Breathe the world in, then let it out
As we contemplate what life is really about
Perhaps it’s a mark upon the world we’re meant to leave
Or some final truth we’re supposed to perceive

Then again maybe we allow ourselves
To be deceived
By the views of science and these religions
We feel compelled to believe
Yet what is it, as sentient beings that we really need?

I observed two lovers blemished by hard life and circumstance
Yet they held tight to true romance
The radiance of their love for each other shone
With the brilliance and beauty of the Kosmos

Two parts come together and on into infinity as a greater whole
Yet I am but a fragment broken and adrift
Out of phase and in no position to repair the rift
So allow me to impart to you these words
Find love before the meaning becomes a blur...

If only I could empty
The pangs of my mind
Upon these pages
What a mess you'd find
In words of rage
In staggering truths
In broken memories
Of my unsettling youth

Instead I write
In a vague dim light
My heart, it cringes
On a cold dark night
So many things
That are never right
Stuffed deep in despair
Where memories blur
A place where forgiveness
Never gave birth

And there upon the page
The tragedy I label mine
Never again a part of me
The mess I'd leave behind...

Within a paradox
Behind misguided thoughts
A rational mind
Can get twisted and caught

What would the world be
If freedom wasn't large?
Dictators and oppressor
Leaving historical scars

Yet it seems freedom
Has failed humanities test
Perhaps the evil free
Are too **** blesses!

Time, love, happiness all are relevant to this unresolved conclusion
Positive energy is pursue like the chasing after a ghost through an endless maze
These hedges hide the guides we follow, this way, this way
A voice echoes from the other side

My dreams are filled with broken images, flashes of lost loves
Deaths I died, places I played as a child
Parts and pieces of my soul’s journey spread thin across this universe
And dissolve into the fabric of my existence...

Good karma and bad karma off-balancing aspects
Of our rebirths and growth
Yet blinded we climb this ladder of evolution
Here the goal shall be achieved
The ancient road-map is only a symbol, the road itself is reality
And so our gods smiles and says hold your course...

In staggered stages voices pass
So many faces I have known
Into the abyss memories wane
Falling through the flashbacks
Of our souls...

...................................­...­...............

O­h ionic sky above
Let loose your naughty rain
Crash your clouds in thunder
White lightening flash in vain
Hydrate this thirsty dryness
Plaguing my barren glands
Set forth her winds a blowing
From where sweet love began

......................................­­...............

B­lizzards, tornadoes, hurricanes
and typhoons
The Mother Nature of me
wants to stir the storms of you
My deepest desires dwelling inside my mind
Hitting my heart like thunder and lightning
Sparks intensified
Walking on clouds dreaming of you
Spinning in whirlwinds my teardrops of truth’s
Catch me for I’m falling from heaven above
With the wants of kissing your angel lips of love

.......................................­...................­­..­.........

Flower of the morning dew
My gods approve of only you
Wisdom of my sins ascend
Guide my wonder to your ends
To where the storms begin

......................................­...................­­...­.........

A mighty volcano burning deep down within
Raging passion swirling a cyclone of sins
Drenched in a downpour of lust
An eruption of showers quenching our thirst
Changing the atmosphere as our bodies collide
The binding of our hearts together
forever entwined
Infinite our love boundless by time
For I am Yours and You are mine

...................................­...­...............

Between us
Facing you
Reflecting
Onto me
Everything
You do…

There was magic in the air
And a gleam in every eye
As they sang aloud in harmony
In good cheer and good pride
But there was nothing there for me
I was just passing by

The wonders of all ages
The highest of all heights
A baby in a manger
Come to turn their wrong to right
Me I was outside getting ******
Wouldn’t even answer my phone

As if an angel down from heaven
Come to bless this holy night
An outreach to sick and blind
And all poor in sight
And so I hid my eyes
And pretended not to see
For there’s nothing I could relate to
My gift is being free…

Velvety roses so pleasing to the senses
Convey such messages as apologies and love
The aroma of angels in blue blurry skies
Stardust, rainbows and dreams from above

To brighten your new day
With magic and laughter
A spectrum of colors
So brilliantly captured

A life refreshed
Each moment within
May the blessings of new days
On this day begin

"Compromise"
Superimposed to make it fit
A bitter wine still we sip
And waste away in drunken slumber
The heart is weak and prone to blunder

All this arguing weighs a ton
Callously tired my heart grows numb
Her intolerance ringing in my ear
I drink my wine and disappear....

Somewhere
In a twisted
Loop of time
  Separate from yesterday
We were left behind
Popping in
Mostly out
Of sight and mind
A whispering shout
Echoing rhymes
Mere memories
Imprinted strong
Desperation thrives
In the early dawn

When real were things
Larger than soul
Mightier where misfits
Dared to roll
To bitter end
And back again
Inside of cave
Where meaning descend
In darker places
We all have been

And so we put
Our two cents in...

