Question: Who better should I serve !? !?



thoughts, questions and poems



infinite complex contemplations,
mind bending, reaching, numbing!.
are best achieved through more
than a few hearty drinks for some!.
stubborn cranky fixation works too !?

not all life thoughts, questions, should be
glacial by, of, or in, their nature in my mind!.
though some would devoutly, loudly insist,
wishing me to believe, embrace, their beliefs!.
then chastising for not meeting expectations !?

some questions posed are, simply, simple,
quite mundane, low key, boring even!.
their importance remaining a mystery,
their relevance known but to one!.
who better should I serve !?

I believe I know what I was in my past,
possibly who I think I am, what I see!.
nary a realistic hint of what I will be,
only what I dream to become tomorrow!.
reality of your mind I should adopt !?

perhaps if the universe had listened, obeyed,
I could have charted my perfect life, of course!.
I’d sail serenely along, without squalls,
upon self charted, placid blue, calm waters!.
short sighted you, should be my guide, my pilot !?

the way to silence the mind is to kill it,
utterly and completely, by spiteful criticism!.
thus, neither thoughts, nor life dreams,
nor simple questions will then remain!.
when did I become enslaved to only your views !?

verses of mine shall, can, will, only provide,
images of my mind, my life, such as it is!.
your hunger and thirst unsatisfied, you cry,
dreams, meanings, unrevealed by my meager life!.
would you not benefit from opening your mind !?

I am no scholar, I cannot pretend
to be, what I am not, nor desire to be!.
my livelihood is not dependent upon
words I write, just my sanity seems thus tied!.
why is your lack of understanding so bitter !?
