Mind Control

TV, cable and billboards
laptop video and ipods
.
push, squash & re-do
the mind like mashed potato
.
the hot new liquid chip
blue green and cheap
implanted in the brain
will flush the mind down the drain
.
but the soul flies free
with photos and poetry...:)
===================
This got triggered by the post on Morgana's blog
"control mental versus lavardo de cerebro"
great poetry in photos !

As The Year Falls

the act waltz to a close
just as lights fade and curtain falls
to mark the end of the year's play
yet the applause lingers to stay
.
the heart is so full
of the part played so well
within the script and feel
and the directors' spell
.
yet a few times straying out
as the soul yearns to break out
wanting to change the lines and cast
go back and modify the past
.
still the urge to keep playing
many a role that keep unfolding
at work, at love, as a friend
while the act and truth closely bind
.
much after the dusk falls
and shadows climb on granite walls
the cast and the world gone to sleep
weariness on mind and body creep
.
look into myself in the mirror so deep
and smile at what is true and what is not
.
twinkling darkness in the eye
viels restless dance of a firefly
.
peel off a bit of paint
tear off a bit of mask
.
tape together the New Year look
am ready for the next act :)
