Try to remember
But my feelings can't know for sure
Tried to reach out
But it's gone

Lucky stars in your eyes
I am walking the cow

I really don't know how I came here
I really don't know why I'm staying here
Oh oh oh...
I am walking the cow

Tried to point my finger
But the wind was blowing me around
In circles
Circles

Lucky stars in your eyes
I am walking the cow

I really don't know what I have to hear
I really don't know what I have to care
Oh oh oh...
I am walking the cow

As you Please
Rip my head from my shoulders
Tare me to pieces and rearrange my caging
This is NOT my reality
I am something different than you see

I will fly when I am finished here
Far away from your critique and mis-read
None of what you say penetrates
My knowledge and heart held above this carcass

Scoff, Gasp, assume you are the victor
Your Ignorance, your obvious weakness
Blinds you to the tinge of Empathy
But I will forgive and forget you...

Stephen
A sweet,sweet boy
You are real
and full of heart
A nice guy

You give & give, expecting the same
Trudging through
You try too hard

If you would simply deflate, relax...
Take some breath
Some insights come easier

Every moment
Un-needing of category
Let your soul sink
In a field

Watch the tall grass sway
Realize your being is on the Exterior
Of this body of stress

I often stray
to protect...
from self-depricating, destruction of being

You are Brilliant

See that in Life you Must adhere a password
Your emotions
Granting access only those deserving
Take less seriously those misusers

Laugh Loudly
To loosen their shackles

Many Vultures will swoop and pick
But you are far from spoiled
They cannot feed on what they cannot catch

Hasten your thoughts and steps
But travel with sturdy Grace

You Will surpass this
You will find Respect
But you must prepare your mind and heart

Inspiration
On the daily Daily I am craving
The good stuff
To get me through the day
Without profession
I turn to habit

Maybe I should call on a friend
My good ole' Pusher(s)
Which to call
which to call

Maybe Johnny
Mr. Cash
he's always got the stuff
A lift from any plateau

Maybe something more mellow or calm
Someone to cry the Blues too
To stroll along with, to Muddy up
Those Waters

Anything to get me through

When I Paint
When I paint, I let go
dropping all expectation
without control
I use my knowledge
I use my soul

There is no wrong turn
I am sure of every movement
playing and loving each color
I blend and spray, dab and scratch
To reveal all truths

My emotions and convictions
Scream Out
Defying controls and lines
I am free
I am Free

My paints are keys
releasing me

The Culture of No Culture
The Culture of No culture
It's an empty road to walk
With lines, and shapes
Neatly paved. Oh There are park benches to sit
But most are taken by tired travelers
Resting or sleeping away the warm hours

Prospects of Artfulness
Words bring Structure in an untamed Mind
Paint lends Color to a gray-scaled Time
Now music, Music we'll save for a Rainy Day
Hiding in corners of Sorrow where old Scars Lay

I'll use My Words, A sword of Golden mold
My paintings
To Divulge my Intentions Untold

In Music I lead

The Greatest of movement
with it, Climb on a Mount
Singing calm to the Torment

Awaken profuse Concordance
That we Might break these
False Coercions

Mr. Muse
I'd rush to see him, heart thumping in my chest
To Be the first to reach that door
Alone for seconds before...

His face, knowing
Carved brows and stature
Assuring light, of majesty

Out of breath even with at full rest
A rosed complexion
I could not Vex

How would I ever express
An adoration so esteemed
Of purest Nature
*and deepest dream
A fifteen year heartache. I've yet to shake the torture of never getting to verbally express

Move Along
Move Along my deer
You're Not to stay
I'm wading through
Another Day

Move Along my deer
You're not My type
I'm searching for
A fruit more Ripe

Watch me leave my Pet
I've stayed too long
I'll flee your side
Before the Dawn

Watch me leave my Pet
You'd never Do
A dance
Which I would hold you to

An Inevitable Commingling
Disjoining this coterie
dissolves it's fragments
in Unison

Dispersal to all borders
with hasty charge
Contracted to bide

Consenting inside a concord
Of Visceral culpability
to Re-Integrate

Incontrovertibly

— The End —
