Reed State-Of-Mind
I am a reed
Blown by the wind
But when my spine gets a-swaying
I can spin the world off it's axis.

My life off living on the edge

Like sunrays through a prism.

Till the door of opportunity creaks
And soon hidden realities give.

Like forgotten ghosts
Evicted from shoal.

And find grace to achieve
Than stand on my feet
A true slave of mediocrity.

Of the cake of bliss
With the icing sprayed thick
And chocolate brown and rich.

This shine to daybreak
Stare the sun down
Until my joy resound.

So this is how
It goes down

Where shadows are lurking
Thick as my towel
Melting my bowel.

Count me in for good
I wanna ride with you
On the track to the moon.

On the beauties unknown
Living within the soul
Deeper than emotions shallow.

Of organized terror
The strongest men are born.

But I'm down with your lot.

So I see the possibility.

Straddle the deepest night
And still you'll rise.

Boredom takes its toll
You gotta define how you roll
And cast down your load.

Just like I'm prone
Not quite alone
If I can shape my tone.

In the minds of war dogs
When their bombs explode
Do they wince at the blood flow.

Room
A room
Is your personal space
A place where you bloom
And touch that special grace.
