The Open Sea

The open sea

To me

Is the beginning of the rest

The soul needs

To see again

What has always been clear

To know that in death

Loved ones are still near

Holding

To the love we have

Like a sail clings to its mast

As the winds pull it fast

So I cling to the memories of yesterday

For my father would say

If you know not where you go

Anywhere can take you there

So today I seek the high sees

Free from humanity

On the waves of the ocean clean

Take me to where the souls live

Simple Times

Were there ever simple times?

A time when everything was smooth

As the morning dew

Rather I object

That time neither existed

In romance or

Realism but

Was a fragment

Of imagination

Lodged in the hopeful

For today is the day

Of hope for me

Regardless of the fate I see

We start in with

Today

Upon Arrival

You will hear

Upon arrival

The words once heard

To be the only way

Of survival

Cordial and quaint

Ideally a world

We can see as we paint

The words that we now know

As we grow

The more we achieve

Set out to see

The world around us

And all it is to be

Nonsense

A general nonsense

Is lingering about

In a wierd way

Around town

Where the cacti grow strange

And the wind blows mild

A bit of nonsense

Is making its way

Around

From news to views

Everyone plays a part

In the path they choose

For now

I heed only to the fact

That there is high levels of uncertainty

So certainly

There is a skeptisim
