity #theoracleschoice #equindragon #horsewyrm #capecoral #fortmyers #lehighacres #globalwordsmiths #veinheartartisans #inkinnovators #madpropslive #poetrypunch #savantpoetry #evepoetrygroup (at Cape Coral, Florida) https://www.instagram.com/p/CJko7I3lQtH/?igshid=23i02hs5h8p3
