As I explore the outer space,
And make connections, introspections
Nonplussed, but given to the chase-
The Fate of Fools’ directions!
 
Too much I’ve asked! And too late, perhaps
When I am taken to the task
How long I wrought, how strong I fought,
To never see the Truth to pass...

The moon did not show 
up in the night sky
Rolling down to light my path
with a car beam
As the stars shone I walked alone
The whole world was fast asleep
An unkempt friend of mine 
Walked with me thoughts entwined
And asked to see the hidden world
I had lost within me.

“An Aching for the Cosmos”
I’ve fount fault
With finding fault
For days and days uncounted
Washed away his beach of wonder
After an introspections over 
What world has wonder brought?
To sinking ship and shoveling sun
All dreams are broken pieces
Fallen apart for shame and speechless
When will this earth then dead fall?
Turn round from life withdraw...

skinned green trees
bleeding ghosts
fallen leaves
inner disquiet
unchartered journeys
love is an ocean
arent we scapegoats
following the footsteps
of fermented purple grapes
prisoners of intoxicated embrace
existential angst retrospections
naked honest introspections
i am kissing the painted 
red guitar from spruce
trees are speaking

Sometimes the suffering
seems extreme,
for the crime we often
do not know...yet
sensing a wrong
in the core
of our being--

Sometimes we know
we got off easy,
for the wrong 
did not deserve
our freeing--

Between such oscillation
lenience then consternation
On one “Sometimes”
should all agree:
Between every two 
introspections
at the least
there should be three....

Some friends I know are loathe to share 
Affections for these word inflections
Try as I may they seem to scare
At thoughts of further introspections

If they should pry their headphones high
Peruse the verse their tune relies
They just might feel the big reveal
The rhythmic zeal and fresh appeal 
Within the rants they wryly chant
 
Just maybe then all won’t be lost
They may just pick up Robert Frost...
