Pre-ramble


What to do, who to be

in a world of laughable acts,

orators, disaster and

facts?

Be your sensible self, I suppose.

Reasonably irrational,

find a story that’s 

yours, it

will be original

and don’t

subscribe to 

theirs.

What’s valuable to value.

What’s a memory in

what's left?

People who die in

their last sleep,

surely meet death in their

last dream.

An in and an end to a karmic cycle.

Well, that’s the medium,

this is the message.

From hats of cats and dogs,

garden lizards and 

words.

What do you relate to

in this multi lingual unfurling

twirl of culture that’s as shapeless

and reformed as 

water in every 

instant of

vibration?

A local code,

hackable genome,

a story in every soul,

and where do I 

go from here.


Mars?

or where do we stay

from here.

Gaia’s brethren,

my feathered bipeds,

friends, foes,

and 

those who don’t 

know me the way you now

do.

Do you?

Exchanging the present

for the future in every

moment.

What’s knowing but in these lines?

the next is someone else,

rambling thoughts?

To know is just to

ramble on so 

I’ll stop, 

and


Hive mind

Naïveté.

Not really knowing

your self.

Awareness, inspite

of the mess.

Messy days past,

a lasting impact.

The right

way

forward.

How was one to know

a place

through a 

movie or two.

Really?


Stained teeth at

twenty six,

reeky.

Devilish deceitful 

bullied bully

being.

Stealing in the scars.


Such 

is a world

only now awakening

to the verse.

Unreliably you and I,

by design,

in a schizoid universe

awakening, that’s life.

Sounds of geodes,

high as a kite.

Kindness in light

of brevity,

always in clarity,

through bad,

and the sadness.


Routine

Cardinals on wire

above

winter blankets 

this early 

morning.


Silvery orange to blue,

now velvet red

streamers in flight.

Building backgrounds

of brick laid

by strong men,

painted in

with fair ladies,

their art and 

conversation.


Coffee and a

bagel, maybe some

chips to crunch on in

class, she said.

Leadership of distractions,

this afternoon session.

Acidic seats of emotion

and dazed, angered,

troubled torment.

Leaved in.


Till evening on 

bed hearing the

voices go by, crying

inside and a salad

for dinner 

maybe.


Twinkling night

with bare shadowy

trees,

clothed roof tops and

vicious ice by

window sill.

Time to sleep.

Sweet

dreams.
