people think i am lost in the essence of time
the machine in which i live makes the world change emotive colors
there are some who think that i left my smile in the bed with my personality
i am lost in a space where i sprayed febreze to aerate my comfort zone
then my left hand is observed by all the judges that study me
my left hand begins to twitch, but i remain calm and medicate myself with daydreams
within said daydreams, the beautification of being lost for the purpose of sanity maintenance awakens me
then here i am in this dumper dust reality again
there are those who believe i am invisible amongst the population of time
two cookie shakes later, i am on droopy mode when i simply reply....YOU KNOW WHAT, I'M HAPPY....
GOING MY WAY
Going my way now and always
To work, to exult or to lose,
To solace self when sorrow sways.
Only own confidence to choose.
Desired partner was not set.
Going my way now and always.
Built up family pretty- perfect.
Yet mostly life on mud and clay.
Bound to proceed as my soul says.
Lone fighter ready to march brave.
Going my way now and always.
Destiny refused me to crave.
Lone sailor had to sail own boat.
Sometimes life brightened by Sun rays.
In ebb and tide lone heart to float.
Going my way now and always.
there were yellow cats in Willow's sinks, gray cats on the stairs
Cats in the kitchen, next to the frig, you were caught unawares
kittens in the pantry, an old gray tom on the stove.
they spilled out of the windows into the large apple grove.
how can you live with all of these creatures? her mother said.
An withered old hair-sparse tabby hissed at the woman’s head.
Her daughter laughed and said “Don’t mind old Red.”
Then she began opening tin cans, for she kept her creatures fed.
They ran in from the stable, they ran in from the barn.
Hearing that tin open, brought them in from balls of yarn.
They fought and spit and snarled as they fought over their cat food.
Putting Willow's outraged mother into a worse more angry mood.

Refining consciousness
Line of inquiry
instrumentalising mind, I rested thought
employing it only when needed
shifting to heart, I became self-taught
gentling touch, voice of conscience heeded

Repeated reincarnations reveal,
that on ensouling a new body-mind,
the truth of agape love, we cease to feel
and as we flounder about on earth blind,
we are caught in ego’s relentless bind.
Recognising this fact, how should we act,
since we are no longer by wisdom backed?
The optimal path is thought cessation,
requiring simply we cease to react,
nonchalant to outcomes and sensation.
All answers are within, so let’s begin
by becoming a witness to ourself,
in the flow of life, choosing to plug-in
but having no agenda in our shelf,
watching how fate pans out all by itself.
We’re not suggesting a phlegmatic stance
nor ceasing striving, leaving all to chance,
yet being still, in timeless time we learn
of how nodes within us joyfully prance,
as in fire of bliss, we willingly burn.
...Even those who see ‘the future,’
will see it in past terms,
since the past is the reference from
which all mankind must learn.
That grand, utopian future
of which so many dream,
is defined by what it escapes:
a past brutal and mean.
It’s shaped by what it doesn’t have,
compared to ages gone,
a vision based on past eras
stripped of all that went wrong.
And the sad thing of such visions,
I think it must be said,
is how quickly the all look stale,
how soon they look dated.
Look back on all the old scifi
from back in the fifties,
the future they imagined them
now seems quaint history.
It all seems such a waste of time,
trying to think like that,
much better to just see the truth
and lessons from the past.
The endless wisdom that was gleaned,
just waiting to be used,
and half the time we learn from it
we create something new.
Remember that the Renaissance
was folks looking at Greece,
thinking that they could learn from it,
soon after culture peaked.
Remember the Founding Fathers
we’re looking back at Rome,
a republic, no need for king,
from that so much has grown.
The truth is undeniable,
so long as we may last,
every single human alive
is living in the past.
The Salvation And Evil Money--
Whose money is that? I think I know;
Its owner is quite happy though;
Salvation full of joy like a vivid rainbow;
I watch him laugh, I cry hello;
He gives his money a shake;
And laughs until his belly aches;
The only other sound's that breaks;
Is of distant waves and birds wake;
The money is salvation, evil and deep;
But money has promises to keep;
After cake and lots of sleep;
Sweet dreams come to him cheap;
He rises from his gentle bed;
With thoughts of improvishness in his head;
He eats his jam with lots of bread;
Ready for the bankrupt days ahead;

Dry Valentine
Poem
Lionel Derbyshire
I do not wish the repeat of despair
If my expecting heart is again misled
By Cupid’s hollow cleft.
Those heartfelt cracks will duty bruise
The perception of my aching soul
And it’s zest will be lost again.
For it is my palate’s hope this time
To taste love’s darling precious sauce
On this here coming Valentine’s day.
It is only when Cupid’s arrow misses
Will my luscious thirst be wasted
With unwanted cracks
Instead of passion stacks.
This qualm is becoming difficult
For how can doubt become doubt
Without doubt , or I am off the view
To suppose that love could really love
Only on this here coming Valentine’s day
And when it does not ..
I will again be Cupid’s captive slave
To wait upon and gain
On another Valentine day.
Until I learn of Cupid's myth
Which be not to wait in vain
To love somebody
In Cupid's hollow cleft.
There is no such thing as time
Only stacked moments and bundled thought
I live in a world hung in emptiness
Where sight is few and far between
It’s night, the brook babbles with no audience
The crickets chirp for the moon
I hear the tree frogs song
There is no such thing as time
I would guess it feels like wind
Or the speeding and slowing of heartbeats
Still I see nothing
My woe knows the worst, however
There is no reason to cry when I cannot see my fears
There is no such thing as time
Therefore no such thing as life
So if life does not begin, it never ends
