Before My Parents Come Home
Do me a
favor and get yourself
out of here before my parents come
home and catch us naked with you humping me from
behind because if they do, my dad
would really go nuts
in this room.

Trial By Firebrand: Learning can be hard
I wasn't as much taught things
as I learned from being punished
for doing them wrong the first time I even tried.

Gogyoshi Poem, Nr.11 — Wheel of Unfortune
He had a reluctant extra job
as an occasional hired assassin and she reluctantly
worked boring long hours on a production line in the local bullet factory.
They did it, honourably, to help their kids through college,
just as their own parents had done.

Parenthood
My intimate incubator, for the forthcoming foetus;
Are you too, truly feeling this dream?
I’ll become a father and you a mom.
It’s really going to happen soon.
So let’s both cut down on the drinking and stop the drugs.
Find a new way of life and overcome,
Our addictions to the illusions.
This could be a whole new beginning.
Girls just want to have fun, but I have found a woman.
I have someone who wants the commitment
And feels truly safe in,
The knowledge I’m here for her, ‘til death do us part.
This woman is...

My Purpose.
To live, is my gift.
To be, is my privilege.
To serve, is my task.
To learn, is my job.
To love, is my pleasure.
To father, is my pride.
To teach, is my honner.
To be grandfather, is my reward.
To age, is my grace.
To remember, is my joy.
To die, is my vertue.
To rot, is my final duty.
To be, is my privilege.
To serve, is my task.
To learn, is my job.
To love, is my pleasure.
To father, is my pride.
To teach, is my honner.
To be grandfather, is my reward.
To age, is my grace.
To remember, is my joy.
To die, is my vertue.
To rot, is my final duty.
