Is it me? Is it real?
The feelings that I feel…
never seem to match 
the world around me.

What if I’m lost in time,
wrapped up in some sublime 
cosmic poet’s next attempt 
at melancholy?

I don’t ever feel at home,
most times would rather be alone. 
I’m broken, yeah I know
cuz I don’t change things. 

Maybe I’m just out of place,
running long in the wrong race,
or maybe I’m no go...

Who knows 

how many 

layers

over

generations 

have been 

used. 

Sprayed on, 

and caked on, 

and smeared on

thick

for the purpose 

of covering

the truth. 

Oh ye who

through the ages 

have done this,

though 

your layers

be deep,

know this -

that the truth 

will break though. 

Not a thing

you can do. 

For all

Seconds tick as years go by,

both the same to me.

Time and space be mere illusions...

nothing’s as it seems.

Like the wind, we’re drifting on

through endless spiral dreams.

Every sense be our delusion...

nothing’s as it seems.

As a lad I’d sit and wonder

how it came to be.

Found they keep truth asunder...

nothing’s as it seems.

Run

as fast as you can.

Red shades of dismal

flowing fear

melt to the glass of sand.

Hide

in the hollow hidden dry.

Drink down the spell

of earth and hell

indifferent to the sky.

Lie

forever un-seamed.

Face down amidst

the death of sound,

black holes of melody.

Sleep

to the blood of setting sun.

From spiral dreams

look down at ...

A million things swimming around in my head.

Things I could say that should never be said.

Things I could tell that you’d never believe.

Things that I’ve seen that are too far to see.

Things that I’ve heard that are not made of sound.

Things that I know which have never been found.

Things that could change the world. Things that could heal.

Things that would ter...

Blind keepers,

mind readers,

throw them in the pod. 

Make them think they have a way

to see through all the fog. 

Let them start with nothing,

they’ll grow up and think they’ve won. 

Set the stage so from the play 

they’ll add things one by one.

They’ll come up with conclusions

thinking they’ve figured it out,

and all the while just watch them

cuz that...

Got circles in my mind,

but words don’t help me find,

so I stare at the world to watch it spin.

Got circles in my mind,

in the pond of space and time

I cast in stones to make the waves begin.

Thoughts weaving through the universe,

I always wonder which is worse -

to understand or think you do when blind?

It seems to me the polls are in

with ignorance a lock to wi...

Once in a while I hear words that just grab me.

Most times I let ‘em go by, but some get past me.

Seconds turn into hours, so I live in slow motion.

Dive deep into words, words as deep as the ocean.

Things I’ve wanted to say since the day that we parted.

Want to let it all out but…

don’t get me started.

Everything spinning round in my mind,

millions of strings I keep ...

How vast is the reach of the universe wide?

How great be the distance between mind and eyes?

How far in both ways does the length of time go?

What distance exists between God and each soul?

Illusive the answer to each of these be.

Perspective controls how we think, what we see,

how we judge and interpret the concepts at hand,

the things we consider and just where we stand...
