A tolerant revolution began
The exact diameter of doubt
A product of the monster perhaps
Some confusion of steam
(Though young in me it was no child
Really just the oldest of old feelings)
The dismissal of which was temporary

Still Blushing
Unlikely explosion
Spontaneous heat
Gradual breakdown
A shadow of the innocent age
No Flight
Stress
Lean yourself on me
I’m formatted to convert you into s m o k e
On Discovering
Life is about push and pull
Give and take
Though perhaps the key
Isn’t to live above it
But rather to figure out
A way to live in-between
My Zero (Reprise)
i.
The one
You are not
I have found “the one” several times before
And no longer are they my ones
But the ones of another
The one
You are not
But my zero
ii.
I will bring the scent of many before youse
Women on my hips
In my beard
In my hair
In my mouth
Between my thighs and my fingers
Yes, an ocean of jealous females
Will come
But when I multiply them
By you
They will be nothing

On Success
First:
Be thirsty for failure
Wordsmith Apprentices
By Benjamin Grossman and Cassa Bassa
This daily script interferes
With any royal mood
Leaving abstract smiles
Upon the observer’s space
Each piece reaches the other
with startling ponder
Shaking up their normality
Signaling the writer’s psyche
Demanding a daily dose of encouragement
The bond sparked small
A distant curiosity sated by the choreography of words
A budding denial received confirmation in plain sight
An uncultivated heart given wings to ascend
An untamed mind flew over the boundary beyond the intellectual elasticity
(This is part of a collaborative poetic effort between myself and Cassa Bassa. Make sure you check out her blog by visiting Flicker Of Thoughts.)
