Divulge the Dam
Coercion laws of speech reign the land. For the earth we once knew was fading though, a nice dream. That when awaking one quite can't remember & slipping swifty between time & space, interval that separates. Wanting to grasp & hold tightly to this life preserver to safe your soul of being. A buoyancy riding in the waves of moving tides, waving a final goodbyes. Knowing you must due your sentence of time, filling the void of a darken hole, karma laws of past lives submerge requesting the balance of hidden meaning. To remember is to painful, and it took such mind bending practice to...

the soul
AI and the souls
Does a human baby have a soul
if so, dogs and giraffes also must have a soul
inside their being, like a third force
pulling strings. if ever so gently
If we accept an abstraction, like the soul
exists, it must include all living identities
a soul might be a reserve of experiences
gathered over the years make it possible
to know when we are trespassing
I think if AI becomes sophisticated
the question will arise
This, of course, is an important theme
as we tend to associate soul with faith ...

The End Of The Beginning, Beginning To End
I bled on
Armegeddon
As my mind
And body
Was blown apart
A nuclear warhead
Landed in my garden
This was both the end
And the start......

We Hope You Enjoyed The Show
The night comes down and starlight rises high into the sky.
Shining down upon the world with brilliant loving eyes.
So millions of years have passed and still they shine alone.
But somewhere behind those eyes the heart has turned to stone.
You little creatures squirming on my floor.
Crawling, climbing up towards my door.
You don’t know what’s good for you.
And you never will.
No more will I bide my time.
Receive the master’s will.
For the crimes you’ve committed, atrocities you’ve dreamed.
I will peel back the heavens...
Shining down upon the world with brilliant loving eyes.
So millions of years have passed and still they shine alone.
But somewhere behind those eyes the heart has turned to stone.
You little creatures squirming on my floor.
Crawling, climbing up towards my door.
You don’t know what’s good for you.
And you never will.
No more will I bide my time.
Receive the master’s will.
For the crimes you’ve committed, atrocities you’ve dreamed.
I will peel back the heavens...

we who loved America
We who loved America (second part)
I enjoyed America and remember touring
a Sunday outside Houston (Texas), met in a café
a group of openly armed, elderly men
they were courteous people one could meet
I understood guns have cultural meaning
in America, we in Europe don't understand
I remember a saying, "A country where the populace
is armed, people are polite."
I stayed on the ship longer than needed but had
to go home and get educated, I studied management
and later ran a restaurant

Twice Removed
While stumbling through the multiverse
geography remains the same
Each story line's a little off
with no return from whence we came
There's 2 of us to contend with
if your aim is to slow me down
We're planning an expedition
which involves walking into town
What started off in solitude
quickly snowballed into more
Each dimension is a puzzle
a little harder than before
We're both refugees of some sort
merely looking JUST to homestead
Often we engage in BATTLE
and end up on the run instead
Infinite...

the last viking
The Last Viking
There had been a storm, that uprooted
an old oak that exposed a gave
the grave of the last Viking, a rusty
sword beside him its grip was made
fallen stars, he had been a chieftain
When everybody had gone home for tea
the Viking checked his body
he was a skeleton and nude about it
In a workman's hut, he found
an overall and boots
The last one to say him was outside
a lingerie shop was an elderly lady
she thought he was trying to masturbate
who can blame him after being dead
for 500 years, he...

Watch the World Burn
The sky ripped asunder.
Crimson hued clouds fed with
the blood of dying angels.
A kaleidoscopic view of broken
wings and shattered dreams.
Sunlight eclipsed by the robes of death.
Metronome swings of the scythe
set the pace of destruction, ripping
souls to shreds.
A sign of the times lies broken
upon the feet of martyrs.
Drunk on their tears Apollyon
smiles. Acidic discontent leaking
from the corners of his mouth.
The devil’s tongue slithers
through the garden. Licking lies
across virgin...

Herd In Demise
I
In final realms we carry on
and in so going hear a song,
undefeated in a slow refrain,
unretreating with none to blame.
Darting eyes still seek relief
behind a guise where few retreat;
onward stagger heavy feet
if I am to lie this won't repeat.
Health betrays revealing bones,
a framework once so stealthily grown:
I am not what I appear,
under this mask I still know fear.
II
Pressing on we know not pause,
to hell have gone our former laws

Shoot Out, At The Not O.K. Coral
I understand
That all the worlds leaders
Want to control
Or kill
Each other
Fine!
Just don't involve
The eight billion citizens
That inhabit this planet
Instead of spending
Billions, upon billions
On weapons of war
And destruction
How about saving
This beautiful planet
Instead of destroying it
Wtf! wtf! wtf!
Wtf! wtf! wtf!
Ad infinitum
How come the whole destiny
Of planet Earth
Is in the hands
Of such a bunch
Of mindless fuckers!
Who seem to have no concept
Of what is...
