You missed, Calling me a pessimist, For I opt, To be an optimist, But, that doesn’t mean, I should close my eyes, To the mean scene. Nooooo… I should scrutinize, Realize, And, materialize. Create the love, With a kid’s glove, Gentle, On the mental, As we progress, Though our regression, Success, Instead of depression. Though […]

Prerogative
Here I am… Is it predestined? Will I eat steak, Or ham? Have I no choice? Yet, I know, I can raise my voice, Sure, I can take, But, I can grow, To give, too. What about you? Do you choose, Where you go? Or, are you asleep, At the wheel? How deep, Do you […]
Chains Of Events
Will I be an event, In this chain reaction? Can I prevent, The preceding event? The Earth did quake, Causing man to shake, … in his boots, The sea did wake, Are they in cahoots? In these chains of events, Will there be a change of servants? Does chaos theory suggest, The rest? Though it […]
Infancy
infancy, n: infancy, n: The period of our lives when, according to Wordsworth, “Heaven lies about us.” The world begins lying about us pretty soon afterward. — Ambrose Bierce Do you fancy, Infancy? Do you sense, The innocence? Though not able to stand, Living in the promised land, Though not able to speak, Representing the […]
Cracked Bell
Take pity, On every city, ’cause when the Earth quakes, Our foundation shakes. It’s more than rumor, That we felt a tremor, ’cause it’s true we’re ringing, Like a cracked bell, Nature’s singing, “Say farewell.” Ding dong the witch ain’t dead, Bringing on what we dread, “It’s a small world after all,” “For whom does […]
Alright Already
Refrain: Keep in sight, We just might, Be all right. Alright? All right! Please… no, no, don’t lose sight, Life doesn’t have to be that hard! Why kick, scream n’ fight? Life doesn’t have to be that hard! You can make it easy enough, This is no bluff, Life doesn’t have to be that hard! […]
Buy Some Time
Can I buy some time, ’cause I’m diggin’ this scene, And, just reaching my prime, So, can I buy some time? What do you mean, Mine is all spent? I dunno where it went. What can be found in McMurdo Sound? I thought we’d go on forever, Then, again… Am I that different than a […]
Sure Sore
Chorus I’m not quite sure, Why I’m so sore, So, to myself I say, “Hey! Didn’t think you could take any more?” To which, I reply, “Ahhh… so what, I’ll endure.” Though my heart does ache, In fact, we make it break, When we’re so careless, With all at steak, My stomach does turn, The […]
So Precious
At the precipice, If you’re asked to list, What is precious, Will it exist? Buffalo stampede over the cliff, Will you be able to resist, The urge to head with the herd, Will you concede your principles, At the precipice, What if? Do you know… At your precipice, What’s sooo precious? Will it proceed you, […]
Shut Up Shutting Up
You talk too much, But, you sure look good: “Better off thought a fool, Than to open your mouth, And, remove all doubt.” Blabbin’ “this, that and some such,” Are ya out of brain food, Are ya an empty soul, Did all your senses fly south, Has your rational run out? You talk too much, […]
No (k)Not
Thought everything, Was going fine, ’til I took an overview, Of introspect. What did I expect? To escape what’s due? So, I thought I’d sew, A stitch in time, And, fix that, Which I call mine, Pulling the needle through, But… what?!!?! The thread, Has no knot, Though I’ve racked my head, Now I know, […]
You Can Be
You can be, After all, You are. You can be, Total, No more. But, would yawanna, Dwindle… Lesser? Who’d wanna, Terminal, Temper? Don’t wannbe, Dismal, For sure. Luckily, it’s easy, For me to be, Me. I appreciate, Being fortunate, Won’t consolidate, My love. I reiterate, It’s a great fate, To procreate, Our love. You can […]
Been Carbon
Are you ready for some action? What’ll bring ya satisfaction: Some carbon composite, Set in a golden ring? Or, a certificate of deposit, Baring interest? Are you ready for gratification, Why not spare the carbon, From an inanimate thing, Instead, Before you’re dead… Consider your very being? After all, You’ve been, Carbon. All your life, […]
Chaos’ Shadow
In the shadow of chaos, Lots can be lost, By all of us, And, it’s not just… A matter of things — Our passion for possession, No, the havoc it brings, Runs much deeper. (I can’t afford to be such a sleeper.) Be forewarned, Even remnants of an Asian storm, Can blow you away, On […]
Bad Astronomy
Bad astronomy, Nooo… just can’t be, Good astronomy, Watching over me. Brown dwarf? Make me barf, You can forget, That old midget, You can bet, An odd object, Is what you get, Tightening the Kuiper Belt. It was not too far, It could be felt, A passing star, Perturbing Sedna. Bumped from her area, Thrown […]
