SIMPLICITY
Simplicity
The best
A prior
No complications.
Difficulty yields suffering
Suffering shrinks you
Flexibility is attainable through simplicity.
Simplicity
Very plain
A necessity
No complains
Always smooth
Steady and rapid growth in any situation.
Simplicity
The glory of expression
Without stress or strain
It's not too much
Neither too little
Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication.

Convictions
Convictions

Song Lyrics
Maybe our convictions are convictions after all,
They lock us in a prison in our minds.
They keep us from living in this moment.
We’re out of synchronicity---out of present time.
Convicted by convictions, we are prisoners, prisoners.
Living in the past we will never be free
Until we breakout, until

Nothing Could Make Me Stay
I can understand why my pal has given
up on this garage sorting. it is only 9:30
and I feel like we've been working on this
for ten hours. I did not even get here until 8.
I am giving up right now.
Nothing could make me stay.
This is a big mess,
and I doubt I am that much help
anyway.
Oh,

Some People But Not Me
Some people find comfort in living the same day
Every day doing what they did yesterday in the same way.
I know a man who ate a ham sandwich with cheese plain
No condiments every day and cut exactly the same
I thrive on change. Daily seek out something new.
Learning racquetball kept me entertained in

Mistake Made Right
Some get things right the first time.
Most of us do not.
Mistake. Mistake.
A rubber cake.
Okay, it is not edible, but if we roll it into balls, can we bounce it?
Bounce. Bounce. Bounce.
What did you do wrong? My mother asks me.
If I knew that, I would be able to make a fortune.
Nine bouncy balls out of a

Fluidity and Flexibility
Evoking the oak tree with a
Thank you for the stupendous day
So simple, yet, so profound
No need to do anything extraordinary
Because the universe resides simply
With white snowfall sanitizing my mind
Your imagination working like magic field birds
Warbling as you go
Let's create the countdown to amazing places together
Be my beloved even when your heart aches
Because we reside on

Flexibility
i used to think i wasn't flexible
but i'm beginning to see
that i am bending over backwards
just to placate you
my spine is in ruins
my muscles have all torn
i sit here in front of you as nothing more
than a useless pile of thoughts and emotions
what else do you want from me?
was my body not enough?
here is my
