Two parasites back at it again, History repeats itself as it nears its end. The beating eyes of the hungry people will crumble, In all the pages of our textbooks artificial mumble. They type and they write And they shout and they fight. You scream and you cry And they laugh while you die.

Just Another Day
Perhaps instead of expecting things Expecting everything to end the way you think, It is better to leave them to the unknown. To leave them empty so as you travel, As you evolve… And the pages will follow.

No puede ser posible Conectar con algo tan inanimado como un libro. No puede ser posible Sentir tan cerca con alguien que no conoces. No puede ser posible Estar con el pueblo cuando nunca fuiste. Pero es.

La Evolución de la Niña
He walks the earth for twenty nine years. Never knowing what he is doing, Never thinking of what is, But only of what is to come. What is he? What does he want? Does it even matter?

Oh black bear, prowling along the soft sweet forest floor. You look at me without expression. You look at me like I'm just like you. When in reality... I am.

Oh Black Bear
Through the sun speckled forest up the mountain Lies the beautiful and the rich. The one that realizes the truth in the universe, The truth in god and everything holy. The truth that he embraces... The truth that nothing really matters. That from suffering comes compassion, That from selfish beings comes selflessness. Without love, There would be no truth.

I'm Coming Along With You
The mighty grizzly bear Waiting by the waterfall Watching the crashing waves Listening to their mystic moves The first salmon leaps, Just to make sure it doesn’t run into a famished bear It’s mind panics, as it realizes what is happening The bear’s mouth widens And clamps down its jaws Satisfied with his dinner, but wanting much more. The wolf cries out from above Depending on the moonlight to show her the path She’s drifting away, too tired. But remembers she needs to feed her cubs She lurks in between black spruce trees Her sons, closely following behind. The creatures of the night watch where they run Making sure they don’t catch the attention of death. Though she doesn’t realize, the scampering rabbit Just two feet in front of her The rabbit is lucky enough to have a snow white coat To blend into god’s blanket, laid across the land. Mother wolf isn’t so blessed, for tonight is one more night Her cubs will have to go unfed. The eagle Mastering the art of flying Swimming in the skies Looking for a tree, too perfect to live Skimming the land Just the perfect tree is all he needs To sleep on tonight For the sun is coming down And moon is rising up The stars become visible The eagle is getting worried But finally, he finds a tree Swings down and places its claws onto a branch So peaceful, listening to the wolf’s howl Like the theme song to his life. Unlike the “woof” that the same animal makes It pierces his ears, the eagle loathes it. Finally asleep, eyes closed. Dreaming is his favorite thing A television for his mind.
