REINCARNATION TO A NEW LIFE

You need to wake up, live in a daze

a haze of days

Morning noon and night

It ain’t right but there’s no way to stop you

Like talking the living to the dead

Entire life living in the red,

sleep and rest in the bed

it’s my bad nothing eases the pain

pills night and day - no way to stop you

The mental and physical anguish remains the same as you push life to exsanguinate

your blood thins day by day, tire so easy it’s all breezy and good,

you examine your mind, it’s more than a faze

but it’s all good

You explain the drugs are legally prescribed by many different doctors who listen to your complaints

They prescribe pills to alleviate the gaze of hazy pain you live in

Describe pain where it maintains a domicile in your head –

it possesses you, obsesses you search for a nonexistent cure

Can’t accept the prognosis, 18 drugs a day all prescribed to the beat of your heart.

Slows the glow / the glue holding you together disappears in my heart.

Another pill won’t cure your ills. Determine the excess of the access or access to excuse

Excuse me, I meant excess the distress, there’s no elixir to create a victor,

It’s all downhill by doctor’s goodwill

I profess I’m consumed and confused;

is it the syndrome about which comes first - the chicken or the egg?

A stitch in time ain’t worth a dime, do you have the time

On the road to enlightenment, forget sentiments the buck stops here.

Watch on the sidelines while u struggle for a quick exit

Living life like you’re fit to be tied, live life on an incline

Live the fast lane

You’ll regret it, lose out in the end living inside your mind won’t suffice or change the end. Tell myself and tell you.

My words fade in the southwestern wind turning southerly

while we dismiss lists

Stuck in an abyss, lost in time, fade in the dreamer

Stare at your demeanor, lost and found, I stand my ground while Jill comes tumbling after and Jack can’t find his crown

Search through the valley of death

Surmise the crease in your pants

Cry another dance, dry tears in my eyes.

My vision blurred by raindrops falling. 

Remember to see the sea widens

fear to die in the midst of a dream becomes real

You will heal from the power of words I implore

Do You Think I’m Paranoid?

My water tastes funny

I think they put hallucinogens in there

Who is they, I wonder in prayer

Could be anybody out there, anybody, anywhere

Put a little drugs in water, a little in my tea

I feel funny, like life is a dream, I don’t feel real;

I feel like a puppet swaying in the wind

Doing what I’m supposed to

I don’t know what to do

We know who or why they are who is they

Can do what they want to

Dew drops fall on my head I heard them and they go where they want to too

I don’t know what I mean

Put a little love in my heart

I’m afraid the world’s not just about art

I’m afraid because Edward Snowden said it’s so

They can do what they want to you and me though

Cause we’re nobodys just losers on the highway to nowhere,

a road so obliterated by time I can stop on a dime

There’s a reason to rhyme, it’s a paradigm

Plus it’s so sublime

Stop and suck on some key lime pie – don’t let this line of thought be new show time in your heart

They’re going nowhere too & it’s a different nowhere, 

somewhere other than where we are, or

where we want to be
