The Greatest Rule About Vision
Aug 19th, 2010
Is that at first in life
The world is the universe
And the function you see
Goes to infinity.
Youth finds solace in the endless
Future before them.
But the more you see
And the more you learn,
The more you find truth
Is precisely measured.
Not going much farther,
Given its extent,
The world becomes smaller
Leaving only lament.
As we watch the ground
Bellow our feet
Exponentially shrink
We make ourselves the universe
And wouldn't you think
We become thinner and perverse,
Black holes to all with gravity
Expanding on self-depravity
To a minuscule sink.
Age finds solace in its begotten,
False hope that an impossibility,
A law of existence,
Might be bent or broken
To allow passage for the chosen
To the fable of a baby's first view,
And a rearing's first promise,
The greatest lie of life:
You can do whatever you want to do.
To accept this as false,
And in your game lose,
Would be to stave depression
From great expectation
Of what society holds true,
Born from excess
And many a broken dream
From a generation's broken world
And booming economy.

A Steady Shimmy
May 10th, 2009
Back and forth
Racing toward a destination
Unknown.
A dark tunnel.
Sporatic lights.
Innumerable shadows;
The stink of discontentment.
A subway for a mind.
While not derailed,
Uncontrollable it speeds,
The contents and possabilities of the heart swirl
Like colors on the seat hidden
They are kept;
Tacky and soiled they seem.
One must prevail.
A junction:
Decision close.
The law or the gauche?
Whichever comes easier.
More avenues appear.
Will it ever stop?
Will it ever arrive?
The noises of screetching metal
Drown the will
Until its speed is all it will know
And all it will have
Bluring the eyes of the future to see
The defened will in the dark.

What is My Part?
July 19th, 2010
The part in such hatred.
What's really so different?
From many love treads.
To few it comes truly,
When commit they shall,
Who can call is so cruelly
A thing worse than fowl?
For now we are taking
The blame in our heart
A mark of great sinning
To hell would depart.
The man or the women,
Accused of the wrong,
Should know such straight doctrine
Deeper than sunday song.
The toughest words of Jesus
that ever he preached
"Love is the greatest,"
Now let me beseech,
There may be one right,
But God opens the door
To arms that hug tightly
His lost children ashore.
