Conflict.
It is a conflict of sorts.
Left vrs right
Black vrs white
Right vrs wrong.
We always seem to be at odds
with ourselves or someone
or something.
It is with ourselves.
How do we make
the decisions we make?
How can we make
the right decisions?
Not alone.
But are you with me?
or against.
then in that case,
I would be at odds
with you.

Still in da funk...but getting better
Tuesday, August 22, 2006
da funk
I'm in da funk
again.
I feel my life
a pathetic parody to which I am only a
minor
participant.
orchestrated by
...others
and I'm not right.
I AM BEYOND HELP.
"AARRGG!" I scream out loud
========================================
The children turn away
from the TV
and look toward
their mother
as if to ask
with unspoken words:
What is the matter with Daddy?
She puts down
her magazine and
turns to me
in concerned exasperation
(as if thinking, here we go again)
and asks:
"Honey, what is the matter with you now?
Is everything all right?"
Her voice vibrates in
my skull like
a steel balls
downward spiral
in a
metal funnel.
..........................................................................................................................................................................
I think;
"No,
I am angry...
I am shackled
by my own
aspirations;
and sometimes I loose it,
have lost it,
too easy,
my rant. (Blogger talk)
Anyway,
I tell her;
I don't feel like talking anymore.
of my own voice
and am going
to bed.

Poly doesn't wear Prada.
It's as if

who you are.

Repression

...and the angels weep.
Burning wasteland.
godless pay dirt.
They are the warmongers
This is their recipe for victory.
and the waste of life- not so precious
to annihilate
at will.

A letter to George
"Hey George, Have you found Bin Laden yet?
A quagmire, it seems.
We can't stay and
we can't go.
and we are up to our ears
in shit.
Iraq is a shooting gallery,
and now we are caught
in a civil war.
...and we must fight.
...and there is nowhere to run.
...and the bodies keep piling up.
What to do...
What to do...
Afghanistan, Iran, Somalia, North Korea...
Such world class problems, with no clear-cut answers.
Oh George, How kind will history be toward you?
You are so distracted by world politics
you forgot about us.
We are being overrun by illegal immigrants,
raped by your friends in big oil,
having our jobs exported,
while our seniors go homeless,
our young unable to afford a home,
and we are all taxed to death.
"You know, I don't like to get political, but you forced my hand...
I pity those who voted for you and your cronies, for you have let them down. I, on the other hand, never had high hopes for you and sad to say, got what I expected.
Is there now no one in politics to oppose you and your delusional sheltered frat-boy rich-boy cow-boy view of the real world and the dangers we face? Will no one come forward?"
In God we trust,
help us in our hour of need.

The struggle in my mind ( my promise)
It's all an Illusion.
What is real and
what is not,
and all the spaces
in between,
in shades of gray and
black and white and
oh, there I go again.
I need to take something
to bring me back
to reality.
My mind is in
a bad place.
I long for diversion and excitement.
There was a time when you would dance before me
naked
with your long hair shimmering
in the moonlight and
I would take you in my arms and
kiss your lips so gently.
So young, sweet innocent eyes trusting my words...
willingly.
...and yet,
from time to time
a passing thought
a fanciful fantasy causes me
to struggle with questions
of right and wrong,
and I will not yield.
Nor will I harm you
for 20 years
