Fooling you
Fooling is not my intention
I have stated the truth
And you are to take decision.
Pressing panic button
I say my land on turmoil
And I can not remain insulated.

Tell The Truth
(by eric clapton and bobby whitlock)
Tell the truth. tell me whos been fooling you?
Tell the truth. whos been fooling who?
There you sit there, looking so cool
While the whole show is passing you by.
You better come to terms with your fellow men soon, cause...
The whole world is shaking now. cant you feel it?
A new dawn is breaking now. cant you see it?
Tell the truth. tell me whos been fooling you
Tell the truth. whos been fooling who?
It doesnt matter just who you are,
Or where youre going or been.
Open your eyes and look into your heart.
The whole world is shaking now. cant you feel it?
A new dawn is breaking now. cant you see it?
I said see it, yeah, cant you see it?
Cant you see it, yeah, cant you see it?
I can see it, yeah.
Tell the truth. tell me whos been fooling you
Tell the truth. whos been fooling who?
Hear what I say, cause every word is true.
You know I wouldnt tell you no lies.
Your times coming, gonna be soon, boy.

Follin' Around
You're so beautiful, you just lay it on me
Foxy lady, you really are the greatest show in town
You want to play,
You wanna eat your cake and have it your way
You got it easy and you don't give a damn
Fooling around, you just keep fooling around with me.
Walking down the street, people watching closely
Such a tease, you can turn on any man you want
You masquerade,
You're the catch of the season every night and day
You, you, you don't have any time for me
You just keep fooling around with me.
Fooling around - everywhere I go you're the only,
Only, only sexy lady
Fooling around, all you do is keep me hanging around
You're really so hard to please
You've gotta really watch that, baby!
You just, you just, fooling around with me
You just, you just, fooling around with me
You keep fooling, you keep fooling
Fooling, fooling, fooling, fooling,
Fooling...
Want to play, but you always want it all your own way
You got it easy but you don't give a damn
Fooling around, you just keep fooling around with me.
You just keep fooling around with me, yeah
I'm a fool, fool, fool, fool for you baby,
Keep fooling around
I'm a fool, fool, fool, for you sexy baby,
Keep fooling around
I'm a fool, fool, fool, fool for you baby,
Keep fooling around

Re-Offender
Keeping up appearances
Keeping up with the Jones'
Fooling my selfish heart
Going through the motions
But I'm fooling myself
I'm fooling myself
Cause you say you love me
And then you do it again, you do it again
You say your sorry's
And then you do it again, you do it again
Everybody thinks you're well
Everybody thinks I'm ill
Watching me fall apart
Falling under your spell
But you're fooling yourself
You're fooling yourself
Cause you say you love me
And then you do it again, you do it again
You say your sorry's
And then you do it again, you do it again
And again and again and again and again
But you're fooling yourself
You're fooling yourself
Cause you say you love me
And then you do it again, you do it again
You say your sorry's
And then you do it again, you do it again
You say you love me
And then you do it again, you do it again
You say your sorry's
And then you do it again, you do it again
And again and again and again and again

Its my direction
Its my proposal
Its so hard
Its leading me astray
My obsession
Its my creation
Youll understand
Its not important now
********in conversation
********in combination
********i tell the truth
********my feelings still remain
All I need is
Co-ordination
I cant imagine

Ask my opinion
But no excuse
My feelings still remain

You banyan tree intend to

Tranguility peace perfection.

All fruits all hopes

Pressing On
Well Im pressing on
Yes, Im pressing on
Well Im pressing on
To the higher calling of my lord.
Many try to stop me, shake me up in my mind,
Say, prove to me that he is lord, show me a sign.
What kind of sign they need when it all come from within,
When whats lost has been found, whats to come has already been?
Well Im pressing on
Yes, Im pressing on
Well Im pressing on
To the higher calling of my lord.
Shake the dust off of your feet, dont look back.
Nothing now can hold you down, nothing that you lack.
Temptations not an easy thing, adam given the devil reign
Because he sinned I got no choice, it run in my vein.
Well Im pressing on
Yes, Im pressing on
Well Im pressing on
To the higher calling of my lord.

