Watch for those first detonations of dandelions
Exploded across the fresh green grass
The air is stirring like a highway
Of speeding bees and dragonflies
Like the drones buzzing overhead
Each equipped with a thousand eyes
Little cameras capturing many images
Capturing my aspirations about life
How much machines imitate nature
Life is an amazing circuitry of living cells
We marvel about anything we can make
While becoming trapped in a smog of success
Making all of this world feel in distress
Yet both for creatures near and far
Is adaptation and survival enough for all
If the future becomes our rally call
The battle to discover the secrets of life
Before we destroy it all in its entirety
Ignorance that proceeds enlightenment
Is such a cost none of us can afford
So watch out once again this spring
For the first detonation of dandelions
Exploding across the fresh green grass

Till the day comes prepare for battle and gather the cattle to the safest spot

I am ugly why some give me that sick look. I am invisible why some ignore me. I stink why some move miles away. Some call me deaf. Some call me useless. Some call me dumb. Some call me a retard. Some treat me as if I have a disease. Before they saw me I’ve had the best, the richest, and the famous smile in my face. They’ve seen them smile on screen. Before they saw me I've talked to the best, the richest, and the famous in person. They’ve talked to them on the internet. Before they saw me I've had the best, the richest, and the famous ask me to sit by them. They’ve sat with a picture of them by their side. I've owned a million dollar house. They rent a house. I've owned a million dollar boat. They own a surf board. I've owned a helicopter. They own a kite. I've owned a Lamborghini. They own a Lada. I've travelled the world. They've travelled their country. I've met the best in the world. They've met the best in their country. I’m in a wheelchair now. The closest they will get is a ride in a wheelbarrow. I walk in a walking frame now. The closest they will get is crutches. I walk with a leg brace & a limp now. They walk without a leg brace & a limp. I played lots of sports, but now I’m just one of them on the side line. I have barriers now. They have none. I struggle to do the most basic things in life, things I could once do with ease, things they can do with ease. I take pills for the rest of my life now. They take pills for a headache. My dreams are miles away now. Theirs are right next to them. If only they read what my life was like before, it will surprise them, and it will tell them there was more to me than what they saw. Before I ended up like this I use to discriminate the disabled, look down at the weak, ugly, and odd. I made fun of the disabled, weak, ugly, and odd....Anything for a good laugh. One night a friend & I stopped to help a few strangers, but thanks to that night it changed what I thought of the disabled, weak, ugly, and odd. When I was in that rehab centre I met disabled people who lived a life I wish I had. I met plumbers, shearers, cops, lawyers, etc. All who have a mental and/or physical disability now. I met rich people whose family main concern was their wealth and not them. I’ve met those who could speak many languages, but now they struggle to say one word. I had family members and strangers who knew nothing about disabilities talk to me as if they had a Masters Degree in disabilities. I had family members and strangers talk loudly to me as if I was deaf, but yet did they know they were making me deaf. I had family members and strangers who thought they knew what was best for me, but really they only knew what was best for them. So much I wanted to do & try by myself, but so much I couldn't do without their consent. I needed to know for myself what my strength and weaknesses were, and I wasn't gonna know if they didn't know. Since living life as a disabled, life is harder to live now than it was before I was disabled. Disrespect waits for me every day. Psychological abuse waits for me every day. Hardship waits for me every day. The only time I get none of that is when I’m around people with the same physical and/or mental disability as I. They hear it. They see it. They read it. They live with them. They work with them. They help them. It doesn't mean they know everything about it. The disabled world is a world they will never truly know until they wear the shoes. I try to hide it, I try to deny it, but the more I try the more it stands out. This world I live now has made me respect the disabled, weak, ugly, and odd. This is a world I’m sorry I discriminated. One day....Any time....Any place....For no apparent reason, they could end-up on the HMS Disabled. They dare not say it will never happen to them, because that’s what I said until I woke up from a 2 week induced coma. Karma can be a bastard when it wants to be aye!

PEOPLE,
IT'S WELL PAST TIME,
MARIJUANA SHOULD BE LEGAL,

OUR NATION'S EMBLEM SHOULD'VE BEEN,
A POT LEAF,
INSTEAD OF AN EAGLE

Sinew, strength, circumspect;
An abstract cast in magnesium alloy because
there's no shortage of recycled import wheels

Overstatement of a laser light show;
past tense however has had some trouble
counting backward one to ten
Has very little to do with solving for x;
the x and y hyperboles a woman's hands will trace
intimating, while animating each and every story
And iSagittari' the hand-held knows
well enough to leave the z's
and any and all them p's and q's
knows when's best them's left alone

Should the wary shopper needing further convincing;
behold the forearm of the archer
raised 45 degrees above the apparent horizon
Even if you think you're invisible and far downrange;
that intuitive arrow once released
'shall neither see nor hear it coming

Aye; it's okay; keep telling yourself;
iSagittarius moved up from least favorites
iSagittarius lining the bookshelf
iSagittarius to sweeten the oatmeal,
under the fingernails and into your life!

The most beautiful girl on earth. Every man wants to marry her. Every day, she disappears in the night and came back in the morning. One day one of the men who want to marry followed her. He wanted to visit her home. To his surprise, this gorgeous and elegant woman asked him to go back because she not a human being and cannot marry him.
She kindly told him that she is a fish and turns to a human during the day.
He was in shocked and ran back to tell the whole single men that the woman everyone thought was the most beautiful on earth and whom every single is trying to find her love was actually a fish. No one believed him but the Fish never returned back to their village again

Wal….. Prob’y it ain’t nuthin
That doggone marmot consarned me
The Mawdrator he was pound’d down ‘is gavel
Meeting ai’jouned …was all he says
Meetin’ Ai’jouned my a**
It wa’ jus pass that Aa-ternal Equaunox it waz
When ‘is nite waz gettin a chill in the aire
Passin’ round da ‘holler I waz on ma’ way home
The fust thing on my mind hopesin’
The fire still a'glowen its embers’ red
Pass the bahwn wit' all dem peeps and clucks
So goes sounds o’ late summa a’ turnin to fall
In the Shadder o’these Maountains

At the end of the path, when the rain of time will have washed away my name from the stone, when your memories will have vanished and gold turn into dark silver, will you still be beside me ?

While watching rolling waves from the distant there
Past loves come to mind
Bringing me there to here to my place of peace
These tidy sands at my feet

My mind’s eye takes me beyond the wave’s horizon
To dream my dreams of wishes to come, as this eye foresees
Who is out there?
Within and without I and it questions
That calls me past my feet and sand
Where drifts of memory and presence
Entwine and dissolve to paint in hues
Of who, this is, that I am.

We are a continuum
mother earth
birth of the stars
shining to show the path
seemingly endless
upon immediate concept

We are a longing
time may be considered
mirrored opposites
chance and choice
change unavoidable
as doubt

We are reborn
rocks crumble into liquids
an ocean to master
through deception or respect
Neptune's Fork
shield’s its source

We are a decisive god
associative problematic
Intelligent if not of choice
driven to Columbus’ edge
death & discovery

A Continuum We Are
