Poem
today I exist as a vapor then I am no more some may equate logic for fear that brings nothing near my chest is heavy and my pulse is setting in yesterday was such an easy game we used to play awe but then let's face it it's quite easier today for I am not myself these day for all i know I might by two there's room enough in store to view yet I'm in a bind I'm likewise in a haze for who I am from scene to scene yet luck's provision is preverse it seems to work more in reverse if things are better they'll be worse in quite a while hey penny, one penny, tri penny, three nature seldom ever fails to most surprisingly provide an undisclosing posing side at one's dismay one needs to pray Shelter me in a newer way to begin won't you help me my friend through mountains of madness amidst all its sadness we can dig deeper then ever before lest I implore another opened door getting caught up in the middle playing a game of second fiddle most of life seems to be a riddle Shelter me in through the storms of life amidst each added spice as if were on a roller coaster don't stop me now but I may need a lawyer as we get a little older we can grow to succumb to the world's cloister like a hen with a rooster gets your pets spayed and nuetered. we are only here for a short time so sound the alarm inside we hide behind four walls that seal caught up in a fix in every hope as you hold your crucifix there's danger up ahead yet we lie in bed in the walking dead a face full of lead falling apart at the seams in the evil schemes shelter me in so I can breath always got something up my sleeve shadows block the vortex of the sun lit resolution we are out searching for the latest solution in barbed wire fences always second glances we often will scamble as Felix was played by Tony Randall its hard to handle living in a society that's blind you see but as a poet friend I'm making sweet lasting memories languished over the onslaught of feelings inside your the tool of the government and industry to its all a will for power nothing more lest I simply implore the fate for so much more yet for what? shelter me in out in the playing field of delegation as polticians embrace a resonable solution in the newspaper as shelter lies dormant in its beckoning call to the know it all out in his ivory tower its in the hour of power bask in the vast expanse between space and time John Lennon said it best, "Happiness is a lone gun momma bang bang shoot shoot". we got thick headed polticians that can't even reason suicide is on the rise people are running away to hide abortion on demand when will we ever live to understand no one has a voice anymore no one understands until today we got every good reason to bow our heads to pray a mass hysteria in our land as we text our way through the day no one breaks bread anymore no one bothers to pray yet it ought not be this way on some sorted time delay you still make fun of the gay instead of embracing them as they are our family lines being drawn in the sand when will we ever live to understand Shelter me in my friend with whom I can depend people are making choices there maybe something blowing in the wind for Dylan was right on that one building bridges that go across party lines in their most unique affliation philosophically filled up with sullen brevity and everything that does the heavy deed we often will hide behind the false hidden garb of compromise taking heed to twisted lies Shelter me in so that I may live it all over once again my dearly beloved friend may you understand.
