To be or not to be
this isn't a question
as I play at the words
swimming in my head
...
at times when ocean breezes breathe
the wave starts
the sea speaks to me
...
I remember your last breath
I held you in my arms
Your warm heart
Your loving kiss
...
Enough of the god sick wonderment
Homesick madness
Find your peace and leave me mine
You’ll find yours all in good time
...
At once & for eternity
You were my muse
Different lines of time
And shapes of worlds to come
...
Arms and bare skin
Fingers interlace
Hands to face
A trace of strained pleasure
...
Forever and ne’er
shall I sleep
if it was I what made you weep
it was not intention
...
If I die today
I die Happy
If I die today
I die Sad
...
I remember a time when we danced in the park
high and weary but together we understood
we saw each other naked in the sunrise
and knew then that this was all too real
...
might i have a word with you
could i share some time with you
would you have some love for me
...
I’d rather be sleeping
It’s what I should do
I’d rather be sleeping
Than be here with you
...
I read the news today
Oh boy
This unlucky woman
About a mile away
...
I miss cool, overcast days
Sweet drizzly rain
Green hills, grasses and trees
A tasty buzz and a cool breeze
...
Left Coast first-break Season rain
Cold beer, Warmer air
Lightening crackles in late summer afternoon
Thunder rumbles overhead
...
Raise a glass to those who come before
They drank here
From many a foreign shore
They’ve remained in spirit
...
Wandering, wondering, looking and searching for answers. Although, I think I have the answer to the meaning of life. I would share it with you, but it's much more fun if you try to figure it out for yourself. Life is a journey my friend. Live. To overcome an obstacle or an enemy. To dominate the impossible in your life. -Paul Simon)
I Come In Peace
I am an American
I’m a Christian
A Jew
A Muslim
A Buddhist
And Hindu
I am you
I am Iraqi, Swahili,
Indo-Chinese,
Pinoy, Ruskie.
Afghani,
Indian,
Pakistani
Down under and around these
Another beer please
I live in south London
And south Boston too
I am Lesotho
I am free yet enslaved
To the dreams of my fathers
And the antiquated hatred of my brothers
And sisters,
My mother is yours
Our sons are fore
This is the light
The way
We are one family and species and race
We bleed the same
We are born
We breathe
And we die
In the same
Another day
Another way
But we live and die
So brother, let us live
Let us breathe
Let us fight the real fight
To see the light
Of love
And peace
And a safe sleeping night
For our kids’ kids’ kids’
I am everyman
And I am none
I am you and I am no-one
I am here to enlighten you
And to give you peace
If you want it
And you need it
So ask for it
I bid you Peace
-One Who Waits
