Think


Let’s think

Sit down, crossed leg style

And meditate

Wait until that light bulb ding

With fresh ideas of the wise

One small step from humans

A giant step for man-kind

As your toes curl into the

Sun kissed sand

Eyes of the earth

Reflect the crystallized diamonds of the ocean blue

Deep breathes of the breezy air

Pause, hold it

For to let it out is to taint the earth

With dark smoke of evil

I see the evil aura that surrounds me

The pupils of its eyes grow

Swallowing the white outer shell

Until it becomes the deep, rich color

Of the blackened soul

Shut up

Listen

Hear the beat of the death walk

Listen

Hear the piercing shriek of your inner demon

Listen

Hear the scraps of the nail clawing for release

Shhh

Just listen

Listen to the

Clutter of words

Spitting from the mouth of this tainted snake

Slither until your body move to the beat of lifeless

Sway into the arms of the demi god

Hiss at the blinding truth that you too are evil

Feel the evilness inside you

Embrace it

For if you don’t

You have no chance of finding light

For every good there is evil

No more no less

Likewise with life

For every life given

Death is not far behind

Death is not that in which we should be afraid of

No it is like the embrace of a

Cotton soft, summer warm blanket

That covers you until you are ready

To breathe new life

So let your thoughts balance

Light, Neutral, and Darkness

The paths of life is not easy

Don’t let the images cloud your eyes

Like a rotten corpse of what was once beautiful

Just…

Just close your eyes

Lets think

Meditate

Until that little light bulb

Dings with thoughts of the wise
