Make a mistake.Go outside with your rake,Take take take;It’s time again to placate Listen to the breeze and let yourself believe that the rustling leaves whisper to you. Allow yourself this one break. Reason says otherwise, and I surmise that it’s choices which have me temporarily paralyzed. Forget to realize that the leaves aren’t alive? …

Striving to Ascend
Upwards we strive, sweeping blunders aside. Inside hosts the rings that demarcate time. Nothing but bands of lines. Roots cling to the ground. Anchoring the emerging sprouts until they can finally stand. The moving winds serve a disruptor to nature’s plan. Aspiring for ascension to the sky sustains the plant's continual drive to climb.
Embracing an Escape?
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 …

Flows and Fragments
Celebrate with a drink! Cheers to good health with the consumption of a known toxin.Mustn’t let yourself fret over such trivialities - let's return to building our own reality.Where to begin? Are you a friend or foe? Wait - regardless of what you say, how can I trust you?The response would naturally then be: how …
Rising Revelations
In times of chaos and turmoil, We are forced to recoil. While uncertainty increases, A certain confidence rises within. From the depths of the numinous waters, Remnants of the primordial past bubble up to disrupt the surface. A common adversary serves to rekindle the necessary collective collaboration. While our faith in society’s infrastructure diminishes, Doubts …
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 …