They take me a fool
because of my morals compass.
And still I fear their paths.
I don’t need to search any further to know the cosmic math!
I use to pretend that all was real, I’ve taken my spin on the karmic wheel.
Comfortably the wheel has slowed and now my heart beats strong with all I know.
With all I’ve learned but not enough, I gather my strength when life gets rough.
See through my eyes, open your mind, dig a little deeper in this spiritual rhyme..

Aesthetics visualized
Dissected and processed
Non-corporeal to physical
Infinite particles vibrating
In unfathomable patterns
Disappearing, reappearing
Momentarily stored
In biographic memory
And finally set free
Onto the canvas
of reality

Those sweet small words
Warm my blood to ink
Yours are like cold fingertips
Underneath my sheets

Daring maze
That pretty face
Impressions of beauty
Tender gender Grace
Poetically positioned
Upon the vague venue
Of your HP page

Short burst
Of Interrupted trust
Built our walls
As it must

Yet
Before you leave
If I could insist
I would beg the words
That describe your kiss
That fills my heart
With silent moans
Sweet lovely creature
Where do you roam
....

Eva Ives
Dark sunk eyes
She loves a pretty face
Which dream are you
Sweet lady blue
Her heavy heart
  Beats gay...

Eva Ives
Hidden in lies
The creatures
That she keeps
All shall be told
In the grim tales of old
  The nightmares she let seep...

Into my room
Under a quaint T.V. moon
Her passion pulls me in
Oh Sweet Eva Ives
In the distance of night
  Evil shall rise again ...

Are you still the same person
as you were back then?
That demon on your chain
no longer can..
All your DNA
has fallen behind!
Do you actually possess
that same state of mind?
Have you learned to forgive
are you angry less?
What’s left to your life
if you pass the test?

High in my sky
She shines divine
I smile knowing
This day is mine

Her ray of hope
Devoured the night
Releasing me from
The perpetual fight

Blessed are my shadows
They're clearly a sign
Out of the wilderness
A new piece of mind

In the coldest of days
In the darkest of nights
A simple display
A new breath on life

Irrelevant when we consider
That which is hidden from our sight
When I was just a young boy
I prayed with all my might
Now when I hear a whispering
In my head or in the wind
Fear no longer rules me
No, I don’t believe you can

Fear forged from experience
Like the memory of a burn
Worthy to avoid the lesson learned

But fear of the unknown
Is but a stranger on the phone
Chill bumps climb up the back
Of the child home alone

Candidates for sainthood
Caught up in god's test
Open up your heart
And you'll fear less and less

Rewards are here and now
When you ease a child's pain
Tear down the walls of self-righteousness
Or cast your love in vain...

The world ran me down
And then ran me over
I may never see straight
I may never be sober
Yet
Cheers to you
I wish you the best
Love is a maze
Life is a test
Be well as you travel
The worlds that you know
Beyond the shadows
Life takes it's toll!

Sugar is harmfully addictive
but imagine going without.
A taste of bittersweet chocolate melting in your mouth.
But look a little deeper processed in your bread, hidden sugars in every box and bottle that you’re fed.
Mailodextrin the silver bullet of death, they sprinkle it on your potato chips and they hide it in your dips! Processed and re-processed till the sugar has been refined, many American eats 3 pounds of sugar a week and of that fact they’re blind.
Insulin levels suffer as the diabetics take their dope, another box of ice cream, another cherry Coke.

Pharmaceutical, healthcare and insurance profiting..
A sudden stop by McDonald’s on the way to Burger King.

We reach the polar opposite
Our emotions learn to conform
Cold days grow longer
And shorter as they warm

Dreams get lost
New ones found
We slowly move forward
With every leap and bound

And in the end
What remains shall ascend
Far beyond our ability
To comprehend...

Take me away
With the music
That you play
Take me away
Oh beautiful lie...
Hide me away
From the jokers
In this play
Hide me away
With your lines...
Take me away
Even stars
Can never stay
Take me away
With the night...

As the wind
Blew her skirt up
There was so
Much more to see

I never new
Our government
Could be so ****
  ******...

Rungs on the ladder
Where my life began
I talked with God
I rarely sinned
Just a troubled child's
Imaginary friend
Yet I turned to God
The self comfort within

When I turned
Young man
I searched again
In every church and bible
To find my old friend
I searched at the Buddha
Zen and then Tao
Deepak Chopra
Wasn't my style

Science was my nightmare
It made perfect sense
So I turned to philosophy
Now I'm on the fence

Yet how could a young child
Ever have known
That all those miracles
Were mere tricks of the souls...

Theories of existence
We carry to the grave
Where the laws of the living
Are left in dismay

Our limited state of knowing
Is purely subjective at best
The ultimate may never be known
A theory so many detest

Fortunately logic dictates
It’s all the way up
And all the way down
Entropy has two arrows
These quantum theories
Do confound…

I dreamt of you again last night
As so many times before
Again I held you oh so tight
I could have never loved you more

Again I tried to make you stay
I was never quite that strong
Again you turned and walked away
I often wondered what went wrong

Together we made a commitment
To death do us part
But again I lost you before dawn
And again you broke my heart...

If I only had the words
That flowed like all the best
I’d tie you in a knot
of my grandiloquence!

