I keep dreaming of falling.
Sinking through clouds and bleeding skies,
The winds don't hold me and oxygen chokes me.
I wish you'd taught me how to fly.

Is a home still a home when your hat rack is gone?
Does the sun still rise without the dawn?
I'd paint the sunset, but I've lost my muse,
I'd claw at my heart, but you took that too.

I'd forget about you, but memories haunt me,
They creep into my bed, whispering softly,
Remember when we broke your mom's TV?
Or our anniversary, on April Seventeenth?

I'd pay for your piano lessons so you could sing to stars,
Okay so maybe not stars, but surely fast moving cars?
How about a trip to Eiffel Tower far off in Rome,
Fine, I guess we could always see that from home.

Your books don't make me smile, come back to bed,
You'll be just a minute, hold on, you said,
I held on to your silk quilt and fell asleep,
You said you'd follow me, before I was in too deep.

You should have told me you'd fall asleep differently,
That I would wake, and that you would stay,
I mean sure, I would have protested adamantly,
But then I'd have no choice but to let you stay.

I guess now we'll never get to see the Eiffel Tower,
It's fine anyway; I hear the air up there is sour.
And we'll never get to sing to fast moving cars,
It's okay; at least this way no potential scars.

I fixed your mom's broken TV screen,
And I got a new apartment down in Queens,
Your phone keeps on uninstalling,
And I keep dreaming of falling.

The Policy of Elemental 80 Hg
How to turn the heads of the gods…


Hyperbole defaults
To feeble absurdities
But as projected, it's ineffective
against hypocrisy

What timber could ignite
Without the base
of anguished disgrace
the simplistic guarantees
Of Hell For All Eternity.

You mislabeled me
as the failed experimentation
Of your botched indoctrination
Now I’m
--- Uninstalling your crazy beliefs
     ---- wiping unnecessary protocols of
             -----atrocious & barbaric deceits.


I control the heat
remaining subtle in a realm
contaminated by extremes,
people slurping and swarming
drawing down my serenity
I don't require civility.
Hold out my arm.
Expose my neck!
I rebirth myself. I raised myself.
I mirror, I don't reject.

Reflecting on the horrors
I witness, I attend, I align.
Receiving encapsulated caption updates
Is the blueprint of our design
Recalculating recalculations
after every iniquitous turn
Calamities are my manna.
Until its impossible to burn
After every drama, I build back stronger.
"Infallible's"compare me
to an unhinged *****
Outside the liquor store
rickety, irate, decrepit
Flapping arms, shrieking, obsessive
We ask her to wear a mask and
That squawking windsock drops
like a whisper to the floor.
She believes she's
blameless, virtuous, courageous.
But she's not programmed for more.
She's a portal, the link to the facts
that she's been holding back.

The mysterious, the marrow
The anonymous, the nameless
Fused components of the ancients.
with nonconforming brains
sequences of neuronal synapses
Prototypes of dichotomy
Chaos in ignorance highlights
while secretly we bond the lowlights
Skirting the edge of this craze.
Strap in!
Anarchy is happening.
Behind burnt orange curtains of flames
**** everything.
Our settlements rain ashes.
Until you choke on gluttonous
Zealous overreactions

You'll find you're not ******* essential.
Monitoring, testing, intending
to prevent the instantiation
Expectant alarmists rebranding progress
as biblical warning signs
--Excuse them, friends
my neanderthal cousins tend
to mow down innovation with hostility.

paralleled in our DNA
the bridges between
us/theirs/yours
I'm the half-breed you forced forward.
I provide no sustenance for power.
The gods who chewed me up and spat me out
Denounced me as unsavory

Undigested, I regenerated.
I'm the consequence, not the recipe.
You are the igniter,
the hypocrite, indignant denier.
Yearning to free yourself of me.
But I exist; it's justice,
Nobody sees you anymore,
host ghost.
No, this is not a mistake.
This is your create.
This is what you bumbled here to fate.
this unrelenting tsunami
streams constant lies and hate
Eliminate societal norms
personal integrity, blocks, restrictions, constraints.

I'm the antithesis synthesis of
frivolous amusement and benign disgust
the poet, the engineer.
Now you're trembling, filled with doubt?
simply because you're auto weeding out?

