83125, Junk Drawer Treasures ....
Posted by PhotoSynthesis, Sun Nov-08-09 06:52 PM
Today ... I committed to cleaning out my desk drawer ...... A drawer with several strips /pieces of paper containing my written words, phrases & sentences -- (insane thoughts, ideas, brain farts and /or quotes)

I'll prolly never turn any of them into beautiful poetic flow~etry ... but I'mma still share them ... for what it's worth ... :P

* shattered expectations form mosaics on the "wall of shame"

* I followed the glow~fire in the sky / Burned off the lid of my third eye / Now I see victory / Manifested thru my battle cry

Forces pull against hands of time
Tryin' to change my destiny
I thought it was only 12 o'clock
Now I look ... and it's almost 3:00
I am but a woman~child ... lookin' for my cup of tea
... Kool~Aid though it may be ...
But that silly rabbit told me the Madd Hatter was punctual
And this damn clock ain't even functional
... Chiming & ringin' every other hour ...
Damn!
.
.
.
.
My kool aid tastes hella sour x(
So I'm torn from the arms of "the Mother of Invention"
Not to mention ... stripped of my identity
I roam free in this land of calamity
As chaos rocks my insanity with vanity
I expanded the bandwidth in my brain
Caught time in a bottle /made it scream in pain
I danced on night clouds til' they cried black rain
... leaving an awful mental stain
Yes indeed ... Now I'm insane

Lightly kissed
By the morning sun
At night I run
Under plum moonbeams
Extracting dreams
From starlit nights

This is why ... my pen writes ... :)

This ain't mine ... but it rings true ... never~the~less ...

A person who is pure of heart ... sees goodness & purity in everything
But a person whose own heart is evil & untrusting finds evil in everything
For his dirty mind and rebellious heart color all he sees & hears
With "his" own darkness


^This^ happens to be a paraphrase of Titus 1:15

Slow as molasses
Time drips thru sandy chambers
Spilling over into oracle's oasis
But the future don't look bright
No matter how much light is directed
In the crevices of creation
Cuz sedation keeps sleepy eyes drifting
Sifting through paranoia
Unable to stay focused
I think I betta call my lawyer -- :P

Good words to live by .... (Not Mine again, but still my sentiments)



Let go of the past ...
What happened in the past should never dictate who we are or how we live today ....
It tells us nothing of what is possible if we choose to walk a different path.

Yesterday is History ............. MOVE ON!

* Power without focus is just wasted energy ...


* When you change the way you look at things ... the things you look at change!

* The people who are the hardest to love ... are usually the ones who need it the most.

I have a tendency

To skim the surface

Depth is not my friend

I drown in mental residentials

But shallow thoughts & ideas create fears

Fears that live at the core of my cerebellum

So I tell em’

Get behind me – Go away!

I fear nothing

At least that’s what I always say ... :9

Treasures
Buried gently
Under layers of time
Prayers of rhyme
Uplifted /
Gifted /
Oftentimes splift~ed/
( ( ( Hibernating ) ) )
Under warm memories
Rolled with partners in crime
I'm ...
Liable to dig deep
When necessary
But my treasures
Ain’t really that deep
I’m …
Liable to write lucid dreams
In motion
Rockin’ you str8 to sleep
Counting fluffy sheep
Jumping over
Treasures
Buried gently
Under layers
Of time

Posted by PhotoSynthesis, Wed Nov-11-09 07:57 PM
I rock it
With prose lockets
In my pockets
Pictures of the struggle
Constantly B-4 me
Reminiscent of stormy weather
When kinfolks get together
And comfort one another
Lke mom & dad / sister or brother
Photo~copies made for future reference
The only difference: This family portrait is dysfunctional :(

But I still keeps rockin' ...

pho•to•syn•the•sis (fō'tō-sĭn'thĭ-sĭs)

The process in green plants and certain other organisms by which carbohydrates are synthesized from carbon dioxide and water using light as an energy source. Most forms of photosynthesis release oxygen as a byproduct.

83411, Mayan Moon Dance ... *short~short*
Posted by PhotoSynthesis, Wed Nov-18-09 01:52 AM
Victims of circumstance dance
... under Mayan moons
Singing tunes ...
Akin to Sade's "Smooth Operator"
Take the elevator down to the sound
... of heavy breathing
Leaving fate fiending for oxygen
... or Seagrams gin & juice
Get loose ...
Take off your clothes
Grey Goose? ...
Nobody knows
Poisons come in pretty packages
Bright bottles with bubbles
Blowing brains all over the place
Touching the face of future generations
Sucking brainstems thru interactive playstations
Sippin' on syrup / Steadily being sedated
Faded ... hated ... defective~ly created
Indecision mixed with poor choices
Makes voices speak louder than the mind can comprehend
Spoons & backbones bend
As victims of circumstance dance
... under Mayan moons

Things "will" change or re~arrange
Mos' def' a difference from what we are & know now

"2012"

83517, Say Whaaa ... ???
Posted by PhotoSynthesis, Sun Nov-22-09 10:12 PM
Situations of desperation call for clarified communication

... so ...

Did I understand U correctly?

Did U actually say what I thought I heard?

Did I hear U correctly?

Maybe I should just rewind my thoughts and play it back 4 U

So you can hear what I "thought" I heard.

See ...

This is where mis~communication and misunderstanding occur.

Cuz if you didn't MEAN what I thought you meant ... (what I thought you said)... Then I misunderstood.


*My Bad*

I had a Supervisor who was horrible at "communication" -- x(

At first ... I thought it was me ... (giving him the benefit of the doubt) ... but I learned from others that NOBODY seemed to understand *half the time* what the hell he wanted / what he was talkin' 'bout.

4~tunately ... I went to a Business Communications Seminar that elaborated on the "Art of Communication" -- :D

Sometimes we have to play back (((REPEAT))) what we "thought" we heard / what we thought we "understood" ... to the person giving instructions, assignments, projects, information ... and see if what filtered thru our ears & brain is exactly what was "meant" ... cuz if folks ain't communicating well ... maybe, cuz they don't even HEAR themselves talkin' (with their thoughts running a hundred miles a minute) --- they may think you knew what they wanted ... when in fact, everyone is confused in the end!?!?!?

Yaknow?


Communication is key! -- *Yeah*


*Photo squeezes ASIEM's cerebrum* --- ewwwwwwww ... what is that?!?!? -- :P
