You can walk through any one that suits you. / - Morrison
Love is more than taking her once a week in your freshly cleaned car to a hotel and on a shopping spree without knowing what her thoughts and dreams might be without listening to her level of frequency Can you tell me What is intimacy? While you take a trip to the center of your mind trying to redefine what you really want in life Is it money, fame or neither? Maybe now you really need her To hold you tight and cook you dinner

Love
They talking but I never betray They hustling but at home I stay They calling for me, can't say I ain't afraid Tears, blood, and diamonds, slay Don't slay the queen Love her in her castle by the bay Summer never end, only I'll run away Summer never end, pick me up just ride my way Ride the wave, ride the snake Yes, I hear them calling every day Every day but I am ashamed of their game Palm trees, bling bling, and lychees Sunset never end on these two wheels Keep track of em greens Cause I can't count my feels

California
This duty of Doing Of occupying Of deciding Of settling Slow down Even if I did not move a finger today - this day My entire self travelled in immense speed to reach out wherever it wanted My muses told me to invite you over Whenever you are done - moving your fingers

Duty Call
Friday foggy night and I was wondering, just wondering As I noticed how silent the city is that I once used to live in How silent I was not anymore This is not the place to be, I thought As it only wanted me to lay my head on its shoulder How loud I had become The city I grew up in

The City I Grew Up In
A thought on which tone my coffee would have this morning. Or who on the street would have my whole attention – think about the stranger before I fall asleep and get revealed to what myself does when the shell does not count. A thought on the distance to the eyes I sit under. I would like to love you running out of all options. The cry over the city surrounding the crowd, come home in the early hours painted on clocks. A thought on the need of all the driving around and the sun melting my face. Figures that open and close their mouths – I am listening by looking. The Later is the Now and there is no exit.

The Morning Glory
Awake, awake my little Boy! Thou wast thy Mother’s only joy: Why dost thou weep in thy gentle sleep? Awake! thy Father does thee keep. “O, what land is the Land of Dreams? What are its mountains, and what are its streams? O Father, I saw my Mother there, Among the lillies by waters fair. Among the lambs clothed in white She walked with her Thomas in sweet delight. I wept for joy, like a dove I mourn— O when shall I return again?” Dear child, I also by pleasant streams Have wandered all night in the Land of Dreams; But though calm and warm the waters wide, I could not get to the other side. “Father, O Father, what do we here, In this land of unbelief and fear? The Land of Dreams is better far Above the light of the Morning Star.”

The Land Of Dreams
I challenge you To speak as you were writing your last poetry As you are the street light at night As you are the reflection on a gloomy wall As you are the smoke scratching a throat You are talking to your muse As you are only your hands shaking it out Without the perception of self Talking to your secret fear The voices will finally sing That is the world I want to live in Talking to the muse An eternity long Talking to your muse

To Jim
If it wasn't for the words that build up my poetry My mouth I'd cut it off with my mothers kitchen knife Hang it upon the wall like a master piece of art Blood has never harmed anybody My eyes picked out with toothpicks An old man in a suit will eat them like olives in a glass My hands I honor them to lead the pen to the finish line Those I will keep

Solitude of Writing
A quality of ignorance, self-deception may be necessary to the poet’s survival. Jim Morrison

A Stolen One
All my people All my adventure All my passion All my free love I have found in only one Only you I would give the world improved Ready to roll into the black hole I pull my eyes to the left They see snow on dead ground Naked trees high on anorexia Pieces of blue are trying to paint idyllic But I’m not here I’m with you at the hallways with the sun knocking at the door, even at night. In front we have the past as well as the present Couldn’t be more majestic I’m not here. Those days and nights put into a spinning wheel , moving on us. And no time to shower The bluest lake full of past, eyelashes of gods and tears of monsters My mind was not set No connections of past Absolute state of endless freedom Absolutely lost Light my cigarette honey Give me time to grab the pen Give me time to lose a sense of self Give me the chance to ride in speed of light Let’s meet on the other side I get what I wish for – it pours over my skin like burning ice All the time more than I can take Let me rest at the train station tonight. Strange strangers you will get to meet Torn apart by pain Thinking to find answers in their own mirrors In others shadows Creatures of darkness He lit another cigarette for me It was cold, dark outside The dragon provided me with fire Exhausted from spoken words and told stories I wanted to go home If I only knew where it was.
