Premium Member Between Reality and Understanding
A thought arose...

In Hegel's great dialectic cotillion,
Time transcends as the Absolute emerges,
From deep submersion.
Veritably idealistic path to verity.
It is all about History!

While Schopenhauer's Will, By mere chance,
Drives life in concentric circles spinning,
But not winning
Human solicitations...

Cardboard Mattress
I bet your beds comfy,
I imagine it smells of flowers and vanilla,
Or just the smell of clean,
And you have pillows,
Big soft voluptuous pillows,
And sheets,
Clean sheets.
I could sleep forever in a bed like that,
Literally forever,
And I...

I was walking no particular direction
One ordinary day
On my regular path
Mulling over my sticks and stones
Charms and dolls
When I saw a familiar door
Fresh painted colors on letters that were  there before
It read “we all...

Some sigh, as gentle breeze signs.
Guiding us to where true beauty lies,
From the heart, they flutter and bear flight.
Carrying emotions, as stars in the night.

Words might be as expansive as spells.

Psalm of Death - Longfellow Rewrite For Ap Lit
Tell me not, in mournful numbers,
Death is but an empty grave,
And the soul dies in that slumber,
Which will rot its bones away.

Death is merely but a passage,
No, the grave is not its goal;
Beyond the boundaries...

“we look for that that does not come and go
it cannot be organic form, subject to decay 
thoughts and beliefs are fickle, how little we know
yet come what may, our inner child continues to play”

It had been a while since I met with that companion of mine.

A criminal offense to...

Same
One by one
I am killing my emotions
To save myself
Keeping hold of my devotions
Liberate myself
Of disappointing expectations
Reminding myself
Of self preservation

Cause the game it doesn't change
It's always more of the same
It will chew you up and spit...

I understand that in your mindset
You think you’re entitled to judge me
Though you know nothing of my life

My youth is gone and spent
I couldn't solve the problems of the world
I don't think I even made...

Precious blood of my blood,
What can I give to you
To prepare you for this life?

Fleshed Ripped From Your Beating Heart

Darkness feeds off your fears at night
You thought you could escape it, your a silly fool

A Promise Worth Making
A promise worth making
Is a promise worth keeping,
The vows made by liars
Simply aren’t worth your weeping.

The risk that you’re taking
Is a blessing fate’s reaping,
For a promise worth making
Is a promise worth keeping.

A friend that’s worth...

Where does it lead, this path I follow?
I look back. So many twists and turns,
Such a long, way, some parts smooth as sand, 
others strewn with pebbles and rocks,
even seemingly insurmountable boulders.
Yet, here I am,...

CAROUSEL

Sights, sounds, smells of the beachfront,
music , lights and shiny mirrors,
painted ponies with golden poles,
beckon me to ride.

I point to the one with the bright blue mane,
two arms steady me on its’ back,

The unspeakable is coming for me.

All the while feeling so vile.

Finishing its task of wetting, replenishing the Earth, 
As part of God’s plan to ease Mother Nature’s pain
And give our home, our planet a moment’s rebirth.

A ways to go
Ever heard the wind blow
In the middle of the night?
And watch the moon fade from view,
Taking with it all its light?
Then wake in the morning
Underneath a sky of gray,
Wishing you'd held on to dreams
Which have...

It’s good to know there’s still a few 
Deep thinkers, roundabout; 
Those who are unafraid to speak their minds
Of certainty or doubt.  
To disagree with you and me 
About religion, politics and war;
