Peace

As I sat alone in my car driving home my thoughts focused and did not roam, for I was reviewing how much of life I have tasted and there has not been one minute wasted. I have really lived life and much of its joy and so, too, have I lived those things that sometimes destroy ...

You Are Also Me

It’s a superhero, but it’s half its size, do you dig? And it’s not about any man who was wearing a fig. It’s coming and going in shadows of light unable to know whether it is day or night. We’re in this together, do you hear what I say?
