There shall be no bitter end, for the fool 'tis now my friend, manifesting well again

that's life


I've exchanged salt for sweet, stupid idiot hath been beat, me myself the one to greet

that's life


Of course I'm talking about me, as the only twin to be, repairing goods in family trees

that's life

I got bitten by a bug, now I need a loving hug, saying with resigning shrug

that's life


My end's written on a wall, yet still I'm standing tall, staying grateful for it all

that's life


There's one thing I can tell, 'tis remembering me too well, tolling glorifying bell

that's life

It's just you and me here

My ever-loving bro

Rhymes for our eyes only

The last that we will know


It's just the way things are

My true-blue first-line chum

Runes for our eyes only

Last beatings of the drum


It's just you and me now

My everlasting friend

Poems for our eyes only

Right to the bitter end

Science is the only truth in the Universe

she's the absolute, unbending, unfolding truth

and science shows us there is no 'God'


'God' exists only inside man's mind

but the Universe exists outside man's mind

the Universe exists without man's mind


'God' cannot come from inside man's mind

'God' must come from outside man's mind

'God' can only come from the Universe herself


One thing within the Universe exists everywhere

both inside man's mind and outside man's mind

that one thing existing everywhere is the ATOM


If you seek a 'God', seek an ATOM

if you speak of 'Gods', speak of ATOMS

as science shows us 'God' is the ATOM

I'm a goner, for sure, although not quite gone yet

Who can count his loved ones on one old wrinkled hand

Still alive but dead to a double-crossed daughter

With time slipping away in my hourglass of sand


I'm a goner, indeed, with one foot in the grave

Who can count the years left on ten fingers or less

Still breathing but dead to a brother and sister

For bad deeds and dire faults mine alone I confess


I'm a goner, alright, although not quite done yet

Who can count lucky stars without shame or chagrin

Still awake and at peace with all slips of the past

With good luck on our side ever onward my twin!

We all want to go back

To those places in time

Where the best memories

Linger sweetly sublime


We all want to return

To those struggles in life

Where the worst drudgeries

Tarry sharp as a knife


We all want to reflect

On those moments in turn

Where the joie de vivre

Burgeons red as the fern

This is bad, this is ugly

This is what they want to hear

This is it, this precisely

Giving in to hate and fear


This is sad, this is lonely 

This is what they came to see

This is it, this exactly

Thinking we will disagree


This is mad, this is telling 

This is what they want to find

This is it, this expressly

Leaving love and hope behind

Astigmatism fog, like a starving hog, in a shrouded bog, ravenous and murderous

astigmatism fog, like rabid dogs, assassin pirate's grog, dangerous and poisonous!

My mind is playing tricks on me

Making me think that I'm at war

One callous carping stink eye stare

How hot blood boils in every pore!


My mind is playing tricks on me

Shanghaiing my serenity

One snide and disrespectful word

How mad marches obscenity!


My mind is playing tricks on me

Telling me that there can be no peace

One riled and reckless battle cry

How sad the duels that never cease!

I was broken

Not all the way

More like a tooth

Chipped by decay


I was broken

But not in two

More like a vow

Long overdue


I was broken

Not all the time

More like a glass

Dirtied by grime


I was broken

But not in half

More like a bone

That lost its laugh

We are orbiting, orbiting

And we are rushing, rushing on

We are striving, striving, striving

Bare tiny beasties quickly gone


We are hurtling, hurtling

And we are spinning, spinning too

We are dying, dying, dying

Mere short-lived mortals passing through


We are circling, circling

And we are speeding, speeding by

We are dreaming, dreaming, dreaming

Brief noble bipeds aiming high

Try to leave the world a little better

Not just for your loved ones but for others

Try to make the world a bit more easeful

For all future fathers and their mothers


Try to see the truth in facts and science

Not in untrue myths and misconceptions

Try to come to terms with your destruction

For death is nothingness no exceptions


Try to let your actions do the talking

Not only for yourself but for mankind

Try to see the goodness in all people

For peace on earth is ours if so inclined
