No Love but Walls

To take and to give love
Takes an open and a light heart.
No walls
No bridges
No escape from route.
Life experience
Thickens the walls.
Makes it impossible to get in.
No love but walls.

Stay to cry

Over 7,200,000,000 people on Planet Earth
Over 7,200,000,000 of cries
Some cry daily
Some cry once
A horrible voice of crying

Some cry from a broken heart
Some cry from pain and sorrow
Some for no reason
Stay with me
And you will cry.

Just a point of view

He is the gentlest person
You will ever meet
He was convicted of
Killing 14 people

Celebrate Diversity

Zambia Gabon Zimbabwe Senegal Nigeria Republic of Congo
Tens of millions of people live in the darkness of no hope
Many with no access to drinkable water
No gas to cook meals
They never felt as low as
During the opening of the Olympic Games
London 2012
All dressed in fantastic white
Fantastic lights above the stadium
Fantastic fireworks around
The sky and the ground become a single enlightened entity
Celebrate Diversity
Respect it.

I could have had a Child

Once in a while
It comes to me:
I could have had a daughter or a son
They're not with me.
At that time it was an act of facing
reality
I refused to be forced
To change my plans
Rationality declared its superiority.
But I could have had a child
That was never born.
It could be you
And I love you.

You're Not Inert

What ever you do
There's somebody to claim it
To whom you will have to pay
No one is free of that.
You're not inert.

You will never be left alone
by your self.
You're made of atoms
Those are made to interact
To give and to receive energy.

A chemistry is going on
No exceptions
No excuses given
You're not inert.

Saying: I need nothing
Will not help you
It's unrelated to the power matters
To the energy flow.
You're not inert.

My Time is Running Out

My time is running out
It makes me nervous
I don't know how much time is left
I speak in a hurry
I eat fast-food
I speed in my car
I don't sleep
I don' loose time
If I could just move as fast as
The light
But it came at night.

The Mirror Lover

You're carefully watching yourself.
Daily
Usually after walking out of the night,
Just before you open yourself to the light.
Making wired grimaces at the mirror.
Inviting it to come closer.
You expose yourself with no limits.
Flattening ringlets that suddenly rose.
Smoothing you lips,
To ensure they can hold a lover.
If needed, some vivid colors will be added.
Do you deserve the love of the mirror?
It's hard to admit.
You're smiling at the mirror.
He's your lover.

I cry with you America

You were the last hope on the globe.
No more Americas
No more place for the poor
To be a landowner
To fulfill the dream.

What's left is being chopped
to small pieces
Smaller all the time
No place to escape
No place to live.

I cry with you America
You can't fulfill
You can't provide
No place for a dream.

To be a poet

It's not for me to deliver the message
It's not for me to educate the masses
It's not for me to direct the way
I'm not paid to do so.
It's for me to write a poem
I pay for it.

When ever you cry

Think of an untouchable light
It's looking upon you
Spreading its light for eternity
Even so, you're in a dark of darkness
Your flesh and Its light are made of one
You can feel that He is around
When ever you cry.

I'm with you

No time to spare
It's time for the lyrics of America:
Ponca Shawnee Chippewa Mohawk Navajo Hopi
Cherokee Choctaw Iowa Sioux Shakopee Apache
Crow Cheyenne Comanche Kiowa Pawnee Wichita
Caddo Chinook Chumash
Hundreds more.

All become a savage Reds
In their land
I don’t know about their ways
Where Their spirit is
Their soul is. Where

Wherever they are
I'm with them.
We're outrunning the Phantom rumble
Tatanka*bulls
We're catching fish
In crystal clear lakes
I'm a feather wing of theirs
Eagle Spirit.
I'm with you.
