the loser

if the loser doesn't win

we all lose

the song bird of the north

loves the song bird of the south


have often wondered how that could be

and yet here we are

sometimes i wonder about what i see

sometimes i wonder about what i don't see

often not sure what i should do

should i bow

or step away from you

ahoy there my friend

life is a long way off

and so is now


i often wonder how that can be


perhaps i am not paying attention


paying never was my favorite thing

mostly i have been poor

the bottle thrown in the ocean

some are here to find the bottle

some are here to watch over the bottle

some are here to be the bottle

and some are here to be what is in the bottle


and some other stuff

a poor excuse for a word

depending on how it's used


as is know

depending on how it's used

i love life

in what ever way someone like me can

and i wish life well

as i can


welcome to the trail of tears

my friend

the history of america

the history of the conquest of the americas

makes hitler look like a light weight


the extermination of the natural environment

the creatures of the field

and the native population

are unparalleled in any history i have heard of

except maybe genghis khan


i am not saying the wrong thing happened

and not qualified to know if that is true

but i am saying it did happen


and the record of this is well documented

but not taught in schools


and we play with our electronic doodads

and sit on our ass watching electronic imaging devices


and life goes on without us

the brain thinker

to be brain thinker orientated

is to be mindless


ideas are bubbles blown in the ocean

life is the ocean


awareness is not a product of thought

am apparently moving into a new house

do not intend to wear street shoes in there

would prefer that others respected that situation


i have no idea what life is doing


not wearing shoes in the house

find that a great idea

doubt we will probably do it though

paying homage to a man

a female situation

most males reject that situation

which is a form of self rejection

for them both

for different reasons

zero

zero is all numbers

as is one

neither has any place to go


two is not a real number


three is a narrow number

four is a full number


and we are all suffering greatly

worrying

just another way to avoid disappointment


and avoid our self again


we fear failure

we fear success

where else is the for us to go

courage is a false god

and a product of thought




awareness is not a product of thought


and life is more than a product

you

you are just a different version of me

hi

do you remember me


i still remember you


most of us

what is all ways right

is not all ways the way the way was yesterday


sometimes this may be so


but not all ways


life is all that is

and is not

whether we like it or not


liking it or not ain't much fun

but i did for a while


for some silly reason it felt safer

and truth was a little scary

ego maniacs

the most popular game in town

in our time


not such a big fan of that crap


pride is a curse

as is greed

and yet to popular in our time

now

sometimes the scariest place of all

sometimes the funnest place of all


and sometimes i don't know what


but now is all there is

and all we can ever have


yesterday is a false god
