NOT FOR SALE




Like a black hole at the heart of an atom
Your paradise is a slippery slope to hell
I can tell because I more than once fell
Yet was rescued at the nick of the bell.






BALL PLAY





Here is moving past 
the ageing sorrow 
to kick the bucket 
scare the chickens 
in spoiled waters
with steroid pollute
I swallowed enough
while still at school.
In begotten karma
I salute you all
of raging fury
am a little dreary
here comes the ball
I kick it abrupt
I kick it high
to score a goal
right into the sky.
Let me ask you why
you ate the cow
before I figured how
to drink the milk.
I am on my way
to the forgotten land
where I’ll dish the news
in tomahawk scraps.
It has been a while
since I caught this bug
reluctant to leave
without a hug.
The brass is shifting
a nation drifting
right down the Nile
no room for denial
they’ll be grifting
the Sphinx in a while.

THOUGHTLESS

AUGHT NOUGHT MUCH THOUGHT



At the negation of inherent existence 
the mind is emptied in dire container
a head as clear when turned around
been cleansed of any trace of doubt.
Nothingness is where all this sprouts
embrace emptiness, cherish solitude
stillness of mind will disperse clouds
open your heart wide, avoid attitude.
