The Games we Play...14:15 Sep 19 2023
Times Read: 201
The low hanging fruit you pick first.
This you must understand:
Finite are your resources and running low.
End Quickly down the drain.
How to renew?
Well, glad you asked...
Let's play a game:
Let's us pretend, that in life
Levels of a game we must transcend.
Each level has its boss.
Each level builds on all the others which it support..
Each level appears like it's unique.
But, unique they're not,
But there’s a pyramid with no peak in sight.
Like those in ancient Egypt: who builds them?
Glad you asked... asking the question to the solution paves the way...
We all live in prisons of our own making.
But, all don't start equal and the game is rigged.
The rich get richer and the House always wins.
So, become rich, become the House and profit.
Justice doesn't exist, Just for whom?
Justice is harsh judgment, it maybe fair, but out of reach...
Some even say:"Just do not be, but Smart instead..."
The prisons we find ourselves in...08:20 Sep 18 2023

In prisons with invisible bars,
Bodies filled with invisible scars,
Laying, dreaming, wonderful dreams
Of huge palaces, balls, maidens.
Beautiful walls,
Protective even.
The truth of the matter,
The truth of it all.
That living in the here and know.
Knowing where you are,
Is all the counts.
You might dream a thousand dreams,
You might even feel like they're real.
Your body is withering,
Your soul is tied,
Your spirit is bound.
It's time to wake up,
Rise up and face the music.
And if a certain bastard,
Thinks I'm his sucker.
And he can just put me away...
Well, I won't stand for that,
Or for everything I shall fall...
And there was Darkness...06:37 Sep 17 2023

Why must I create Chaos, destruction?
Is it just an obstruction to my happiness?
Or is the right way forward, the correct passage, the doorway
To a whole new brave world...
When there's construction, first there must be destruction.
To remove all the obstacles from the way?!
Oh, The one without a master, Blial,
Step forward and clear the way...
Pain and pleasure, high and low…12:50 Sep 16 2023
Times Read: 266
The pain I must release, but will me it please?
Will it make me whole again?
Will it make me understand?
Will it help me find all those things I’m looking for?
Why is it strong?
Why is it fast?
Will it last?!
And why is pleasure gone, so fast?
Holding on for dear life, and trying to go deep, trying my dignity to keep…
Digging, deeper and deeper and deeper.
Secrets. Finding meaning, finding, and strengthening my foundation.
Finally, I reach elation.
The gyration in my stomach. Is it part of the equation?
Do I need to balance it?
both sides equal as if on the scale?
what’s my tale?
shall I have the taste of victory?
The singing isn’t over10:14 Sep 14 2023
Times Read: 287
I haven’t sung my last tune, I haven’t gone off the deep end.
I’m standing in front of a tall mountain gazing at its peak.
The view is breathtaking.
I begin to climb, bit by bit upward and outward.
I stop for a short rest.
And then go on on onward…
A warm summer day11:07 Sep 12 2023

The heat isn’t broken, too much of a good thing is a bad one.
You can go to the beach after work or on the weekends,
But it you will never escape .
I can’t say I love the winter but the summer is also not my friend.
What’s unique about love as opposed to lust instead of just burning it warms you and hugs you and keeps you safe.
Last just burns you just like this heat wave relentlessly until you are down on the ground.
An ode to Fire10:23 Sep 11 2023
Times Read: 309
You are a shining bright through all the night .
You bring delight, you bring me up to the heavens from the earth.
Fire purifies, and removes that which is secondary that which is unnecessary that which is foreign.
Fire of light fire of night, fire, perform for me tonight.
A song to water14:12 Sep 10 2023
Times Read: 316
The streams go on as time goes on, and everything just drips and drips and drips. Where will I go? Where will I stay? Will I be forever? Wondering.
What is the purpose of this life is it an easy afterlife filled with joy?
Well, I will I keep what I have earned or will I lose it?
What’s true possession?
And can I have it?
And should I have it?
NO eye has seen…16:41 Sep 09 2023
Times Read: 322
No, eye has seen
no ear has heard
what I am about to tell you
Hey bargains, bargains
We all make them, we all break them
But there is a price to pay
For every thing in the under the sun
There is a price and there is a measure
From that I don’t derive any pleasure…
What does it all mean?
For something else…13:24 Sep 07 2023

Love, oh love.
Do you exist?
Or you’re just a mist? Of possibilities…
Will you give comfort when I’m cold?
Will you give me assistance, when I’m old?!
Are your fruits worth it? Are they a worthy meal, a feast for kings or bread for beggars?
How do you know it’s real and not just plastic? Is it so fantastic to swoop me of my feet?
Do I still have faith in it?
Total poem17:30 Sep 06 2023
Times Read: 335
Everything, all. The great poll to find what’s currently in vogue . Constantly changing.
Forging connections, forging relationships, moving ahead, stopping never.
What have I left behind. What did I forget?
And why is it even worth thinking ‘bout?
Learning my lessons, hopefully the easy way, learning to myself better.
From light into darkness and back again.
It’s sort of a cycle, an unending chain.
Darkness poem…09:12 Sep 05 2023
Times Read: 361
Darkness, darkness holds the truest light.
from it comes all, to it all shall return.
You are my best friend, when I need comfort.
you blanket me and hug me tight.
Shapes moving in great delight.
Oh darkness hold me tight.
the ravens cry,
The cats go out to play.
It’s the most wonderful time of day.
First poem07:33 Sep 04 2023
Times Read: 380
Dark and light playing out of sight…
Good and bad, why the dread?
What is stopping me from flying?
Should I soar or go within?
How to structure my verse?
How to build up my pitch?
Should I have rhymes?
Deep truths can be conveyed
Via a plain joke…
Why am I being long-winded?
What is it that I seek?
The perfect line, the perfect word.
But all seem lacking…