I Wasnt Fooling Around
I wasnt fooling around
Everythings true that I said
So take me seriously
Darling, please just take me
I wasnt fooling around
Chorus:
Laugh if you want to
But I wasnt joking
About this love thats so real
Is it surprising
Im romanticizing
About the way I feel
I wasnt playing around
Im not a kid anymore
Im not the clown
Thats just here to amuse you
I wasnt fooling around
Chorus
I wasnt fooling around
It wasnt like that at all
So take me seriously
Darling, please just take me
I wasnt fooling around

The Base Of All Metaphysics
AND now, gentlemen,
A word I give to remain in your memories and minds,
As base, and finale too, for all metaphysics.
(So, to the students, the old professor,
At the close of his crowded course.)
Having studied the new and antique, the Greek and Germanic systems,
Kant having studied and stated--Fichte and Schelling and Hegel,
Stated the lore of Plato--and Socrates, greater than Plato,
And greater than Socrates sought and stated--Christ divine having
studied long,
I see reminiscent to-day those Greek and Germanic systems, 10
See the philosophies all--Christian churches and tenets see,
Yet underneath Socrates clearly see--and underneath Christ the divine
I see,
The dear love of man for his comrade--the attraction of friend to
friend,
Of the well-married husband and wife--of children and parents,
Of city for city, and land for land.

Find little favor
Readers are like bournvita tonic
Create stir in mind with panic
They reflect the opinion with precise comment
Make to rejoice or to feel bad with no room to resent
I feel certainly at heart
It touches like pointer from the start
Leaves behind some impression of imperfection
A remedy that is needed for speedy rectification
Poems with no message find little favor
Create an image for poet with some kind of honor
A rare gesture of achievement for an individual
Not to be taken in isolation or treated as casual
Poems do matter less
But not in all the cases
How great I feel at heart?
When they pass comments to appreciate the craft
I may and in fact all must observe
Dedicate self for cause to serve
It may not create impact soon
But help others to see shining sun
We are the reflection and true medium
Not all may come up with same level or maximum
Yet their intention can be well read between lines
Many issues remain on fore and many can remain on side lines
It is always good to be aligned live with communication
Respond to their observation with quick and find quotation
Well judged reply may move them from their stated position
Understand the point and support the well crafted composition

The Land Of Planty
Don?t really know who sent me
To raise my voice and say:
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
Shine on the truth some day.
I don?t know why I come here,
Knowing as I do,
What you really think of me,
What I really think of you.
For the millions in a prison,
That wealth has set apart ?
For the Christ who has not risen,
From the caverns of the heart ?
For the innermost decision,
That we cannot but obey -
For what?s left of our religion,
I lift my voice and pray:
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
Shine on the truth some day.
I know I said I?d meet you,
I?d meet you at the store,
But I can?t buy it, baby.
I can?t buy it anymore.
And I don?t really know who sent me,
To raise my voice and say:
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
Shine on the truth some day.
I don?t know why I come here,
knowing as I do,
what you really think of me,
what I really think of you.
For the innermost decision
That we cannot but obey
For what?s left of our religion
I lift my voice and pray:
May the lights in The Land of Plenty
Shine on the truth some day.

Just Fooling Myself
I tell myself that I’m a great poet,
and people will listen because I have something to say.
But now I’m starting to wonder am I just fooling myself.
When I speak is anyone really listening or am I just fooling myself.
Are my words as meaningful as Keats, Poe or Angelou or am I just fooling myself.
Well, no matter if no one is listening or remembers my name I will never stop writing poetry.
Because if I tell myself I can live without poetry then I truly will be Just fooling myself
The Land Of Plenty
Dont really know who sent me
To raise my voice and say:
May the lights in the land of plenty
Shine on the truth some day.
I dont know why I come here,
Knowing as I do,
What you really think of me,
What I really think of you.
For the millions in a prison,
That wealth has set apart c
For the christ who has not risen,
From the caverns of the heart c
For the innermost decision,
That we cannot but obey -
For whats left of our religion,
I lift my voice and pray:
May the lights in the land of plenty
Shine on the truth some day.
I know I said Id meet you,
Id meet you at the store,
But I cant buy it, baby.
I cant buy it anymore.
And I dont really know who sent me,
To raise my voice and say:
May the lights in the land of plenty
Shine on the truth some day.
I dont know why I come here,
Knowing as I do,
What you really think of me,
What I really think of you.
For the innermost decision
That we cannot but obey

I lift my voice and pray:
May the lights in the land of plenty
Shine on the truth some day.

