Brilliantly after saying my Prayers the candle burned out.
Glistening & Glimmering were the stars.
From Dusk til Dawn
Over looking the sea on which the moon was shining.
I sat marinating in the lunar night.
As if my fortune of Heaven, Yielded the sensation of gratitude, resting in my snow white sheets.
Inspired by solitary places I have been  under the night sky.
Amber walked to sight, a blessing unseen until tonight.
I took a leap of faith and then Amber walked on to my path. Now we hold hands on walks through day and night.
I have not read this to her she does not know about this poem. It's about us but it's for me a secret for now until the right morning.
Charlie Brown said: We only live once.
Snoopy said: No Charlie we only die once. We live everyday!
Born to die
Live to cry
Life is a river
Go with the flow!
After my last heart break......
I build myself a castle
Protected by a Great wall
With a Grand draw bridge and it was pulled up, closed, unwelcoming.
A beautiful moat with an abundance
Of nature surrounding it's banks
Drained of it's spirit and soul.
Spying on potential lovers from my ivory tower.
I felt safe, lonely, unhappy, unfulfilled.
As I stare
Far into the deep black sky
A twinkle in my eye
The light shines from such a distance
That it source is no longer in existence

Vast like the desert
Infinite like the universe
My heart & mind
Understanding them both
An endless moment in time

Personal Legend is the journey
Eternal alchemy is the key
Spirit in my Temple
please guide me
As I stare into eternity
I AM an Alchemist!!!!
Without food to eat the Nopal grew from the desert street.
The defending itself with thorns
Lacking water to drink
Somehow it produced tunas to eat
Knowing that they would judge the Nopal
By the fruits He bare
He was still proud, it was rare.
I wrote the poem “Nopal “ based off a Sunday church service about being judged by the fruits we bare as “Christians”. I asked myself what kind of fruit do I bare? Then I came to the conclusion that although I do not bare a lot of fruit, I produce fruit grown in the baron desert like the Nopal produces tunas. Not in great quantities, but high quality in a land of limited food. I am a Nopal.
Set in the Sky's horizon at dawn was the Morningstar.
The Moon Luna tagged along right behind.
Follow by the brightness of the Son of man.
No words can express the secret agony of my soul as I sunk into this companionship.
There is no new thing done which is not been, even this is vanity!
Last night I caught a baby rattlesnake woke up early to release it. I was rewarded by seeing this event take place......!
The fear evaporated and I became articulate and apparently very very funny.
The fortitude and resilience of youth made me invincible.
I drink and became drunk,disintegrated, psychiatric help I could not practice abstinence.
Reading self-help books from Freud to Jung.
The relationship with alcohol will always be there waiting to ****** me.
The relationship with alcohol became insidious, terrifying until I walked into AA and found some help.
AA, NA, CA, SA, **** even AAA.
I am a straight a student.
Drama, trauma, toxic, delirious
As though moving a checker to another square
My life perception is in despair
A great book read twice
Aristocat in Paradise
A masquerade to escape my life
I brought a knife to end my life
Life is a mirage you live everyday
you only die once
So live day to day
Re written
I AM whatever you say I AM
If wasn't then why would I say I AM
I AM whatever I say I AM!
If I wasn't why would I say I AM!
Eminem with the Michael twist
A smart person knows what to say
A wise person knows rather to say it or not.
What's understood doesn't have to be said.
Do you want to be right or at peace?
The truest piece I ever wrote!
I'm not going to let no mud duck run amuck on me!
As you focus on many things Distortion is inevitable.
Imagine the mind not correctly focus on one particular idea, but several at once.
Similar to a magnifying glass not properly calibrated.
With some adjustment that same instrument focused will create a beam of light, hot enough to create fire, cut Egyptian Stone.
The Spirit that lives in our Temple, Gift by the LORD of the universe, fixated on one particular goal, you will burn a whole thru space and time.
In between those ears is a powerful laser beam.
Magnify with me, let's harness this unlimited power, let's zoom in.
Glorify with me, this boundless energy gifted by the Alpha and Omega.
God said let there be light and there was light.
We were granted the same powers.
A mile wide an inch thick
A Brick wall playing a card trick
Chewing gum n hard ****
Met her at the bar, *** is fit
A woman's seduction
I AM an addict
Hit it then quit
I AM a master manipulator at this ****
I walked into the bar I AM the white rabbit
I got the MapQuest to destruction
It's a one way trip
PAM a vicious cycle
I'm tired of this ****.
Michael EL Nopal grew from a Baron land
The defending himself with thorns
Thirsty For water to drink
Somehow he produce pitayas to eat
Knowing that they would judge the Nopal
By the lack of fruits He bare
He was still proud, they was rare.  
Ripe with dimples, smiling with a dare
Even through pain, still willing to share  
A thorn to the heart as I stare, life is a mirage and he is no longer there.
I AM Michael El Nopal!
Inspired by my grandfather Alejandro Ramirez.
Cause I'm a ******
Yeah I'm a ******
Yeeeee Let's go Baby!!!!
That's right that's right
I'm buzzing in from light years away
Putting a whole in ur lid
Like that ****** kid named Sid
All yeee toys bore me

