relocation steps (a hymn)

Posted on June 5, 2019 by jaybeasley2
ready before I knew it,
equal parts excitement and worry won’t let me stay put,
laying here wide awake at three in the morning,
opening eyes long enough to see through the dark,
cannot stop thinking of the next
amount of decisions which will be coming soon like
tongue hanging out, driving fast as I can,
in the direction of the goals and ideas I command,
outside the nightly silence is deafening,
nearby the mighty blue light begins to rise, the
solution to the hesitation station,
taking trips in five directions all at once,
eventually being attached to nothing,
perhaps you are my only inspiration,
staying under your same set of stars

simple returning song

Posted on June 4, 2019 by jaybeasley2
suprises come from where you never were,
increasing your first fears and
making each day like a tense conversation,
playing upon your anxiety like a used steel drum yet
letting the true relaxation sneak away into the sunset,
escaping like a prisoner trying to break free,
release the worry once you command your actions,
evolved past the cage you were raised in but didn’t want to be,
take the turn that fires you and inspires you
up and then don’t look back anymore,
removing the message your time arrived for and
now you know your number is up,
it will be this new age and change that fills your cup,
notes to a rhythm you wrote all in your head,
get as much done as you can before you find yourself dead

gem theory

Posted on June 2, 2019 by jaybeasley2
the desire to destroy must be so
strong in the ignorant people who
cannot understand the full amount of
intricate facets in the surface of life’s
jewel and if something is different from
the place you are coming from it must scare
and infuriate when you have no ability to
truely understand and the pieces of that only
seem only more confusing when you were raised
with intolerance and hatred as the basis for all
of your beliefs and yet the challenges that exist
are nothing once you have come to terms with
a land filled with people who share the change
that is coming like a glacier that can wreck
the landscape if the ignorance keeps on
holding on to the power before the
walls come tumbling down

copying universes

Posted on May 31, 2019 by jaybeasley2
conflict is the feed of the week
only showing its head when
party has decided it is hungry
yelling opinion gushes like water
interring the fuel of an evil soul’s cactus
not a single night
goes by that you shouldn’t have your guard up
until the end of time just stay wary
no relaxation without being aware and perpared
intending to adapt if different than actually changing
villified by the interest in fighting the good fight
every day torture of the soul sort
realizing that you cannot do this forever
stays with you once you have arrived there
every day behind the eyes
stays my motivation to guard for your future

alive completed

Posted on May 26, 2019 by jaybeasley2
as the final days approach
little signs of life are flickering
in the bits of time and the
very obvious symbols that are recognized
extreme actions are so esily impaired when
coming to the conclusion that
only the most severe reactions will work anymore
making commonplace the need to vent or
pleasing only yourself
like all the other stupid selfish bastards
enduring thier own disconnected illogical minds
they are what is wrong with the world
eventually i come back home and realize i
don’t know what positive thing i would ever remember without you

moonlight steamboat springs

Posted on May 25, 2019 by jaybeasley2
moon shine shifting rays,
off among the clouds,
opening a new door,
new doors cold as they usually are,
like eyes closed exploring space,
getting the sun and snow moods.
having no distractions after
the time you have to suffer and
stay along a sharing of our wisdom,
tentative and shaky as your electricity is,
every day wake up spring,
and every night go to bed winter,
may each small imagining open to a sharing
beneath the spirit we woke to,
over my soul,
as a building is coming in the storm,
they never warned us as if we
stayed cruel in war as the trojans do,
promised the sad little
return to what never existed,
is the mad fever of a painful time,
needing a cup of coffee and
getting three hours of chatting while we open up,
so is our humanity once confidence is here

concern

Posted on May 18, 2019 by jaybeasley2
completed as a
last ditch effort
like still breathing
but trying to
confirm a time
of death and
being as broken
as possible but
still expected to
attain efforts in
a normal life
yet as long
as you can
fool yourself then
you should be
able to do
that to others
when needed and
almost everybody carries
around within themselves
a hidden pain
which can be
quite a heavy
anchor around the
neck if you
do not make
friends with it
or at least
see it for
what it really
is and then
your world is
reshaped and it
never fits in
that box again
no matter how
hard you try
or how much
you think about
her sigh or
when you wake
up way too
early and you
needed that sleep
then you never
know when you
will get to
try once more

tortured awakening

Posted on May 16, 2019 by jaybeasley2
tonight cannot arrive soon enough,
only the clock is moving slow
right now and the preparations still are made;
that, right there, should be enough to ease the pain,
unbelievable amount of discomfort which
returns each morning after what rest is achived,
encompassing the hurt which was made here,
definitely carried with me everywhere,
and a reminder of why the time is appreciated,
when each next day could be the last one,
as driving fast and doing lots can not help you,
keep gratefull regardless of impending moods,
ending inclinde to be worse than the beginning,
nothing is worse than not getting to say goodbye,
it can be worse than saying goodbye when you don’t want to,
nobody sees my scars like you,
get over here and kiss me you fool

possible options

Posted on May 11, 2019 by jaybeasley2
perspective can be the
option between living something fulfilling, and
suffering the day, long with fools and distractions,
should it happen to you then you realize,
in each of us is the ability to
blank out that negativity that modern
life is known to thrive inside, because
each of us is just a collection of particles,
organized at this time and place in this way to
play our part of this stage of existence, and just
take what life is bound to throw your way, yet
infuse yourself into exactlywhere you need to be,
open up to the ebb and flow of being, and
nothing can halt creation, disintegration, reformation, that
simple observation of reality can reveal
