fatal confrontation

from the moment she
arrived in this world
there was no doubt she was a good person
about the time she
let a captured
catfish back in the water
only appropriate and righteous actions
nearly every day occurred to her
fear was not as strong in her as the
right thing to do was
over the years the causes that
needed addressing called to her love of
the positive souls that supported them
after all the information comes out
these bright shining lights who were lost
in the fight against injustice and intolerance
on this night
now we remember her and her passions

remember positivity

realize that you are
ending your past and making a new way
maybe you are finding yourself here
environmental touches that
make the night sky outside my door
bothers and sisters to the sun, moon, and stars
endure the cryptic sounds and
ready yourself for symbols of your life
put the mask on a shelf while you
open your eyes and see yourself correctly
some of the scariest times are when you are alone
if the wind picks up
then you are on the right path
implement the change you need to receive
vital signs are good and
into the tough times we dive
the hotter the flame, the sharper the blade
you are my total eclipse

stolen desires here

Sometimes it seems that

The sun can be shining and it is still grey

Other than the coffee that is not going to taste sweet

Letting myself show a feeling is

Every bit as unwanted as

Never receiving a birthday gift again

Deprived of the chance to tell

Everyone who needs to hear your voice

Something that could make them feel better

Is now going to be gone forever

Red will never mean a valentine after this

Each slow song will have

Some twinge of loss and doubt and regret

Hate has caused a sick mind to

End the true  energies of too many good souls

Rise up and show your face and unleash your voice

Every person knows that we have to make a change

attempting privacy

aged by the scarring news
testing your patience and firing your emotions
though the camera that captured
emergency society in total abstraction
making a choice but do not ignore the battle
preying on those addicted to destruction
turning another dial to the hottest
increase awareness and reach out to like minds
narrow minds must be
grateful that others exist to join them in the mud
propel the venom from person to person
reflecting the disgust of this time frame
inside a few subtext of the ages
veins of ignorance run through
all the years that governments have existed
culminating in the control of population
years of misery have roots therein

personality system

people can be the cruellest animals
even when the pain of thier past
rolls around inside a broken mind
still they do to
other people what ruined thier heart to begin with
near he statue of
a man from a much more oblivious era
little hearts and narrow minds
increase the hatred in thier communities
taking a message of solidarity out of peaceful hands
young and old opinions of equal ignorance
some of the worlds worst problems are based on animosity
you either stay aware of the world or it runs you over
so when someone gives thier life
to the cause you must give proper respect
each of us could be the compassion
making the world a better place

enduring process

empty as our street at midnight
nearly no noise coming up into the air
doing a call into this vision of the mind
using the concentration to construct a
red sky observation of wisdom and sagacious ways
if there is a time that is truly ours
nighttime is that time
gasping at the need to feel really complete
progressing to this
relishing the private time
on an occasion in this crowded world
clearing any conditions that stop relaxation
eloquent as a song written at three in the morning
some of my heat is absorbed by you
sometimes the morning lights up at midnight

big salty ocean

below the waves sit the
immediate fear of where your soul
gets the power to keep going on through
sad times that should never have the power to
alter how you approach
little troubles wich should never
take down your amazing glowing positivity
you have found a way to swim
on top of the surface of liquid
cried out of the eyes of the
endless giants of the suffering of the ages
amassed and finding the low spot to flow into
now rise up and crush your anxieties

destruction circus

dare me to do something and
everything you say from there will taken with a grain of
salt and i can say i do not
take advice from too many people in this world
really kinda had my own system for everything
unless i find a significant improvement i can modify
confident i got my own back from now on
that makes me able to do what i should
in a knight-hood service for
one most special woman in this world
not having any regret and now addressing
compassion and living with honor
i am fighting the good fight but
right now taking care of what is important
can out weigh anything and everything
unless you know who you are you
see how to love what you do

preventative confidence

part of a person’s brain
really doesn’t know what to do when
ended time here in this existence happens to a
very special person in this world
except that is not the kind of stress that helps and
nobody can deal with this surprising death
taken from this life too soon
attempting to keep composure about it
there is a great emotional seeking
in the air around the memorial and
vital good friends are in a sorrowful standstill
exceptional statements freeze before
coming out of the mouths
of those who really had one more thing they
needed to say previous to passing on
for all of us the regrets are common
inside our bodies a clock is ticking
deciding for us how long we have
experts cannot tell what will be your final moment
nobody has an exact grasp on the future
can you give kindness every day and keep in mind
everyone has been scraping through private struggles

altogether concerned

after putting down the shovel and
letting an ice cold drink get poured
take the whole day to calculate
only one phrase needed to bring things together
getting the sun on skin for a few minutes
even if i had work gloves i wouldn’t wear them
torn between al the things that need to get done
half of them outside and the other half inside
empty the soil then
return to exactly right here
can you come here and just talk or a second
or would it be better if that doesn’t happen
not feeling like i should ever speak again and
can not think of a reason to ruin this moments silence
equally tired and hungry by now
red tints are starting at the edge of the clouds
new light reveals the same old mistakes
ending up filthy hands and sore feet
do enjoy exhausting tired end of day
