Wrapping My Soul

 Wrapping My Soul


I wrap my Soul

Around a Creek

Away from from Headings

Humans now seek


A Catipillar crawls

On a Fallen leaf

Seeking a Future

Toward Nature's relief


More of This

More of That

On our tapping Shoes

And tipping our Hat


Life moves on

Some very small, some large

Adapting and accommodating

And we left on Our Extinction Barge


Some reach for Space

Some reach for Tech

But in the End

Nature says "What The Heck"

Now What

 Now What


Now what

We all say

Missiles in the air

Chemicals on the way


People fleeing on foot

Few places to go

Hiding in basements

No water to flow


Now what?

Is there an end

To this horror

Their missiles now send


When all buildings are leveled

Andl humans not a lot

Will they be satisfied

With a silent Now What?

Take Me Back

 Take Me Back


Take me back

To a Place I once knew

Down that old road

A Place with few


Friends distanced

As I grew

Seeking my place

Among Places new


Once again 

Visiting my past

Walking past those Places

Many did not last


On I go

If only in my mind

Looking for myself

Far, far behind

Gotta Pee

To use use my smart phone

Had to climb a tree


So much better

So they say

With your new phone

On it's way


As far as I can see

I will have to wait to pee

I will enjoy the view

Form top of this tree

Weeds are We

Poem

"Weeds are We"

We are weeds
We grow to meet our needs
Some grow to flower
Some grow to power
We must scatter our seeds

We know not what is to come
Wild fires reduce us to some
Still we put out leaves
For a future we can't conceive
To make a flower or a plum

Throwing a Lie

Throwing a Lie

How far can I throw a lie
At least I can give a try
Truth cleverly hidden away
Revealed in some other way
A record toss lookin for a sigh

It must seem to be a believe
Not one to retrieve
Accepted as being true
Hoping going far before true
Hidden beneath my sleeve

Prince of Pretence

The Train

The Train

Time sweeps past
A train to the unknown
We ride that train
Reality soon to be gone

TV's and Social Medias
Keeping our pretenses
And at some Stop
We will meet our consequences

Pretend Concert

Pretend Concert

In the stadium I stand alone
Ready to start singing my song
Waiting for the cheering crowd
That will be so loud

The day will surely come
When my talent moves along
Cheering crowds wanting more
Song purchases begin to soar

Well for now the stadium is quiet
I will come here another night
When I become known
For a Pretend Concert to come

The Great Simplicity

"The Great Simplicity"

We move from things we don't need
And things that turn us to greed
To fresh air we can breathe
And liveable temperatures that can be achieved

To redefine things called success
Things that got us in this mess
To leave a place of beauty as we pass on
To leave a redefined wisdom long after we are gone

Inflatulation

Inflatulation

Inflatulate to show
How much you like the Show
On the edge of your seat
Just waiting to repeat
A pleasurable gift from below

Was it intended to please
Or bring one to the knees
Was it a pretended sneeze
A gift to the trees
Or drift unknown to the seas

Be Free

Be Free

You have to be somewhere
Why not be Here
Away from the noise
Away from the fear

You make the Here
By what you choose to see
By what you accept
By how you choose to be free

Dead

Dead

How do you know when you''re dead
Can you feel your atoms spread
How about all your friends
And also your pretends
Can you know what is ahead

It is a path we all must take
Not a path we can hopefully fake
Maybe we should live for today
And leave eternity far far away
When we have cookies to bake

Substitution

My new Pretend Poem

"Substitution"

Substitution,
where are ye
On the ground
Or up in a tree

Does it matter
That you once were free
Now Acting out pride
Pretending to be

Liveable Show

Liveable Show

I made my way through life
Sometimes joy, sometimes strife
Amazed how complexities abound
Confused at where truth is to be found

Looking at ancient past
Wondering how long humans will last
Burning remnants of ancient plants
To support lifestyles of nonsense

Looking out beyond the stars
Through the windshields of our cars
Will we have the courage to go
To the future of a livable show?

Red Wash Cloth

Red Wash Cloth

Was walking the road
Trying to loosen my load
And what did I see
Lying in front of me
A wet red was cloth
Hoping for mine to be

I walked on past
This urge can't last
What could I do
I haven't a clue
With a wet red stash

Well I walked on past
The urge could not last
Some one else can wring it out
And wash it under a spout
And on I go very fast

Jack Daniels

Jack Daniels

Jack Daniels my old friend
I come to visit you again
To seek out some answers
To what some call my Sins

It won't be long
Til I'm singing that ole song
Hoping answers will come
With you singing along

Will your presence come
To deliver me from
Things haunting my past
Singing that ole Jack Daniel song

Change

Change

We are Here
Was it out of Fear
Did wisdom lead
Or perhaps the push of greed

Does it matter
For the years ahead
As we meet new pressures
Very soon to spread

Only The Now exists
Only Change is real
Change for the Better
Change we can Feel

Ultimate Show

Ultimate Show

Through Star Clusters we go
Misty visions in the Flow
Colours we have never seen
Dissolving is the Inbetween

Going There PreOrdained
Time on Earth not explained
Approaching where All must go
The Place of the Ultimate Show
