The stream (all workshops)
Poetry provides a platform for creativity to flourish,
Phrases flowing freely with each carefully chosen word,
Powerful imagery painted with poetic brush strokes,
Passion ignites the written verse, a symphony of sounds.
Pondering the possibilities within the poet's mind,
Provoking thoughts and emotions within the reader,
Pulsating rhythms guide the journey through stanzas,
Phenomenal beauty captured in lines of pure poetry.
Paupers of the written word
misunderstood, neglected,
the poet beats a lonely path
to tell his tales, dejected.
Ripped deep from out his tortured soul
bare thoughts wing home to roost.
On pages strewn with errors,
that hang him as a noose.
Do written words bring peace of mind?
Raise spectres of his fears?
Do they bring peace and set him free?
Ne'er in a million years.
(a poor excuse for legs),
and get me the latest
sophisticated prosthetics advancements,
whereat integration of cultured stem cells
into custom made appendages
allows, enables, and provides
unfortunate recipients of amputations
to experience sensations.
Waiting in line
I see hands that carry lives
and big bags
with little necessities
and a river filled with milk and life
running and buzzing
just like the way we move -
cozy and familiar
I'm waiting in line
and I don't know
what was the breaking news
any of the days
I just have a feeling something
will eventually get us going
5 PM, November 17, 2078.
A celestial beautiful phenomenon
Many crystals appear in the sky
People call it Crystal Sky
The last time crystal sky was seen
And the last time we met
Unfortunetly i lost your number
Do you still remember me?
Do you still have my number?
If you do, why didn't you contact me?
I'm curious what you're doing now
Are you playing with your cat Tera now?
"Where do dreams hide?"Once asked my child
"Behind the stars, I've always replied."
"Where stars reside, our dreams reside."
" Once asked my child, where do dreams hide."
Where dreams reside, there shines a light,
With few brave steps , the way we'll find
Let's find the way where stars shine bright
There shines a light where dreams reside.
I want you to love me painfully.
I want your throat raw after screaming you love me.
I want your heart bloody with all the love it pumps out.
I want your bones aching when I’m not there for you to hold.
I want you to love me painfully
Because that is how I will love you.
I will bandage you up
And kiss your scars
And love you gently.
Green is the colour
Of the deep dark sea
Blue is the feeling
Deep within me
Red is the colour
Of the red sky at night
Yellow is the colour
Of the sun so bright
Black is the colour
Of a cave, deep and dark
Brown is the colour
Of an old trees bark
Grey is the colour
Of the socks I have on
One day these colours
In my heart will belong
Ha! Ha! Ha!
They're laughing at me
So I'll keep on thinking
Of trying to be free
When you smile,
Mighty darkness
Has an urge to confess.
Your smile turns fears,
Into exiled prisoners
That are banished for years.
The sound of your laughter
Beckons sadness to dream
Of a tomorrow free of disaster.
Are you real? I daringly ask,
In a world where joy
Is sold as a jester’s mask.
In a world filled with gloom,
There is your soul that makes
Spring flowers bloom.
You show hate is no king,
Just another fool,
With a bite that doesn’t sting.
