Blank space

Not emptiness

just not quite defined
as being in a place

there is no identifying trace
of existence here

flash forward
then back

whether there ever was
or never was...

is not the question
or is it naught

where would you place...
light/dark

dead or alive, what came first ...
the universe or the sun

pardon my ignorance
who needs a starting point

of all eternity
from nothingness,

deconstructed
to infinity plus one

let the theorems begin
starting with the whim

Religious authorities
will pass this round...

their predisposition
is quite well documented

So, lets get back
to the task at hand

First, lets circumvent 
the relevance of man
as part of any plan

we're on a trip 
through space/time
ch...

Bad Moon

Can you feel it, its coming...

Bad Moon(moaning)

its coming over the horizon
low and slow, as if though

it's waiting, watching...
maybe even stalking

there's a bad moon rising
Spooky things rising with it

something in the air
just isn't settling right

a feeling i just can't shake off
like i must beware

nothing i recognize, but...
i know its there

its got me looking over my shoulder
i won't lie... 

Seems like its everywhere 
and nowhere

moving through the shadows 
in my mind

Something cold and angry, 
ravenously hungry

got me trembling, 
i can't sleep at night

i feel like humpty dumpty, except i see 
these walls are falling on me

wolves howling like they know
its coming soon

its not surprising ...
they can sense it too

Bad moon(m...

Count my sins?

Did i hear that right
Leaning into the wind, i pause 

first, where to start

listening intently with the heart

half way up, getting tough

hoping that second wind will kick in

Sinning, done my share
that's for sure...

sure as the skin i'm in
i've been tested

i have failed more 
often than won

i've given my share...
but there's a clause

which identifies the victim
who, what, where, why, how? . 

just for fun, 
or was i just a coward

too cheap in my donation 
for the cause. 

Stupidity, boredom. 
Wasting time, endless foreplay

without thinking, 
playing jokes on friends

making them think
they're losing their minds

or waking up
wearing pink depends

in the order of bad to worse
where should i begin

Welcome in my friends to a show that never ends

Watch out the three legged dragon 
has been let out

he's eaten the republican party, 
the presidency...

kicked NATO and the UN out of relevance
from what might have helped 

clean up this catastrophe

the Supreme Court 
has lain down with swine
surrendered the constitution 
and killed democracy

now our form of government 
is a Hypocrisy

Like the wizard of Oz 
putting on a show

Don T can get away 
with everything he does

is largely good to go! 
(Run forest run!!)

The Don of Oz has taken residence 
behind the curtain of insanity, 

with his borrowed valor... 

he's Mr. Everything 
with a purple heart and a peace prize

the man who would be king. 
Let the constitution, Rest awhile

Suppo...

Virgo

what's a Virgo?
a means, a meme, a starting point,

the loose interpretation
of a dream

an astrological construct
by which we seek to promote order

in these chaotic shells
described as spirit souls

cast into this universal stream
composed of stardust

in  a human state
of being

Phoenix

Third eye open
mind lock. set, pendulum swings

time release visions. applied
although the struggle continues

too much for the out of touch
too far gone for the unprepared

no easy way to hold tight fast 
rebuild the foundation of what was/is

a divine plan treasures vast deep
to see the kingdom burning 

for so long demanding change
back to the beginning

what never was. could have been
no one fit to wear the crown

no mind to fit the throne
keys hidden in plain sight 

seen back forward

A tiny spark

Deep ...Dark places.

Yet, fed by the faintest spark

is able in its small heart to face the strongest demons

and with the right kindling

ignite a raging inferno to fuel long forgotten truths

fill what were once empty spaces in the hearth.

To feed our spirits, so that we can fend off demons

always lurking in the dark.

A tiny spark.

Swept aside. Unnoticed, seen as inconsequential.

Not even a complete thought.

Although it may carry seeds

of something fundamental to us all.

Jesus. Called it Love

Just another cue. A particle, on an element.

To create an impetus for things to do.

Something somehow essential, yet hidden

In the dark of furious forces.

Storm pilot

Been there done that...

didn't have the same ring, to him
as imagine that...

open minded, questioning anything unclear
knowing exactly How? Why?

not one to brag or boast, 
but he'd loved the idea to fly 

as a child looking up to the skies
thinking... i'd love being there, doing that

keeping in the books came hard to him
preferred to talk to those who had been there

What else could better relay the love and fears 
fixes and near misses than being there

riveting his attention to things  that happened
drew him to master what they knew 

and why it was necessary to do specific actions 
what circumstances demanded attention

to become proficient when the background
necessary to pursue excellence was fulfilled

since his specialty was worse case problems 
it became second nat...

The Creators way

Since the world first came to be

how it was created
has created much controversy

those called scientists

might have you perceive...
unifying elements, fantastic theories

And of course there's scriptures
for those who believe...

Yet, Let's reach escape velocity for a moment

reach deeper within
than anyone who's ever lived
has ever been

before the first grain of sand
found its first drop of water

before the oceans
ever spoke to the wind

Some energetic source created a voice
human beings might someday

come to understand, something greater
to do with it, than indicate emotion

channel anger, fury/rage,
extending loving warmth

in tender moments between mother and child
perhaps created the first funk band,

to the beat of drums

before words

would become further aligned with speech patterns ...

Monotones

Just like 

In the Pink Floyd song “Money”

The characteristic sound

Of an ancient cash register rings. While…

An old-style rotary telephone sings

Interruptions to an uneasy silence

Abruptly broken

By radio static as an announcer declares

We regret to inform you

That the new president Having lost his mind once again.

Went to a balcony in the third floor

And jumped off. After he’d

Dividing the entire contents of the US Treasury

Amongst his MAGA friends and fiends

Replacing the US Constitution

With Presidential pardons selling like hotcakes

Making bold moves/big mistakes

If executive orders are insights into his state of mind

his illusions de grandeur were legendary

His enablers are fraudsters through and through

The three ring circus

Executive/Ju...
