Freedom

the green grass and blue water
makes a red sky
much hotter
the high mountains and tall trees
makes a big wind
a small breeze
the thick clouds and flowing rivers
forces a bright star
to glow dimmer
from the surface to the core
and
the land to the sea
everything is one
as we all
stand free.

Insomnia

it lingers through the air
and flows through the brain
darkness approaches
words cannot be spoken
confusion
is arriving
the eyes are unfocused
the mind is trapped
cornered
left rotting
unable to adapt
just a little more
it asks
just a little more
to relax
staring straight ahead
unsure
of reality