The Wicked Wizard of the West bring yeeee words you can digest
I got the MAP quest
PAM I knock you out
Initials in reverse
My spells and curses well rehearsed
Yeahhhh I'm a ******!!
Yeeeee Let's go baby!!!!!!

I would appreciate the feedback if you haven't already. []V[] ∆ []D
A person with powers like mine never dies.
Ambiguous and open to interpretation, colorful and vibrant.
People are insecure, and their identities are in flux.
My poise and attitude increases the fear.
Never obsessed with the obsessive quality of peoples interest.
The ultimate social evil is boredom, which I AM not
Influence of people sense of self in this manner is insidious and profound.
With the gift to turn the base matters of words into gold.
Similar to the gift of the Philosopher’s Stone.
I AM an Alchemist please don't throw
Rocks at my Throne!
.
Inspired by The Alchemist!
Flora, Fauna, Funga
The future is Funga!
Now is the time to understand what it holds.
The Furci
Aaahaaa moment has arrived
A beautiful time to trip out
N hide!!!
Transported in a Dysfunctional Pangaea because of the global supply and demand hidden in economy.
Deadly to humans trees and amphibious things.
Beware of the Death Cap it means more than a psychedelic scene
It leads to the ultimate paradox it's a deadly end instead of the opening to Pandora's box!
From the high desert looking down to the city
People in the material world I pity.
Looking from above it’s like an animal farm.
Sometimes I imagine strolling on down displaying my charm. Aristocats, sipping fine wine, but I will not talk to them.
I will not cast my pearls into the swine.
Oh yea **** your fine wine.
Who told you they would be out because the blacktop is hot?
Who's light was used to find it slithering where you said it would not be?
Who sacrificed their personal belongings to catch and release?
Who talks and talks and knows not true facts with data that is incomplete?
Who listens to redrum music?
Who is the one doing The shining?   OOOOH that's me!
I caught the baby Mojave rattling green?
Who?
Michael A Pettigrew took a rod & wrapped the poisonous rattler and had them stare terror in the face.
That old serpent deserves to live in fear with Grace.
On the Sabbath day these events took place.
I originally wrote this talking about someone else am I a compliments of catching the Mojave green then realize me and this person were the same thing.
Warm & comfortable
Feathers & cotton
I AM cooler then the other side
Where ever I lay, it provides
A soft place my tears
It's absorbed them for years
Wrapped around my head
It protects my ears
Silly play fights
During the day & Dreams at night
I Love my pillow it's the best
For alleviating stress.
This poem was inspired by a recovering addict at the Tarzana Treatment Center.
Thank you creator of the universe for the gift of life you have given me. Thank you for giving me everything I have ever truly needed.
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to experience this beautiful body and this wonderful mind. Thank you for living inside of me with all of your love with pure and boundless Spirit, with your warm and radiant light.
Thank you for using my words for using my eyes for using my heart to share your love wherever I go.
I love you just the way you are and because I am your creation I love myself just the way I am.
Help me to keep the love and the peace in my heart and to make that love a new way of life that I may live in love the rest of my life.
Aaaaaaamenn!!!
Honor thy mother, Serve thy brother  
I see The Angel in me
Jaded by the World ,40 years, 40 nights
At War with the flesh , A Prince, A Knight
I Am Michael & Hail! Christ is King!
May The Holy Spirit be with Yeeeeee!

