lacking in knowledge
cyclic pain and joy confounds 
we feel incomplete
head and heart aligned with love
path to bliss in permanence

In the calm
Cool aftermath
Of all the drugs I did
After so long
Being on that skid
To be free 
Confounds me
Flabbergasted I 
Smoke a cigarette
And cry...

Dont let this chance pass by.
In duration
As long sat, spins for it.
Boils may bring on!

Out to world's spectacle
A real fairground's
To gaze, if in a blur.
Grin, if confounds....

It is in sweet surrender that solace doth soar, 
in its passive glory reaching beyond the clouds, 
it is in sweet surrender that solace doth pour, 
enlightenment- clearing all the mind confounds...

Everyone has an opinion, an idea, a belief.
Or two or three, some people have many.
Everyone wants to tell me what to do today.
It irritates me.
It confounds me,
As I have my own opinions, ideas, and beliefs too....

Cosmological constant …
quintessence confounds
Supernovae as mileposts 
clear and profound
Addition subtraction
their delta expands
An orphan untethered
—the wind through the sand

______________



and beauty's blind too

reacted to or distracted by
as every mother's act

is true
no forest need

resolve its trees
the lion-fang's

myopic hue
the earnest creature's

bitter due
as love content

confounds the fool

Morning dawn infuses new hope
If we believe in grace
Chance for love with love to elope
At slow and easy pace 

The gong of truth resounds 
Life no longer confounds 
Bliss within us abounds

Long night gone
Morning dawn

where he physically paints
i paint deep within the confounds of my mind
my twisted mind
where anxiety attacks
the adrenaline rush
i need to finish this masterpiece. 
i've been obsessed with the color red
once i lose control
you liberate me
you paint me
perfectly
may i borrow your favorite brush?...

I wish I had
A way to say
I’ll love you til 
The break of day.

But when the morning
fog doth lift
A mystery hath
Left us betwixt.  

While sunshine spins
A merry-go round
Into my heart
Earth too confounds.

But if brighter days 
give way to fruit 
I’ll love you - I love you
Til death has no room....

A soft spell of unfounded lightness,
confounds
deep engraves of pride and posture
A sweet pace of evenness branded,
pervades
tales of dew, and wine-filled sadness

Remorseless fumes and dues to end this,
decide
a tasteless tune of truth rewound
Cautious terms of proven bonds,
rest on knots
and yet you won't...

Life is a cipher
One I cannot define
It baffles and confounds me
Whenever I ponder mine
The highs can be heartwarming
Though fewer and fewer these days
The lows are so very alarming
Often seen through a mystical haze
Oh bring back those wonderful moments
I pray to the Powers that Be
Go away, you looming black clouds
I beg you, stop following me!...

Clarity is lost when good 
escapes an easy definition,
and bad is not predictably 
a cowboy dressed in black.

Complexity confounds, from losing 
innocence to courting possibilities,
from childhood's casual cakewalk
to the forced march of responsibilities,
the blurring of all boundaries,
the complications of a simple yes or no.

Simplicity has yes written all over it....

For all the pain and suffering...
The misery I've caused 
People and my shameful self.
There is one thing, one feeling.
Have you felt this lately?
The fact of being forgiven.
It confounds me how it can be.
Just like it's been washed away.
So simply like it didn't happen. 
A new beginning waiting for me.
Go and try it yourself.
Humble youreslf and ask for it....

Lost and found; together how?
God and sinner enjoined now
Searched for love in the wrong places
Always attracted to the wrong faces

Solitude allows for reflection, deep
The aim: to get a good night’s sleep
The physical man stoops in shame
His spiritual side seeks no fame

His emotional envelope, confounds	
Soul and spirit on battlegrounds
Personal discovery awaited ahead
Prepare to be surprised and scared...

A singular act of splendor-producing
makeup application at the tip of a brush
can awaken worlds that confound the imagination
and certainly confound all religious absurdities,
psychologies, and philosophies.

I choose a life that continuously confounds the absolute--
the absolute right
the absolute faith
the absolute belief
the absolute idea
the absolute definition--
by way of joy--
everyday, everywhere.
It's an absolute must!...

Unfaithful
do love n hate seperate,
by the thin ness of a rhyme,
love is hate upon your plate,
same passion, hurting time...   (thanks Russell Sivey)

women say they want a guy,
who is ever faithful,  true,
magnetizing flame burns is why,
the moths are drawn to you,

mans ego aint sublime,
moths come, attractive too,
a stronger man, may dodge this time,
but weakness confounds you,
and so begins the crime…
too true:(
