As I sit Listening to Bob Marley

I wonder where my lighter is

And ignore the dirty dishes for now

Laughing at the train bombing video where an artist stops painting…

Dumbfounded at god knows what

I’m kind of cold right now

My landlord shut off my heat to save money

Now he’s paying for my oven to be on for half the day

My album of choice is Exodus

Due to that particular song I read that chapter of the Bible

Just to see where he’s coming from

Just for Bob.

 

Goodnightnina

She told me good night. “I love you”.

Closing my eyes I ask the universe to take me away

The day is long and I’d like to go now

Wrapping myself in my clouds

Imagining where I am going

Because every time I go to rest; closing my eyes

I am always sent to a new world

Where my father can walk again and I go cliff diving with him

Or I can paint trains in the serene darkness

The world is mapped out; familiar but not so familiar

Subconscious playgrounds

They are so dark and ominous

Or bright.

Luminous.

Light.

Trans Pride: A Higher Cause (Poetry) – Nina

I am…

The Type of writer who lites fires with typewriters.

Trans pride; n its a quite higher:

cause.

Despite my minor flaws I write because.

I’m…

Inspired by role models and not cold bottles.

No more sorrow.

I’m trans and…

Trans transgender pride; my gender why?

In splendor I; am utterly myself.

Selfishly no; selfless by being oneself with.

All that I can and possibly will.

If I didn’t; I’d probably be ill.

Although it really needs no commentary.

On the contrary I still see a bigots daily

I’m doing fine but I can imagine somewhere out there…

Someone is terrified of being themselves

I see this clearly.

Now a common occurring; non obscuring event.

I present myself to the world plus my 2 cents.

Have a conscience; discriminatory nonsense.

Happiness lays around the corner for many.

Plenty if we; could set an example and

Simply be free.

My name is Nina; the transgender psycho blogger.

Climbed out of bed and to the coffee

Op-tea-mystic,

World at my fingertips and I worry  bout no shit.

In this moment,

Judgements or backfires are simply a sign of my attempting progress

Attempt unleash repressed

Memories;

I’m Psycho yes; you could ask anyone that knows me personally

I can indulge you if you like,

Why certainly…

Kernelled Remains — Mind to Unbind

Eyes glued to screens. Fingers fastened to keys. Characters are not novel, just 140 long. Nightly news! Death’s script flung from monotone lips. The hour skit a regurgitation of third world shit. First world filter cleans so we can swallow. Popcorn that is… Crunch! Buttered morsels dissolve. Fingers greased with privilege. Eat, tweet, repeat. Screens smeared […]

Nina Shade ( Nina Yin) Goodnightnina – Dreams / Every Night (Slam poetry over J Dilla)

Lyrics:

Dreams….

I dream every night. It’s like I don’t sleep; I’m far to busy venturing down rivers and streams, painting infinite trains.

My dreams are what dreams are made of. My mind is the money so the vacation is paid up.

Tropical paradises on every turn. Gorgeous baby blue pools with pearls twirling my world.

I can fly if I want to, take off  better than Peter pan. But the tricky part is always the land.

My dreams got music so I wake up singing love. Lyrics that no conscious mind could think of or use it

My dreams have more amusing amusement parks than Cali and Dubai put together. Damn my subconcious got its shit together.

Nightmares worst than Steven kings, but I’ve been a horror flick since I was a kid.

But this is real time 3d and if it’s too deep I wake up n have some tea.

I dream every night; its deep.

Every.

Single.

Night.

I get lost in pitch black Like I’m Trippin on LSD

Painting pictures I can never “see” , clearer than glass to my mind when it computes it.

But my minds far more complex. More convex it sees more than I can comprehend.

How many times I saw the end or woke up to a new beginning, open my eyes and the rooms spinning,

Damn I’m dizzy that was trippy.

What were those lyrics I heard angels signings?

I turn the light on.

I got the light, write before it’s gone.

Pick up a pen and write down this midnight song.

-Nina

We are governed; fact or fiction? – Nina

We are governed by the laws of physics

is it…

fact or fiction

to be trapped

or

to believe in supernatural

actual

happenings.

We use a small portion

of our mind

or activation

psychedelics sublime

become animated.

Strange places I’ve been

and I wonder

if my eyes

mind

soul

defy me;

defying the governing laws

“laws”

the laws of the universe.
