To Laugh or Not?
I wake up laughing,
I wash, laughing,
I go to work laughing,
I even work laughing,
I come home, laughing,
I go to bed, laughing,
I make love, laughing,
I relax, laughing,
I watch the news
And am not laughing!
You should wake up laughing,
And wash, laughing,
Dress up laughing,
Go to work, laughing,
Even work, laughing,
Come home, laughing,
Go to bed, laughing,
Spasmodically relax laughing,
And enjoy my love
Awkward as it may be!
Why.
Why am I laughing,
Why am I crying,
Why do I feel in-love!
Please, squish my hand!
As alive as I may be,
But only when you're with me,
For talk it's not like music,
Please, squish my hand!
Bewildered as I may be,
Tears appear from within me,
Tears of joy loud and clear,
Please, squish my hand!
Yet, there are also sad tears
That dwell in me as well
When Life blinks the other way,
Please, squish my hand!
When babies come about
They giggle, they shout,
For they are full of love,
Please, squish my hand!
Seeing them, we all smile
Knowing we were like them.
Was it so far back,
Please, squish my hand!
Perhaps, if I'd cry again
Or, maybe, shout back,
Would someone pay attention,
Please squish my hand!
Who do they think are
Those passing into nothingness
Void of compassion and love,
Please, squish my hand!
Shall I care?
May I squish your hand?
Crazy
No doubt about It:
Those crazy feelings,
Those crazy thoughts,
Those crazy ideas...
What's in a name?
How crazy is to be
Behind a mike and
Be YOU, or vice-versa
Within the circle of Life?
Like those implicit biases
Affecting all of us:
Behavioral Phenomena
Folding and unfolding
Our thoughts and feelings
In a true Origami manner!
The fruits of the land
We can own and enjoy,
But the land is not ours!
We can rent or lease it,
We can help its growing food,
We can share its aroma,
We can nurture its fauna
We can share with the species
Its abounding beauty
Without getting crazy
And claim its ownership
For, we cannot own the Globe!
Not by us, not the other species
Offering congeniality
While humans are yet to learn
How to share in peace,
Or natural desires that feed
Our creativity and talents
To be herd with others
For, the land would outlive us
And then, WHAT?
I Wish...
I wish,
You wish,
They wish...
Not ever more,
I couldn't reach the shore…
What for, what for?
I wish,
You wish,
They wish...
Wishes galore,
So, cry no more…
What for, what for?
I wish,
You wish,
They wish...
They roar
From door to door…
What for, what for?
I wish,
You wish,
They wish...
Without being formal,
To be normal...
Just to be normal!
What is normal?!
Revenge
Encompassing the compass,
Preaching the preachers,
Mothering the mothers,
Doctoring the doctors,
Teaching the teachers,
Fighting the fighters,
Greeting the greeter,
Hunting the hunter,
Mining the miners,
Policing the police,
Minding the mind,
Lighting the light,
Hating the haters,
Playing the player,
Nursing the nurses,
Dancing the dancer,
Tailoring the tailors,
Cleaning the cleaners,
Energizing the energy,
Lobbying the lobbyists,
Wrestling the wrestlers,
Directing the directors,
Scanning the scanners,
Conning the con men,
Leading the leaders,
Texting the text,
Icing the ice,
And so on…
And so…
And...
