Full Moon

February 13th 2014

I had a full moon in my sign,

So I read it as a sign,

That my entire body spirit and soul,

Was vibrating for a **** reason, and

God - no matter how many times

He has ****** me - he has his

God **** Reasons. He isn’t even

Selfish enough to call them his

Own. That’s my god, that my mind

 

That my big gig my spirit in the sky.

 

It’s not nothing that is happening.

If I am regretting, opening

My chakras, and consciousness

That’s too bad because, there is no going

Back, nor forward, nor present

Because I presently believe.

And let me make it clear I no longer believe

in regret.

 

Miles away from here,

I will never question where I have to go.

A body disconnected from a mind disconnected

From a soul, teeters in the balance of regret

Because trying to get fit is not fitting in

Fit has been inhibition

Latent, and lamented

With sin.

 

Simply put, make healthy decisions.

 

Speak freely, and confessions

Are easy to make.

My entire life I have felt like a loser

A Bukowski like ****** -with no 'hoosier'

Like talents. So if tales are not spoken

About you when you die

remember

Like Bukowski’s one of us down here

He wouldn’t be sober either;

Am I  the tourist/hitchhiker

That turns Hunter S. Thompson

Down on a hit of ether?

 

I am wise not with wisdom but wise with beer.

 

Health is about balance, and that balance

Is my edge.

 

Either which way, I admire my brain.

I didn’t sit down planning to write

this and if I could explain I would

put it in a book.

Look,

 

If I publish anything soon I would be

Just as worried

As you are?

 

Would I pigeon hole and sewer

My lifelong friends or would I

Expose deep dark secrets

That could de-rail my “Hoosier” inspired

Career?

I fear yes.

But I also fear no-

Body would read them.

 

My trash masterpiece

Will be self published

And hidden in discount book bins

Across North America

With a sticker on it reading

“This is free for a reason”

And its not because I don’t need

money to survive,

but because I do need love

to do so.
