Inspiration


You've done it for me
so now I'll do it for you
pick you up
set you on your feet again 
for what seems like the millionth time 

Jealousy itself is a demon.
it chases around everything you live for,
living within others,
and sometimes spilling out of you.
A toxic parasite living on your misery.

I see the way you look at him 
read the look In your eyes 
see your dreams 
where you count up your bottled tears
 
your digging yourself a hole,
so deep and dark,
that he won't even be able to see,
What kind of pain he is causing.
That she won't be able to see,
That you are drowning in her looming shadow.

Turn your anger into words
manufest them into works of art
your insperation paints a picture in your head
yet never takes physical shape

so please,
write until your fingers break.

  • How can I write


    What do I write about
    when 
    people are dying
    people are mistreated
    people are misguided
    people are screaming
    people are crying
    people are morning
    people are shouting
    people are angry

    I say "people"
  • George Floyd


    Warning: violent actions and death is described.

    One upon a time, there was a man named George Floyd.
    He moved to Minneapolis, parting from long time friends and family.
  • Covid Anthem

    Our world is on repeat
    until everything is better

    Our lives are going to be the same
    until everything is better

    The same frequency over and over again
    lulling us to sleep.

    Endless nightshifts and worries
