it all ends the same

all THE HEROES!

the wildly abused children gather round

at the "center"
there is no-one there!

---

we are so cowardly

we stand for nothing!

and

we only "stand" for a little while

--

children!

steel your resolve!

we are frauds!

RUN FROM HERE!

If was a long night

It was

Death or Life

••

We dream
We
Open our hearts and    ---   find


We find THE SOUL

or NOT

•

We take the CHILD HOME

or

Watch him die

••

I see you

EVERYONE

•

We are on the brink

World war 3

Or

Total
Human slavery

We

Look for romance or drugs

•    •

A long long night

We decide if we dare to make decisions

Or

Simply -- stand by

••

I see you

EVERYONE

••

The child sees
Wondering if you will simply

Watch him die

THIS IS ALL GETTING TOO MUCH !

TOO STALE !  TOO BORING !

TOO EVIL !  TOO STIFLING !

WE GOT TO BREAK OUT !

GO A NEW WAY !

WE GOT TO CHANGE !

WHAT CAN WE DO TO RENEW OURSELVES !!

She pondered long and hard

WELL

she finally said

I BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT TOO

WHAT I THINK IS

MAYBE WE SHOULD START HAVING **** ***

He is the one who says

NOW !

---  /// ---

Gentle footsteps thru the night

The gentle rain !

But there are ugly visions between the stars

••

WE ARE GREATER THAN THESE !

•

We

We are the

Saints

•

Come from out your paralyzingly thoughts

Unto the Magic Moment

being released

ME AND GOD !

We are loosed

And with you here too ?

Ain't a thing needs be done won't be done

and then the thousand years.........
........
we may speak of the GREAT ONENESS
but

it is a beaten and broken and alien place

seeking a love that is not here

speaking of a faith in something that
we do not, cannot, understand

for a GREAT BETRAYAL
darkens the light

which exists now only in eachother

for a GREAT BETRAYAL
clouds all sight

except for the love we feel
for eachother

we may find a form of happiness
we may dance and sing in the moonlight
but only for a little while

for a GREAT BETRAYAL
stalks all life

and , of course,
the unborn child

and we all are ONE WITH
THE UNBORN CHILD

if we are a human being

the ragged urchin angel
child

in the streets of poetry

he stumbles and bumbles and
tries to serve life

hoping you will join him there.

Wild babe the cosmos !

Just what the hell it is ?

But let's get up off our ***

And let the Will be done !

It's such a Wilde Beaste !

So it sure should be fun !

Ain't gonna be no Sadie Hawkins day !

All the wild stallions too are gonna play !

Only one thing is certain to remain

And it's that

CHANGE

STAY THE SAME

If you don't believe me just ask

Venusoul7

The same applies

As to being in

he come from over there

someone gonna live
or someone gonna die

warriors are gathered
somethin really matters

aint no lie

the center of "the field"
no-one gonna yield

or try

BUT

they smile and embrace
turn and walk off from "that place"

oh my

they look at US with scorn
as somethin rank unborn

not alive

------

he come from over there
now he walkin way from here

like we's a lie

someone gonna live
someone gonna die

someone gonna live
someone gonna die

someone gonna live
someone gonna die

( his EYE!)

it seems so very dishonorable
to simply "live"
.
the tiny tiny boat upon the waters
heading for the Fall

the screaming children!
all mankind is screaming!

gathering strength
who?
(we or the storm?)

living simply with dignity

wisely

well

all together now

pettiness
kills

and we are sick of and from each other
about everything

Tired poets!

Let alone show!

Let alone share!

Thieving politicians!

Love poems filled with hatred and self pity!

Digging stale ideas from the garbage dump!

While GOD calls your name

In this the hour of PURE human need

Play with penises and razor blades!

Dream of all you may remember

Walk again the mighty river

Ain't it time ta use yer noodle ?

Lay them ole illusions down !

THE CHILD IS DYIN

such a very
..................................long
road

winding towards the western hills

soft cloud poems
and blue skies
.............

child!....stay awake!
say ..
...................."so long"

and be gone

"here" is so very
far away
from any  sense of "grace"

and the western hills
may still contain

"refuge"
and a gentle maid


surrounded by
herbs and ancient wisdom
and a soul divine

.....

it's been so long....

longing just to feel you

everywhere
anywhere

creating peace

aint no-one

"here"---------

--------------"here"

done got sent
somewhere's else

and erryone went with it

--------

people aint be talkin
no more

afraid a bein heard
that's it!

The unholy *****


//

I read the love poems & I think

WHY WOULD ANYONE LOVE THIS GIRL ?

& you read

Poem after poem

And it's all the same

//

The girl saying

YOU SHOULD LOVE  ME CAUSE

I LOVE YOU !

then you get the most disgusting

Thing ever written

ITS JUST YOU AND ME BABY

AGAINST THE WORLD  !!

as the puny poets of hello poetry

Swoon with ignorance & stupidity

& feel safe cause they've rendered reality

Unto perpetual kindergarten interaction

//

Yeah

Ya **** up and get hooked up with

Some girl like this some time

//

So

ya dump her at the truck stop

And drive on


and hear her smarmy babbling

In your mind

Within Angel Song

The child befriends Death

Winds across Vast Spaces

No-one comes
---

Tiny moment

Isolation breeds shame

Winds across Vast Spaces

The Child falls

"They **** and enslave
The child who falls down"

He remembers

Struggles to his feet

The Child befriends Death

Caint go THERE no mo'

Ain't no love there no how

••

We ran together the fields

We swam naked
The stream

••

Then we grew up like fools

••

we sold the mountains of pure soul

For the praise of false friends

••

We spoke of understanding past deeds

...... Of finally choosing

To make amends

••

Then we played the same games

Ended up in shame -- again

••

Caint go there -- no mo'

Ain't no love there -- no how

••

Try to find that open field

Try to swim that stream again

Try to find you

And ask you
To

Come with me

To climb that MOUTAIN to our soul

To simply become a human being

I hope that we are not too late

Oh god! I hope it's not too late

an the day turns colors
and they go from green to red

from blue to red

from gentleness
to blood
......

we were meant to be
human here

we are not killers
we are lovers
we are not killers

but we ****
cause they tell us to

an we don't want them
mad at us

the colors turn

from any color
from every color

to yellow

and then to  red
(as blood)

Ridin the wild el-train

Thru the mad war songs

//

The freight train under the midnight moon

Drifting thru the wino seranade

Looking for the dawn of peace

//

We of the fallen angel race

Looking to save face

Before the child's eye

He we left to die

He who knows of our disgrace

//

Riding the freight train west

Through the wino seranade

Drifting images of men

Who survive

//

We of the wild el - train

We of the war for the city streets

We of the American lie

We of the dying child

//

We ride the freight train into the night

The midnight moon is in the sky

Drifting thru the wino seranade

Looking for the dawn of peace

//

I always knew you would  be here

I knew I find you someday

I knew I just  needed me some faith

I knew you never were far away

We ride the freight train into the dawn

Made to suffer for our transgressions

Naked raw lust

We don't really ---- touch

We only bed each other for a while

Stars fall and die

To touch each other one last time

and the sacred child beyond death
(and Death itself
and Eternity)

just a gentle sense of "yourself" will do
and the truth

roamed the alleys and streets
roamed the alleys and streets with joy
for the sake of the tiny girl

all sense of true love is gone
all sense  of sacredness is gone
