touches from thoughts forgotten long ago
thoughts of places and experiences lived once before
earlier adventures that carved a memory into walls of your awareness
your true insight of past touches
thoughts...

mirrors in your mind create reflective thoughts
can one maintain the sensations created there
is there an escape plan somewhere within the reflection

Brian Hill - 2020 # 174

to appreciate the delusion you must understand the nightmare
comprehending what veil needs to be penetrated
piercing that veil with dignity and awareness for certainty
be confident that the delusion is not real....

The Vow

my brain will not be silent
my heart won’t skip a beat
the world is way to violent
the sun has lost its heat
what is going to take place
after it all is said and done
we need to succeed and embrace
and know that humans have won
we all retain the power
to stop this mayhem now
it will take a worldly shower
it will take mankind's vow....

looking ahead towards the end is intoxicating
knowing that you are able to conquer obstacles previously out of reach
hurdles, that before, were not obtainable
what changed so that victory existed on your journey
your ideas of what could be done, can be done
your view of the end changed....

who really knows
who really understands
how is it true
or not
does the homeless person know what time it is
did the ant you stepped on feel anything
the sunset shared by millions across the globe, was it appreciated
was it valued
desert winds, stirring up the ancient sands, is it admired
is it honored
waters in the clouds, falling with raw force to the earth, is it glorified
is it
how do you know
how do you know

Brian Hill - 2020 # 168

I'm crazy about you, in that I'm sure
you set up my day so I can endure
you correct me and guide me, to take on the world
it's easier with roadmaps that aren't so ****** twirled
pretty sure I would stagger, when I walk out the door
but with your wise guidance, I'm ready for more

Flare

let's kiss the mind with some flare every day
challenge the very core of your energy by accepting all sensory input
all the visual
all the audible
all the input thrown your way
see if that doesn't leave your mind with more flare

Brian Hill - 2020 # 164

Today's words are totally mindless but not factless.
Yes indeed...

indications are that the bananas are gone
the rowdy humanoids were responsible
where did the herd come from
is immunity now futile...?
yes, we have no bananas, we have no bananas today

gaze into the glass
self-reflection is needed
what is it you sense

Brian Hill - 2020 # 161

deep concentration amazes the corrupt intellect
secrets lay in waiting as the mind deciphers the message
why do the senses allow corruption to succeed
the age-old dilemma is, well, age-old....

Brian Hill - 2020 # 160

the middle of the room glowed with such happiness
standing there was the very meaning
standing there stood THE reason for all else
uncovered and exposed to life's circumstances
was you...

The Missing

the example we should follow is missing
the need for explaining what was, and what will be, is lost
will we know the joy, of not knowing again
will hungering for the very essence of novelty have a revival
find the incomplete, and you will find the missing....

Brian Hill - 2020 # 157

tonight we listen
we listen to confused and fearless children
worldly children shrouded by what has happened to their space
surroundings so confusing and disconnected
a cycle of life, ****** upon them in all directions
which way is OUT?

Brian Hill - 2020 # 155

the icy ink flowing from my pen was cold enough for concern
the words laying down on my manuscript was not, what was in my head
it appeared to be a warning of some kind
warnings of a mad soul
a soul, living in darkness, surrounded with the brightest of colors
colors, sitting in the background of happiness, just lingering
waiting for the right time to circulate again...

Brian Hill - 2020 # 154

seconds play out as time goes on
every moment has reason
every purpose merits attention
believe in that
realize the world will cycle through
cycles, have flows and require time

there's a ghost in the wall, how do I know
there are sounds of moaning that sound like hello
the walls might be haunted by an unlikely mind
from way back in history or the future aligned
it's not at all scary, it's mostly just weird
it would be so awesome if they decide to appear
there's a ghost in my wall and I'm not really mad
it's nice to have friends in he walls of your pad....

Brian Hill - 2020 # 151

it's been so long since....
oh, how I long for the those days
swinging in the tree
hanging upside down on that big branch
waiting for the sun to go down so hide and go seek was more challenging
skateboarding with friends and riding our bikes for hours and hours
marbles were the rage and the Boulders were worth some attention
falling down and scraping our knees, shaking it off till we got home
spinning around so fast and furious that you got too dizzy and fell down
oh how I long for those days....
has it really been so looooooong?

