Artificial Hero

I saw Spiderman hang himself
He was my hero
Now his powers are permanently on a shelf
My energy level is at a zero

I wanted to take off his mask
To see if his heart was gold
But there was no need to ask
I could smell his soul was sold

Point No Point

I want to learn how to sit
And make my mind stop
And know that everything flows

I want to learn how to flow
And make my mind stop
And know that everything's good

DNR

The impermanence of existence sometimes makes me
Full, eager, creative, inspired
But other times it leaves me
Hollow, listless, lethargic, down

I want to cuddle
Skin on skin
Until the waves are rideable
And the sun shines on the stone

Wondering

Will you be my shiny coin in the fountain water?
Will you make my wish come true?
Am I a color, a figure, a particle of matter?
Or am I a real person to you?

Secret Solitude

When you get to my door
Gently turn the knob
I must conceal the real
Let them think I'm a snob

Will you take the time to figure me out?
I might be out on the ledge
I'm like a puzzle with a gazillion pieces
It won't take much to put me over the edge

Why is a boxing ring not round?
Impatient persons need not apply
Why does my soul make a solemn sound?
You oughta know by now I need not lie

I hear you boy
You speak with compassion
I might not understand all the lyrics
But I feel your passion

Why are you flirting with me boy?
You know I want to deal with the real
These games you use to test
I really must protest

We will all be on the same road in the end
Stripped naked no more reasons to pretend

My head and my loin think in different spaces
Why is everything connected with a pair of shoelaces?
So easily united
So easily un-tied
Secret solitude

Karma

We live in a "throw away" society. Please leave everything in better shape than when you found it. This includes the people you come across.

Stepping Off

I wear many shoes
Appropriate for the action
Sometimes they refuse
My bare feet have their own traction
My soles are confused
I'm doing this for distraction
I smile cuz I'm amused
Like a carnival of attraction

Hollow Daze

Looking for a way out of here
Looking for the portal to go back
Looking for something that's not really clear
Looking for everything that I lack

Newton's Third Law

Feeling a bit bitter
Gave society the finger
As I pick up litter
Toxic odor continues to linger

Always a consequence for bad action
Violent collisions with hand or belt
Not fully understanding the reaction
You can bet I never forgot how it felt

Take two of these and down it with PBR
That will help you forget who you really are
You are not the only one with an invisible scar
Look at all the constellations, not just one lonely star

Nerve On Ya

Our minds decide if it was good or bad
Our hearts know if we've been had
Don't want to go through Life all sad
Cuz that's just a waste, an ill-conceived fad

Here is the confusion
Is the answer seclusion?
Our senses add to the illusion
Don't make this harder than nuclear fusion

Not only must we have the skills
To be able to pay the bills
We must perform all the drills
Before Death ultimately kills
