Thoughts Of The Unborn
A moody rumination on what it feels like to just come into existence, in the unborn womb. Relates to experiences of betrayal & 'mental health services' also.So, finally, I am. I am! The universe is alive. It's my mum. The world is a throbbing hive, And I am the Queen bee. It is made to comfort me. A multiform,...

Untitled
Silk laden smoothness exudes the spirit,
Extending through the fingers and exposing my flesh,
Rough exterior but knowing mentality,
Skillfully putting me together.

Flame red evoking youth,
A real Pollyanna Wittier,
Embodying all that I...

the brinksmanship, daring and fanatical hatefully jilted mindset of this loose cannon barreling his bragadoccio at the tipping point of global conflagration.
The glory of America, now heats up with agitation poised to strike on the brink sans legislation incites humiliation, which goads desecration as fete accompli chink in armor of Democratic rubric, constituting capitalistic ethic,...

Going through various challenges, life has caused me to feel like a string puppet -you have to take control and snip those strings or you'll become a statistic!
Life has caused me at times to feel like a string-puppet
Holding out my hands to heart-ache…here take them and cuff it!
Where you go I go –where… I didn’t really mind
As long as a place...

that have deferred and delayed
the longing hidden deep within
inhibiting her...
