POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
In Old Age
Topee on my head,
to hide the fact I'm closer to being dead,
Once I was so young, happy, and strong, but I fear my health has faded,
It's like I'm becoming outdated,
People give me weird looks as pass,
I think I'm starting to grasp,
That I've become what I've feared most,
One of those old men with nothing to boast,
What have I done, who have I met,
What connections did I make,
Nothing I can think of can put my thoughts straight,
Because in the end I'm nothing to anyone,
To afraid to make connections,
I let the world slip,
And now sitting...

Bitch ass punks
From my hand comes melodies,
From my mouth comes life,
Speaking eternal truths from what I can deduce.
Do I know if I'm right or wrong,
Does anyone who sings life's song,
Were all just people,
So what's the trend,
Among people who feel too good to be our friends,
What did we ever do but try to be nice,
Yet you take every opportunity to take a slice,
To put me down,
But no never will I frown,
Because in reality there is no difference between me and you,
We are exactly the same to the last molecule,
Your a human too,
so why do you...

This is the End
The sun gave the earth life and is now taking it away should I be fearful? No,
Fear is only helpful when you can confront the problem,
Nothing can stop this,
Humanity is too late,
Too caught up in materials and social status to notice the obvious,
Maybe we will learn,
But I think nay,
Too long have we lived like this,
Rejecting nature,
Throwing off the balance that has for so long regulated the world,
It is everywhere look at the land scape,
Soon it will be desolate,
Nature is god yet we defy it why?
Do we seek to rise above,
To...

Life
Life goes by too fast,
There is nothing you can do to stop it,
It's hard to live knowing existence is a joke,
No matter how happy we live we will die,
No matter how many friends we have or how many lives we touch no one will remember your name,
No matter how hard you try,
You can't stop it,
An ever approaching doom,
Helplessness is the condition of any sentinel being,
Trapped under pressure,
Souls die before the body,
Smothered by the world in which we live,
There is no escape or relief,
No light at the end of the tunnel just life,...

The Stars
The Stars
The stars put my mind to ease,
The heavens not lying in a book but instead above us for all to see,
The blackness not representing evil or cause for alarm,
But rather simply the absents of light
Do demons lurk in the shadows?
Only the demons put into our heads by superstition and fantasy,
Everything at balance as though a purpose,Is there a god?
Does it matter for if there is or if there isn’t does it effect our lives?
People make choices demons reside among us but not as invisible apparitions but men of flesh and bone, ...

Ectasy
My mind is out of my hands
But why would I care,
The feeling that's come over me
Takes me and holds me so strongly,
Nothing could take me from this moment
Nothing could change the way I feel
No cares and no worries
Nothing to stress about,
Just feel,
Just feel,
The love the happiness the joy that has come
Nothing to worry my mind only fun,
The people around me instantly friends
Maybe I will never see them again,
But that doesn't worry me because this Is now
All my problems still exist but why would they bother me when I feel like...
