hastily hastily
quickness
fast fast
my soul rushes
towards the unknown
towards speed

Time you *******
you robbed me
from my youth
and sped
too fast through my todays
-
my now is too short
my past is too blurry
my future.. too ..
now...

When I see you,
near,
or far,
I always quicken my steps,
the eager to be closer brings rapidity to the fore;
the seeking fast
wanting more.

My heart bleeds
For the trees
We cut
For us
For metro and highways
To join the global race
Of frantic

Helpless I throw
These words into space
Pray for natures’s grace
and
Forgiveness

I wonder
if our children’s children’s children
Will tell their
children’s children’s children

Once upon a time on Earth
There were trees
birds and bumble bees

You can see them even now
In the prehistoric 2-D movies
They are cutting gorgeous old trees everywhere in our city to make a brand new metro to help ease traffic - but it is absolutely heart breaking to see it.

The World spins so fast that we can’t feel it
This planet we are standing on is moving at 1000 miles an hour
But we can’t feel it
It’s a constant rate of movement, no speeding up and no slowing down
Which is why we can’t feel it
The earth is just spinning,
and we are just a passenger
Moving throughout space on a giant flying rock
No control over where we will end up
No control over where this rock is going
Yet we just keep moving forward
Launching ourselves at 1000 miles per hour
Straight around the sun
Which seems to be a good motto for life
We should launch ourselves at whatever we want to do at full force
1000 miles per hour
Straight around the sun
Moving us forward
Step by step
Mile by mile
Year by precious year
The earth is proof that we can,
No
We will, make it through this
We will push through and live our best lives
We will.

I haven’t got time to be wasting time;
More determined than ever to live this life right.
No more mistakes, no chance of letting up.
I am a rocket of burning gasoline;
Light me up and I will fly above.
My one way ticket proves there is no return,
To the man I used to be;
I have left him behind, with memories of her.


I have got to live faster, learn faster,
Learn how to become better;
More important now, than ever.
It could be forever.
I am no longer knocking on opportunities door,
I am running through the walls,
Like a wrecking ball; destiny calls.
I was smashed into oblivion,
Caught every single piece.
Rearranged it all before I hit the ground,
Then I offered you my peace.
I rearrange the words and put them out from me again.
I rewrote the script, going to make it my own way.
Get a better job that pays.
Find a better way of life somehow.
Find a woman as I am running up into the clouds.


Horizon calls so I leap into the sky.
Like a bullet train, I am moving faster than ever.
Going to find myself a way,
To find a better word – Zephyr.


I want to be amazing, so that is what I have to be.
Be good to me and I’ll keep it friendly.
Stand in my way or try to hold me back,
I’ll fold the edges of the universe and draw a new map.
Time to be through the stars immediately.
Time travel; space monkey.
Are you following me?  
Then hold on tight because I have got to zoom!

Go faster!  


Going to charge into the future,
With a trail of spoken words left in my wake.
Words that mattered then, matter now;
Why else would I say it?  For my sake?
No more holding back, open mind, open eyes,
Life is a one way track, like a train on rails,
With no stops en route;
I break!
Through the sound barrier with a sonic the hedgehog boom!
And I shake the room, into view,
Waking up statues.
Pick an expression and stick with it.
I ain’t coming back anytime soon.
Just passing through, from me to you,
I bid you adieu.


Step one, step two,
On through the thousandth step,
Like an ostrich running,
In a sun-bright morning,
I’ll burst into view and take your breath away,
I’ll pass right through; I’ll see you again someday,
Like a blur of a man that you think you recognize,
But that man ain’t me anymore;
I have disappeared…goodbye.


I have evolved constantly, in every way;
A new page, a fresh face, a new day.
Everything is getting better man.
Peace, love and empathy ain’t just going away.


I have no time to say it better,
Better, better change;
Improve the person you are.
A woman with class, intelligence, beauty
And one fine…laugh.  Ha, ha.
See I want the best that I can have
And if that means looking back at the history of me,
Then okay; I’ll find a way, maybe.
Adjust the car mirror,
I only know my freeway to loving you.
Stars in my head and the motor city in my heart,
My feet are spinning faster than anybody ever knew.


I leap over hurdles
And with a three step hop,
I am forever dodging curveballs,
With a dot, dot, dot.


I am running home,
Got to get there soon,
So put on Ok Go!
For the one moment and enjoy the show;
I ain’t got anything better to do.


I ain’t got time to make a video of science;
I’m writing word after word, after word…you should try it.
I know one day, this will all stop…

But I ain’t done all this writing yet,
So I will carry on;
‘til the break of dawn when I see my home
My eagle-eyes see her smiling,
Waiting for me,
With me;
She tells me “you have no need to be alone.”


I will raise my kids to know write from songs,
‘til I have no words left inside my head,
Until the day I forget.

I will find a way for them to see…
When love is a reality,
Life becomes a dream.

Traveling by the
speed of light just to bend time
and space I came to

cross over unknown
galaxies for reaching your fond
hex-black singularity.
