This path of mine the avenue
literally miles from nowhere
nothing but "trees lakes and pine,"
the sweet sent of your smooth hair,
my heart beating fast, you holding
my hands and letting me dream, "aware."
Your raspy voice your glittery eyes,
I'd fear for nothing, to worry or care,
"you'll be good to me" I'm "now your
bunny" let me be free before I'm lost
for all eternity. It's just this life is
So **** short, I'd never imagined
a hell that could be worse than
never getting to be your sort.

None can write a story
more vibrant, more in touch
with love than the human heart,
brimming with a form of spirit
that emits a glow not unlike the
flame does, small, still the fire it starts.
Unpopular as my ideal may seem,
not unlike an endless stream,
we would choose to seek further,
deeper, though we may suffer,
we will not stop until we've found
a machine that is "greater" than any
emotion or natural love around.

The truth is...*
I fall upon the ground
A seedling in your grass
Whether I willed or not
To come knocking again
And find myself at a loss
For not giving up was my
Plan and I still can never
Win a battle no one but
I would have even fought.
Most of my wishes, hopes and dreams are all too impossible to achieve. And you're too in denial that you are the reason, I can't trust you, I can't depend on you. You're not even going to start heading my way. This is why I'm ******* as it is...

Indeed! All is a sea of flames...*

Her will be done, her kingdom come,
On earth as it is in nature, blessed is her
Only divine beauty. Strong her motherly
Hands which hold you, in being nurtured.
If only the will of what we call love
Could see how we lose control, turn away,
From the actual truth, because we could
Have saved ourself a rainy day.
But in this chaos man will learn, he can't
Be something bigger than the earth,
He can't defend us all from loss
That has existed since the dawn of time,
Always and forever in denial of his pride.

Thick neck
Big fat gut
Hide of a mule
Packing dog
"Venomous lie"
Digging for fuel
Oil stained hands
Animals in sight
Shed with a lamp
Bag over shoulder
A military tool
Stick out the thumb
A lost soul fool
Don't "go black"
Or you'll be a ***.

All is vanity*

Denied, all under a veil of secrecy,
Big waves that are hidden in the
Darkness of night, still turn boats,
Capsized by the enormous vast
Presence that no one sees but still
In essence we feel we're "safer," guided
By the way of the darkest truths light.

It controls each person, to hide unique
Truths with our own vague, hidden lie,
Make sure we all know it's there,
My how we stumble upon the nail
In the dark, whilst cleaning our visible
Skins surface of debris. It's all you see,
The "devil" is that cessation of this pain,
This suffering foot that bleeds.

You turn the corner and find yourself
Unawares in the darkness of this light,
Hidden underneath your cotton enclosure,
It will lead you in "earnest," it will show you the way,
It will empty your purse of quarters, it will make
Sure the suns light can never find you in the fullness of
Natures own "un-important" borders.

I knew an old man who swallowed a peach,
A peach is a pepper a pepper a peach, a peach is a fruit,
My what a toot to have eaten such fruit, he swallowed the
Pepper to follow the peach but I don't
Know why he swallowed the peach,
Let's make some pie!

I knew an old man who swallowed a plum,
A plum is a cherry a cherry a plum, a plum is a fruit,
My what a toot to have eaten such fruit, he swallowed the
Cherry to follow the plum but I don't
Know why he swallowed the plum,
Let's make some pie!

He swallowed 'em whole...! Gasp...
