The only war
Is the one in your head
In a world with no sides
We're only fighting ourselves
The revolution is not ending this one
But making sure no war
Ever happens again
Fight the last good fight
The one to unite
Within and Without
Us, no them
Being the tallest tree means
Getting hit by all the lightning
Thou shalt command only thyself
Your will expression of god
The only divine inside
When Zarathustra speaks
Do not listen.
In the silence
The words will open up
Leave behind the money god
**** the man god
And leave behind the last man
Burn down the pantheon
Occupy the space with humanity
With all the pitfalls
That lead upwards
Slay the doubts and in the evil
Find an overcoming
Step over bridges,
Do not bother
Swim deep
And never come back
From down under
The nonbeliever is the most religious
Giving in to belief
On the loosing side
Of a battle without a war
Trapped behind
All the banter played out loud
Repentance is suicide
Do not sacrifice
You will not gain
If god is dead,
Perfection is too
Good for you
****!
****!
Listen to my command!
Destroy!
Destroy!
Don't listen to my words!
Hang on to in between,
And listen to the quiet
Crucifixion is for the weak
With no world to inherent
The meek must
Give the world to themselves  
Laugh, laugh!
As you cross over
The dead bodies
And the wishers,
But not the takers
Love at the wrong time
And hate at the right,
Are the greatest steps
To going over
Never a quiet moment
The sky hangs low
Heavy with static
The silence presses upon ears
And weighs upon souls
Souls, the meeting of the in and out
Of this world and
Everything else
The line in the sand
Also dividing but
Not changing what it is
Just sand under the division
Jump from the clouds
To mountaintops
Slide to the bottom to find truth
Forget everything you've been told
Or told yourself
And feel it
On your feet.
Last night 

She accidentally

Walked to her balcony 

And looked outside 

She saw her soul 

Wandering 

Being sabotaged 

By demonic creatures 

Molested by those unholy beings 

But all she could do was 

Stand and stare 

Scrutinise and regret 

Because then she realised

She let it go

7 years ago

When she 

Questioned her existence 

And acted in an immoral way.
You'd find me
By the riverside
Moving along with the moon
Staring at those
Celestial bodies
Which seem to
Deport me to
An unknown place
Where I belong
Where I should be
The Orion looking down upon me
While I travel
Back in time
And confabulate
With pagan
Question the existence of
Humans
And denounce the
World as a farce
Create a different place
With only those
Animals sacred to Apollo
Those swans and ravens
And Cicadas
And remain.

It's a Funny Thing
the ebb and flow of our (cowardly) lives,
as if death is not waiting to drown us in eternal oblivion.
And yet...
Maybe we are wiser than we know,
for perhaps something (in the core) of our soul
knows
that death may be a brother, and
we truly shall live on,
one way or another.

Naked, well almost; I laid there
I could feel the other girl's back cold against my   skin-
-my imperfectly un-tanned skin
Instead, giving me freckles for just the heck of it
It felt as if the sun was gently kissing every small tan dot on my back, while being held under in an ice bath
But not because of my dearest by my side, no
Because of the dearest back home
Because of the doubts I set aside in the act of selfish desires
But you are truly my only one
& just as the riots were about to start in the Cafeteria

The Comet came crashing down into the Parking Lot

Right onto Jimmy Johnson's car!

••

That's when she lifted up her skirt & said to me

"I love you!
Take me now!"

••


The teacher started  screaming!

"Reality is just a tee vee show!

••

I'm  not sure what she meant

••

The SWAT team came racing into the Cafeteria killing everyone

••

Oh well!

••

I slipped between the cracks of perception & now here I am

••

We ALL KNEW this was happening but didn't care



I'm never gonna vote again!

••

Gonna get me a job as an under-taker

& get real
there is no sleep for tired eyes
as chance gives way to circumstance
backed into a corner, truth explodes
tainting all that ever was
coloring honesty with doubt
in hues of broken dreams

i-
swallowed a bunch of love seeds
and they grew into a few different shapes
i -
knew not what was what or how was how
i-
tended a few and the rest fell apart
i-
shared the bounty
trying to spread the blossoms that fell
i-
learnt again
that not everyone likes the smell of flowers
but perhaps
noticed
they
needed them the most
i-
don't mind playing the fool
for learned truths are not easy to come by
and
i-
sunk the battleship
in favor of having an artificial coral reef
so that
i-
can whisper secrets to those who don't mind stopping to smell the underwater daises
.
trenches are deep
the ocean is unexplored
save for 5% on these close close undulating shores
i wonder what is at the heart of hearts?
Here dead we lie
Because we did not choose
To live and shame the land
From which we sprung.

Life, to be sure,
Is nothing much to lose,
But young men think it is,
And we were young.
