Don't
If you'll resent
The bother.

Refuting that we're
Made for change,
We seek patterns in
The ever-changing normal.

Cotton dots on shrouds of white,
Sailing oceans blue on black —
The ever, at the edge of sight
Where fear can't root
And dreams find meaning.

Never is
A place of fear.

Close my eyes
And pray that
I'll be gone
Before the pain.

A turn off winds
Is all it takes,
Fates once superb disintegrate
To wailing songs of bitterness —
Death throes of the
Disillusioned privileged.

I don't do hints,
Fuck subtlety —
Displeasure
Must be worded,
In order to be
Recognized and understood.

Treasure each
Shard of heart,
Even those long since
Omitted from reality —
They are as vital
As what remains.

Press and hold
To talk.

Underneath
Forgiveness' guise
Blame shifts.

Were there a creator,
I'd question his intentions
For us nuclear apes,
Granted the power of invention.

Caught in an echo —
Compelled to recreate
Our glory days.

There are no bridges
Between love
And cruelty.

Envy brings even
The mighty
Down.

Oftentimes
Answer is a verb.

Colored scenes,
Dirtied lenses —
Evil is
A flawed perspective.

Blind spots —
Reason lives
Pre-caution
And post-fix.

Manage your beliefs —
Identify the bullshit,
And cut the feed.

Love raises,
Drama shapes —
Without either
Life is incomplete.

Love
Should not
Be sacrifice.
