Red Dots

Unlike the blue bubbles from my pores

Recline like a flower in a cave

The paternal, my bloom, my pollen

Lives in the effect of skills valued, like so many

Without a guide.

The reward of a chair

Or voluptuous trends among the cities

Crown me $

I am the greatest

Champion of my death

So lets not use the word waste

Scrape by Monday and Wednesday

On the blue moon

Fertility cusps like a grip

Passing through like fear stimulated in stories.

The fine dash through the office

The noise of recognition in anime

With a 6000 pound ancestor

Fickle, in some part of you...

Yet consistent and brave

Belly up now!

The morning after

Experience may weaken us

By our distinct feature

Because on a hot summer day

We forgot the feeling of warmth on

Our nude wise bodies

On a yellow and black plate at the mercy of the forests edge

They document their position of their object

While point B sits aimless for our species embrace

4.

Without jaws

Without brain fat

Without our field

The: is the end

Symbolic dreams without a spirit

We hold hands

Make our way down the cinematic path

(Knowing these pals are not forever)

A camellia in bloom

With the gift of taste

A beauty sailing to another shore

To greet the working port

I grasp the wooden pillar at the same moment

That Mars went on its course

To New York?

At Packards. Like the first time

Northampton

Walking forward

As if one step back

Ahead like I ordered it

The smell of nature

Ability to know worth

Nutrients

Memorizing feelings

Sustain ink

Step Step

Step Step

Let (I) go to what you know

Cause the car is fixed

And the sound

Will fix, its gonna

Because there is

Money

Like it belongs

Green/like what?

Lets take it all

All like all of us

Sustained and naive

Like birds at polluted puddles

Like suspicion before search

Count the caves

They are the same

Decorated walls

New dishes

Ages at the mercy of space

Espacios que salvan

Para dormir

Y para comer

Hamburguesas con queso azul

A joke amongst pressure

The dance that made the chill drop

An abstraction of the miserables

To expedite a source of wonder

I rely on your cold shoulder

Describing a set of rules on a field

.........Not like enemies but a boring game...........

But nothing beats that beautiful smile of a second

That grin that brought your foundation out

I did it for you

It was my sacrifice

It creeped in so slowly, immediately

It took 10 years of studies

To zoom in that close,

At least,

Whatever,

It made sense,

My Character is hard to describe, maybe

But I’m not sure what your suggesting?

From playing as a kid I learned not to flinch

Or not always speak the truth

To protect myself as a child from adults,

As an adult I don’t care what objects you wave at me

Don’t wave anything at me!

Speak to me like God spoke to Jesus

We are both here together

Believe me, I believe you

The day becomes free

Silence passes with the property of matter

Letting

nature take

care

Catching the eye of a song bird

Switching from plastic to glass

Reggae music for life.

Swallowing spicy tea like gravel at the bottom of a river

Flowing in the all mighty fishes mouth

Swimming metamorphic organics

The splash on the third verse

An accidental hook

In the solitude of creation

©

9.

The visual difference was enough

I knew the complex facts about

Freezing time when fire flies light up like the stars

We got prepared for the darkness

We sprayed it off

It was all just a combination

One that led to the dread in peripheral

Picking on me like a bully

And not carrying, I saw what I needed

Now I’m on the road fueling the engine with my heart beat,

+ History of Heart Disease in Family +

-

The sword, so beautiful, with diamonds from Jupiter

The two elephants

The two deer

And my thumbs in a dream

I am the mc, on a broke drum set

I was in Africa

All my cells where in Africa

As the world turned, feet stepped

Now I’m here

Swimming with others

I crossed the street to go up the hill

Where patience took the form of childhood friends

Like airplanes landing

Or the lie at the post office

Ive invested heavily

On the profound bones

This acid in my stomach

And my brown waking eyes

Its the gift under my fingertips

That decides weather to land on the board

Or the pavement

Schooled and ready for purple, red and yellow,

Composed and handsome

©

11.

The expiration date got me confused with my schedule

Like raw sight and leafy chimes ***

My fear of mountain lions spoke truth

Behind future eye lenses

Scratched

Looking good.

My soul gets enough for you and I

We have been given our given lives

Focus on the volumes of the presence of

Where you lay your behind

To remind others of your way

©

12.

