Organized Thoughts on Humanity: The Start

All is Peaceful on the Mediterranean Sea

A light breeze
A soft light
A good book
All is peaceful on the Mediterranean Sea

A Vino Blanco
A meditating view
A warm beach
All is peaceful on the Mediterranean Sea



By and By

With no particular place to go
I watch and all is slow
Here I lie
By and By

I think of everybody at home
Back to the view I own
How I sigh
By and By



Name (What is in a)

He was tending the bar
Serving the people
Showing kindness
But I never caught his name

They were speaking English
But were from Sweden
Pleasant People
But I never caught their name

She was small
Afraid of the plane
Full of innocence
But I never caught her name

He is watching over
Like he always does
Though faithfulness
I have always known his name

Time

How we are imprisoned
After all, it owns us
However, we can escape

A quiet beach, a smooth train
A pretty girl, a warm friend
These seem to stop time, and free us for a moment

One cannot live this way for more than a while
Because the guards of reality will find you
But these escapes are necessary, and must be made a way of life (for it is life)

Most of all, find a contented heart
Meld it with these things and one finds happiness
‘This is what all the ages have struggled for’

Make yourself appreciate wine and love
For only a few find both
A good wine is not as difficult as a good love
But the bitterness to one of either gone bad is unparalleled

So go one and find your escape
I may recommend a coast with good weather to start
For the music of the waves is sweeter than a symphony
And of course, where there is good weathered coast, there are even better people

Away from the cold and murky imprisonment one can find himself
And be found by his very nature
For when we are slaves we loose ourselves
But how good it is when we are reacquainted



Numb (Comfortably Ignorant)

With no feeling or care
One employs itself to serenity

No want or desire
Just a contentment

The world could have no better cause
Find it, and one finds a relief from all the pressures created by man

Although unique is its method
Common is its desire

It mocks the stoic and feeling
But admires true peace and comfort

The aforementioned is only found by conscious decision
And the subject is the way of the ignorant

For the educated in this matter can attest
The courage to meet the demands of reality and the false escape cannot co-exist

One must come about this process naturally because that is reality
And those who fear it are shunned by the Most High



Tame (To)

How is one to do so?
With a lust for difference and the appeal of adventure
One cannot escape the desire

An influence may be brought upon by an institution
Or perhaps an attractive individual
But there will be but slight affect

Man is born to run
Maybe to chase the wind
But he cannot sit still

If he does so, he will die
All figuratively, physically, and spiritually
For the answer is in the question

The question being ‘can man be tamed?’
I propose the answer ‘can the tamed be man?’
Ponder and respond accordingly

Just like the zebra, he is unpredictable
He can be black with white stripes or white with black stripes at anytime
And thus is our blessing, never complacent but always driving to be

Either driving for desire or entitlement
Man will never sit still as long as the sun shines
He unsuccessfully attempts to resemble his Maker
(In making it good and being able to rest)



Intersection

I have reached a point
I can’t name it
But it exists somewhere between drinking champagne out of a bottle
And listening to Pink Floyd in a hostel in the middle of Barcelona



Go…(Onward)

We Go because we Know we Must
Putting Trust in our Lust we Chase
Having a Face with an Ace we Show
But No, still we must Go Go Go



Sipping Wine in a Foreign Language

As the door closes to freedom,
My taste faces the chase of a Winemaker
I don’t know what it is or says
All I know, is that it is the last of this time
