Happy Child

"Happy Child"

Lost happy child lying by the side of a crowded city street.

A 20 million-year-old blue moon's weep.

Businesses work against the world's time clocks.

A venomous snake sheds against a jagged rock.

Leaping into space with a bound around an empty space.

Life is lost, then found.

A million-year-old man misses his lover's kisses.

Reactions to a strange dream's sensation.

In life's visual variation's sensations.

My libation's vibrations

Whether Vain

"Whether Vain"

In some old fashion manner my mind rotates like a spinning top and revolves like the planets around the sun in my solar system.

This is because Doctor Amantadine, Miss Simvastatin, a dog named named Propranolol, and Vitamin D3 have helped and stuck by me after all these years.

Lived in the cavern of my brain with the primitive artwork on the walls.

I never saw sunshine except when I was younger.

The sun always won in my golden years.

Another Me

"Another Me"

"Everyone wants 'another me'".

But, where is the other you?

The world is full of rejects putting each other down.

Immediate gratification is what we need in our daily lives.

Spend until you drop - dead.

Always remember that yes, "poverty sucks."

This age is one of gimmicks and gadgets.

Nothing has changed since man first came to earth.

I saw a double moon last night in the Sinai and a triple one in the Kalahari.

Zebras mate in the park and Pelicans wing in the dark.

The world began to cry.

I can't lie, so did I.

Now the world is starting to sober up, as it turns dry.

Ominous clouds in the sky roll by in the sky.

The rains come.

The desert sands smell.

Traveling Through Time

"Traveling Through Time"

I travel through jungles of experiences in my mind.

Running through time and space at an alarmingly quick pace.

I'm found at another place.

I hide behind the wall in your mind.

My thoughts concealed.

Revealed always and only forever to you.

I'm another person to different people.

No two people see the same likeness.

Every second person is different.

The world would be insane if we were all exactly alike.

It's God's insane sanity.

Everything was created differently by God for sanity's sake.

I love the difference.

Love your world and it will love you back.

Hate the world and it will hate you back.

I love you all no matter how sane you tend to get.

Take a right at the light and day will turn into night

"Take a right at the light and day will turn into night."

I'm quoting what I heard Casanova say as he wooed his lover with a Bosanova.

I hear lots of things.

I even heard the world was flat when George Bush ran things.

Maybe Casanova was a myth too.

I was told that luck and love are the greatest treasures on earth, but health is the more significant.

Without your health, you’re impoverished, I tell myself.

"Hey you!"  I yell "How did you hurt yourself, or were you born that way?"

My secret desire is to be a Casanova and dance with the women.

I'd like to find a girl I could dance with and hold tight in my arms.

A lover for all times.

The ocean's waves keep crashing but I get nowhere in affairs of the heart in true love.

I don't mean to sound glum because I always have friends and ears that listen to complaints.

I will love you much more.

Psychologically Speaking

"PSYCHOLOGICALLY SPEAKING"

DEAREST A.D.:

I WENT TO MY SHRINK WHO HAS A COLLECTION OF SHRUKEN HEADS
ON HER OFFICE DESK.  HE AND ALL THE OTHER SHRINKS HAVE TO TAKE
PLENTY OF SHIT IN THEIR FIELD.  THEY ALL HAVE GREEN PASTURES IN
THEIR HEADS AND OUT IN THE FIELD TO KEEP THEM SANE.  THEY ALWAYS
HAVE TO KEEP EACH OTHER COMPANY SO THEY CAN REACH AN AGREEMENT
OUT IN THE FIELD.  THEY'RE ALWAYS AWARE OF ANY POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS
FROM THEIR MEDICATIONS.

Dear Andy

Dear Andy-

It's God's secret laughter that makes us mock things when we're young, which we become more a part of, as we grow older, wiser, and stupider.  I'm envious of my youthful daze.  Love you my baby, honey child.  Happy Birthday!  May you always be my younger sister.  Love you for all my time.

Your older brother,

Jon

 

P.S. - The only thing God won't let us steal is time!

Turning On The Light While Tuning In

"Turning On The Light While Tuning In"

Passing the light and day turns into night.

Saw the fish spit out their pebbles on the Jewish gravesites.

As birds fly by high in the sky, the world starts to cry.

Rain falls and heaven calls my father.

Spending the sleepless nights with late night TV.

I go on patrol with a remote control.

Scroll down on the computer as junk mail sails to my e-pail.

Just like the advertisements in the postal mails, which end up in garbage pails.

Get different feedback from different people.

I'm different too.

No two people can be exactly alike unless they're the same person.

