Can you ever be pleased, mankind? Everything we try, yet we're met with night. We're nerds, unaware of the truth's light, When all that pleases you lies in deceitful sight.

My people will be purified, My enemies will be petrified: My plans...

Morning dew clings tight To thin branches reaching to the sky While gravity tugs down. Crystal balls reflect the world While keeping their secrets. Some round, some oval, Frosty beads and clear droplets, Nature's chandelier. Light breaks through water droplets, Forming bridges to the sky. Mirror and lens both, Each drop shows what surrounds it And makes it larger. Some eyes were wide open in awe, Others are dreaming,...

Come sit and vibe with me, With an open mind receptacle; Listen to my pouring out of positivity And to what you may find acceptable:- Oh, in the challenges of life, We must put all things in perspective; Particularly those that bring about strife, And propels us into being self-reflective:- Perspective prepares personal preservation.

The mind hangs in silence, All is stilled, thoughts lingering Lazily, as if in cosmic animation; No words drip from the faucet that once Streamed waters of creation, and now is Only empty air passing over an idle lexis; How deceiving is the thought, idle mind:- A dormant volcano creates its explosive flow Does not the idle mind quietly stream likewise?! There’s no creation...
