Current Events.

Society is in decline, the blind are leading the blind;
fear ignites the masses, then sends the least evolved among us into frenzied states of havoc. 
History is repeating itself, as certain lives are still worth more than others,
in two millennia we have not accepted that we are all brothers. 

Race was created to divide us, then the class system created larger rifts,
and somehow we cannot agree on what the damage really is. 
Unnecessary evil is broadcast into our homes,
as the media controls so many of us who hang on to its every word. 

Incited by bigots that are hiding in plain sight,
we have lost the ability to distinguish between wrong and right. 
Their hateful politics are the same ones future generations will condemn,
unless the world continues on its fall from grace into mayhem. 

Tricked into believing that democracy exists,
the enlightened need to revolt to save us from this infernal abyss.
Truth is such a rarity now, that it may as well be obsolete;
we survive on a diet of lies, and for dessert we eat deceit.

All of this corruption and chaos are a socially transmitted disease,
caused by counterproductive us vs. them ideologies.
When you treat the privileged equally they think they are being oppressed,
anarchy would even be more structured than this mess.

It’s no wonder why many turn to their faith for guidance,
in this age where human lives cost less than diamonds.
Despite looking out the window and viewing all the widespread decay,
we are still being brainwashed into thinking that everything is okay.

The very definition of insanity is repeating your mistakes,
then somehow expecting different outcomes, on different days.
Disillusionment has drowned us, we have become desensitized to war,
thousands of civilian deaths are worthless because a terrorist in the west killed two of our own.

Is this the world we want to leave for future generations,
whose innocence had no part in creating this desecration?
It is time to break the cycle, so that we can remove these chains
that bind us to our past failures. We must finally learn how to be humane.

Felt

Time stood still for nary a soul,                     it dragged its feet, aching and old.  Blistering heat that made us melt,  we were once softer than silk felt. Hallowed hearts wind whistled through, covered in bruises, black and blue. Hardly broken, but maybe bent, running on empty and love spent. There comes a day in all our lives, when our failures cut deep as knives. But you shall remain a triumph, you stayed with me, like a science. Words were whispered, curses, we'd shout, until the blood drained from our mouths. Yesterday—softer than silk felt; seems like all we do these days is yell.

Outer Space

Even in deep space, your love holds me down, Your embrace has weight, and keeps me coming, back around I was on track to be a tragedy, before we collided, like stars You give me gold, you give me gravity, and it's more than fancy cars I was a lonely planet on my own Now you are the sun to my moon I orbit you and feel at home. I was in ruins, but I'm brand new. No distance between us, could break us, or tear us apart. Not miles, or minutes, not even lightyears would be too far for my arms. You light up my galaxy, our universe exists inside my heart. Closer than the others, if I'm Earth, then you are my Mars. You keep me human, keep me golden, keep me green, and grounded. Give me freedom, give me healing, eclipse me, leave me astounded. Celestially, you are the best for me, I rest my chemistry, and let you undress me. Effortlessly, you impress me, effervescent, I'm obsessing. Astro know me, come explore me, Supernova, satisfy my celestial body, cosmo comet, asteroid showe...

Self-Awareness

  With each day I take for granted, I vow to appreciate the next, blessed with the opportunity to once again look, and feel my best.  With my feet firmly planted, my morals maneuver me through all the rest, as I have been granted another day to conquer the world and put my limits to the test.   Some may call me an idealist though I am as real as they come, as I refuse to succumb to the notion that we must all acquiesce to society's rules that really only just make us boring and numb.   I can paint my own destiny, I am the master of my domain, though my moods and momentum may change in an instant, I am grateful that they change at all, as my indecision shows I'm living, and still standing despite my many falls.   Others' attempts to understand me often leave them more perplexed than when they began, I am an anomaly and will not be mislabeled by any other man.   A human being, not one doing, I live and let live just as well, yet I am still often the...
