Jedi Spock

Half human

Half  Vulcan

Part time science officer

Full time Jedi

Vulcan neck pinch

Mind powers

A phaser

A lightsaber

He is defined

Yet conflicted

The Klingons attack

Darth Vader waits

Kirk commands

Its not east being Jedi Spock

The universe needs saving

He is a man of two worlds

Or a Vulcan?

Kahn killed him

Nero destroyed his home world

Falling ever more to the dark side

He has no passion

But that half human desire

Remains

Existential Crises

It can’t be a midlife crises

Expiring at fifty two

I hope I have something to offer

to you

What to present the world?

What value to bring to your life?

What gifts may I wrap?

What is the significance?

The purpose behind the living?

The light in the shadows?

The godhead becoming?

Finding meaning and purpose

A life quest

Dead in the grave

What shall I leave behind?

To be or not to be?

Am I or am I not?

To live or to not?

There are many robots

Is it enough to be a good person

Nice to all that you can be?

Is it enough to live every day to its fullest

To have a worth while experience every minute?

Is it enough to understand?

There truly is no point?

The universe is not personal?

Is god truly dead?

Or are we the aged and decrepit?

Unable to feel

Too fat to swim

To hooked to move

I am a blip

So fast yet infinite

Is there an echo?

Pain and pleasure

Disgust and beauty

Damage and revitalization

I hope I didn’t wound you

Asserting existence

The land of should

Has fallen away

The dragon has been cut

Its scales shed

The camel births a lion

Falling down

Up and sideways

Drowning into

The bright center

Is there a difference between

Destiny and catastrophe?

Is it that individual?

Or is it reflection?

Narcissistic manifestation

I can’t stand hypocrites

I pray to god

I am to deaf to hear an answer

Teach me how

To be like you

Follow every rule

Bursting bubbles in the hall

With no room to hear the fall

Can you help me?

I am not my wear

I am not my body

My body is the temple

Of my essence

If you are to judge me

Judge me by my smile

The brown glair of my being

If I am to judge you

I hate to judge you

I am a hypocrite

School Days

The sound of laughter

The cheer from the choir

As the principal is maimed

Red yellow orange and blue

A simile is compared with two

As hearts kitties and butterflies

It is about passion

The applaud from the crowd

Drenched in rubber like water

A boss on the roof

Smiling with joyful hilarity

The path I walk

Memorial Day

Thank you for

Your service

Your undying patriotism

Your generous act of valor

Thank you for

Your heroism

Your selflessness

Your supreme sacrifice

Thank you for

Doing what it takes

To keep democracy alive

To keep freedom free

To keep our families out of harm's way

To cast off tyranny

Shake off oppression

Thank you to

All the men and women

Who have given their lives

To keep this soil

Free and cleansed

Keeping this country

The best in the world

A Lily Gray

Screw it lets go live

drum the night away

Feel the rhythm through the bones

And melt your ears with fervor

Screw it lets go live

Reject our condition

Our wakening dead

Our sleeping madness

Screw it lets go live

Dance the night away

Connect with the obsession

The bleeding  souls

Of the lonely destitute

Screw it lets go live

Falling away the

Hot demon shell

Opening up the pain

Of the living

Screw it lets go live

The clock will stop

And all will be still

Hair Haiku

Long and lush youthful

Short and ageded receding

Testosterone filled man

A Mans Gotta Do (D.H. Part 2 of 5)

Finally I have the change

The opportunity to revolutionize

And make better

It’s my will

And it is in action

It hurts

Being beaten

And drummed on the hood of a van

I just need a second to catch my breath

If only I had the foresight

To know what actually

Needs to be done

I have the wonderflownium

The time has come

Finally

The future can only tell

 Will I have everything?

Bad horse has got to see

Damn captain hammer

Darth Yoda

Yoda has turned to the dark side

He allowed his compulsions to tame him

His mind is warped

And now has befallen

Everything he did not want

Became a great warrior

And struck down the emperor

He did not run from the fight

Did not let the Empire win

There was no swampy hole to hide in

His wild passions

Frustrations, ambitions

And desires

Made him

He knows suffering all to well

You can’t stand in his way

It is futile to help him

He will strike you down

Darth Yoda

The ultimate Power

Consumed by the void

Empty and unfulfilled

He knows the influence of

The dark side

And lost himself

To his obsessions

Come Alive

Feel your heart

Your inner awareness

Screaming at you

At the top of its lungs

Begging you to feed it

You feed your body

You feed your mind

Have you feed your soul?

