Part 1:  The escape plan!
========================
-=======================

After I pulled the trigger the chopper was ready!!!
It hooked me into a lariat and I flew quickly over the city.

The assassination was completed and now the just rewards.
The airports plane was refueled.  But for some reason I
only wanted more.  

I grabbed my cellular while dangling bellow the chopper in the winds.  I called the people I worked for and said "Sorry but the price has gone up still further yet....."

"I want 800 Billion in various accounts World Wide.  I want my own Island with a private military and don't even lie!!  I want plenty of weapon's sky dropped there like surface to air, rpg's grenade launchers, and enough ration's for at least 40 years!"

"I also want a secret base built there using special drilling equipment.  Where I can go into deeper hiding if need be.  The base needs to be equipped with a super computer.  And a IT staff that will keep it maintained."

"I also want look alikes of myself throughout the free world to only further confuse the ones wanting me dead.  A fleet of aircraft squadrons with bombing capabilities if all else fails these demands must be met!!!!!"

Wishful Wants, and Hopeful Needs


I'd like a car,
so I won't have to walk anymore.
I'd want a temperpedic bed,
because the mattress I have, makes my back sore.

I wish for more money,
there's a lot of things that I'd like to pay.
I'd like to win the lottery
someday.

I need to find a job,
and start living on my own.
Expenses and expenses,
life's too hard core.

I need to further my education,
in order to better myself.
Every day I need a reality check,
so I don't go way in over my head.


Needs and wants,
such touchy little things.
In which category is sex,
is it a want or a need?
Yes. Very complicated,
indeed.

We need world peace,
but that can also be a want.
We want to stop corruption,
but bribe money is needed, yet marred.

So, are you sharp enough,
to detect, and differentiate the two?
Because some times I get caught up,
and end up having not a clue.

and air pt 1

i want food, bigger boobs, the ability to only ever tell the truth,
a dinner table set for two, less burning sensation lubes
the ability to rhyme better then saying in my next line
when problems arrive always knowing what to do,


...


blue.


and air pt 2

i need food.

Part 2 Their Answer,  Sorry Pal but what you really need....

Is psychological help, maybe a 4 month vacation from the work we get you into, a nice ski trip perhaps to the middle east in one of those nice indoor resorts.  Massage therapy paid for for the next couple years.  Free movie rentals from net flicks.  A newer computer to go online and stay at home so you can relax and not be so stressed out.  A newer bed maybe a temperpedic??  Take a nice extended fishing and hunting trip pre-paid.  A nice motor home with unlimited fuel travel the country......

(Working for a secret Undisclosed Gov. Organization bent on World Manipulation does have its perks......)

I Want...His Want!


The feeling of him wanting me
his warm touch cascading all
around me
I want to be alone with him
so he can undress me
I want his love as I love him

I Need...Him To Give

I need him to communicate
his wants and needs
so his key can fit my heart
I need that moment in
between silence and thought
where I can capture all his
passion and everything else
can fade away needing only
him to give

maslow was full of shit

i don't need those things.
i don't even want them.

you can't want or need what you have,
or people
would be so satisfied

no shame in moving on to the next and the
next and the next and the next it's
human nature

no one wants to win, we all want
the next level of the game and the ascending dddjjjsssshhhriiing!
keyboard sound
that's a thing we want deep down in the kidney

that's what we call self actualisation:
1 more level to play
until god

I want
a way
out of
this confusion,
such complexities,
these doldrums,
my low-lows.
This electric infection
is ebbing my flow,
Lord knows,
it’s killing me.

I need
an adrenalin injection
soon,
a dose of reality,
a bit of simplicity,
to smell pine
below the lenticulars.
I’m not
particular,
any mountain will do.
