Some things need to be believed
to be seen
Magic is something achieved
it seems
By those who have conceived
their dreams

Wherever you go,
Go with all your heart.
Whenever you start,
Don’t stop, just flow.
Whenever you choose,
Choose being kind.
Whenever you mind,
Don’t judge, wear their shoes.
Whenever you do good,
Good things will come.
Whatever you think you become.
Don’t be ignorant; be understood
Whenever you disdain,
Disdain becomes your tomb.
Whenever you want to bloom,
Don’t be thunder; be rain
Whenever you get wronged,
Wrongness should be forgotten.
Whenever you feel rotten,
Don’t remember; it’s prolonged.
Whenever you judge,
Judge yourself not others.
Whenever you’re with brothers,
Don’t hold contempt nor a grudge.
Whenever you are true,
Truth will set you free.
Whenever you can be,
Don’t be someone else, be you.

The world is a symphony,
whose instruments need to be tuned.
If we ever want to mend its wound,
we need to learn some sympathy.

And there he sat
transfixed
with his head
cocked to the side
pressed against
his tense shoulder
His tight chin
cringed upward
shrieking for relief
while his gray mane
draped in the drool
draining from
his dead lips
curled into
the wrinkles of
his withered face
His obtruding veins
Splintered his fragile skin
Into fractured slivers
Like splitting sheets of ice
On a warming winter river
Each flake shriveled
As the blood receded
Fading each pastel color
Into shades of grey
His bushy eyebrows
protruded over
those murky, marbled eyes
with pupils like
creamy, black clouds
lingering faintly amidst
a midnight blue sky
But as he sat
Dead paralyzed
In an eternal lullaby
He still looked alive

Have you ever stopped abruptly,
When two parts of your mind were deliberating,
And thought to yourself bluntly:
“Who is the me that is listening to this contemplating?”
You’ll realize that this me of you is the true you, you see.
It does not have a voice but is the silent observer.
Like watching tv, it’s your spectator me,
Your inner true self, your life preserver.
This spectator me cannot think or talk;
It just… is. It is the now. It is the here.
It’s the timeless clock that does not tick or tock.
It’s you. The real you. The almighty seer.

You are not the pen; you are the ink.
You are not your thoughts; you do not think.
The mind might be perpetual violence,
But you are the tranquil silence.
You are the watcher, you are not the mind.
You are the stillness; you await behind.
The possessing entity has you mistaken,
But become aware and you’ll awaken.

I am Jekyll; I am Hyde
The Yin and Yang constantly collide
I follow the light; I live in the dark
My silhouette is never stark
I want everything; I need nothing
Honest as a mirror but constantly bluffing
I am the whole and the hole
I am the wretched beautiful human soul

How we marvel at possessions, think they make the best impressions;
For with material things we establish a close rapport.
Can’t you see we are infected by this false truth we’ve injected
Into the minds we’ve neglected, directed by commercial lore.
“These things will make you happy,” says the preacher of commercial lore,
Only this and nothing more.
There are nights we sit there spying, through our computer screens buying
Bourbon, books, and onyx watches, razor blades and house décor,
Brilliant scarfs in bright vermilion, cowboy boots coated reptilian,
Stroll through any mall pavilion, civilians shop in every store.
Like clockwork we comeback again, millions spent in every store;
We always want something more.
Like in monopoly we aspire, the best estates to acquire,
So other players can look in envy at our great high score.
With the money we’ve been savin’, we want a home in New Haven,
So we sought a market Maven, craving a house on the shore,
A vintage house with wooden dock sitting calmly on the shore.
Can we find one that’s worth more?
Queerly we lust for assets, keep on buying have no regrets.
Are we dumb or blind or numb to keep doing what we abhor?
Statues shackled to cubicles, doped up on pharmaceuticals
****** fingers raw cuticles, we’re bulls for the matador.
He dances us round in circles, pulls the sword the matador
Is the one we all fall for.
But the Maven respectfully will encourage us helpfully,
“Follow your path of senseless sorrow, leave your qualms at the door,
Carry on with inhibition, keep working for that commission,
Please don’t mind your intuition, fruition comes from spending more.”
But like layered lies there’s a pea of truth on the mattress floor;
A princess would wake up sore.
We must move past our gluttony, and join the better company
Of men meek in spirit who act humbly like the days of yore.
Realize that joy stems from passion, not this sorry thing called fashion;
Embrace others with compassion to truly make our hearts soar;
And our souls from out the shadows can truly begin to soar.
Let’s be greedy – nevermore.

Sometimes
the words drop
from fingertips,
climbing over each
other like playful
children.
Sometimes
the words flow
quietly, gently,
like soft waters in
a whispering pond.
Sometimes
the words burst out,
roaring like mighty
thunder,
sparking the sky
like brilliant
lightening.
Sometimes
the words spill out,
like scalding lava,
scorching and setting
aflame all in their wake.
Sometimes
the words latch on
with fangs,
suckling the life
force from its
intended victim.
Sometimes
the words infuse
thought and passion
into the bloodstream,
like a ***** *********
injecting
euphoric bliss.
Sometimes
the words sit back,
silently observing
waiting,
patiently,
for the need
to birth the cries
of the heavy heart
releasing an ocean
of emotion…
and drowning
the world.
