I don't like the hard
Cold edges of structured life
I prefer life that looks like the
Philosophy of Aristotle or Socrates'
A little less prepared
An existence more discreet
Metaphysically
I detest nine to five
Rather to arrive at cosmic times
Jump into a space time dimension
Glide and flip through other worlds
And observe history with different conditions
But if you inquire
I may drop pearls mystically
Gems from the lightworkers
Seeds from stars
You know the essential me however
Spiritually higher than mars
I hate the desk at which I reside
The black terminal that holds and bestows
Emptiness like the black hole
But for the programmed ones
They require order to exist
To tell me the snow is cold
Or how and where I fit in
The chairs I sit
The papers I flip
Are so damn useless
An endless attempt to simulate order
In a prison where chaos is a square box
A place where my octagon
Will not fit
In
Their paper currency I detest
The sum attempts to define she
I secure my abundance from the Universe
My wealth
I manifest inside me
My eyes are watching the tick
When it tocks reminding me to
Eat to sleep to breath
Time is a machine that lifts my breath
And lulls my chest
Into the hypnotic state of utter mess
When you see me I am not here
Or aware of your stares
It's my body that resides in this dimension
My mind has left this continuum
I live in the haze of Damiana smoke
The past time I took a toke
It flew me away to my home
In my astral Body my zone
Of wish fulfilling trees that bend to my deeds
And cures me of all my
Egotistical and psychological needs
And I say to the leaves
Rescue me please
From The hard cold edges of structured life

Hence that's why we're here someone once said
That little statement rattled around inside my head

"Being as Poesis, Heidegger's Favourite Thesis"
Being is. No simple universal category
Its meaning lost in an ancient
sandcastle
small, proud
sandcastle besieged
"feather-ba nner, stand
tall to the

(such a small
thing, soon covered
by the sea)

I may be retired and on Medicare
But don’t point me to that rockin’ chair
My butt still