Shaloma Aroma

"Shaloma Aroma"

Aroma Shaloma!  The atmosphere is light and beautiful.  A chai latte beans' delight.  The attitude toward customers is quite right even at the end of the day's long night.  To me it speaks and is a vigorous sight for the day's new face's fight in flight. Despite its motion's moving moments which is never uptight.  Always looking up towards the heavens in its perfect high.  Dave just gives a sigh and starts to cry to the caffeinated God above.  Starbucks coffee can't compare to Aroma's aroma of roasted beans. The Starbuck's cow gives juice instead of Aroma's exotic coffees and delightful teas.  The Aroma's honey that's worth more than real millions in money. Feasts of toasted bagels, bialys, muffins, peanut buttered jellied rolls, with real butter. Strawberry, bonita, poquita, chiquita, havanna, banana and dozens more tasty treats which knock the customers out of their seats and onto the floor before they fly out the door.  As the regulars know, it's one hell of a store.  John is there every morning, busily preparing breakfast and having amiable chats with the morning crowds and laughing with the pets and children.  I idolize his secret recipe's special rapport with all of them.  The mean green organic caffeine I drink at Aroma's Coffee Roast drowns my stomach in a sea of deliciously natural flavored tea.  I'll see you there tomorrow morning as the Roosters crow.

I Saw God And Was Drunk

"I Saw God And Was Drunk"

Saw my Father in the statue of a monk.

God help me - I wasn't drunk.

A tree's trunk really stunk.

It took me 20 years to clear my funk.

Like Van Ronk, I sang my tunes.

Every summer in afternoon's Junes.

Giant ballrooms where people danced to this melody.

But never in harmony.

Black as blue and true as night.

God will stop our little fight.

God tries with all his might.

Is that wrong or is that right?

One New Year's Eve I talked to the Rabbi Steve.

He didn't mean to deceive or mislead.

But he told me what came from my heart was truth.

What about life's sore tooth?

It started for me in the kissing booth.

And I ended up with a Babe named Ruth.

Now I don't know how I treated my kid.

But I really got a bid to get rid of this kid.

Struck out on my balls.

Like wandering down some halls in an evening's waterfalls.

Somehow my car stalls.

And I give it my everything's alls.

A dream calls.

Good day world!

I'll strive to survive whenever I awake from my dream's obscene screams.

Just want to join your team.

Love U Bill!

Favor's Flavors

"Favor's Flavors"

You may not have known this, but favors come in flavors.

Orange, vanilla, raspberry, boysenberry, and blueberry too.

The bigger the favor, the sweeter the flavor.

An example of this is coffee peach with vanilla twirl.

My lover gave me a taste of her whorl.

What a dish!

She was all flavors, in every wish.

Like a pistachio butterscotch.

Almond pecan is another favorite son's one.

All rolled into one additional sum.

Painters paint these flavors just for fun in the sunny sun.

You taste at your own chosen speed.

Take your time, your flavor is fine.

Our taste buds are a God given talent's treat.

It can make an audience stayed glued to their seat.

Or make them clap their feet.

Everybody has their own unique tastes.

All flavors are fine.

Small favors come in big flavors.

Delightfully rich!

Wouldn't you say?

Good Can Be Bad

"Good Can Be Bad"

Imagine no good or bad, no right and wrong.  An animal is turned onto this enlightenment unlike the human being.  Wars and oppression are only in the animal kingdom for the sake of sexual dominance or protection of families.  I don't get it!  I'm a baby pacifier.  I claim to be a baby with no morals, but actually I suck with the best of them. 

What is considered good is not always good - sometimes bad.  I speak of causes like wars.  Poverty is another "necessary evil" in our society and all societies.  There must also always be an underclass with leaders and rules.

These systems are beyond control and conform to some kind of universal rule.  The craziest people in this, our sick universe, are the most sane. That sounds berserk, but we live in the bizarre world where a baby dies every couple of seconds and the end of the world is a realistic fact.  Are we living with the deceased?  Life seems to be beautifully ugly!  As Woody Allen said, "The Universe Is Expanding!" Proof of this is that we are always outgrowing our clothes and our minds.  Finally, our heads and bodies actually shrink until they become dust!

But wait, where there's no life, there's nothing but the illusion of a dream.  Is that what we are living for?  NO!  To enjoy the time we have to think and love the best we can.  Thinking about existence, the way we want it in this reality's fantasy is really the solution to our problems!

Watermelon's Stew

"Watermelon's Stew"

Stay forever.

Never stray.

Don't go away.

You make my love seem new.

I'll never know why you flew away.

Not even to this day.

Come back to stay.

Be my loving friend.

Our love never will end.

I'll send u a kiss that will never miss.

My life is turning into bliss.

Nothing can be amiss.

You are like a sis.

Make my dreams come true.

Don't make me blue.

If you only knew.

In this life's Mulligan Stew.

Watermelon's Hill and Blueberry Skies.

You're my love's highs.

God's great surprise.

Our love never dies.

Only survives for always.

I laugh at the lies in these colored dyes that only your love supplies.

Part of the universe that with your help I am trying to love.

I hope I can help you love yours.

Thanks God!

Friends???

For you will always be my friend!!!

Hopefully, forever, in this empty bottle of space-less time.

Love Me Too - J. Billet
