• If I spent less…

    If I spent less I could do this,
    I could do that,
    If I spent less I could spend more (later).

    If I spent less I would want less,
    I would want better,
    I would want less.

    If I want less, I would spend less,
    I would want less,
    I would want better.

    If I don’t worry, I feel better,
    If I feel better, I wouldn’t spend,
    If I worry, I will spend less,
    If I worry, I will suffer more,

    If I feel better, I would spend less,
    If I spend less, I would be better.

    If I write poems, I would think clearer,
    If I think clearer, I would spend less.


  • I have an obsession

    I have an obsession about not being seen,
    I have an obsession that I don’t need you,
    To read my words. To read them here.

    I have an obsession to write and to write, to put it all here.
    I have an obsession to not care for hits,
    Hits on a site, hits on a video, hits for self-esteem.

    I have an obsession to write it down Quick,
    I have an obsession to not really Care,
    I have an obsession to not give much thought,
    I have an obsession to be an anti-pErfecTioniist.

    To come from the heart is to not be erased,
    To come from the soul is to not be cut up,
    For me to be true is to not play by rules,
    Rules like rhyming, rhythm or verse.

    Just to be true. Just to be true. Just to be true.
    Let it flow, let it flow, out of your mind.
    Let it flow, let it flow, into the void.
    Onto the screen, and saved away publicly safe.

  • There’s something more

    There’s something more,
    Than this,
    There’s that,
    That – which is not,
    But could be still?

    There’s something more,
    It doesn’t exist,
    Only in thought,
    There is no more,
    This is just now (this) (this) (this) (this) and (this).

    Better is thought,
    Better is judging,
    Better is denial,
    Better is deluded.

    This is real,
    This sight,
    This sound,
    This feeling,
    This taste,
    This smell,
    This touch,
    This thought?
    Well the thinking happens,
    But the thought isn’t real.

    I speak as if I know it all,
    But it’s not so.
    Because,
    There’s something more.
    I feel it deep,
    I feel it here,
    I feel it now,
    Now could be more.
    Now could be better.
    If I were here, if I were now, if I were more.
