on padded feet she creeps across the moon light splattered floors
sniffing and pawing at closed doors
night as black as ink, nothing the human eye can see
her green eyes piercing the darkness, seeing so much more than me
creeping and meandering throughout the house
keeping watch while i sleep
on padded feet she creeps
silken fur so sleek
hopping up upon my sleeping form
curling up gently beside my head
as i toss restlessly in the bed

are we the masters of our own destinies
or are we just bumping blindly along
as everything falls into place
was it decided long ago before we were even born
or is it just something that comes along
those mysterious twists of fate
are they just mere coincidences
or pre written chapters in the pages of life
so many questions fill my head
so much i want to know
too much time spent thinking and dreaming
getting lost in thoughts and never finding answers
ruminating upon words that seemingly make no sense
left twisting in the winds of fate

Screaming just because I can
Just to hear the sound of my own voice
Too often silent, nothing much to say
Nothing anyone wants to hear any way
Rambling and babbling as I scream
Letting my voice just become an endless stream
Garbled and distorted making no sense at all
No sense to the average ear
Ending it with a whisper into the wind
So it can be carried back to my own ears
There it all makes perfect sense

Absolute perfection my dear sister

Ahhh my dear one absolute simplistic perfection wrapped in beauty

Hey bro..made it home..headin out again tomorrow..be there till Sunday night. Gettin ready to crash for the night..just wanted to let ya know I was home and ok

just open the door my friend

Winter winds blow
Frigid cold air swirling around me
Snow stinging my face
Skies so dark and gray
Cannot tell night from day
Shoulders hunched over
Hands shoved deeply in pockets
Walking through the storm
Weathering through another one internally
Here or there, does it really matter?
Searching for something that simply isn't meant for me
So I walk on, snow stinging my face
Winter wind blowing
Skies dark and gray
Cannot tell night from day
Resigned to what it is
Knowing thats its enough

KC..have you been inside my four walls??? Excellently written

Some of us need to singe our wings a few times before we get it...fantastic piece Lauri

Beautiful my sister just beautiful

Its a long road I'm on
This road to no where
Heavily traveled by many
Just wandering along
Taking it as it comes
Rounding the bend
Taking the turn
Wandering on again and again
Where it ends, no ones really sure
Its the journey that matters
Not the destination
Its not who is waiting at the end
But who you meet along the way
Its a long road I'm on
This road to no where
A journey I am never going to end

Peaceful quiet an easy silence
Comfortable in my own skin
Comfortable in the silence that comes from within
Content to sit and ponder
Drifting from thought to thought
To look at me you would see
I am so far away, not here in this plane
Just lost in my peaceful quiet
That easy silence

In my soul I know the beat of the drums and the lilting melody of the flute
And my feet move to the beat of the drums
Movement they have known since time was marked by man

The sounds of the bone rattle echo throughout my heart
My body sways in time with the bone rattle
A dance that has been danced since time was first marked by man

So I dance the steps danced by my people for thousands of years
A dance I have never before danced yet my body knows it intimately
In the steps I slip back in time, dancing around the fire circle

Shamans whispered words filling the night air as they reach into the stars
Words uttered in song a thousand times only be uttered in song a thousand more
A story is told within these whispered words uttered in song

Gurly has rope and knows how to use it!!! Kick Azz words!!

As I read I heard music , different music for each one...beautifully written my friend

I love when my Mom ponders and rambles Love you Mom!!

In your Complex Perfection I am humbled my dear one

may the wind be at your back and the road rise up to meet you

Maybe its just time to rewire that switch Katie, try another switch
