For warmth we hunger
As winter rolls like thunder
Curtis Feb 2019
What a beautiful day

The sun is shining
The birds are chirping

The surface of this beautiful earth is glowing
Radiating with beautiful life
Curtis Sep 2014
It never matters
What anyone else sees
In the end
It's only what I be
Curtis Jul 2015
Music is measured by time...
Or is time,
Measured by music?
Curtis Sep 2014
Through the filter
To the core
Everything
Is to be absorbed
Curtis Aug 2014
The ease
Of untouchable flow
Where every input
Equates to an equal output
A mans love
For technology
Pure logic
Fits like a glove
To hide
Fingerprints
Curtis Apr 2016
I feel the fire
Its in my head
Above my brow
Between my eyes

A plenty of fuel
Will keep it alive
Not enough
To let it burn me inside
Curtis May 2014
My body a river
Constantly flowing
Through the world
Through time
Producing such rhymes

Some choose different
To be a rock
In a river
Or in many
Never to move
Only to corrode
To never sway
Only to fade away
Just hoping one day
They will be the sand
Where all the rivers end
Curtis Sep 2014
What is it?
About today,
This day!

The air seems wrong,
And just a bit strange,
Like time is thin and long.

Breathing is just not the same,
A lion whos too angry to tame,
Anger however not to blame.

Something is missing.

A hotdog,
Without a bun?

A clown,
Void of fun?

A comedian,
With no pun?

I'll venture forth
I'll tackle this day

Hopefully something good comes my way
Curtis Apr 2014
Weak minds understand the problem
Normal minds understand the solution
Strong minds understand both
I expect criticism for this one
Curtis Oct 2016
In order for one to reach their fullest potential,
Must they first know what that is?
Curtis Aug 2014
There is a certain sense of beauty
Almost like a building
Covered in ivy
When I can order a beer
With no fear
Of anyone checking my I.D.
Do not let it be told
I am not one year older
Than 20
Curtis Sep 2014
Once you feel
The inner workings of your mind
You fall in fear
Of the racing thoughts inside

Focus on the things around
A sight
Or maybe a sound
Hear your thoughts grow loud

That is where the beauty of racing thoughts is found

At least for me anyhow.
Curtis Aug 2014
Acknowledge fractals.
Infinity can be found,
In all small places.
Curtis Sep 2014
I need to sleep
I love to sleep
The place where
The soul can creep
But i want to see
All the eyes can see
Just eternally be

In the end
What else are we

Free
Curtis Aug 2014
Nothing like a gesture
From one friend
To another
To make me feel
A thousand times better
Curtis May 2014
The humid air
And the blue sky
Today
Are my friends
Curtis Aug 2014
How much longer
Do I have to wait
To be able to determine
My own lifes income

I want no influence
On the things I do
Determined at heart
This WILL come true
Curtis Sep 2014
The future I find
Is a big part of ones life
One can feel they miss
Curtis Oct 2014
I wish,
There was something to say,
Different from the things i say everyday.

The world,
And its unsupportive legs.
Communications,
Loaded with lies,
Severing any honest mans ties.

I wish to speak,
Of a world new.
A beautiful place,
Every corner,
A corner new.
Endless sees of green.
No want.
No need.
To hold it to your being,
With anything other than your eyes.

To take,
And to give back.
To work towards something,
You lack.
To know,
There is indeed no knife,
Behind your back.
Curtis Oct 2014
Even the smallest gears
Have the greatest potential
To disrupt the clock
Curtis Aug 2014
I purchased today,
A meal,
As is done,
Everyday,
But this time,
For me?
Nay.
For one,
Who could not pay.
Curtis May 2017
Where we were last night
I don't remember
All I know is that we had to go

Wherever we went
We didn't drive
I held your bag of rocks
The entire time
Go
Curtis Nov 2014
Go
I want to go
thats it
just go
i want to move
I want to flow
let me go
watch me go
but most of all
Watch me grow

I want to lose myself
In infinity
not just a town
or a city
the whole world
Can be pretty
some parts though
Get ******

No time before
exists now
Time ahead
a field to plow
but what to do
and where to go
Just gotta let it ride
just gotta be the flow
Curtis Jun 2015
It is the energy of a good day
That does not easily sway
Curtis Apr 2016
On this porch
Sitting in the sun
Listening to the birds
Breathing morning air

Sips of black coffee
A cigarette in my hand
It may not be the greatest
But im the king of this land
Curtis Sep 2014
Theres something
I would like to ask

