compromise
The purpose of human life is to serve, and to show compassion
and the will to help others.”—Albert Schweitzer
it is unwise
to compromise
the truth,
whether the time
be of your prime
or youth.
the ways of man,
whether by plan
or chance,
mark well from birth,
upon the earth,
his dance.
it is unkind
to wear a blind
passport
to shield the eye
from those who cry:
in short,
turn not aside
those who must ride
the storm;
reach out and bless
those who know less ...
and the will to help others.”—Albert Schweitzer

United In The Murky Depths Of Epiphany
The adventure is in your mind
The planet is crushed in the palm of my hand
When time tries to drown the dream
Inside your mind, just come with me
It's high time to turn the key
And leave here for eternity
When life turns a blind eye
I will help and make you see
It's high time to turn the key
And leave here for eternity
The planet is crushed in the palm of my hand
When time tries to drown the dream
Inside your mind, just come with me
It's high time to turn the key
And leave here for eternity
When life turns a blind eye
I will help and make you see
It's high time to turn the key
And leave here for eternity

Write me a love poem
I tease you
and you tease me back
I say - I love you
and you say - I hate you
giving me a mocking smile
you cry with your heart
but not with your soul
the sadness never lasting long
and always replaced by a devilish grin
.
sunlight streaming through my mind
casting multicolored light
as rainbows playing on the walls
looking into your eyes
I that find rainbows live there too
oh how I love
this endless romance
chasing the love hiding in your heart
I am a cat chasing a laser light
...

skyscraper
Skyscrapers are the ultimate symbol of human ambition,
rising above all obstacles.”—Anonymous
ambitions
drag me by the pulsing shoulder,
by rations
limited that make me bolder;
too soon i
find that failure is a raper
to ruin my
feet short of their high skyscraper.
the journey,
though an uphill climb forever,
shall earn me
all the fruit of my endeavour;
sharp bruises
shall my passions not diminish,
excuses
weary not what i must finish.
naysayers
vex my spirit with dissuasion, ...

If All Goes To Plan
If my life span's at least eighty-three years,
I've seven-thousand, nine-hundred and two
days to laugh, smile, sing, and shed tears
and as many rebirths
for with each Sunrise
a new life is given
a fresh privilege to prove
that I'm perfecting
this grand thing we call living.

Modalities
I've been having a hard time with Rod Jesus
(you have to call him by both names)
He's trouble by the minute.
Taking stuff from other students
Blurting out nonsense
Refusing to stay in his seat
Spilling Skittles all over the floor,
smashing them into the carpet with his heel.
By afternoon,
I sometimes lose it.
He's hyperactive
He's also bored
Two weeks into fifth grade,
he's reading below a first-grade level.
Worksheets
may as well be written in Hindi.

A Choice
What if you were given the choice of living
an alternate reality?
In a strange forest, a labyrinth of bark doors.
A life where your dreams are radiant diamonds seen.
Would problems crumble like twigs upon the forest floor?
Or does always exist a veil of unimagined terror's sheen.
A false peace.
Some memories refuse to easily fade, would thoughts
from the life you abandoned, permissionless, invade.
You will exist extremely haunted by
your unfulfilled deeds and unplanted seeds.
Make the life you already have hold meaning. ...

Where I call home
girl me and you
kinda remind me
Of johnny and June
All the years
so many smiles,
we've had our share of tears .
oh how we burned up
the miles,
A whole lot of glad,
a handful of sad,
Many memories
We've had
with each other
I swear Ill never have another
Ill Ever again call my lover,
It's where I'll run to
when my crazy world
Comes unglued,
When life's got me
feeling so dam small
I can't bear
the weight of it all,
Your love is
my heart's telephone,
I'll dial you...

Colors
There's anxious colors waiting patiently
To be released unsuspectingly
In the dreams there haunting me
I'll make the world like it's suppose to be
Colors, streaming from my mind
Colors, no ordinary kind
The dreams are running to my pocket
The blue returning to the sky
Now what is this that has overcome me
Creating colors for my eye
Anxious colors please be good to me
Don't make me live my life tearfully
Head strong and color my frustration
i need to rise with a new illation
Colors, bright blinding eyes ...

THE FAST APPROACHING BORDERS OF THIN ICE INSANITIES (5-31-1992; in a Sonora Texas roadside Motel)
my only hope here
presently
is to keep on moving
ever further away
from these fragile
increasingly eroding
threadbare
decaying borders
of such fast approaching
proximal
thin ice insanities
where i have
for so very long now
only been struggling
courageously fighting
in intermittent
recurrent cycles
of both successes
and futility alike
to simply
yet desperately
at times
just survive
and stay alive
more than i have
been able to
more fully live
my life
my one...
