02-29-12 Sacred Secrets Revealed

Bonus moments for the last time ever after
Last licks in extra innings to win the game
Kick back snap and let action be the judge
Haunted by ghosts from the new graveyard
Past present and imperfect for another day
Outlasting the odds that are stacked against
Underdogs and superstars who always rise
In the end it only goes to show the way to go

True stories of the ancient future
Told by misguided time travelers
Encoded inside misquoted messages
Communicated through radio waves
But interpreted two centuries too late

Garbage sold as solid gold in desperate times
Sins of all evil soldiers catch up eventually
Sneaky strategies motivated by personal greed
Misery fuels the desire for negative energy
Shameful behavior mixed with bad intentions
Relentless strategies plotted in dark shadows
Lies betray the hearts of innocent citizens
Demons hidden inside friendly neighbors





    

02-28-12 Being Human

Allow yourself to laugh and cry
Don't fool your self into believing
That you are nothing more
Or nothing less than what you are





    

02-27-12 Night Terrors

Serpents stalk us in our dreams
poisoning our unconsciousness
bleeding into our tormented souls
slithering in through our eyeballs
haunting us deep inside our minds
riding through this ancient nightmare
in shock from fright and gasping for air
paralyzed in agony over insane visions of horror
howling like mad beasts when the lights go out
until we get to the part where we never awaken




  

02-26-12 Never Waste Another Day

Today I'm going to make it count
I'm going to do all the things
that I always should've done

Today I'm going to break down walls
and make a difference where others said
it could never happen

Today I'm going to make my mark
I'm going to forge a lasting impression
in all the places where it counts

Today I'm going to give everything I have
to change the world in my own unique way
by doing the things that really matter





      

02-25-12 Summer Sun Shower

Cool raindrops splash and sizzle
on hot cracked pavement
as warm wet steam rises up
and evaporates into thin air




    

02-24-12 A Lonely Time Traveler

Dreaming away
through the dog days
makes me wonder
about lightning and thunder
striking first blood before
a blizzard of heat ascends
in full flight frozen in time
blinded by humanity's distant future
forward into the past
rewound around the clock
where time is meaningless

02-22-12 Mysterious Messiah

REJOICE
REJOICE
REJOICE

Your overlord has arrived
just in time for Judgement Day
singing unnatural hymns
praising unseen forces

Shouting brand new gospels
that were written in dreams
through special messages
to save your soul from your self

Enlightened by visions
of sacred spiritual visitations
seen through the eyes of the universe
crossing the gateway to freedom

Now it's alright to relax
and rest assured that everything is cool
because your prophet has spoken
in the language of the gods

HALLELUJAH
AMEN




    

02-21-12 I'm Going To Have A Son

I found out this morning
that my wife has a little baby boy
rolling around inside her belly

And with tears in my eyes
I thought about our grandparents
and how they'd be so proud

I thought about the good times we'll have
tossing a ball back and forth
when we go to the park

I thought about the talks we'll have
like the talks I had with my dad
father and son man to man

I thought about the moments we'll share
when we finally watch Star Wars together
and when I take him to his first concert

I thought about the lessons we'll learn
as we travel together down the road of life
finding our way through the darkness and light

Most importantly I thought about my son
and how blessed I am to be expecting him
the greatest gift I've ever been given





    

02-20-12 Food For The Flies

Shriveled up piece of rotten fruit
Dropped out of someone's grocery bag
Roasting on the sidewalk pavement
Under a blazing summer sun




    

02-19-12 Quiet Morning Meditation

Cold steel blue sky
over the Brooklyn Bridge
street lights fade out
inside the downtown dawn

Sunrise shattered
splattered across the skyline
early birds chirping
an overture of subtle melodies

Pink clouds floating
on the wings of a warm breeze
the city comes alive
at the start of a brand new day





            

02-18-12 Walking On Water

After the devastation unleashed
by the massive global superstorm
the thick dark clouds parted ways
and rays of sunshine began to shine

A golden starship descended from the heavens
as we all stood stunned in shock and awe
until an extraterrestrial angel appeared
walking gracefully across the surface of the ocean

The dawning of a new age had arrived
as we transcended to the next level of awareness




          

02-17-12 Slipping Into An Ethereal Groove

Dancing Furiously Into A Hypnotic Trance
Floating Over The Crowd Out Of Body
Laying Down Some Slick Moves Jumping
Above The Thick Layer Of Sweaty Steam
Into The Upper Atmosphere Flowing All Over
Dripping With Liquid Heat Radiating Away
Within The Stinky Funk Of Wild Physical Passion
Excited By Twisted Erotic Images Melting Around
Swinging Through Clouds Of Glitter Twinkling
Beyond A Blinding Display Of Intense Flashing Lights
Showered In Smoke Show Cherry Bomb Pop Rocks
Blowing Up Bubbles Bursting Hot Candy Kisses
Splashing In A Pool Of Colorful Sparkling Vibrations
Flooded In A Wave Of Relentless Emotional Celebration
Connected To The Pulse Of A Billion Beating Hearts




  

02-16-12 The Cruel Passage Of Time

Writing up a raging inferno
on the second floor where we used to live
creating beautiful insanity between those walls
inspired by the insane beauty of our younger days
playing the hours away without a care in the world
staring up at the stars wishing for a brighter future
and when I listen to those old Grateful Dead tapes
it brings me right back there as if it was yesterday
to our old room on the second floor




    

02-15-12 Deliciously Evil And Addictive

We shook hands and acted cool
over champagne and cocktails
wrapped inside wicked smiles
lost in endless boring conversations
building from a quiet hush to a roar
pretending to care with a vacant stare

Now they won't dare to look me in the eyes
I see through their beautiful disguise
kissing cheeks telling drunken lies
I can recognize their fake surprise
when they never even begin to notice
that I'm not around in the pretty crowd
since I simply don't show up anymore





 

02-14-12 Fractured Friendship

Old friends fall apart
under the weight of broken bonds

Bitter feelings of sadness
turn to anger and resentment

Deep wounds of betrayal
stabbing straight into the heart

Shattered trust busted apart
like a snap kick right in the skull

Shades of pain hurt
worse now than they always have

So much space left in between
across the long cold empty distance





            

02-13-12 Illumination

Follow the light
and it will guide your soul
in the right direction




    

02-12-12 Afraid Of Darkness

Up all night
with intense rage
burning down inside
sadness and terror
writhing in pain
shaking violently alive
shattered beyond words
suffering serious exhaustion
under heavy sedation
hypnotized by madness
fighting off nightmares
frightened beyond fear
shivering warm chills
dripping with sweat
drowning above water
bathed in evil
where shadows lurk
silently strange in
absence of light
reflecting wicked seductions
washed in blood
turning black and
tortured with thoughts
of insane paranoia
delivered by destiny
knocking down doors
suddenly startled awake
drifting off into
dreams about fire
engulfed in flames
running away from
happiness torn apart
before reaching salvation
at the end
of the journey





  

02-11-12 Not Something Scary

An ant walks down the stairs
I think he falls down the stairs
Or maybe he falls madly in love
With a giant blue buffalo elephant

Spiders eat boiled eggs for lunch
Like a bouncing baby basketball
From an outer space football game
We have fun using our imagination
