As I sit waiting in the storm, My car buffeted by the wind And pedestrians leaning At impossible angles Those few who dare Perambulate I watch the ferry that will Carry me back approach The dock at a crazy offset With wind driven waves Smashing in spite Against its side, Outrageous weather And red travel warnings Everywhere yet this ship Will sail and on it will I be With my car and with my son Travelling anyway, And such is my life In many ways, For there are many waves Hurled against me And the winds that set against Are huge, But ships are safe alongside The Dock And I would be if I would But acquiesce But ships were not built For harbour's shelter But rather for the open sea, And therein lies the issue, Ships should brave The oceans swell And so the same For me

ILL IN ME
Grow up, get real It's the way the cookie crumbles, deal with, who says life is a bed of Roses I am what I am and you are what you are we didn't make ourselves, these things happen go blame your parents if you must vent, your father first if he wasn't lust crazed and extracting his little winkle that time you wouldn't now sit here a fool of hate doing early troll duty some are privileged and some are not, **** it up it's been like that from time immemorial, boys we can't all be winners with all we want not even the Queen has everything I would try and be the best I can be rather then waking up to know some fool somewhere annoys me enough to become a pathetic troll Jezz, its bad enough being a peasant without having to go to bed obsessed and wake up obsessed day in day out I dread to think what its doing to you all and no paid hols or a Merc to whizz you for a lovely Chinese meal like I will be doing later today with a peasant ***** in comfort and style

Everybody out.......
Without an authority, you are your own authority. But yet what do you perceive? Right and wrong? Truth and false?  So can you observe within yourself? Did you observe anything before ever observing what is inside of yourself, or was it afterwards? what floats inside of you is only what floats outside of you: is this not how you come to being? Are you truly finding yourself? Or what are you finding about yourself? (Your opinion is only a reflection of the exterior from yourself; But that is beyond the point.) If there truly is not an authority, and if you are the authority; how can anything exist from you alone? know that what you perceive isn’t from you. It is only within your consciousness. Truly you only know that you exist because of what exists outside of your existence; although you are not proven to exist without the absence of your existence. Whatever you trust in isn’t from you; and only faith can be what you believe in. So whatever you put your faith in it can only be of your own knowings, but you cannot have faith in yourself alone.

find yourself
Flesh folded until untangibly recognized as the same being it was violently ripped like thunder from the clouds as ephemeral mountains in the sky, mark the moments of now, while the sun shines through past lives, just now reaching us, millions of changes later, I am hear, you are deaf, hooking lines, sinking lore, silencing flashing of rain, on the off chance one might pain.

Recognized ripped clouds in the sky, one might be in pain
~It's time to let everything go and get my mindset right Thoughts and confusion consistently put up a fight ~Overcoming the past and focusing on the present Life's obstacles make sure they leave their dent ~Strength and willpower will lead me through my quest It is only in the end everyone will see I'm doing my best ~The pride i'll possess from doing it all alone This will truly show the people I love how I've grown ~This path I'm on will never show what I'm truly capable of I don't want to look down on my family from the heavens above ~I don't want anyone to stand by me if they don't feel I am capable I'll just have to show them that I'm ready and able ~I need to show myself how much I love being in my own skin It's only then that I can tell myself ultimately I'm going to win ~The sickness in the end isn't worth the pain I want to be prepared for anything, shine or rain
