MystifiedLove is my favorite game.
I love to play along.
As silver threads weave
their way thru my soul.
Memories of futures past.
Echoing across the land.
Years started to drift on by.
Losing loved ones dropping like flies.
As the sun slips below the skies.
All I wanna do is cry.
Run away and...

The Definition of Innocence Part 2(continued from part 1)
What is innocence
that little boy
whose pulling his toy
with it’s broken wheel
Do you think he doesn’t know that the price of that crack needle
Could buy him a meal?
Do you think he doesn’t, know
that that beer bottle
Is why he bares the...

Idioms!An idiom for you
An idiom for me
It’s just an expression,
a message, you see.
Silence is golden.
Trouble comes in three.
Each to his own taste.
The powers that be.
A rock and a hard place.
Bat out of Hell.
A pig in the poke.
The day will tell.
Pedal to the metal.
Pie in the...

MollyI took a rich man’s wallet
So that we would not starve
I’m sure the lord has forgiven me
But the judge he surely did not.
He spared me from the gallows
But sent me across the sea
Away from family and friends
And away from you sweet Molly
I could see you...

Yet, have you ever seen...

An Economy To Die ForThe economy that exists today,
invites the Grim Reaper to have its way
with our minds and emotions,
even through our tenacity and devotions,
the doldrums set in, encouraging,
negative patterns of melancholia, sickness
and sin........
An economy that has forced its residents
to unleash wrath upon themselves, through
warped psyches and ill health,
People...

The Legend of BackwaterWay down south at the edge of the swamp,
Was a little town known as Backwater.
A peaceful town that most folks found,
Was a good place to raise sons and daughters.
A plague hit the town and people fell sick,
And soon they were dropping like flies.
No doc could...

It's a Crying ShameGeorge Washington would never believe it and call it a crying shame. I have observed the prohibition of prayer in public schools. Free speech is not free but is for sale to the highest bidder. Moreover, there is an attitudinal atmosphere suggesting that any speech...

Steel claws like a cat...

to bless your lucky stars
that you were born within these
borders
which increase every day their campaign
to keep others out or to send those back
whom have established families &
jobs---
some for nearly two decades.
in the same breath we...

Heaven's Waiting RoomIn our great little retirement community
They're dropping like flies around me
Need to break free, must get out this place
It's Heaven's Waiting Room you see
Don't matter if you're healthy as all get out
The grim reaper knows where you live
He's as anxious as hell to whisk you...

Where It Leads IWhere it Leads
Chaotic arrangement of words
beaten with the mind
fall into place as tetris blocks
where it leads none may know
ready to organize a show
unveil the curtains
open the window, let the breeze
carry your blind mind to see
in darkness, light light dispersing
into heavy sounds, binds your attention
seek redemption,...

Well I wouldn't have thought in the year twenty nineteen
When we'd start dropping like flies to something unseen
Will we ever know honestly where Corona started from
Sadly it's not like we can send it back to where it belongs
As the days turned into weeks and the...
