This is something that gives me strength everytime I read it:

Life is a journey one must live...whether pretending or comprehesive...pissed off or sensitive...we must live our lives...truthfully...alot of us want to please everyone around us...blended with the shyness we posess...we achieve the state of clone like most souls of our species...naturally blended like rocks with exact rarity.....me..., ....this po extra terrestrial named me....who's fingers glow when he smokes...maybe because he's some percent clone but managed to enjoy his silent yet demanding romance with words on pages...a universal feeling that lasts for ages...could it be called something...that people dream of...not people that are hopless...but people that have a free mind to think about the clouds once in a while without thinking about where they're standing...I wonder is foolish defending to spend time now or waiting to spend more time later on...when the problems get rustier...and democrats like republicans...our need to please the mojority...leads us...digs us...into deeper holes...complacency leads to deeper holes if we don't, in real time, network, either through smoking together...crying together...or dying together...- the hope is not lost...just stagnated with complacency...which is what I c.......

R.I.P. Poetic.......you showed me where to look for knowledge...


Thought for the day Section: (5-21-03)

Stay focused on the actuality of a thing. By using your third eye, you will understand things in their true form. You will observe things without bias, without emotion, without confusion. Once you reach this level of no confusion, keep things simple, and live both with positivity and negativity.......

A recent poem I wrote called "How I'm feelin'..."

….how I'm feelin.. Man I used to drink downtown 40 ounce after ounce on college campus and bounce at the icebox before it was called the zulu cave… now I practice there…. and silent walls speak to me psychotic… almost exotic cuz I remember that time I passed out on the stairs there with my girlfriend at that time…and stares only cared about what they cared… the loud music…and..that music left me next to toilet seat..beat down by alcohol…but that’s just a memory…but remembering…that there is where I practice now, my current band owns those same walls..and after all those souls stared bands down and teared ear drums down, In South East "D"irty "C"ity….I remember it… I enjoyed drunk feelings…the first time was with much older cousins listening to blue magic…al green… bacardi dark…great aunts… the blues… house shoes… isley and... poison ivey in the backyard…. I enjoyed the freedom…because locked down in mitchellville mini mansions was fun..but had a limit…but there…I could stare at double dares and participate if I wanted to…I miss that feeling of ambiguous mysterious….but hey… got a "sun sun" now almost one…been feeling like I read to much and I know whats bout to go down so I been thinkin bout buying a gun…but….not really… need to focus…get back in to the art of things…stayed up late last nite after a fifth of liquor…playing my keyboard bored through my aprtment window…wondering…remebering…listening…and thinking of songs that make or made smile….watching NOAH cry…and laughing…remebering past girlfriends and flings…and flings when I was bored at birds with slings that shot…I remember..I almost lost it..but, by rembering..I know…I'll never lose it at all… ~ COOP D'VILLE - 4/14/06
