There are more things
That are not things
Than there are things
That are things.
Potential is a powerful,
Abundant resource.
To tap into the
Unknown, uncharted,
Unachieved, departed -
And introduce it to
What it means to Be -
Makes every artist
A midwife.
Without the great alchemists -
The artists, the dreamers,
Visionaries, poets, musicians -
Those who enter into
Akashic Records
Like a library -
We would only ever have
What has already came to be.
Like a technical computer reality.
Art brings us closer
To the cusp of Life.
Mother Earth is the greatest artist
I've ever known.
Being Human means
Being an artist.
Our Mother may soon
Scold us
For coloring all over the walls.
Making an artist takes time.
In the Universe,
There's plenty of that.

Put my heart on a glass slide,
Smear its contents on the surface.
Let the tears on it dry out,
Then place it on the rack to start.
Stain it red blood from my wrist,
Rinse the scarlet with your kisses.
Pour acidic jealousy,
And let my tears wash it away.
Some drops of methylene blue...
The color of your eyes and sea...
That stained memories and my soul.
Flush it down with new tears again,
And watch the methylene blue
Stain my negative heart and stay.

i will be an asterism
in the constellation of your being
as long as if it means
you'll finally allow yourself
to glow
the way i see you

The more we reach out
The more we fall
We are insignificant
To the world
The universe
Existence
That's why there is Faith
That's why
There is Death
That's why
Denial exists
In this
Finite infinity
-A cloaked wall.
