My Poem
I became to understand
That I lived in
Some type
Of organic simulation
Its so random
And so fun
And with each
New day
I see the sun
I listen to podcasts
Here or there
Now I will sit
Upon my
Wee little chair
My folding chair
At the park
I may sit there
Until the dark
I live inside
A computer matrix
It is plain to see
Nothing to strive for
There is just you and me
Human beings we
Do what we do
FIrst comes 12, then 1, then 2
This cycle repeats
Itself again and again
I am not looking to win
Empty yourself of desire
And you will see
The world is an empty place
And this emptiness suits me
Bodies walking in and out
Of doors
Want more money?
They promise more and more
And with more money
Comes more stress
I think I would like
Less and less
Less and less
Let's take
Many things away
Food, water, and shelter
To make it through the day
Then one day
This country
Got *******
And everyone got in
A terrible moo
The value of paper money
Went almost entirely away
People did not know how
To make it through the day
These silly people
Were just little pawns
And there I was
Sitting in the park
I think I saw a chirping lark
I had a match
I made a spark
I got my pan out of my car
Gathered some kindling
It won't go far
But just enough
To grill
These cakes
I mixed the batter
Yummy food it makes
Then the pancakes
Went in my little tum
And with a grin
I did say, "yum!"
Oh here comes
My friend
The holy man
Of Hastings Ranch
I waved as he walked past
It was just by chance
