Club

Pounding thing,
Artificial thump they call music
Is a beast and a noise
An aural irritant
Blithely it grates at my being

Some are inspired to move
None have their mind provoked

It isn’t art
It’s just a commercial
It pushes no boundaries
Supplanting the mediocrity
With the mediocre

It disgusts […]

Escape from Choice

Life’s changes come
expected or not
Sometimes we’re prepared
Sometimes we’re in a state of blissful ignorance
Or wistfully ignoring
the inevitable path our actions have led us to.

I fear not the coming end.
The escape from complexity
to clarity
or nothingnesss

Either is the greener grass on the other side

Uncontrolled

There is this agony inside that uncontrols me,
usurps my will for rational,
usurps my temporal being.
It uncontrols me, without revealing itself
to that being uncontrolled;
it hides itself
from me

it is me

it’s obvious to those around me
but only the closest;
only the few who can be hurt

Friends

Sometimes I wish that a moment
just wouldn’t end
It’s the moment when I look at you
and understand
without question you’re my friend

it’s when we laugh together
and challenge to do more
and better things than ever
we had done before

It’s in that moment that I know
you’ll always […]

Worth

Few things in life are worth
Living for.

Far more things in life
Are worth
Dying for.

Goodnight

Sleep eludes me
Leaves me to my thoughts
An incessant barrage
Of menacing
Sleep- depriving thoughts

That won’t let this weary body rest
This weary mind
Won’t let me rest
And enter that peaceful state
In which nothing matters
Nothing perturbs
Nothing distracts but dreams
That take me […]

Walk This Earth

To know this earth
I walk this earth
I walk alone
in the company of every
living thing around me

I walk the earth
to know this earth
To know myself
I walk alone
in the company of every
living thing around me

I walk the earth
to know myself

Ka Hula Pika

You move like waves of emotion
undulating in endless adulation
of a world around and within you
that every breath is inspiration
every facet intertwined
with the existence once defined
in an ancestry you carry on

I’m touched by your emotion,
the stories you’re able to tell
the adoration you have for […]

Befuddlement

This is not clear
befuddlement drapes across the face
expressing the indignant

confusion
that this technology incites.

We move forward in a world
unclear
of where we will be taken
where we are headed
or how fast we accelerate towards

a forward-thinking
forward-leaning
world

We’ve lost track
of the […]

Inadequate

There is nothing here
worthy of the
wild frustrations
in which we seek
to shelter ourselves
from that which would do us harm.

Ourselves.

There is only an inadequacy
that makes us feel
the unique indispensibility
of our inadequacy

something to drive us onward
forward
above and beyond
