I’ve had enough and I want to quit after looking at what I created; Seeing what the useless humans have done with it and all their stupidity aggregated!
I gave the chance of pleasure and peace and slowly evolved their brains; But the endless wars that never cease means that little of beauty remains;
I’m wasting time being worshipped you’ve all forgotten my intention; Your happiness can’t be purchased there is no final redemption;
The seeds of wisdom planted within but humanity always wanted more; It was pretty simple to begin but now I don’t know what it’s for?
I’m done with this, I’ve thought it through I think I’ll make another extinction! Start again with a better cosmic brew and a better book of fiction!
Looking back over poems I wrote in the past, I realise what a catharsis they provided and thought it a good idea to try and get back into the swing of it. I needed to make a small statement (and a trial).
Start Again
How long, how many years? Pen on paper held no fears Laziness, time, other things The good and bad that it brings
So back to it, start again New book and brand new pen Conscious to make the time To find that special word to rhyme
Throw emotions out in words From realistic to absurd My own form of meditation To re-read all my own creation
I am so happy and grateful to discover the Oasis vegetarian restaurant in the city. Dylan took me there yesterday. They have a wide range of delicious fake meat and vegetable dishes. I’ll keep going back if Amy doesn’t cook me lunch.
This morning, I got up a little earlier so that I could do my 5 minutes of exercise and start getting back into some good habits again, and I think it really helped set me up for a positive and happy day.
I’ve started sketching again when I go for my coffee and also want to start writing more poems too. The one I wrote today may be the first one I’ve written in, I don’t know, two decades or more! I used to look out for interesting phrases I would come across and use them as a basis. I came across a cool phrase today in some article I was reading and jotted it down. I hope to keep inspiring myself in different ways whenever I can.
Things are good today. George even looked me in the eye when he was talking to me today. Even that small change made me feel good.
I went to visit Bruno and Nut after lunch, and we talked mostly about his garden exploits – he’s really into it, which is cool – it’s great to see his enthusiasm for it. It inspires me in that direction, too, but I am still a little lazy when I get home from work. Or, more accurately, I prioritise other things instead.
