when they come
we will see
when they come
more will beam
when they come
the ostrich will run against the wind
when they come
the clouds shall part
when they come
areas will not be forged
homes will not be lost
pain will not be painted
over the faces
or the hedges
when they come
and they tell you they've been here
all along
you will say
'ahh, it felt like you were'

food
for
thought.

thick air

im not too good at this life thing
i should have the hang of it by now
but i don't
i keep getting by with the bare minimum
with just enough to make it through
and then again sometimes
just enough doesn't feel quite right
just enough doesn't keep people by your side
ah
im tired of just enough
im sad that 'it's just enough'

load of crap
just enough

words

my words are stuck in a dam
high up above the hills
they grow cold
 they shiver
as the moon waxes 
they loose magic
they cry 
for a way out
and Mr. earthquake 
hears them
he unleashes
one of his renowned shakes of fluff
opening the dam like a clam
my words now 
freely, flow down 
pouring into the towns
imposing 
that dryness of language 
is no longer the norm
people's linguistic pipes 
are unclogged
words now run through the streets 
causing merry havoc
lifting skirts of impatience and anticipation
showing glimpses of what they can not describe
my words 
they cascade until the cascading's caput is cut
then they rest
the lazy river, they join
undulating liquid snake
all the way
to the brink of river-ness
to the birth of endless
to the big wide blue
oceanic words 
my words become
ever changing this fickle words
they keep me going these humless words

the 3 10's

time to make a change
today is special
so go outside
and breathe
love
into the atmosphere
make it grow
this love bubble of ours

today facebook stole 39% of my soul, and i ate two bowls of cereal . .

.
.

the rest of my time was divided between procrastination and contemplation

the plant of my day never saw the sunlight
only until the darkness fell
did my day want to begin
and even as i got ready
i felt heavy with complacency and indifference
the world's tentacles made it to my room
and i was not ready for those huge suction cups

i had to break a window
to lured the squirmy tentacles away
with the music from my accordion
they followed dancing until the ocean
was reached (just as they reached my house, the little bastards)
and they were home
the squid they belonged to was evidently distressed
the sight of his precious tentacles made him squirt a squidish smile

the road back intended to be mysterious and challenging
but my trusty accordion persuaded it
with smoky smoothness
to pretend it was summer and to forget all about the clock

with the night warm as a hug
i made it back
in literally
no time

after cleaning the glass
sleep was wonderful
except
i had this crazy dream
about the world
and it

was controlled by silly men

and their ocean was bleeding

and they didn't do a damn thing

and then i woke up.

Sunday

what is it about you day?
the problems you bring seem to be toppling over the top of my patience
yet you find ways to show me the power I have to change the stresses

did you plan all of this since we invented you, day?
did you plot against me?
when did you decide that it was cool to throw these people i didn't want to see right in front of me, when did you calculate exactly what it would take for my love to faint?
is someone paying you day?
could you really be that greedy? and what would you do with your earnings any way, you've spent yourself being mischievous and now you're almost over.

i have but one simple plea
talk to the night, yes the one right behind you
and please tell her to be soft and kind.

chaos


Chaos poofs into my life
through the invisible road of seven parts
it poofs and it squishes left-over beliefs
winking a smile
as if daring the confused part of me.

I am ready
to stop living in a corporate world
so bring on the dancing
i will crush the malice
growing within the walls of your brain
the walls shaken by these rainless thunders
by this chaotic weather

Attempts to change reality with letters
Mr. Robbins had it right, language IS everything
today
will be the first

active
chaos
come

ctvhsm

please lift me out of this stagnant rut
propel my spirit
give it some charge
bring in the change
abandon the chase
of tasting the chaste
this life is a paradox
expectations
are lead-less
harbor nothing

use everything
belief is a tool
and i just found the handle
let the music begin

and most importantly of all

don't take the world so seriously

peeple of ze wurrld relax!
