Treading Water
Is one static
in ones life
with ones neck
just above
the water line
with a little
doggy paddling
to prove
to ones self
one is
progressing
with those worn out words
i'm learning
as you doggy paddle back
to the place
one started from
being proud
of ones achievement
that learning to swim
is to hard
in ones life
with ones neck
just above
the water line
with a little
doggy paddling
to prove
to ones self
one is
progressing
with those worn out words
i'm learning
as you doggy paddle back
to the place
one started from
being proud
of ones achievement
that learning to swim
is to hard

Untitled
nothing is guaranteed to work, nor last; "People" turn against you; this place isn't "fair"; this "place" is a lie; this "place" is rigged; an uphill death trap that makes you question life....

The Crazies
In a world of misleading ads
Deceptive terrorism plots
I just sit back and try to relax
Wrap my head around the thought
Of a knife in my back, too many mishaps
Blood-hungry men, crashed or missing planes
The ignorant complaints
The sick and faint of heart
Like a cancer torn apart from remarks
Of an explicit piece of art
There's a sickness within the human race
Like a virus spread throughout our veins
GMO's, antibiotics, EMF's and hormones
It's disgusting how people have become
Infected with s**t like spit from the Devils...

For Mira
It’s a funeral. It’s a loss. That’s why there are no words.
There’s nothing documented between
Aardvark
And
Zyzzyva
That can fill the void
Of you
In my life,
Nor frame
My utter
Devastation
Nothing
That will unwound you, but
The day is long and
Boring, so
I fucking dance,
Kick up my
Heels,
Amidst
The dim
Procession
I fuck stupid
I, stupid fuck
I, Exilis
I fuck things up
Hey,...

ONE MINUTE MAN
Fuck me
Is it me or my age
Now these days
Having sex
Lasting one minute
It's not very pretty
Fuck me
What's wrong with me
I'm in my late s 30 s
I work, read and exercise
Jog a few miles
Eating breakfast ,lunch and dinner
chewing & swallowing vitamins
Walk my dog
Stay out of trouble ...
Is it me or my age

What hurts more?
There is a song I listen to from time to time. Its hook line says "can you tell me what hurts more, is it remembering or forgetting?"
I've thought about that question a lot lately. I don't know who wrote the song, or what they were remembering and forgetting but I understand the complexity of the question.
The pain of remembering is sharp, deep, and sudden. Old wounds can fillet open with just one thought, and I am back in a battle that I'm not sure I'll survive. As one thought leads to another, the dam breaks, and I begin to drown in the blood of invisible injuries that...

Just so you know...
I do not react
well...
to rude commands...but
.. just so you know…
I have been known
to respond
to a polite request.

From a conversation with friends
Sometimes I close my eyes
and dream the world
is how it should be
But the knowledge
of my dreaming
always wakes me up
Reality
that cold cold beast
which values
only truth
breaks you down
to madness
and offers
no relief
How I long
to stay in dream land
the ignorance
I miss
wisdom is a fools pursuit
knowledge
the death of bliss
But now my eyes
are open
the light of day
shivers in
return to sleep
no more an option
and so...
and dream the world
is how it should be
But the knowledge
of my dreaming
always wakes me up
Reality
that cold cold beast
which values
only truth
breaks you down
to madness
and offers

How I long
to stay in dream land
the ignorance
I miss
wisdom is a fools pursuit
knowledge

But now my eyes
are open
the light of day
shivers in
return to sleep
no more an option
and so...