Sitting in this coffee shop
Watching as time laps

In this country that we live
A part of a mass

Yet divided
Amongst social class

I imagine now a cow
Eating green grass

And kids
Being sent to class

Learning
Green is what lasts

As we eat
We raise a glass

While somewhere
A cow eats green grass

Overpopulated and overgrown
Do the farmers farm too fast?
Curtis Jul 2014
Exhaustion is an unwelcomed guest
Whos timing is a perfect pest
Always when my mind is best
It is time for rest
With DMT dreams
We all are blessed
Curtis May 2014
The subtle ache in my fingertips
Where calloused skin now grows
The love for my guitar certainly shows

I cannot wait
For the work day to end
So I can venture off
Guitar in hand
To the place
Where suburbia dare never blend

Amongst the trees
And a calming breeze
Beautiful music comes with ease

What things today may hold
What people i may meet
Is to be untold
Whatever the case
Amongst the beauty of growth
There be not a better place
To venture off
And put on a smiling face
Curtis Sep 2014
Slowly I realize
Meanings behind lies

Symbols
How they relate

Monsters
Are part of one's fate

Take for example

Medusa
A woman who dares not
To be beautiful
And any man
Caught staring
Gets caught
And then is stone

A vampire
Devious and cruel
Wanting only physics
Blood and lust
And vanity

Zombie
The most interesting
A body turned
Against its will
Into something
To turn others

Countless examples
Of a story

Viewed another way
Curtis Sep 2014
Don't be afraid
Just hold my hand
I can help you
Through this broken land
Curtis Oct 2014
It makes me uncomfortable
To know
We bury men
In the most comfortable position

I feel like I sleep
Like I'm in a casket
Curtis Oct 2014
Today
Is a good day
Seems every customer
Has let their happiness
Come out and play

This is the way
I wish it to stay
Curtis Sep 2014
You should be happy!
You should be glad!
Infinite experience awaits,
For you to be had!
Love Love Love
Curtis May 2015
Constantly removing
A vast empty space

My racing thoughts

Come closer
To my aging face
Curtis May 2014
The water
Warm
Smelling of rubber

It relieves not my skin
Rather it makes
A film of sweat so thin
Holding my heat in

I envy those
Who can say heat
I do not know

I mean not
Those on a california shore
Or even those
In a middle eastern war

I mean to say
Those who dream
Of seeing even a slightest
Hint of a stream

For it is they
Who would look to me
And would say

"It is a feat
To survive such heat,
But the weather here
Will never come near."
I know not heat
Curtis May 2014
Where is my creativity
It flowed so easily
Like a river flowing steady
Now like a block of iron
Heavy
Curtis Jul 2014
Ever wondered,
What it's like to be dead?
Just spend a few months,
Inside your own head.

Remember,
You're not insane.
Your mind,
Is a beast to tame,
And life,
Is just your game.
How are you today
Curtis Apr 2014
Hello followers
How are you
I'm not well i must admit
If your here or there
Its good you care
Always care
Take it
Take it everywhere
Hey
Curtis Sep 2014
Hey
Speak freely friends
With a voice that echoes
Bring the sound of your soul
Where no sound goes
Upon deaf ears
Your voice glows

Breathe easy friends
Let your wind blow
Pull the wind back
Until your thoughts slow
Being of the earth
Zen is what you know
Curtis Aug 2014
In this place
Housing history
The air seems still

From old coffee
And the cup where it rests
To the garment
Once embracing gentle *******
And many mens eyes

Left now
To hold tight
To a woman
Of plastic

Notes placed
And misplaced
Some to be seen
Behind a glass case

All things
To never change
Only occasionally
To be forgotten
Worin' at the Richfield Historical Society
Hmm
Curtis Sep 2014
Hmm
Adjustment to time
Is nonexistant
To the life of a rhyme
Curtis Dec 2014
For someone
who claims
to emit
such great vibes

I find it hard
To believe
Your holey
mouth of lies

Truths hidden
deep behind your words
To think i do not know
is truly absurd

All the dimensions
And all your talk
you seem to forget
The third
Curtis Sep 2014
I look forward
To the time from now
That seems quite far

Soon I will be home
To caress the strings
Of one beautiful guitar
Curtis Apr 2014
In this world
I have a home
A home with bed
With food
With wine
Without serenity

But i have another
With friends
To keep me company
And trees to cover me
Life all around
My sorrow not be found
Natures care
Is always there
Curtis Sep 2014
No lie is worse
Than the lie
One tells themself
Curtis Sep 2014
Awakened
Again

Very little sleep
I found

My body feels glued
To the ground

Only because I'm sick
As a hound
Curtis Aug 2014
Even in an age
Of everything new
We are still human
Regardless of what we do
Curtis Aug 2014
What is it
That we humans
Do best?
The answer
You will find
When we rest
It is what is released
In our mind
Even in the day
From time to time
It is what colors
A computer green
When a human
Simply dreams
