Buying the Farm
Have you chosen what you will become,
my son,
or will you become something yet unchosen?
Become?
How will you keep yourself gainfully occupied,
dare I speak of vocation?
Oh yes,
I will be absent.
Absent from…?

Absent from you.
My wisest son,
thank you...

The green village, the colored city, the ever familiar locality
Each path, tree, house, turn, each native I have left behind
But creepers, hedges have entangled with my leg and hand
The green crops fields, green hills, fruit...

Humane Minds and Divine Bodies
I forget who first said to me,
Language evolved consciousness,
not so much the other way around;
although it was probably Julian Jaynes.
Kant has this soft cause-effect juxtaposition reversed,
but more of an awareness before
with after conversation really,

Beckoning betterment and relationship
I agree that perhaps we could’ve loved more
But you find community in your elderly...

Bizarre Thoughts
The doctor asked, “Any bizarre thoughts occurred to you?”
Mr. Trexler, the patient, had many since age two.
However, as he would mention with hesitation,

She Came This Way
On a headstone in the ground,
a life's summation can be found:
born and died and little more
marks the end with an underscore.

So Poetic
The perplexity of my complexion
Is a God given blessin’
But many have been stressin’
Life’s annoying lessons
That’s in need of correction
But in no need of perfection
Due to the detection
Of affection
In my isolated section,
The convection
Of my teachings
Is telling...

America has been terrorising for many generations.
Spying allegations, secret conversations,
US imperialism continues to destroy nations.
Cheers and celebrations for leader’s assassinations,

Lies and propaganda from bias...
