Again!

And still we repeat, still we retreat, until we're backed into a corner, only then will the battle for survival become the host of a new revival, new wisdom to see, what things there could be, but twill only get lost in history. Again!

For those that know

An explosion of imagination created by one, to begin
At the end, twas only fun,
To know is the end, finally over and done,
Played all the parts mother, father and son,
And knowing means going , to start it again,
Repeat, repent, rejoin and regrow,
Start searching again for what we all know.

Simple

What I have learned about life is its simplicity,
To know its origin is lost in complicity,
Its simply way that cant be told,
Too many conditioned, stay in the fold,
If you really knew you then you could be,

FREE.

Where were you?

Where were you when Kennedy died? Where were you when Simpson lied?
Where were you when you realised? Where were you?

Memories

Memories are all we leave, of who we are, what we did believe.

Memories our loved ones hold, maybe, fanciful thoughts that were never told.

Wandering, thinking, seeing the light, knowing what is wrong,
and what is right.

Finding yourself before you go, to leave MEMORIES they can sow.

Really, it's only paper anyway!

I HATE when people tell me money does not grow on trees, its so annoying,
I KNOW MONEY DOES NOT GROW ON TREES, I looked!

But where does it grow?, not anywhere you or I know, tis in the coffers of the
rich and powerful, in foolish hands, in foreign lands, with no one who cares,
no one who dares, to lead the way, ultimately it's you and it's me who pay!

No guarantee!

Tomorrow will always come after today ends
Tomorrow WILL be with or without you or me

Today is where we are at right now
No guarantee of tomorrow, no how

So its strange to me and strange to see
Such importance placed on what may never be.

All there is...is now, mother, father, daughter and son
Be united as one, no second chance to start anew

The time is now, for me and you.

War!

Thunder roars and red sky flies and blinding lights and something dies when all that was has ceased to be the end of life how it used to be when loss and grieving become the norm looking for heaven and finding hell, is this real who can tell, a nightmare that never ends goodbye my life goodbye my friends.

Sunset

A sunset heralds a new beginning, the promise of
a golden age, a fire in the sky that shows its rage,
as its golden demise turns a new page.
