PAIN IS A BORDER
I never thought I would see
A ku klux klan migra prostrate
Before my Japanese car
Prostrations are the same
All over the world
I submit and it hurts
But it supposed to hurt
Pain is a border
A borderline of gifts
For those who
Fall asleep on
Invisible congregations
Sleeping
Waiting to be awaken
By His word
Sleeping
But listening
Always listening
For the instructions
Of the Son of
The Man
Sleeping
While they
Defame you
And you pretend
You are not listening
Sleeping
Not waiting
To be kissed
Or to be fucked
Because you are
Too tired anyways
And that’s why
You are sleeping
Sleeping
With you eyes open
When beauty is present
Sleeping
With your eyes closed
When folly
Is around you
Sleeping
Always pretending
To rest
But you know
Only the end
Gives true rest
Sleeping
As you win
Sleeping
As you lose
Sleeping
Together wanting
To ignite some-meaning
Left & forgotten
Present but hidden
Sleeping
On a rocky road
A dusty path
Right there
On the footprints
Of the poor

LIES
At the
Dinning table
As I steer the
Seafood in
My bowl
The red can
Tells me
To lift
You up
That you
Are a classic
That you
Are good
That you
Are flavorful!
But as a placed
My lips
On the metal
It feels frigid
