progression
may concedes to june
when spring rebirth is complete
the time to mature -
grassy hills turn verdant green
blossoms explode with color
july soon refines
june's promise of fulfillment
expanding its gifts -
fuller and vibrant glory
paints the mature summertime
late august moves in
heading towards surrender
come autumn's flurry -
fading greens and colors hush
on their way to winter sleep

city
finds busy
wheels rotate on roads.
deals stir like ripples in minds.
since centuries, life rolls on with progression.

Liminal - Two Worlds
The space in-between
Two worlds
When we transition
From dreamland
To harsh reality
That moment
When you are
Neither here
Nor there
Traversing
The barrier
Crossing
The line
Stepping in
Stepping out
Over the threshold
Negotiating the border
The ready, steady
Before the go
The rising red curtain
Before the show
Liminal lostness
The uncomfortable
Homeless
Non-place
The wilderness of un-belonging
The chrysalis of transformation
The journey has begun
Simultaneously ending
Over we go..
Through we push
Pay the ferryman
See you on

The Hunger For Progression Must Meet Rejection
Pain is often the fountain of direction in our lives
We will experience rejection in this life
But it is the pathway to the direction we often need!
The hunger for progression must meet rejection!
In the depths of our understanding
We know that there is more because we want more!
The cure for passivity will be something that shakes

Home of the Illusions
Is full of concealment,
form, and void. A
plane of darkness
where immortals
descended from grace,
as their flames lay
buried under their temples
and forgotten by.
Intertwining within the
heart of matter lies
the key to hidden wisdom
hidden in darkness,
opaqued by the initiates.
Man's own unreality makes
him subject to the illusions,
as if he is a prey
of his own web.
He relies deeply upon
his faculties and go
against

Progression
"Start as you mean to go on" they say
An impossible task to fulfil
If we start and continue along the same vein
We never will blossom and grow.
Evolving, reaction and organic growth
Allow us to finish our task
And start with the path in pursuing the goal
By applying an oxygen mask
Personal willing adapting to change
Steeling ourselves to the cause
Taking

Supremacy
“their freedom of width, yet not of height
Descends, through the transpiring fright
Which enraptured them, in a cage of night
, never once, I would abide
Preachings on the repugnant walls
That seems to repulse the oppugnant scales
That never pleased the reluctant deals
Our seats of blank, yet never brown
Generalize the

Depression and Your Progression
Dissatisfaction is the key to progress
You will experience stress in many situations
Life can be a mess but the best of you is yet to come!
When you can't find yourself
Hold on, you are a leader
You can go from zero to hero
When you get lost inside your brain
It’s time you maintain your sanity
Turn against the vanity in

Months of Progression
November, I don't want you
I don't want your phrases
I don't want your time
I don't want your care
December, I don't want you
I might enjoy your praises
I might like how you try
I don't want you there
January, I might want you
I like that we're no longer strangers
I don't like it when you cry
I like the gleam in your

Progression
Anxiously I waited in line single file, nervous because I hadn't been here for awhile. I hadn't given myself credit for how far I've come. This realization of my growth made me smile. What I did today is proof of my progress, and that's pretty damn cool.
I summoned my courage, in line I sat.

Progression and Prosperity Example
fine lines between respect and bull$hit
i love the way respect reflects off of the concepts of our personal replies
i learn new things everyday from simply being respectful
loneliness teaches me lessons of the right ways to lessen
thank God i am still growing by simply now knowing
that unbeknownst education has led me to the doorstep of your

Elimination
gone back to nature
plants overtaking the streets
nothing to wager
no fannies in too small seats
no more televised repeats
nothing new to learn
knowledge without a future
only time to burn
always idle computers
no new wounds needing sutures
airplanes are all still
no one's borders being crossed
no steaks on the grill
no more items to defrost
nothing's gained when all things lost
meters keep running
no
