A piece of glass separates two men with a past.

Two different lives, seeing the full spectrum of life. Both diving into a world of darkness and death. It wasn’t always this way. Roll the clock backwards and you would see to friends going through childhood together.

You can live life however you want. It is happenstance as well as circumstance.
Forge your future. Or be molded by the flow of time.

May you choose wisely.

For the many, an escaping comfort of surviving is suitable. For others, the view from the front of the pack is always the best. For the few it is a world full of adventure and mayhem. Sometimes the hardest thing to do is just try. Usually just showing up will get you through the door.

Welcome to

Moetry mondays.

If the might to fight
slips into the slight of the right.
rejoice that ends the night.
Day reveals the sight.

Your choices.
Following the voices.
Echoing the heard.
Or leading the herd.

Your actions.
Bring the transactions.
Of decision time interactions
Or the mind’s compactions.

Memories fade.
What is new will be made.
Light finds the shade.
Plan and action raid.

You might see the beginning
You will experience some winning.
Leaders be caught sinning.

Critic speak with the fools
While the wise sharpen their tools.
Chaos erupt without rules.
Knowledge comes not from schools.

Give to receive.
Believe before deceive.
Lose after you retrieve.
Fail then achieve.

Focus not on what is lost.
Value over cost.
Friendship with lost.
Life derived the most

Speak to keep.
Ideas must leap.
Desires to life seep.
Roar not cheep.
Lavish not cheap.

Score tally in the end.
Concrete ideas send.
Vague stays in the pretend.
Inquire till you comprehend.
Borrow not lend.

Future comes after now.
Decadent and wow.
Aim high and low.
It is impossible to know.

To thine oneself be true.
Pay your dues.
Follow the clues.
Defeat the blues.

Rhyme not reason
Revolt against the season.
Methods soon be treason.

Seek not find.
Free your mind.
Logic and curiosity bind.

Practice and persistence.
Over take the resistance.
Justify the consistence.
Of your existence.

Decisions and delusions.
Clarity with confusions.
Finality ceases abruptions.
Last breathes eruptions.

Attentions span.
Races ran.
Judge the man.
To understand.

The broke and the beaten.
Leaders eat after everyone has eaten.
Losers first to be seated.
Golden rule spread to be treated.

It is my intention to waste time.
I followed this from the first rhyme.
Thoughts from my mind.
Words to find.

The time I use.
Is mine to abuse.
Because two before me lit the fuse.
To prolong their own ruse.

It is often bought.
Without a second thought.
It is frequently sought.
To the cheapest bidder rot.

Give your mind spaces.
To the one’s in your places.
Be distracted naught by races.
Live life to leave the traces.

If you want it to be over.
Near the drain you will hover.
Build strong your cover.
Embrace tightly your lover.

Once it is spent.
Depleted and lent.
Every day has rent.
Moments and memories sent.

To the one’s who matter.
Making their own ladder.
On the ground get fatter.

Compare if you dare.
Contrast their lair.
Against your stare.
See how well you fair.

Credit to those who deserve it.
Humanity and all who preserve it.
Depravity course correction serve it.

Redemption is attainable.
Through daily actions sustainable.
Not through behaviors inexplainable.
Through practices capable.

Go before you know.
Speak after the show.
Everyone experiences low.

These are my thoughts and connections. Through the intersections of my life. From past to present, present to future. This hasn’t really gotten me anything in particular. I do feel better after I write something. May that be the boast of accomplishing something or the persistence of writing words with no form.

The blank pages offers so many possibilities. Much like the dawn offers potential. Did I squander the abundance of life or did I contribute something greater? In some ways it is easier to neglect what you should protect.

Protect yourself first, then help others with their thirst.

Not all that comes through the portal of possibility will be beneficial. Frequently it will be destructive in some way or another. This is the reality of life. Energy nor matter can be created nor destroyed it can simple go from one phase to the other. The deciding factor is time, and that is a luxury we can not extend.

Thank you for yours, and may your tomorrow be brighter.
