Weather Windows

lookin’ in on the weatherman
on channel 52
trackin’ green on the weather screen
looks like we’ll be gettin’ wet
then the picture flickers
the map is gone
are we finished yet?
the weatherman says carry on
it’s the blue screen of death

Beauty

What good is beauty if it’s not still beauty when you close your eyes?  (dbm)

Ditch In The Yard

i can see the muddy water
overflowin’ the ditch in the yard
and i’m thinkin’
lord…why does it have to rain so hard
it never ends
don’t know the meaning of
gone too far
and the muddy water flows
and it goes
where the muddy water goes
in the overflowin’ ditch in the yard
and i keep thinkin’
lord why does life have to be so hard
and the muddy water keeps on movin’

A Dream

i am dreaming a dream of dreaming a dream
as i dream that i am i dreaming
i dream on
on sanity’s lawn
is anything real?
and does it really matter?

This One World


we got this one world
only this one world
we’ve got nowhere else to go
we’ve got to think about everything
we’ve got to do everything we can
to keep our one world safe for life

For George Jones

his face was old and weathered
and his voice like vintage wine
just kept getting better
with the passing of time
he could sing a song
and make you cry
he could bring those tears to life
he meant a lot to me
his music is a friend of mine

If you take the time to watch this video…You might notice…Like i did…That RFK’s words are as relevant today…as they were in 1968…Clashing polarized ideologies…No matter what they might be…Liberal…Conservative…or a myriad of others…Are not helpful in making this country…and this world a better place for all people…There is no one correct idea for all of us…We must learn to listen to what others say…And be mindful of what we ourselves say…Because the rhetoric of hatred…intolerance…and absolutism is the prelude to tragedy…And then…when it’s too late to make amends…We will all be tragically wrong.

Chaos is never what you expect it to be…

Can’t We Just Love?

omnipoetry:

omni-poet:

Why can’t you say I love you
Is love proved by words?

You never buy me things
Is love measured in objects?

You never say that I’m beautiful
Is love based on looks?

We never make love
Is love just about sex?

You never talk to me
Is love conversation?

You never…
…love
We never…
…love
You don’t ever…
…love

Why can’t we just…
…love

“By Any Old Light”

caught myself lookin’ again
like i sometimes do
out the window at the bank parking lot
i look a little farther then i see
the light of the moon
shinin’ on me

(CHORUS)
and this intergalactic traveler
is stuck on the ground
the sound of the Earth
is a deafening sound
lookin’ at the moon
from way below
tends to bring me down

i’ve been stuck on this lonely rock
for years without end
i look at the space and then i see my face
i look a little farther then i see
the lights of my home
shinin’ on me

and this intergalactic traveler
is stuck on the ground
the sound of the Earth
is a deafening sound
lookin’ at the moon
from way below
tends to bring me down

(BRIDGE)
these people down here
are out for blood
they tell each other what to do
they don’t know how blind they seem
by any old light
or the light of the moon

and this intergalactic traveler
is stuck on the ground
the sound of the Earth
is a deafening sound
lookin’ at the moon
from way below
tends to bring me down

Graffiti

omni-poet:

A picture says a thousand words
The city is my picture frame
I speak through street corners
Stencil, graffiti, spray paint, art
They say it’s absurd
Because its on the curb
It’s defacing public property
Am I not apart of the public
Isn’t it my property
I just want the public to see
The lines, the shapes, the colors
That lets me be so free
So I’ll continue to run freely
And let the art speak for me

so here i am
in this cafe
sipping on my
dark roast
sweetened with
honey &
listening to the
soundtrack of
multiple
conversations
meeting and merging
in the air
& suddenly a
baby starts crying
and screaming
& the cafe goes
silent
except for the
music playing
