Nothing

Holy spinning heads
At the pulpit
Practice nothing
And they follow:
Blind to notions
Not their own
From planted heads.
Theirs is a world
With no reality;
A tripping image
Of typeset words:
A belief in belief,
A faith in nothing.

Bash my brains
On permalum walls,
Resounding and denting,
Achieving nothing!
Raise his hand
To a stronger light:
A floodlight!
Is the power on?

Golden goblets and
Gowns of silk
“Give generously . . .
. . . We’re poor!”
Reverend hypocrite
Standing at the pulpit,
Leading the way for
Pew upon pew
Of vacant bodies
In a lip service
Mimic game.
See them stand and sit
And kneel and bless
And chant
And think of sand and beach
And dinner.

Bash my brains
On permalum walls,
Resounding and denting,
Achieving nothing!
Raise his hand
To a stronger light:
A floodlight!
Is the power on?

Not open minded;
Closed to realities
Unseen by eyes.
Hiding insecurities;
Bury themselves in
Worthless trivia.

What’s a lifetime
To an eternity?

Nothing.

Who’s In Control?

Look over your past;
Revealed what?
You learn the fate of
Soldiers and fighters.
What are you?
A modern day soldier?
A fighter?
A nothing.

So what is your meaning?
Your motive?
Something you believe
And you practice and preach?
Or is it
Something you despise?
You resent?
But you still do.

You’re unsure of your future.
You’re scared!

So who’s in control?
Maybe you?
Planning for your future security?
No! its always
A slight source of mystery.
You’re alone.
Are you not scared?

You’re scared.

The Moth

Jittering black forms;
No turning away!
Forms unceasing;
Greater projection
With minute affliction.
See its jittering,
Mesmeric frittering.
The gross dims:
Mind’s eye still gazing,
Still tracing
Forms and shapes
To be remembered
For the next case.

Carried over by eyes now glass;
Visions of forms to materialize.
The moth not thinking in his time,
The moth not knowing.

Regressing senselessly;
Unthinking levels;
Unwittingly, unknowingly
Appeasing desires
Born of earthly
Animations.

Carried over by ignorance;
Visions pertaining to dust.
The moth not thinking in his time
The moth not knowing.

Tombs for points of
Consciousness unconscious;
Unsatisfied perfection;
Insatiable contradictions
Of aims and goals.
Man unable to realize!
Moth incapable to see,
Or choose, decide
Appease, or worship.

You’ll be a moth.
You’re a moth.
It’s a pity.

Desirable Objective

Bask in your moribund ecstacy
With sickened eyes you gaze at me
You know your life expectancy
But still I see you smile at me

Was it your desirable objective?
What’s wrong, don’t you have a will to live?
The pain you suffer will soon be over
The pain we bear will linger on

Astrally uplifted to a higher plane
No more need for material gain
Why lament over lifeless remains
Ignoring the solemn peace you’ve gained

Warning

The events ahead in a dream I saw;
A sordid sight awaiting us.

Take heed of my prophetic dreams
Abandon all your pathetic schemes
And listen to my warning.

The passage of history is taking us all
Towards the beginning of the next phase.

Take heed of my prophetic dreams
Abandon all your pathetic schemes
And listen to my warning.

Human intelligence overly abused
And pointless rivalry will be to blame
For taking the cycle to its next phase.

Gruesome destruction of man’s creation
Rebirth of his animal drive,
Kill to eat with no aversion
Living in rubble only fittest survive.

Take heed of my prophetic dreams
Abandon all your pathetic schemes
And listen to my warning.

Human intelligence.
Pointless rivalry.
Animal drive.
Fittest survive.

Goodbye

The world outside beckons, I hear the sea’s calls.
To be true to my heart I must answer them all.
I must follow the trade winds on the seas high,
But the hardest thing my friend, is saying goodbye.

And travel is something I feel I must do,
So if my travels don’t return me to you,
Or if when I’m gong something in your life’s not there
That something I’ll have, and treasure, so please don’t despair.

Only three things I’ll ask of you before we part;
The first is a corner for me in your heart
And next a thought of me in each passing day,
And last, a prayer for me whenever you pray.

So goodbye, my friend, though friendship’s chains
Shall hold us fast until we meet again,
And over all the leagues of land and sea
My thoughts will pass to you, and yours to me.

Suicide

The misery, the treachery, strife and pain;
All the hardships of life have caught up with me again.
I feel so dejected in this parody of life.
I want to go – want to end it with this shiny little knife.
In my hand I hold my future misery in Hell.
And what awaits me there I can never tell.
The cold steely blade sends a tingle up my wrist
As I work up the courage to make the fatal slit.
But wait! I’m living and loving it,
Though my life be a shambles.
Today is gone, tomorrow presents another chance
To make my life more liveable.
I could make myself a new man – bring about a change,
Even though tomorrow night, I’ll commit suicide again.

The Stars at Night

The stars at night, shining so bright
across the midnight seas.
The surf, it rolls it tumbles it crashes
all in great harmony.

But the lighthouse shines forth its beacon bright
stabbing at the starry sky
Life is short, but sweet,
and times seems to fly.

Away it soars through the misty fog
off into a never-never land
That scarce resource we know is time
Is going, but never gone.
