Life

A dream for the wise
A game for the fool
A comedy for the rich
A tragedy for the poor
A gift for the pious
A laugh for the humorist
A vexation for the cynic
A cult for the communist
A breeze for the joyous
A cry for the dejected
A trip for the stoner
A pit for those rejected
A ride for the adventurous
A sigh for the melancholic
A fantasy for the dreamer
A drink for the alcoholic
A flame for the father
A love for the mother
And a quest for the child
For its path to discover

Why Talk?

Why even talk. The words hold no value they are meaningless. Talk the talk but can you walk the walk. Talk is cheap. Words have no materialistic value. Penny for your thoughts. No I didn't think so.

Times Restraints

When minutes become unbearable. And the hours follow suit. Put all time in your past. Let it not destroy you. These measurements of time. Mean little at our end. We aren't remembered by our hours.

Magic

Everywhere you turn something bad is hapening. Poverty, war, rape, murder, hunger, heartbreak, you name it we've got it. All the negative stuff makes people want the postitive stuff even more.
