Make everything
Pinpoint perfection
Give life
Happen

A universe
One everything
One nothing
Whole

Every pixel of meaning
Every breath of purpose
Thoughts of time
Blown away

Nothing left to chisel
Nothing left to add
Pure beauty
Pure meaning

I know of no poem like a national anthem
One of the words spoken by many
One spoken by countless hearts as one

I hear songs sung in harmony
I hear those words on the lips of many
These songs are universally understood

A poet accepts their unsung poems with mixed emotions
A bit of sadness
A bit of relief
A bit of fear
A medley of fill in the blank emotions

Euphoria is this moment
Inside this simple line
When perfection is
It just is

With all those mistakes
With nothing
With something
It’s just another action

It’s simple
It’s everything
What I see inside
I see it all

The life
This life
Our life
It’s all this moment

I sometimes wish the negative part of life did not exist
I sometimes wish we could skip it all
I would trade it all for wonder and silence
I would choose the wind at my back
In the 5 seconds it takes to care I would live
My life would be merry it would be bright
I would never see the dark only the light

If I could sit at the ocean forever
I would sit
It would be with my family and all my friends
We would swim and swim with the crabs and the fish
We would always live like today is Friday

It’s odd how life is
It’s odd how words are
Those metered syllables dancing in time
With something to them something with rhyme

I’ve been thinking more lately
I’ve been thinking forever
It has been forever
It has been no time

I’ve been living
I’ve been breathing
Just like you
Just like me

I’ve been living with habits
I’ve been living in sin
Living together
Living within

We’re living forever
We’re living in time
We’re living without
We’re living within
