Premium Member Tick Tock
Tick tock, tick tock, the sound of the clock
A constant reminder that time never stops
There must be something that can be done
To slow down the time, how quickly it runs
From seconds to minutes to hours then days
Calendars form an unsolvable maze

Tick tock tick tock, ...

Why People Why
Why people why




About so many things I want to let fly,

Political correctness is like a stick in my eye.

Capitalism and greed over helping others, WHY ?

State sanctioned murder, yeah let the innocent fry.


Apathetic laziness, will lead to obesity,

Get moving people, it’s hard but it works...

Premium Member Reality Check
You were placed on the planet 
to write rhymes
but to many times 
people tried to fit you
in between their lines  
Their prefect pairings
not caring or wanting to be fair or kind
They couldn’t possibly see you
They were bonafide blind
not understanding you
unable to peek into your...

CHALLENGES

By Edmund Siejka

He faced a challenge 
That forced him to use all his abilities
But doubt clouded his judgement
Caution gave way to uncertainty.
Needing help
He recalled these words:

1.	Believe in yourself
              Never bend your head

Premium Member Move On From the Past
Thoughts of the past, pounding at my mind’s door,
As thoughts keep pounding, my mind says no more!
Thoughts of the future, now enter my head,
My heart and mind choose future thoughts instead.

Change seems challenging, though it is natural,
We can’t stop change, certainly seems factual.
No moving own...

Cleaning out my closet a chore this is sure to be.  A day at best to dig through this stuff packed and stacked to the ceiling.  Now, where to start and what to keep! Might as well start here at...

Mountaineering In the Spring
I have never climbed a mountain
or have I wanted to climb one, 
to be perfectly honest.

I have watched others climb
I watched ten men climb a mountain 
named K2, 

strange name it seemed to me -K2.
One of these climbers died,
It was on TV –Discovery Channel.

I sit...

The Christmas Train
It was Christmas Eve, a Thursday
On the Northern Express Christmas Train
We were on our way north through the wilds
And our  destination was to be old Hornepayne

One hundred and eighty two people
Three kittens, one goat and nine dogs
Were riding up north on the railroad
Oh, I...

What makes us sluggish, unable to get moving

It's something to do with low pressure

Known to cause problems in migraine sufferers

Unavoidable, can't change the weather

Happily I can say I'm not one of those sufferers

But I sure can sympathize, my friends

Other than a few minor muscle aches...

Pallets, Jacks, and the Soft Sounds of the 70's

My Summer Summed Up Summarily for a Small Sum
A constant beeping chirp echoes through the warehouse, strangely comforting the workers who walk these aisles and habitually straighten shelves and relocate displays like worker ants with no aim,...

Spring Garden
I can feel spring is in the air today.
I hear my garden remonstrating me.
Please come out here and clear these leaves away.
Bulbs are beginning to bud, come and see. 
Rose bushes need pruned, the trestle is falling.
"Wake up! Get moving!" the garden's calling....

Time To Go
You must start moving
Get down off this hill
Maybe you should start proving
You are not intellectually ill.

This is no place to stay
It’s spooky at midnight
You must find a way
To get us out of this night.

The Zombies are gathering
The Ghouls begin to drool.
The Ghosts’ slime is lathering
The...

Another Day In the Mine
ANOTHER DAY IN THE MINE
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS
	


I woke up this morning with a pain in my back
From a cold wind blowing in through a crack
I sleep with my little brother and he hogs the blankets
What to do in winter when the temperature plummets

We all live...

'the Voice In My Head'
I could not tell what it was
From a distance, it looked to be some sort of bug
As it inched towards me
It magnified in size
Thinking I was high,
I went to rub my eyes
And it got bigger than a ship
This was unusual and quite terrifying
I knew I...
