Just doing the usual

So after I played shrink with a certain broadway-loving friend of mine I told her the title and subtitle of my blog.

Her response: "Oh My God so you're like Jesus!!"

Yup,
Wha' happen

It is you.

At post 90 this one takes it back to the original point of the blog

Life goes on
It is there even if
You are not.
Time moves

You can either live it
Or take it away,
But you hurt yourself
In passing -

Take charge of who you are -
Your mind can change, not,
What is around you,
But what is within -

You control who you are
But,
By leaving the wheel to another,
You live only in misery -

You can lie there -
Watching the clouds Pass
Over your head
And hating your insignificance

Or you can stand up
Face the world, not,
With optimism,
But with purpose.

Who is it
That you want to be?
What makes you
Who you are?

It is you.

Quotes; Edward R. Murrow

"The obscure we see eventually. The completely obvious, it seems, takes longer." ~Edward R. Murrow

Poetry Series: #2

When the voice of reason
Has laryngitis -
Chaos ensues

Boring life

You know,


If there is one thing great about a boring life

It's that when things go south

In the scheme of things


It's not really that f'd up

Poetry Series: #1

Striking resemblance
In the Clouds of morning's Frost
To the Shadow's of intention
Littered over the crimson battlefield

Shards of meaning
Dance through my mind
Scattered, shattered glass
As ice glistens over a spider's web

Delicate and fragile
The liquid seal
Fragments the shattered memory
And leaves you with Frost

Absolute power corrupts absolutely

Absolute power corrupts absolutely

Each day I strive to be my ideal
I am arrogant

You can see it in my inner world

There is no room for improvement

I have achieved, not infallibility,
But finality

I have created myself
And live within these boundaries

I have no desire to change, merely to expand

If who I want to be is who I am
Am I not arrogant
Am I naive

Is this a problem?

Am I corrupt.
