Travelling to the outside
Of in
A world contained
Of nothing
By no one
To examine
Perhaps the genius of snails
One cannot
Encapsulate
A life
Too real
For some

Turn The Tables

Dawn
Quiet(ish)
Streets are
Empty(ish)
Just an old fox heading home after a good night
Howling laugh
Those cats didn't now what hit them
Yeah

Green umbrella
Broken apparition
Misty sun
Revealing emptiness
j a connor Jun 2023
I fly on thoughts to the distant horizon
All before is gone
History
Not mine
I am leaving too late to enjoy what is left
Awake in a reality not of my choosing
But is it a dream
Is it real life
Is it me

Changes
j a connor Jul 2021
The air has been ****** from the sky
The seas can't cry
The shark hunts the lion
The path of life is flying
Contradictions of a world unknown
The past visits through the twilight zone
My heart beats faster
breathing gets harder
WHAT'S GOING ON    WHAT IS GOING ON
j a connor Mar 2024
a window is a gap in the wall
glass can fill the hole
nothing comes in
nothing goes out
without the glass
we can make a difference
j a connor Jul 2023
The choices of the past
Have led to strange futures
Not all has been as foretold
Even fixing things can have consequences
Be careful what you wish for
Albeit in another life time
Predictions are unclear when fear is the catalyst

Invasion Postponed
j a connor Jun 2023
Let us begin
Once upon a time on the third rock from the sun
Confusion was afoot
Identity unsure
Purpose unclear
All in all quite mixed up
As an outsider I observed with sympathetic curiosity
Conclusion
Perhaps better left alone until they manage to understand themselves
No rush
Maybe another thousand years
j a connor Oct 2022
Beneath the colours of the butterfly wing
A brighter world awaits the coming of the king
Wish it all past
Make light clean shade
This realm is alive
A stranger hidden glade
For this world exists but not as it seems
To reach it alone rely on your dreams
The others who are there will follow you true
As sleep passes by and life is anew

Line In The Sand
j a connor Sep 2022
This is reality
The summer
Only an escape
Yeah
Summer living
Some just existing
Where do we hope to be
Always looking to escape
Wanting for something better
Will we grasp it when it comes
Or let it slip through
Ahh
Here comes the wind again
Stirring the sand
Clearing the footprints

lining up with the horizontal blinds to create a morning rainbow

The Small Stuff

Time is a barrier to progress
It allows procrastination
Major changes take too long
The small things seem more relevant
Performed in an instant
Through them all is achievable

Keyboard Anxiety
j a connor Oct 2023
To sit down and write
                                       using pen and paper
a feeling of creation
                    
                the words

                                                                                          ?
the handwriting illegible unless studied                ? art ?
                                                                                          ?
thoughts of this particular time
passing
          may be forgotten soon

                                                     replaced with the boring
must do this
                      must do that        routine

The Unfolding
j a connor Sep 2022
Sometimes people and society don’t allow us to be who we are
We have to comply with unwritten traditions
Mass insecurity tries to hold back individual growth
You cannot do this
You cannot do that
It may affect the lives of others
(But)
Life affects the path of all on a daily basis
No assistance is required
Follow our individual drive and travel together
Work with what we have
Instead of against
Lose our fear of reliance
Experience the event
