Driving through a place
One I've never known-
To tell me yes or no
I just don't choose to listen

I don't care anymore
Caring is for people who
Have something left inside
I'm done, I'm going to

Shoot on through these streets
Watch the trees turn into fragments
Of light green and brownish swirls
I'm not turning around

There is no back, just forth
I go to these dementions -which
Some may dream about
But sleep, there is none here

The wild world it spins about
Without wheels to train a route
And yes, I love it so I go
But never ask to where I'm going

I'm just going to Gun it
Then I'll find out where it stops

I
write
about
that
which
I
do
not
understand,
in
hopes
that
maybe­
I'll
come
close
to
understanding.

the stars come out to play

and i miss you
It is alienation, divided and conquered,

That hatred virus seeping in

The eon fires of ancestry and agonies

burning deepest

Emotions like chaos, having no concern but heat...

Lost control trying to keep it quiet

There is no logic in taking arms

Or causing harm for causes of ghosts a'hollarin'

No reason to justify the same ole

Same ole spite

Of a time when man made kings of white,

And fiery skin of people of the sun

Denied...

To this day, the curse carries even unto us

The children of every nation

Carried on one colored bus

The bright hue of morning

Knowing

there is no color or denying

the sound of laughter,

                            Even to blind dragons

Are brilliant Suns bursting to life,

In the void of cold vacuums:

All the times we waste /

Arguing over ... Despite...  InEquality and action...

The war with empty nothing

The entropy of disease

The prophesy of meaningless beings

Creating experience of artificiality;

And our Humanity of mistaken identities.

I thought we were as

Miracles made spontaneous

Combustion from nothing...?

What have we erected

But another place

Laid waste?


In God's name we prey...

now i


     want to fall in love
Alot. Has happen
Times been hard
Love was lost
Gone, as the wind
My heart froze
Like a lake in winter.
But I am smarter now
Love was never lost it was fake
Now I have stopped the hate
I looked the wrong way
It was not love it was, sin
Now I can see the sun
Ones again.
I now know love is real
Real as the sun shines
As the flowers bloom
As night and day.
A am a new man.
No longer a boy

she constantly knew more
than she was willing to say
her eyes always gave her away

i reached for her
as she stared out
into the distance

she asked me
"if you knew now
what you'll know then
would you still do it all again?"

i held her hand and said
"no matter what the future brings
i'll always choose the very same thing."

she smiled like she understood
and we embraced.
i don't think she truly believed me
and it's been years since i've seen her face.
