Life is but a fleeting twinkle
A sparkle on the sunlit sea
Life is but a flashy shimmer
A flicker starring you and me
Life is but a passing fancy
A Roman candle in the night
Life is but a dreamy glimmer
A flutter with our end in sight
Poems
Not staying in step with my own being
lost in an unfocused world of mother induced ignorance
becoming a masturbator instead of a doubled-up Don Juan
missing now moments caught in a haze of overthinking
leading me to misanthropy and heartache, aloneness and despair
manifesting as an unfocused fool missing out on his own life
a cowardly quitter and bad luck wanderer brewing in yucky ways
yet in the end despite the ravages of my unsightly karmic fate
I settled on nurturing, healing human love and didn't die a fool
The ugly Americans have become zombie Americans,
cruel, heartless, selfish, ruthless, greedy, arrogant, vile
power and profit devouring, crazy billionaire zombies!
Nothingness looms like a stake
Gripped by good old father time
Hammered home by hands of fate
Shadowing my downhill climb
Nothingness is all we get
Gone to dark and deadened doom
Driven home by destiny
Sitting tight inside my tomb
What is the secret to success
What makes us fight and win the day
What is the answer to our fears
What gives us strength to the find our way
What is the special secret sauce
What makes the best in us succeed
What is the topping of them all
Why love of course is all we need
It's looking bad in fact quite bleak
Our world is going down in flames
Such a mess and we're still in it
Now acting out the final frames
It's looking grim in fact quite sad
Our universe is nearly broke
Such a jam we're growing old in
But now at least we get the joke
It's looking up in fact quite bright
Our earth is giving us more time
Such a gift and glad to know it
Now basking in the land of rhyme
Oh, the absurdity of human beings
unable to get over the hump of dumbness
coming out of unconsciousness into consciousness
seeing the reflection of ourselves in the water
having our wow, that's me, out of body experience
Oh, the superstitious stupidity of mankind
believing in the now known to be ridiculous
allowing our egos to invent answers as we go along
making decisions based on selfish arrogance
like animals ruling by the supreme power of might
Oh, the foolhardiness of Homo-sapiens
choosing to ignore the new knowledge of science
holding onto our delusional and fictional storytelling
thinking the dead need to be reminded to rest in peace
being sorrowfully ignorant and pitifully oxymoronic
If I knew then what I know now
If my heart had been more open
If the moon jumped over the cow
If the little dog had spoken
If I knew then every riddle
If my eyes had been wide open
If the cat could play the fiddle
If the fun had been unbroken
If I knew then the road to seek
If my mind had been more open
If the dish and the spoon could speak
If the laughing dog had woken
Life is an unfinished work of art
A masterpiece stunningly sublime
Joy comes most in the disappearing
Getting lost in the moments of time
Life is an incomplete chef d'oeuvre
Each masterwork handcrafted from scratch
Peace comes most in the pioneering
Staying young on the thrill of the catch
Life is a rough-hewn magnum opus
An abstract and unsound tour de force
Love comes most to the undesigning
Growing old as a matter of course
These are the fucking people our father couldn't stand
the part of our population with demented, warped minds
and eyes of werewolves dying while becoming simian again
These are the goddamned people who should be summarily shot
once and for all ridding our planet of their Neanderthalic evolvement
making room for better human beings to populate our precious Earth
These are the one out of every two people caught in arrogant ignorance
unable to accept the scientific explanation for ourselves and our existence
which lifts us into perfect realms of loving equanimity and all for oneness
These are the sons-of-bitches and bitches' claiming to know what truth is
while accepting a 2000-year-old belief system now proven to be 100% false
and of course, failing miserably as ass fucking, cock sucking, lying hypocrites
These are the coldhearted and cruel Homo-sapiens we can never get away from
they live next door and down the street, they walk beside us in our daily routines
gripped like Gollum's by a perverted animalistic need to be separated and alone
These are the stupid, poor bastards and fools our father kept running away from
to once and forever rid himself of their stifling, stuck in-the-box closemindedness
these are the fucked-up people of Trump and Musk, the minion hordes of MAGA
The Lilly twins, one kissed by a bug, one with a bum ticker
Karma's a bitch and death is the penultimate ass-kicker
But neither twin bowed out as a bent-over arse-licker
Sam Kinison's bashed up brains, still alive and talking
Julian Sands alone on a hike, death getting lost when walking
Anton Yelchin driving to town, got out to go open his gate
David Carradine chasing a fetish, choked dead for a masturbate
Robin Williams the megastar, said hello to a hangman's rope
Elvis Presley king of all pop, keeled over while pooping his dope
Earnest Hemmingway near his wits end, takes pellets to the face
Amy Winehouse pushing her limits, got dead by her last batch of H
