What is it when I write
Just plain words
From left to right

Connecting to your inner dictionary
Translation adds up the equation
Plain words, ordinary

Paradigms shift
These thoughts flow
A picture in my head
To you shall go

An apples skin
To cover the sweet meat within
Sanguine as a murderous sin

Polished to a shine
A red mirror for those who dare
To stare upon themselves

Teeth sink inside

And an image into your mind

Inside machinery lies
Grey metal gears of all size

When everything is aligned
And all is right
They slide past another
Each tooth holding on to the other

The gears inside my machinery however
Could be in a condition much better

Bent and broken
Some circuits don't turn
Grinding and grinding
For relief they yearn

The grease that allows gears to slide
Should be maintained
There should be no grind
No grease should be as black as mine

But black can look alright
On a backdrop of white

When I press a page
Against my gears
The most beautiful patterns
Tend to appear

I've got that peddle to the metal
Hear that engine roar
My foot pressed hard against the floor

It's all wasted
I'm in neutral

I've got the strongest mind alive
Feeling feelings like no other would
So deep
So deeply misunderstood

It holds so tightly on everything
That means good greens
And bad things

There's no brake peddles to be found
All I can ever do is let off the gas and slowly slow down
Until I end up in neutral
With my foot to the ground

Live it up
Inside the greenery
Let the light shine down on all the canopies

One great garden grown from the mind
Too thick to let in any sunshine

Dry it up
Burn it to the ground
Leave it for the other side to be found

Everything around now burnt down
The fire smolders and embers surround

No mercy
From the sun
That place where we've all come from

All that energy down to a burnt land
Will soon turn it into orange and red sand

Breathing in
Hoping not to choke
On the smoke greenery had stoked

The other side has come alive
Reaching through where worlds collide

Rainclouds
Appear in the sky
And an angel begins to cry

Something about the energy tonight is right
As if my mind tonight has given up its fight
And chose to exist in harmonious trinity
Bringing a feeling like white light

On this day today
I am a sun
Sending rays of a feeling to you
To brighten a possible bitter mood

I'm reaching my hands toward the dark
Lighting them with my spark
Lighting them with all I am
And with all I have

It brings me joy to see
Another smile when they see me
I ask of you now
Exist in creativity

Unique is the structure of every mind
But without light we would all be blind
Take a moment to stare into a sun
And understand it isn't the only one

There's a feeling I find
When I'm low
Or when I'm high
Way deep back I my mind

I feel energies
Pull down from the sky
And reflect from my middle eye

My body is here and very aware
But the human things that I don't often share
Evidently bring me to believe
Some part of me is unique
An alien here to this land
Watching planet earth crumble to sand

But that's my job and my mission here
I know the beauty and the potential of our great land
I've been there I held my heart in my hand
But so easily it was knocked to the floor
By people who have been taught to be emotionally poor

The beauty of such a reversible mind
Is understanding people in hell and heaven are blind

They do not know the other side
Claiming their way is the only way to survive
I exist on the very thin line
The one we happen to call time

I've been around the sun
More times than I have fingers and toes
I've experienced the beauty of spring
The heat of summer
The calm of fall
And the stillness of winter

Altering the small chunk of earth that I occupy
Slowly building it higher
Complimented by times of digging it down
Constantly moving from states of progression
To times of regression

This time
I leave you behind
I build up the earth
And strengthen the mind