Follow that dream

That dream that you

Have had since you where little

Fly that plane

Sail that boat

Travel to that place

That place of your inner self

Your passion

Your soul

Your self

Your life

Pleading with your

Body and mind

In the form of

 Anxiety

Depression

Restlessness

Stop medicating yourself

And just halt

And listen to

That which you have always

Wanted to say

Freeze Ray (D.H. Part 1 of 5)

It’s my tool

My invention

My toy

That will free me

That will add to me

That will make it real

It’s all a gag really

Another thing to make

Me think that I

Am better

I won’t really feel anything

Other than what I am already feeling

Where would I be without

My escape?

Drift Wood

Floating through time and space

A piece of wood

Soggy with passion and desire

Drifts aimlessly

Going with the flow

Of the current

Ending up on barren beaches

And flooded lands

The log continues

On its journey

With no sense of purpose

Or what it is

It just lets the tide

Carry it from

Beach to beach

With no destination

or heading

Go For It!

Feel the heat of the grass

The winter storm in your ear

The hose trickling down your spin

Makes you feel alive

Sailing down a river

With the wind to guide you

There is no path

There is a fly in the garden

Devouring the flowers

The birds are singing

It sounds like water

The dog will hog the bed

Take a picture

Use the light

Real film

Is it alive?

Are you breathing?

Full of life

Full of love

Fill your lungs

Fill your heart

Live your life

Go for it!

Really go for it!

BREATH!
LIVE!
LOVE!

And be merry

Eating Life

Today a fish will be eaten

Sucked into the mouth of a trout

Digested and melted

Keeping the trout full and content

Today a trout will be caught

A hook in its mouth

Will pull it from its habitat

The fisherman will feel excitement

The trout will feel adrenaline

The fish will be gutted

Cooked and consumed

The belly of the fisherman

Will be full and content

A tomato lay on its vine

Eating the sunshine

It feels warm and full

A grasshopper

Tears through the tomatoes skin

Licking its warm juices

The grasshopper is satisfied

Life will feed on life

The mixture of death and life

Dancing on the world stage

For all to see, feel, an consume

Happy dining

Plain White Tee

Inspired from Kahlil Gibran’s Poem “Said a Sheet of Snow-White Paper”

A plain white tee

Was sitting in the hamper

All alone

Baskin in its white unveiled glory

Across the hamper

Lay the shirts with design

Bright colors and graphics

The bright shirts lay in the washer

Piled on top of one and other

They begged the plain white tee

To join them in the bubbly soup

To allow their color to bleed upon it

The plain white tee

Just sat in its hamper

In disgust of the suggestion

It was the whitest most pure shirt

 It wanted to stay that way

And the plain white tee

Basking in its own unveiled glory

Did remain white, colorless, and empty

Six Years in the Making

What have we been?

Where are we going?

Where will life take us?

The true story

Only god knows

Tears of joy

Laughter of sorrow

Smiles of compassion

Talk of understanding

Lips of compromise

A love that is committed

A life that is shared

Two people who still care

Six years and counting

We spend our lives together

Happily happy

And sorrowly sad

A combination

A connection

A love that

We share

YOUR Reality

Make up YOUR mind

It is YOUR mind

No one else can mold it

You have to choose

How YOU want to be

No one can make YOUR decision

Its all about YOUR view

YOUR own reality

That collides with other realities

YOUR mind

YOUR choice

YOUR reality

Radio

Dancing in rush hour traffic

The world seems a little less dull

Rockin out to the rock

Let there be music

Bombarded constantly

With judgment and genius

The effects are incalculable

Exhaustion is crippling

Heat is melting

Water is cool

Thank god for goodness

Thank god for people

Thank god for parents

Thank god for love

What is the situation?

Smoggy conditions

That hurt lungs

Let’s continue

To do are best

The best is all you

Can do

The Old Tree

I sat by the old tree

I begged it to tell me

The secrets it hides

The old tree just stood there

Unacknowledging my existence

I stood up

And pleaded with the old tree

“What does it take to be happy?”

It just stayed

Still, allowing its leafs to trickle down

I kicked

And yelled at the old tree

“Tell me what I need to know!”

The old tree was still ignoring me

Standing tall and proud

I got an ax

And chopped it down

The old tree was now in pieces

Its sap lay sticky on my hands

I made a fire

And burned the old trees limbs

The old tree finally was talking

It crackled and popped

Alas I could not understand

I lay there around its burn

Empty and warm

And looked up at the heavens
