I question my self as
much as others. I look
for solutions as much as
response.
I am curious.
And I, without a doubt,
without question and
common sense, still rely
on answers I will not
fully comprehend.
This directly leads to
further inquiry and a lot
more questions.
It’s more than curiosity.

What are you looking at?
What is your focus?
What are your thoughts?

Them that shall know are often
the last to notice, and those that
do should be mindful that foresight
is neither as accurate nor as
compelling as what plays out in
real time. Dream as you do at 2:03;
completely and unconsciously.
Let the mind fill with all the grace
and grandeur of an undisciplined
destiny, but know the conscience
of the aftermath knows the
realization of natural reflection
and intention.

the moon changes
the month changes
the mood changes
the mind changes
nothing ever
stays the same
not rights
not rhythm
not hope
not blame
without changes
there is no change
this moon is change
this month is change
the mood is change
the time is change
everything always
subject to change
the words
the wisdom
the peace
the game
deny culpability
you will never change

The inner voice,
an inner choice
to hear what matters
amid the distractions and
less-than-intimate interactions
life lays out
before you.
Suffering the indignity of
less space to feel or see,
you know you must
keep moving forward.
Surrounded by noise, day
after day, you continue
trying to listen
or
wanting to say
all of those thoughts, and
words stuck in your soul.
Own your emotions.
In a world full of shouting
Sometimes
a whisper will find its way.
