Hooked On a Feeling
That "FEELING" ...
The one that makes you believe
That everything in your life,
No matter how messed up or negative,
Is actually wonderful ...
The feeling that, for a few hours,
Chases every bad thing in your life away ...

Fall of Berlin
Fall Of Berlin
There on the wall hangs a mixture of paint on linen,
Leaving the impression of a city besieged, encased in ice;
Purposely frozen in horror to remind the living,
Of blood oozing from the rubble into...

They'Re Trying To Tell You
They’re trying to tell you
That your superstitions and machinations
Are an exhausting game of whack-a-mole
They’re trying to tell you
You’ve assumed a version of them
That society told you existed and you never questioned
They’re trying to...

Scary Like Some Other Long Winded Stories
Scary like some other long winded stories
Watching the rise and the fall of a kingdom
Walls once rebuilt again tumble the ground
Allowing the beasties free reign in the village
Bellowing out o’er the wickedest sound
Pacing the streets,...

Evolved Morality, Part I
Humans seem rather peculiar
amidst all the species out there;
reason, language, high emotions,
from romantic love to despair.
But one thing you always notice,
regardless of where you might go,

established their own moral...

The Death of a Horse, the Birth of Memory
The rain didn't fall
last night so much
as it was thrown.
The wind didn't blow
last night so much
as it was whipped.
And a whip is
a thing which
lacerates, it cuts.
The day after
was the last day
and the next days
will...

The Revolution of Light
I have heard of revolutions before—
the American, the French,
the Xinhai in China,
the flames of 1848
that swept across Europe.
Yet I tell you this truth:
none were final,
none were complete,
for the greatest is yet to come—
the Revolution of...

and encounter the repetition of pleasure

Not so the man today we laid to rest.
Who mourn him loved him so, and always will,
Though his heart cease to beat and now is still.

To NATO, in the Language of Power and Peace
O Confederation of the West—
You were not born to conquer shadows,
But to outlive them.
Power is not noise,
It is silence understood by all.
You fear the bear in the east,
But he was your brother once—
Did you not...

Shape Shifting Soul
You might say that I'm just an atom,
But the universe, I extoll.
I view everything in creation
As one big shape shifting soul.
Even individual beings' bodies
Are really something more.
Microbial cells in flesh and bones
Outnumber human cells galore.
A body's...

anointed with the ointment of incredible prosperity
massaged by the fat hands of uncommon wealth
