Posted: 6/20/2007 1:58:38 PM | even time can't stop our song
wailing to a rhythm that's feeling wrong
the beat of a heart so broken and soar
can't follow that tune for very much more
watching the pace of the people I read
waiting for inspired creativity
spaced with tears and bitter coarse chokes
the words just spill out of minds oh so broke
the cost of a romance that never took shape
seems like a waste when measured by tape
put on the table with all the dead soldiers
its only reflection makes us feel older
now I could give a story of hope and true love
to all the people I've seen push and shove
friendships and relations that just don't fit
this new world order of sarcastic whit
They'd take that spirit of good positive growth
toss it in a bag with things they hate the most
shake it up franticly and pull out a piece
then say look at this and call the police
Now I love the interactions I find in here
just all the whining and crying in beer
gets to my spirit ever now and then
causing some poison to spill from my pen
you say I'm a liar cause I'm on a keyboard
well that may be true for this moment's reward
I do use a pen every now and then you know
the paper on the internet well ... it just doesn't go.

Posted: 6/22/2007 1:08:32 PM | Dare i speak or utter a word
Dare i write a what might break
Loves sublime light
Some one for everyone
I heard the words today
song in some song
Of soul mates here on the radio
My thoughts turned to you
And wondered how could it be
That we found each other
In a world lost at sea
I thought about how I hadn't written in so long
Like holding my breath
because i didn't want to surface
Surely if i woke from our wondrous dream
I'd find myself bobbing in a desolate sea
One moment in infinity i'd not want to wake
Is the one in which we are holding
Each other so close
Why do i fear someone my burst
Our little bubble to find we're lost
Feeling i'm not worthy of such a gift
Not done anything worthy
Of being Loved so deeply
I guess thats what makes it just what it is
Two people being just as we are
Loving each other the only way we know how

Posted: 6/22/2007 5:12:10 PM | That wern't crazy at all
the sentiment almost makes me ball
you tell it like a warm house call
think I'll reflect while feeling small
then hopefully recall
one of my own personal memorable moments
that keep my smiles alive
help to bridge momentary gaps
so my spirit may survive
maybe even thrive
with a little jumb n jive
just not too close to the ole bee hive
Keep lilting away
with what you can spare today
in some solitary moment of play.
hey hey

| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- its not for the earth -:-
Posted: 7/1/2007 4:07:11 PM | just thought this should warm up a spot in infinity too
[its from first last]
still warms and revives us with the end somewhere
when it actually meets us I wonder about there
like the abyss or a black hole swallowing all matter
or atoms from a nova that explode and scatter
four billion years the earth has warmed space
for four billion more she will try to keep pace
then father sun will engulf all that she was
leaving nothing but to show for all those horahs
Its not for the earth that we need to repent
its for our children's children's children
who will have to pay the rent
they will need food and shelter just to survive
to pass on some semblence
to jitterbug and jive
Man has an ego that gets stuck in the id
its a shame for the selfcenteredness of that kid
maybe maturity will temper his bones
maybe he'll open his heart for a home
Too bad about the disaster that befell those poor saps
nature just seems to now and then take a crap
on some forsaken or forlorned peaceful place
not because they forgot one day to say grace
Its not for the earth that we need to repent
its for our children's children's children
who will have to pay the rent
they will need food and shelter just to survive
to pass on some semblence
to jitterbug and jive | |

| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- shutdown -:-
Posted: 7/10/2007 6:44:47 PM | Every summer the sun give us thought
plying the pavement and sweating our socks
turning some stomachs into big knots
food left out quickly turning to rot
drinking more water that I see in the lake
yet still so thirsty I'm starting to shake
this job starts up when they shut yours down
we put in more robots to change the sounds
whining of lost jobs in manufacturing
ludites inflexable lifestyle you bring
change will occure despite what you do
for global economies are nothing new
competition for what we will drive
is keeping this boom in construction alive
letting new housing and plazas appear
where at one time the land fill was deer
now its old pavement and stumps from the woods
rusted out computers and cars without hoods
poor kids will grow up to be poor adults
or kill each other over blue big gulps
gotta go out an make what you can
pretend that this progress is not out of hand
that science and concience will lead to a win
with solutions to problems before they begin
Positive thinking and friendly advice
is looked over quickly then rolled with the dice
spread across green fields like stale peanut butter
or used as a balm on some bovine's tender udder
milking the fruits of the labour force
teaching the future without any course
screaming at children to work like a horse
in a forgotten code invented by Morse
Hmmm
so now with patience
I install the cable
its not that hard
with a knowledge
being able
even in old
with grey brown hair
tailed like a pony
who really cares
so often I see on these big heavy jobs
used to be hippies
lots of Bobs
Joes and Dougs
Alfonse and Kraus
Hosse an Joseppe too
we are all just tying to make do.
in a get it done yesterday zoo
seven tens until we are through with you
they back on the books
don't bother to look
for security
maturity
or any other endearing thing
from this little corporate shutdown fling. | |

| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- "Bad Taste Society" -:-
Posted: 7/20/2007 6:26:46 AM | resurrected from First Last.........
The second to last line, the next is for you to fill...
and if it doesn't rhyme well that's no reason to kill.
[I was late but hey this works for a second rate
poem that is showing some ecological insight
into how the world may try to be right]
From a world that has such bad taste in society
I expect very little outside of general propriety
Seeing the way play can have collateral damage
brings me to the belief we'll never manage
the ecosystems we distort for our gains
evolve independently from unseen strains
microtechnology may help us feel we have a grip
but microbiology lets us know we only see the tip
our iceberg is melting right before our very eyes
the extra carbon dioxide is rising high into the sky
the protective ozone up there is falling to the ground
we don't hear its screams because of our machines' sounds
There is a future though it is looking very bleak
when nothing is left it'll be inherited by the meek
That guy was right two thousand years ago
he just missed the part about the acid snow
Our cities just don't want to turn anything off
instead of heeding the warnings they turn and scoff
air-headed liberals shouting sour grape slogans
is all they can see even when they are choakin'
Bowling for billions in the power ball dream
or freedom 85 for all the workaholic queens
it doesn't really matter as we pile up the trash
as long as our bank cards don't run out or crash
We could run away to the Antarctic mountain range
try to hide from a society that feels way to strange
They would find you pretty quick by satellite tracking
then put you in jail because tax payments are lacking
so you may not much like our insane society now
you can only change it from the inside some how
stop buying all that crap you don't need
turn off that t.v. and start to read
then write some letters to government folk
try not to make them sound like a joke
real long hand gets more credit than an e-mail
as long as the postmark isn't from a jail | |
|
| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Anything Goes Boom -:-
Posted: 7/20/2007 6:34:19 AM | And just because I haven't been so active lately ...
here is another one .....
....................................
I know it was bad that day on the ground
when those big bad buildings tumbled down
and thousands of people died in the dust
so we left twisted steel standing to rust
Now its a reminder of the shocking way
some people found out about heaven that day
In a different light at the same point in time
with an alternate space where wedding bells chime
some couples were celebrating and want to still
on that date that for so many just gives a chill
though some died horribly others were born
in future their celebrations don't you scorn
Now O'Sama and the boys will rot in hell
until then they have to live with the smell
while hiding in caves and filthy hole
trying to rejuvenate their rotting souls
Plotting more carnage and terrorizing the pawns
Makes me wonder how minds twist into wrong
I know it was bad that so many did die
let's not forget the real reason why
global inequities and financial greed
led these fanatics to plant evil seeds
This always makes me wonder what to say
after their ugly job screwed up my birthday
Young impressionable idealistic minds
will go along willingly with the proper signs
Satan's pawns always make them so clear
no need for the gas you just have to steer
Don't forget Oklahoma was home grown
everyone should watch what's being sown
As tyranny rages all over the globe
armies fight battles for treasure troves
not seen in chests of silver and gold
but in the power all the elitists hold
Plastic combustion in a throwaway world
ingesting the must haves like natural pearls
Oil is just one the more recent gems
placed in the crown of elected men
used to wrap our goods and bads
to make us more of what we had
burning the trees that others will need
to fill swimming pools with chardinay greed
Its always the little people that pay
for everything everywhere everyday
we work at slave labour camp rates
to build the mansions' guilded gates
They give us loans to buy health insurance
three part time jobs to test our endurance
We are the ones who's sons go to war
private foot soldiers settle general's scores
most major problems are constantly ignored
for political purposes of the constantly bored
Promised to be given our just rewards
then locked outside and blatantly ignored
Now this all may seem so like sour grape
making vinegar instead of wine to escape
but actually its just another form of whine
about the big picture not being very kind

| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Bliss through Zen -:-
Posted: 7/22/2007 7:09:14 AM | brought to infinity from Unfinished Business
-----------------
Don't we just love a tug from the rug
while slugs fly high as an alibi
between a whisper and a why
lazered plasmatics injected for fun
leaving the other in charge of the gun
gone not one but many more times
wasting false hope on over the lines
hard to find without g.p.s.
can a novice get out of this mess
dressed to impress some classic fantasy
lost inside calculated reality
no child of nature ever thought of this
inspired by poems about bliss
crossing the river despite all warnings
sleeping like a baby till double digit morning
Woken by sirens all over the block
not yet able to talk of the shock
walk with determination until you are free
set it in stone for eternal possibility
cast no doubt with that iron replica
then swing for the feeling of utopia
watch that ball sail over the trees
spin fluidly through with shoulders and knees
its time to recall the motion of then
embracing the now with all of your Zen | |

| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Porpoise Purpose -:-
Posted: 7/26/2007 7:01:12 PM | [reposted to infinity from Unfinished Business.]
Our slick fish like cousins out in the sea
playing with wakes oh so carefree
smiling for tourists well that ain't for me
I think I just go watch some TV
I hope you come up more often for air
then you will see that we really do care
all of the good things you say and so
are out there for us to try to do too.
Give us a smile and some day a kiss
then we too may find me some bliss
stretched like a canvas all ready to paint
this new coat of white is making me faint
Please add some colour with strokes oh so fine
for then I know it will open my mind
with all the possibilities of life being good
maybe I'll venture away from my woods.
Weather sorta sucks right now around here
but that's how it goes this time of year
birds are still singing when they find my food
if I stay on this tangent I won't be too lude
In younger days with older patterns
swinging tents and coal oil lanterns
dancing round fires with naked delight
I partied so hardy all through the nights
daylight would come and I would go
back to some job in the big T.O.
smoking through dirt and construction crap
race home at four just to take a nap.
Life felt so endless with expanding mind
doing for others when others were kind
toss in the ditch any loser head case
that got in the way of my human race
Youth can be curt and sometimes lame
not paying attention to suffering and pain
until it hits home and then they bit ch
about all the garbage left in the ditch
biodegradable party favours
like edible condoms in many flavours
spread joy and laughter across the board
when swinging friends call out for more
I wonder at time with pensive reason
if saving man is really in season
or should evolution play its cards
striking us back for being fuktards
You only have to study some ancient history
like lemmings off cliffs its really no mystery
civilization builds up and invents new stitches
then crumbles to dust when its to big for its britches. | |

| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Cruelty -:-
Posted: 8/11/2007 12:17:46 PM | break the cycle
if you can
find the heart inside the man
standing there in the field
petrified
unable to yield
Cruelty can come in the name of God
come in the name of love
Cruelty can be a way of life
egg shells and kid gloves
cruelty can come in print
each morning at the table
cruelty can be hidden long
waiting for an open stable
That barn has burt
the horse is gone
so now you open the door
scream out the names
those ones you love
feeling you need much more
searching the fields of fallen men
looking for your son
carnage mixed with sadistic drive
done with empty guns
heads will roll you scream to the air
you see that familiar face
unable to fathom the weight of it all
a void will now replace
what once was pride in family name
now can hold disgrace
mostly puts yourself to blame
for holding this cruel race
driven off to wage a war
with anyone less to settle some score
collateral kids may get in the way
but hey that's just what liberals say
deep inside the cruelty of man
its a bit of spillage from the pan
the fire's still raging inside their tents
no satisfaction from the vents
with rolling heads and quartered torsos
generals discuss delicate morsels
found in shipments from the back
sent to them as casual snacks
while enlisted drafts blow across the Styx
the high and mighty play with their pics

| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Tornados -:-
Posted: 8/11/2007 12:20:52 PM | Twas much like any other day when she came to town
the sun wasn't shining with a light rain falling down
kid and dogs didn't mind playing in fresh water
while older folk watched over them
with caution for the teeter-totter
That reminds me of a day gone bye
in my own disfunctional childhood
with little supervision and lots of "oh.. you should"
I took one pretty good
saw the proverbial stars
it even left a scar
Enough of silly tangents though
this story line needs more to go on
like the smile she had while walking in the rain
took all my cares so far away
a perfect picture on that day the wind just sucked her up
it didn't touch the pick-up truck beside her
the psych ward still holds the rider
They say she was found up in a tree
thirty five miles from where she should be
since then my life has never been the same
I just can't smile while walkin in the rain
Tornados will come in many sizes
go just as fast in thunderous disguises
may vaccuum the street infront of you
or suck up your whole town
what can you do? | |
|
| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Now -:-
Posted: 8/13/2007 5:45:48 AM | Finally a break in the pace
my race for the dollar slows
who knows how long I can last
fast as it came it goes
A semblance of normal
formal it is not
thought to contain
strain for the shot
Time can feel wasted in the moment so fleeting
greeting the sun before bedtime
sublime as close to beauty you feel
deals of fortune look more like slime
Its the rest of the world out of pace
faced with a possibility inside probability
symetric congruity nolonger matters
shattered social patterns will eventually mend
Now is the time to come to the aid of your party
now is the time to come to the aid of your party
now is the time to come to the aid of your party
now is the time to come to the aid of your party | |

