Stomach harkens. Yellow Nokia. Snake ever gorging. Ever growing. Avoiding tail. Twisting in knots. Body hot. Heat wave. Fever. Face flushed. Eyes pulsing. Just behind the lids. Inside my head. Head harkens. Swirling whirlpool. Home on google maps Is incorrect. Zooming out. Zooming over. Finding outlets And a tea towel tucked in an unmarked cupboard. Quiet dawn sparkling Passing neighbors talking New views and a headboard That has never known my dreams. Leaf expansion Soul expansion 80c Dark roast calling like a long forgotten haunt Or the one park where the sunsets were the best There was a hawk that lived there Liked to wait until the heat died down And the crowds dispersed And the bats replaced the swallows Only then Would she come out For her joy ride Flying for the thrill And the view And the night ————— 2021 Haiku Dark Japanese Roasted Oolong from Rishe.eu ( by way of @steepedapp ) ———— #japanesetea #teafromjapan #oolong #oolongtea #roastedoolong #shizuoka #gongfucha #gongfu #gongfutea #gongfuteaware #teawares #teawareaddict #teaware #teaporn #teapoetry #teaspiration #creativitea #teastagram #tea #tearitual #teasession #teaforone #teaceremony #japaneseteaceremony #justinotherteablog #teablogger #teajourney #teajournal #teajunkie #morningteatime (at Spokane, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CgcQzRvOYve/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
I let my days go
So that I could stare into space, and by proxy
Free myself from time
What’s left on this play?
Or my creative heart?
It’s lost its rhythm
What a shame;
I trapped myself in between
To put it simply
In dreamy terms
I was a rock star
Only to wither
Without a single drug
In a corner of the basement
Amidst the dust and shadows
Half buried by time and clutter
Sits a bike
Tires flat
Tassels limp, unmoving
No one to ride it now
Its once bright colors
Dimmed with age
And neglect
Just a conveyor of memories
Useless except to bring back visions
Of years gone by
Occasionally it gets dusted
To reveal the image
Of a child
Riding, laughing
Sometimes crashing
But never stopping
But now it rests
Waiting for a ride
Bright and shiny
Tassels flying
Laughter trailing behind
Down Memory Lane one more time
I long have contended with hope. To hope is not something I am used to. I’ve always found it difficult to be hopeful. Oddly, in the most trying of times, I found hope and I am adamant to keep it.
For without it, I will continue drifting with no destination in sight. My soul would have no anchor for every turmoil and storms awaiting. My feet would not find solid ground in this fleeting life.
One should hope... always. And this is not me preaching toxic positivity. Because I understand each and everyone struggles, and it is hard to find light in grim darkness. But if one understands darkness is only the absence of light, then light have always existed.
So if you are in one of your darkest days today - know that you can always believe there is light - so do hope for today.
I’m sick to death of seeing it
Almost everyday a new clip
So much so it’s got me feeling sick
I just wanna see a video
Where the bystanders pull the cops off the dying guy
And subdue them in an attempt to save a life
Then keep the blue thugs down
Until cooler backup can arrive
But you’ll never see that
You wanna know why?
Because blue thugs are quick
To turn a rescue mission
To a gun fight
Claiming
“They thought about my gun
I had to end their lives”
It’s never been more apparent
That video is the best defense
When fighting Blue crime
Until judges see them lawfully liable
I’ll film your back
If you film mine

I used to like to sleep Now I can’t wait to rise Ache to feel the wind And the sunlight I used to feel alone But rarely anymore Can’t wait to see my friends And my loved ones I used to think the road was uphill Both ways Now I just coast and relax And take it easy Sixty milliliters Four grams four am Time for a breath and a sit And the pen Wandering around eyes Nine tenths closed Resting when I’m tired Singing when I want Eating when I’m hungry Laughing just for fun Being a beginner Doing things I’ve never done Covered in mud because I spin the wheel reckless Covered in sand If you dig I dig They say this spf is Sweat resistant But no one I know Is all that sure it is Rush the rapids from below Push against the endless river Until our arms are sore And we’ve no choice but to give up Falling backwards without seeing Trusting gravity and you Hold my breath and let it take me Deeper down it’s deeper blue I don’t have to understand it At least not with my head I just listen while the swallows Make their nests ————————— 2017 4am from @white2tea ———————— . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I awoke,
Opened my eyes
As the sun was lighting the dawn.
I arose,
The silence,
The dark was defeated and gone.
I looked around
Observed the world
Where there was hope and good before me
I walked out,
The numbness,
The pain were gone, the world before me.
I reached out
Grasping life, freedom
In a world opening before me.
I took hold
Of peace and love
Hate and fear disappearing around me.
I moved on
Feeling alive,
Alive as the birds, flowers, and as anyone could be.
I breathed in
The joy, the faith, the love
Dispelling the emptiness that was within me.
I laid down
Inviting vivid dreams,
The moon, the stars mesmerizing the night.
I slept easy
Through the dark
Knowing the son would be there with devoted light.