The vaginas that love it

Around like the love for wandering

Constant as the erect penis

Like consistent chatter

I was dancing by myself to a fast snare

Going crazy like a charlie horse at midnight

Knowing that skin to skin

Will make me want to nibble on your nipple

Or grab you by the waist

There is no telling what magic sparkles up

A crispy zipper on a hot summer

Confusing weather drizzling off my sweater.

My butt is beautiful/you have no shame

The voice crack in her orgasm

Or the breeze between the sheets

I long to meet your belly, tightening

Lost in the abandoned room for rent

Where we designed a new landscape

©

13.

Can you pay for a poem?

No sorry sir

I’m on a simultaneous mission

To write

Where the harpoon

Meets the IPA

The names that are on the way

An after party of mixed trade

Guessing moods

Delivering loans for care, dreading the “demotion”

Yeah, I heard this at work

That chant

©

14.

Did you eat lunch?

Yes I did, thanks!

I got drunk by my computer

I swam by clay

I folded my flannel on the grass

And I wrote about politics

Pebbles hurt city souls

Walking down the stream like a profit

Like a corporations spiritu santo

Or something of that feeling

I dove in and was send back

The time it was safe to drown

Slowly dying like a super hero

To being saved by my hair

Gripping my scalp.

Hair dyed green

Behind a leaf

Life ruminating out my nostrils

And I’m a little flower too soft to handle

©

15.

Neon purple dragon flies

Rare against the sound of the dam

Like last years private alignment

I thank my fathers sperm

And my mothers eggs

I hatched in the wilderness

Lasting forever until the end, (you can cry now)

My my intestines are loose

To inject many things handled.

Nice to hear that voice

An uplifting one through service

Not an analog, but one bound by species

A species that can destroy like hurricanes

And add nutrition to the soil

And serve the most delicious tomatle

16.

Tomorrow I’m suppose to wear a bow and tie,

Black on a white shirt,

Its a lot like comedy

Or to much cheese at the birthday party/The same five salsa songs on

repeat

Personality resurrection

In mitosis passing off change

It took an entire nail to heal

For that word (_____)

Circles make so much sense now

At last, they work

At last, salt makes meat at the restaurant

At least the brewing company makes its own customers

At least I could answer my own questions

Like in German.

Forget about it, {diving down the drain

Of a blue abyss

Colorblind to orange environments

I come back to foundation

On a farm, beautiful pastures of winded light}

Age twins celebrate on the same date =

When they combust in drama

The voices melt

Without wind twinkles

Without silence

Where time is set in revolution game shows

The blade flew on the tv

Like the poppy annoying extended notes

The measurement in volume

Began to flick

And the time was one minute off

Because when I finish early

I fear the bully

That family thats not mine

Laughing about the coins to my livelihood

That I don’t have

The decisions that where distorted

By fangs in nature

And by passive aggressive vulnerability : (

Today I dispel to all the nations

Of all the nations

Off their desires!

For what?

The answers lie right in front of you

The designs on pants

And favorite colors on a revolving scale

What is happening to you?

Maybe nothing?!0!?, my dear

Its a forever string through the tummy

Something the souls of your feet know

Or the veins on your eyes

You have seen the count

Even when you smile

My self is no subject for your false interpretation

Of your ignorant obsession for scripture with a bad preacher

I roam the wilderness

Dodging arrows and waiting for the fall

Making the winter take note

Theres something pure in how water is so lubricating

And greens are so refreshing

Its bad to complain about the rip on your food

Or not having the means to nourish your neighbor

Or bodies of your arrangement

Conceived

Through romantic or outside the field of love

If you are here

You are here to be yourself

And I love you, to be loving

The pain is not your fault

And its never anyone else’s turn

I found a special tool,

tsol

But I didn’t find a place to swim

I went around in circles feeling deja vu

Measuring the safety of the test

This has happened before

I was so scared then

Feeling nervous while being self conscious wearing hair gel

My heart was in a blender

Now looking back, it was very cute

And I’ve gained confidence

So I go on

Feeding back when I meet eyes with conductors

Trying to persuade me of themselves in 5 seconds

And my bottle is a bell
