REBIRTH

Hi all. It has been quite a long time since I updated this blog. I have some bittersweet news. This blog has officially ended, I will not be updating it again beyond this post. The good news is, the blog has been reborn as a Facebook page of the same name:

Thanks to those who have followed my work over the years, you are greatly appreciated!

Best wishes always,

Truth

If everyone in the world would just understand this truth, Earth would be a much happier place (found this on FacBook)...

An Incredibly Gutsy Artist

the sun shines black,
blossoms burst from decay -
life is an abstract concept,
reality? decadence at play...

brooding

lost and forgotten...
aren't we all?
who doesn't have a story,
who doesn't have a tragedy,
who doesn't have a tear?

who
doesn't
have
a


fear?

can you hear?
your heart, your soul -
calling,
falling,

lost...

scrambling among the vines,
tearing for freedom,
clawing for life...

why?

WHY?


where have we gone?
what have we done?

oh, what a world...
oh, the humanity...


bollocks


oh, what a fantasy...
oh, the automatons...


slaves

to

themselves

and

others...


Shit, he has it,
gotta get one
gotta get one,
NOW...


counting sheep,
should be shooting sheep,
mindless flock...


when

did

we

stop

thinking?


when

did

we

stop

feeling?


when

did

man

die?




...i cry....


why?



WHY?!?






...we die...
