A chocolate drop that hit the spot a swig of ale to liven those stale a warm sweater to make things better but a breathe of love is where lies the rub be it gloomy and dark without a place to park cold and wet with a losing bet lost and broke ready to croak from end to start, the jewel of life, is a heart

sweet desire
We were given the sun. but it wasn't to our leisure so we created light so we could see easier. we were born with legs but not quite fast enough so made machines so our lives wouldn't be as tough we have minds to explore but thoughts required effort so we gave in to pleasure and became sheep to the shepard

a given
Every concept of time rattles my mind be it arbitrary measurements derived from mankind or the string theory of blurred lines that dissipates into multiple lives Dilate Ra's eye and force the universe to cry in order to supply the ripples, waves and tides that become our guides

Time lines
Some quiet thoughts while boredom's fought since the ticking clock can't be bought, for naught is all efforts to swim upstream or down or in between we are only carried and the results may vary on where we stop so carry the drop from the streams top with care. because life's fair is only fair when we stop there and enjoy the now so many the rhythm of time forever remind you that every tick is opportunity missed

Boredom
In a tranquil land in a time of calm where a book is followed that preaches peace in psalms where fits the warrior when Gandhi preaches love in attempts to abolish evil and a king of no crown seeks to make all men equal where fits the fighter while every life is precious and every land sacred a dying breed of people are ridiculed and hated where fits the soldier

No Room
My decent to madness is the candle that burns and as the wax gives weigh my sanity begins to yearn for another sanctuary to replace my thoughts before i drift to darkness and lose sight of plot as the abyss stares back I cope with a lost mind yet I wade through the void seeking any glimmer or shine just a spark in the black to be my new guide for even the faintest of light can become your life line

Closing Tunnel
As I am immersed in love's sweet surrender I embrace that which takes my life And though my heart is hard and tempered In this war it has lost the fight These pools of black draw me deeper that which has drained my will a locked soul and its keeper drowning in their fill Unable to escape I ponder my fate A futile effort, devoid of bliss defeated I recede to a passive state and accept her cold, eternal, kiss.

Sinking Thoughts
Who among thee will try and stop me If I were to commit acts of atrocities The slaughter of men or derogation of women The slander of peoples and violence towards them Who here would take arms and intervene Who of you has the courage to stand Against a brother or a friend who intends to command Despair and pain delivered in troves Fear and terror that rattles the bones... Who here shall fight to disarm my will Foil my plans to insure my fate ill Band against blood that once held us close Relegate bonds and force death my dose If I were to fall from the edge of moral sight Could I depend on you, for justice, to fight?

Could You Fight?
live this day not in waste lest you forget beauty's grace shame it'd be if you forgot the face of every desire that man will chase

In the moment
What defines us? the possessions we own or the people we trust the silk that we've sown or our desires and lust our actions in life or the words before death adversity and strife or what took our last breath are any of these valid? like pieces of a salad or are none true like light to a shrew is it motivation and drive ambitions that makes us strive for our goals before we lose time and meet the end of our lives must we dive deep past the mind in order to find the secret shrine that hides its kind is my soul me? or does it act like me for you see this question diminishes any desire in finishing this extinguishing life for if I know not who am how will I know who to be what if I am a stagnant man or erratic like the sea what if you put a brand with which I do not agree will I carry this image for the rest of days and who are you to judge there is no merit in your say! our view is our own maybe Nietzsche was right personal truth is our home there is no need to fight I am here and I am me nothing else matters may Descartes smile in death for my illusion is shattered
