A Question For Authority

by sam flot 2004

Back in the day

All hung up

On a wall

In the Museum of Futility

Compassion was the catch phrase

Under trees of shade or sunsets

Always playing the game

Close to the vest

Taking and using every advantage

Hyper-hypocritical

In staking off the high ground

Only games of strategy

Are played n a flat board

On an even playing field

Nothing like

Helping out

By reporting “suspicious activities” and

“unsafe conditions”

Either in public oratories or

In one’s own home

I have a question for authority

Where’d ya get that hat?

Looks great on you

Matches your outfit

Really works on you!

But don’t you feel like hell?

It’s been like the old days lately

You been on quite a bender

Havin’ a good time

Lyin’

Cheatin’

Lootin’

Stealin’

Gutting the constitution

Gutting the rules which enforce

Checks and balances

Gutting the environment down to a stump

You’ll be all apologies

When the bender’s over

And

It must be

Very tiring

Very exhausting

Still I gotta ask one question

Where’d ya get that hat?

Action! by Sam Flot 2017

Action!

Protected corrections

With ability

With facility

To maintain, sustain and regain

I keep telling myself

Stop all the complaining and Action!

Stop sharing ones and zeroes and Action!

Teach yourself about your self

Learn about your will and your intention and then

Move them to Action!

Nothing gets done without Action!

Grab some traction, convince a faction, educate a fraction

Drop your phone back in your pocketor

Grab a plug and find a socket

Recharge and be ready to Action!

Be prepared to manage your own reaction

Etiquette in tact not lacking

Reminding my self not to settle for

The lowest common denominator

Stay original and respectful when you Action!

Leave no questions while riding the curve of change on a circle

Riding the curve of time on a turtle

Get off the couch and find your touch

Preferential to any senses deferential

Follow your inner prodigy

To find your mystic profit

Cloudyards in the Earthsky Earth

by Sam Flot 2009

Unfounded groundlings soaring

On feats of complex contexts

Write the flow you know

Interlocking the pieces

Knowing the way will illuminate

The light that leads me

Down a path of green grass

Through or over the black asphalt

Horns are announcing arrival

Of a passing through

Expressing the urgency of caution and

Tracks and trains and crossings

Sides, spurs and stoppings

The other side

Dropping off the storyline

Only to return aligned

Intersections are everywhere

You don’t need to even stare

Crossing paths without collapse

The roads cross and the realms will meet

Simple moments

In the rain on the run

Living lifelong connections

That never short circuit

Sides and sides

Which side are you on?

Which side are you off?

Annnndd did I forget to mention?

We’re all on the same side

Despite the conclusion you may have come to

I am one and

You are too

We all intersect

No competition exists

Same side’s’ all I’m sayin’

No game will deliver you

From the game you’ve been playin’

Same as same says we’re different

Same as said same existence

Which side are you on if my side is your side?

You’re either with us

Or you’re with us

The choice isn’t up to you or your ball cap

One same as the other

Any different difference is a trap

The Page & The Paragraph

By Sam Flot

2017

The volume is ample, supple and visceral

The message is heavy with thought

Delivered lightly like a digable dirigible  

The audience is open and their ears are big

Clear focus is tantamount to preferable varying levels of full

The attention bill is paid up right now and

A certain page is place we all settle

The same page this time

We’re in sync and in flow

We’re a part of it

We are it

We all settle on the same page and

No one follows

No one leads

We settle in the same paragraph

Across centuries and countries

Across purposes and porpoises

Across oceans and mountains

We all find some way to be here now

We settle in the same page

The same paragraph

The field is open wide

The possibilities are endless

The path is as long as it is wide and

We all must exist together on this floating dirigible

In sync and in flow   

We bend

We listen

We think

In the flow and

In sync
