Poems
The following poems were wrote by me for various classes that I have taken throughout my high school and junior high school career.
Fear
Majordomo
I saw fear clearly.
He was a large old chap.
He turned and wandered aimlessly.
I saw his glazed eyes.
I heard his voice quiver.
And
I felt that I saw not only him but also his stooge.
Life's
Translucent Moment
Life is an apparition.
Sometimes just barely their.
Sometimes completely transparent.
It wonders unnoticed.
It works unseen.
It can be odd, a new wonder at every moment.
The unknown is life's future.
And the apparition is unknown.
Life is an apparition.
And
it may forever more be.
Even the Sun is Insignificant
The sun is the number one living knife,
Even though it kills, it gives us our life.
The sun is our friend, but not in the end.
Destruct it will, but it gives us our life.
At the moment the great destruction comes,
The new beasts will say, it gives us our life.
What you do now, under the sun, will not
Effect the cosmos, it gives us our life.
So I urge you to live free and see the
Task
of the cosmos, it gives us our life.
Anger Trance
Anger, "Happiness,
where is your reality?"
Happiness, "Anger, where is your Zen?"
Anger, "Happiness, you need me."
Happiness, "Anger, you sicken me not."
Optimist, "Anger comes between happiness."
Pessimist, "Happiness comes between anger."
Let happiness come between anger.
Anger
only when you sleep.
Haikus
Rain
drips on the roof.
Not a one hears his soft drops.
Yet all eat at night.
The lightning
bugs pulse,
Brighter than the night sky.
Of course. But, of course.
The lake
of the day,
Which is shallow and stagnant,
Glistens by
night light.
