I’ll be your light when times fall upon tragic dark
I’ll be that bright, mindful blinding, magic spark

All other senses are now supremely heightened
No more fences, finally Free to feel enlightened

I’ll be the mighty river to lift your heavy burden
The Eternal life giver, sacred water to be cured in

All sins washed away, as an angel sounds a horn
Signaling the change that you are Forever reborn
You get it? See it’s just a little quick sick biblical **** ya dig?

I lack toes on my feet from a farm accident
See I used to milk cows just to pay the rent
But machines took over when I was spent
Then fell on my feet for a nice settlement

The fat lady sang,and the cows came home
The bell was rang, and ants eloped to roam
Then they crawled into your hotel bedding
Everyone just loves a destination wedding

Cried so many days, over milk that’s spilt
How many ways, can you deal with guilt
Wondering what could have been built
Like a poker player going on full Tilt

Read into this what you may old sport
How many ways can a gymnast contort?
How many lines can a finance man snort?
Are we all just sailors looking for a port?

I won’t tolerate lactose and allergic to Soy
Playing sports with no toes I’ve lost the joy
The world could always use more coaches
But For now I’ll sleep, so Buenas Noches
Goodnight? Hey how about this... great night

You can try and try to predict the weather
We all still end up completely lost together

I’ll be you’re umbrella for the rain
Your shelter from the hurricane
You’ll be the needle for my vein
Wax me off when I need to wain

Roulette me play the slots with Tenacious
Diligence untie your knots with Gracious
Blissfulness spreads to the ignorant Spaces
As your blackjacks crack their pocket Aces

That’s life,but sometimes we need a Joker
To remind the table that it’s not just Poker

We Arrived just on time but came too soon
Howling at the earth standing onthe moon
Alone as one we shall never know solitude
We must change now, or we’re all *******
It’s getting hot in here, so donate all your clothes

I’ve had vibrant red, sun bleached dreams
Ever since I was lost at Sea
Completely empty, I’ve reached extremes
No human should ever be
Vivid Memories of now dried up streams
On this island for an eternity
Right when things fall apart at the seams
Hope springs a letter to me

I uncorked the bottle and began to read:
“A Scar let’s us feel what it’s like to bleed
And a Scar reminds us what we truly need
But now forget the past, and plant this seed”

A solitary grain of hope gifted me an epiphany
As I now believe, you must get lost to truly see
Perspective says that life is really just mentality
So I planted that mystery, and waited patiently

I dozed off in the shade, the sun began to fade  
I dreamt in red again, about an apple tree of sin
That Shiny red bliss, crisp inviting perfect kiss
Classic true romance, Eden Garden slow dance

I awoke from the rain, to see a sprout was born
Emotions overcame, like angry woman’s scorn
Written like a book from Nathaniel Hawthorne
I can barely look, please god make it a unicorn!

So I can fly far away, and forget every other day
Wanderlust and roam, Heaven send me home
One last breath, before I finally reach my death
But something succulent penetrates my Nose
As my eyes gaze upon a Perfect Scarlet Rose
life is but a window in time, and it passes by ever so briefly, así que hablaré tu lengua materna y espero verte mientras aún somos jóvenes

Absolutely addicted to your incipient Existence
I Crave the Elusive Allay yet fall victim 2 Evade
The Perfect words to say, yet fear my debts Paid
Life’s way, conflicted by the allure of Resistance

Your blank page lays open, Naked and Afraid
Yearning with desperate need to feel my Ink
Learning how to separate, Study how to Sink
Into the pen to bleed again, and poetry is Made

And along we tend to neglect Time passing By
As a log burns with filthy wet dreams of Paper
Water logged until it yearns to become Vapor
Analog sits in a file cabinet, “I don’t wanna Die”

Did you, too succumb? Neck pain, Head Down
Digital screen to thumb, matrix ones and zeros
Did you know the world’s running out of heros?
No more written Fables or Non Fictions
Just more smitten Labels and Addictions
Did you tell us to Swim, knowing we’d Drown?
Look up..... it could be a person... you know of the human kind

I'm constantly chasing waterfalls against TLC's wishes,
Searching for the sirens and  hunting their deadly kisses
Ravishingly intertwined with the ravenous divine just like it was a business  
Drunken dreams of the open road while they wash my clothes and all the dishes
Meanwhile Delmar was a toad, but got squashed now he sleeps with the fishes
Cheers to the Vicious Vixens who are the misses that could never ever truly fix us
Go to sleep little babeeeyyy

Right when you think things couldn’t be worse
Write what you think about the fractal universe

Geometry so sacred and divinely intertwined
Poetry is like hatred met love, and they dined

Focus on your hands and all your life’s lines
As lucky fate stands to bargain down fines
Traverse open lands avoiding all the mines
As God reprimands us for ignoring the signs

We all wear masks just to simply save Face
Wearing from tasks, as we Fall from Grace
So we numb the pain, addicted to the Chase
Tomorrow’s Acid rain, ruining Today’s Place

Time, Well...spent will never lead your soul lost
As enlightenment will always be worth the cost

You’re never too late to fill a hole that’s hollow
So Start to meditate and all the rest will follow
The path to righteousness is wrong at least twice a day to an unbroken clock’s dismay
