"differnce" poems
Death is nothing at all.
I have only slipped away into the next room.
I am I, and you are you.
Whatever we were to each other that we still are.
Call me by my old familiar name, speak to me in the easy way you always used.
Put no differnce into your tone, wear no forced air of solemnity or sorrow.
Laugh as we always laughed at the little jokes we had together.
Play, smile, think of me.
Pray for me.
Let my name be the household name it always was.
Let it be spoken without the shadow of a ghost in it.
Life means all it ever meant.
It is the same as it ever was.
What is death is but a negliable accident.
Why should I be out of your mind because I am out of your sight.
All is well, nothing is lost.
One brief moment and it will all be as it was before.
R.I.P Daniel,
I miss you man

What is the use of living measure by measure...
That should be some difference between life and dry goods store...
Life is like a flowing stream,
why breathe as if we're frozen in an icecream..,,
life is not lived stuck in narrow alleys..,
we need to spread our wings in open fields..,
why can't just a smile be d answer to life.??
Why can't love be the ultimate goals.??
Experince each day like its a precious gift..
What is the use of living measure by measure...
That should be some differnce between life and a dry goods store......

Dying on this earth
Spinning farther apart
The dream of unity
Lost to the vote
Of bitterness and hate
Where to find the will
To go through another day
If I could only afford the luxury
And the tax
Of a smoldering fist
And a shotgun blast
Of the heroic exit
And the sinful kiss
Of a shameless suicide
And what will divide us next
What new excuse
To spread the gap
And drop another bomb
Of disappointment
And poison
And steel
As if killing
Our children in
Needless acts of
War
After war
Wasn't a fate cruel enough
Now the future
Withers in the fist
Of greed and politics
And what are we to do
To stop the bleeding
Fear and hate
Running wild
Round and round
This earth
Driving state
And country
And mankind
To bitter distance
And unneeded tears
Who can save us
When we have failed
To learn the wisdom
Of the answers
Bob left for us
Blowin' in the wind
And If Joe is up in heaven
Would anyone bother
To listen as he strummed
On his guitar
One more protest song
About the clashing
In the streets
Under the london fog
Tom described it too perfection
As he told how Luce came home
Broken
And left his arm in his coat
Back on a coat hanger
In the middle of a
Forgotten field of war
But did any of us hear
The horror of the truth
When...
When will we put
The differnce and divisions
To their past due graves
And dream and dance
And fight
For the unity
We desperately need
When...
When will we
Finally realize
Tomorrow is a day
Too late

yes or no
positive or negative
affirmation or negation
the differnce matters
except when it doesn't
for we are
"past the point of returning"
"past the point of no return"
