"50 Words for Poe: Monkey Boy"
"VACANT" ... You lie your head down on a soft pillow in a grey room They say you have the Key But it’s Hell, you’ve done the work You’re not forgiven You’re not free Someone on the other side wants to lie down there is no soft pillow She’s very tired But not over easy Sunnyside Up That’s not easy Sunnyside Down could be Windows Open You see through a dream how it is for the other there is no soft pillow Open Windows Now Dream Mirror They see you in their dream Prison in a mind Doves sometimes fly free They see you Monkey Boy Dream Mirror Simeon Life ain’t easy Simeon This side or That The little one is trapped between This World and That Break Free Monkey Boy Break Free She waits for the Tooth Fairy, The Little One Mumma holds a loaded gun Whatya gonna do? Stay? Walk? Free? She waits for the Tooth Fairy, The Little One Mumma holds a loaded gun Mumma holds a loaded gun Bullets loaded Engraved: "Silver Lady" (LadyLabyrinth/2019) Dream To Be Free Xx Don’t F it up Roy This is your chance to be free Fly Free Bird Boy Fly Free (LadyLabyrinth/2019) llb/gvlm/xxxx

“ - FORGIVENESS - Liberates the soul. It removes fear. That is why it is such a powerful weapon.” Nelson Mandela LOVE "…12 Now we see but a dim reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. ...13 And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love; but the greatest of these is LOVE." Corinthians

well...there are several Simons in the good book. But next to Simon Peter, I will go with this one. Simeon existed. But in the context of my poem, it relates to the name - Simon. Simian which sounds the same as Simeon, relates to 'monkey' and in the context of my poem, fits. Take it as you will...

...that was then this is now....hell, I'm going back into the woods, they're all asleep there. It's daylight. Find myself a nice soft pile of leaves to go sleep in and dream...maybe a big wolf to cuddle up next to, hopefully no fleas. Go tell Lovejoy-Burton, I survived ...I'm onto the next mission.

You have such a wonderful way to say something and stop my brain in a halting thinking way, Lady L. " She waits for the Tooth Fairy, The Little One Mumma holds a loaded gun Whatya gonna do? Stay? Walk? Free?" Loved it!

“You know what TRUTH is? It's some crazy thing my neighbor believes. If I want to make friends with him, I ask him what he believes. He tells me, and I say, "Yeah, yeah - ain't it the "TRUTH?"”

“Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby.. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be ready to receive a ton of shit!”
