Premium Member Mystic Moments

Early start
East Coast Ferry Terminal;
Sleepy journey


Trip for two
Getaway spa resort;
Rest and recuperate


Mystic moments:
Retreat into void --
Battery recharging


To re-jig sense
Spur sensorial feel;
Find and anchor


Getaway mode
Three days of rest;
Tropical idyll


Sing a song
Joy floods again;
Refresh soiled templates


Doing nothing
Can heal you wholesome;
Empty cups need refill


So there you go:
Two lovers
Playing catchup


Take your trip,
Embrace emptiness;
Rest weary wiles


Here by this bench
Watch people passing;
Wit humours worry


Driver's hot seat:
Fast luxury car
Speeding away


Now for a pit stop
Mechanics of motion;
Preventive maintenance


Bus trip homewards
Observe fellow passengers;
Flashy mobile devices


We flood the bus
Private thoughts lurk;
Ready to unleash


Air-con bus ride
Morning masquerade;
Chameleons in-transit


Glare of morning
Sun in my eyes;
Drowsy dreamy crazy


Missing the point
Stray words dislodge;
Meaning decapitated


Drowsy movement
Blurry sensations;
Graveyard shift starts


Report and lodge
Complaint that cuts;
Fire a loose cannon 


Moody mindset
Uneasy dawn;
Distant tremors


Exit the start
Enter the end;
Roundabout lurks


Highway song
Go fast within limits;
Speedy Gonzales!


Follow the signs:
Deliver me
From my slavery


Illumination saves
Ignorance and blame;
Choice rewards freedom


Morning story
Sleep put on hold;
Awareness now grooms

This Looney Toons Life

Somedays I feel like a female
Bugs Bunny, 
saying "whats up doc" while
confident and cool,
while other days more like a
girl Daffy Duck, 
feeling more like a tongue twisting fool,
while out shopping I feel like
an Elmer Fay Fudd,
almost always on the hunt, 
looking and hunting for bargains,
hopefully finding them before anyone else does,
while most times at work while on production,
we have to be like a Speedy Gonzales,
or pretending to be like a Road Runner,
all the while imagine being chased,
by a Wile E. Coyote behind us,
and after all the production running,
we smell similar to a Pepe LePew,
because everyone's armpits,
need to be thoroughly perfumed,
then sometimes when I am driving,
and someone cuts me off,
I feel like a Yosemite Sam,
because even though I'm not short,
I feel short tempered and cross,
and when I'm off on the weekends,
I cannot tell a fib,
I like to overindulge,
and eat like a Porky Pig,
well, there you have it,
guess that all she wrote,
so good-bye for now, and
a bleep, bleep, bleep, bleep
thats all folks!

Premium Member Just Like Speedy Gonzales

Running as fast as I can, I am
But I can't keep up with myself
Just like Speedy Gonzales
My mind has really gone south

Must be something I can take no doubt
To slow the damn process down
Might end up in the loony bin
Or the clown of my old home town

Could be something I ate methinks
Known to try different stuff
Saw our Golden enjoying some plants
Weeds and dandelion puffs

So think I'll give it a shot my friends
My libido will likely speed up
I'll feel like a twenty year old again
Run around with all the young pups

Running as fast as I can, I am
But I can't keep up with myself
Better slow down I ain't young no more
Must take care of my health

The Red Flops

The Red Flops
 
Its baseball time in Boston Town
 Sure hope the team won t let us down
 Gonzales, Papi and Bobby V.
 Will surely a pennant bring.
 
But oh no the season came
 And all our players came up lame.
 Bailey never threw a pitch
 Followed soon by Youkilis
 
On the Disabled List went Jacoby
 So they brought in a guy named Cody
 needed another infield arm
 So they looked down to the farm.
 
No Paw Sox were ready yet
 Especially not Inglesias
 so they traded and got Avilla
 Started as a home run killer
 
Faded quick tho he didn t last
 So Cody picked up the slack
 Dustin fielded like an all star
 His bats power well not so far.
 
Papi now can hit to right
 High average and his home run might
 But poor Alex can t hit his weight
 All his hits stay inside the gates.
 
Still no Carl in center field
 really good 147 million dollar deal.
 No more Tek behind the plate
 A guy named Salty can t hit his weight.
 
Beckett, Lester and Bucholtz
 Our starting pitching aces trio.
 Have ERA's of almost seventeen
 My mother could outpitch those three.
 
Three cheers to the new guy Middlebrooks
 Home run power, decent looks
 Marlyn Byrd was a former Padre
 Has hit a few and earned his way.
 
Still the season is very young
 only 26 games are gone
 Sox only 7.5 games out.
 Still time to bring the team around.
 
Lets hope the Sox ownership team
 Wants to count wins and not pennies
 Bring the team talent that they need
 To win one more Beantown World Series.

