Finding My Way
I used to know exactly what I wanted...
Who I was
What I believed
What is right
What is wrong
I was confident and strong-willed
My world was black and white
Day and night
Everything was so clear
...not today
Today,
There is so much grey
The night blends with day
Can't seem to find my way
Or keep this uncertainty at bay.
What to do?
What to say?
What to feel?
...what is real?
Who I was
What I believed
What is right
What is wrong
I was confident and strong-willed
My world was black and white
Day and night
Everything was so clear
...not today
Today,
There is so much grey
The night blends with day
Can't seem to find my way
Or keep this uncertainty at bay.
What to do?
What to say?
What to feel?
...what is real?

FRAGEMENTS OF LOGIC
There are some things in this life that we will never truly understand for it will surpass, all logic of reasoning or understanding of an intellectual manner but for one to consume, ones mind with thoughts that seems to not have any one correct answer only more questions to ask.
But as the gateway of the unknown appears before your eyes...
But as the gateway of the unknown appears before your eyes...

are you listening?
no matter how

hiding inside us
no matter how
loud the thunder,
how sharp the

soul
no matter the
trumpets of
voices blasting
inside our head's
no matter our
wrongs, our
weaknesses ,
our fragility
at the end of
the day there
is only love
and redemption
let go
give time it's

Wait For Me (I'm Falling Behind! )
Wait for me,
Please.
O, wait for me,
You're dancing too fast----
so way out of line
Spinning like a top,
I'm falling behind!
Wait for me,
You're loving too quick----
an explosive mine
After the prey,
I'm falling behind!
You're living to swift----
no time to, " be "
so outta sight,
Please wait for me!
Not resting enough----
for or five hours a day?
Whatever is, it can wait;
sleep a while and stay.
You're working too much----
'say you can't spare...
Please.

Human Condition
Photographs depicting morbid and gut-wrenching visuals. People everywhere crying in fear, pain, grief.
By my shameful self absorption-
I am become fantastically blind..
Immersed in my own silly twiddle twaddle...
The evening newscast heralds the day’s mass shooting. Current European genocides. Latest mental/physical/sexual atrocities inflicted and the subjugation of one human by another.
I am become profoundly deaf.
Overwhelmed from voice, text, email messages by...

[2019] Four Hundred Eighty-Six
The nightmare he wakes up into daily
seemingly has no end
beyond headbeam's paltry insight
regarding future around the bend
in dreams darkly ahead so bright
Passengers are unruly -
yelling, screaming, stomping feet -
knees grinding into kidneys
from a hidden menace in backseat
thriving on perpetuating miseries
distracting him from thoughts of
being where he wants to be:
a fabled town known as
Tranquility
Not very often
but every so...

Swept Off into a Dream
She swore they’d always be friends,
Then again that’s how friendships end,
He couldn’t be more than what he wanted to be,
She had his heart and held the key,
But that’s what happens when one falls for another,
When the emotions run deep one discovers,
The stars weren’t aligned,
Now they’re left far behind
And the light that once gleamed,
Got swept off into a dream.
And so they went their separate ways,
Bonded by memories of golden days,
But the feeling feels like a nostalgic ember,
It’s fantastic just to remember, ...

Edge of the Asphalt Boundary
Beyond the chalked lines,
where four square balls
go to die
I pick dandelions that survive,
at the edge of the asphalt
boundary
Voices, calling all at once
A mixture a potpourri words
put into a bowl that stink
of stale mediocrity
Cracks from the rain make
patterns like the highways
of life
Tracing the familiar road,
has worn down the print
on my finger.
Drops of blood drip,
landing like tiny red stop
signs in my mind.
My boots unlaced at the top,
wipes out...
where four square balls
go to die
I pick dandelions that survive,
at the edge of the asphalt
boundary
Voices, calling all at once
A mixture a potpourri words
put into a bowl that stink
of stale mediocrity
Cracks from the rain make
patterns like the highways
of life
Tracing the familiar road,
has worn down the print
on my finger.
Drops of blood drip,
landing like tiny red stop
signs in my mind.
My boots unlaced at the top,
wipes out...

The E motions Of Time
i often wonder
where i'm going
am i a follower
a lead
or a paradox fool
somehow it doesn't matter
wherever i'll lay my soul
there shall be nothing
between the air and i
i’ve questioned my journey
more than its destination
time and me
a virtuoso orchestrating
my every move
and if only it would
measure my heartbeat
than the irreversible
chronometry of space
why do i choose
the road i know less
the unclear
why...

Darkness to light
Darkness Is all around me
I reach out but nothing's there
I try to look and see
But all I can do is say a prayer
The light shines out from a tiny place
Then it goes and you question why
You desperately try to find that light to chase
And when you can't you tell yourself a lie
What is the purpose of all of this
False hope I always fall for it
Expecting something nice but it becomes a miss
At this point I expect to lose and never get
You try to run away from your fear
But you are stuck you can't move
You...

You try to run away from your fear

Feeling Myself
What is there when your energy isn't positive or negative
When your universe doesn't recognize you and there is no take or give
Do you exist in limbo, trapped in the rift
Or do you join the multiverse and open doorways within it's midst
To have seen the things that I have, can boggle the mind
Totally destroying astrophysics, Einstein and the laws of Newton's design
The many worlds where humans aren't the supreme beings
You would be surprised by the peace that I've seen
Reptilians at peace with reptilians, but acknowledging all other species ...
When your universe doesn't recognize you and there is no take or give
Do you exist in limbo, trapped in the rift
Or do you join the multiverse and open doorways within it's midst
To have seen the things that I have, can boggle the mind
Totally destroying astrophysics, Einstein and the laws of Newton's design
The many worlds where humans aren't the supreme beings
You would be surprised by the peace that I've seen
Reptilians at peace with reptilians, but acknowledging all other species ...