She bound my soul in the frozen tundra
A thousand years I lay waste
My ship and crew had long since perished
My guardian angel without a trace

Frostbitten bitter arctic memories
Flee the howling changing wind
As she cast eyes on the nearest star
To steal the fire held within

Days of our youth freeze then crumble
Innocence fading shortly dies
Remainders of our icy palace
And a heart deceived in frozen lies

I pity her now as my soul thaws
To a world where warmth is in season
Yet there’s always a shiver when I remember
How quickly love changed to treason

Fascinating how we can live
Holding on tightly to the past
If our memories serve us well
Perhaps it profits us to make them last
Memories of love and laughter
Some of tragedies and fear
All collected by our senses
The things we see, feel and hear

Driven by a common motivation
We seek relationships unending
The love of parents for their children
Is far beyond comprehending
And so the joy we share today
Are memories I'll hold forevermore
Cause the memories I have of you
Are the ones I most adore

If I could only shift
There has to be a better reality of me
Simply
Set the quantum computations
The electrons are in all realities at once
Why are we stuck in this version
Of the universe?

We exist in a worried ideology
Clinging to a state of safety
Our understanding is fabricated
Shaped to comfortably fit
These simple consciousness
Even death we camouflaged in bliss

Few awake
to attempt to defined these miseries
To glimpses the quantum mechanics
of it all
Forsaking blind faith
in exchange for the unlimited cosmic
experience.

Strutting like a rooster
In the hen house of love
Crowing and a pecking
At a pigeon then a dove

Spurs *****
Feathers flying
I struck and stuck
A duck just lying

Fertile are the eggs
My girls tend to lay
Let them hatch
Or eat them
With some bacon
If you crave

My meat no longer tender
Unlike the farmers pig
They won't eat me for dinner
And so I get to live

Strutting in this farm yard
I surely have the life
****-a-do-doe-do
I crow
With all my might!!
..........................

This is my strength
It don't belong to anyone else
No one carried me through Hell
They simply placed me on a shelve

These are my veins
Sending life force to my fist
Those are my claw marks
Ripped from Heaven's List

This is my heart
My love weighs a ton
And it's stronger on it's own
When it's all said and done
...

Forgetful mindedness
And a feeling of dread
Suffocating poetic thoughts
Upon my bed

Morning words
My poetic views
Write them down
Break the rules

Every word
Every rhyme
Every passion of my mind
Written down
Line by line
Written down
And
Lost in time
....................

A Travel Alert
Has been issued
For the Travelers
Of The Earth

Quite unfriendly
The world views
These inhabitants
Have given birth

Condition High
All Travelers hide
Take shelter
From the storm

Our children rest
In weary arms
As fear becomes
Their norm
...

Inconclusive the evidence presented
Behind a smile a doubt remains
I shrug my shoulders
And shed my conviction
Judgments of absolution
For now abstain

Exhausting are the questions
That just cannot be known
The ceiling of thinking
Is far below the soul

Yet wash it all over me
The legends and the myths
The folklore of my ancestors
The euphoric magical gifts

The goddesses
Who restore balance
The gods
Who direct our flights
My atheist heart can't dismisse
Such possibilities
At the end of life...

Likable the devil's role
As the ruler of the meek
Who abandoned hell
Where once he fell
Left his Mark
Upon the freaks
The wicked lie
Behind his eyes
Where the Mighty
Falls to ghost
I would never
Not abandon life
And no one
  Shall suffer most...

There upon their slumbering beds
The dreamers lost in dreams
I could never wake you up
Before the gathering

So wait for me a lifetime through
Familiar souls entwined
I shall always find you
Beyond the other side
...

Shadows are the part of us
that refuse to grow.
We need to integrate them back
neatly in stow.
........

Raddled by my rhyming words
Her rusted cage I shook
I'm quite sure it struck a nerve
Underneath she left a book
Bla, bla, bla she made no sence
As she frantically spoke her gripe
Some times you have to flush
When there's far to much to wipe...

Infinite are the possibilities
Of the things one might forget
Yet I could have sworn I held you tight
In a dream before we met...

God, why are you so paranoid?

In the views of hindsight
Suffering extends
Should have just let it go
The victim within

Love and wonder
Beyond hope
You gave your all
It’s how we cope

They wither on
And leave you
The ones that once
Held you tight
You are but
The black sheep
In a hierarchical
Flight!

I posses a lust
For things I know
Should never ever be
I hide these feeling
Beneath my smile
As my shameful
Demons flee

I'm sure at this time
You have your doubts
That's why
I wouldn't ever
Want to be found out

  Unlike the man
In the trench coat
I take a completely
Different approach
And so...
This is all that
I'll expose
A shadow of
My lustful soul
.............................

We are the creators
of our own creation’s
a manifestation
by manipulation…
Let us shine together
in a loving array
we have the power
to reform the clay!

Swirling thoughts  
Come to me
Wickedly spiraling
The rage
Choking my memories
In an
Attempt to express
Who is to blame
For my blemishes

Then I remember
I am perfect the way I am.
Another song
To serenade my ego!
