How can you

How can you,
Like what's new? 
All of you,
innocent,
in your plastic,
wannabe world. 
Somehow you know the lyrics to any new song,
Just the second,
it comes out.
I I halfheartedly learn too,
And spend my life,
Like you do,
And I sure do hope I can get you out,
So you too,
can finally know,
What quality means again.

  • The wanderer

    The stone wall upon which he sits is crumbling, rough and moss covered, but it is home. 
    He stares up at the migrating geese, their honks loud and clear in the crisp air. 

  • Not ready

    When the world is dark, and the stars are out 

    My mind comes alive. 

    I drown alone in my thoughts with a smile on my face, 

    And let myself get lost, 

    Because I know I’ll be found. 

  • Ponderings

    I wonder what heaven looks like. I wonder this as an atheist. Is it space, sailing among stars? Is it merely a concept, eternally to be determined, determined by fate?
