Hellish sleepI think it's getting worse
The visions happen less
Now I don't dream but still
I feel it nonetheless
I feel impending doom
A danger I can't explain
A parabola of needles
A sense of helpless pain
I sit there non-existent
Or at least not of this plain
I try to cry but don't know how
To feel present, much less sane
I sit in utter silence
Longing...

Enjoying life through smoking
Tobacco and weed.
Perhaps natives were always
Onto that very something....

Where Is Human Dignity?Where is human dignity?
Where is the border? Lamb white cloaks??!
Humans. Women and men. Personal respect
Humans with souls and personal living space
This is a natural sphere. This not psychology
The personal living place and sphere of Life
Comes from the Creation. Parts of humans
Lamb white cloaks
Lamb white cloaks
False science owners
Guilties, sinners!
Lambs with wolf souls!
Why? Why? Answer!
Why do...

Scarlet ParadiseIn the storm of my mind,
You were my quiet yearning.
Nothing to hold onto, nothing to chase,
Nobody can adjust to this phase.
Do not claim the jargon words,
Words mean nothing when they are hollow.
Letters and pauses are only the reflections of my urge
To put you in my precious seat.
I see a scarlet paradise,
Beneath the fabrics, beneath the...

Trampled WillsTrampled Wills
Do you want something? Own ideas?
That’s a problem! You cannot live alone!
Are you an individual? That’s a crime!
You cannot have your own will and
consciousness, ideas, dreams, goals
You can’t be yourself, you have a ruler
You are a slave to a science. Human-made
This is the dark age. Foggy. Psychologically
The sun died. God became an exile
We...

MysteryMany years ago, I had gone to Pakistan for a poets’ conference.
They call it a “Shaayari Majlis” there.
The behavior of the Pakistanis, their warmth, the depth of their poetry—
again and again, it left me in awe!
Their wounded hearts expressed in lofty words
left me speechless— ...

Writing ReadingI guess I write
because I think
I have something
to post, that others
would want to read...
I guess I read
because I have learned
others pen subjects
of great interest...
I have found writing
is something I can do
most places and times --
pads and pencils
easy enough to carry...
we also write and read
to escape -- keeping a safe
wall of pages between...

The Quiet EchoI have met you in my mind,
You have been a reflection of my desire.
I have worshipped you in my favourite mirror,
You have been a quiet echo in others’ eyes.
I never judged you inside the canvas,
Never found you in my head,
Never placed you on the stage,
Never let you out of my heart.
So many people to see,
So...

My violence was not silenceThe rats ate the walls, ate the clothes
You could hear them baring teeth and boring holes
And there was a sign outside the window
But not a sign from God, it read
“Win tickets for your family”
When had I last seen?
I woke up one morning with rats outside my cell
The guard out there yelled out for me to...

Delusion is my WorldWhy does delusion seem to be the only reality I know?
Almost never catching myself when my mind starts to go
Is delusion my real reality though?
Snapping in & out of this dimension
Which I should mention,
Is beyond my comprehension of an
Intervention for redemption or reinvention
What's your intention?
My soul can't take anymore pain...
I don't get what you...

Dead Dollies
He slips the noose around her slender neck
Cloaked and masked with heavy breath
He can't help but be obsessed
All the dolls hangin' around - pretty little lies that make not a sound
The poison of passion imagined as they are undressed.
The dead in their eyes is magnificent
Ivory skin - chill to win
Realm of the dark, lips apart,...

Have you ever thought about the raising of CainHave you ever thought about the raising of Cain?
Where did that boy get a rage so completely insane
that he ended up murdering his younger brother?
Did he learn this rage from his father and mother,
who must've been in deep, psychological pain
for having caused Eden to go down the drain.

Runner"The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return" ~ from the song Nature Boy, written by George McGrew, aka eden ahbez, and recorded by Nat King Cole and others

Interview with a FetusWomb
of woes,
why, plague me?
Shut up! It's you
in this combat zone
alone, and questioning.
It's not even a baby.
How do I bear this transgression?
Ask Alexa. Not real yet, Ma.
But, I'd figure, two weeks before you show....
