  • Bad Luck

    Most people create their “bad luck” by being ignorant, but they are too encapsulated in their own ignorance to realize that there is no such thing as bad luck, just circumstance.

  • Life

    Life, early to mid, a test of time and will, and then later it’s easy, like rolling down a hill. It’s everything I thought it would be when I was in it and yearned to be on the other side. To dip back my toe would be to swallow up my pride.

  • The cool kids

    The cool kids knew how to fit in, it was easy for them to be like the other thems. Not as easy for those who didn’t comprehend the act of mimicking others would turn you out and provide instant friends. Mis-fit is a word that at first sounds harsh, and those who did not were certainly treated as such. What is wrong with him or her, they don’t get along – why can’t they just lipsynch with the others to that same song? We were searching for more, there must be, was nobody with Columbus when he sailed the sea? Tell me more about the Iroquois – were they really so savage? I’d like to see more fine examples of a night’s ice-berg damage. Anyways, I digress, this isn’t about me, I wanted to be a them but now I see they share a path together and it’s probably better to be more like the better me.

  • Strings and shame

    Strings and shame, a complementary pair, a dire place, a joke on a rope manipulated by a cruel king covered in lace. Johnny listens to the dull rhythm of impatient-taps on the rail atop the staircase to disgrace.

    That tingle on the back of your neck? It’s the marketing chip telling you to BUY! BUY! BUY!

  • Finding time

    Do not expect to find time, as there is nowhere to store it and no way to contain it. You’ll never find time at the back of the junk-drawer, or behind the couch, or really anywhere at all. It is a fact that clocks exist, we can see them, feel them and use them as tools. On one wrist we can wear a watch, tok-tick, but without that wrist time is not seen, heard, tasted, felt or touched. So the next time someone asks where you would like them to find the time, perhaps they already know that it’s a failed mission from the start, to look for something that can be found.

  • Discomfort and pain

    When it comes to discomfort and pain, we must look within ourselves. Not just the body, and certainly beyond the cells. Dig deeper than yourself and you may locate and isolate your source of anguish, only to realize it’s actually someone elses, and doesn’t even belong to you…

  • The reasons, and soup de jour

    The ones who treat you unfairly to the soul’s bone, they will have reasons stated eloquently, in a fair tone. Just be sure you understand these are the reasons of the moment, reasons to justify their sinister plan, to bolster their ego to better themselves, they don’t care that their snares furnish cold day’s in hell to the one’s who hear the reasons why they will never be enough of [insert soup de jour].

  • Conscious-living is real-time living & balloon-cloud-emotions

    When you’re living-consciously, you are living in real-time, without the emergency delay filter. You don’t need to go far to find words, because when you’re living in real time, words are floating on balloon-cloud-emotions, and you just need to pluck them as they float by.
