Welcome

I started this blog with the intention of displaying some slam poetry. An inspiration given to me by a dear friend, Manders, and his brilliant musings, I took to writing down my thoughts in a poetic and lyrical way. This is what happened...

Along the way I started to realize this would be a good channel to share what was currently going on in my world with whoever is interested. Seeing as my job of late will be taking me on some exciting journeys around the globe, I decided to document them, among my other interests, virtually.

... Thus far, I realize this blog functions as pretty much only my outlet for slams. Maybe there will be more to come... for now... I continue slamming.

Who?

It’s 2:00 o’clock and in my head I wonder.
Is this my life’s biggest blunder?

I barely noticed that I hadn’t blinked.

Moments passing are too succinct.

Where, what, and how I ask.
It’s what I was instructed to complete my task.

Robotic existence has become quite formal.

Imitated contentment is all too normal.

I feed the machine what it wants to survive.
The only problem is I'm not able to thrive.

Who am I pleasing if I'm not pleasing myself?

When I started this life, rapture I put on a shelf.

The question remains then where else should I be?
Once I leave this hotel room, does that set me free?

Questions unanswered lead me more in the dark.

The crusade into my soul, I'm about to embark.

Very prolific and insightful. I see where you're coming from and almost feel as if I am you.
