Flesh and Smile

The living human is cursed
hustled along
middle-aged, middle income
stomping along but alive.
Manufactured flesh and smile.

Keep Moving

He was going
somewhere safe, a place ahead
at an unknowable distance
but he knew with certainty he must
keep moving.

Regain My Balance

I'm daydreaming at the sky,
I regain my balance
in the passing landscape.
I feel the quiet.
There is no chaos. There is no crowd.

Reality Of Life

I resolved myself
to the reality of life.
Day after day, week after week passed
and I found that
a change
had taken place within me.
My spirits rose, eradicating the remains
of melancholy.

Suffer Alone

I seek no love or happiness,
I am content to suffer alone
as once I falsely hoped to meet
a love comparable to mine.

Joy

When we find ourselves
wanting nothing,
when one is so full
joy emanates from inside
and I feel now as if I want to live
each day
in the absolute fact
the sun is shining.
