Spread like wild fire
Scorching the land
An unstoppable force
On an unpredictable course
Into the soil
Into the ground we walk
Unpredictable with its saturation
Around the globe unto every nation
The water we drink
The food we eat
Infected now with some obscure disease
Bringing the world and it's power
To it's begging knees
No pain and suffering
No rash no fever
Just dizzy spells and blurred vision
As the citizens of earth
Endure this transition
Away from the solace of their solitude
Away from the modern mayhem and its debilitating attitude
Into a no mans land
A land of peace , of an intolerance towards
Anymore of intolerable rewards
Shrouded in no mystery
A life like no mythology
The power of unity
Void of vanity
Peace love freedom for all
It's in the air we breathe
It's natures call

Your lament
Is my love spent
Dreams like jigsaws
My actions , no applause
Anger vented
Reality fragmented
No more to worry
No more to frown
For all that once was
Has already left town
Never again
Shall paths cross
As we reel
Into our own loss

I've drifted far
Dug a deep scar
Flanked in treason
No rhyme , no reason
My name a blur
My speech a slur
The foundations tremble
The demons assemble
I am lost
I am free
I am lost
and the devil is in me
Naked
Impaled
No fear to fall
Awake
Aware
As nature did call

It is true that we all have an identity and it is true that it has been with us since birth,
It is also true to say that we as certain and specific individuals have chosen to ignore disregard and change our supposed identity in exchange for one that is perhaps only coherent to them and their thoughts
It's a “ chicken and egg” argument, what came first , the body or the mind?
Did consciousness slowly evolve as it was gently dipped or violently thrown into an abandoned society, or was a new-born childs greatest gift an unseen preordained fabrication of it's own existence

The world around, this is the mind at large
So how can you be judge and jury
When you're fostering an identity
Of which you are not in charge
To be what you desire
Is the answer for one
But to be what you are
Is the answer for all
And if it is a battle
Between body and mind you are torn
Then the simplicity
Is not an irrational irregularity
It's the power of reason to understand
That the mind of constraints came after
The physical was born
It is the eyes that see
And a mind that you follow blindly
Knowledge at birth
Wisdom with age

They won't sell what you want
They won't advertise what you need
Just a desire ,a corruptive drive
To take you for a fool and make your pocket bleed
I don't have greed
Or a vision to feed
My success is not based
On how my career does succeed
Happy tunes happy smiles and happy happiness
Tools of a trade that seeks to impress
To impose an ideal
Tell you how to feel
How to live
How to breathe
And in what God now
You need to believe
Strapped on a freight train
On a vertical take off , jet fighting plane
To a distant time of the honourable individual
Who holds nothing but free will
On their journey through swallowing no bitter pill

I am pristine
I am pathetic
I am pointless

My love commanded
My love reprimanded
My love finally destroyed

The dream dissolved
The dream was gone
The dream was what??

I am pointless
I am pathetic
I am happy
I am free

No constraints
No marriage to restrict
No divorce with pain to inflict

No need to please
No you cannot dangle and tease
I owe you nothing
And you owe me, even less

Pointless with reason
Pathetic to the point of perfection
But freedom is the answer
And not this façade, this fake reflection

I have nothing but me and my soul
There is no one to who I pay a toll
Pathetic and pointless??
Painless autonomy,
Sublime in my sanctuary
