Suffer Ape
Bipedal in a simulation world
The intelligence quotient curse
Evolution's fuck-up
Sapiens flings his shit across the lands
Simian god bides his time
Abstract deity sides us blind
Mother nature's free-for-all
Languish in this sandbox life
From nihilist depression agenda
To capital oppression visions
The New Earth destruction arranger
Conquest master survival
We colonizing slaver man
Suffer ape has upper hand
The intelligence quotient curse
Evolution's fuck-up
Sapiens flings his shit across the lands
Simian god bides his time
Abstract deity sides us blind
Mother nature's free-for-all
Languish in this sandbox life
From nihilist depression agenda
To capital oppression visions
The New Earth destruction arranger
Conquest master survival
We colonizing slaver man
Suffer ape has upper hand

if you want to find hell
you don't have
to look very far,
just step out-
side.

Connections
1. “Nothing can bring you peace but yourself.”
You have to search deep within,
It’s not something you find in a book,
It’s as if you’re able to reach Zen,
You just have to know where to look.
Peace is the hardest thing to obtain,
It’s a journey of mystery to explore,
But slowly you begin to understand,
The universe too is yours…
2. “We are immersed in beauty, but our eyes have no clear vision.”
Physically our eyes can deceive us,
Beauty sometimes on the outside lies
Spiritually it lies on the different...

Species unleashed (revised)
Crisis,
everyone hooked on devices
and vices,
mankind's not the wisest
or nicest
species unleashed to release
power of mind and soul
and when pressed we're not unstressed
and we all struggle
uniquely suffering..
still praise the ones who transcend
and props
to them for taking a chance
to make an enhancement,
learned to lean alone
against lunacy and loneliness
in which they've grown up in
and through,
though more dark days
are sure to take place as we grow
slowly getting old ..

You Are In Everything
You are in everything. The book is light, but showing the world you love is important
I was once again a child in the heart of nature, dying again in the wild spirit of a wolf that lives for hundreds of years. Your brain stays like a shadow
The shadows of humanity, also healthy. "Life is Power. Put others first"
Glass of glass. A million things ring out in themselves. I am, as you know. Learn, accumulate and lose nothing. Be also like the grass and dense with self

At the edge
We witness the world and inner realities
wither and fade away
little by little
day by day
becoming more and more grey..
Decided many times
to not let the drear
tear and eat away at the soul
leaving nothing but fear
and frustration
which morphs into numbness
but it always returns
to me with a vengeance
I'm left careless
still in that state of awareness
but spirit a little more diminished
almost finished I feel..
a little less real
everything seems
more and more
like some long dream
or...

Sunset Starburst Waves
Do your eyes burn tired
With an Antarctic stare
Slowly losing focus
Of all that's there
Are you experienced
Have you ever been experienced
Will you tell me about it
Whenever we get there
This dimming tunnel vision
Closing in on all sides
The barren moon plucked
From the somber skies
We can't blink or falter
There's too much at stake
Not enough that we can do
To appease fate
So keep your eyes open
No matter the cost
Don't look away
Or it's been all for naught
While the horizon ...

Null Set Degenerate
Seclusion ?
Some Say Forgone Conclusion , I Say Illusion , Delusion ,
Unproven Solution , Inner Devolution , Execution By Non Fusion
Live Not By A Mindset Inset With Regret Beset By Cold Sweat
Self Sacrificial Alphabet Intangible Asset Soul Whole Internal Net
Connect With Intent Full Respect Do Not Expect Strange Neglect

Upon my Throne
I, like you, do sit, when I poo. A man rehearsed in the art of cleansing with one hand, dominant. My practice never made perfect, with thanks to my daily variations, and unstructured consumption. What beauty, therein, lies.
What was yesterdays fuel becomes the morning's delivery. A ceremony of worship to the plentiful nutrients these sowed seeds supply. Forces within, toiling autonomously, charged by only their instinct to survive, destroy, transform, and create. Is it not the duty of life to fulfil it's destiny of prolonging what is deemed inevitable. For, it's conclusion:...

one year forward
the peal of
a bell
one time,
one hundred
times,
one thousand
times,
one hundred
thousand
times
the sound of ghost
walking through
fog
the slow, measured
steps of memory
treasures forever
buried
miracles
lost
the dead left
with no
song
only the
living
a silent hymn
of tears
cold ash in the
throat
a bell
one time,
one hundred
times,
one thousand
times,
one hundred
thousand
times
the sound of ghost
walking through
fog
the slow, measured
steps of memory
treasures forever
buried
miracles
lost

living
a silent hymn
