Gringo Loco's blog: "Poetry"

~Dedicated to my loving wife, thank you for an amazing beautiful daughter. ~ The Greater Purpose 5.19.08 A man wandering life endlessly Seeing a purpose. Days, weeks, years go buy But no purpose is found. Living life in a world Absent of Joy and Love. His world slowly fades to darkness Now he's truly lost. A glimmer of light shines in the distance A sign of Hope and Happiness. Traveling toward the light A beautiful woman emerges. A purpose is found A new life is born.

All in the Family As my children gather A great army will arise, The closer they get The more the world fears. As my chants echo Parent’s minds begin to tremble, As my children move closer The world begins to shake. As my chants become louder They begin to infect the innocent, The fields fill with children Children from nations around the world. They come for one reason One reason alone, To join the family To join my children in the fields.

A Place in My Mind As I open my eyes I see a great world, Many souls wander this world Not seeing what lies in the future, A future of untold possibilities Some may hold true happiness, Others may hold pain and suffering, All will try to leave this world But all will fail, I want to leave this world But I don’t know how, I seek a key I seek a way out, But there is no key Or a way out, I try to close my eyes But I cannot, Now my soul becomes tortured As the rest of this world.

Televised Church 1.7.04 A man of cloth appears; the crowd cheers like puppets obeying their master. A silent hush covers the mass, as the weak and absent minded are brought onto the stage. Words of the almighty echo throughout the hall, While lies are spoken softly. The power of God slams into the forehead, but all that is healed is the greed of the praised. Before the curtain closes, confused souls are carried away from the stage. The minds of the followers never healed, the hearts still Broken and their pockets emptied.

A Sense of Innocence As I approach Her eyes cast downward in shame, As I peer into her eyes I see the fear stricken child inside, As she speaks to me I hear the quiver in her voice, As I move closer to her Her body begins to tremble, As she runs from me I smell the fear that consumes the air, As she hides from me I feel her presence in my world, She will always run She will always hide No matter what she does I will always be there, Watching, waiting, listening.

When it’s Your Time I watch you in your house I watch you on the street I even watch you as you sleep I’m always here I’m always there Though you may not see me I always leave you a message Stating that I was there You start to run You start to hide So you keep your boyfriend by your side He still doesn’t keep me From watching you For you I am your stalker And a message I bring to you When it’s your time, you’re mine.

My Life is a Shadow I am a shadow in this world To some I am dead To others, a ghost of the past No longer seen by you Because the loss of love But here I am rite in front of you Drifting away in the distance Never to be seen again When you’re around me The world goes cold Now I feel empty Like the world you live in.

Shadows I want to wake up in your white world, I want to be seen but you keep me hidden, I want to be heard but you keep me silenced, I want to listen but you send me away, I have no voice, so why should I be, This world is yours, so why do I exist, I start to fade out of this world, But you don’t notice, I slowly lose myself to your world, I am a shadow, void of speaking, Void of hearing, And void of seeing, I am a shadow of your world.

Doom I see you body everywhere I feel my fingers through your hair I taste the blood on your hand I hear the screams as Death ran I smell the death in the room As the Fates seal you doom.

Life Active, beautiful Living, changing, growing Brings joy, brings happiness Death Dead, lifeless Slaying, slaughtering, executing Frees the soul, brings sadness
