Frailty
With age advancing,
Is it harder to climb up?
Is it easier to get fatigue?
Is there weight loss?
You are in the grip of frailty.
Frailty has a link to testosterone.
Mind, the supply depletes
When you divert yourself
From love, romance and sex.

The cruel and noble things
The cruelest thing is not doing cruel things.
It is being impenitent to having done such things.
The noblest thing is not doing noblest things.
It is being beholden to one for such things.

It is true greatness to have in one the frailty of a man and the security of a god.
Tragedy of Presumption
One cannot presume what the other is thinking
Nor can one give motives behind a poem
Unless in laser-like mind reading
One, like a Superman, by miracle has become.
Such is the tragedy of presumption
In the absence of facts comes a conclusion
There's frailty of judgment, no other option
But a muddled view of wrong perception.
Still as writers, our truth we declare
Unmindful of those who try to stifle
Our words and the passion that is there
The enjoyment in poetry, who dares to ruffle?

Thank U
How about getting off of these antibiotics
How about stopping eating when Im filled up
How about them transparent dangling carrots
How about that ever elusive kudo
Thank you india
Thank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence
How about me not blaming you for everything
How about me enjoying the moment for once
How about how good it feels to finally forgive you
How about grieving it all one at a time
Thank you india
Thank you terror
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you frailty
Thank you consequence
Thank you thank you silence
The moment I let go of it was
The moment I got more than I could handle
The moment I jumped off of it was
The moment I touched down
How about no longer being masochistic
How about remembering your divinity
How about unabashedly bawling your eyes out
How about not equating death with stopping
Thank you india
Thank you providence
Thank you disillusionment
Thank you nothingness
Thank you clarity
Thank you thank you silence
Yeah yeah
Ahh ohhh
Ahhh ho oh
Ahhh ho ohhhhhh
Yeaahhhh yeahh

To A Friend
In these days you surrender to a friend,
When does the turning-point reach you?
Mighty are ships of stone that had sunk,
They were built by those in moods of highness.
A mate will be your captain, a fully able sailor,
Not the whole person of weakness and frailty.
The nights seem longer than your days
When the friendship has disappeared.
Your days of friendship are over
Ever since high secrets entered the soul and mind.

Viola: Alas, our frailty is the cause, not we;
For such as we are made of, such we be.

Early Works - Indecision
We are all searchers
some try to capture a childhood
we never had the way we wanted.
I am like Macbeth
a man who could never make up his mind
until it is or was too late
the consequence is the good things,
the important things pass us by
without our even realizing.
We are all full of indecision
a human frailty that has been
inbred within us for years
being so we are fallible
when we make mistakes
only with some
life is one big mistake.
We try to prove our worthiness,
but worthy of anything is any man?
The question hangs over us
like the sword of Damocles.
