The Moment
It just maybe all that there is
people say live in the moment,
but have some people forgotten how hard
some people have it in the moment,
and have to look past that shit
how many are in a jail cell, hospital,
at war, a ghetto,
washing dishes somewhere, at a lathe
they are supposed to live in that moment,
and not look to the past or a more bearable future?
the moment can be the most terrible thing there is
Not every one can go to Vegas or an exotic beach
or be around any type of peace or serenity
And that is why some of us look back or forward
And not suffer an often unbearable moment of
Our history

The Spider
Would you believe that all livings things may have come from something like a spider?
not hard for me to believe: the cat, the bull, the kangaroo, frog, bird
all coming from a fucking spider?
not me, I watch the humans spin and weave their webs
predatory, they, we have to be predators
competitions and games, the battle for resources
food, bread and vanity
weaving the web, after
anything could even live on on earth about
five billion something years ago
the animals and insects continue to trap though
warrior and victim
prey against predator
this game, which is played
on our Earth
