Miami's Poem: Hendrixity (Jimi Hendrix' Purple Haze poem remix)

*this is a poem from my friend Miami (www.twitter.com/MiamiLPanema) in honor of Jimi Hendrix...check it out & leave feedback*

Pull Heads
Turn off the Lights
Psycho...Delic Trice
Spinnin.....
Ghetto Ways

Excuse me, while I kiss the sky.

Blast me
Try to see if I'm ok.
But all you do....
Is drive my trains
Into,
Tunnels that's stoned

Its too late to tell me right from wrong.

Between.
What was a strong of love.
Sex me baby
Wit all your songs.
Singing
Lasted for one night

Now I'm back to say that I'm still high

Hendroxikayted
Tank hunt of mentally
Algababrated
Souls one immortally
NeoFoxADrankTea
Sultextatry

Speak english to me please....

Pull Heads
Turn of the Lights
Psycho...Delic Trice
Spinnin.....
Ghetto Ways

Excuse me, while I kiss the sky.

Fog formin in my eye's way
My 3rd view is saying to infiltrate.
A new wrong.
But I want it out my way.
How something so good,
Can take away my sane

2003-2007 Previews - The Room Pt. IV (Curtain Call)

Black suit on,

black tie,

white shirt

with the lipstick smeared...

left collar.

It's been a while since our lips kissed here

Been a while since she let her guard down...

dismissed fear for the sake of making love.rain...

dear.

Went from every day feeling like December 25th,

the most special time of the year...

to my reality being brought down to ground Zero:

the world's crashing and burning around my ears...

I left everything I cared for...but all signs point back

to here...this room with so much history etched in,

like a desktop showing who I love...sketched in pen.

I survey the room...no sight of her...

except for the pile of clothes on the floor,

and the hanger marks, but of course...

a trail of love's paint in the direction of the window?

I admit...I am caught off-guard for once in life.

My mind has already put together the scene,

I just wish it wasn't starring my wife.

Slow stalking steps toward the cherrywood frame

bloody fingerprints smeared on the pale yellow walls...

surrounding the window in which life turned into fallacy,

and the end of the beginning turned concrete, became.

There was no need to look out and downward;

Already knew in my mind she was long gone...

She was enamored with what's out the window,

every bird to fly, every moonrise, every dawn...

Perhaps I was caging her in, trapped in this room,

A Romance Doomed, an spiritual demise to 'us'...

or the actual sunrise of distrust shone strong

to eradicate the lonely nights of togetherness?

Nevertheless, she's free now...didn't use the door,

it would have been too much like a failed audition;

a Hollywood Divorce...

You walk out knowing that it's all said and done...

and there's only regret from both parties left over.

Well, this is the end of my scene.

I'm all dressed now,

well-groomed and high-strung

rope's irritating the neck,

had no idea how it stung...

the Sun shines bright on my waves,

swinging back and forth

above a kicked-over chair

where my still body sways...

this is the Honeymoon,

we should toast to life now.

2003-2007 Previews - The Room Pt. III (Out The Window)

I can feel another presence in this space.

As if the person were RIGHT.HERE...

wrapped up in her feelings...or

wrapped up in our dealings.

I drove her and myself to crazy...

right within these four walls.

There are scrapes on the floor,

multiple scratches on the door..

all so deep, that the room began to bleed.

This is where I spent my time...

minutes, hours and days...

locked in, just us two...

sizing each other up,

trying to figure out one thing:

who's the victim?

There's no escape for one of us...

as good as dead here.

Worst part is, this room brings out the best...

...and the worst of regrets and fears.

and the only way to rid of them,

is throwing them out the window.

But even that idea's out the window,

because no one else deserves that...

won't rely on help to break my wall.

Can't bear down on someone...

like a blazing September Sun,

breaking my Fall...

Now it's all out the window...

and everyone now knows...

like a too loud heated convo,

and it's nobody's business.

Trapped in this room...

with HER, no less.

Life is grand, I suppose

because she cares...

and I could have ended it,

by throwing it all out the window.

But I didn't...

But I still have that option.

Nightmares.

Every day leads to a nightmare...
and nights ease into nightmares.
The Sun is shining...
But that's just Hell peeking in to make sure I suffer.
At night, the moon shines...
so I find reason to drink
and dull the thoughts
that the moon is just God turning her back on me.
This isn't a movie:
if She's walking off, I won't call out...
Foolish pride is unscripted,
and far less dramatic,
causes far less static...
at least in my fabric.

