1/21


2/21

beginning with now

in the beginning of now

all is as is

we are as free as the wind

we are grounded by self-pity

in the beginning of nowall is as is

we are as deep as the sea

we are drowned by delusion

in the beginning of now

all is as is

we are as distant as stars

we recluse to our minds


3/21

love and hate

love is that of bitter-sweet

pleasureful surface

gracefully deep

hate is that of a foolhardy-weep

powerful feeling

frivolous seep

love is that of a beautiful-hurt

florescent bloom

enlightened dirt

hate is that of quarreling-twins

identically lost

nobody wins

love is that of dreamful-bliss

passionate touch

impossible risk

hate is that of urgent-zilch

trifling matters

spoken filth


4/21

when i grow old

a sack of pus and blood and bones

a skull of vastness, thoughts, and mold

a heart of love that's grown so cold

is this my fate when i grow old?

a quiet home to wait my day

the day that i go on my waymy quiet home will then be sold


a mound of ash that once held life

is carried by my widowed wife

this is the saddest tale i've told



5/21

special

special you are

especially you

don't let this worldtell you who is who

you are who you are

you'll be who you'll be

you're special enough

especially for me


6/21

these three men

the angry man shouts hate aloud

the lonely man has been put down

the tired man is named the clown

excuses put them in the ground

the accused man is quick to blame

the guilty man he holds no shame

the judging man shall build his name

these three men are all the same

the quiet man is slow to speak

the patient man will take no peak

the upright man will turn his cheek

simplicity is theirs to keep


7/21

pangea

we have come much farther than history knew

yet we live in the past; change is past due

assembled dissections distant our lands

a line on a map; a gun in my hand

we have come much farther than history knewyet we live in the past; change is past due

these borders, these outlines must come to an end

united as one; unanimous friends


8/21

esoteric lovers

you administer your aching conclusion

that my mind is so fickle; runs off delusion

you have your theory tremendously wrong

i speak from my heart; it translates in song

you say nothing in life is ever quite certain

uncertainty leaves you with nothing i'm certain

trust me, believe me, or never let go

of all the ideas that keep pain afloat

i am so happy that i have you dear

the days are just moment; the minutes like years

this world will be ours if you can let go

esoteric lovers; we whole-heartedly roam


9/21

unanswered

who am i?

who are you?

what are we?

what to do?

what was then?what is now?

where is up?

where is down?

where am i?

where are you?

how to win?

how to lose?

how to live?

how to die?

am i wrong?

am i right?


10/21

modern-day weep

lost in the sequence of up-to-date thought

frustrated minds insufficiently taught

silencing thunder; digital light

comical plunder; chemical fight

subconscious motives driven by greed

to live is to die and to die we must bleed

sounds of madness; centuries deep

self-induced sadness; modern-day weep


11/21

love is free

if love is just love.

then guns are just guns.

trade ammunition.

fire with doves.

love mends the broken.

bringing on peace.

healing the nations.

let us be free.


12/21

education of a dreamer

hopelessness arose; there was nothing i could do

it crept in naturally as any moment would

the room began to rearrange the lights began to shake

my mind was half awake; this dream was my mistake

you told me of a child; a child to be born

i told you i would care for it; you told me no with scorn

the room began to rearrange the lights began to shake

my mind was half awake; a lesson i must take


13/21

unexpected

the unexpected wave

will wash us all away.

unexpected we will stand

in our self-proclaimed

quicksand.


14/21


15/21

tree

i see this tree

i see how he's dying

i beg him stop crying

he sheds all of his tears in fall

winter's kiss is near

i see this tree

a home for the smallest

this tree is a promise

even after winter death

life can be redeemed


16/21

someone

someone is here

someone is there

someone is far

someone is nearsomeone is lost

someone is found

someone is square

someone is round

someone is hot

someone is cold

someone is shy

someone is bold

someone is him

someone is she

someone is you

someone is me


17/21

subconscious subtleties

the sun falls yet again

yet again i fall asleep

these dreams consist of feeling

subconscious subtleties

for moments i'm alive right there

surrounded by fictitious cares

is this the realm where i belong?

where yes is no and right is wrong


18/21


19/21

ecstasy

a child's eyes gaze with no surprise

no concepts or views to scrutinize

ecstasy lost by discovering death

we learn that we die as we take our first breath

a middle-aged man will try to stay young

he lost half his youth yet he's only begun

ecstasy lost by self-evident tearswe learn how live once we lose half our years

a gray whiskered man acknowledges fate

the time it draws near yet he sets no date

ecstasy lost by regretting his days

he learns how to die as he sits and he waits

a spirit set free is entwined with the breeze

drifting with glee as it leaves behind grief

ecstasy found by shifting apart

we learn that it ends with the place that it starts


20/21

save me

meet me where the earth is rearranged

find me where this logic is not strange

tell me every thought that runs so deepsave me before i dare take this leap


21/21

my last desire

i'm sitting here on a dark cloud

shielded by the rain you catch only glimpse of the fire

it burns away all doubt

it boils the blood of all impurities

i am like a bird that has never learned to fly

your heart is a wishing well that grants this dream for flight

spreading my new found wings

i feel as of a peasant discovering he is king

as i let go of the hurt that i have carried for centuries

i discover a new clarity

i encompass a new hope

i renew myself of fire

your love is my sunlight

you are my last desire
