when life gets turned to global goo
tenderized...

Today I'm in a trance to learn to dance
I'm lost in a visible circumstance
Through a velvet wire proned in torment
A chosen quest for inner silence to rest

Vanquished & torn

For desire pursuit, makes us not bliss rife

Pause awhile to ask who in truth we are
Driven by instincts, we’ve drifted afar

Deadened to conscience, how will we reform

the cooking and the cleaning 
it’s difficult to have known

In awe of silence filtered through a variation in a dream

The mindset plummets in cordially bliss away
Time in essence to frolic in the lying ambiance of it's hidden garb

My mind and heart will never be friends.
Sworn enemies, they wrestle and box
for control of me, the battle never ends
like the tick tocking pendulums of clocks

I sought through the thoughts
that envelops my thoughts
with trumpets in my head;
I lay back billowing,
gazing into the thoughts of 'expectancy'
Mirrors shimmering,
showing forth my strength.

Those are the days of struggle,
