For Someone

Wait out a mission
a misuse
Lay down in submission
and the distance
is distant
Whether or not you choose
whether or not it gets through
better off to get a hold of day
before it takes a toll of its own
in another name
Your blame
Way out, expansion
it's rising
and falling away
Lights out by autumn
its heat
not retained
Whether or not you choose
whether or not it gets through
better off to get a hold of day
before it takes a toll of its own
no one arranged
Your waste
Reach out for something
for something
to call
Reach out for somewhere
for someone

Axe, Whisper
04:27

Falls like an ax, hits like a whisper
who plants an idea and fails to deliver
false cultivation promotes a lost cause
progress halts when the outlook is afterthought
Remains futile to expect to please
when blooming colors have yet to be seen
transplant potential to a fertile location
or uproot will with indecision
Allied to ease betrays understanding
a seed in drought needs more than commanding
Each new leaf turned reveals old side skyward
appearance feigned provokes wildfire
See the shadows from all the boughs
but within the bark, the heart expounds
allure to the novel and fortune may be
but you flourish deep, verdant green

Meridian Essence
03:49

Can the tides surprise the moon
before the shores know theyre gone
see the world by afternoon
and still return if theyre wrong?
will the moon believe the tides
seek their own place to belong
with aspirations pushed aside
unjustifiable by the dawn?
In the wake of forever
captive to and answer few
and far beyond all nascent eyes
a stable aura of being is realized
the tethered ship mourns a wayfaring sea
achieves nihility from obedience
conflict contrived burdens peace of mind
repressing ambition accordingly
Each is left to decide to accept or deny
the essence that flows through the meridian
Can the tides surprise the moon
before the shores know theyre gone
is it ever to soon
to become what you've been all along?
To all those gathered here today, I ask
what moves you?
what propels you into incessant motion
and better yet, what brings you to your knees?
How content is a mind
that navigates anxiously around true astonishment
one that remains determined to adhere rigidly to subjective truths?
While hopeless impediments bend to the will of the aware
they glare forever into the flummoxed eyes of the entitled
await fulfillment in vain
that which is sought will not be delivered
