Tell Me Who You Are

Tell Me Who You Are

tell me who you are
not what you are; that’s just an illusion
tell me who you are
with beautiful words, show me your heart
identifiers just cause confusion
and labels to presumptive conclusions
tell me who you are

“Try to imagine what it will be like to go to sleep and never wake up… now try to imagine what it was like to wake up having never gone to sleep.” – Alan Watts

upside down,
gravity immune,
gaslit dreams
are nightmares
that becomes more horrible
when people wake up

It’s Relative

pleidae in puddles
great blue whales in the ocean
it’s all relative

Eat the Damn Cake

Eat the Damn Cake

let’s be audacious
eat sweets, dance in the rain, laugh
life’s for the living

The Web

lovely, stark, the web,
trapping the oblivious,
silken shrouded death
