Change
Change ~~~~~ What will the future think of us? Assuming we somehow survive. Will they say, can you imagine, they believed anything like that? If love as contagious as violence, would we stand carriers at a wall, to then shout, Ready, Aim, Fire? Does violence burn love to ash? Some say that love conquers all, […]
Or Not
Or Not ~~~~~ X marks the spot, cross your heart, hope to die. Swear it’s here where your ex was, or was not. Your ex, until he or she got burned, was cross. Cross the street and join me, make no excuse. Tightly woven patterns, some might be of use. Can we be sure, as these […]
To Laugh and Cry
To Laugh and Cry ~~~~~ I would be the blazing lantern to guide us, when darkness comes. Not the stubby candle that melts away to nothing, to be soon gone. Nothing left, no thought, no song. I would be the compass to lead us, If I knew where we were in bright sunlight, saw the […]
Simply This
Simply This ~~~~~ Could I withstand a thousand blows, while they brought me to my knees? No matter if they’re real, metaphoric; it’s all the same, to me, if you please. It’s not my body which must survive but my spark of spirit carried within. We see people who suffer every sin, far greater than […]
More Than
More Than ~~~~~ How will we ever know what is right, Despite what our hierophants preach? How do we keep our fiery hope alight? Our answer’s unknown, but we reach. If a word, god, didn’t exist, now, ever, I cannot imagine the need to coin one. This may prove wrong, yet I’m clever. At night […]

Pieces and Parts
Pieces and Parts ~~~~~ I will play one last piece, each time, before I depart. Until I take the stage anew. I will sit a while in peace, and choose my new part. I’ve been me; could I be you? ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, […]
By Your Choices
By Your Choices ~~~~~ I grasp my time, my life, my being, Like the blind men and the elephant. What I perceive not what I’m seeing. It may be my fire’s just on my pants. Chasing after truth by concocting lies, Mystic brews that obscure and reveal. All my victories, failures and my tries, Perchance […]
Crazy Poet
Crazy Poet ~~~~~ I know this crazy poet. he lives inside my head. About language, he know it. At least, that’s what he said. Rhyme, meter, he can show it. Words flow from my pen instead. ~~~~~ Peace is Purpose, Nonviolence is Strength, Diversity is Unity, Empathy is Empowerment ~~~~~ Please, leave a comment and […]
