POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Endless beach
There is a endless beach up north they say
I think I will find it today
There I will wind up today
When I get to it I'll know what to find
A girl that's singing a rhyme
She will know me I won't tell a lie
Her green eyes ashine with salt air
Her sweet words like the deep sea and blue sky
We will swim to the cave and find the pearl that rests beneath the shattered waves
That tells us not to shed a tear or cry wistfully for a gentle and tender goodbye
As I walk down the endless beach can the sand
Clean my toes as I hold the silver pearl and...

Her green eyes ashine with salt air
Her sweet words like the deep sea and blue sky
We will swim to the cave and find the pearl that rests beneath the shattered waves
That tells us not to shed a tear or cry wistfully for a gentle and tender goodbye

Shuffle on
Heavy fists that beat down
Mocking eyes that taunt and stare
Shuffle on
Keep your head down
Winter comes, wind blows, very cold
Street is bare, empty life, walk here and there
Hungry mouth and stinging hands that seek the warmth
People eat life drained of blood
Turn aside, don't let the flood wash you away
Shuffle on
Keep your head down
I want to testify to my own way
To fly by night to where you lay
Tell your story, I'll tell you mine
To live the life of come what may
I will carry on till I fall
I...

No God to thank
Sick and afraid
Takes his blood with a cool, sharp blade
Cheap hotel walls
Cross country he drank
Lonely and strange
Hating the red scarlet lush that cultivates the change
Twisted thrall
Memory blank
From scouring desert
He was a mummified worm that writhed into the present
Cold concrete floors
To riversides dank
The deed was done
The guilty murder of life for his half one
Haunted victims call ...

The tide
How long this lasted
He had no way of knowing
This flowing road, this pale tide
He could not hide
And like all these spirits with no abode
He must abide and flow with the tide
This lasted long, the tired march
the tide flowing on and on
Though gloom and dust
Moving with spirits severely defined
to guide and whispering to confide
A way to one's lost self in selfish decline
This pale road in a sea of sable
Thoroughfares flowing timeless
He walks still, not knowing that
repeating this rhyme he must abide ...

He walks still, not knowing that
repeating this rhyme he must abide ...

God has a billion eyes
God has a billion eyes
Has seen all your tears
Has heard all your cries
Across all the years
Behind all the lies
God has a billion eyes
Gives you free will
To which way you fly
Watches you still
If you fall or stay high
God has a billion eyes
That see all over time
They fill up the sky
Hidden thoughts they will find
hidden lusts that you sigh
God has a billion eyes
Has seen all the paths
Has seen where you lie
After all of your strife
Bids your soul a goodbye ...
Has seen all your tears
Has heard all your cries
Across all the years

God has a billion eyes

Watches you still
If you fall or stay high
God has a billion eyes
That see all over time
They fill up the sky
Hidden thoughts they will find
hidden lusts that you sigh
God has a billion eyes
Has seen all the paths
Has seen where you lie
After all of your strife
Bids your soul a goodbye ...

The world of Lockdown
Welcome to the world of Lockdown
No international travel, fuel is rationed
No globalization, only trade in one nation
Spy on thy neighbor, it's a type of control
Breed suspicion and force conformity to all
Only the elite and military jets in the air
No cars when they used to be everywhere
Check points, curfew, video surveillance
Following the official government stance
Global warming is real yet still was a "lie"
Extreme heat, storms and seas on the rise
World of Lockdown, religious segregation
Foreign beliefs deserve degradation ...
