Somewhere there has to be
a window left ajar
an unlocked door
a spaceship bound for Mars

beyond these crystallized values
these ceilings of sophistication
beyond these solid grounds
of miss interpretations

I can not fit in
these ranks reject my views
no one wants to know
the reality I can prove
no…
not within this human zoo
……..

Let the Weeping Willow weep
there can be no resolve
in her swinging swaying feats
your words may falter
so just let her sleep
her rest will come
when Her Maker shall she meet
within my heart
she shall always skip a beat
so let the Weeping Willow weep
……………………

The truth is…
I am penniless
I live in a small barn
in my girlfriends back yard
no running water
she lets me use her hose
I run her farm for my stay
I do own a F-150 2010 truck
she keep insurance on it for me
I spent most of my adult life in prison
people fear ex-convicts
so I have limited friends

I am the less of us
I can’t afford to donate money to Hellopoetry

Did you think differently?
well I am rich
I have love
it is all I care about
I am 59 in great health
I lift weights, run and study daily

I love my life
Do you?

I am not my story
the narrator past
obviously his suffering
was never mean to last

no one bullied me
they helped me forged a man
into a lover of life
a healer of the land

I have no regrets
no blame to invest
I’d actually like to thank
the universe for this test

we didn’t come from our parents
we were only passing through
I’d like to thank them both
for the hell that they once knew

I am not a story
trapped within a book
I am a poet
the past is what it took!

My body's getting older
I'm timeless trapped inside
the voices in my mind
I'm beginning to recognize

a balance in my nature
flipped upon my path
bridging troubled waters
freeclimbing broken backs

wishes are forgotten
in the changing turning tides
wonders wearily settle
on a blind and tired ride

lovers move on, the connect stays
I know her there, beyond the matrix stage

travelers fall from nowhere
drawn by bright parades
textures faith provides
an sole my soul conveys
..............................

My soul’s
running raw
tonight
my love’s
an open sore
I’m drowning
in these depths
despite
my buoyant heart
needs more

She here to share
this world with me
our momentary
dream
she here
to fill my emptiness
she’s my one
and only
queen

I hold her tight
all through the night
a sedentary sigh
I’ll rise at light
to be the one
who's worries
carries
on my mind

Okay!
I agree
the earth is in
dire need
scared and blemishes
from sea to sea
a major facelift
would set the earth free
from the likes
of you and me!
Save the whales
save the trees
bring back paradise
bring back the bees
okay
I agree!

God is the light
of the human soul
peering into the darkness
of our heart’s
……….

Drunken philosophers
cannot be educated
simply hold your tongue
while their intoxicated
tomorrow morning
they’ll be momentarily wise
wondering why
they feel dead inside!
to many drink
and we’re on the brinks
trying to tell
the world what to think
oh how
these wet brain sinks!

Off to the witches
I carry my fears
Conjured from the dawn
Cast into thin air
Repetitive devotion
Water in eternal motion
   Dear Gaya
Please hold me here…
