Journeys Of The Mind

These things I've seen - places I've been
They might seem surreal to you - unreal as
I reveal... Though it may seem trivial I see! Trivia and games people play with lives and wives of others... Not bothered they seem!
Trials of teens and dreams of scenes
Believe I've seen, dreamed and been,
Further than the moon you see
And back; back to back trips but
I lacked perspective back when on this
Trip I first set... Tripped on false tips,
Stumbled on false highs and was
Dipped in ditches that required stitches!
Witches had my mind set in the wrong, Set
On gaining rather than over standing - firm.
Set on derailing self instead of standing
Strong mentally - over pedestals and stools
That will stand for ages like pages
From old volumes; tools used for ages to
Conquer over pagans, sages and
Savages in caves and curators of peace!
We may sing freedom but minds sit trapped
We crave for stillness from this illness but;
Still racists rave on
Still haters remain strong
Still generations we destroy
Still slaves we create!
To date;
I'm amazed by these ways for sure,
But surprised no more for sure.
The prize is no more for sure.
The price is zero for sure.
I'm sure the cure will come but for now
These games we continue,
These lives remain as they know
But the "now" is but a short gap in time -
The journeys of my mind continue in time
This chapter is to be continued in time.
