The Hill
I inhabit a house
It's said to be mine
Not too big not too small
I like it just fine
I have a garden
With mossy grass
Upon a rocky hill
Chimes Sunday mass
Up there on the rocks
Jesus in concrete
Says little child little child
I think that's neat
Tourists park to use
Drones and cameras
My kitchen window is big
I pose for them as
Little child little child
I know no one can see ...
It's said to be mine
Not too big not too small
I like it just fine
I have a garden
With mossy grass
Upon a rocky hill
Chimes Sunday mass
Up there on the rocks
Jesus in concrete
Says little child little child
I think that's neat
Tourists park to use
Drones and cameras
My kitchen window is big
I pose for them as
Little child little child

Fear
Be afraid
Be very afraid
Wake up afraid
Pass the day afraid
Go to sleep afraid
Live your life afraid
And Obey
Be very afraid
Wake up afraid
Pass the day afraid
Go to sleep afraid
Live your life afraid
And Obey

Devil
I want to know you
I want to control you
I want to show you
I want to de-soul you
I want to lay you
I want to use you
I want to betray you
I want to abuse you
I want to employ you
I want to advise you
I want to destroy you
I want to despise you
I want to excite you
I want to thrill you
I want to ignite you
I want to kill you
But
Angel bet me
You won't let me
I want to control you
I want to show you
I want to de-soul you
I want to lay you
I want to use you
I want to betray you
I want to abuse you
I want to employ you
I want to advise you
I want to destroy you
I want to despise you
I want to excite you
I want to thrill you
I want to ignite you
I want to kill you
But
Angel bet me
You won't let me

Tempting Void
I need to tell you something
Perhaps I possibly shouldn't
But really I must
And so
Here it is
You are pronounced
Not in an indicative
Casual or slight way
But justly
Eagerly
Epically
Pronounced
You see
It is imperative
The way you can be seen
Conjunctly
Unifyingly
Within certain parameters
Of your inner mind
Now
Listen up
Hear this
Attentions please
Wait for it
Here it comes
There it goes
The circular
Infinite nothing
It is what...
Perhaps I possibly shouldn't

Bubble
Picture this
You are inside a bubble
This is your safe space
It surrounds you and yours
The membrane housing it
Is thinner than thin can be
One trillionth of the thickness of the skin of a quark
You can stretch it from the inside
But nothing can penetrate it
Your bubble can withstand the force of untold multiverses
Crashing onto it's smallest parameter
At the velocity of a million light speeds
Without you even noticing it
Inside it produces your oxygen
Your heat
Your sustenance ...
You are inside a bubble
This is your safe space
It surrounds you and yours
The membrane housing it
Is thinner than thin can be

Your bubble can withstand the force of untold multiverses
Crashing onto it's smallest parameter

I Wrote A Poem
I wrote a poem with my head
It was confusing
I wrote a poem with my discontent
It was unsatisfying
I wrote a poem with my temper
It was intense
I wrote a poem with my direction
It was here and then there
I wrote a poem with my dreams
It was surreal
I wrote a poem with my smile
It was sincere
I wrote a poem with my ego
I can't find it
I wrote a poem with my inner child
It was goo goo ga ga
I wrote a poem with my cosmic body
It was out of this world
I...

Meaning
What good is living if you have no soul
What good is aspiring if you have no goal
How is a life worth living
If there is no kind of giving
Who are you to say you exist
If you are lost in the mist
What good is owning it all
If it leads you to a fall
Who are you to doubt your being
If you can't see your seeing
What good is knowing everything
When your step has no spring
Who are you to deny your fate
Before it becomes too late
What good is aspiring if you have no goal
How is a life worth living
If there is no kind of giving
Who are you to say you exist
If you are lost in the mist
What good is owning it all
If it leads you to a fall
Who are you to doubt your being
If you can't see your seeing
What good is knowing everything
When your step has no spring
Who are you to deny your fate
Before it becomes too late

You And I
Like a hammer without a nail
Like a sheriff without a jail
I came to you
Like a suitor without a bride
Like a slide without a ride
I envied you
As a wind without air
As a being without care
I was there
As a ear without sound
As a lost without found
I hung around
Into all within a mind
Into this within a find
Be kind
Into you within a I
Into us within a try
Be my
Like a sheriff without a jail
I came to you
Like a suitor without a bride
Like a slide without a ride
I envied you
As a wind without air
As a being without care
I was there
As a ear without sound
As a lost without found
I hung around
Into all within a mind
Into this within a find
Be kind
Into you within a I
Into us within a try
Be my

Contradiction
A woman reels in a man
Because she can
Loves his style is game
Old story often same
She wants him domesticated
Properly emasculated
What goes on in her head?
She wants her love dead?
No to eat her cake yet keep
And peacefully sleep
While he duly withers away
She will blame him some day
A victim of nature so cruel
In a perpetual duel
Good genes says strong child
Later they become too wild
Because she can
Loves his style is game
Old story often same
She wants him domesticated
Properly emasculated
What goes on in her head?
She wants her love dead?
No to eat her cake yet keep
And peacefully sleep
While he duly withers away
She will blame him some day
A victim of nature so cruel
In a perpetual duel
Good genes says strong child
Later they become too wild

Gates
I've got a headache with your name on it
You never ever seem to learn
The suffering heart you make a toy of it
Do you want the world to burn?
So you found a way to control the masses, big deal
As your strings were being yanked
Can't see through your black tinted glasses, I feel
Your whole philosophy has tanked
But you carry on as if all that matters
Is your money and ooh your power
Conceited jerk the world is in tatters
Your control it's waning by the hour
If we ever meet I will slap you silly
To...

Out In The Countryside
I want to find me a kitten I wanna to grab me a pup
I´m gonna raise em together that's how they´ll grow up
Good living out in the countryside
I'm gonna be a nice neighbor I'm gonna be so good
I'm gonna help with what's needed in the neighborhood
Clean living out in the countryside
I´m gonna fix up the yard there I´ll place the hot pot
I´ll soak there commando observing all that I've got
Fresh living out in the countryside
I'm gonna drive out my sorrows I´m gonna clean up my act
I´m gonna think of today and...
