85TH BIRTHDAY –
Journal IX

Nostalgia figures no
time span
An event of many,
many years seems no
more
      than a few
Looking out on the
world with the same
eyes
Memory is tricked
Ah yes that, but
wishfulness too

Events      colors
take on a magical
gleam
The mind-body
frolics with actions

The question is not how many things we need in life to live
 
But

How many things are there that we are willing to live without?

The muse of a dreamy gaze,
The memory of a mutual moment,
Heightened affection and excitement, 
An intake of breath for more

The expansion of the stars
In a stretch of sky above the world,
Glimmering gently—
Affecting profoundly

A tree that casts the wanting shade
That forms its body in the day
For...

Don is the ultimate user
His deals seal you as a loser 
When Trump holds the cards
The lives now in shards
Bear witness he’s an abuser

The Don has a trick to reveal
He’ll dick you and cancel your deal
Like hands on your neck
Trump voids your paycheck
And feels ecstasy...

That color vileness painted on my face
When coming back my duke to me I saw 
His new squeezing inside much more took place.

He heedful stopped as man hearing to draw;
Because his eye could not reach much far more
Through the black air and too for the...

I need a page break
If you keep reading you’re about to catch bird flu
It’s changing seasons all around you
Sit back the words are causing your body to react
You feel like a woman going through menopause
Cold to hot
Pause for a moment
Did I ask for your opinion?
Wait!...

Unquotable quotes – IX

You cannot have your cake and eat it, but you can have 
        your meat and beat it.

I walk beneath you, anticipated hands held tight,
I wanna be with you, quench my thirst tonight.

In the sunshine I seek comfort from your rays,
Shining without an end, as your tenderness I crave.

Through out humanity there is but one desire,
To bring you...

Joy to the world the king has come
The ground his feet set upon becomes holy and mighty
Peace to the world his hands make the waters still
And his words, calm the wildest storms
Hope to the world, death is no more the final boundary
The curtain is torn...

Cumander-in-Chief Father Trump
Will frack you and leave you a dump
For riches like oil
The Earth he'll despoil
While searching for what's next to hump


Author's note: The "anti-christ" has got my attention. Perhaps this is just a bad joke, and it's not limited to one religion....

IF YOU PULL A LONG FACE : IX

IF you pull a long face
Being born with a long face bytheway
Then you have at worst a problem face
None will know if you're sad or gay

Now if you keep pulling this long face
Mostly at the dinner table, say
Most...

Predatory; fiction and fantasy became in essence the reality for most?!

In regards unto the realms of life beyound which in turn birthed

The fowlers net to ensnare amid these illusions and delusions....

Mass hypnosis, within subconscious' collective minds; webs of plights

Self-destruction paving this path atop the page...
