To forget and become blind, becoming lost in the minutiae of time. Let us look back, once more, and rewind - but what for? What is it we hope to find this time, a transformational revelation? An insight that transcends the temporal and guides, like the North Star, but in the realm of the eternal …

Contemplation of the Rain
Let the dams be damned and ameliorate this famined land. Upon what hills will you take a stand; amidst what turmoil will your integrity begin to disband? Our resolve weakens, our countenance grays, yet a force continues to uphold our inner constitution. The nature of numbness raises doubts about whether it's life or us that …
Repetitions in Search of Meaning
Sprouts burst forth anew; Leaves manifest from within to allow, once more, for there to be a thickening. Where is it that we are destined? Will there be true rest again - What about frivolities with friends? Why do we bother so much with the questions of where does this train end when …
A Solemn Reflection on Humanity
Consumption and greed are how many feed. Although there are those whose desire for might supersedes their own foresight. Blessed be the right, for they know of no sleep tonight.

Cycles of Growth
Growth continues to ebb and flow.The task becomes predicting where it will go.Some say up, others say right;Both are governed by sleep each night. Our calculations may bear fruit;Our hopes may even sprout roots.Yet, despite our clever games,Our life presses onward unfazed.Our present flames are frozen and mounted in picture frames. So, what do we …
Discussions from Within
Float me on out to sea; I can’t help you believe. Lay with me and help me breathe; Have you forgotten thee? Cast out those judgements harbored within your soul; Am I one of the chosen few who are permitted to grow old? Grant me rest and wisdom on how to proceed with your test, …
