May 2014
cold winter rain brings pain to my numb body
for pain brings warmth and warmth brings life
there is no life without pain
there is no life without suffering
for without these we cannot experience joy
all these feelings are temporary
as if life
so if we cannot fully embrace these feelings
we cannot fully experience life
give up your tailored shoes for homemade moccasins
give up your malls for goodwills
burn down your offices
and ignite your bonfires
ignore warnings and use what brings you happiness
for legal and illegal are all societal views
what nature gives us should be available for the masses
it should be the key to unlock the gates of imagination
I do not believe in meditation
because it separates the mind from the body
these two go hand in hand
without one, we can't enjoy the other
*** is the purest form of pleasure
so why should it be subdued?
we came into this world naked and free
why should this stop after we leave the womb?
these are all just thoughts
ideas and dreams
but can they not be considered?
I hope not for my name to be remembered
I hope not for eternal life
I only hope my stories can tell the stories
of a thousand others
a thousand other broken kids who have given up hope on society
but not on the world
for the world is nature
and it is the only form of joy our race hasn't put a price tag on
our race isn't white
our race isn't black
or anything in between
it is only human
as are we.
