Be aware, look out!
A job worth doing is a job worth doing well, so they say
Efficiency and frugality are virtues at any age
You work hard for the boss
You play ball for the coach
Pull for the team
Be true to your school
Keep your eyes and ears open and your mouth shut
Look out for number one
Be strong
Strive for perfection in everything you do
People who do what they are told can be the most terrifying
Be one step ahead of your "friends" and surroundings
Look out!
Efficiency and frugality are virtues at any age
You work hard for the boss
You play ball for the coach
Pull for the team
Be true to your school
Keep your eyes and ears open and your mouth shut

Strive for perfection in everything you do
People who do what they are told can be the most terrifying
Be one step ahead of your "friends" and surroundings
Look out!

Witness To Truth
Memories are what I have left
Simpler times so it seemed
Every night was pure chaos
While days were growing difficult
Spent most the time drinking
The other half I was sleeping
Somewhere between them both
Were little sparks of brilliance
Sober moments I had a few
Finding confusion at the root
It wasn’t a feeling I desired
Being alone with only myself
Always locked in my head
Chained to illusions of hope
But when I reached outward
Reality pulled me back down
Suffocating on false promises ...
Simpler times so it seemed
Every night was pure chaos
While days were growing difficult
Spent most the time drinking
The other half I was sleeping
Somewhere between them both
Were little sparks of brilliance
Sober moments I had a few
Finding confusion at the root
It wasn’t a feeling I desired
Being alone with only myself
Always locked in my head
Chained to illusions of hope
But when I reached outward
Reality pulled me back down
Suffocating on false promises ...

PLEASE, NO MORE GAMES
REALITY
When we were kids
it was natural, part
of growing up to
play games. We
were shy and fearful
to explore the forbidden.
BUT
now as mature adults,
age-wise, it's time
to stop playing games
unless we agree to
being game players.
WE BOTH know what
we want but we
tease, play games,
divert to another subject.
Our loins say yes but
our coyness says no.
WE ache and imagine
how it would be if
we dared to come out
and say YES, YES, oh YES!
Meet me at the Kissing
Place and...

soul
discretion divine in my hallowed halls
sanctuary of heart interpretated
secreting away my soul
lest anyone see how soft I am
my heart alters according to my need
with prayers rising to heaven
grieving inward with despair
silently uttering my cares
please watch over my family
down on my knees I give thanks
grateful for fraility, grateful for sin
the knowledge recieved, is hard born
wisdom immortal, mine
sanctity of feeling within
my sacredness understood
with great care, I observe
learning...

When we are shifting energy
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ what do you believe within your own thoughts and insight and imagination. For do you wish to make your life better than it's ever been, for do you have the ability and power to eliminate the negativity, and replace it with positivity. For sure we all have the ability to manifest that which we pray for in our lives and dreams. For do you believe in your dreams with a want and need, to sustain your own wishes for do you have the perseverance, to meet the challenges that will elevate you to your true spiritual potential. For do you...

One walk three thoughts.
One:
A gentleman will hold your hand and pull out your chair.
A mans man will pull on your hair while entering you from behind.
A real man will do both.
Which one are you?
Two:
Killing yourself won't bring you peace, just an end to your suffering.You can't find peace when your dead....only when your living.
Three:
The more you resist pain the more you'll suffer.
Do the math.
PxR=S ( pain x resistance = suffering)
If your pain is a 10 and your resistance is a 10 then your suffering will be a 100.
If your pain is a 10 and...

New York City ..Wear Black
On the Q train this morning
Taking note
Everyone wearing some black
I'm in all Black
Head to toe
Pretty common
A word of warning
You should wear black
If you don't
You're seen as a tourist
Could get you mugged
Or worse

A "CRONE"?
You see a "crone" -
near skin-and-bone,
whose face well-lined
is age-defined,
hair silver-grey
many-a-day
longer than I
try to deny,
hands more like claws.
Post-menopause
the "spring chicken"
is now "old hen",
with cackling voice
and curses choice,
who's swapped lipstick
for the broomstick...
.
Folk stay away,
not to me stray
as once they might
when lads' delight
and candidate
for bridal mate.
You pass in blink,
but stop...

Life's Ride
How many hungering heartbeats
until your life has flown bye?
The ecstatic events are just
a flash in time.
And the painful days
compose an immortal rhyme.
Let me ask you.
Did you take life's ride?
Don't lie.
In defiance of gravity,
to fill your cavity,
and feel acutely alive.
In the heat of my mind,
memories swelter.
Begging for the heart's tender shelter.
Destiny's fragments fall from a starry sky
Learn to live without the stalking question why.
Your evolution wants a surprise.
until your life has flown bye?
The ecstatic events are just
a flash in time.
And the painful days
compose an immortal rhyme.
Let me ask you.
Did you take life's ride?
Don't lie.
In defiance of gravity,
to fill your cavity,
and feel acutely alive.
In the heat of my mind,
memories swelter.
Begging for the heart's tender shelter.
Destiny's fragments fall from a starry sky
Learn to live without the stalking question why.
Your evolution wants a surprise.

Truth
You don't need friends and family.
You just want them.
A child actually needs you.
You just want them.
A child actually needs you.
