Emotion embroils thought

The conscience consorts
The soul

Together they stomach
Words

Sometimes it's a painful process
But I'll never not allow the process its

Beginning
Middle or it's
End...
#vss365 #pain

I wrote this #haiku years ago:

rollercoaster ride:
fear! joy! pain! love! up, down, down
up, down. trickster laughs

How I would write it today:

fear joy pain love
up down up down up
the sound of trickster laughing

Tres leches - not so much. Pan Dulce, Atole, Flan. definitely

I hope to travel around the world to enjoy both food and culture. Gelato, #pain au chocolat, and tres leches cake are always on my list. They’re so yummy! What would you eat?

#vss365

Fantastic. Definitely feel that 9-volt on the tongue. 🤌

#pain tastes like gunmetal
mania, a 9-volt on the tongue
you get used to the flavours
soon the craving takes over
- it's dry like sawdust -
and the desperate hunger
clawing at your arm
itching at your temple
once #rejected by intellect
becomes metastatic
much akin to so-called love

Guaranteed death if i attempted to climb Everest

Would it be painful?
Probably so cold i’d feel warm & die of hypothermia
Or just slip & fall

Skiing on my ass until i fall through a 1 mile deep crack & not being able to comprehend this rapid end lights would just -

Impress the night,
stare into its chasm
with clear eyes;
#Pain is not trusting
the sun will shine,
imprisoned in
an endless night.

Exhausted,
I hug my pillow,
pretending it's u.
The world doesn't
owe me anything
bcs my heart shattered,
but it taught me I can pick
up the pieces

smile thru the onset
but the surge endures
so much longer
than it should
a bitter sting outlasting
frail remnants
of grace
the cold comfort
of a current moment
with its best intentions
whispering
"this too shall pass..."
yet some #pain
leaves scars and
cannot simply
be left in the past
#vss365

I am tired of the #pain
Bullets in my brain
Pretending to fit in

I am tired of the pain
A noose of civic strain
Forcing me to breathe

I am tired of the pain
#Inept system drain
Telling me to move

I am tired of the pain
Buoying up the vain
With no modicum of gain.

Something wrong with my brain.
Imaginary #pain.
I feel it in vain.
I wake up and I'm whole.
Doesn'tmatter.
The #chilling_caress still has a hold on me yet.

The dial was set to 10 yrs after the day of his birth. He sat back in the time transportor sipping on a glass of a fine sangiovese. He was debating whether or not to travel back to that day. The emotional pain had never waned. Did he really want to relive it? #vss365 #vsstimetravel

Master Jaffer carefully chronicled the #pain he inflicted on his property to keep it inline. There were daily scourges, a hundred rapes, and for one chattel, Jaffer covered him in honey for the flies to have him. Jaffer’s head was filled with torments, right until it came off his shoulders. #vss365

Astrophysics with mathematical precision couldn't calculate fate.
Some things are just beyond the scope of humanity.
Pretend like you have an ounce of control, while staring into the telescope.
No life without #pain.
Fantasy is your saving grace--a safe space.

“Potluck Dinner”

Pain pulled up a chair…
company at last.

"Lakasmir, you have betrayed your King, murdered his son, and turned his armies against him."

Lakasmir strained against the hands holding him. "The King and his prince have betrayed our nation."

"Silence! By his decree, you are banished under #pain of death."

Hello drugs
Bye pain
Consistent poison
Numbing the problem
Like solutions

But not the right embrace
Sick of fighting
Tired of being tired
Enjoying without guilt
How can i justify it all

Why can’t it all just turn to ashes
Don’t need the salt in my wounds
Only a pretty hi

#pain #vss365

Dying hurts. No one tells you that. There’s #pain from whatever killed you, sure. Cancer, car wreck, a hail of bullets, but it’s getting ripped out of one state of being and shoved into the next that’s the real agony. In other words, ghosts don’t moan because they’re sad.

"How did you know he was overheating?" one of the officers said to Bailey.
Bailey poured more ice into the bath where Cosmo laid unconscious. "My mentor used to have this #pain after every battle. The alien tattoo recoils like a shotgun exhausting your body." #vss365

Yesterday, your #pain saw its shadow—
six more weeks, you said.

Six more weeks holding our breath,
winter’s judge postponing spring.

Six more weeks weathering moods,
waiting for a break, waiting for a verdict.

Six more weeks until we learn
a stranger’s definition of family.
