I knew to my core thought processes

Unthinkable but thought

A shock to the recesses of my mind

A bout of this world I once knew

I never thought it would not grow old

Its shiny, but icy cold

I thought I knew fear

I thought I knew hate

I thought I knew disparity and truth

I never knew it was a homophone filled with illustrious ironies

A brand of say

A brand of way

A brand of order

A brand of decay

I Knew a brave world,

Knew a status quo,

Alas there is something different

invading our psyches at will

Sitting upon the steps of our memories of a world we thought we once knew



But not you.

You're so different now

You almost act as if you never knew how it was

What ever the case, its normal now...
Figures...

let it pour until it seeps into
my pores. Let me run naked
in the stream, having wild girl dreams.

If it snows
let it cover me from head
to toe in a blanket of white. Let the children
stick a carrot in me, laugh and sing
to their delight!

If it blows
the wind, let it carry me
up high. Pick me off the ground
into a purple sky. So, the men
below can ask “is it a bird; is it a plane”

If it hails
let it hit me like a pellet
gun. I won’t run! I’ll jump
between the blasts. Stare it in the face,
and shake my ***!

Pleasure is so close to ruinous waste
nakedness wrecks decency
degradation feeds the bonfire of hunger
and the wound of desire bleeds away within

leave nothing
but the bleeding edge

ruin me

All.
Not one but all,
No true hate was ever born
without love abandoned,
rejected, abused, or scorned
Love is every positive and negative
facet of emotion
Divine and literal

Its wealth disguised by its true name -

Agapi.

Without this blind fumbling fool
We are of no use, no consequence,
no matter.
Where there is no love,
there is no existence
Only inertia.

Your deepest hate
is your deepest love in reverse
these can never be separated;
except by degrees.
like a galactic elastic band;
as far as you go for one,
you will enviably be flung to the other.
That's how energy survives,
it changes form but never dies
and life is love in all its forms

And

You are its expression devine
Love is us

The truth is out there...

No, its within.

Within 3 doors,

Truth is always obedient to its laws

A higher matter,

That's why it sets you free.

its a prisoner swap

but, there's a fee

That's why He died for you and me

And spoke of love and high places

So that we could all see

What was right in our faces

The lies and deceptions are out there

The edges of your cage

The matchsticks to your rage

Freeding your demons everyday

Within in you lies the freedom that you crave

If only you begin to see the truth inside

The big save

You are already free, save the spells cast

Of deception with which you agree

You won't cast them aside

Until you finally decide



Come find you,

come see

and maybe together

We can roam free.
Well done! You saw it the others missed it, can you guess why?
Which are you?
Deception is a tricky thing or is it?