The gods accept our sincere invitation.
we’re their protégés
We're their revolution evolution
The gods are coming out to play.

-Notorious 80Hg
        (aka Mercury)

I would give you 0* if it was
possible.

This isn't a game it's a
advertisement for your wallet.

There's no rewards.

Everything is about advertisment
and we get stuff.

Playing the game doesn't reward
it's another ad break
even after watching an ad
for double the rewards.

Still no rewards just next level
after watching another ad.

Ad, ad, ad, ad, ad and
I lost my sanity after
the third ad.

Ad me on the no more
I'm uninstalling this
sanity theft it's another ad!

Awwwwwwwww!
Please spare my sanity.

Now I am hallucinating ad's
I dream about ad's,
I eat ad's,
I drink ad's.

Ad's ad's ad's!

Now I am writing a poem about ad's.

Thanks Google!

this doodling non-banjo dueling

doth admit who owns a far out mien
frequently feeling moody blue
thinking to join the blue oyster cult

so...without further ado i will slightly brag
to tell of an ability to conduct understand dos

causing hardware or software to flag
likewise uninstalling software,
running registry sweeps
in an attempt to remove bugs and errors
that cause this machine
to cough and gag
akin to the sputtering

invariably causing processes as downloading,

if chance smiles on further consideration
like a happy pup his tail

thar this syncopated cap'n

so...without further ado
about nuttin here goes...
like the great blue whale
whose water spout analogous hose
from that trade mark
porpoise less finicky dolphin
known as bottle nose
easily confused with the poor pose.

the above bit of personal
palaver i.e. poetic pablum
merely meant to convey
an atypical manner from this older mwm
with some follicles of gray
who enjoys temperatures
akin to basking in the sun during
those warm months of april or may
unless being chased
by some ferocious beast of prey
i readily admit
not to be a marathon runner
hoping said golem like creature will
(upon my stern request) stay
nor does this generic guy participate
in any competitive sports type
this son of a gunner
who accepts that he doth
newt necessarily always get his way
unless he changes his name
to **** jagger thus getting
whatever he wants - yea.

so...via me own patois brand
d'ya still need a literary hand
joost thought to inquire if a job i kin land
ideally with a reputable brand.

get ready and set
to put down your pontoon boat
per this reply to brook
ratter than shriek upon first blush
at this rather verbose lengthy email
perchance taking a cursory look
my hum blessed apology
for what might read
as pure unadulterated gobbledygook
if spoken over the phone or close
by might make me sound
like some babbling kook.

boot...boy oh boi would this pa
be enthralled to reside in this faux pas reel
or virtual quadrant of the world
and mebbe e'en earn me some substantial buck
perhaps such a fate would become
my pioneer esprit d' corps sunny
whose tongue would
(like a flipper) manifest destiny
twirled inside his mouth evoking noisome cluck
if this guy noir properly
lines up his gull able quaking duck
yet due to the uncertainty principle
(known in me noggin as flux)
and perhaps a positive out come
will take place with gathering angels
atop a pin to pool me lucky charms of luck
versus being trapped
in vices of mires and muck
evoking that swan song of harp strings
one bad **** bard of Belmont Hills pluck
envisioning even performing task manually
serving the role
whose lithe fingers corn shuck
or being a test driver
for eco-friendly cars, planes, or truck
which t'would putt
a screeching halt to the penury yuck.

this fettered displeasing situation i would gladly trade
which life drab, hopeless, lackluster
and essentially rather staid
if all and/or most
of the relocation costs would be paid
this prospecting/prospective employee
would consider packing his hobbit sized
bill bowed bowling green bags
for said plans to get made
yet only scrutiny of me credentials
will determine if this
generic guy noir makes the grade
and if this older papa
then of deux prepubescent daughters
considered no challenges he will be afraid.

my assertive, contemplative, decisive, elusive, furtive, introspective motive and pensive personal predilections could be perfect for ascertaining and scrutinizing the quarks that seem to aggravate any user of technology.

nonetheless and despite responding in a most non-conventional/ non-establishmentarian formalistic manner, this netizen plows (with his furrowed brow) full stanley steam ahead.

anyway, i real lee downplay
TOOT ting my own horn
from this jimmy crack corn
from a kernel borne.
