Food for thought,Nowadays,Is artificial.Ideas refined by a process of elimination:Abandoning what makes us human.Intelligence automated by a vicious cycle of repetition.Robotic in our movement towards salvation.A salvation we'll never reach through a diet of lies most are forced to consume.But,Why do we continue our walk towards darkness?Where truth cannot be seen for miles,And,Miles on end?Are...

Tripped By The Fall – Day 116, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Trip and fall,Trip and fall,Trip and fall!I've done more times than I can count.But,Air still flows through my flaring nostrils forcing my chest to rise,With a hope impenetrable by,Sticking to a plan made for me by a God who's shown me more love,Than,Any friend ever would while dripping blood,From wounds they've cut open.When push comes...

A Three-Piece I’m Not Hungry For – Day 28, Never Give Up On Your Dreamz
Ties,Ties,Ties!They just don't suit me right.Feels more like,A noose choking to death,The kind of tranquil man I yearn to become in a world ran by financial success and duress,And…A suit is not part of who I am,Nor ever will it be for as long as I hold a journal and a pen… It's the only...

Confusion For The Ages
At this point,I'm beginning to question my own depression.My addiction.Because,I'm still sad either way.Whether or not I'm high or sober,I still feel empty while I sit down in Limbo.Wondering if I'll ever make it out… Maybe,I'm not necessarily full of sorrow because of my disappointing decision to roll another joint while my opportunities wither away.Maybe,It's...

Press Decline, It’ll Change Your Life…
Honestly,Writing’s been quite different ever since I began my journey to sobriety.A journey where I don’t half-ass it like I’ve been for the past couple of years.Smoking my troubles away,As soon as I feel any kind of pain,While repeating to myself,“Today will be the day!”Yet,Can’t find the courage to ever let Mary Jane go.Even if...

The Good Memories
Before you get up and start your day, Getting ready to clock in for work and get paid, Just to smile after being ridiculed for all the pain you may be feeling, Try not to forget how memories don't have to make you cry... Any time a thought wrenches your gut, Think about the grin... Continue Reading →
No Thinking
I don't want to want to think. Worry. Stress. But, how's it possible to do so with so much pressure life mounts on your shoulders?

Evicted From The Clan
Waking up, First thing, Bright and early? It looks like it will surely be a beautiful day! Sitting next to my window, Smoking on endo while I pray. Sipping on some tea, Alleviating me of my pain... Why can't it Be, This good? Every morning I'm standing, Weak? From this family happily handing me plenty... Continue Reading →
What’s It Like To Be A Superhero?
How wonderful it'd be to able to soar through the sky, One arm stretched out with hands coiled into fists while punching straight through a cloud or two. Maybe save a damsel in distress while cupid shoots an arrow through both of our lonely hearts. How about teleporting from this cold city, To the dunes... Continue Reading →
So Many Damn Questionz
I often ask, How do we know if what we do is right. Is it that moment of hysteria when you impale that knife, In the spine of another? Or, That sigh of relief when you decide to be the bigger person, Rather than fighting with your brothers just to kill each other?... But, What... Continue Reading →
