Showing respect although you're disrespected 
Being humble isn't something most practice in daily life

rainfall on roses, petals fall

...I grew a rose from cuttings
pinched from a loved one's plot,
watered at ground-level, not at the top.
Dung and mulch kept well away, 
from stems lest their collars rot.
In time, it grew buds tha...

Cornerstone In The Building

...The cornerstone turned the corner
reading a map without
ever looking back
A nomad with knapsack in tow
sowed seeds without 
worrying if they'd

Headless embrace an easy life a lift down the seventh floor to a foyer and doors that open automatically a café serves one from cooking peeling potatoes and ready-mad...

The Floor And Me

Even when my body is sore. 
From feeling panic throughout the night. 
So I am tense and tight. 
When I wake in the morning, I could eat breakfast.

Zombies And Chores

...If they were zombies.
Who have no brains so they don’t care about what I’ve turned into…
Maybe they’d be more likely, 
To come back for me.

Dare To Claim

...Questing the perfect scenario,
Desiring for heights,
Wanted to drown in the success seas of magnifico life,


From childhood to infinity,
Accelerate the feelings of success  towards insanity,

We forget, days go by
We forget to gaze at sky

We are so earth-bound, non-birds
We see level, ground level, as words
Made for learning, learning theory, that is
Bound in text, texting, ...

Learning Young

...Learning Young

From back when I was 7 and 8, 
When candy bars cost 5 cents,
