Untittled

a veil darkens my eyes
as the somber sweet slumber washes over me
the dream of lucid living
the dream of reality,reality of knowing
the day that all is possible
that faith is and will be unquestioned
and that fear of the unknown
is knowing that the unknown won't hurt
living forever...

Nature

Nature

I sit at my table
talk to myself but every one listens
I tell myself that a stranger is not only no one
but someone who would hear my chanting,
with trees dropping their knowledge
to the ground for the earth to learn
what floats through the air,
streams beg for enlightenment
animals sip cool teachings
while standing on slippery shores,
the wind teaches everything in its easy way
it flows by and we all breath it in,
so fresh out on the edge of no-where

On the Way

On the Way

8th street bums sitting
on the corner of 7th heaven,
when a little boy asks
"What's ya doin here?"

sidewalk is cracked
on the way up to downtown
little kids playing on steps
laughing, crying
skinned up knees hurt
band aid helps though,

All you need is a little lovin

Struggle

Struggle

Beep
Bash
clak clak clak
crash
down on the floor
mirror of memories
in little fragments
staring at me in tiny
pieces
Pisces
fish in a bowl
gulp air out of no-where
flapping,flopping on the floor
left alone to die
