Shoreside
Feathers in the breeze
On the sea scene
The sea’s scene
By boardwalk painters seized
The sailors dream
Of warm breezes
and sunbeams
The future of tomorrow
Lies in the aspiration and
Visions of the plans
The fishermen see
Tides roll in
And out
Rain or sunshine
The seagulls wander over the shores
Peacefully
Squawking about
On the sea scene
The sea’s scene
By boardwalk painters seized
The sailors dream
Of warm breezes
and sunbeams
The future of tomorrow
Lies in the aspiration and
Visions of the plans
The fishermen see
Tides roll in
And out
Rain or sunshine
The seagulls wander over the shores
Peacefully
Squawking about

Run to Atonement
What's hewn in stone was removed and stolen,
the tombs of shoulders Azul in focus.
Once moons remold us exhumed in bones of,
some knew the moments confused below dust.
Luck looted ocean's sun hue as golden,
dusk drew a donor blood blue from ozone.
Of spoon and soldier runs wounds of closure,
cut through to open trust due as spoken.
Such roots are lonesome from Cupid's coldest,
unto enrollment some student showman.
Much full of hocus love fools betrothment,
comes duels of jokers spun lucid omen.

Blankets
No blankets now to hide beneath
No parents bed in which to creep
No songs being sung
No stories told
You're on your own
When you get old
It was scary being a child
Sometimes scarier as an adult.
No parents bed in which to creep
No songs being sung
No stories told
You're on your own
When you get old
It was scary being a child

Polarizing
only flying with one wing
means crashing to the ground
left with right's the only thing
that lets us fly around
recognizing we're all one
being on an ark
on a planet with the Sun
through both light and dark
anger, fear and greed destroy
benevolence and peace
for every girl and every boy
and every plant and beast
demonizing adversaries
makes us demons too
evolution in each varies
so do points-of-view
left with right's the only thing
that let's us fly around
flying only with one...

My love, you allure me back to the watery depth of your roaring sea

Astral Arcadia
Smoke and mirrors unbalance the truth of a detrimental soul
Cleansing of the intellect is the rebirth as the Sun is to the Rose
What fables can blind men speak
When questioning the presence of his purpose, yet dead minded to give hope in the deliverance of his speech
Trying to ignite the spark of conceivable notions when the heart is leaking and not at peace
His eyes cannot exalt beyond Mt. Zion peaks
Where is your Holy Oil for the lost wandering sheep
Give universal rest for the mental weariness and...

WEIRD CHAINS
They invent new lies with periodical distractions
repeat falsehood till truth turns doubtful
teach generations the ways of hating
the porn of discriminating, dividing, killing
the innocents that love their neighbors
value diversity, equality and peace
shunning the weird chains that lock the sun for roots to grow

Ordinary Everyday
ordinary everyday
awake and then asleep
to wake again but not to stay
subconsciously we keep
fantasizing tantalizing
carrots on a stick
motivatingly inspiring
like a candle's wick
whose quiet flame is just the same
as the inner light
shining through the sometimes pain
in both day and night -
breathing in and breathing out
awake, asleep, among
all the beings hereabout -
the children of the Sun
moving ever onwards
electrically embraced

Boooooom!!!!
Excitement is not joy,only agitation.
Joy is simple peace, no over stimulation.
Joy is simple peace, no over stimulation.

Reflections
No mirror can reveal you.
Mirrors are for the physical world.
And you are not.
Mirrors are for the physical world.
And you are not.
