POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Poetry Is A Picture,,,Painted With Words,,,Some People Use A Brush,,,Some Use A Rock Or A Straw,,,Some People Like Their Meat Well Done,,,,And Some Like It,,,RAW ???
Arguments You Can Never Win,,,Arguments That Will Never Matter,,,
Since The Dawn Of Time,,,Man Has Argued Over These Things,,,
Should He Play With Fire,,,Should He Walk In The Rain,,,
Should He Try To Stay,,,Dry And Warm,,,
Should He Build Him A House,,,To Keep Him From Harm,,,
For These Are All The Things,,,That Mattered To Him,,,
But Then Came The 20th Century,,,So Let The Quandry Begin,,,
And Now He Has To Argue,,,Over Unimportant Things,,,
Like Can I Borrow A Cup Of Sugar,,,Or A Cup Of Detergent,,,
But None Of These Things,,,Have Ever Been As Urgent,,,
So He Invented Toilet Paper,,,To Wipe His Rear,,, ...

The Book Of Misplaced Thoughts And Sayings,,,,
1,,,The Light Exposes The Roaches In Our Souls,,,
,,,,,,,,And We Are All Infested,,,,
2,,,The Darkness Hides The Wounds,,,Inflicted Upon The Poor,,,
While The Rich Feast On Their Scabs,,,Always Demanding More,,,
3,,,I Stared at The Sun,,,Until My Eyes Eyes Burned From Their Sockets And Ran Down My Cheeks,,,And Now The Sun Is Permanently Etched Into My Mind,,,And I Am Blind,,,

Like A Peeping Tom,,,,
Sometimes I Feel,,,Just Like A Peeping Tom,,,
Watching You,,,Through A Porthole,,,
That You,,,Have Provided For Me,,,
And Since By Chance,,,I Did Glance Your Way,,,
I Have Adored You So,,,From So Far And Away,,,
And I Have Watched You Now,,,For So Many Days,,,
I Have Watched You,,,As You Laugh,,,
And I Have Watched You,,,As You Cry,,,
And I Have Seen Your Heart Get Broken,,,
By Yet Another Guy,,,
As I Have Watched,,,From This Portside View,,,
Just Like A Peeping Tom,,,Looking In On You,,,
I Have Seen You,,,At Your Highs,,,
And I Have Seen...

Seduction,,,Passion,,,and Desire,,,
Once Again I Think Of You,,,Tonight,,,
And In My Mind,,,You Seduce Me Again,,,
You Make Me Feel,,,The Passion And Desire,,,
And It's My Heart,,,That You Simply Inspire,,,
I Hear You Talking,,,Whenever I Call,,,
But It's All The Things,,,You Do Not Say,,,
That Speak To Me,,,The Loudest Of All,,,
I Need A Place,,,Where I Can Dream,,,
Where These Four Walls,,,Do Not Close In On Me,,,
And In My Dreams,,,You Entice Me So,,,
I Can Feel Your Passion,,,And The Desire To Know,,,
All The Secrets You Hide,,,Behind Those Eyes,,,

A Cold And Gloomy Day,,,
I Awoke,,,To A Cold And Gloomy Day,,,
It Seems Like A Cold Front Came Through,,,
And Brought Some Rain My Way,,,
It's Nasty Outside,,,And There Is Nothing To Do,,,
Except For Close My Eyes,,,,And To Dream Of You,,,
Your Blondish Brown Hair,,,Falls Around Your Beautiful Face,,,
And I Swear,,,There Is Never,,,A Hair Out Of Place,,,
Your Hazel Green Eyes Beckon,,,Come Unto Me,,,
For What Has Now Been,,,A Lifetime It Seems,,,
And It's Your Beautiful Smile,,,That Is Guiding Me,,,
Just As The Sun,,,That Rises In The East,,,
Then Once...

The Biggest Loser,,,
If Your Face,,,I Had Never Seen,,,
If Your Eyes,,,Had Never Met Mine,,,
Would It Matter,,,In The Scheme Of Things,,,
The Stars,,,Would Still Burn Out,,,
The Earth,,,Would Still Fade Away,,,
And IN The End,,,Time Would Still Fall,,,
Had I Never Known You,,For Even One Day,,,
That Would Make Me,,,The Biggest Loser Of All,,,
If I Had Never,,,Heard You Speak,,,
If I Had Never,,,Smelled Your Perfume,,,
If I Had Walked On By,,,On That Day,,
Never Hearing Your Voice,,,My Path Never Swayed,,,
And As The Years Went By,,,You Were Never There,,,...

