Ricardo Antonio Garcia

Your poems gave me such happiness!
Filled me with inspiration!
Made me question my own abilities 
and work harder to compete!
To know I will never again see your words
or feel your spirit has broken me. 
May you forever sleep with angles.
Good night my friend. Sleep well!

GOD IS MIND
Ricardo Antonio Garcia

Eyes yet not fully awake…
I sit at my poet’s desk for an odyssey between worlds
and the quill behaves dismally.
I’ve become a time traveler amidst this nonsense
for what does the 21st. century provide…
when my atheistic thirst is nigh…?
It only stops to compromise me…
when my mind scribes that which the World denies
and I feel a policing defusing.

There are no Queens or Kings to cantor against
‘cept for the paranoia of government…
junctioning its citizens to not speak against them.
Their cells will torment such betrayers
and water boarding is a reptilian effort still watering
as its historic consequence forms.
I no longer watch the clock for my words timing
or for that matter contrite rhyming…
when time is a precious and procuring commodity.

The Shepard does not lose his sheep…
amidst the cadence of natural and deliberate honesty
for we have weathered such waste...
as a brutal form of nonlinear entertainment.
Constant stars… always open new windows…
whether in science or space..
raise the quota of your unique vocabulary.
Toss the wristwatch into the ocean
and you will see how much time you will save
before the buffering kills the pain…

My eyes are slowly awakening…
and I’m always amazed at what the hidden mind says
against the taught standards of our day.

God is mind.

Thanks Tony. He really made me question rather I did the art justice. He gave me something to aspire to and that will be missed. It was a selfish relationship I should have nurtured into more but I was so intimidated I couldn't really fine words.
