Maddening

Slowly we are going crazy,
Slowly we will go insane.
Try to keep your thoughts together
(there really isn’t much to gain).

Let them run and jump about!
(Some notions run amock);
And when you let the crazies start
You know you’ll have good luck.

Uncensored thoughts are novel –
How freeing it can be!
I know that you’ll be happy –
Embrace insanity!

Making sense is not much fun
And making chaos matters;
Upset the buckets in your mind
As all sense spills and scatters.

A bomb of inspiration
Explodes inside your head;
And as the merry thoughts ensue,
You’ll realize you’re not dead.

Don’t fight it, let it happen!
Loosening of the mind.
Let the shackles slip right off –
Enlightenment you’ll find.

Sit there in a stew of thoughts
And stir the pot some more.
Disorganize all order,
Disrupt the thoughts you store!

Being sane won’t get you far,
And being bored can kill.
So let the madness take you,
And take you where it will.

Just let go

Whirling twirling almost hurling

throw yourself into my arms -

Spend your time exploring/learning

time to face our dear world's harms.


Don't hide or shield yourself from wonder

it's all within your reach, my sweet.

Just let your guard down once again

and I'll fall at your feet.


Love life - love me - love it all,

this is the only shot you get...

Be as curious as can be

my lovely little pet.


We'll run and then we'll scamper

and frolic in the night

I know that this is scary

But also it's so right.

Superman

You say it’s so important:
The saving of the world.
But what if she were in it
and compliments you hurled -

And then you kept on going
running far away,
because she was too special
you knew you couldn’t stay.

What happens if you slow down
and let in someone new?
Have you ever thought that this could be
something you would do?

I know you have your goals and dreams,
she does, too, I know -
don’t you see that you could have
your dreams and still not go?

You could love her and be free -
I’ve heard it can be done.
Just take a chance and try it!
Who knows? It might be fun.

To love it is to flourish,
and still let things fly free;
but next time that you run so far
please leave your heart with me.