Lickety Split

Like Speedy Gonzales
Instead of walking through life.. he is
Causing havoc with his racing around.
Knocking everything to the ground.
Each one of us have done this
Trying to be top of whatever we do
Yet we don’t realise, we are hurting you

Slow down my friends ..love life 
Perceive nature, don’t cause yourself strife
Look at the flowers… the fields the clouds in the sky
Instead of closing your eyes and rushing by
Time waits for no man take pleasure in yours

The Day I Took Her Voodoo Away (True Story) Part 2

By sending, "The Old Witch" a Bible,I knew I would get a reaction
Deep down inside, she knew that God's word would bring her down
She called all her demons to get me
My elimination, was the only thing that would bring her satisfaction
She called the El Paso Police, she controls the law in El Paso town
"Throw him in jail and throw away the key"

In a cafe eating lunch, the parking lot filled with police cars
I knew that I was the target, I had to stay calm
With gun drawn, six surrounded me
I knew that I would be behind bars
"Like throwing water on a witch", she thought it was a bomb
But in his way, God would set me free

In shackles and chains, they took me to a cell
Had a Kangaroo court, set for my demise
Judge Alex Gonzales said, "This is a serious offense"
Got six months, she was happy I was in her living Hell
But I knew that it was not a crime in God's eyes
This insanity, made no common sense

When I got to jail, I got a Bible to read
Set me at ease, made the time go fast
I knew  that it was the one thing that would se3t me free
And his word were the strength that I would need
No matter how evil the spell she had cast
Criminals to them we all are, Jesus was with me

To the Family That I Left Behind.

My family I know you miss me 
But I am alright.

Since I will always be their 
And be by your side. 

To my little daughter Regan 
Words cannot say. 

How much I miss you
But I will be home some day. 

I know you miss me 
But please do not cry. 

The lord says we will be together 
And I know he is right.

Crystal I miss you 
And my love will be the same. 

I am in heaven 
Where we will be a family again one day. 

Mom and Dad I miss you 
 Please do not worry. 

I am in heaven, 
Which is filled with nothing but glory.

Thank you for being there 
With me in the night. 


For the times I laughed 
And even the times I cried.

I am glad you are my parents 
And I am glad that will never change. 

I can’t wait to see you 
So you can see how I have changed.

But I will always be the baby boy
  That you will remember till this day.

My brother and sister I thank 
For showing me the way. 


Thanks to you I grew up a great man
 That will be able help people each and every day.

I will never forget any of you 
Just remember that every day.

To all of the students 
That I left behind. 

There is a place for you in my heart 
And you will always me on my mind. 

I will be coaching all of you again one day 
And all the coaches will be the same.

I will always love you 
Since you were what helped me each and ever day.

To all the coaches 
Thank for taking me fishing. 

And staying out all night long
When all of you would stand by my side. 

I will never forget 
What we would talk about.

Since it was about football
  All night all-long. 

I am glad I got to know all of you
 In each and every way.

And thank you for letting me join the family 
That I still love today.

I will never forget how you accepted me 
And remember god loves you day. 

Thank you also for getting a new coach 
So he can help all the kids in all ways.

I hate that I left that tragic day 
But I am here to say. 

All of you will be in heaven 
With me that one fate full day.

Restless Heart

" My love grows inherently restless in your absence, where many are the days that try to reconcile from the torn pages of time, a broken heart condemned to endure the fire of every age, leaving nothing more than the ash of an unfulfilled life, that goes without what it desperately needs, to just feel wanted. "

Era

" The tears of an Era have since faded to dry stone, shaped by the forced hand that has long since confused chaos as peace, whose only testament can be found left inscribed on the fragility of each granite slab, where many finally rest. "

What's the Use of Envy

taken with envy
the soft petals of a rose
holds itself a hedge 
where its complimenting thorns
remain embraced in flawed hands

Leaflet

" It's a short venture into the golden fields,
where blank leaflets remain unpressed by the teacher of its province, the sole architect of conception that remains transfixed upon the gossamer harvest, that binds its influence in the tethering of its being. "

Cheater

Cheater 

You said  you loved  me 
But I don’t know why?

You like to play games 
But you’re messing with my mind!

You come crying asking me to hold you. 
But hell I don’t know why?

Since every time I see you 
You holding a different guy.

You say I love you 
But I don’t know why?

You’ll always be the same but 
Please please stop messing with my mind!

My God and Your God

Abdul, Moshe, Patrick and John
Listen real close before its all gone
Akiro, Singh, Gonzales, and Lee
Listen real close listen to me

My God and your God is one and the same
Even though he sends different thoughts to our brain
You know thats really not our affair
As long as we all know he's really there

He's far to complex for us to comprehend
However thats no excuse why we can't be friend
I can tell you this without fear of an error
We can all love him fine  because he is fair

It's my job to worry greatly about me
I must leave his work to he who all sees
Into my heart I must constantly peek
To insure darkness of evil doesn't insidiously leak

It's not our job to judge or condemn
We are meant to love and be true to him
So to you I wish a glorious day
May we all get along as we go on our way

So being our God is one and the same
Don't you think we should start using our brain
We should stop being mean and infliciting such pain
Befor on us his hellfire does rain

We act like we ain't got common sense
For that kind of behavior there ain't no defense
He looks down upon us shaking his head
Says you better get it right before you are dead

Reflect on his message, it's peace and goodwill
Then we cn be friends and know his love with a thrill
I look forward to that kind of a life
I truly believe we can stop all this strife

So the next time you stop for you to pray 
Remeber these words to you I do say
I don't know you well but it would be swell
And I tell you I love you to stay out of hell

Being our God is one and the same
Don't you think we should start using our brain
Being our God is one and the same
Don't you think we should start using our brain

My Grandpa

I lost a partner in crime,
But I'll see him again further in time.
He was the defenition of a man,
Always willing to lend a hand.
He had some special way,
Of brightening up even the darkest days.
He had the biggest smile with the best heart,
And he had been there for me from the start.
He took me under his wings,
And along the way taught me so many things.
He taught me how to throw a ball,
And to always get up after a fall.
He taught me to stay strong and fight till the end,
He was more then my grandpa, he was more then my friend.
He was a solider in more ways then one,
He taught me to take responibility and never to run.
He will forever live on in the rest of us,
This amazing man was Jerry Gonzales.
