My life is a funeral dying in life living in death remains not yet to be sold beginning to old, to many deaths to many ways to call it home, the remains to be left with all this alienation building from all things, starting over and over until I find myself looking at the inevitability of mortality dealing with pain living in vain gut wrenching sadness washes through the empty heart filled with grief of ones hope, caring and staring waiting and crying building and dying, to do what rise? no fall and fall again till nothing has taken me whole taken my soul writhing at night trying to defeat the sunlight faded lines trading rhymes defeated destroyed unknown to all be known to one reality is a manifestation of thought a memory of distortion a debate that’s killing likened to feel that if I fold will I live to fulfil my role, collapsing statements of family abuse turmoil that hides away like a monster in a cave to take to the grave nothing matters to live without telling people to stay without killing people to win without losing people to forgive is to lie to take is to die to end is to start I am a broken heart.

Reality appears in the worst of times, never to be seen in the best of times,
when the shit hits the fan and nothing goes according to plan, well, that's reality,
when doom and gloom enter your room, it's reality, suck it up, take it on the chin, it doesn't matter where your going or where you've been, reality will inevitability win.

Why do people think soo much about life AFTER DEATH? Is it the same as life BEFORE BIRTH?, we must have been in the same place, we don't remember, so, we appear and then disappear, I don't know where I was a year before I was born, same place when I'm gone? Well we were not here before we were born, and we won't be here when we are gone,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,or will we?

Afraid of the light is almost all right, darkness is better, no bombs to light up the night, such a way to live, soo hard to forgive, ,, lost in pain,,, cant explain,,, but, we all feel the pain! Come to us, be free, we will help, the best that we can be!

Monkeys prevail on our Earth;
Different species, from their birth.
Yet the same Common Ancestor;
(Well, that's in fact, who we are).
Vicious monkeys commonplace;
No Humanity, and no grace.
Fighting, vicious, and violent;
(We wonder where our planet went).
Breeding like rats, and taking over;
The lowest common denominator.
More gentle people - that's Humanity;
Not war, brutality, and insanity.
When will we learn, when will we rest;
And stop the shitting, in our own nest?
For paper money - worthless numbers;
Cities fall, countries are plundered.
And I don't think it will end well;
We've gone and made Climate Change Hell.
But while it stands, our Human greed;
Will always trump our Human need.
And, I guess, it's just as well;
That there may well be a Hell.
Buddhist Hell their punishment;
For that monkey violent.
Most not far from Animal;
(But I won't insult them as well).
Animals are innocent:
It's the "monkey" that is bent.
Cunning, nasty, and treacherous;
It's clear that monkeys aren't the best.
Try to be Human, try to break free;
From that simian destiny.

Megan's Story:
So this girl named Megan, she was sitting on a curb
Analyzing a life that she didn't deserve
She was born with no money, her dad was always on the road
Her mother cheating on her father with a man that he knows
You see Megan was a free thinker, she had a mind of her own
She was popular in school but couldn't help feeling alone
That was until she met Chris, he was the man of her dreams
You know a good looking guy, captain of the football team
See Chris knew the game, he had a plan in the works
But to get what he wanted she had to fall for him first
Started texting awhile, called her baby and love
He would say anything, it was a part of gaining her trust
Then one Friday night Chris hit up her phone
He said come to this party instead of sitting at home
She was never the party type but she would go out tonight
He said good put on your clothes I'll be over in five
When Chris got to her house, he called said he's outside
She left thru the window and went and hopped in his ride
He made sure he told her it wasn't a great part of town
But she knew she could feel safe as long as Chris was around
Before Chris got to the party, he was making a stop
He had an 8-ball he was fixing to cop
He rolled up to the crib, walked up to the house
Then four dudes in all black with ski masks jumped out
They grabbed Chris, put a gun in his mouth
They said where the f*ck she at? Bring her up to the house
Chris walked to the car, grabbed her hand and said come
She told him she was scared, he said there's nowhere to run
They got her in the crib, told her to sit in the chair
She started to scream help but you see Chris didn't care
This was all the plan, Chris owed them a debt
See he was robbed for a G now he's paying them back
They tied her hands together, duct tape over her mouth
Ripped off her clothes and started banging her out
She was looking over at Chris and Chris just turned his back
He knew it was either this or he would die for a stack
They didn't stop there, one dude had a knife
And he had no problem taking an innocent life
When they were done, they threw her into a van
They closed the door and untied her hands
Drove to the park, dropped her off in the grass
Ripped the tape off her mouth, got in the van and they left
They thought it was just a f*ck but they had no clue
That little Megan, well she could keep secrets too
Tho she had died that night Karma still had a plan
And it was about to bite every one of them men
Later that night Chris went back to the crib
Five cops were waiting, they already knew what he did
He got twenty-five to life, with a chance of parole
He got what he deserved cause his heart was so cold
But for them other dudes, they got life with disease
You see little Megan was living with HIV.

Anger grows, noone knows,I hate how I feel, but twas pushed on me, something unreal,, that I cant see, to take what i am, to make me suberservent,, no,,,no,,,no,,,I refuse to be,,,, what they want want me to see,,,I wont or ever will be, I refuse,,, I refuse, why cant you see?,,,, Born to be lost,, but at what cost?It was never your destiny, you were ,,,you are,,, bound to be free,,,

A trillion years have come and gone, in all eternity it was not that long, gone in a blink, no time to think,, do we swim or do we sink?,,,are we too thin or did we get fatter,, who won the last game?,,, does it matter? Where we came from, we all want to know, created by friend or by foe?,, Are we an experiment of the alien kind? Lets look and see what we find.
So, there was a big bang suddenly,, out of nothing, well, that we can see, but it miraculously created you and me, not instantely, first we came from the sea,,,apperently,, then we grew arms and legs,,, now we can climb a tree,, dont know why that tree was there, hey, its only a story, lets be fair, lets not care, our prestigious leaders tell us its so,, who are we,, and what do we know?
Without their direction,, yes we would lose all connection, with the reality, of finality,, yes, they save us day by day, we need to listen to what they say.?????????

Whats the meaning of a poem? Something noone can understand? A crypic message lost in meaning, for those that need it most, so we write words that only we can see, decipher it how it should be? I wonder why? Its not shakespere, its just how it is,, how it is here! So, this play on words, hey,, bird song, you are gone too long, so we wait for autumn and bird song, Or wonder why we exist,,, for what reason,,,lets make a list,,, we love it here,, the pain, the sorrow,, we look at the future, we look at the past, they died too young,,, didnt last, when you wake up as i hope you will, dont be a sheep, dont be still,,, take what it is,, take it home,you will realise that you are not alone!

Hi... I am a friend...
Here to inform you that Firefly is gone.
She died Tuesday night of a massive Hearteache. She had no final words... Just let out one big sad sigh. She died with tears left in her eyes... No one knows Why... Do you??
Firefly left no last will or testiment, as she left so suddenly... Therefore, It is my Job to take over her body to tend to her unfinished business.
I know Nothing of her life... Just how she died...
So ask me no questions and expect nothing from me. I am only A shadow of what was once her.... But I am NOT nor can I ever be her.
Don't mind me if I am in the kitchen or caring for her dog. I will be doing her job, only as a shadow of what she once did... I will only be here a short while, not that I know how long, as I'm not sure how I even came to be here... Don't know why either. I just am.... I guess I will eventually just dissapear.... Fade away in the brisk wintery breeze...
