Confusion And Contradiction
Hold on a second and let me start my watch
I need to wind it up.
A woman leaves work to head home.
Yesterday was cold as hell but
on this fine day it's hot as hell.
So she decides to drive home along the parkway
and arriving at home she parks in the driveway.
Soon she has to leave home again.
Her son has a recital
so she goes to see him play.
And her little girl stars in a play
and she wants to see her recite.
But first she needs to grab some dinner.
Thoughts stray across vegetarians
who only eat vegetables.
It never even crosses her mind
that she is a humanitarian.
After the night's events she drives the children home.
Her son's perfo
I will explore the Earth.
Ascend the cliffs, descend the seas.
Travel with the sun to the west,
continuing to the east.
Flee heat to the arctics,
follow to the tropics.
I'll run in the deserts,
jump into the oceans.
I'll run in the jungles,
and dive into the skies.
Disappear from home
to appear in the wild.
To see, to hear.
To smell, to taste.
To feel, to live.
I will explore the Earth.
Am I really trapped, or is it a prison of my mind?
I try to run, but my body stops moving.
My mind wanders across the planet,
I can sense the vast wilderness.
A need to experience it all comes over me.
Yet I stay imprisoned here.
Caught in a cage forged by force.
Too strong for me to break,
too small for me to ignore.
It is what I want, but so far I can't.
Unsuccessful; I punish myself.
In vain, I try, I push, I pull,
but my brain beats my brawns.
I'm stuck, entrapped.
If I had the strength, I'd tear apart the shackles,
the shackles that keep me locked away.
If i had the courage, I'd break off the chains,
I would explore the Earth.
Ascend the
You used to carry me
You used to be my saviour
What I was to you
I will never know
What you saw in me
I'll never understand
But where are you now
I cannot find you
Where did you go
I miss you still
When will you return
You said you'd never leave
I promised I'd never let go
And now that you're gone
I hang on, I try to stay strong
I'm at a loss, what have I done
You held me up, but I fell
Cause I pushed you away
I lie here in misery
Reminiscing your smell
Remembering your eyes
The deep sea in which I was lost
Now forever gone
Now gone

The Most Formidable Competitor
Take out the trash
and ponder
A typical day
in gravitational pull
We use time
surprisingly more now
Than any other time
in history
Every week
there's a new internet
But nobody invents anything
a genius is an intellectual scavenger
As long as
there is Open Road
The familiar has
the most formidable competetitor
Begin a new story
Unfold it
Find it in your heart
You make everyone else
Everyone else
When I married you
I got to meet
Me
Needless to say
Through your passions
Through your love
Dreams are possible
One day
We left it all
Unplanned Plans
What a perfectly
stupid time we would have
