2 + 2 does not equal four.
For me it is some number more.
On this we may disagree
but to life added diversity.
Accepting my answer maybe not
but don't persuade my knowledge or thought.
Let be the religion that mean so much to me
I'll let be your perceptions of equality
In this way we live in harmony
Now let us be who we are
and peace is with us where we are.
Alright this is the first run. I know this needs some work. I really want to try to develop this a bit first.

Searching
The only way I find myself is lost.
My imagined presence lurks here.
Wanting a place but never embraced.
Time lingers away leaving me alone.
Look harder then deeper to what is known.
Absent thoughts that envision the mirage.
Fading images vanish before my touch.
Something tangible needs to felt by me.
The want is a simple location, a here.
Though I travel and look the spot eludes.
The home is my invented illusion, belonging.
My defiance the house of card I've built.
Loneliness precedes each step taken.
There is nothing ahead of me less behind.
To continue forward placing hope over despair.
I walk, I will always walk. I look, I will always look.

Obvious Plaque
Got something to say.
Be heard!
Got somewhere to go.
Get there!
Desire the dream.
Work hard!
Want someone's heart.
Give love!
Raise a beautiful family.
Be support!
Looking to find God.
Have faith!
Get the obvious advice
Retail space!?
There are these inspirational plaques that have been in the retail stores and peoples homes. Few of them have any meaning. I got annoyed at them for some reason and wrote this. I need to figure out how to drive my point home in the last stanza.

Divorce
I find the relationship of you and me
owing the world an apology.
The screaming and fighting
the harsh words said
Throwing and tossing
flying plates at the head.
Each of us wishing
the other was dead.
The reason to stay
can't have a why.
So sign this letter
from my lawyer
as I part with bye.
Hopefully I never have to go with this, sure my wife and I fight but at the end of the day I can beat her up, I got her by about 130 pounds. Just kidding, geeez. No it's a sad situation but I can say that divorce usually makes the miserable happier. Try to work it out but if you're punishing each other end it, I was actually relieved to find out my parents would no longer be screaming at each other every night.

Foundation
Thirsty root stretch into the ground. Dig deeply to find the water supply. The abundance of leave hanging overhead waiting for you to be fed. The dependence of life hanging on your search. Burrow further, burrow further than ever before. Now more than every we depend on you more and more. Go into the dark depths of the ground to explore like a the fearless force of nature continue to sprout every brand every leave. Without the roots the tree ceases to be only how but absence of thee.

John Doe
The trash the smell it's dinner tonight.
Looks and stares while I scavenge for fare.
Rather than go hungry risk getting sick.
Haven't eaten for day so the meals worth it.
Look for a place to sleep isn't hard to find.
A good park bench and a two dollar bottle of wine.
An overpass should it rain finding the soothing sounds of a train
Rest during the day with no where to go.
Fearing the night and everyone I don't know
Some people help other look at their own shame.
Eventually to drift from this world just an unknown name.
I like the line with the train but I am not sure it fits. I will have to get back to this one.

Distraction
The blue screen swallows them connected without connection.
A look without insight the virtual prose of words not felt.
The e-world looking glass surrounded by the universe about.
Head dropped forward eyes empty glare meet a life going nowhere.
Lacking breeze, no air suffocating electricity the virtual bare.
A prompt to like reactions of described food without taste.
Pictures of wished experiences that will never take place.
Break free from the broadcast of tablet induced smartphones.
The world is here waiting for you to join in on the race.
Alright got this down. Pretty clear message here. I have to fine tune the meter and rhyme still.
