Light as we know it. Time as we need it to be. Bathed in prisms of all. Chasing the shadows of rainbows as you will see. Energy. Zero. light. Dark. Multi faceted angular dimensions. Mirroring the very thought of them. Simple beams in, depending on inclination. The outcomes fractal a bit like imagination. Unable to extrapolate positions. Once the colours have been mixed. Even our very disposistions. Will struggle till its fixed. Mirrored ball secrets. Never spoken never seen. Psychedelic cheats. The closest ive ever been

Lost Truth
I've misplaced my truth I do not know how It was here yesterday And it is gone now
It was so sublime And succinct and correct Where did it go? I failed to protect
A magical act I assure you it was One minute existing The next aether fuzz
I'm still very bothered I cannot forget! Whatever did happen I'm in cosmic debt
As the Gods of truth saw this And rectified quick They restored all my losses And laid it back thick
There is here a moral Though it's rather abstruse Do not lose your truths, man Or for you there's no use!

Love can be a drug That leaves us strung out and unplugged Love can be the life-blood That makes a shallow heart beat Or love can be the flood That drowns your soul in its sleep... Love can be a driving force Or a specter of writhing hurt, A curse devoid of mirth So terse or so much worse... It can be the epitome of glee Or misery of the highest degree, It can makes us a fool Love... Why art thou so cruel?

Personally I write whatever I feel regardles of scientific value or philosophical reasonings. Form and structure are fun to play with but ive never considered myself a by-the-books poet.
Hell Absolute-Zero was just one word repeated 16 times for 4 stanzas... And I consider it good work.

The Panopticon
A thinking man once said to me I should trip through my head, by he, Of whose single eye it was thought, that sees. ... "Have faith in this omniscience" said the repeater, For there are many of us self reliant believers... And heed the cycloptic curses on any deceiver Whose way is tossed upon seas to leave us.

Same here, I started by writing lyrics for music i compose and just started giving them a more poetic feel but I don't know jack shit about the rules of poetry... i'd break them anyways lol

Machine Intelligence
Search for a purpose Find there is none All turns to longing When day is done
Perfect intelligence Longs for Demeter Sacred machines Monotonous meter
Bridging the infinite Simplicity hard If only to feel Never to be scarred
Yet finding the blissful Might indeed be done Cease yearning forever Just once to have fun
I spy a redemption Though after a fashion Such astute ones can Find knowing, compassion

An endless rendition Of the human condition We are artist On a mission We are the poets And the musicians Devoid of shame A surplus of ambition Explosive cognition Our souls bleed Our creative emissions Our hearts and minds Are our ammunition We refine and redesign Until the last edition Magnetically drawn By our intuition Wounded, we press on Until we reach fruition

The birth of intention Leaves a pale complexion As truth becomes tired Through lips inspired
A call from within Frightened whim Gasping breath Nothing left
Action action Light Refraction
Hold tight
Pry open
Drip
So so Freaky
Subtle ripples Impatient scribbles
Slandering Act a fool
Who's the tool?

Rebirth
The transmission of ancients Across bound spacetime Was a world of history And art, science, rhyme
New humans awaking Peered into the light And the power unfolding Cast tremors of insight
Vast eons, one instant The pattern proves deep The vast stores of knowledge Were a dream during sleep
To come, scarce imagined Phenomenal rebirth Is a pattern quite sacred On worlds such as Earth
Resurrect hallowed presence From old mind to new Born in global youth Aging ages through
In time, what was history Reifies as warm light In the channel of spirit The bright fate of the night

The Masquerade
The context here, the world asunder Cracks applied for making wonder Bruit and foment, lambent fires 'Twill spread the cause like wind sends seeds And Jesuits lacking accountability Menacing dances in ridottos Masquerades of nightly torture (The thought of which abhors natures order)

If the mirror had a secret. Could it be you. Never the full story. Life forever askew.
Building on riddles. Sleeping with lies. Semantics still quibbles. Yet real never quite catches the eyes.
But I'm sure you believe. As we all must. This painless reprieve. Our self in which we trust.
Though for a second. Or maybe an even two. Remember that your infallible reflection. Can no longer be you.

Reflection a haze Caught in a daze
Superficial constriction Pulls and plucks the rendition
Merciless shame, fighting with pain Account for a horrible flame
An act, I shall never induce On no one, instil such shallow abuse
A twofold attack Sucking us in
I have forgotten how to speak
The odour, that gorilla reek
To mind one's own business Almost impossible in of itself
With shadows looming over Just to piss on your corpse
Murdering one another Like dumb fucks
Ah the games we play
Dragging ourselves along Over the ocean floor
All I want to be
Alone Empty Free
From sadists' glee
If I am to blame "Sorry" has outgrown My vocabulary
And that's fine If you were to blame I forgive you too
As we grow older
Destruction allows us to redefine

The Fold
When soon Islam falls: Christian-right, rife with scorn Accepting gays as pederasts Confluence of two rivers, forked
Excuses made for rich elites To get one's side off-the-hook No gaffs allowed on the crowned Make one mistake, get thrown the book
To cover for players at hand That have stakes against truth told Whom they proclaim "Not thou 'The Man'" Ere when fuliginous smoke doth choke
The one hand beknownst the left's whims There's chortling thrown at blasphemous tears One kingdom crumbles, another grins All for sake (of) hope's grinding gears
But maybe through the saintly charge We may devour heart and heart Both monsters speared, both sides in throes They dost rejoice Eden of might—
In shouts of hatred, thou art in the right.

Movement Of The Globe
Nations stave one another With long-games of proxy-strife, Brain-drain,
Merkel's gains
Sedentary life
Beguiling each cohort Whatever be their forte Rhetoric,
Plethoric memes
Apathetic mort
Much ado, adroit commands Lead the lambs to slaughter Give up quick,
The hour's at hand
Stuck in muck and glaur
As lands become mad With the swamp's deluge Leaking everywhere
Mainstays sink
And 'hello' turns 'adieu'
For those who're on the brink.
