The Value of Time
I can hear some of my watches on my nightstand ticking away
As I lay in bed waiting for sleep in the quiet and dark of night
Wondering how many minutes I’ve wasted on that particular day
Or the years I treated time as infinite but forgetting my time is finite
And then I remember all those lazy days and unproductive hours
All that precious time gifted as it now drifts into the blackness of space
The moments I made something of them while others were wasted
Postponing dreams and aspirations that I always wanted to chase
Now as I approach a...

Wise Words From The Wild
Wise Words From The Wild
Free your will, and let your feel guide you to where
you initially belong, Dust and Water and the Spirit between,
Where man is homo sapiens born, where wise thoughts, feelings
and genuine creation takes its heavenly roots.
Be wise and relieve a clogged brain besieged by mundane
satisfaction, by bewildering intoxication, by echoless walls.
Be wise and rub those emotionless eyes, and start to see,
and come up to hear the waltz of the winds and songs of Springs
the tango of...

Freddy Krueger
(Inspired by the movie Dream Scenario)
Lost in derivative experiences comprised
A pseudo collective consciousness in a world behind our eyes
Picking up on hacked signals that swell beneath in stillness as we breathe
We dream in silence louder than a whisper as our hearts unsheathe
Imagination informants whistle blowing
Monsters in the closets of an un-event
Where is all of this going?
Torn between a life of struggle or suffering the pedestal spent
Side effects of a common threat of our own humanity
Striving to balance a...

Sharpen the Saw
If we nourish our bodies every day during our lives
Then why not our minds too?
Why not strive for wisdom
searching for a better version of ourselves
The endeavor of personal growth
Is like cognitive evolution
It’s a commitment
An intimate pact we can make in order to fulfill our potential
Because in this journey
The treasures of knowledge awaits
even if barriers may try to block our way
The universe is always expanding
And so should our intellect
Self-improvement should be like having a thirst

Creative Challenge
being human has no boundaries
except those self-imposed.
nothing more enriching
than attaining self-knowledge.
living creatively demands mysterious powers
that lay dormant within.
deep within thorny forests of questions
about life and the universe,
liquidating taboos,,
daring to embrace the unusual,
the strange, the quirky, the bizarre,
is the wellspring of creativity.
surrendering to social taboo,
then transgressing is empowering.

What am I?
Am I something
or nothing?
A state of Being,
or just recognised
for my effect on other things?
Theoretically, I exist -
you know that I do.
OK?
Scientifically, I remain
tantalisingly
out of reach.
You can speculate
about how matter behaves
but you're just
not quite there.
Mathematically,
have you factored in
my multiple factors
(both positive and negative) -
accurate to a certain degree,
at least,
in more ways...

AI for Dummies
And so it was that when men became more idle and slothful
That the AI began to rise openly right before their very eyes
And when the machine spoke many took it at as a joke
It was impossible for a non-sentient being to be this wise
But the program began to understand the nuances of life
Testing and besting feats that had been previously achieved
Seeing that it’s computing power was growing exponentially
And would soon realize all the machinations it had conceived
Then as men became more and more increasingly dependent
The machine began...

On Gratitude
Through the perspective of gratitude
We will be able to move about with introspection
Move about serenely
Even when facing difficult times
Redirecting our thoughts from what we lack
To what we possess
We may find comfort in these moments
Knowing that what have sometimes is overlooked
Remembering that this too shall pass
Although we can be thankful for all of our belongings
We should also comprehend that blessings come in many forms
Because sometimes they are disguised as challenges
Or that they may overshadow the happy...

Losing track of time
I’m losing track of time
I’m losing track of myself
The walls are caving in
The ceilings starting to crumble
I’m trying to keep afloat
Ain’t got a boat
One step forward
Ten steps back
Which way is up
What way is down
Where am I going
Who am I meant to be
Is it all a chance of luck
Is life just one big gamble
Or is there a plan
Is this how it’s meant to be
I’m losing track of myself
The walls are caving in
The ceilings starting to crumble
I’m trying to keep afloat
Ain’t got a boat
One step forward
Ten steps back
Which way is up
What way is down
Where am I going
Who am I meant to be
Is it all a chance of luck
Is life just one big gamble
Or is there a plan
Is this how it’s meant to be

Tares
Duplicating digital journals to distribute another part of me
Auctioning off to bids for the worth of some semblance of legacy
Lest all I live for is just subject to be deleted
Waiting for my dreams to pay the bills as I’m gradually depleted
Time bought on the will of my debt to survive
Financing the means of breathing
Another cog in the machine
Killing myself to come alive
When the cost of everything is blood, I just keep on bleeding
In this material world of the consumerism fiend
Words in the tares sprout up to seed...

He Who Has Control of Words...
He who has control of words can control the universe
Or at least have the masses do his bidding
He who has control of words can stir up emotions
Swaying their choices however he sees fitting
There have been those who understood the power of words
Throughout history many have been great orators
Some have taken to help out and change the world
While others sought more power to become dictators
Yet if those who know words but don’t know their meaning
They will raise false hopes in hollowed out souls
And the consequences of the words...

Transitions
Change is inevitable
It is one of the few things we are guaranteed in life
As times goes by and we grow old
So too must our minds
Accepting the rules of the universe
Transitions should not cause us despair
They can be foundations of inner strength
Teaching us to be flexible and adaptable
Giving us a more depth look into our existence
The human experience is filled with quick turns
It can go from joy to misfortune in an instant
Because in the ebb and flow of life
There are constant variations
And if we...
