Another's Garden

Like a cement wall
I've crashed myself into, take the pain
It is human nature to be selfish, I agree
Now the clock resets itself
blinking zero
no alarm, no night, no day
It is obvious when you feel the current
There will be no more starry nights
Alas, my heart has reached it's destination
No alarm
To fight would be silly
as to accept is an honest approach
When you plant a seed 
that never grows
then you watch it grow in another's soil
It is that time, to reset
blink zero
12 am: 12 am
I will be dreaming of my puzzle for a while
a million piece's to answer
and i've finished too soon

The True Equator

Less of a poem in poetic form
a realization more or less
a lucky guess
I was sitting in the back seat of a car
watching the sky
imagining the equator was a confused super hero
diagnosed with OCD
he just can't live without making a ring
around the only place he knows
a home
like we pace back and fourth sometimes
thinking of things we do not understand
I'd like the think the equator is just some confused man
with powers more powerful than he can comprehend
where science is just as factual as religion
but the sun has no purpose but to blind us 
heatless fires, the sun must be machine
the sky is the mantle built to settle the view
no wonder why this superman is confused
ever watch fish just swim round and round?
they know we are watching but they don't know how
round and round, the equator, it's there
we are here. I am here
In the backseat of a car
riding on the same roads I've been on before
making my rounds, circling round
too much time to think. too much.

Prayer and Vitamins

The lines are said over and over again
His voice unheard yet, you hear it
A lie is told, so brave, so bold
A sickness but you can't cure it
You cough the medicine
You sneeze the truth
God bless you, God bless you
I do, or, you do?
The bed time story for the emptiness and tired
A riddle that spits such lies leaves most inspired
An obvious cure so hard to obtain
You choke on prayer and vitamins
God bless you, God bless you

Never Scream

Not alike
more...
subtle like a lion in a thorn bush
frightened? apparently
calm in the ways that I am bleeding
but not screaming, not a sound from me
I should scream and notify my surrounding that I'm bleeding
but I will drown before I admit it
the death of me
will be
probably
the quiet way of pretending I have not fallen
or scraped my knees on the glass i've dropped
still scattered around
reflecting every movement i make
thought it sparkles in the moonlight 
like diamonds, it is beautiful
but I wont scream
I hope you understand
