and the boy
and it's wet and cold
and the girl said the sunlight is coming
and her arms were so warm
he had to cry
as she took his shirt off
and traced his spine.

What's missing is saying nothing's missing.

~  Marguerite Richards

Remember me?
Remember when I used to talk to you?
Remember the secrets I use to whisper into your ear?
I am talking to you.
Try to remember.
Close your eyes and listen.
Listen to what I am trying to tell you.
Remember when you where a child?
I was there.
Always there.
Up above,
Down below,
Even in the air.
Do not feel alone for I am forever everywhere.

rain
ohsolonginthecoming
the days melt together 
stick together
now or laters 
left in the car.

memories of walking,
no umbrella,
clothes, skin, hair 
soaked with the smell
of life.

breathe in the heaviness 
of the days getting longer,
of life getting shorter.
remember the rain.

Give it Meaning

Sometimes I do believe that the chaos in my head is created by the one and only.
Most of the time I do believe I can shut the door on the chaos, that never seems to stop wanting to visit.
The question that I do have for myself is, "is there really chaos or is this just a part of accepting who I am and hoping that I do not have too many faults to account for".
The year 2003 is a learing experience from the beginning.
I realized I know less now about life, love, and acceptance of others and myself.
That in reality everyday is a new day to learn more about yourself, life and the people sharing your journey.
For the days you do not want to face the world and all it's dimensions, is an experience missed and a day well wasted.
I have had many of days afraid to face the world.
However, I am the savior of the victim,
I am the captan of this ship,
I am the ruler of this precious continent,
I am the water that necessitates life.
Realizing that life is a game and it's always my move,
Helps me get up wipe away the tears,
Strip myself of insecurity, fear, and shame.
And remind myself that I am beautiful, you reading this are beautiful.
For life is an extraordinary blissful dementia.

Warmth from the sun
 The wishes and stars
 We were never ourselves
 Cheers for that

 Quiet young man
 Waits for a friend
 When it rains, Love
 Your hands shake
 Why is that?

 When the world starts to spin
 When you smile
 I'm in sight

 No time for us
 We were ourselves
 With the weight of the years
 You forgot

 When the world starts to spin
 When I'm in love
 You come to mind

~ Binky

They say for an artist to become famous 
He must express his darkest fear.
I say for an artist to become real 
She must express her darkest truth,
But somehow the truth just seems to get me in trouble. 

~  Marguerite Richards

Terminology quick to distruct the mind's eye
When trying to define
To make sense of the natural idiosyncracies
Those things we find complicated
Those things which are truly, simply 
Just simple. 

~  Marguerite Richards

I hike up my skirt just a little,
slip off my panties
and feel the soft warm leather against my skin

The power of flesh

The body is a temple 
and the mind is a mountain to climb

Live nude girls

You'll never know what it's like being a woman
Holding men in the palm of your hand
Your minions
Their woodies, or whatever you want to call them,
pressing hard against their pants

But as God as my witness,
In one year I will come back to this place
12:30 AM
I will become a live nude girl
A steaming bitch
A hot tamale

Live nude girls have the power

~ Binky

Enlightenment
~~~~~~~~~
I have seen the light, the internal light.
I have broken free of the chains that held me within.
I have and feel your presents.
I am not afraid of you,
But of myself,
For I am human.
Guide this being deeper into enlightenment.
Help me see what I have been so blind of.
Pull the wool from these eyes, so I can see,
Who I truly am.
my eyes and mind seek for more knowledge.
Knowledge of life, death and contentness.
I cry tears of happiness amazingly so.
My heart cries to remain happy,
So my being tears like rain from the almighty heaven.
Guide me, help me remain so.
