Thoughts and words should never just be the same.
Untrue thoughts, can often become your mind game.
A game where the biggest competition is only yourself.
The score is this game, will impact your mental health.
Thoughts and signs, often become a huge distraction.
Mental turmoil can cause anyone to lose some traction.
Your rational self is competing against irrational thought;
Reality and fantasy are what your consciousness fought.
Every thought is a cause, which must create an effect.
It is a phenomenon, which you must accept or reject.
What you tend to focus on, will become your reality.
Your reality is based on your experiences and vitality.
Your perspective will determine how things really appear.
Always different based on your identity or atmosphere.
Things that are just felt, will have a greater impression.
These vague ideas, leave much to one’s own discretion.
Finishing the story, we never tell ourselves we are incorrect.
Becoming irrational if our thoughts and reality don’t connect.
Eyes are the perceivers, and the mind is a projected projector.
The mind want to take control, by being the movie director.
The brain’s projected director can make you believe the script.
Is this something that is a fictional story or a true manuscript?
Answering this question will determine one’s own life direction.
Transporting you to a place or point, of some needed reflection.
Choose wisely, and never let your thoughts become your reality.
Never let untrue thoughts, stop you from your own originality.
Trust yourself, and never let the fear of striking out stop the game.
It’s okay to pick the path that was grassy and had the better claim.

THE RULES DON’T APPLY
Nick Shockney, the current CCPS Assistant Superintendent broke the law and it was covered up. This poem odd to blow the whistle on this behavior and hold him accountable for his actions, once and for all B
PERSPECTIVE AND IDENTITY
If I see a six, and you see a nine; No perspective, needs a redefine. Perspective, lies in the beholder. Each is found, above the shoulder.
FREE TO LIBERATE
Every American has the liberty to simply choose. Too many give that right up, for too many views. Your choice might not be the same, as my choice. Your choice isn’t better, making me lose my voice.
CENSORING MY VOICE
Don’t silence my voice, if it’s different than you. My opinions are many, they are not just a few. How can I stay quiet, when i was mistreated? The silent, give it permission, to be repeated.
EFFORT ITSELF
Any effort starts with the decision to just try. Effort requires energy, for us to then apply. A decision of effort, starts inside of our brain. The brain’s nueroplasticity, is what we’ll gain.
GET A GRIP ON YOUR GRUDGE
It is a hard feeling, when you hold a grudge. You can’t let go of the past, and won’t budge. All of the future is blurry because of the past. They blur together, as time has then amassed.
THE COLORS WE ALL SEE
You will always see color, and me, will just the same. Our eyesight doesn’t need adjustment, or reframe. Color is something, we all see, with some emotion. The colors we see, set our emotions, into motion.
OPEN YOUR MIND
Everyone has different beliefs, all felt in the heart. First, you have beliefs, they make you fall apart. Untrue beliefs, are confronted from the very start. Understanding your current thinking, plays a part.
PARENTS AS ARTISTS
When your child is born, they are simply a blank slate. They are but a canvas, for your artwork to demonstrate. Artwork, is not a duplication, but an opportunity for art. No formula or directions are given, right from the start.
