psychical psychosis

here we go again
ushering in a new orbit
recycled resolutions
promises from faraway lands 

with so much hope
and so much faith

until everything collapses
crumbles
and diminishes 

like dust
like nothing 

but.
with obstinacy we continue.
with tenacity we fight.
for.

in our minds, we are immortal, 
and in our minds, we live forever.

nervous nurses

there is 
far too much
anxiety 
paranoia 
and 
lunacy. 

instability. 

refracting through these mirrors. 

a couple of steps back
and look not directly
into them. 

you will be fine.
you will be okay.

ikhlas

in sickness
and in health
for better 
or worse

when transparency
is scheduled around convenience
around motives 
and gains and benefits

when honesty 
and upfront responses
are strategised accordingly 

when just 'being'
is now a myth
a legend a fairytale 

echo those vows
let them sink through your skin
drown in your blood
and encompass your soul 

sincerity
sin.cerity
your move. 
choose your adventure.

attention appetition

look at you
basking in your self-made glory 
riding on another's back 

guised in such grandeur 
so resplendent
so magnifique 

indeed, this is what you deserve 
or what you think you deserve 
from your magnified deception 

champion of champions
you win hands down 
as there was never a competition in the first place
except 
only in your head.

dark side dilemmas

this challenge 
this struggle 
it still lurks and lingers
silently residing
and then surfaces 

overshadowing
overwhelming
overpowering

deafening deafening 
with its version of propagation 
crushing 
this constant-mending 
exhausting, it is so 

to be denied 
to be patronized
to swallow this supposed positive 
courtesy 
only to be condemned 
irrational.

sly salutations

so maybe you've been here. 
or maybe this is your first visit. 
through mutual channels
and connections. 

so how do you do? 
and how do you do again. 

feel free to wonder
and wander to your heart's content. 
 
--- 

still, you will never get the idea 
nor the picture 
and decipher.

for this is just a show. 
like any other. 
like you.

a celebration of nothing (the good punk)

here's to me.
for still being me. 
for still using all senses for me.
for still reading
still listening
still breathing as me. 

here's to me.
and my array of 
imaginary awards and medals
self decorations
abundance nominations.

here's to me.
for still kickin' it. 
for still livin' it.

because
there is no be(cause).

and there is nothing to applaud for. 
and you can have them all. 

//thank you subcultures
of subcultures 
for the constant reminders.//
