Pride is the first step in people unraveling and companies unraveling and relationships unraveling.

Our Wish
A slow unraveling
of the morning light
at such a leisurely pace
for the world
to seep into
a peaceful place.

In A Light Filled Space
The dawn's
slow
unraveling
turns the morning
into light
the languid measured pace
of the sun
on my face.

A Little Traveling Music, Please
On the road so long and lonely
Can't believe I'm headed home to stay
God I miss my one and only
A little traveling music please
Seems we're always seperating
Still she doesn't let me lose my way
Home is anywhere she's waiting
A little traveling music please
I may forget how much I care
But once I've left her laughter
Two and three days after
I'm aware how much I miss her there
This time I'll stay home forever
Hold her close and turn the world away
Even if it's not forever
It it'll keep me from unraveling
A little traveling music please
Two and three days after
I'm aware how much I miss her there
This time I'll stay home forever
Hold her close and turn the world away
Even if it's not forever
She's going to keep me from unraveling
A little traveling music please
A little traveling music please

All I Want
I am on a lonely road and I am traveling
Traveling, traveling, traveling
Looking for something, what can it be
Oh I hate you some, I hate you some
I love you some
Oh I love you when I forget about me
I want to be strong I want to laugh along
I want to belong to the living
Alive, alive, I want to get up and jive
I want to wreck my stockings in some juke box dive
Do you want - do you want - do you want
To dance with me baby
Do you want to take a chance
On maybe finding some sweet romance with me baby
Well, come on
All I really really want our love to do
Is to bring out the best in me and in you too
All I really really want our love to do
Is to bring out the best in me and in you
I want to talk to you, I want to shampoo you
I want to renew you again and again
Applause, applause - life is our cause
When I think of your kisses
My mind see-saws
Do you see - do you see - do you see
How you hurt me baby
So I hurt you too
Then we both get so blue
I am on a lonely road and I am traveling
Looking for the key to set me free
Oh the jealousy, the greed is the unraveling
Its the unraveling
And it undoes all the joy that could be
I want to have fun, I want to shine like the sun
I want to be the one that you want to see
I want to knit you a sweater
Want to write you a love letter
I want to make you feel better
I want to make you feel free
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm,
Want to make you feel free
I want to make you feel free

Singeing to Scorch and Burn
There is no blending in again.
Signals are sent,
To ensure a mixture ends.
No melting pot,
To strengthen what is not.
An unraveling begins...
To send the prospect of that,
Singeing to scorch and burn!
Without a happiness,
For any of them.
And conflicts inflicted appear as if...
Intended.

Unraveling the mystery

Supreme word.
Controlling guiding
Creating destroying
Supporting nourishing
Shows divine potency.

Someone's Face
Chancing to meet one
winters day,
A heavy snow blew this
way.
Wanting to reach out,
and hold,
North winds kept
blowing cold.
Other threads came into
view,
Unraveling, life, and you.
Deeds, time cannot ease,
Lasting visions, someones
face.

The Ghost Of Things Past
Erring in haste
Belies
The slow burn
Of regret
That destroyed my past
And left the future
Hanging from the tree
By a thread
Unraveling
A slow burn
Of regret.

Shoe Laces
Shoe laces
Shoe laces
Don't come undone
Don't untie and stop all my fun.
I'm running with friends in this game of tag
To come undone would be such a drag.
Shoe laces
Shoe laces
Don't come undone
Don't untie and stop all my fun.
Trip me you'll do and skin my knee too
People will laugh and call me a foo.
Shoe laces
Shoe laces
Don't come undone
Don't untie and stop all my fun.
Look oh no you’re out of the knot
Unraveling and flaring, about to be caught
Under my foot as I step down
God oh no I'm falling...The ground!
Boom I hit and what do you know
My Knee is bleeding just like I told
People are laughing and pointing and staring
Why oh why did my shoe laces fail me?
Shoe laces
Shoe laces
Did come undone
Did untie and stop all my fun…
Soon Be To Nothing
Kelly mountain road
Saw a heavy load
With a sagging heart
And a break apart
Voices in me
Stood as thick as thieves
With no sympathy
For the beggars art
I have passed these pines
bout a million times
Effortlessly
(effortlessly)
Now I grip the wheel
Fear is what I feel
At the slow unraveling of
(slow unraveling of)
Me
(me)
(ah)
(ah)
But you tell me its temporary
(tell me its temporary)
Its a matter of time
(its a matter of time)
By god
Dont you think I know its in my mind
(in my mind)
And its right over left
(right over left)
And healing the then
(healing the then)
Ill soon be to nothing
But I dont know when
Well the way I flee
(daylight)
On my crooked feet
Barn happy horse
(fading)
On a one-track course
Then I self despise
(daylight)
Cryin out my eyes
cause the happy trail
(fading)
Led me to remorse,
But the road is long
(but the road is long)
And the song is gone
I blow empty
In my cicada shell
If I saw my choice
(if I saw my choice)
I might find my voice
But I dont know when
(dont know when)
And I just cant tell
(just cant tell)
(ah)
(ah)
You tell me its temporary
(tell me its temporary)
Its a matter of time
(its a matter of time)
By god
Dont you think I know its in my mind
(in my mind)
Its right over left
(right over left)
And healing the then
(and healing the then)
Ill soon be to nothing
But I dont know when
Deep behind my face
Is a safer place
But old gears are hitched tight
To the gate
Its a daily grind
Waiting to unwind
Till I hear that click
That unlocks my fate
(ah)
(ah)
Yeah
But you tell me its temporary
(but tell me its temporary)
And its a matter of time
(and its a matter of time)
By god
Dont you think I know its in my mind
Its right over left
(its right over left)
And healing the then
(and healing the then)
Ill soon be to nothing
(Ill soon be to nothing)
But I dont know when
Ill soon be to nothing
(Ill soon be to nothing)
But I dont know when
Ill soon be to nothing
But I dont know when
(but I dont know when)

