Society is a prison.
It traps you in
And steals your freedoms.
Makes you conform.
Until you are normal.

So why don't we escape?

Because we are afraid.
Afraid of being alone.
Loneliness rots the mind
It steels the heart.

We all decided
Being trapped together
Is better than to be free
Alone.

she stands there,
wind through her hair,
dazed and unaware,
numb and hopeless,
a broken goddess.

she stands there
waiting for time
to fade her away
into the dark, cold night.
A little prayer for Kanye
Fellow bipolar roller
Keep him humble and hope
Wait out the storm

Miso soup and salad
Arigato, Mother Mary
Me and Susan at JMU
Talking in her dorm

You got a friend in me
Talkin' bout ChiCity
Wendy and it's windy
Feelings flow and warm

Dark, twisted fantasy
Black lace, green lights
2 flights 1 night's delights
La Florida y Form

You may not be
The moon or
A star or
The sun
Beaming vision to the world.

But to me
You are
The cute little
Firefly
Casting hope in me.

I dreamed that I died last night,
not just once but twice.
What the hell is that all about?
