QUE FIT NO SERA SERA
"Que Sera Sera;” one of the lies that’s been passed down in ages
A sweet lullaby for the lazy
a lullaby that kills the will
We’re told; “Whatever will be; will be;”
but forget that what will be needs 'Will' to be
Destiny isn’t a scripted play; it’s a field
And man was gifted a tool; the name is "will"
Yet we sit; fold arms; and call it fate
as if the Most High created us to spectate
Not every dream dies because it wasn’t meant to be
Some die because someone refused to will it into being
“Que Sera Sera”; A...
A sweet lullaby for the lazy

We’re told; “Whatever will be; will be;”
but forget that what will be needs 'Will' to be
Destiny isn’t a scripted play; it’s a field
And man was gifted a tool; the name is "will"
Yet we sit; fold arms; and call it fate
as if the Most High created us to spectate

Tame Machine
I've been there tomorrow.
Footsteps echo
all through the void.
Future whispers past.
I've been there tomorrow.
Scarlet dreams
through violet hues.
Hope bends in the light.
I've been there tomorrow.
Grease-stained dreams
and crispy fries.
Future tastes like snacks.
All through the void
and crispy fries.
Footsteps echo
all through the void.
Future whispers past.
I've been there tomorrow.
Scarlet dreams
through violet hues.
Hope bends in the light.
I've been there tomorrow.
Grease-stained dreams
and crispy fries.
Future tastes like snacks.
All through the void
and crispy fries.

Gifts Of Life
Not awaken while living
To the silent breath flowing
To the mystery of hearing
To the wonder of seeing
Not awaken while living
To the divine weight of giving
To the hidden Hands us holding
To the heavenly call “Live with meaning”
Not awaken while living
To how fragile life is and fleeting
To how precious God’s many a blessing
To His Grace and Mercy we are witnessing
When deeply shaken
As life suddenly taken
Aware to be mistaken
The heart, to see would be able
How we are gently held...
To the silent breath flowing
To the mystery of hearing
To the wonder of seeing
Not awaken while living
To the divine weight of giving
To the hidden Hands us holding
To the heavenly call “Live with meaning”
Not awaken while living
To how fragile life is and fleeting
To how precious God’s many a blessing
To His Grace and Mercy we are witnessing
When deeply shaken
As life suddenly taken
Aware to be mistaken
The heart, to see would be able
How we are gently held...

ATTN DEFICIT HYPERACTIVE DISORDER (ADHD)
The boy was as quiet as a viper
Often talkative and very hyper
One thought crossed another
One topic intercepted the other.
Running…Running…Racing thoughts
Way too many to be caught.
He jumped and jived that young little boy
Who had ways of being cunning and coy!
Poor little fellow…they gave him pills
To settle him down and stay still!
“He lacks attention!”
“He needs detention!”
That’s what they thought and said
About the boy’s mind and head!
In a closet, I was found
Needing a break from all sound ...
Often talkative and very hyper
One thought crossed another
One topic intercepted the other.
Running…Running…Racing thoughts
Way too many to be caught.

“He needs detention!”
That’s what they thought and said

Stars-Beacon of hope
My tears fell in my cupped palms-
warm and glistening;
I threw them at the heavens
and they became stars...
Perhaps, every star is a tear
of someone
glimmering in the night sky,
reminding us that
in the darkest hours of despair,
our pain and fears
can turn into beacons of hope;
illuminating our paths,
guiding us,
forging us into toughened
and resilient warriors...
Reiterating with their perpetual presence
the stars symbolize
that our struggles and...
warm and glistening;
I threw them at the heavens
and they became stars...

glimmering in the night sky,
reminding us that
in the darkest hours of despair,
our pain and fears
can turn into beacons of hope;
illuminating our paths,
guiding us,

and resilient warriors...

It's all in your mind
Hope
Fuck hope
Hope is a pig
Kick it, murder it
Annihilate it
Hope for hope?
To be full of hope is to be full of shit
Hope is a weapon used against you
Hope costs money, you always pay
You're always hoping that your god hears you
Do you truly believe that?!?
It's all in your mind
Fuck hope
Hope is a pig
Kick it, murder it
Annihilate it
Hope for hope?
To be full of hope is to be full of shit
Hope is a weapon used against you
Hope costs money, you always pay
You're always hoping that your god hears you
Do you truly believe that?!?
It's all in your mind

Lasso the Sun
The rider rides
With rage and passion in his heart
Over golden hills and across the plains
Across the great breath of land
Through realms and domains
Ready
To capture the sun
His untamed spirit and will
Has no time for menial things
There is a flame to catch and a force wield
As he gallops into the distance
Willing to conquer the day
Ready
To seize the sun
He chases the fire in the sky
Without wings or propellors he flies
His horse racing against time
Leaving a plume of...

Burn anyway
Who cares if the applause fades,
if the crowd moves on?
I don’t
(but darling, keep singing.)
Death leans in the doorway,
smirking at our plans.
We won’t trick him,
but we’ll leave graffiti on his walls.
So carve your name into the bark,
let the tree grow around it.
Dance in storms that’ll become legends,
kiss like you’re inventing fire.
The trick isn’t to dodge the end
it’s to drag your fingers along the walls,
leaving streaks of color
long after you’ve turned...
if the crowd moves on?
I don’t
(but darling, keep singing.)
Death leans in the doorway,
smirking at our plans.
We won’t trick him,
but we’ll leave graffiti on his walls.
So carve your name into the bark,
let the tree grow around it.
Dance in storms that’ll become legends,
kiss like you’re inventing fire.
The trick isn’t to dodge the end
it’s to drag your fingers along the walls,
leaving streaks of color
long after you’ve turned...

It's a sad day
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ it's a sad day that there will not be a DUP no more after 5-12-2025 😔 For me I truly enjoyed my time on the site, for sure when I signed up for DUP I can say it's been great for me as it let me express my thoughts and insight and imagination for during my time on here I've meet a lot of good people's that I admired as they encourage me as they inspire me to be able to express my thoughts and talents of unspoken words ✍️ for being here was like family among friends who were writers and artists sometimes being...

Preparing my thoughts
From the deepness of my own heart ❤️ where is so much hurt and pain, from the past four years of dealing with this disease of cancer. JUST eating away at my kidney and bladder, internally that I need to live to just survive. THAT it has been affecting my mind and my own chain of my own thoughts. YET I still can hear as I remember when the kidney and bladder, doctor told me what type of treatment, I would might need to have dialysis treatment or liver replacement eventually. But yet it's the very main reason, why I still continue to stand and fight with the cancer of stages in...

No Batteries Needed
There's a light inside of me
that'll keep shining on
no matter how dark i get
let it shine...
keep the porch light on every night
in the dark shadows
in the darkest storm
when the hour stikes 12
anytime-all ways-anyhow
i will look towards the lite
i will follow that light
without darkness there is no light ♥♥♥
that'll keep shining on
no matter how dark i get
let it shine...
keep the porch light on every night
in the dark shadows
in the darkest storm
when the hour stikes 12
anytime-all ways-anyhow
i will look towards the lite
i will follow that light
without darkness there is no light ♥♥♥