Brian Hill - 2020 # 149

beautiful darkness stretched ahead of Its journey
the more the anguish and misery fell upon It, the better It felt
the condition, only known to It, existed for one purpose
spreading and hosting Its darkness to other unfortunates
the light of day became Its punisher
the happiness of others survived in the light
It was not ready for the light...

When my hero teaches me my lesson
And my world exists without fear
I know I can handle it all on my own
But it's nice to know that he's near

Brian Hill - 2020 # 142 e

rolling without physics and facts is our new normal
too much information
too much condescending information
two greatly misused weapons of the internet
information should never be communicated to the masses falsely
what to do, what to believe...?

Brian Hill - 2020 # 137

once in a while, the worlds in sync
the battles are forgotten and everything’s pink
experiencing this wonder will take you by surprise
don't be confused, as it flashes by your eyes
the sun and clouds, will not get in your way
the wind and the rain will dance and dance all-day
the rivers and the oceans will be swimming with life
the forests and the deserts will be blooming without strife
once in a while, the world is in sync
can't wait to see this come to pass, and then, what will we think...?

Brian Hill - 2020 # 136

2020 is a puzzle of a year
the earth’s redistribution of circumstances
beyond crazy political activity
lies expressed in so, so many manners
science was told to be productive
mankind was pushed to uncommon practices
2020 will have a special place in history...
The puzzle will have pieces in place one day

Brian Hill - 2020 # 133

It's been so so long
It's been so long since I saw
Since I saw life dance

Life dancing the bop and jitterbug
Life dancing to rock and roll
Life dancing to country and ballroom
Life dancing to anything
I'm sure we will experience the dance again

Brian Hill - 2020 # 129

I see it from my very soul
I see a love that has been there for years
your love for me has proven to be my greatest possession
a gift surpassing all things imagined

Brian Hill - 2020 # 128
For Leslie, my greatest inspiration and love 💕

can beautiful be desperate
is hopelessness the new introduction into what is next
will looking forward have a rearview into possibility
stay tuned for the next passage, into the twilight zone

Brian Hill - 2020 # 126

looking out over the vast colored carpet of flowering cactus
trying to decide where to stop and experience the moment
stunned by the amount of desert life erupting with visual excitement
just when you assume it can not get better or more exquisite
BOOM, it does....  
the DESERT is on POINT

Brian Hill - 2020 # 125

instinctively, the scorpion stung the frog
how do you stop anything from being what it is
can you bring about changes that go against individuality
personal virtues in all of us, are steadfast
be who or what you are
let others be who or what they are
swim or sting, it's who you are
be


Brian Hill - 2020 # 122

enchanting is the word
stone formations with hypnotic mystery
formations that only the mother can create
mother earth will nourish all elements she produces
hiding past creatures in ornamental rock with windswept colors
colors so exposed to the surrounding landscape
what do you see

Brian Hill - 2020 # 120

we all have a caterpillar somewhere inside
that spirit that wants, but it just can't decide
there are roadblocks and hurdles that get in the way
where will your caterpillar take you today
what will you be when the caterpillar selects
we all hope for the Monarch, DO we get, what we get

where is the end
everyone has their own
everything is included
flowing waters will find their end and last droplet
winged beasts will land one last time
clouds in the heavens will rain no more
where is the end
fish in all waters will complete their last swim
insects crawling and buzzing about will settle in at last
wheat, corn, and all plants can't take the lack of liquid
mountain peaks, rolling hills, great vast plains hear nothing
where is the end
is there an end
waters may never find that last drop
beasts of the air may never land
rain will always be
fish swimming in the waters will be there
all plants will drink in the moisture of the land
mountain peaks, rolling hills, great vast plains will be listening
we can stop the end
we ALL can stop the end...

Its Way...

nature has an assignment to wake up the seasons
seasons have their own special way this should be performed
birds chirping and singing in tune with the sun rising
annual blooming of the desert cactus and flowers
melting of the snow in higher elevations
water gaining speed down rivers and streams
waters that will fill lakes, ponds, and reservoirs
trees are regaining leaves and providing shade for the ground below
all in the name of life succession
nature has its way...

Brian Hill - 2020 # 114

the severity of the broken minds lays out in the street
in the streets covered in outrageous and unfair drama
drama drawn from within
within the information floating about in the heads of the media
off with their heads is the call from the watchers
off with their heads

Brian Hill - 2020 # 112

beheaded and lost
the world is a different place
different in all ways
