Justice

What is at the core of my being?

What is it that makes me soldier on?

Why live to fight another day?

For love? For money? For What?

As long as I can remember

The days have come and gone

Inspiration ebbs and flows away

away away

Some days I find the place,

The excitement of it fills me and all will be OK

But no, not today.

How could I ever ask her to understand?

How could I promise her what was not there to give.

If I could only will it I would,

But no, there was no will that could

And time and time again the burden

The terrible weight of nothing crushing

No corner is dark enough to hide you

When the searcher is inside you

So many dreams while mindless hours parade

Flashed across a silver lining like a meaningful charade

246 thousand hours made all the silly ideas fade

So many hopes the fool danced out

And now just sad and lonely lout

But wait...

one dream has truly come about

Work and work and sweat believe

This time the ring you will retrieve

Start afresh, and no more lies

Shielded from the love starved cries

But not to be for all the tries

Betrayed by one for years I trust

To understand the things I must

For drive me dreams they must

But all the ends will all be just.

None can deny that we exist within a latticework of suffering; homelessness, addiction and poverty surround us, we're experiencing a suicide and mental health pandemic. The suffering touches everyone in some way, this begs the question, how does one go about easing suffering? Before we're able to address any of these issues individually, we must first ask ourselves, what's the root cause of so much suffering? In a word, dysfunction. The level of suffering is increasing, dysfunctional families have become the norm, the mental health pandemic is fueling ubiquitous self-medication in all stratum of our socioeconomic paradigm. Dysfunction begets dysfunction, how do we fight an onslaught which comes from with...

Diary Note

 My fears are not in my mind, my mind is a slave to my fears. I feel the rebound of my Spiritual highs, this feels like one, the lack of ethanol and caffeine dragging my psyche down. THC up, sitting in the library "listening" to the pressure in my heart, if feels like a web of tensions spreading across my back.  Years ago, when I first started to self-medicate, I was able to let my rational mind, this allowed me to perceive the sensation I was experiencing as a sentient presence which moved as my mind's eye espied it.  unfinished thoughts...
