Voice of Reason

Do you think a lemon looks worried about not finishing college and not accomplishing anything in life or not having lots of parties with other hot lemons surrounding him? Does he? Stop comparing yourself to other people just because they might be better than you in some sort of way. Do you think the lemon worry? I don't know what is it with humans thinking that they've all got to be and do and look a certain way in order to be something that matters because other wise they're "not good enough". Do you think the lemon doesn't worry about who they will become or what people think? No, because he understands that he can't look or be or do any other way except his own. He is contented with what he is and what he becomes. Lemonade or something. And that's cool, and that's fine. We should all be lemons because honestly, do you think the lemon cares about what other lemons think about him? Do you think the lemon cares about what he looks like compared to other lemons? Exactly, that's what I mean. Because maybe it is okay to not worry and not care about where you belong in this word. In someway somehow, there will be a meaning to your existence. And a lemon is a lemon and will always be one and you and you and nothing can change that. So don't worry and be what you can be.

1. I fall for the stars

over and over again

every night because

they shine so

brightly without fear

day after day

I'd like to be like that

2. I fall for the sound

of the crashing waves

kissing the sand

each time though

it will be pushed back

to the waters right after

3. I fall for the unread

books on the shelf

always patiently waiting

to be discovered

without fear that they

would be left alone

(they've got each other)

4. I fall for the boxes

of chocolates

you'll never know

what you get

it could be love

it could be hate

but mostly happiness

5. I fall for the bottle of

vodka as it gives some fear

but after the first taste

no one could ever take

it away from their lips

6. I fall for the erasers

in our pencil cases

erasing our mistakes

bit by bit leaving behind

nothing but a fresh start

7. I fall for the mirrors

you can fix it when it

is broken but the cracks

the scars the past

they will always remain

and will never the same

8. I fall for poetry

the string of words held

by a thread holding

together the combination

of fear, emotions and pain

all in one verse 

This is exactly where I'm meant to be

“The head of a company survived 9/11 because


His son started kindergarten.

Another fellow was alive because it was


His turn to bring donuts.

One woman was late because her


Alarm clock didn’t go off in time.

One was late because of being stuck on the NJ Turnpike


Because of an auto accident.

One of them


Missed his bus.

One spilled food on her clothes and had to take

Time to change.

One’s


Car wouldn’t start.

One couldn’t


Get a taxi.

The one that struck me was the man


Who put on a new pair of shoes that morning,


Took the various means to get to work but before.


He got there, he developed a blister on his foot.


He stopped at a drugstore to buy a Band-Aid.


That is why he is alive today..

Now when I am


Stuck in traffic,


Miss an elevator,


Turn back to answer a ringing telephone…


All the little things that annoy me,
I think to myself,

This is exactly where


I’m meant to be


At this very moment”
