A rainy night in LA
Water sliding down the window pane
The cars echoes like coins in a chamber
Airplanes fill the sky
On a late night in downtown LA
Rain in LA

Towers Amidst Rotten Fields
The seeds of truth
Lie amongst the fields of lies
Not that we can not discover
But we must earnestly try
While a towering bell lingers
Subtle in the distance
Keeping time on us watching for
Ever instance
In sweet imperfect harmony
With the world that toils around
What we have lost
We have yet to be found
But in time truth will grow
To tower well above the rotten fields
To bring life again to the weaklings
My hope lies in such trees that grow
Along the roads we travel
The roads we have forged
Trees will rise up
Giving us protection from the lies
Whole Intentions
Whole intentions
Viewer retention
I have lost my connection
To popular direction
So I sit with pen in hand
Coffee at side
Seems this detour was more than
A simple joy ride
Roses and palm trees
Laced with every temptation
How could we resist
A simple will of gratification
Stand and sit
Sleep and rest
So it again
Resilience is our test
Intrusion of Delusion
The intrusion of delusion
Sets itself apart
By itself
Is quite a confusion
Look over here while I adjust this light
Walk a little more to the right
While I grab this pen
Magical intent
Disturbing ends
These games know no boundaries
Have gained such evil intent
An interpretation of truth
Easily becomes the golden standard
Not quite sure where our judgment lies
So we must see with our own eyes
Judge with our own minds
The age of spoon fed politics
Is a bygone time
Venice Coffee
Coffee in Venice
On the streets of LA
Caffeine buzz on the way
Open skies from open industrial canyons
Wall brushed with soft crayons
A mix of intellectual and visual
Harmonies
In lines of different tones and colors
Every world represented here
Music bass traps through the hall
While baristas subtlety call
The next customer
Transaction
To your complete
Satisfaction
Could We Have Known
Could we have known
That cobwebs would stretch
Over our path
Blocking our view
This is where we are at now
And no one knew
The Industrial Coffee Machine
Boom
Clack
Psssssssttttt
Smack
Click
Ding
Espresso
Doom…clack…doom…clack…
The music burns the air
Down the conveyor
Dancing swirling
White shoes on concrete floors
Exposed raw steel constrains the space
Wood beams pop out
The swell on conversations mellow out
With every drink served
Waking up a city
While The OK king is sitting on the curb
Hope & Energy
Hope gives me hope
Energy gives me clarity
So I hope I can be clear
In hope and in energy
Wrapped Up in Humanity
From east to west
Uneasy unrest
Wrapped up in humanity
Inhumanity
Lies become truth
Truth become lies
We have lost our ability to decipher the truth
And don’t care to sympathize
From the low to the highs
I hope we can somehow discover the truth
Realize
Banter from true lies
But it takes the average citizens to get involved
Even though our whole worlds have revolved
Around disorientation
It must stop and we must begin
People acting in collaboration is when people win
New News
Tired of it all
Turn it off
disconnect
And reconnect with veins substantial
Consequential
Disturbing is the news
New news is now old news
Forget it