Beyond the horizon
sea and sky
the horizon
casting the line
beyond is god
marking this life
from the next
to understand
where we go
after this life
we can go chase
the horizon
seeking knowledge
it is a trip
and not a desination
the pleasure
is in the sea
of experiences
unraveling each
new mystery
beyond the answer
hides another answer
beyond the horizon
another horizon

Blessings by Talile Ali
in a fog
for such a long time remembering
how simple the truth is in revealing itself
with out concern for its power or total ownership
the days grow longer with the richness of
time unraveling and conveying
peace of my mind so essential
basking in the light of
reasonable delight is so fulfilling
traveling on what use to be
hurts like hell and yet
so pleasing to be atune
with my sun
in this universe of making
\blessings
for everyone

I Know Why The Suicide Dies
I know why the suicide dies
I know his secret wheres and whys
I know all right, why the suicide dies
And you can bet, it's nothing pretty
I know why he's gone astray
It's all the words his brain kept saying
And never stayed quiet, till he went insane
Some was bad, but some just petty
He couldn't stop thinking; I don't know why
And part was truth and part was lie
Scary things, that made him cry
And don't ever think, it was pretty
It wasn't romantic, it wasn't cool
He opened his veins like a bloody fool
He wanted to stop that unraveling spool
Still, you could never be ready
He tried to save the man inside
The ones whose wounds were opened wide
It was far too late, to consider pride
But it was never pretty.

Brilliantly Spinning
Brilliant in defending explanations.
No matter how unclear.
Or signs of sensitivity.
That's how it use to be...
Before the bottom fell from them.
However...
Still they remain brilliant.
In the ways they hide,
A mental illness suffered.
Without acknowledgement...
Of how this eats an insecurity exposed,
Showing.
Clearly eating on the surface.
And once kept within.
Beginning the unraveling...
Of every lustful sin.
Brilliantly spinning them...
Out of a self control,
Once held and sold!
With a boldness now too old,
For them to uphold from the rust and mold!

Jumping Rope
We are jumping rope together
we are jumping rope together
unwinding naughty knots of tether
we are jumping rope together
We are jumping rope together
we are skipping beats together
pouting panting chasing chants
unraveling rigid wraps to sever
We are jumping rope together
we are jumping rope together
jointly jogging jagged breath
suddenly we
sneeze!

Sunset
Yellows and oranges drench the sky
Like a leak, a spill from the sun.
A molten flood scatters across
The sea's surface and I'm undone,
Unraveling beside the shore.
The past flashes before my eyes;
I'm buried beneath the gritty coast
While waiting for the tide to dry.
Cover me in the shade and surf
Of an island isolated:
Lost underneath the deep, blue sheets
That solitude has created.
I'm relaxing, but I'm restless.
I'm castaway. I can't see why.
The only thing I can see is
Yellow and orange drenching the sky.

That Tingle of Devoted Love
In a grip.
Held!
And,
Not in it to be snuggled.
Choking every bit,
Of freedom felt and known.
And quite disturbed by it.
This once close knit relationship.
A habit unraveling.
And one now outgrown.
In a grip.
Twisting in a noose.
One chooses to slip loose.
And breathe again freely.
Allowing remembered Sun to shine through.
Undoing questions,
Of whether a life lived can be saved.
And resuscitated emotions,
Can be thawed from a frozen grave.
To feel,
Again...
That tingle of devoted love!

Lay still my beating heart!
Beneath the white-wet dew-lit foxgloves,
The lichens and apricot boughs
Beneath the dusky gray church-cock tower
And the ambient wet westward clouds,
Lay still my beating heart!
As silence wrestles with silence taut
As topaz ladybird march unduly
Through the myriad ichors of lustrous web
Through a needle of time unraveling,
Lay still my beating heart!
