Maybe Tomorrow
Fingers point towards incompetence
When someone has to tow the line
Without logic it doesn’t make sense
These parasites can’t grow a spine
Addicts gamble on sex and drugs
Whatever gets them through the night
Skin is crawling with corporate bugs
Keeping the real issues out of sight
Deathbed confessions eliminate lies
So everyone can connect the dots
Spider needs to catch a lot of flies
Weaving webs that tangle us in knots
Maybe tomorrow we wake up for real
With enough time left to finally heal
When someone has to tow the line
Without logic it doesn’t make sense
These parasites can’t grow a spine
Addicts gamble on sex and drugs
Whatever gets them through the night
Skin is crawling with corporate bugs
Keeping the real issues out of sight
Deathbed confessions eliminate lies
So everyone can connect the dots
Spider needs to catch a lot of flies
Weaving webs that tangle us in knots
Maybe tomorrow we wake up for real
With enough time left to finally heal

Your Place of Peace
When night falls
When your breath stills
When your last memory of me isn’t the shadow you see
The place I hold for you in my heart
Will still be waiting for you
When your breath stills
When your last memory of me isn’t the shadow you see
The place I hold for you in my heart
Will still be waiting for you

Lit Candle
I held a candle lit
For you to follow
You came close in fear of it
Scared to reveal what’s in the shadow
You ran to the light
Blew it out
Diminishing the spark
No one can see who you are
In the dark
You shed lonely tears
Not wanting to be held
Condemning all who want to hold you
Sending them to hell
Striking a match to light the wick
See all the tears shed behind it
The light that is held is an illusion you know
No one can be this good not even the white is...
For you to follow
You came close in fear of it
Scared to reveal what’s in the shadow

Not wanting to be held
Condemning all who want to hold you
Sending them to hell
Striking a match to light the wick
See all the tears shed behind it
The light that is held is an illusion you know
No one can be this good not even the white is...

FORGIVING UNFAITHFULNESS
IN
the ebb and flow
of life there are
bright days, dark days
and nights that seem eternal.
IN
the trials, challenges, and days
when the check comes
in the mail; we are continually
reminded that we are human
operating with freedom of choices,
and some choices aren't good.
I
know I overreacted when I discovered
your unfaithfulness--it's that human
side again. But there was, and is,
stronger than hurt in my heart and soul
and that is forgiveness; not because
you asked me,
BUT
because I deeply,...

unconditionaly
entertaining my fathomless wholly beguiling imagination
I just got back from picking the best stars in the cosmos
I got a ring from Saturn will she take it back
if I disappoint needless point, really
you can't buy love not mine anyway
selfish me asking the stars to leave
their beautiful heaven all colors aglow
it's been some time, grieving
it will take you away to other places
the gravity of the situation has me on shakey feet
denial of self or indulgence of a vast imagination
there are no confines or restrictions

Through this life
They elders say that through this one life, that you will have encounters that we may never truly understand. FOR each one will be different, than the one before it 🤔 For sure each one will have lessons, that we must learn to navigate through the next, chapter of our lives. FOR nothing in particular in life comes easy 🤨 as it will have challenges that could make you or break you, down to the point of just giving up to fight against the deepness, of that damage of the truth of your heart and spiritual soul.🙏 Your own health of your will being or it could be your mistake...

Forgive Me
For all things
I did say
Could say
Will probably say
Didn't mean to say
Said anyway
Will probably say again
Forgive me
Please
I did say
Could say
Will probably say
Didn't mean to say
Said anyway
Will probably say again
Forgive me
Please

Influence
You see this is why your friends wanted you back with them
A pile of coal surrounding a gem
I was ready to jump at your slightest whim
Now you're riding the bus looking for him
Your friends didn't like it, hated you being on the up
They conspired against you to fuck shit up
Claimed you were in chains and weren't being treated right
Claimed they saw me over there just last night
But when it came to love you know how you were treated
When it came to dinner, you were the first one seated
Cards and flowers were a constant...

What is it I'm hearing
The Adhan?
The word itself means "to listen"
Is it really dawn?
Unclear voices..
The roosters keep cloaking..
Cold wind blows..
Earlier that morning
02:00AM
Who's this fortune teller?
Who sings well when am dreaming at night?
Dreaming within...

Eat, Drink, and be Merry!
Your anger will unbalance you
Claimed all the wise men ever,
And your soul, with hell, misconstrue,
To think bitterness is clever.
That's evil's favorite recipe
For getting humans off their game
And is just as bogus as can be
To try and have me be the same.
It's levity that people love
And maintaining a happy mood
As if we were a hungry dove
Pecking apart a sack of food!
Our preference is for merriment
Provided no one will get hurt
Or witness their life savings spent
Chasing a floozy in a skirt,
But even that's a...

Indiscretions
Words are like crystals
of multifaceted rocks.
The words, secret come,
full of memories.
Insecure sail among us.
Since they are light and night.
Paraphernalia of meanings or
plethora of senses and nuances.
Vivid moments lost.
Panoply of possibilities.
In the language compendium
emerge as despots,
cruel, broken or mild,
helpless, innocent, light.
Who listens to them?
Who collects them
in their pure shells?
Evade among the foam,
Green, neutral and opalescent…
in joy they revive.
