Rain drop centipede Trailing down my window I fear bugs With too many legs But you're a friend to my future Telling me my past friend Might be in my future Youre an odd creature Making your way Down my looking glass A sort of looking pass Letting me see Whats outside So I dont have to be When to be isnt the question I am only around When others think about me The truth Lies in a memory What is to exist But to be known Some sort of Commodity Existence is currency Bought and sold currently I want much more Than what I have But I fear The reaper comes Before a rising sun

Centipede
Gently my skin is dressed In chilling realization Through condensation of the fog That I walk through every day Drenching me in Ideas I hold thought within me As humanity clouds my soul I hold thought within me As inanity invades the bowl That is my skull Where resides a machine Infinite and confined Violent and gentle Through persistent nettle I travel To hear the kettle Warning me Telling me Showing me What is my own And how I should hear My own tone Thought You which is what makes me Without what could I be No ocean wild and free No boundless fields Without you how could I see The beauty of the stars How could I see The planted tree And your magnificent seeds Thought You which is what creates What is you but to be In nature you are out Unnatural to the world Yet you make sense of it all With such perfection Such precision Black sheep of the universe Rejected by every world you touch But accepted by those you clutch And become Thought You which is what makes me How much more every day Could you be How much more normalcy Could you need Than thought It's complete persistence Always and forever A clock that will never unwind Thought Incomprehensible The breath of the mind Grasped from a need to survive A treasure picked from a random bag So much different Than the world it is from You are wonderful A lover And a foe My best friend And my worst enemy I hate you with all I have And I give you all I know For to be is to hate and love To know is to think To think is to have thought And with thought Is to be human

An Ode to Thought
Gently my skin is dressed In chilling realization Through condensation of the fog That I walk through every day Drenching me in Ideas I hold thought within me As humanity clouds my soul I hold thought within me As inanity invades the bowl That is my skull Where resides a machine Infinite and confined Violent and gentle Through persistent nettle I travel To hear the kettle Warning me Telling me Showing me What is my own And how I should hear My own tone Thought You which is what makes me Without what could I be No ocean wild and free No boundless fields Without you how could I see The beauty of the stars How could I see The planted tree And your magnificent seeds Thought You which is what creates What is you but to be In nature you are out Unnatural to the world Yet you make sense of it all With such perfection Such precision Black sheep of the universe Rejected by every world you touch But accepted by those you clutch And become Thought You which is what makes me How much more every day Could you be How much more normalcy Could you need Than thought It's complete persistence Always and forever A clock that will never unwind Thought Incomprehensible The breath of the mind Grasped from a need to survive A treasure picked from a random bag So much different Than the world it is from You are wonderful A lover And a foe My best friend And my worst enemy I hate you with all I have And I give you all I know For to be is to hate and love To know is to think To think is to have thought And with thought Is to be human

Just to prove to you How good I am at what I do For every three ill give you five For every four ill give you nine For every time i breath i inhale Glory Glory hallelujah Who am I too ya? Should you think me Leader Peasent Messiah No longer present A disease A dream A cannonball soaring through Ocean air and beyond The **** bang boom crack The attack from each ship I am not just a cannonball but a captain So tell me why I let my thoughts lead me Ode to the mind All will concede to me Because I am heavy My words weight a ton My print is never done Within my eyes burns the sun Two bright beautiful stars of greatness I am greek thought From my eyes shoot beams of light The opposite of what you expect Of what you know i am not A force of nature I cannot stop I am on top The son of the universe Jewel of the earth I can do so much to show you my worth But for so many I shine less bright I slow down For you for every three ill give you four For every four ill give you five With you I can make sense of what I mean What it is to be Sometimes im too much A burning raging fire Ready to incinerate all in its path But for you I am a covered camp fire Made calm by your weather I guess the reason I love the rain so much Is because I see the planet every time I look into your eyes With cloudy skies And drops of rain Gently dropping by I guess the reason I love the rain so much Is because I burn so hot And its nice To cool down every once in a while

Glory
When we look above And see the sky So loudly we hear its call Whispering our name Inviting us to bathe In the glory of its lights When the sky is painted We sigh at its beauty In love with its dizzying dsiplay A concert of colors For the soul to listen to And when the light gently fades Over the hill top A new world arises Cool and dark Gentle and mesmerizing We are washed In our ancestors glow One could not know so little Of our sky Always beautiful Always with us Deep in our minds Deep in our hearts The sky knows us And we know it

Deep within us
When I am just a bit older What will I do Everything I try Never falls through So will i be starving On the streets of berkeley Will I be freezing In new York On christmas What will I do When my words run out And theres no more paper For me to use What will I do Am I another vagabond Bound for hard labor Could I ever tame the tides To work in my favor I fear That my want Is crumbling To dust And I fear That my envy Is consuming My fragile mind What will I do What will I do When my lines dont sell And my heart has fell What will I do What can I do

What will I do
I do not need your words I do not need your negativity I grace your pathetic existence With my very being You cannot drag me to refuse For with me is light And holiness I scorn you With all I have You are nothing Under my boot My wrath to your anger Is an ocean to a drop Everything within me Is greater than you'll ever be I speak with other gods And we may talk of our works And lament our words But you Are an insect Your speech is the sorry echo Of all the bugs before you Disgusting and insignificant Do not bother me With your shallow petty mind

Scorn.
Today is a day for writing I tell myself this As if it actually means anything Instead I take a walk The air is crisp The trees gently sway With the soft october wind And I sigh For how could I ever describe The architecture of nature The careful precision of tree roots How could I describe The luminous patterns I see In every creature Every plant What justice could I bring So I walk home And I tell myself Today is a day for writing And you will try your best

Justice for Nature
Every night The sky plays a celestial song A silent melody For the eyes to listen to

Star Song
Hatred encompassing our being No being exempt from seeing The tortue of earth Capitalistic communists Preaching iphone sermons And latte speeches While corporations leave plastic on our beaches What kind of message this practice teaches Is that its okay to be government leeches And corprate zombies In that its all cream and peaches But fact is within the care And truth is just outside of that To know is to suffer But to not is to buffer Stuttering smoothly through life Questions arise but are stuffed away All answers lay in elected hands No introspection Illegal to question discretion Be discrete when realizing the world The eyes are watching And the ears are listening The last thing they want Is to see your knowledge The last thing they want Is to hear your power

To Garner a Thought
How could I ever compare To epic tales Or ten page poems How could I ever be A leader A teacher Someone who's knowledge matches Their confidence How could I ever see Millions of copies sold A view that comes with piña colada Cold How could someone like me With nothing to bring Or give Who's prideful facade Will cascade with the dust How could something so sweet A dream so sought And craved Ever come to be
