He seeks to live like a parasite. [He wants to sponge upon somebody.]
Wants- sex definer
A confident woman, the man seeks.
An intelligent man, the woman seeks.
A good-featured woman, the man seeks.
A good-natured man, the woman seeks.
A modest woman, the man seeks.
An intellectual man, the woman seeks.
A virtuous woman, the man seeks.
A chivalrous man, the woman seeks.
Be graceful, women!
Be brave, men!

Parasite
i am a parasite
taking the best deal
of this body that extends
an arena for me to
zigzag through the world
sheltering me with its torsos
hair, skins, and whatever
so that nobody ever sees me
the heart alternates the world
between its beats and springs
a red sea with a million tributaries
where i take my refuge
when all has been traversed
and used up i just leave
and be another parasite on the sly

Science says 'We must live,' and seeks the means of prolonging, increasing, facilitating and amplifying life, of making it tolerable and acceptable, wisdom says 'We must die,' and seeks how to make us die well.

Man cannot be reined.
He seeks another, still younger.
He seeks another, still fresher.
He seeks another, still cuter.
No woman can rein her husband.

A Truth Of My Soul
i am a rageful boy who seeks a source of joy
i wonder why god has touched my life
i hear the bawling of a thousand days
i see a light being pushed away
i want to find a lord's forgiveness
i am a rageful boy who seeks a source of joy
i pretend to hold up a 50,000 pound truck when it is hanging from wires
i feel sad when the gates open to one of my own
i touch their hearts for one last time
i worry about the unending flame
i cry when the stairway to heaven is shown
i am a rageful boy who seeks a source of joy
i understand deception is satinic and sinful
i say the lord will not deceive
i dream of a world in peace
i try to recall the days of serenity
i hope i will live to see a warless world
i am a rageful boy who seeks a source of joy

Parasite
Lifting the mask from from a local clown
Feeling down like him
Seeing the light in a station bar
And travelling far in sin
Sailing downstairs to the northern line
Watching the shine of the shoes
And hearing the trial of the people there
Whos to care if they lose.
And take a look you may see me on the ground
For I am the parasite of this town.
Dancing a jig in a church with chimes
A sign of the times today
And hearing no bell from a steeple tall
People all in dismay
Falling so far on a silver spoon
Making the moon for fun
And changing a rope for a size too small
People all get hung.
Take a look and see me coming through
For I am the parasite who travels two by two.
When lifting the mask from a local clown
And feeling down like him
And Im seeing the light in a station bar
And travelling far in sin
And Im sailing downstair to the northern line
Watching the shine of the shoes
And hearing the trials of the people there
Whos to care if they lose.
And take a look you may see me on the ground
For I am the parasite of this town.
And take a look you may see me in the dirt
For I am the parasite who hangs from your skirt.

Lives of unbelieving.
The advocates in your presence
Are the judges in your absence.
Your admirers are your beggars.
Your supporters are feeders.
Your servants are the betrayers.
Your family is the parasite.
You live well, unbelievingly so.

We cannot live by power, and a culture that seeks to live by it becomes brutal and sterile. But we can die without it.

Gandhiji Seeks Freedom
Bartered for violence, corruption, liquor....
Gandhiji seeks Freedom
Freedom from the heart of currency notes!
Quoted by politics, history, culture....
Gandhiji seeks Freedom
Freedom from the mouth of hypocrisies!
Showcased in squares, in buildings, in cites....
Gandhiji seeks Freedom
Freedom from the eyes of his crucifiers!
Masqueraded by every Tom, Dick and Harry
Gandhiji seeks Freedom
Freedom from the hands of his deceitful dupes!
Stance on Faith
Faith seeks to follow Him
Even through darkest night
And brightest daylight
Faith seeks to do His will
Though contrary to commonsense
And all sound judgment
Faith seeks veracity
And not reasons
Faith stands steadfast
On God’s declaration

My Time Given Seeks No Reward
A stain has been left on it.
A path I pave.
I suspect someone,
Has taken it for granted.
Believing it easy...
To chase me away!
My time given,
Seeks no reward.
Footprints are all over it.
And trashed by disrespect.
Although none of this was expected...
I accept this with regret.
My time given,
Seeks no reward.
To move forward is a personal quest.
Obstacles challenge.
And they will be faced...
With the best from me,
Unseen yet!
My time given,
Seeks no reward.
I am not motivated,
By spotlight!
Or applause.
Nor am I awed,
By my own accomplishments.
Those things done...
Are released.
Not stored.
My time given,
Seeks no reward.
I continue to be 'me'...
Even when I am ignored.
I choose to adventure.
I choose to explore.
And in 'this' time given,
I do not seek to reach for reward.
My mission is not to sit with impatience.
Or wait for an approval...
Until I am bored.
My time given,
Seeks no reward.
Nor do I rush to aboard a ship,
Not of my accord!
To agree or reconcile with to fit!
My time given,
Seeks no reward.
And I will not investigate,
The slithering movements...
Done to deceive by a snake.

We Are The Lonely
Down the hall upstairs from me
Theres a girl I swear I never see
I hear the ringing of her phone
She must live up there all alone
She hangs her clothes out on the line
Theyre hanging there right next to mine
And if the wind should blow just right
She could be in my arms tonight
We are the lonely all together
All together were all alone
We are the lonely all together
All together were all alone
The cashier at the pump & pay
Knows everythings gonna be okay
The all night all right rent-a-cop
Is across the street at the donut shop
The waitress waits with whiskey sour
At the single mingle happy hour
The one man band begins to sing
Accompanied by a drum machine
We are the lonely all together
All together were all alone
We are the lonely all together
All together were all alone
White divorced swinging male
Seeks company to no avail
Worthless ruthless toothless man
Wants wealthy woman with a plan
Swf with a phd
Seeks tlc at the a&p
Gwm nice and trim
Seeks s-e-x at the g-y-m
Ugly man treats girls like dirt
Wants buttons sewn upon his shirt
Dui at the b-a-r
Seeks m-a-n with c-a-r
We are the lonely all together
All together were all alone
We are the lonely all together
All together were all alone
We are the lonely all together
All together were all alone
We are the lonely all together
All together were all alone
Toothy gal with breasts so large
Takes visa amex master charge
Dial 1-900 girls for fun
You lonely little hot dog bun

The canvas empty and expecting
The canvas empty and expecting
Awaits the stroke of colours pastel in their shades.
Through Improvisation we compose through intuition
Through Improvisation we allow Imagination a realm
Within which she may rule.
Her boundaries marked with borders
Outstretched within a frame
She seeks to refrain from desire.
She seeks to construct her sanity.
Yet with every breathe we fulfil the will to live,
Every time we respire we tire more so of the past
As we desire more so each day the moment to last.
To know we are alive and to appreciate the moment
And to appreciate each other it’s all we can ask of ourselves.