Posted: 8/14/2007 7:01:33 AM | Unfortunately Autumn the gods of the auto industry
don't speak until Thursday morning

I'm told we work again through the night
trying so hard to make things work right. | |

Posted: 8/14/2007 12:25:53 PM | Universe don't care
We're just little things
Fluff gone in a blink
Our desperate cries
Unheard as the songs
Of a blade of grass
Bending underfoot
Hold our your hands
These are your tools
Hold out your heart
This is your strength
Hold out your mind
This is your light
To change your world
Universe don't care
Universe can't see
But I see you
And you see me
Our hands touch
Love flows through us
Universe is connectivity | |

Posted: 8/15/2007 6:35:54 AM | Thanks rune ... I have to agree
the universe don't care
except that little part that is we
then within these aching hearts
life love and compassion can play those parts
Universe is much like the air we breathe
filling our life unthinking with ease
in and out flow
unnoticed
no cares
universe most often is like its not there
We create the universe we see
with help from others
past and presently
now and for always
now it must be
universe is what we make reality

Posted: 8/26/2007 7:21:36 AM | work work
feel like a jerk
with an empty head
to match my bed
its surely been said
like the living dead
walking dark steets at night
it can't be right
yet in the light
yer bankbook shines bright.
now
with time to contemplate
some second rate movies
old golf clubs
a box of beer
dead grass all over the yard
no need to cut or prune too hard
just relax in this end of summer
let the blood settle to me bummer
in the chair over there
with nothing to care
just where
when
and how much dumber | |
|
| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Now -:-
Posted: 8/26/2007 9:36:28 AM | nd how much dumber would you have to be
to miss the loving in creativity?
The perfectly orchestrated light dance of stars
and planets and moons, ya you men are from mars.
Just watch the lilacs spring turn of delight
and the smells of the summer breeze cooling your night.
Witness the hope in the songbird each spring
completely trusting that their song will bring
all that they need, to fly for a time
and sing to the heavens where spirits will climb.
Did you know their sweet song encourages bloom
Stimulates plants to open like a bride to groom?
It's a perfect orchestra, a perfect song
And I know our conductors never play it wrong.
Its hard for eyes to see and ears don't hear the call
so we miss the big patterns till they're writ on the wall
and we feel so abandoned so lost in despair
that we forget that we're learning how to be aware
aAnd the earth will alow us this time to play
and learn of our birthright, here out of the way
of the rest of creation as it expands open still
while we learn of our spirit experiencing our will. | |

its really better than any dope
and om, ole pal the homeworld we may see
if those clouds let us watch without dropping water for the sea
I caught a peak of the moon last night
played some guitar
it just felt right
sang to the coyotes with out a care
another hot summer night in my underwear
hope that sight
in your mind don't cause fright
or flight so another space
tiss only being casual round my place
no neighbours to watch
no cars on the road
just me, my guitar and a happy old toad. | |

| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Abraham's Children -:-
Posted: 8/26/2007 7:55:56 PM | [just happened to fall into the infinity from some Ufinished Business]
for all who have suffered in Abraham s name
its the same old game of religious inane rhetoric
ain't that a shame
using an angel of peace's name to kill
using religion to inflict your will
God's will is nature at its least effected by man
then on the other hand
aren't we just an ugly part of nature
the fallen angels
there is no place on earth for heaven or hell
they have to be dimensionally different to sell
self made gods try to live like they are in heaven
self made demons like they live in hell
both have a smell
me I can tell
its sad
they're mad
too bad they just don't go away
like in olden days
banished
vanished
some say to the other side
more likely they just slide
slime down some hole in the bay
never to be seen in light of day
Abraham's children we are
mixed with conquered scars
Celts pelts sold with Aztec gold to Sythians great great grand sons
not one can survive that final ride
down the river to the sea of infinity | |
|
| -:- One Moment in Infinity -:- Abraham's Children -:-
Posted: 8/26/2007 10:02:20 PM | down the river to the sea of infinity
sailing right past the holy trinity
ever noticed that with just three side
you got a pyramid scheme going taking you for a ride
Third world base of slavery to support the elite
and there isn't any ticket taking you to easy street
Dress like, drive like, live like succeed
cover it over with a marketable greed
Pyramids crumbling like never before
Name of the father the son and once more
Where's the virgin Mary, did Isis know the score?
Horus was the son that sacrificed in times before.
Calling all directions and the elements of four
Calling forth the circle holding open every door
Hold out to sell out and get a better deal
sixties became seventies and lost the forward feel.
Given up, graven cup, the silence of the grail
without the fourth doorway here, we once again will fail
When Abraham he cast her out and condoned destructive ways
For all mankind it was a matter of time till the end of all days. | |
