We were never
in control
just cunning enough
to fool ourselves
While the planet
spins on
nudging us gently
to move mindfully
in this space
no more
cars or stock
portfolios
or brutality  
just the clear air
of kindness and simplicity
the new way of life.
it is not ours to grasp
and hold in monumental panic
for what is ours is unseen
it cannot be tangible
but immutable
peace is already here
for you on the cusp
between something
and nothing
You were born
untethered from
the greed of men

who would
usurp all the good in
the land for their
great fortune

Let that agenda wane
into the wind
that you may be
human again

Evolve into
the quiet dance
for you are in
the company
of trees

return to your
birthright and love
what is good
and unhurried

The world is so vast
I want to explore it all
With someone I love
Nights are for
lullabies and the lonely
for naked moons
and spaceships
that hover then
disappear at a glance
the night is for
the learned
going inward
to soul force
It's exhilarating
to be in a world
without knowing what
will come next
for the night is
filled with ghosts
and the peace of growth
but most of all the night
brings us to be
ourselves free...

Burn out

Im sitting here with my heart
right up in my throat
and I swallow,
These last few days have just been so low
and I don’t know if I have the strength
that I need to climb out right now
I keep digging myself deeper
and fill my hole with liquid courage
to make me forget that I have none
This is just another episode to ride out
but man, I’m so f*cking tired of crashing
Please let this pain pass soon.

Up to 60% of the human body is water.
I must have much more than that,
Because it keeps on leaking
Out of my eyes.
