THE BLACK SHEEP OF CHAOS

.

.


The Children of Chaos need order


They need strong guards at their border


They need high self-esteem


To sleep deep and eat clean


To only be friends with supporters

NOBODY

Nobody asks

"Who is breathing the air?"

Because we are all breathing the air

But everyone asks

"Who is to blame?"

As if there is one among us

Who is blameless

There are reasons and causes for everything

Knowing what they are can inform us

For future decisions

Blame only points the finger

Unfortunately, the finger of blame

Solves nothing, fixes nothing

Advances no remedy

Worst of all, instigates no meaningful change
.
.
Put blame far down on your list

Of priorities

Put your solutions on the top of the list

Where you have power

Focus your mind 

On where you can have power

Because personal power is more satisfying 

More solution oriented

Than weak, ineffective blame

COLOR CURE


Some people get the blues


But I get the greens


When the only thing that can


Lift my mood


Is being surrounded by trees


The leaves whisper to me:


"It's going to be all right.


My child


You can be renewed 


Enjoy your day, sway joyfully


In a dance with the winds of change.


Just stand strong."

DEMON GRUDGE


He got up in the morning


So did his Grudge


It was prickly and heavy


But it just wouldn't budge!


It stayed with him all day


He took it to bed


That miserable Grudge 


That lived in his head


His Grudge was annoying


It ate up his time


Diverted attention


Without reason or rhyme


A Grudge becomes wearisome


Day after day


Like a loop of bad film


On endless replay


The cumbersome Grudge 


Makes it hard to move on


Oh the blessed relief!


When the Grudge is put down

DUST TO DUST

.

.


I have abandoned altars


Where once I worshipped devoutly


But now those gods are dead


Their shrines covered in dust


The candles unlit, the silver tarnished


The place where I once stood in reverence


Empty 


My mind has flown, like a dove


Over the stormy seas of dogma


To find more fertile lands


Where there is peace and harmony


Where the Earth and Sky, the Alpha and Omega 


Are One

BEWARE


Some things come with a curse


Poverty, illness or worse


So ask yourself first, is this really worth


The misery, heartache and pain?

.

.

Cursed things might look like fun


You won't remember until you've begun


That this is a trap, steel jaws that snap


Please, don't put yourself through that again.
