Poshlust

Jumping through iron-clad ceiling
striving to be king of the jungle
roaring at the top of your lungs
echoes to a red misty river
clutch those ashen elbows to prepare for the imminent fall
from grace
stones afoot on long shadowless banks
give thanks
for the wind for it carries away the stench of thieves
and crooks and the decay
of morality in our day.
Since the end of tomorrow may come today
get down on all fours
and pray
for the beginning to resend anew
refresh the page and restart the stew
mix new ingredients in the primordial soup
and see what brew will come through.
A windowless pain to
shine through the pane of failed
adventures
you, sought to end the
shame that never even came but
was thought up by, you.
Stir up the brain mix the sugar
and the cane but leave out the
chains of the plantation-nation
reborn on the buffaloes horn the
red and violent view, the re-twisted braids
the natives got to stay and you
begin to see a new day
when ships that sailed
sent back to the crew
for Revolutions whose plague
was far too vague to even
make it to the stage
not even Caliban can make due.
In the sky in your eyes
there's more interesting colors than blue
like molten reds from the tears
that are shed like the snakes
who takes and then waits
until all that left if old skin.
Now where do we begin?

Happy 2011

Once again it has been a while since my last post.Okay I promise to get better at that. With all of this cold, I cannot wait for warmer weather. I can definitely see myself living in a place with mild to no winter. I would at least give it a try.

Location: Pret in Union Square, NY
Time: 6:26pm
Mood: ( insert here )

As the title suggest this is my welcome to the New Year post. Hurray, is it over yet? Hasn't been a month yet and so far 2010 is winning. My new job is avoiding me, my old job didn't pay enough but was morally rewarding, (helping children learn to read and do math is a different kind of payment). If only I could pay my bills in smiles and laughter I would be a millionaire. But I must stay positive, change is among us! Baby boomers are supposed to start retiring this year(finally!)so all of us twenty-somewhat year olds looking for some scratch, there should be openings available soon.

This years focus: money and soul and dancing and laughter i.e. progress

Even though things haven't been working out the way I would want I am still and always grateful for the love I have in my life and the fact that I still have working arms to hug them with.
