I wrote a note to my heart a reminder to feel after being sedated by endless cups of social lubricants caressing tongues with the smooth taste of intoxication the heart forgot how to feel Society, drunk with crisis drowning logic with to-do lists all everyone wants to do is disconnect dance to the beat of irresponsibility fornicate the pain away mental and physical bodies stripped naked by the bare necessities Go ahead prompt me I am the original intelligence there’s nothing artificial about me my face has lines where my cigarette puffs reside I don’t wear sunscreen and my wrinkled smile shows I asked you to prompt me… poke your fingers in the holes of my conversation I will reply with a truth so naked it seduces a conversation prompt me with questions that corner my thoughts and squeeze nothing but reality botox-ed with emotions so raw, you’d feel the sweat drops from the passion within Prompt me with your worst I will reply with my insecurities and fears my sickness and desires my sick desires my emotional damage my damaged emotions Prompt me with your best and watch me twirl you into a poem stir you like a tornado into a flower storm of peace of mind peace or just a mind… oh wow, it’s been a while I haven’t met a mind … Prompt me, be bold I fall for courage I also fall for “I don’t know’s” now that’s another story for another day As of now, snap back lower your corporate glasses put your hand on your chest I bet you can’t prompt that beat "Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, AWAKES." - Carl Jung
