ARA's blog: "poetry"

............... Love em all Hate em all Yea that's right You heard me Humanity is like that . They have my love And my hatred How else can I put it? When it comes down to it Ppl suck Especially in groups More so the larger they get .. There are those in the world i do love More than others They have given me reason to do so In most cases Some I just love For no other reason than I have no choice The spirit Demands it It's in their eyes I cannot deny them ... The beauty The horror It's all there every day All around We ignore much And miss even more We blab on about useless crap And strive for meaningless objects And then call ourselves spiritual .... Every moment Every breath Every kiss And embrace Are gifts to cherish Every sunset And sunrise Every rain Every sunny day All the green in spring And all the colors that come with Are gifts to cherish ..... We get lost in the cold grey And the tar black As we rush And pose And ignore Life's prose And muse ...... In the dark each night Many hide And others cower While the weakest of spirit Amongst us Thrive And glower They feel their power Violence And blood As they take Others food And cash With force And without redress ....... We claim divine right And gods upon our side As we saddle up On our horses To ride But in this I only can see Four horses true They ride regardless Thru time They care not For whom you pray Or to They are just a steady part In this cosmic play ........ Don't mind me I just babble Here in the corner With my flask of scotch And my ciggs Watching it all And snapping twigs I get sick of it all from time to time And act like a beast To some poor Ignorant souls ......... Worlds apart We all are Even when sitting In the same car Or drinking an same bar Regardless of how close We must still forge ahead Essentially alone The allies and friends Can lend support But we must Still run the mile ourselves Until the time of the silent bells And ending of this mortal jail .......... In the meantime Lets us drink And carouse And have our fun Or so it's called And packaged Till our bodies are ravaged All in the name of Ignoring That which we already know Deep within ........... Blending And bending This way And that way In the name Of this silly play Day by day Night by night Year by year On into the future And past Every moment a repast And clinging to a ships mast ............ Spiraling off Into the night Off to the fight Of sleep And dreaming And other meaning We all die a small bit Each day Wiling away our time Contemplating life's crime Till once more We back into The grime ................ Splitting words And hairs All for things We supposedly Have cares for And off to chores And bores That we seem To have time for Just join me Here On my floor Have a smoke And a drink Let our glasses clink For tomorrow it Will all the more .................
