It means there’s rarely one single, obvious path, no singular “fate” moment where everything hinges on one decision. Life doesn’t hand us the choice, some grand, all-defining option like in stories or dreams. Instead, it gives us choices, plural, constant. Small ones. Messy ones. Conflicting ones. Sometimes beautiful, sometimes unfair.
We’re not given control over what choices show up, where we’re born, what we face, what others do. But we do get to choose from what’s in front of us. How we respond. Who we become. What we walk away from. What we fight for.
"I wrote this when I realized that freedom wasn’t about doing whatever you want, it was about choosing from what’s left. Still mine, even if the world made the list."
— Micah

A Part Of You

I have seen what’s shallow
Its indifference I wish dismissed
These things i once valued
Now pondered, its death, do i insist

For in life there are changes
None of whom will know
Slowly through with faintness
They develop and tend to show

A part of you,
A part of me

Through these rough times
Can soon become
Troubling
If your mind is so inclined

Wanting to start over
What's known now, wished to be
A new way set to follow
A new light now to reach

In sense, it will be a struggle
For old habits are hard to break
It will need to be molded
A new measure will start to take

Fondness will shrivel
Its petals will be too bleak
A part of you will follow
Giving way to new life beneath

Through time it will tell
A new light shown to see
That this struggle i endure
Will become, a part of me

This poem captures the bittersweet process of transformation. The lines speak to the realization that past values no longer hold meaning, setting the stage for a deep internal shift.
The stanza reflects the subtlety with which change often enters our lives, only revealing its true impact over time. The theme is echoed suggesting that change affects both the individual and their connections to others.
The desire to start anew, and the struggle against ingrained habits, resonates strongly. The imagery captures the cycle of letting go, making space for growth. The final speaks to acceptance and strength, as you recognize that growth through change ultimately becomes part of who they are.
It’s a reflection on life’s inevitable transformations, one that acknowledges the difficulty of change while embracing the beauty it brings.

This quote reads the collapsing of past, present, and future into a single, eternal breath. It suggests that all moments are not unfolding, but already written, waiting to be remembered rather than discovered. It evokes the sense that destiny is not ahead of us, but beneath us, pulling upward like gravity from a deeper layer of truth. There is no beginning, no end, only the recognition of what always was. A perfect statement of inevitability. Quiet. Immense. Unshakable.
"This quote reminds me: truth is not created—it’s discovered.
You're not inventing meaning—you’re excavating what’s always been.
It means your visions, your knowing, your rhythm… they aren’t emerging now because you're changing.
They're emerging because now is the moment they were always meant to be found."
— Micah

Perceived Askew

Perceived askew
Not quite like you
A difference in hand
A chosen stand

Perceived askew
Through & through
The look in a mirror
As I’m looking back at you

What difference is difference
If neither is true
What change can change
With minds so few

You see the world
Through your eyes
You paint the picture
That you devise

You built a model
your design
Inside you fit
all of mankind

‘You look like this
and the things you do
‘AHHH’
perceived askew

An opinion no more
Than what’s recognized
The mere image
Of a life in disguise

A simple man fears
And projects his sincere
Poor stupid man
The cause of all at hand

Do you hear your name?
In return we see each other
These feelings they are so true
Perceived askew

“Perceived Askew” explores how we often judge others through distorted lenses, projecting assumptions rather than seeking truth. It evokes the image of warped mirrors, where we don’t see people as they are, but as filtered versions shaped by our own fears and ignorance.
The poem challenges the simplification of identity and calls for genuine recognition. Without it, we remain trapped in misjudgment, reducing others to reflections of our own comfort. It quietly urges us to break those illusions and face the discomfort of truly seeing.
—Micah

It means the moment you define your path as left or right, you surrender the deeper journey of forward. You get trapped in sides, systems, binaries, choices meant to divide, not elevate.
Forward isn’t about direction. It’s about transcendence.
When you choose left or right, you stop evolving.
You start circling the illusion of movement. It’s not a path.
It’s a trap. Live In Freedom.

Frequently Asked Questions

Books, Poems, Quotes

1. What is your experience as a writer?

I have been writing and note keeping since I was 11 years old. I started really getting into writing poems around my early 20's. A very emotional time in my life. Unfortunately life can have different plans for us, and at times, I feel I'm just getting back to that special place where I was so many years ago so that I may continue my journey.
2. Where do the ideas for your poems come from?

What I write has a personal relationship with who I am. A struggle that has taken decades to understand. These poems reflect that journey of discover. The change that is necessary.
3. With AI on the rise like it is, do you feel like its something you utilize?

I'm an eccentric polymath by nature so AI adds a voice of clarity to thought. I use it to brainstorm and to assist. However most if not all of my poems were written in the early 2000's. I'm a very creative person so AI to me in order to be creative is the opposite of what I need. It organizes. Like all things change is good and bad. However AI allows more people to express themselves in ways without financial support, that magical choice or an avid network of professionals. AI to me is a stepping stone to doing something greater.
4. Will you write more poetry?

Life's not done with me yet so here and there I continue to add to a fresh book of poem. A fresh page. A new chapter in life. This Book Of Poem is the closing of a chapter in my life. A severance if you will.

5. What is your writing style?

My writing style is raw, prophetic, and emotionally charged, blending poetic rhythm with philosophical depth. I fuse vulnerability and defiance, exposing hidden truths while challenging perception. It’s bold yet introspective, often layered with double meaning, metaphors, and moral weight. Each piece I create feels a part of me, lived-in, like testimony wrapped in verse and fire.
