The Absentee

 



Have you seen a mother who forgot how to care?
Have you known a father who was never really there?
Do you have contempt for your own kin?
Your emotions don’t lie—they come from within.

They too have faced the world’s cruel hand,
Once a child, innocent and bright.
They struggled to survive, but their world was hard.
They did survive—but was it worthwhile?

Forgiveness is hard, forgetting even more.
It can't be forced, for it comes from your core.
Build your boundaries, respect your soul.
Be present, and strive to make yourself whole.

Let me in

You will run. You will hide. You will try to defy me with all your might— But you shall never escape my sight. Not through lies. For I am every truth you’ve ever denied. You think you know your “self”? You’ve been deceived. I see the void in you— It called to me in pain. A chamber where you buried Your anger, your grief, your guilt, your shame. I whisper in the ears of those Who betray their own knowing. And when they silence that whisper— (as they always do)— That’s when I become the menace I am. That’s when they judge me as evil, outright. That’s when they realize— I am inevitable. I was always there— Inside you, Around you, Warning you. But you never wanted to face your truth.

You listen—not out of trust, But necessity. So I offer you this: Accept what is, Release what was never yours. If you want out...

My Darkest Night

It's Wednesday night, June 26, 1981. I am walking through the alleyway of this street. I can’t quite recall the name of it. I see a couple on the other end, lost in conversation. They have a little boy with them. Then, out of nowhere, a few muggers surrounded them, demanding money and valuables. I knew what I had to do. I was prepared. "I have the money you need!" I shout at them. The burglars turn toward me. "You are one dumb muthafucker, aren’t you? We’ve got two bags of silver now," they taunt, laughing among themselves. "No... This time, I want you to leave them be." With that, I activate my invisible cloak and disappear before their eyes. "What the—!" I disable the mugger closest to the couple with a jaw-breaking hit to the face. I break the arm of another and punch a third in the gut. Now, only the one who had taunted me remains—he has a gun in his hand. Before he can point it at me, I appear in front of him in a flash and grab his hand...

The Unveiling of the Wild Within

A poetic journey through desire, restraint, and sensual release. Every desire has a journey. It begins in awakening —a spark we can’t fully name. Then comes the constraint —when we start to silence what we feel. And finally, if we choose to follow that spark, comes expression —raw, honest, and alive. These three poems embody that arc: from arousal , to inhibition , to forbidden pleasure .
