Expectations create hurdles to the presence of the real before you,
xenophobia builds a wall to keep others outside of the country,
presidential bias may create more problems than offer solutions,
expect nothing to gain wisdom to overcome certain situations,
conditions pre-exist always though insurance begs to differ in thought,
to contradict power with reason is science used for exacting means,
anxiety about the present goes away with the arrow of time,
troubles resolve themselves in war never without outside intervention,
insurrection occurs when authority fails to account for others,
organized religion insulates and contains a community bound,
nothing determines facts better than evidence in material form,
similarities found in the text may exist as art imitates life,
create the world you want, serial killers do, if they can, so can you,
real happiness arrives when the hunger to do as you so please subsides,
each person is different, this much we believe true, but tough to ascertain,
as God is my witness, to observe the given is to perceive the real,
trust can never be healed, once a bond is severed, the limb becomes phantom,
eventually, a wound heals, the scar disappears, but the skin remembers,
hurdles are obstacles, man-made, not metaphors, expectations are ours,
understanding cannot overcome the loss, the failures of childhood,
resolve difficulties if and when possible, do not turn a blind eye,
difficulties persist out of neglect, like dust, they gather like rabbits,
lessons we learn appear meaningless over time, wisdom feels like madness,
elegant games we play as adults to pretend we are not animals,
sexual politics appears in all actions to those aware of facts,
take your time when busy, mistakes made must be cleaned by someone who takes care,
on pain of death, betray no one, for confidence gained in secret is trust,
take my hand with a knife if you feel it will help me to become a man,
however, to make threats, idle or otherwise, to a child is brutal,
even my own parents should have known better but psychology was lost,
people create others, shape them from words and deeds, like Frankenstein's monster,
rely on language games to overcome trauma, or learn an instrument,
ego gets in the way of one's recovery, the self does not exist,
self is simply fiction, as a shadow follows or precedes in sunlight,
enter the world of truth, if you can find the door, the one that says "EXIT",
nothing remains hidden, everything transparent, nearly invisible,
closure comes from a choice, an intentional act to decide to be free,
everything has a price, a cost, and takes its toll in change at the crossing,
only expectations undermine relations, everything else is fine,
for disappointment lurks behind comments open to interpretation,
the real is a fiction, to go beyond the real, lift the veil, see a smile,
horror stories exist where marriages dissolve in love lost and broken,
ever aware of trust mismanaged by landlords, owners file for divorce,
remember when we first fell in love, the mad rush, endorphins and hormones,
enchanting as people appear, I am bored stiff, I envy the dead more,
although the eternal return of the same, and samsara make me live,
lift the veil, see the smile, fleeting phenomenon, a moment to feel joy,
burdened with a satchel, the contents light as air, still the satchel is mine,
ever aware of the past informing the future as in the present tense,
foreigners are strangers only to those people who do not know themselves,
on penalty of death, I speak lightly of love, may lightning strike me dead,
remember our friendship, may that memory last, so long as it tastes good,
eventually flavors subside and we move on, a geographic fact,
you are someone I trust to propagate the trees under this dome of sky,
our friendship has not past but as adults, we act as politics demands,
understand I love you even beyond the grave, lift the veil, see the smile.
