Leave me alone

Leave me alone

 

Do not love me,

Do not talk to me.

Do not think about me

Do not care about me.

 

Leave me alone

 

Do not like me

Do not notice me

Do not iquire about me

Do not understand me.

 

Leave me alone

 

Do not hate me

Do not ignore me

Do not forget about me

Do not misunderstand me.

 

Leave me alone

 

Leave me alone

Fruit

Turned away by the potent journey

Pushed by the enigma of tomorrow

My soul reaps pasture of pure grain

Not all affluent with great health

Nor wealth.

The seed planted and nurtured

The arduous motions

Fail to bring promise to happiness,

On the taste of fruit will

With ambiguous patience to heart

Will this fruit have luster?

Mundane life, though, does not

Vibrate the string of pears

Nor the hyperbole agitation,

To be carried like an egg

To be protected like a fetus

Will this, a seed produce fruit.

The salacity of fruit

Only bruise the core

Water with patient love,

Not with selfish care.

The promise is reached when

Life has begun in the hearth

Knowledge of ones own

Will culminate the soul

And one mind will center

The soul foul choices-

-Dictated by the hearth.

The allowance of this

Only created eternal life

For fruits that is borne

At hand.

Fruit


Four fell far from none

Four fell far from none

Poor and destitute the feeling,

Sadness and despair the heart banters,

Sore and bare the soul cries,

Nevertheless, dear and solid the mind is

Four fell far from none

Naïve am I

Water dances across my eyes

Red dry and bloodshot.

I was dead when my heart fluttered

Cold, faithless, and devoid

I was hurt when I was happy’

Deceit, avarice, and vengeance.

Take me away

Naïve am I

Plaguing Ignorance

Ignorance is the plague

That ravages the human race

And invisible red flag

That is ignored by the human face.

Ignorance is the bottomless,

The bottomless unknowing,

The incomplete that is endless.

Disease that is uncontrolled.

Without fear,

Ignorance would not be

With knowledge,

Ignorance would not be

Without hate

Ignorance would not be

With unconditional love

Ignorance would flee

Without apathy

Ignorance would not be

And with truth

Ignorance would not be

Without injustice,

Ignorance would not be.

With peace

Ignorance would not be a defeat

These letters may not reach,

The purpose is not to preach,

But for the whole of us,

Love is a must.

Creation of hope,

Creation of unity

With all of us,

Ignorance would be impeached.
