The Junkie's Cringe

I walked out of my building in the usual hurry
right before me
the meth junkie
turned into a tumbleof disjointed muscle contortions
"poor thing"
I thought
he was so high
it was painful to see
and he was so sensitive
rather than me moving in fear
away from him
he moved in fear away from me
to be that high
is to be so sensitive
that even the smallest
of feelings can be overwhelming
memories stilled insided me
all i could hope is that he would find
a grace that i have been given
a gift of grace we can only give ourselves
if we can only receive it
"be safe, good soul"
"find peace, go with grace"
as I offered my meagre prayers
"be safe..."

Deliverence

for rm and rm jr...because their actions caused more pain than they can ever possibly know because rm jr is gone now but rm goes on because the blood cannot wash only fade because even the saddest heart heals because they too shall have deliverance DELIVERENCE what do I do when people I love do the meanest of things in the saddest of hours in the twilight evening I try and believe in the thickness of words that make no sense I try and see right but do not understand because I never understood we were apart now I know I will never know in the darkness and quietness of hours kindness and honesty I thought we were I dreamt no other flower what do I do when I can't love less when I know that my heart is breaking there shall be no deliverence what do I do when I know the truth but I can't face it the sacred and profane I know the fruit but cannot taste it what do I do when I know the way but I cannot take it? groping in the dark praying for deliverence this should be the time when I should rise above but i know i'll fake it... my smile delivers deceit for my smile shall set a fake portrait my eyes can't hide my true sadness my eyes bide honest a prayer for deliverance deliverence...

We Are Here: The Pale Blue Dot

This may not be new...it is no less powerful! nevertheless, I believe that no matter how small or dim our accomplishments may be in the grand scheme of things they are no less important than all small "schemes" in the grandness of the universe, if quantuum mechanics teaches us we are "interacting" and "connected" then our small humanity is no less important, no less relevant than any other occurences in the metaverse (many universes)...namaste!

"The Web Of Kindness"

"The Web of Kindness"
"Although each of us view ourself as an island or an independent self-sufficient entity, this view bares no relation to reality. We are all interconnected in the vast web of life. Everything we have and enjoy comes from others."
Wishing you...

Night Gallery

remember the old Rod Serling's "Night Gallery"? stuff was just cheesy enough not to be real but the topics were so '60's in their delivery and in the sort of fascination Rod had for these topics ESP, Mental Telepathy, Eternal Youth, Being Stuck in Time Loops! The Picture of Dorian Gray! The melodramatic music that sounds the same from each Night Gallery a play of harpsichord, moog and syrupy strings! This was ground breaking stuff for the time but the stereotypes really breathe through the going for a belt of booze from a crystal decanter (a stereotype that survives today!) the token black guy the damsel in distress someone lights a cigarette now for some over used contemporary jargon pricesless!