Just One Moment,,,
Just One Moment,,,Before I Saw Your Face,,,
I Was Just About To Leave,,,This Place,,,
There Was Obviously Nothing Here,,,For Me To See,,,
And Then I Was Standing,,,Face To Face With You,,,
There You Stood,,,With Those Beautiful Eyes So Green,,,
And Then This Feeling,,,Came All Over Me,,,
And In That Moment,,,You Took My Heart Away,,,
I Couldn't Help But Ask You,,,To Come Out And Play,,,
You Were Wilder,,,Than My Wildest Dreams,,,
You Took Me Higher,,,Than I Have Ever Been,,,
You Took My Hand,,,And Led Me Away With You,,,
You Showed...

If I Could,,,
If I Could Write You A Love Song,,,
It Would Go A Little Something Like This,,,
It Would Start Off In The Morning,,,
With That Good Morning Kiss,,,
And I Would Sing It,,,All The Day Long,,,
And When You Returned Home,,,Come Late Afternoon,,,
I Would Be There To Greet You,,,Still Singing To You,,,
I Would Sing It To You,,,Until The Sun Went Out Of Sight,,,
And I Would Keep On Singing,,,Until Late In The Night,,,
And I Would Sing To You,,,Until The Night Turned Into Morn,,,
Then I Would Crawl In Beside You,,,All Safe And Warm,,,
If I Could Go...

In Your World,,,,
Sometimes I Wonder,,,What It's Like In Your World,,,
They Say A Picture,,,Paints A Thousand Words,,,
But Yet,,,There Is So Much More,,,
Sometimes I Think,,,I Could Stare Into Your Eyes,,,
Never Saying A Word,,,Forevermore,,,
For Behind Your Eyes,,,Is All I Need To Hear,,,
Just To Hold Your Hand,,,Just To Have You Near,,,
And Sometimes A Touch,,,Is All That You Need,,,
To Know All The Answers,,,To The Questions Un-Ask,,,
For Behind Your Eyes,,,I Can See You Un-Masked,,,
Just Looking Into Your Eyes,,,The Truth Becomes So Clear,,,

Rinse And Repeat,,,
You Look Like An Angel,,,
In Leather And Lace,,,
I Get A Glimpse Of Heaven,,,
Every Time I See Your Face,,,
And Without You Love,,,
My Life,,,Never Complete,,,
Shower Me In Your Love,,,
Then Rinse,,,And Repeat,,,
For All Eternity,,,
Just Follow The Directions,,,
Like On The Back Of Shampoo,,,
Run Your Fingers Through My Hair,,,
Do All The Things,,,That You Do,,,
And Maybe Someday,,,Somewhere,,,
To Sweep Me Off My Feet,,,
Shower Me In Your Love,,,
Never To Be Complete,,,
Until You Rinse And Repeat,,,
For All...

Chances Lost,,,
Chances Lost,,,Are Hopes That We All Share,,,
Pages Torn,,,Ripped From Our Book Of Dreams,,,
A Fantasy,,,That Awaits Us,,,Out There Some Where,,,
One Less Time,,,For The Pendulum To Swing,,,
Thousands Of Gallons,,,That Are Washed Away,,,
Underneath The Bridge,,,And Out To Sea,,,
For They Are Gone,,,And No Longer Matter To Me,,,
The Seconds,,,The Minutes,,,The Hours,,,The Days,,,
Cascading Over The Edge,,,For Everyone To See,,,
That Form The People,,,Who We Are Supposed To Be,,,
Chances Not Taken,,,Time That Was Wasted Away,,,
Words Were Never...

TRUE LOVE,,,
True Love Is Never Taking,,,
It's Never About What You Can Give,,,
True Love Is Just A Whisper,,,
That Makes You Want To Live,,,
It's Never About,,,What You Can Do For Me,,,
It's Never About,,,What You Can Bring,,,
True Love Starts With Nothing,,,
Then Gives You,,,Everything,,,
It's Never About What You Can Give,,,
True Love Is Just A Whisper,,,
That Makes You Want To Live,,,
It's Never About,,,What You Can Do For Me,,,
It's Never About,,,What You Can Bring,,,
True Love Starts With Nothing,,,
Then Gives You,,,Everything,,,
