Preach

The handle on the coffee pot

The sign upon the stall

Your opinion is your religion

Though you think it, no fact at all

Carried with false humility

The arrogance oozes out

Preaching your perfection

While your self-worth you tout

Everyone can see the truth

Except for maybe you

Only fooling those like yourself

With pettiness to prove

Seek

Beards and black glasses

Society in classes

We seek to be elite

Relativity to beat

Our pursuits frivolous

Until they’re all envious

Help this goal to change

Priorities to rearrange

Instead of being a star

Simply being who we are

The one who seeks to be cool

Is labeled still just a fool

Plan

As the light dims
So does his hope
The briefness of it
Enables him to cope
Her comfort, his strength
Such loss to fear
Time the cruel joke
News no one wants to hear

Fake

Makeup over wrinkles

A shiny car at three

Their best pontification

Not as wise as they claim to be

A foundation shaky and hidden

The weakness never revealed

The flaw would undermine them

A hypocrite fights to conceal

We live in fear of judgments

Of those who claim their turn

With a grip of death they cling

Because to them the truth will burn

Wonder

Telling a story with no words

The two, such a sight to behold

Ever changing, always amazing

Touching, the strongest fold

Rending hearts apart

Many long but can’t attain

Only temporary bliss

Followed by the sharpest pain

LH

Step

To admit his doubt, afraid

Desiring to believe

Fearful that truth is true

What he wants, he can’t conceive

Selfishness a label

Motive, a Trojan horse

Guilt lorded ore them

By one with no remorse

Treading

Fear and desire for freedom
Revenge that shows no heart
Forgiveness because the ego blinds
Wielding indignation as an art
Slowly drowning with a smile
Last breaths breathed free
Peace still comes no matter
A wrong they'll never see
