    Circumstance

     

    thoughts of your beautiful face penetrate my mind

    how can the experience of that moment be genuine

    a meeting with so much circumstance

    a crossing of paths so real and so seamless

    somedays just reach unheard of results

    thank you for being there on that day...

    Goodbye My Friend

    We grow up together, side by side

    Playing on swings, or going down slides

    Brothers we were arm in arm

    Building forts, walking the trail long

     

    You dad got a better job in another state

    You had to move, that sealed our fate

    Friends no more we would be

    Except by mail between you and me

     

    Goodbye my friend, you're moving far away

    Goodbye friend, I will miss you everyday

     

    I never stopped calling you my friend

    Even though our lives went separate ways

    In my heart you're a friend till the end

    Until my dying day

     

    Goodbye my friend, you're moving far away

    Goodbye friend, I will miss you everyday

    Trouble at 200mph

    Sometimes we live life like we're in a race
    We need to back down to a slower pace
    Life's a journey,  life's a ride
    We need to enjoy it one step at a time

     

    But we go through life on a fast track
    Seeing things from the corner of our eye
    Living like this is just a death trap
    That only leads to our demise

     

    Trouble at 200 miles per hour
    Living our lives way to fast
    Trouble at 200 miles per hour 
    If we're not careful,  we're gonna crash

     

    We live at a hectic pace, always on the go
    Do this, do that, no chance to relax and reload
    We need to slow down, before we go down
    We need to recharge our lives
    Because we are only heading to our demise 

     

    Trouble at 200 miles per hour
    Living our lives way to fast
    Trouble at 200 miles per hour 
    If we...

    Particle of a dream

    Motion wandering aimless with tender images,

    shifting perception seeming to know the passages.

    In this intimate trust of this sanctuary being all fair,

    fields of flowers painting the landscape so bare.

    The road between felt like a camino of sensation,

    moonlight during day in gentle hues of motion.

    Taking me to the windmill of slow gesture,

    sensing that I have been here before for sure.

    Coffee and biscuits on the stoop table prepared,

    no one here and I am thirsty and so dared.

    The coffee just perfect with foamed milk,

    those cookies melted dunking like chocolate silk.

    Pondering the reality about in this dream,

    created by love compassion the perfect seem.

    Is that some melody of love that swells through?

    or is my mind absorbed by a particular pursue.

    Some truth without form and wave of stillness,

    the modesty of a sacred...

    Fire-pulling Universe


      
        
      


    How much have I pondered - incomprehensible - and how much have I postponed? I can't catch it! I would say. With a true-proud and perhaps whimpering consciousness, to whisper only to the pure light atmospheres of my eyes, what thoughts, moods, emotions I cherished for Someone who gave up trampled on me. The happy fulfillment of the universe can be here on this earth two sparkling, fire-piercing eyes: a tiny dance of teeth, the body speech of tongues in the palate, in a system of organized tissues!

    And for in every kiss the elusive charm of immortality flares up; passions collide in the wake of heroic battles. The crease of lips and faces shreds each other after midnight! And in the end, each one breaks, hangs, and finally merges with the fulfilled universe again with united force.

    The shattered, sultry bars of the night melt into themselves, guarding the sleeper hard! - how ...

    Dear doubts

    Dear doubts,

    You need to stop speaking so loud!

    I'm trying to figure my stuff out.

    So aggressive! A bit obsessive!

    Making my accomplishments fade.

    I've now got A heartache. 

    The arguments I've caused, the amount of respect I've lost. 

    May I get some peace? Leave me be please!

    My securities are infected, all by insecurities so I left it.

    I've got plans yet, I'll doubt I'll regret it. 

    Doubts so cold I need to build A fire. Happiness lost I'm a make a flyer. 

    Always got the benefit of the doubt, the rant and I don't know what to talk about.

    Impossible to gaze upon and reach for it, if I thought of it I've found myself doubting it. 

    So Dear doubts...is this your desire or skill?

    P.S

    When are you going to doubt me?

    He Moves With A Purpose

    the
    footprints of God almighty
    leaves
    black holes
    in the universe
    and
    drags pieces of stars
    He 
    moves 
    with 
    a purpose
    through
    the 
    light of God

    The Red Moon Hawk

    oh
    what shine
    bright at night
    thus
    the
    red moon hawk
    sings 
    about its plight
    then
    proceeds to devour
    his wings
    with its razor sharp 
    corn yellow beak

    From the Hilltop..

    From the hilltop

    We observe our 

    Searching paths:

    Winding and tortuous.. 

    So to recognize

    That the hilltop

    Is not a place

    But What we Are..

    In which our paths: 

    Winding and tortuous

    We have trod...