Everyone's supposedly cut from different cloths...
so I keep my mind naked and wide open,
to share my unadulterated thoughts.
I run into things I didn't see coming,
the pain causes tears...
my eyes cry open.
I close my eyes and run into things
that I thought I had finally escaped.
So I open my eyes...
Try to save myself, no one else wears the cape
only to awake to
another day full of nightmares

note: My next few posts will be some previews (in a sense) for what to expect from 2003-2007. For those who know what I'm talking about...yeah, here's a peek at some stuff I was toying with in assistance. Don't worry though, the ones I post won't be in the book...[warning: It's more of a dark themed overall feel...but perfect timing in regards to feelings.]

*this is some dual poem shit in a sense...the slash is the divider. First line/lines are the male, the secondary line(s) are the female. It all takes place in "the room"...as they both are in there at the same time, silence being deafening.*


We descended back down here in Hell so suddenly; it's unreal...

Things used to be high flying like a dove, felt like Heaven's dream/

I remember being on Cloud 9 at all times when waters stood still;

suddenly the room was engulfed in flames, something I've never seen..

Now I feel myself isolated, outside of the feelings she's all caught up in,

trying to peer over the wall that's been formed to defend against me/

I somehow feel trapped within my own defense mechanism against him,

but I've always left the door unlocked for if he ever tried to step inside...

This is a game of chance that I'll have no parts of...it shouldn't be like this,

going to bed with poker faces on, only to wake up protecting our hands/

I always sit up at night and stare at my reflection in his wedding band,

maybe it's me who's complicated things; maybe it's not just the man...

I can't take this, I'm grabbing my jacket to get some much-needed air...

Everytime I look her way, she's always seemingly gazing out the window.

Fine, I'm tucking my heart; no Valentine...grabbed the handle of the door,

looked back one last time...no goodbyes./

I couldn't find the words to make him stay when I saw him grab for his coat,

so I did what I've been trying to do to what's holding me back: let go...

We've both got our demons, but he's seemingly vanquished his & reached out

Attempting to help me...but it's not that cut and dry; I'm needing an escape route.

Her:

So here we are, alone yet again...

just me and my own worst enemy...

I cannot think of anything else to do,

other than grab the clothes hanger...

and make a fortress out of clothes,

to defend myself.

This room isn't big enough for the both of us/
This room isn't big enough for the both of us...

The sunset shining I see out the window is an example,
a symbol if you will...of the dwindling hope for us/
The sunset shining used to easily draw my attention;
now it serves as a distraction so I can forget about 'us'...

This wooden closet...if it were to hold all of our problems,
it would need an infinite amount of hangars and shelves/
He's looking at the closet in a transfixed state...
as if he sees every one of his skeletons before him...

Look at her, judging...assuming...and I thought she was the best of them,
turns out she's AGAINST ME...she's simply just like the rest of them/
I have no idea where his mind has gone...where the man that was so ALIVE,
so eager, so IN LOVE has gone...to leave me with this shell of him...

I've spent countless hours in this very room, walking on this oak floor...
wondering where it went wrong, why it went out the window.../
Little does he know the days that I've sat in the middle of this floor...
surrounded by clothes strewn everywhere, tears fell somewhere...

The heels on my Oxfords making scratches as I turned and wheeled,
back and forth...pacing away to a suicidal soundtrack in my mind.../
..scrapes I've created in the wood, from the hangars I've clutched,
when self-inflicted pain was my crutch...bloody Merry in a sense...

It's why I always folded up her clothes she left haphazardly on the floor,
it gave me something to focus on...take my mind away from the window/
He always seemed so concerned with why I was mopping and waxing the floor,
I swear he saw the scrapes from me...but never said a word; anything...

Stumbling around the kitchen,
eyes glazed, drunken stupor
but the pain hasn't numbed a bit...
it just seems to have gotten more intense.

Intentionally falling head-first into the counter-side,
in two ways you could say I'm trying to cut corners...
because my amnesia is seemingly defective,
subjective...
I wish that it was at worst a little bit selective...
So here I am, enjoying being drunk off of liquor
but suffering from sobering heartbreak...
Trying the transferrence of pain trick,
bumping my head to shape my brain up quick
in hopes of some type of major memory loss.

Maybe then I could be happy, if I could only forget
the stories told to me without blinking or stuttering,
with eyes wavering or muttering,
trying to rebuild a foundation on some MAC lies...

Making others suffer for my own pain was never my intent
So I just keep banging my head...hoping to one day forget.

It's all in the eyes...
That's where I always saw the spark
The light strong enough to brighten all of my days
Bright enough to keep the dark thoughts away...

Now all that matters is decayed,
So my thoughts turn grey
Like her hair will never be,
And the tombstone at her grave.

You were helping me find myself...
Left me without a map, and all by myself...
Can't muster up the courage to just die myself...
Just to meet you; so I just sit in the dark and cry...
By myself.
