Another day
Another dollar
Another ray
Of sun dripping from the sky

Today I feel like I could almost
Catch it
Reach it
Distill it and
Drink it

But I’m not sure I am ready
Can’t tell if my heart is steady
Or wants to be steady,
I don’t know who’s driving
This mind of mine

It’s a compass-less captain
And a water-less field
A 3 foot mountain
a harvest with no yield

But I will be ok
I know I will
Be ok
I always am, I always will
It’s just taking more time for my heart to heal

Aimless words to try and make sense of a hard situation...

thoughts

Sometimes I wonder how we do sleep
Serving the dodgy companies we keep
All kicking and scrounging for the very first place
Dictionary definition of a rat race
Pay off those losers we elect to lead
Stealing from the mouths that we're meant to feed
Enslaving the very clothes upon my back
I feel the sting but I hear no crack, no crack

-John Butler

Lyric excerpt from Revolution by John Butler trio
I believe that far to often we do strive for first place at expense of others

Happy

Today. I still don’t
Want to be happy at all
Still another day

Another day, trying to distract myself, I don’t know if I am succeeding...

Good friends

Caffeine. Nicotine.
Alcohol. Good friends to keep.
When life just gets hard

Getting through hard times, alcohol is drank at home though! Stay safe my friends

Broken

I am broken,
I fail
People are broken
People fail

This is the human condition as best I can see
It’s not just you, it isn’t just me

The thing that upsets me
The thing that maddens
It’s the people who emit
If you want to see perfect look at me

I am flawless and others are low
I have attained perfection
And where are you
What a ridiculous deception

It. Makes. Me. Sick.

Just a vent out to rhyme.

Today

Today I feel wrong
Beaten down and stepped on
There are plenty of reasons to feel this
****, today feels long.

Life took a nasty turn
It caught me off guard(as it likes to do)
It will be good later
But today is miseries turn

It feels like sinking in sand
It feels like I am buried bu another’s hand
It feels heavy, sluggish and slow
it feels like my mind will never again glow

And As I write, i know it’s just a phase
But today it feels like haze

Lingering. Thickening. Choking.

Today is a hard day, but writing... writing might help

The Evening

The water sparkles
Now the cigar is smoking
My Evening Solace

Simple Solace Finds me
