Hello to any who venture forth on the journey that is my mind.

I am currently an Electronics Technician and a college student. In what little spare time I have I like to write songs and poetry as a way to ground myself. The lack of time to process my daily thoughts leads to some interesting poems / lyrics when I finally sit down and sort them out.

I decided to create a poetry / lyric blog because I realized that there is no point in taking so much time to carefully create and coddle a piece of work and not share it with others. I do warn that not all of my work is family friendly, there is some cussing at times. It is not meant to be offensive, it is meant to be expressive.

I tend to write a lot about the things in this world that disturb me, like the horror film director that painstakingly creates a scene about a childhood nightmare that terrorized him during his innocent slumbers. In a way this is meant to be a wake up call. I hope and pray that you won't press the snooze button!!

I really hope that anyone who happens by this blog enjoys what you read. Feel free to let me know what you think!!

Man Made God

Look what we’ve created,
We reap what we’ve sown,
Miscommunications, media like a drone,
Never ending non-sense,
We’re trapped in a maze,
Never bloated or full,
Only we are to blame,
Our youth is bred to think,
What is bad is what’s good,
We take what we want,
What we want is in you,

We worship the people, who live miserably,
We make them into gods, our envy they feed,
Hatred, and lust, and most of all greed,
These are only a few of our favorite things.

Selfishness and self loathing,
They go hand and hand,
How can you be happy, when all you do is demand?
Enough is enough,
Were ready for change,
I can’t take it anymore,
It’s filled me with rage,
You ruin your own life,
But leave me to mine,
All of my mistakes
I’m leaving behind.

We worship the people, who live miserably,
We make them into gods, our envy they feed,
Hatred, and lust, and most of all greed,
These are only a few of our favorite things.
