The Sands Wash Away

They said the gray hair died|

Multiplied in multiples then all of a sudden|

Deceased|

Gone from the place|

Once more they mistake isolation for death|

Not enough oil to swallow|

The over privileged get overfed|

The underfed suffer in the corner not seen for days|

Or rather seen for dead|

Death covers stains|

The cuts and bumps|

Digging in the next man's trash|

Hoping to find another man's treasure|

Or rather another man's loss|

A meal to stop the screeching|

The rumbles|

Without notice they take notice|

Eye balls turning corners Scavenging the place|

Oh!|

We no longer have any use for company|

Stare into the walls for they are the only things you'll need|

Come closer as the bifocals uncover the stage|

Release the hounds make him scream until there is no more left|

One more is never enough multiply the sands|

Create the castle|

Then let the waves drain it away|

The hurricane blow it away|

The thunderstorms wash it away|

Don't lay next to it|

Your eyes might catch the grains|

Rather place your head into the sand|

Let the grains suffocate you and bury your body to forever lay|

Inside Your Hands

Parables fumble in unprepared hands| Deprived of gifts bestowed to thee| As humans we seek shelter beneath a tree| When our feet become weak| And our needs extend beyond our means| As rain pours| It cleanses our soul| Dormant ideas start to grow| Yet we turn a blind eye| To what's before our sight| Taking the easy way| Shunning plights| Fighting is not a physical ordeal| It's more of a rejection to extol the almighty rule| Exploring alternatives to fables disguised as facts| Letters shredded in half| Eulogies embedded on a golden calf| The story was written for you to digest| The ending inside your hands| Inside your thoughts is the rest|

I Walk Along The Road

I love nature bare| Bare as the bears searching the rivers for salmon| Bare as the deer roaming the woods| Crossing the street until that fatal accident comes in the form of the bright light it sees just before the light shatters into pieces and darkness takes hold of the scene| I walk the rocky road bare| To feel those rough edges caress my feet| I sleep with no tent| The leaves from the trees are all the shelter I need| No backpack hunching my back| I search and gather my meals to fill the nourishment of my needs| The stars lead my way| So I hunt for the night| Without a compass and follow the glitters in the sky| I don't boast about my accomplishment| Because I have yet to accomplish anything| The shared journey between my feet and I as I bare my soles into mud| And cuddle without awakening my desires| Allowing them more sleep before they awake me from my dreams| Love every inch of land like this were your holy land| Black Elk speaks from cr...

Excavating Thoughts

Excavating thoughts purge the deep swell in an abundant forest filled with catacombs| Think not of what to say| Rather| Think of formations and placement for your words| The expression expedite hidden phrases| A realm in multitude of scenic shades| Which fill stains and covers from edge to edge| Put in motion a rehearsed visual| Captured for later interpretation and judgement| A glory outdrew| A painting foreseen inside that thought| Once emerged from a projector working its way from picture to sound| From sound to dialects| From dialects to expression| From expression to memorized interpretations or unsightly inked writings| Exclusive to emotional reincarnations| Contemplation and relegation amount heavy loads| To collapse the foundation in which laid heavy groundwork| Obscure water waves regulate the sounds of prejudgments| Before seen in the obscurity of the themes| Awake from the thankfulness of your mind| And enter into the depths of the b...
