Going today to the beach,
Rufuz says my batteries need recharge,
We unfortunately won't be long out of reach,
See you all later as then I may have something to preach...

Overloaded circuits…


Burned out?


Just about?


Pass the anti-depressants,


Maybe I need a rubber room,


In a home of convalescents…


 


A battery jump maybe I do need,


My brain patterns all gone to seed,


Wish I could my sad thoughts be freed,


To the gods for my sanity I do plead…


 


Passed over,


Can’t find a four-leaf clover,


No one to screw from a state with the capitol Dover,


Better I am to tell the dog to just roll-over…


 


Sleep does be what I do desire,


Staying awake for days leaves me like on a tight wire,


Touched I am, my sanity waning,


Wish instead it would snow, rather than just raining…

The beach is a great place to go when the mind feels scattered. Meanwhile I'll blow you some snow from here. We don't have much but I will share what I can;-)

Enjoy the beach let it teach
as the ocean speaks let go of the freaks
that fill the ear with thoughts of fear
come back and tell that you left hell
..........behind..........

love,
Eileen

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
