Here I am all alone by myself;
With only the quiet now by my side
And it makes me feel alright!
Those back and shoulders that were so tight
Start to relax and grow wide
And my worries begin to subside
The city framed by the window sash
The distance portrait of a forgotten brash
The dance of the curtain on the wall
And my response: a spontaneous sprawl!
Suddenly I see a little fly who came by to say Hi
I can tell she was flying for a while
I would say for at least a quarter of a mile
But then quickly she turns around and says good-by!
I wonder why she bothered to stop-by?
In a blink of an eye I jump and grab her by the thigh
Out of the window, the garden flowers and the blue sky
Good-bye my friend, the lonely butterfly!

The age of maturity
Transforming from the casual chatter to the serious reflectionist. From a wholesome observer to the skeptic reductionist. Commuting while sitting and dining while walking!
Imagine: students with notebooks in which class notes expand from the front to the back and their poetry in the reverse order. At the end of each semester their class notes encounter their poetry to proclaim the advent of a liberated civilization!
Beyond A Troubled Mind (firstcomet listens to a friend):
To all who posses the earth:
Beyond your borders, you are a homeless kid who cannot find her mother
Beyond your borders, you do not understand anyone and no one cares either
Beyond your borders, you are a homeless kid who cannot find her mother
Beyond your borders, you do not understand anyone and no one cares either
To all who posses a house:
Beyond your house, your privacy will be violated
Beyond your bedrooms, you are no porn star!
Beyond your bathrooms, you are not a rock star!
To all who posses a business:
Mind your own business!
Beyond your business, it's not your business!
To all who posses any matters:
Beyond your possessions, you are the beggar!
Beyond your possessions, it is the "Mine" of others and nothing else matter!
To all who posses a belief:
Beyond your beliefs, you have nothing to believe
Beyond your beliefs, you are lost like an autumn leaf
To all who possess a culture:
Beyond your culture, you have no culture!
Beyond your orient culture, you are disoriented
Beyond your dear culture, your wild-fruit-basket is punctured
To all who posses a friend:
Beyond your friends, you are lonely and deserted
Beyond your friends, you are the most stranger of all
To all who posses youth:
Beyond your youth, your back gets as round as a circle!
Beyond your youth, you are an old star with no audience
Beyond your youth, you are an old prophet with no follower
To all who posses life:
Beyond life, you are corpse of bad odor
Beyond life, no-one can bear you for a moment
To all who posses a troubled mind:
Beyond your troubled mind, there is a beautiful mind!
Hold on to your troubled minds!
Hold on patiently to the pain of rejection
The Day of Beautiful mind will come!
Beyond Other Things:
Beyond a glass of water, there is a bottle of beer
If you have it, you'll have no fear!
Beyond a bottle of beer, there is a glass of wine
If you have it, you'll stop the whine!
Beyond a glass of wine, there is a bottle of champagne
If you have it, you'll start a new campaign
Beyond love there is reason
In the reason, you'll find your prison!
Beyond darkness there is light
Both being the same for the one with no-eyesight!
Beyond the priests there are the laymen
The only difference, their acquaintance with the hymen!
Beyond human there is the saint
With no fault, he is like a pale paint!
Beyond your daily routine, there is an exciting life
Which you can easily destroy by getting a wife!
Beyond sitting on your butt there is an adventurous ride
Which one to choose? I let you to decide!
