Few men during their lifetime come anywhere near exhausting the resources dwelling within them. There are deep wells of strength that are never used.

The United States has long thought of itself as the land of infinite plenty, and historically we did have abundant resources. But now we are gradually exhausting our fisheries, our topsoil, our water. On top of that, we're coming to the end of world resources.

Ill Oil Wells Love You
I met a man in texas
And oh, he was so fine
And I said to myself
Self, Im gonna make him mine
He owned a lot of oil wells and his bank roll sure was healthy
And I new if I married him Id suddenly be wealthy
Oh Ill oil wells love you
Ill oil wells care
Ill oil wells need you
I want you oil wells dear
Well I never had no money
Not a penny to my name
And I said Id find a rich man
And Id love my way to fame
So he took mt in his arms
And I cuddled up real near
The money bug then bit me and I wispered in his ear
Oh, Ill oil wells love you
Ill oil wells care
Ill oil wells need you
I want you oil wells dear
He looked in to my eyes and thought he saw a love light shine
Nearly did he know that that light was dollar signs
Now that we are married there aint nothin left to tell
Well live happily ever after because all is well that ends well
Oh, Ill oil wells love you
Ill oil wells care
Ill oil wells need you
I want you oil wells dear

Indeed, our particular concept of private property, which deters us from exhausting the positive resources of the earth, favors pollution.

Man is for destruction
Utilization of resources
In a way is destruction of resources.
Deprivation of resources
In a way is conservation of resources.
Man existence is destruction.

In This Lifetime
All things one will receive,
In this lifetime.
Will come.
To leave.
In this lifetime.
That which is believed,
In this lifetime.
Will change as one grows.
To learn, accept and come to know.
In this lifetime.
With trust there is happiness.
If kept.
Much is tested to address...
Each season manifested.
Reasons we all share,
To compare if something in life is missed.
Makes us seek pieces to complete...
With a snug fit.
In this lifetime.
And in this lifetime,
All that is received...
Leaves.
With air that is free to breathe.
That seems not to be an option,
In this lifetime of teased choices made to choose.

Gateway
I can walk
Miles
Through ranges and deserts
Just to see you
Once in a lifetime.
I can climb
high
On mountains and hills
Just to be with you
Once in the whole lifetime.
I can swim
deep and broad
Through rivers and sea
Just to be besides you
Once in a life time
I can fly across the whole sky
Just to reach you
Once in this whole lifetime.
I can walk miles
I can climb high
I can swim deep and wide
I can even fly
But
just how can I touch the heart
The doors of which
You have so tightly locked from inside?
Just how can I reach your soul
You have so cleverly hidden from sight?
Just how can I ever connect to you
When all you want is to sever all ties?

I know where Wells grow—Droughtless Wells
460
I know where Wells grow—Droughtless Wells—
Deep dug—for Summer days—
Where Mosses go no more away—
And Pebble—safely plays—
It's made of Fathoms—and a Belt—
A Belt of jagged Stone—
Inlaid with Emerald—half way down—
And Diamonds—jumbled on—
It has no Bucket—Were I rich
A Bucket I would buy—
I'm often thirsty—but my lips
Are so high up—You see—
I read in an Old fashioned Book
That People "thirst no more"—
The Wells have Buckets to them there—
It must mean that—I'm sure—
Shall We remember Parching—then?
Those Waters sound so grand—
I think a little Well—like Mine—
Dearer to understand—

I find I am shedding hypocrisy in human relationships. What a rest that will be! The most exhausting thing in life, I have discovered, is being insincere. That is why so much of social life is exhausting; one is wearing a mask. I have shed my mask.

Sonnet: On The Prudent Use of Earth’s Resources
When mountains’ cut and granite stones are made,
And Iron’s got from ore deep down the Earth,
And wood is sawed from trees of Everglade:
Thus, skyscrapers in cities get their birth!
The Earth’s resources are so abundant;
It lasts as long as God wants it to last;
So, gold is turned into rings and pendant;
In doing this, man appears to be fast.
Prudence is needed in whatev’r man does;
The Earth’s resources could get depleted;
Improper ways of man could make things worse;
Man’s plans to progress get self-defeated.
Let man take care when resources are scarce;
When coffer’s empty, why then cry out hoarse?

The Lazy River
Fresh, inspiring, silent, thoughtful
Overwhelming strength and beauty
Haven to the smallest creature
Coping well as is her duty
River has a tale for telling
Should you wish to hear it told
Silent Witness in our lifetime
Many secrets she must hold.
Flowing onwards never hampered
From her course with destiny
Majestic strength and inner calling
Knowing where she wants to be
So I sit beside her thoughtful
Mindful of my own existence
Taking time to understand her
and her path of least resistance
I'm reminded of my lifetime
Struggling through just one more day
Never taking easy options,
I choose life, ...so come what may.

May Your Evil Burn
The strength of a man
may be evident through his words...
But the threats and pain such a man
inflicts upon another merely uncovers
his pitifully weak, pathetic, worthless existence...
You...
...the one who has a heart of black, a soul of coal,
a mind of evil and a hand to hurt
You...
...do not have the resources or strength to conquer ME

One Night In A Lifetime
There's more to question than answers
and sand will slip through your hands
and love is faster than lightning
so grab it while you can mm, mm, mm...
Well I've been searching forever
between the bad and the good
but now I know what I'm missing
and I wanna make it with you
One night in a lifetime
one life in a night
one night in a lifetime
and babe it's gotta be tonight
babe it's gotta be tonight
One night in a lifetime
one life in a night
one night in a lifetime
and baby it should be tonight
baby it should be tonight
One night in a lifetime
one night, one night, one night
in a lifetime, one night
They say that love is a gamble
and luck will play a trick or two
but I'll risk all of my loving
I'd put my last buck on you
One night in a lifetime
one life in a night
one night in a lifetime
and baby it's gotta be tonight
baby it's gotta be tonight
One night in a lifetime
one life in a night
one night in a lifetime
and baby it's gotta be tonight
baby it's gotta be tonight
One night in a lifetime
one night, one night, one night
in a lifetime, one night
One night in a lifetime
one life in a night
one night in a lifetime
and baby it's gotta be tonight
baby it's gotta be tonight
One night in a lifetime
one life in a night
one night in a lifetime
and baby it should be tonight
baby it should be tonight

Strength is the outcome of need.
H.G. Wells in The Time Machine
Submitted by Lucian Velea
Vote! | Copy! | In Romanian
In this moment when we face horizons and conflicts wider than ever before, we want our resources, the ways of strength. We look again to the human wish, its faiths, the means by which the imagination leads us to surpass ourselves. If there is a feeling that something has been lost, it may be because much has not yet been used, much is still to be found and begun. Everywhere we are told that our human resources are all to be used, that our civilization itself means the uses of everything it has — the inventions, the histories, every scrap of fact. But there is one kind of knowledge — infinitely precious, time-resistant more than monuments, here to be passed between the generations in any way it may be: never to be used. And that is poetry.
