This is a slam poem. It questions reality and the overall importance of our existence.
Stress
The pain that has no end
Aches
Feeling
Love.
A stress of its own, circling forever

There is no beginning to this bending circle,
And without death, there is no end.
But even then, is there end?
And after life is done, then do we comprehend?
This one circle
Tangled mass
Ball of yarn
All of this… life.

The love that is stress and stress that is love
All these emotions sent from above
And the pain tears and rips at my heart
One would know if one was smart
That without pain there is no heart
But concealed in pain, one wonders how good thou really art.

Work
And of this work, what comes of it?
Does it matter?
Does anything but worth its chatter, really matter?
And why?
But what of this matters to you?
Doest it matter to me?
For time will and has since flew,
And of late when kingdoms pass
And fall from skies to the very last…
Will it matter?
Will anything matter?
Truly. What does it mean… to matter?


Circles
TaNgLeD mAsS
NEVER ENDING FLOW OF…
Feeling
Life
Love
Thoughts.

Meaningless thoughts…
Profound thoughts…
Which do you possess?
And which do I possess?
And who is to preside,
Who to discard and who abide.
But dot they matter?
And does anything matter?
Life

But one who thinks must think of God
For if not He, then think of who?
For God loves and is love too
And without him there is no love for me or for you
And the love is a part of this circle
The never ending tangled mass.

So if God is love and love is life,
Then should not God be a part of life?
But if we choose to cast Him out,
Then do we also throw love to different route?
And are, therefore, we without life?
THEN does this circle end?
Where death of not the body but the soul occurs.
Thus heaven in life still soars
And only does the circle end and death set in where hell’s flame roars.

But if nothing matters, then do…
Feelings
Love
Thoughts
Stress
Emotion
Exist?
One may ponder, but one will conclude, that yes! Indeed! They DO exist!
For somehow we know and sense and perceive them through the mist.

Which throws to blame that humans are forever in denial.
Our greatest fault, our lifelong immaturity that
We…
DID not
CAN not
DO not
Will not
UNDERSTAND
And without understanding there lacks meaning and therefore the ability…
TO MATTER
Forever
The Circle
