Study sleepy water
Build bricks in your showers
Try to find some balanced ground

Streets crawl like rivers
Buddha is the new potassium
Black is the new fast track

Try to find some Hometown

Tennis Courts are tea tables
              the places we sit and think
      Inside the box

Leave your scars/mistakes/All the pieces of you that are plates
                                       Fragile, easy to break
In the car, locked, just like your keys

Stand on rooftops with umbrellas
             Waiting for Meteorites        
Find some Peace of Mind

Or Open & Close them
  Like S.O.S
And signal for Help

Build houses like Sandcastles
To realize time is eternal
           But you aren't

Keep your childhood like a locket

You aren't a puppet
      Socks are

Find some confidence
      And let sheep be for counting only

Death by Daydream
I hate how you broke me down
Only to build me up
Just so you could break me down once again

I hate how you convinced me to open up to you when I was shy
Only to give you what you wanted from me
And then tell me to be ashamed for being so exposed

I hate how you would ask me what’s wrong
Only to pretend to listen as I would cry
And then tell me off for thinking I have it harder than others

I hate how you would tell me you loved me
Only for me to find out that you have another lover
And then to get angry with me when I would try to move on

I hate how I wasted my time loving you unconditionally
In hopes that you would love me too
Only to realize after eight months that you don’t deserve me

Is zero a number?
Is numb a feeling?
Is comatose slumber?
Is sleep now healing?

Is why a question?
Is try a verb?
When you can't shake
The ***** and herb?

Is static music?
Is silence screaming?
Is nighttime cursed...

is daytime dreaming?

For those battling addiction...

It's not something you "give up"
It's something you LET GO.

the life in the body thrives on realization,
of the path the minds workings define
what our hands and eyes seek
our destiny set into motion
while the heart lingers to reveal
its joy, cares and feelings
the opportunity of growth  our path the rewards  
hope dreams spontaneity of life teachings
revealing our full understanding of desires
our nature yearning to be released
from the grip of Earth survival
to live in spirit of love to know
our future to hold power over our destiny
to rule by love,power or greed to inflict our seeds
onto others demanding our way of being
this our chosen life released onto the living realm
Earth in the  milky-way galaxy
traveling 1 million miles each and every day
thru the Universe a collection of elements
when joined produce life a meaning
protect the planet let us thrive
like the busy bees we are
rule your being you only know what you know
thrive.....gjmars 5/12

I was outside a bar one night, smoking a loaned cigarette and looking at the stars. Next to me was an old man on a stoop, smoking too. He asked me what was one my mind, and I said love.

"It's stupid, the way we think sometimes" I said.

He got up from his stair, and joined me by the street side, looking up at the stars while he took a deep drag, paused for a moment, then exhaled and walked towards the night.

"It's stupid to think."

— The End —
