Premium Member You Might As Well Smile
but i wouldn’t fault you words spilling from a loose connection 
i forgive the negative 
they are tied to your artistic temperament 

your heart 
translucent 
exposes wires tattered and frayed
a myriad of internal cuts and bruises

i can hold such damage
with barely a touch
soothe the gnawing...

Might As Well Have a Good Laugh
When you are in trouble
and start seeing double
you might as well have a good laugh

Cause sorrow and crying
and excessive sighing
can shorten your lifespan by half

If buried in debt
why brood in regret
when smiles are just what you need?

Don't worry or panic
no need to be manic
far better...

It Might As Well Be Spring
IT MIGHT AS WELL BE SPRING

Across the heath neath cerulean sky
All still, in brief expectant breathless pause
Impending vernal change of season nigh
Awaits fulfill of pre-condition clause

Yet bracken lace and grass a tawny match
Though warmer tint from sun that elevates
A song bird now essaying dulcet snatch
Of...

Love As Well As In Love
When you love someone, as I love you
You care for them deeply 
You want the best for them.
When you’re in love with someone, as I am with you
You cannot imagine your life without them
They make you whole.
I am in love with you,
As I hope that...

Premium Member God Forgives Abortionists For He Is One As Well
Abortionists are heroes in this Christian's book of man,
They save a fetus from a Hell that 'Christians' seem to plan!
A mother left to fend for self, with rapist's child to raise,
While many who claim Christian views, obtusely share a daze.

A bastard born of woman "has...

Love Might As Well Be a Million Miles Away
Love Might as Well be a Million Miles Away



Demented silence 
Thuds dreams to nothing
In empty hands
And desperate lips kiss
Air

Tears beguile emotion to feeling
Something
Anything
Squawking
All of it a lies distraction
From the yank and burn

Don’t look to deep
Into it

A whole life brought to the reckless tip
Says “ Believe...

Vulgar As Well As Crude
To the facts we often would allude
Not only are you vulgar but so crude;
(Also vain if you want to add that.)
What you did thought was implicit
To everyone else seemed to be illicit.

Was obscene, absurd and ridiculous
Language used completely ludicrous;
Sure looked suspicious leaving scene;
Left trail of...

Premium Member It's Gonna Happen, Might As Well Have a Laugh
Speculations abound, on the news and Internet.
Doomsday prophecies, when the planets alignments set.
But I have my theories, that I will share with you,
might as well accept it, there's nothing you can do.
Twenty-twelve is coming, that is a simple fact.
Just sit back and read along, have...

Might As Well Laugh
I know too much of tragedies
I prefer reading comedies.
They are the better part by half.
Even the gods themselves must laugh.

Look all around and you will see
reality's a tragedy.
I'll speak on comedy's behalf.
Even the gods themselves must laugh.

One thing I've learned throughout my years
laughter's better by...

May As Well Wait
If the world crumbles like everyone says it will 
and it will 
if everything we ever believed in goes downhill...

If dark sky masses loom around the bend,
if the earth stops breathing and the sky falls and the world ends:

I'm gonna run to your porch
bang on...

We Might As Well Be
I can’t wake up from this nightmare we've made
  from love, distrust and our desperate son—
    the loneliest creature; broken homemade.   
      what didn’t I do and what have you done?

 Just once recently maybe several times
 in the past You have told me that I have a, beautiful heart
 God knows the heart all its parts
 and I can see the only goodness In Me Is Him

A Night For Jesus As Well
Rudolph and Santa saw the Christmas star,
            they knew not what it was ‘til stardust fell-
snow-capped pines whisper to them from afar
           that Christmas...
