INSIDE GUESS

My guess is as good as yours, you know.

We can argue and remonstrate as we go.

Stardust falls too easily upon the earth

where we abide, and  constantly seek rebirth.

Imagination takes us within its thrall.

Reality may not be real; not real at all.

We watch stories unfold on stage and screen

Impossible to believe what our eyes have seen.

For a moment all that exists is a creative idea,

a fantasy which draws us all near,

connects us without fear.

It coats us in fairy dust,

and so, we trust.

These moments of suspended reality

remind us of our tightly held duality.

Our starry-eyed souls try to hide inside

a body which runs open and wide,

which seeks to break free

and reach for the stars seen in dark skies.

All we really need to do is look inside.

That is where reality truly resides.

FEELING THE WORDS

WRITING SEEMS 

A FEEBLE ATTEMPT

TO COUNTER FEELINGS 

WITH THOUGHTS,

I FEAR.

BUT, THAT IS THE POINT

WHERE WE

ARE MEANT TO MEET.

NOT IN RATIONAL THOUGHT

WITH FACTS, NOT FICTION;

BUT, IN MUTUAL FEAR

WHERE CONTROL UNWINDS

AND THERE CAN BE

NO MEETING OF MUTIAL MINDS.

THUS, FEELINGS MATTER MORE

THESE DAYS, THAN EVER BEFORE.

FEAR AND LOATHING ARE COMPANIONS

TOO OFTEN USED TO DIVIDE

THOSE CAPABLE OF LOVE.

WORSE, WHEN DESIGNED AND LED

FROM THOSE ABOVE.
