How often do you ask why?

Welcome to America

So it begins…

I can't be around people who think my growth is competition. If we can't be happy for one another, we have nothing in common.

Book 4

Being an entire universe
And seen only as a star
Creates a large divide
Between myself and where you are

Shall I try to shrink myself
In to a smaller space
So that you won’t feel threatened
By the smile on my face

In a world where TL;DR reigns supreme, where do I find the people still chasing long-form magic?

Book 3

It’s easy to love from a distance
To love from far away
When moments are manufactured
In spite of the miles in the way

Realize that distance
is always just a choice
Your energy flows where your interest goes
You must choose to dissect the noise

Day 2

I want someone turned on
By the vastness of my mind
Not focused on the shell
In which my soul resides

I notice when you notice
One before the next
Although I cannot help it
There is an instant disconnect

Being a universe
And seen only as a star
Creates a divide
Between myself and where you are

Some of you didn’t grow up on Care Bears and Captain Planet… and it shows.

But who then shoulders the brunt of it
The pusher or the pushed
The reaction to the action
The less severe is often overlooked

For me, I refuse to shrink away
After morphing to the beast
They wanted the little kitten
Yet the lion is unleashed

#poetry #writer #poem

Those that one should fear the most
Are the gentle few
Who are forged within the fire
From which the phoenix flew

Gentleness in later years
Goes against the grain
A stubborn will to choose love
In spite of a life of pain

#poem #poetry #excerpts #gspeaks

Apple shaped oppression
Selective memory
Oracles awakening
Rekindled Divinity

Know it was intentional
And it took much time
To ferret out and erase
The truth from all our minds

But truth is a vibration
Energy never lies
Never forever hidden
Reopen all your eyes
