future awareness

formidable foes that make
useless the desire to implement
techniques and processes
untill there are no answers to the questions
reset the generally accepted
evidence that the danger waits
as anxiety had already broken new ground
while the first point of contact
already is reduced to a pile of ash
refined when the words came from all
exits which needlessly remained hidden before
now each frustration is demonic and waiting
essential pieces to a nervous breakdown
some days a million miles high
some times tall as a dime

middle cooking day

more of one thing, less of another,
if you taste and it needs
definitely more salt and pepper,
drain the broth and make a stock,
let the marinade keep seeping on in
even the lime juice smells good in this way,
cutting everything up with the sharpest knife i have,
olives, grapes, pickles, and corn simmer,
on a bed of green bean, asparagus, and bacon,
keeping the potato and onion slightly
into but still above the gravy and reduction sauce,
nice little citrus touches in the berries on the side,
going to prepare to get aware,
dare to make it with love so that
al the bites will show where i made it,
you’re the only taste i hope to please

possible corrupt

preferred courses of action are
often taken because they are not tough lessons
sorting through a process that strengthens
systems that our personalities
imply without even being aware of it
but as you grow older
life shows you what you need to know
enduring the appeal of having no excuse
complicated by a vault empty of pride
opportunity comes to those who would grasp it
random acts of kindness can self-multiply
ransom notes to a past long gone by
upper mind when that thinking
puts everything in its proper perspective
there are many paths but only one mindset

simple preferences

sifting through the ruined things
interior can sometimes be gold
making it seem like not even bronze unless
persistence applied is just the right amount
letting a little digging help us both out
eventually nothing really surprises anymore
plenty of time to talk about the new days
red cloud matches the leaves that fall
easing into winter’s grasp
fidgeting before the storm begins to hit
equal parts hungry and hibernating
raising the temperature and
even doing what mom used to do like
needing to wrap in a blanket fresh out of the dryer
cups of hot chocolate taste better that way
empty bowls where the ice cream was
some days are just perfect from beginning to end

paused interests

people find a way to not
always be completely dedicated
unless they can get some thing out of it
so unique people ike you are
even more amazing for grasping
deep into the layers of wonderfullness of life
including your smile in the color of sky light eyes
nestled in a sweet glowing face
that shows the dynamism of a thousand flowers
ready and waiting for spring
evolving even as the final sunshine beams show
staying behind to help out
these times are greatly appreciated
stay here with me and lets grow together

reading into words

rising to start the day
evening was what motivates
all of me to get through to you
doing my best to stay focussed today
inside next weekend is where my wishes wait
needing patience ike a hunting animal
getting to play when it finds its prey
if you toughen up then you can hustle
nobody can grind right if they cannot shine right
the friends of the bottle called me from up in seattle
only i was working too hard to be fully warned
when i saw where they were i didn’t care anymore
opened my walls up
right in time to somehow find a woman i would
damn near do anything for
she makes me feel passionate and fierce

determined losses

damp days cast off the fall
empires of scared and persecuted
terror driven people who know the
eventual end of the corrupt values have arrived
reveal your ability to be shy or ashamed
may you never be so bad off that
in time you have to change your
name
except the weeks like this
doesn’t feel like you wanted it to
let the forgiveness and thankfullness wash over you
october was not slow enough but this month zoom through
saving the best for last this year, i fear
slighty silly we have a good time
every day i get to kiss you in this great life
some touches mean so much

confused emphasis

collected moments of wrong-doing
overshadow the path of so many righteous
nobody can say they are absolutely perfect
from this moment on we must
use our knowledge to perservere through
some of the worst times of our modern age
even if it means finding out a hero is false
deny instead of admit like
eating mindlessly when already full or
making someone else angry because you are angry too
performing like a trained animal is used to
having to retrain yourself is
as difficult as chess to some leaders
stay away from those with compromised beliefs
if you cannot get away then you
should have left long ago

universal dismay

unified requests from the
nearest forest of confused suits
imply they know of the sins they protected
very scared to have secrets revealed
even more frightened to lose thier jobs and
reputations they kept the truth far away from
silence being a friend they did not know they needed
all opinions broken are not easily reformed
little cracks in the walls guarding the dishonesty
distinct wrong steps that crack open this law
if people doubt then often they do not need proof
sad like a fox caught by meat in a trap
moving on is no longer a simple process
accidents are what they are calling complete cover-ups
you must find your own opinion in this future

separate worlds

some of the moments that make up the
end of day
play across the mind like a movie
except upside down and in reverse
radiating light and heat as I prepare
arrival as the energy is ready to explode
through the door and up the road
explanations not required and set to go off
wasting time is no longer an option
off in the distance the sound of people rises
roaring in the ears from the silence
like a heartbeat after a long race
during those stretched out lasting eternal moments
songs that remind me i came back for you
