Peace and Zen.



December december, the end of the year.
A time for festivities and cheer,
To find joy in our existence,
and solstice in the world of retail and food.

In this cyclical renewal,
Take a step back to take a step forward.
Thus far and further,
To where we have cometh and to where the headings precede.

The tides of Change,
Bringing away the most dire of moments this year,
and draws hope for the future,
To where the journey begins,
To wherein the journey heads,
To wherein the journey ends.

Beyond the fleeting shores of desire and retail,
Hold dear the relationships that grace us,
No matter how transient they may be.

To wherever we will go,
To wherever we have came,
To wherever the journey ends.

Deep city lights



Dusk beckons the fading of the light,
the cityscape that gives respite,
from the stressors of work,
to the tireless transport commute...

Lights that gave life to concrete,
illuminating the duality of Night,
of serenity and calm,
of transiency and the fleeting moment...

Herein, lies the deep city lights.
(Trax, 2011)