Real eyes
Realize
Real lies
Tupac Shakur
The ringing bell vibrating with no clock to punch
Tearing a hole through time & space
Looking for levers & circles to manipulate
Ring that bell at a high rate
Witness my mind state,
Enter the subconscious then create.
Transported with grief & mortification.
Making motions at myself with a razor.
I determined that this life was endurable.
In this house, as I hope to go to heaven.
I was young & childish.
I was in an alarming state.
Dealing with a thing so anomalous.
I suffered in secret & exquisitely.
Through perfectly familiar with my conduct.
My manner was different enough.
Never to do to-morrow what you do today.
Procrastination is the thief of time.
Collar it.
My spirit in terror malnourished by my environment.
Be yourself everyone else is already taken.
Inspired by reading David Copperfield during my tenure at the Tarzana impatient Treatment Center.
Imagine the alpha and Omega choose you to have a son. Her son physically weaker than Hercules slower than Achilles.
In a divine way he conquered without spreading hate.
We know man created his story but where is her story? Why do they keep it classified? Ye who records her story seduces history. Women have powers that are stored away and man suppress them because they're afraid.
All Hail Guadalupe!!!
Smiles like the sun, Affection like water
The Love Flower grew in front of my eyes.
Blooming with ambition!
In colors of joy, Tears in my eyes
The Love Flower has filled my heart.
Thank you for letting me see you bloom,
From the bottom of my heart.
Yours truly PAM!
Man in mad pursuit
One thing after another
Laboring to master the world
Bound by human limitations
Chasing after the wind
All work under the sun is vanity

Increase of knowledge
The spoken WORD
Ramble and Babel
In the end Death to the WORD.
Fear the man with the book
He’s quite savvy and talks, absurd.
All is vanity burn the books
They teach spells, they curse!
Downloaded from a cloud
Word chiseled on a Tablet:

At first there was the Word
Without sound it was heard
Sight beyond time
GOD, Our Temple, our mind.

First thought is natural
Second is choice
Action is reaction
In heaven as on Earth

Fear of the Lord refines hearts
The Love of Christ defines hearts
Holy Spirit surpasses knowledge
See you in the dark.
A fish from the sea that can climb a tree!
Like flowers to the beez
I got you honey
Lack material of money
Still holding the ultimate
Currency
Ability to switch attitudes to
*Positivity
The ultimate currency is to be able to influence people into positivity inspired by Jim Carrey.
I edited this .......
The tree of knowledge taught me how to send spoken word back. Lucifer asked me a question and I answered back! Telepathically I sent a vibration back. I realized you can get kicked out of heaven for that.
Taking the next step in your journey is all about trust.
Power of Faith, travels beyond our perception.
A whole another simulation of new possibilities.
The Bridge of Faith removes relentless terror.
Teleporting you from past to present from old to new, from lack to abundance.
There is always an unseen path.
Either take the first step or learn to fly.
Remember I am The Alchemist I will either turn into the wind or die!
Hope walks through fire and faith feeds it!
Moments in life feel cursed
Seeing my FAM in a Hurst
Broke as hell
I'll die in a Burst

Baptized by water
Puried by fire
Born with the eye of the tiger
I am mutible & inspire

In Pisces for 2000 years
A fish swimming in tears
As Aquarius appears
I'll spend the next 2000
Conquering fears
My birthday is February 26th 1986

— The End —
