The Tender Heart Of Sadness

Just look at the world….sheesh…

anybody alive feels something.

We all want to save the world,

or we just want to save ourselves,

or we want to destroy the world.

Every manifestation of mind is 

represented, now on display 

everywhere at once. It’s quite a show

and the truth is stranger than fiction.

We haven’t seen most of it, but we will.

Meanwhile, my coffee tastes great today.

Feeling chipper, sparse people, the 

kaleidoscope moves the colors, the portly

old ladies gossiping along, beautiful moms

and kids. That’s what I see, that’s my 

manifestation you silly hopium salesmen.

This is real, not that dream. The only sure 

thing is the money you steal…but there I go,

besides myself again. Don’t cry, Grasshopper,

we all go this way.
