Everyone has an angle
We can’t get tangled in our egos
Everywhere that we go
*
Everything that we know
We should share so we grow
*
Stand up for ourselves
No one should lose     in the chase for wealth
Stand up more    So no one faces Hell
*
Exaggerated confines
We can change the times
*
Everyone has an angle
Let’s bring them together with our goals
Everything with our souls
*
Any way that it rolls
When logic pays the tolls
*
Stay stronger for life
No one can stay     Down for all of time
Stay strong for  Each other       Always prime
*
Storms rage      as fierce lightening strikes
And everything  becomes more challenging
*
Some dreams are in flames
Sacred lives may crash down like thunder
Calling out

Their dire needs echo
Rain may wash over
*
We must hope for good timing
Steam, not smoke climbing
*
From the fallen day’s ashes
New growth raises hopes for the future
We have respect for the past      Or grind it into oblivion
*
Food for tomorrow     from our productivity today
Our life is nourished      by collective spirit
Developing ways to survive          Together
*
Cultivate bright ways to stay alive
Maximize all quality of life
*
Many more can have a chance to thrive
And create even more shared good vibes
In every single walk of life
*
Energy of an angle
Where we don’t edge out other people
Energy for steep hills
*
Energy not cheap thrills
Connections with deep will
*
Rise up for our home
No one is     ever truly alone
Rise up now
Best intentions are shown

Here I am
Doing what I do
Being me
How are you?
*
What’s your plan?
The days are new
All we see
Seems so true
*
Mountains stand
The sky is blue
Swaying trees
Sun shines through
*
When it starts getting dark
And there are many shadows
We balance our lives
And avoid any bad lows
*
Like pot holes in the road
Some times we can’t miss them
Other times a safe swerve
Or we don’t drive at all
Work in one place
On one thing at a time
Multitask later
To bring peace of mind
*
We make fair moves in the day
As we can plan and react
We don’t get too ahead of ourselves
Best to keep on track
*
Words that I say
May seem expansive
For the sake of life
There are no chances to waste
But never in haste
And I admit that
calm enhances
*
River bends
An ocean view
Lake is clean
Days are few
*
What’s our plan?
The days are new
All we need
Can come through
*
Here we stand
Doing what we do
What we feel
Can improve
*
Here I am
Doing what I do
Being me
How are you?

Nothing Seems to Come to Mind

I take a tone
Because I am thinking
I aim to make a point
*
I am not on the brink of arguments
I am just engaging in dialogue
To explore and
Radiate good energy
*
I hope that it is received that way
With healthy discovery
*
Partly with myself I speak
And with anyone that will
entertain these topics
Because I feel that we are often
on the same wavelength
You and I
*
And between me and myself
There is no cognitive dissonance
+
No contradiction in visions
We get results
+
We work to connect with
an understanding of our world
however that appears
*
To get us through the toughest
times that we will ever have here
*
Discussion helps us to
remember what we stand for
without any fear
*
The past changes everything but
The current is strong
clear, here and forever
The future is whatever is meant to be
And we will see better outcomes
When we make better decisions
It is all that we can do
To feel good
From way down low
While we get the chance to
appreciate more of our time
our surroundings
our society and ourselves
*
Work for it mentally
Perseverance, patience and passion
*
And when asked if we have any troubles
It seems quite clear that
in these moments
Nothing seems to come to mind

The poem may seem to clash with the picture in some ways, but actually, even in emergency situations (or especially in emergency situations) the ideas of this poem hold strong for me. Calm, balanced inertia to get through tough times!

---

Glorious golden rays of
precious light shine down
Bright and illuminating
All angles are found
*
Pushing further with our mind
Having confidence in what we do
Finding much more light to get us through
Even if we just
got past pure chaos
We will always
handle current times
With the balance of our body and mind
We sort things out to make it right
Feel good again in every light
*
Achieving goals in good time
Determination helps life improve
Creating chances to get us through
Especially then
our dreams all take off
It helps most to
treat our time as prime
With a balance of intricate design
We work things out and keep it tight
Find peace again in every light
*
Bold and brilliant rays of
Special sights light up
Bright and quite concentrated
These views are enough

Think about what we are saying
We all know
how to stay on track
But now
Not one soul
Truly tells
Exactly what happened
It is unclear
Just where we are at
*
We all can be off base sometimes
Reactions
Or words get off track
But now
We can not
Even tell
How the fall just happened
Now we are here
with where we are at
*
If we are concerned with meaning
We work to
keep up with the facts
Somehow
We sure can
always tell
What the hell might happen
What we have here
And where it is at
*
We have to find what really matters
All of the time
Sometimes what matters most
is not on our mind
^
We do our best
for all the rest
At least we should
Not have to guess
There are wild designs
All of the time
That may be
All that we find
*
So now
If we can
Start to tell
How our whole life happens
We learn more here
About where we are at

