Where is our future
If the youth of today
Are a timelines status
And a programmed computer
Our workforce
Where will we be when
Our ten thousand followers
Gobble our every word?
Motivation for their lives?
Where is our future
If even our leaders
Cannot speak words of truth
Do not display ethics
Ten thousand people should hold?
When do we realize
We are not in control?
When we are no longer listening
To our inner wisdom?
Instead, steadfast and determined
To follow the voice
Of this flickering display.

Compile Errors (day 187)
I see lines and lines
That spin real fast
They close they open
They slam on the brakes
The time it took
For this built code
Is far too long
And moving far too slow
Perhaps I’m inadequate
Perhaps my skill’s low
Perhaps it’s just hard
Complicated computations
I’ve tried very hard
I’ve not slept much at all
I’ve not seen the outdoors
It seems it’s years
So please, dear computer
Make my night tonight
Make me happy inside
With a compile to smile about
What I Need (day 119)
I don’t need a friend
I don’t need a mother
I don’t need a car
I don’t need a lover
I don’t need a sister
I don’t need a brother
I don’t need a shoe
I don’t need a nother
I don’t need a house
I don’t need a player
I don’t need a roof
I don’t need a dinner
I don’t need a mind
I don’t need a helper
I don’t need a soul
I don’t need a savior
I don’t need a bike
I don’t need a computer
I don’t need a airplane
I don’t need a traveler
I don’t need a suitcase
I don’t need a prayer
I don’t need a garden
I don’t need a teacher
I don’t need a way
I don’t need a answer
I don’t need a goal
I just need us
And that’s the truth.
