Hey! There’s a new drug on the scene
Incessant mumbling of the cell phone fiend
They’re called cell phone junkies
And they emulate copy-cat monkeys
...
Gaze at a river swiftly moving to the Sea
Short-life within, struggling to Be
Embrace the gentle wind blowing Free
Touching your face, blissful Reverie
...
Qualities existing in only a few
Compassionate tolerance in lieu
Of cold indifference to any acceptance
Void of the essence of relevance
...
Twilight stalking the night, predatory stance
Opens door for velvet blackness to advance
Stars hypnotized in lunar trance
Ideal setting for earthly romance
...
What if death should suddenly up and die?
Would humanity weep a mournful cry?
Or, would rejoicing engulf the world
Where new rules of living would surely unfurl?
...
Myth of freedom screams loud and clear
Clamoring to what we hold so dear
Dreaming a lasting peace will appear
Not to have it evokes insecure fear
...
Arriving full circle facing mortal clouds
Joys of life far from maddening crowds
Life is a beautiful winding lane
Happily venturing from whence we came
...
A syndrome flowing systemic within humanity
Devours the spirit like preying vultures
Touches the very core of insanity
Yet permeates all cultures
...
Grasping for the unusual in poetic beauty
Must write expanding call of duty
Uneasy feelings creep into the soul
Sending forth a chill, emotions unfold
...
Grasping for some coherence in Life
Stranded in the labyrinth of Strife
Must quickly rise with new Insight
Facing the world with all my Might
...
