LBDs
Two little black dress hotties (known, hereafter, as LBDs)
enter the Las Vegas elevator
emitting quiet disdain of all things public
they are, of course
stunning
(one must be to be an LBD)
attendant facial expressions of boredom
like 17th in line
at the DMV boredom
who can blame them
they've never had to conquer to win
victory's no thrill when it's handed to you
there she was
a 44 year old woman
in their elevator
clad in a bad liar of a 'Slimsuit'
wrapped in a oversized towel
rivulets...

If you can't love you can't hurt
I'm so terribly bored
To the point, I have started entertaining the idea of falling in love
With who I don’t know
I was hoping to find someone
Anyone I liked, really
I wasn’t overly picky
Or so I thought
but I couldn’t find anybody
No match was ever right for me
I told myself that these things take time
You can’t force feelings to come
You can fall in love just be patient
You know u can, I lied to myself
But to no avail
No matter how much time I spared no love was ever there...

Religious Intolerance, and An Angel Named Lena
The tension was building up at home, this time with Brian, a heavy smoker who'd begun going to parties at weekends and getting drunk. He was sixteen and studying for his A'levels at the grammar school. Like Robin and I, he longed for a normal childhood. He had a number of friends in the neighbourhood, all of whom had gone to the local comprehensive. Whilst he showed exceptional talent and had no objection to studying hard at the grammar school, he disliked having to cycle to the Rabbi's house several evenings a week to study the sacred Hebrew books. For him, the memories of summer holidays...

ALTERNATIVE Explanation For The RAPTURE
People think that at the Rapture we Christians
are caught up to heaven without dying !!
When God blows "the trumpet of God"(1st Thess. 4.15-17).
Where did this idea come from (that we go to heaven without dying)??
Well Paul the apostle says,"we will NOT all sleep but we shall all be changed.."(1st Corinthians 15.51-52).
"Sleep" here refers to dying.
So Christians interpret these words to mean "we shall not all DIE.."
But there is an ENORMOUS amount of evidence that death DOES occur at the Rapture.
For we read that at the Rapture "SUDDEN...

An air of angst and ease— recycled
It's easy to breath
when you are gone
The air is crisp and clear
away, is the color
of emerald darkness
and unenviable congestion
Sunshine is at it's apex
perhaps in unspoken solidarity
truth is boldly placed
into the hands
of the wearied righteous
Feather-like,
is this air
It feels lighter ...

GLUT (6-16-2011, 8:00pm, Palm Springs, California)
i look around me here
in these five rooms
i presently call my home
and all i see
everywhere around me
inside these lifeless
geometric three d walls
is a glut of stuff
ive found
been gifted
or bought
which ive
accumulatively
acquired
over my journeys years
that deeply resonate
with me
naturally
mystically
aesthetically
emotionally
psychologically ...

Catfish
So this is you."
Silence fills the air and he just stares at her Defiance in his eyes
As if already accusing
Without uttering a word
This was necessary
He wanted to be treated like a cripple
He wanted her to get disgusted
Wanted her to get angry
Feel deceived so
He could point out her shallow
Expectations of who she spoke to online
She did none of these things
Only peered into him under her false glass...

Eternal Night
I stare at the wall
I look at the clock
I try to move on
I give it all I got
Is there a chance for me to be
A chance for me to fight
Light will rise
Let's end this eternal night
This life is hard
To find a home
To be a man
You feel all alone
You travel the desert
Searching for that gold
Trying to remember
And get your story told
I stare at the wall

Hey past life
Hey past life
We haven't spoken in a long while
I hope everything is alright
I'm doing way better than I expected on this side
Sorry for the silence
I've been distracted by the beauty of everything I've denied
The grass isn't greener on this side
But in two hundred and so days I haven't thought about ending my life
Believe me, I've learnt to break the ice
I have cracked my shell and got a new lease on life
I haven't forgotten about you and I
But I think in past is where you now belong
I can assure you, I...

Being you
Your altitude determines your attitude and sometimes smiling wins more friends than frowning and whatever the mind can conceive and believe it can achieve and sometimes too our bad or good situations can be changed if we first changed ourselves, and to change ourselves effectively we first had to change our perceptions. But sometimes the greater the change the more difficult our challenges become. sometimes listening rather than talking much is very important because listening involves patience, openness and the desire to understand.
sometimes I derive a great sense of worth...
