and the fog clears,
euphoria is set aside
for focus
and
Purpose.
mourn not the honeymoon-
its sickly sweetness sucks
and
betrays
your truth.
there will be many affairs
-many trysts,
but your Purpose
patiently awaits you,
and you alone.

Peace.

what was so clear

with fear-
of what may come,

Now.
Wisely,
Poorly,
Just Choose.

Just play the game.

Come and play

running to,
and fro:
I am building this grand…
I am composing this magnificent…
I ran…
I structure deals to help…
I build consensus for ideas and…
I lead peoples towards….
I teach our youth so …
I am an artist
I am a financier
I am a President
I am a hobo
I am a priest
I am a lover
I am a father
I am a cook.
Me,
I’m a confused
tangle, of nerves
and
memories.
I don’t care
But,
I believe.
I am not better
than you,
but I am the
single most significant
creation in this universe-
other than my dog of course.
I am a lost fucking idiot
Blind and Happy
Loving and Fearful
Focused,
and Lost.
By the way,
You are too.
and i love you.

‘Summer breeze
makes me feel fine
Blowin’ through the jasmine in my mind’
Are you ready?
for lush nights
filled with lusty wet kisses
and fragrant delights
from soft shy petals
that bloom only at night;
secreting seductive
scents; and
soothing souls
who seek.
reminding them gently-
that love is already here.
past and
present
meet at the crossroads.
and I sit here waiting
for you.
When
the sun is shining,
and so is she-
Smile.
Just smile.
don`t be shy.
When the flow
rubs your spine
and you float
through,
Just smile.
When your time
comes…
Your time to shine,
You won’t be ready.
No, you won’t.
Unless you smile.
with your heart,
and with your eyes.
Smile.
Light seeks Light
and
Love finds Love.
Be the Lightening that you seek.
Be the Fire that you are.
Love every moment,
and then…
when
you suddenly realize
that you have been
drowning
in riches….
Smiling will come easy.
And
my friend,
I will be
smiling
too.
A smile,
wrapped
in a poem.
For all to see?
No.
For your eyes
alone.
Eyes I dream to see.
Eyes I wish that could see me.
Eyes that would stop the very sea.
Eyes that must never be.
For yours,
are Eyes
that have
broken me.
I wear a mask
and a costume
for most of my day.
I hide
from
their
unquenchable
thirst
for order.
I wear a mask,
And I hate it.
When I take off that mask I dance naked with my muse,
then, you see me
Here,
sharing with you.
I take of that mask,
And laugh with my friends.
Then I put on my work clothes,
and I Play.
I Play.
I want the courage
To always be naked,
I want the power
to always play.
I want the love
To always be Ray.
Everything in moderation-
except, of course,
Women,
Drugs,
And
Capoeira.
