THE THINGS THAT CANNOT BE EXPLAINED
There are many things we understand…
things we are confident we know…
that through science and creativity
we have ascertained…
But today we send a little blessing out
to all the things in life that cannot be explained.

THE GHOST IN OUR STORE
It doesn’t matter how old I grow or how much wisdom I attain…
In life there will always be some things I do not understand…
some things that cannot be explained.
I clean our bookstore early every Sunday morning…because I’ve found
I enjoy the time all by myself….with no one else around.
I like it when there’s no one in

The Unexplained
Every day you go to work
And hop into your vehicle
Not a thought or say a word
About if the job is meaningful
You sacrifice a lot of time
And try to be agreeable
Often sold on common goals
It all sounds so believable
Any goal that is your own
Should not include your

Unexplained Miracle
She woke up this morning with nothing on her plate, staring at the barrel of the gun pointed in her face. She has been wandering up and down the street since October twelve with a small bag, a worn our shoes, a suite of clothes on her back and her ten years old daughter by

Min Min Light - the Unexplained
On the Outback Downs of Queensland
There is the strangest light
I have seen it first hand
And it sure gave me a fright
I was camped out while Lamb Marking
On the Downs out Corfield way
Hot days with sheep dogs barking
We sure did earn our pay
On one eve when days work done
We sat around a fire
Telling yarns, let our

Unexplained Monopoly-
Shoes and clothes all on the floor;
Video game cartridges piled high from the ceiling to the door;
Music blaring no one's listening;
Cuz too old to hear the old the age you are open doors;
Won't you come open doors
Walk the line stand by me
You'll be fine
I'll show you life as it should be I'll

The Unexplained
Let us find a space amongst the trees and sunset...
In an undisclosed area absent from the busy ways of the world.
A space filled with days where the rain falls with patients and the winds blow with relaxed intentions
Where our surroundings will exceed our imaginations and our eyes exposed to an existing truth
An existing

Unexplained Pain
Unexplained pain
Jinnatul Hossain Tanim
They are covered with gray and black clouds
Gestures give unspoken pain.
The nocturnal bird flies away
The handcuffs of the dead are adorned.
There is no place in that city full of memories
The reality is that you are not here today.
Silent arrogance seeks

The Unexplained
In the year 1900 a Texas judge
Went exploring on horseback all alone
Deep in the West Texas sand dunes he rode
Searching for ancient artifacts and bone
Near buried in sand stood forty wagons
No bodies - no tools -no hint of treasure
Perhaps a hundred souls made up this train
Formed in a "V" for defensive measure
A massacre seems

The Unexplained
Christmas dreams are of happy occasion,
of bells and colours, Santa and presents,
but floods, deluge I saw in my vision,
of floating buses and drifting corpses,
in panic people scattered for cover,
water swirled around ready to drown them,
trashing cars, collapsing city tower,
afloat I saw baskets, carts, dirt and scum,
I awoke in fear, I do not deny,
but what it

Astral Trip Version 2
It seemed like an innocent experiment simple enough I had read the steps
Bedtime routine out of the way I was ready to start ~
Relaxing tape playing for ambiance I was gone in an instant
With zero recollection of the next thirty minutes
When I heard a thunderous clic signaling the music had suddenly stopped
Overcome with a blissful

Unexplained Hatred
The day that I lay there and die
I want you to remember how all you did was lie
Why not be around, now, here, when I'm alive
Without your love and compassion our relationship will not survive
Although you gave birth to me
Even when either one of us are dead you'll never see
I tried for years and years
But
