POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
it is seeds that i try to sow within the words that i write
The hill
Just on the outskirts
of what you believe
hovers a promise
that all you conceive
and all that you breath
all that you feel
and all that you touch
all that you see
while your looking
down at your knees
trying to climb
what will never be
while watching the screen
of apathy
of what you believe
hovers a promise
that all you conceive
and all that you breath
all that you feel
and all that you touch
all that you see
while your looking
down at your knees
trying to climb
what will never be
while watching the screen
of apathy

Reflections
The only friend you had
you left
hanging
on the wall
in your bathroom
every Promise
You made
You broke
Sincere apologies
you give
every day
to the eyes
that you see
that silently screams
please
I'm begging you
we have to leave
the shadows
that grow
from within
me
you left
hanging
on the wall
in your bathroom
every Promise
You made
You broke
Sincere apologies
you give
every day
to the eyes
that you see
that silently screams
please
I'm begging you
we have to leave
the shadows
that grow
from within
me

Doesn't fit in
The light of knowledge
will always
bring pain
when you look within
the memories
that it contains
All your thoughts
on what you think
All your intent
that never lived
All held together
by a thin skin
of I'm convinced
that all my beliefs
is all that there is
when I look at the facts
that refuse to fit in
with all the things
That I Think
Within
will always
bring pain
when you look within
the memories
that it contains
All your thoughts
on what you think
All your intent
that never lived
All held together
by a thin skin
of I'm convinced
that all my beliefs
is all that there is
when I look at the facts
that refuse to fit in
with all the things
That I Think
Within

Not Allowed
Does it
really matter
what you believe
when deep down
inside
you know the bottom line
you don't know
anything
until
you are allowed
to be Free
to Think

Language
When your thoughts
have become
susceptible
and your logic
has become
corruptible
then the language
of reason and commonsense
you cannot speak

Ancestors
You will never find
your roots
in the color
of your skin
or the place
where your forefathers
were born
you will only find
your roots
Deep within
a place
where your Ancestors
Never feared
to Tread
Could you
your roots
in the color
of your skin
or the place
where your forefathers
were born
you will only find
your roots
Deep within
a place
where your Ancestors
Never feared
to Tread
Could you

Hard to Define
I cry
when I feel you
within the forest
of my mind
I try
but I find
it hard
to define
why
I'm in love
with the shape
of your mind
when I feel you
within the forest
of my mind
I try
but I find
it hard
to define
why
I'm in love
with the shape
of your mind

Energy field
Will we ever
meet again
don't know where
don't know when
when our body's
have decayed
in some
dreary
shabby grave
Will we ever
see our friends
see their light
when they smile
within this field
that we
Used to deny
But now
that we're dead
we can see
there's no end
to what
we could of done
When we we're alive
meet again
don't know where
don't know when
when our body's
have decayed
in some
dreary
shabby grave
Will we ever
see our friends
see their light
when they smile
within this field
that we
Used to deny
But now
that we're dead
we can see
there's no end
to what
we could of done
When we we're alive

Surrounded
To go outside
while still aware
to go beyond
what you think
is there
you must travel the path
deep inside
your present form
while looking
where you tread
on your
personal path
of regret
for not doing
all this
before
the system
Surrounded you
with Walls
while still aware
to go beyond
what you think
is there
you must travel the path
deep inside
your present form
while looking
where you tread
on your
personal path
of regret
for not doing
all this
before
the system
Surrounded you
with Walls

Baggage
Is it systematic
the reaction
in your attic
where you keep
your excess baggage
in play
where your
commonsense
emotions
are slaves
to the whims
of the baggage
That you claim
the reaction
in your attic
where you keep
your excess baggage
in play

Self
Is it not a shame
that the plastic hand
of the selfy age
is now in play
where photos
of your self
are needed
to keep the memory
from bleeding
Away
It is the photos
that are needed
to keep away the blindness
that is now
fast becoming
Every day
where we are losing
our ability
to keep our
self identity
a selfy
State of mind
that the plastic hand
of the selfy age
is now in play
where photos
of your self
are needed
to keep the memory
from bleeding
Away
It is the photos
that are needed
to keep away the blindness
that is now
fast becoming
Every day

our ability

self identity
