WINNING OR LOSING’S THE SAME

Always hear it’s how you play that counts.

We gave up our rights a long time ago,

So no wrongs, no rights

Only moments in time matter,

Impermanency, guts and bones,

Blissfully my pains survive

Explain away foul overcast weather

Umbrella soaked through,

Ignore gathering storm clouds

All about who you know

Who you think you know

But each day you know less

Care less everyday, careless.

Someone cares, someone

Somewhere someone cares,

Wonder why

People care about being right and winning.

Refuse to see they’re wrong.

Always someone else’s fault

Deny it all!

Losing is someone else duty,

Whoever’s there is here to win,

Can’t see their namesake beyond the cloud.

God says, “Pray to me, I’ll pass your name through humanity.

Fool’s gold, can’t win, can’t lose …

So finite down to here we stand today

Adverse time flits around in my mind

Believe we see eye to eye

Fame and fortune, silver platters,

Invest in harvesting DNA

Imagine they’re alive

In our planet’s new dawn,

Part of a stronger race will survive and thrive.

No one knows.

Words touch, we make momentary contact.

You feel you know me but I’ve never met you before.

I feel it in my bones.

Earth embraces spirit.

No one survives.

Say, betray, survey,

Afraid to eat tempeh  

They say it’s good but soy is one of the worst MSG offenders

I avoid.

Time promenades, afraid of no one,

Time has no demise

To pay the price

We march alongside her

Prisoners unwilling to be free

Sing in her flow, sting in her flow, glow in her flow

My body aches as time marches through me

Love courses through my veins

Bane of dreams, misted breaths,

Hurts hold on,

Sustain in sequestered drawers in our mind

Pull out to analyze sometimes,

Sometimes leave the drawer closed

Closed like a needle thrust deep into muscle,

Drawers exist to open

Opening and closing seasons,

Allergic to time, sounds flit around in my mind

Time is repugnant

Sensations stud me, prod and goad me

Like I’m a goat in a herd

Thank God someone gives meaning to hate

Preach love pounds pavement,  

Only love can save us

Follow like Roman slaves clawing to get in our graves
Oh Green, Green Rhapsody - I pray for phosphorescent mystery

Foster Peace In a World of Abuse

Propagate hope, knowledge widens the scope,

Many see trickle down abuse encompassing earth

Come see, you know whom I mean!

They ~ the big they, you know who they are,

They will not give us back this glorious great land.

They fight for coin and silver.

Slowly we go to slaughter, 

Like pigs, goats and cows,

We kill ourselves in their sham.

Forced to pay more than our share of taxes

It’s only paper you know, 

No more gold in Fort Knox.

All the gold owned privately

They're in charge of our government

Symbols lurk every place you see

Small, insidious, devious concerns surround us, 

Controlled by society, daily news, 

TV, our jobs families, forget our conscience

Our desires prevent our seeing

Facebook and twitter rule you can’t see

Enough to spin your head, dizzy,

Can’t comprehend why Facebook

Warns you not to add more friends,

You can only add so many each night

Isn’t adding friends a boon to Facebook?

Every day it becomes more difficult

to understand the world I’m living in

They are not going to give our land back

If we don’t fight for our rights,

if we don’t take earth back from the usurpers

who have stolen our planet,

We can’t inherit the earth by common assent,

agree our land is not sold for gold,

this land is god’s gift,

is not ours to give or buy,

but to love and care for 

like we do our children …

This land is your land,

This land is my land
From California to the New York island;
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream waters
This land was made for You and Me.
