Prelude: the soulmate
i’m your cure,
medicine you need,
a spice of love,
i am that seed,
i’ll love you pure,
deep to the core,
massage your heart,
kiss where it’s sore,
relax your thoughts,
and cry no more,
in an oceans
of tears,
i am your shore.

… crossroads: respect
hold the door open
not just for a friend,
charge like a boar
to be the first in..
hold hands tightly
to show where you
stand,
view of affection
not in the partner’s
plan..
pardon me
works any given day,
...

… guide in the mirror
which pride is your guide,
or that feeling you belong,
does your pride reside
in humanity’s zone,
are you sharing,
caring, nice and kind,
or eaten bare
like a melon rined
is love and peace
a spiritual tone,
or spite everyone
and be left alone,
which do hang
your proud hat on..
a guild that
is not really you,
dis-information is
contagious as the flu,
if you actually sat,
read a book or two, ...

… jason hawk (red tail)
red-tail gliding low,
lands on a wire,
cue the screeching,
from the bluejay choir,
cardinals and sparrows
screech chirp and peep
hawk on the wire,
starts cleaning its beak,
the chipmunks scurry,
gettin buried in deep,
squirrels jet thur the grass,
jump into a tree..
crow is in the sky
hawk springs on its trail,
then sparrows dart out
like breaking out of jail,
there’s no more squawkings
gone is the red tail,
now..
all the small...

.. raise your glass
here i stand
in front of thee,
on a world stage
for all to see,
time for some words
beautiful and humanly,
i denounce all killing,
and weaponry,
i propose a
brand new loveosophy,
please raise your glass,
and vow with me,
to share with those,
who live less fortunately,
to save the orphans,
and care for the elderly,
to cherish the planet,
its air land and the seas,
lay down your hate,
and be anger...

.. i indoxadreamed @ 2:15 (am)
a solitary man,
with a very strong stand,
three lens of a singular view,
then one night
from a bar stool sight,
standing in front
of your crew,
hard to believe
or even conceive,
that i deserve someone
as beautiful as you,
i dreamed
that i dreamed,
i fell in love,
wishing this dream was true,
we’d talk of marriage,
and a baby carriage,
all of the things we would do,
i dreamed
that i dreamed,
i fell in love,
a dream of life a new,
...

… amends
bottle to the holic,
needle to the addict,
skeletons in the closet,
memories in the attic,
started recreational,
simple innocent fun,
taking all bets,
first and the last one,
what happened next,
can never be undone,
no esteem
to mount a flex,
no place
on earth to run,
impossible weight of regrets,
mashing you down like a ton..
heart overstretched
like a rubber-band,
all that is left
are two open hands,
a sober lady

.. a calming word
gives you that look
they call the stink eye,
you know what that means,
you’d better not try,
used to warn me,
where not to roam,
“you’ll be 6 feet under
in a sea full of stones!”,
“sit your ass down
and hush up!” she’d say,
and “eat all that broccoli”
or you’ll pay the old way,
smiling like a crook
getting tucked into bed,
a pat on the cheek,
and a kiss on your head :-)
first thing you shout
when you enter your home,
you...

.. terrestrial abuse
in earth’s existence,
where it’s not
life resistant,
a cosmos wink of an eye,
just a flash in the pan,
the “big time of man”,
in a millennium
do we try or do we die
carbons in the air,
fracking the ground,
drink and breath
if you dare,
the people hypnotized,
by political lies,
all looking around
with blank stares,
oceans choked with plastic,
forest abuse gone drastic,
as sea and wildlife
shamelessly die,
environmentally weakened,
domestically...

… the wal-tucky
was as at the Wal-tucky..
“that’s right” i’m that lucky,
sometimes i go
where the wildlings run free,
end of the grind,
standing in line,
eyes still burning
from madding scenes,
when a sadness,
not the usual kind,
unfolded right
in front of me,
🎵 “show me da money”,
“don’t care if it’s funny”
“don’t care if it’s muddy”
“i’m hoping that it’s bloody”.. 🎶
looking down
i saw right at my knee,
a babe about four
possibly three,
spouting thug life ...

.. cottonmouth
to find some solutions
and cut out the doubts,
research to be
smarter than the problems,
take the cotton from your ears
stick it in your mouth,
you may hear
the answers to solve them.

… ticket to frown town
those who think
with a one track,
like a train on a line..
forward to back
a familiar act,
been there a thousand times,
worn out rails
and ties are cracked,
crash and burn anytime,
old scenery
devoid of fact,
fake tickets for rundown minds,
just passengers
with heads in a sack,
to towns for the intellectually blind.