Love Hurts
Love hurts but does not leave behind
Any traces that may remain as unkind
It is divinely felt and realized life time
That love was made once but missed all the times
It you talk of lust and remind it often
It may then prove to be shock even
It will emerge and destabilize the mind
You may become restless and turn blind
'Why did he do this to me' may strike always and harp
The worries may invade and cut sharp
It will be done all in matter of seconds
There will be panic for fishes in pond
There is peaceful atmosphere
But that is disturbed by unknown fear
You were not aware of the consequences
That it may leave behind pale and sad face
It may take few days to regain
But some of the effects may remain
It may not allow you to live with peace
Life may be left in turmoil and not at ease
I don't curse my fate
As it has taught me lesson very late
I was not in haste this before
Yet one has to come out of it therefore
No one can emphatically say and assert
That he shall remain aloof and never support
Such an attempt for true love
Only later part may drive him to believe

Man's Quest - Sonnet! ! ! ! !
Our every desire might not be fulfilled.
Enjoy the journey to destination.
What, if you feel life is far from idyll.
Must go on with the best affirmations.
Never give up on your dreams, carry on.
The mask you don should just never slip down.
Say your prayers in earnest every morn
Hopefully; go through life with smile, not a frown.
When it gets rough take one day at a time.
Be kind to self, don’t pity or condemn.
Surrender to him just before bed time.
Remain upbeat, what, if you have to feign.
The turmoil starts man’s search for meaning.
Was God’s intention from very beginning.

Truth
Does he feel the weight press against him?
The weight of cold pressing truth.
Does it force the guilt from his pores like oil?
No..she sees it is light as a bubble....
Truth lifting its way out of him
With a merry grin and promises of eternal friendship.
Oh..the divine freedoms of nothing more!
Alas, loves confusion is her bed of nails,
And, it seems she is tucked down tight.
Her too high pillow is stuffed full of whispered wishes,
And wet with a river of tears.
Oh what delicious torment
To be started through happenstance!
What does it matter if purity of intention,
Holds her from freedom of heart
If both leave her lonely?

Elevator
I can't change the past for no one has found the rewind button yet.
I can't take back my pain or catch myself from falling again.
For the net to catch myself before isn't there,
But I can change what I fall into and what button I press.
For the press of one button can change everything.
So lets see what the up button will do.
I may get stuck for a while or fall to the floor due to a sudden stop,
But this time the button is up and I will be falling into a net of hope.

Linda
Love is not a decision,
It comes straight from the heart;
Love makes the blind see and,
The deaf speak;
Linda, you are all that i have.
From the land of sweets to the land of romance,
From all that we share in common;
Love is really not a decision.

Glamour
Glamour,
Today,
Glamour,
Today,
Illusion all around me,
And its hard to tell,
Such bewilderment,
Cant tell a truth from a fallacy,
Can it be,
Clouds what we think,
What we do,
What we say,
Glamour,
Today,
Although we struggle and fight,
Cant see the wrong from right,
Glamour gets in the way,
Aii that we say and do,
Always its fooling you,
Glamour,
Today,
Oh, you cant cut it with a knife,
It will rule your life,
Glamour,
Ooh, ooh, oh, I believe its true.
Oh, look at all the people,
That still fall in the trap,
Strain their eyes to see,
Somebody elses make believe,
Can it be,
Its whats inside,
What you feel that is reality,
Glamour,
Today,
Oh, I believe its true,
Always its fooling you,
Glamour,
Today,
Destroy it with your mind,
And let the truth unwind,
