Oh Billy....

Oh Billy,
Where are you?
Have you surrendered to more than you can afford?
Oh Billy
where are you hiding?
Have you determined to seek that which destroys?
Billy!!!
Stand up and be counted,
Billy!!!
Let you voice ring clear.
Billy!!!
Emerge, with a grin and a wink,
Billy!!!
Please come home.

Question, questions, questions


Question, questions, questions,
That is the question,
Whether to know the truth within
Or to fade back,
Relying on others to define reality.
Whether the musings of an unwell mind
Can withstand the power of one so certain.
Can the seeking of true and whole realty,
An reality that can stand the onslaughts
That confuse and divide.
The truth that must emerge
Unscathed from the twistings and turnings
Of an argument that seeks to empower its right
To remain unchallenged.

Who?

Who is this man, his face aging, his eyes tired?
What are his dreams, his longings and hopes?
The meanderings and wanderings have led him here,
But tomorrow is again unsure and his mind spins relentlessly seeking answers from the past.
Who are you oh shadow, oh reflection? Where are you going little man, where is your peace now that you have turned again to yourself?
Should I continue to gaze longing for an answer or should I close my eyes and drift away?

Death in the offering

They promised us a treasure,
a vaste horde of gems,
gold, silver,
diamonds
all a glitter
and a jangling.
just give it all away,
life will reward you
your generous spirit
bringing in the blessing.
well...
you know,
we tried,
we tried and we tried and we tried
until our pockets were emptied
our love exhausted
and lives broken and torn.
they lied..
they lied and they lied and they lied,
their pockets filled
with our rewards.
foolish seekers,
naive believers
innocent and trusting
we died,
and we died and we died and we died.
