I Am Carrying a Hammer

When i dance 
Mind occupied 
Health in stow 
Future sings bright

I wait and see
All the rejection comes to me
Young women in full flight 

When i sit in the dark
Meditation deepens the groove
Who am I to choose?

I dash and mingle 
The channels elevate and space
Time to energy's bind

When I stand and think
Cars flashing bright
My temples contract
And the culture deceives 

But people are
As people are
The pulse continues 
The planet spins
All is right 
Between I and might
