Not A Random Survey
Some are about 'things'.
And some 'things' they will never be about!
So what's the big deal?
The percentage of all butts...
Still sit on toilets!
And that is not a random survey.

Relying Upon Staying Uncontented
Fulfilled with an intention meant,
Is all that it takes
For one to initiate happiness and joy
With a deploying of a beginning
That breaks away
From relying upon staying uncontented

Before Doubt Objects
The only thing I want is something real.
Not to satisfy a taste,
That silences a quickened whim.
But comes to quiet...
A curiousity.
Before doubt objects to its acceptance,
Within.

Unattached for Docking
Being detached
Doesn't mean an attraction isn't needed,
Isn't wanted or wished.
Being detached means a hopeful encounter
Comes...
Unattached for docking!
To rejuvenate idle juices.

Those Fleas Accustomed To Riding
Every one of them makes as much sense,
As flies choosing to give last rites...
To those nagging fleas accustomed to riding,
Collectively...
On the behinds of now beaten dead horses.

Perfected With Regret
When they did not know...
They chose to disrespect!
When they discovered for themselves,
What was real.
They became humbled...
By a reflected ignorance,
They perfected with regret!

Corrected
If I said I love you!
You would not think I meant it!
And I would not object,
You wanting to correct me!
If you thought it best...
You needed to be closer,
So I can be corrected!

How High a Price
Justice IS blind!
And government is to shield...
As lie is to conceal.
Eventually,
Truth is revealed.
No matter how high a price paid,
To entertain reality...
By keeping it hidden!

Do Not Expect Me to Have Regrets
Do not ever expect me,
To choose...
Between you,
And my creativity.
You will not be pleased,
At the outcome left...
With you I would leave.
And do not expect me,
To have regrets!

My Heros
In the beginning,
I thought you were worth the chase.
But today?
My heros are those
Who wake up with amnesia!
'That doesn't make sense! '
Exactly.
Neither does this relationship!
