looking for you
drifts through deeper hues
paradigm of blues

rain pours down
no umbrella round
puddle sounds

that was a long time ago
back in the good old days
before we had slipped so
before the rot and decay
life before the undertow
swept humanity away

now adrift alone
seeking answers long untold
we slowly sink below

tides recede
hopes left behind
abandoned

trails ahead
age old beaten paths
blaze your own

sunrise
quiet rising tides
peace inside

days end
twilight shadows loom
longer than life

such pain
no pill could ****
but will

central banker games
culling humans monies gained
pleasure dealing pain

bursts red ripe
passions slow simmer
explodes

steady rain
dampens any joy
but mine

old aspen fell
lost an old time friend
gained new view

errant souls
wander lost forever
purgatory

misty mirror lake
mountains fairest reflection
blushing pink blossoms

black blue
night day
bruised

You wear holy jeans
peacocking around
like you earned them

howling for a fight
waiting upon moonlit night
demons inside

one moment
among millions
meeting you
altered courses
aligned stars

cool winds blow
nervous flocks gather
to ride south

life changes
dawdles to suddeness
reality

The Gulf of Tonkin
a Capt. Morrison affair
to progress their war agenda
Certainly Intelligence Assets
All deployed igniting flower power
counter culture psuedo heros
planting seeds dropping hits
warping minds driving divides
propaganda parading as progress
mind control via pop culture
manufactured art
manufactured artists
actors in the greatest act
fooling millions molding taste
whats cool?
the fool
playing you

deep within
forest mist
sounds dampen
senses defuse
silence descends
into utter
tranquility

I took a trip
my mind melded in
one universal self
where love seemed to be
the only thing

beer  bud
friday night
get right
fishin' for a buzz
before the fish rise

shrouded among clouds
epic faces rarely seen
denali peeks shine

living in fear
ghosts ghouls goblins and fools
everywhere

I lost time and didn't even miss it.
I found truth and adore it.
In time you too will find truth
and it will set you free

creepy clowns gather
inside this horror circus
orchestrating fear
upon the billions they blind
afraid to open their eyes

images sold
tell a vision
silent pied pipers
master strings
puppets along
manipulation
mass population
asleep

past history lost
blurred behind thinly veiled lies
from all searching eyes

psychedelic bloom
flora from another world
color passion blue

discarded papers
winter toils now compost piles
schools out for summer
Alice Cooper radio
blaring at the swimmin' hole

the hill opened
pouring its soul
in pools below
lost forever
only scars
remain

sunlights last delight
mind altering trip tonight
window view outside

faceless soul
all have felt invisible
until found

stolen summer
arrested on autumn winds
harbinger of cold

amidst early morn
dewy dreams accumulate
then evaporate

mankinds last message
bobbing along open seas
humanity pleas

thunderous rain died
swept into rivers roar
now crickets

family
mommas sunday roast
together

cool mountain rain
beats upon green canopies
afternoon nap

tempests rage
inside temporal lobes
thoughts tempered

mists rise
trepidations hide
serene hope shines

suffering way up
somebody turning power
people rising too

caterpillars crawl
as lifes only true motion
up followed by down
