from a pantheist

To be literate makes us cock of the hoop. 
If we cannot read we’re out of the loop,
but can a slowpoke,
and illiterate folk,
learn to read eating alphabet soup....

 where only he could be

As I escape inside myself
—a prisoner running free

Oh my goodness, unbelievable fun,
Ordeal for my nemesis has begun !
Dreaming a favourite dream?
Must be my wishful thinking!
Am I his sole saviour, or he has none!...

I'm pushed behind
By my abilities, or my lack there of, and the hate in my mind
I have no purpose here being alive...

Swelling in the heat
wishful thinking
laughter
what could be

Sitting on the fence
between corn fields and wildflowers

Feeding hungry mouths
Rubbing tired shoulders
Inadequate

Love...

If my voice was but a croak
I'd write my lyric on a mountain high
So all the world could see
Note, I say not sing.
Lest they were in harmony.
There I go again, wishful thinking....

I do not put up with rudeness 
I am older now
I recognize it faster
I tape their mouths shut
Spin them around
Kick them in the petootie
and send them to the moon
Or is this just wishful thinking?...

Melancholy dreams,
         fourth quarter fiscal year end
               wishful thinking tears...

               Hegemony egemon 
         the son of satan, mammon
               chaotic havoc......

Nine month night - light broke free like dawn.
In babe’s face, impassioned pinking.
From romance of wishful thinking -
Too many threads to count, forgone.
Potent, when God, she called upon.

a contrived
       fiction
yet
sensitive..
      ..a coincidence..
perhaps..
a luxury,
         whatever..
modern
yet
     timeless,
coherent
       but incomplete..
a
source
       of
            day-dreams...

I coulda written that song, “Purple Rain.”
It didn’t take that big of a brain.
And I coulda written that song “Hotel California.”
But girl - I do wanna warn ya!
I’ve always been considered at least halfway insane....

Maybe if we sit in the rain
With nothing but our thoughts
The raindrops could turn into diamonds
To bedazzle our minds 
With the purest of congitations
So we could sit peacefully in the rain
With nothing but our thoughts....

Boko Haram sect claimed to have killed many and caused distractions
The government denounced this as wishful thinking and untrue
The masses condemned this act of killing and called for drastic actions
The destruction of this terrorist sect is long overdue....

How can you get what I want
And what you want
And even though you hate your life
You shouldn’t because look at me
I have nothing
My life’s dull 
And I can’t get over the frustration
Because you take away
Everything
And I get nothing
But wishful thinking and
Shattered hopes....

i rarely say it
but when i do
i mean it
thats why i'm saying it to you
i'm sorry
but i dont love you
i know i said i did
but i never really meant it
wishful thinking perhaps
i'm sorry
but i know you'll find someone better
someone who can make you happier than i ever could
i'm sorry...

Down the dreamed aisle
  comes the bliss of your sight
Cord of your life
  sinew of your might.
Abaft the unending trek
  comes the longed outset
A more colorful kismet
  under the glorified sunset.

Wishful thinking 
  ceases the awakening
With thine caring
  adoration is everlasting....

It's the New Year's boom
with colored fireworks lauding,
the toast of the town.
The proud, old guard has vanished,
with its dreams, yet unvanquished.

Hues light the plum night;
'midst crash and bang in the skies.
Starry-eyed moon glows.
The past's still following me,
but only in memory....

the things  i can see:
rain on the window,
Christmas cards, swaying
trees, a sleeping old
lady, bills to pay

and i can feel: 
the desk, a sneeze
coming on, the 
chair and my 'tache

i can hear:
clocks ticking,
snores, music

lemon,
rose smells

wine!

(the last one is wishful thinking, LOL)...