---

We know where we are going

But we don’t know

how we will get there

So suddenly

We walk all alone

The path is shown

The sky whispers

and the cool wind moans

Aware of the ground beneath us

There is fate in every step

Watch it

*

From the quiet of our mind

As we walk down

the longest hallway

A new voice speaks

Resounds and echoes

The way it goes

The spirit talks and

No one else knows

We now have the room to speak up

We may only have one chance

Watch it

*

Watch the moments as they slither past

Raindrops writhing on the window’s glass

We look through

To see our day

Far above the skies are grey

When sun bursts through the heavy clouds

Our hearts wake up

We shake off doubt

The sound of truth trembles in the trees

Light in our day speaks eloquently

*

We reach our destination

But we don’t know

Just how we got here

Fortunately

We are always home

On this third stone

Our world can shine

Life sets a tone

Angles of life that will reach us

We can’t take it for granted

Watch it

*

Careful

and be alert

And nobody gets hurt

Need help, say the word

Now Watch it

---

I am contained
Held in check
Still achieving
Upper deck
*
While contained
I am not restrained
And I am not a wreck
It goes quite well
How I reflect
*
Reaching masses
Melting tech
Start believing
Now perfect
*
Daily pace
Is like a race
Need time to rest
To be our best
We must select
*
All the time
In our prime
All that matters
Is our body and mind
Every time

---

Within the world that we believe
We have a certain energy
that keeps us going
And should feel free
helps us get more
good things done
*
That’s how it’s done
We do
what we do
That’s how the river runs
**
Within the world that we can see
Let’s make it how it’s meant to be
We keep it flowing
Excellently
Looking out for
Only one
*
Everyone
*
Our views
are our views
Under the healing sun
**
Sometimes we have to push ourselves
Sometimes we get pulled
in many directions
Too far
Or not enough
Then it can feel
very rough
*
We should never rush ourselves
Work fast when we have
calm thoughts as protection
So close
And we are tough
We carry the
sky above
**
Within the world, sky, land and sea
We can think about everything
All that is showing
Evidently
Life here depends
on the sun
*
Under the sun
It’s true
Always true
Until the day is done
**
Sometimes we should nudge ourselves
We should help life to
pass every inspection
Each day
Push comes to shove
We win with all that we love
By staying calm enough
And then getting above
*
Sometimes if days look tough
We forget all the stuff
Forget about any mess or perfection
If we think off the cuff
Accept the best ways with our new selection
Choose first adaptation over rejection
Better to build strength with each new connection
**
Within the world and life we feel
From this perspective currently
What we are knowing
Mood determines
How we think and
how we run
*
The story’s spun
It’s you
Only you
Your world is number one

Flooding onto the roads
Throngs of vehicles
Swarm the streets
Charging forward
Like schools of fish
Certain of their movement
Darting back and forth
Weaving in mass traffic
Individuals of the sea
Aware of their small circles
Yet never knowing for sure what is downstream
*
Often certain of intended destinations
Or at least the next gear
While treasures await
We are careful of how we steer
*
Barriers and wild currents
Below
Beneath
Loose canons or vile predators
With chrome and teeth
Intimidating
Or in the current, concealed
Then taking too many lanes
And crisscrossing
self conscious or not
Speeding, unseeing
being erratic in life
Chomping out big dents
*
There is risk involved
*
Never knowing
What other drivers will do
Sure sometimes it is
smooth sailing and certainly safe
With strong and successful
social smarts shared by many
*
We still should
remain absolutely convinced
that the journey has challenges
Obstacles
Competitors
Road conditions
And rewards arriving
*
We have to get along
Well enough for our shared survival
We can jockey for position
Or we go with the flow
We go fast off the light
Or we take it slow
Causing ripples either way
Too fast
Or just crawling
*
Dodge
Pot holes
And flat tires
Avoid breaking down and stalling
Won’t get stuck at the bottom
Common sense and skill
Keep us rolling
*
Beneath the waves
Keeping the pulse
In the middle of the chaos
we can find calm
*
We do it the best way
Your way or my way
Into intersections or
On the highway
*
At the curb
Or in the driveway
In a parking lot
or in our home
Peace can thrive in our motion
*
The top of the engine is hot
Below we keep so cool
Like swimming
In deep water
*
Biting on a line
For a better time
Do what we can
It is all part of the plan
Take us home for dinner
Or catch and release
On the open seas
*
It is open season
For every
Reason
*
We plan our route
Without doubt
Get past fast
Like steelhead trout
*
We do up our seatbelt
Safety can be felt
Please no treason
How about etiquette
And manners?
Like a license
To drive
And to angle and dive
*
Minnows follow traffic patterns
Sharks fight to stay alive
We all do try
To live the best life
Get where we are going
Down the avenue
On the fast stream
That is having you
Or that still seems
Quick as minutes
Adding up to hours
We cruise into
Our space
Any place
We all have more powers
Submerged or on the surface
Driving for what we want or need
*
Traffic is a natural phenomenon

---

---

We listen to the forecast
And choose what we are wearing
Whether it is right or wrong
We take some time preparing
*
Soaked to the bone
Or sweltering hot
Hot as the sun
Real cool or not
*
Guided by total strangers
The best of them are caring
Most days good friends get along
Passion that’s bright not glaring
*
The clothes we have on our backs
Should never end up tearing
We should feel like we belong
Which often starts with sharing
*
Broke and alone
No shelter they’ve got
Taught not to run
Now they are caught
*
Brainwashed
The same then
Talk a lot
Then name them
Proclaiming, for truth we have fought
We can not blame them
For something that’s not
*
Lying will cause more dangers
Kind truths should not seem daring
Science tends to be so strong
And art is worth comparing
*
Spoken with tone
And felt on the spot
Shot like a gun
First have some thought
