OBSERVATIONS #16 – 11.23.24

The sunlight is loud, It’s noise breaks the silence, Like a comforting blanket, Surrounds me, you, us, With both narrow and broad streams of brilliant sounds, Soon turn into murmurous shadows, At once dark and transparent, Casting familiar silhouettes, Meant to share secrets. Sharp lines separate sunlight from it’s absence, In my space, geometry’s triangular…

OBSERVATIONS #14 – 11.10.24

Cast A NetCast a net into the sky,Toss into the white not blue,Sky that feels like water looks.Cast a net into the sky,Casually pull apart its soft conceal,Uncover fields of pearlescent fluffs washed in light.Cast a net into the sky,It’s weight separates the violet flower from pod,Releasing milky sap, the recipe for clouds of butterflies.Cast…

What if time is nonexistent and the saying is actually relative to how you actually feel and the frequency that emotions resides on? To my understanding (and beliefs), emotions are energies in motions. Feelings…

Dirty chucks

I dreamt that I was walking down the halls of an unfamiliar school. The school may have been unfamiliar but the way that I carried myself in my pupil days was not.  I’ve always had a big spirit, but growing up I didn’t always know that or know my purpose or how valuable it was….

Who am I 

Fumbling around in the dark Fighting faceless monsters  Collecting scars like badges That tells stories of repeated lessons  Or flawless victories  Desperately trying to find light To be able to see what battles are ahead  The pressure of wanting to be seen, heard and understood  Without trails and obstacles in place  Building character by learning…
