The Greater Three

The Greater Three is a collective of resolutions from a small group of friends living in Las Vegas. We've designed this blog as a catalyst for our effort. To share our insights, we meet regularly on Tuesday nights over coffee &/ beer.

rent

how can you live rent free in my head

Why is that even though i know youre in your office im still trying to always look for you

how come im in lust with an idea of you

i cant deal with how my minds made up

A character on who it really wants

Im going mental

Literally have to keep myself busy from thinking of you

Always on my mind

im minding my own

Doing me but youre always in my head

i want my mind to include my heart on this one

My heart literally has no comment or hasn’t even showed up

Floating in the pool

Rain comes

as i open my eyes there is lightning growing roots

i hear the thunder rumbling softly with my ears in the water

an old man on his knees praying in front of his yard cup two other men watch on while sitting on the ledge of the bushes as i walk past them one man collapses on his back on the rocks and starts to shake *it looks like hes having a seizure* i walk pass them three men hover around a metal plate on the ground with wires sticking out and i overhear *i dont know* from one of them while observing the wires while i arrive and wait for the deuce bus i see a man feeding pigeons their daily bread

Contour drawing/ Prayer

unsteady i am

because i dont want to walk a fine line,

though it is the right thing to do.

Oh religious whisper i have found in me

what forms do my distastes take?

How long should i sing for release?

  if it is never said aloud it cannot be a lie but a possibility

  I want to look into your dreams

I want to lick the mind that has ransomed mine for illumination

II.

appetite is relative,

its an hors d'oeuvre for the dogmatic foodie.

commentary relish.

The diet starves the desire for coercion -

to trade teaspoons for the healthy mouthful.

But thirst isnt relative.

Perhaps it is more easily said that....  we are what we drink.

hunger curbed if thirst indulged

I.

it chose him, it adored from afar

he thought unkind and unclean of his pursuit

he waged war against his own laws

his own reasons not to

vindicated through spoken addendum

his impulsion's overwrite as congress

his intention's are not only made lawful but necessary

the victim is unconscious to such constitutions

all is lost before its arbitrary
