Thumbs up
On the side of the road
Where human connection
Was founded
Soul to soul
But today
Human worth is created
Over a sea of binary
01101100 01101001 01101011 01100101 01110011
Instantly gratified
With the facade of finery.

Dangling
Above the mouth of Caesar
The fruit of wine
Serves one sole purpose
To sweeten the pallet
And quench the thirst
Of the man who controls
The fate of others
But
The natural cluster
That grapes do grow
Suggests that we're better
Together
And not alone.

Stillness
A cocoon of mundanity
Built on concrete
And
The fossils of butterflies past
Driven by Benjamin
The cycle goes
Fermented hopes and dreams
Within a membrane of glass
But on the ground
Is where you'll see
All caterpillars may have the chance
To fly free

A flower is but a bud
Without the rain
A picture
Is nothing without a frame
And
Until I met the girl
Who made me a man
Love truly
Had no name.

The leaf floats down
Landing on the table top
Where the pen strikes
Carrying on its fleeting surface
A palaver
That drifts from mind to line
Each word bears a burden
A responsibility
To ensure that each petal
Does not wither in vain
The leaf floats down
Landing on your table top.

To the quiet mind
That roams the street
Full of soul
And oh so meek
For when the noise
Of growth ensconces
Your feet remind you
That every step
Has
Lead
You
Onward.

The concrete walls
Stifle the longing gaze
Of connection, of love
Heavy eyes
Tender heart
Where the rhythm of the world
No longer fills the air
But reduced to binary
Time and need
Heavy eyes
Tender heart
But a breath of fresh air
Is all that you need
To start wishing, wondering
And imagining again.

**** two birds with one stone
Or so we've been told
To stay grounded, to stay level
To clip the wings of others
So we won't be alone
Imagine though
If all birds were allowed to fly
How beautiful the sky would be.

The waves hit the shore, in constant chorus
Where the salt and water swirl in concert
Sleep, provides a temporary solace
When life leaves no place to hide
