STAND TALL

mad hippie poet 1974 (new jersey)



Pick your battles to win the wars that lay in front of you the watch your every step so as you move in the shadows they do not know that which you do. the silence that now hides inside your voice confuses them, your actions with thoughts and not anger blinds them into retreat.no I will not bow down at their feet.

I swim inside this ocean of mystery and when I am done I move on to the next uncharted sea looking for the answers with the hope that these assassins will not find and kill me with their power of judgment. I need strength a miracle something from the heavens sent
