Premium Member 'that Missing Link'
One day after years of searching
for that missing link 
he came along, without warning 
he meddled with the barricades 
I build... 

The things I used to protect myself, 
fragile me, all exposed 
and yet 
the steps we took healed us both... 

Not realizing that every...

Missing Link
Another Dawn light awakens me 
to face another day
To live my life and learn from it
in every single way
The children hold tomorrow 
in hopes & dreams & tears
The world depends on children
to overcome its fears
Although we want to hide away 
tomorrow may not come
And anything...

Premium Member Missing Link In the Food Chain
All around us
It’s an epidemic
Man-induced plague

It’s a conspiracy
To hook people
To non food foods
Eats that should be
Technically inedible

Anything to grease the wheel
Of factories and consumerism
Nothing grown naturally
Nothing from a farm
Heavens no

Promoting foods whipped up
From powders and chemicals
None of those
Vegetables or fruits
Or other live stuff

Let the population...

Missing 'Link'
I first met him in July, seventeen years later
I was shocked to see how much he looked like his maternal uncle
So nothing like me except, maybe, the eyes...yeah, the eyes
"Hi, Alex, I'm Jim." We shook hands and I pulled him into an "ambush" hug
"You can...

As I reflect what do I remember? 
A random meeting in November 
when our lives collided. 

As we began our story 
the plot was heady, physical, 
but our spirits never met. 

They never did - in all that time, 
they never did, did they? 
We...

The Missing Link
Mfs speak the same story.
Trophey kids right?
We settle for the same glory.
Statistics growing up.
We've never seen the same jury.
But no father growing up.
Excuses be the same cornies.
Living life asking why he didn't want us.
Way before Fresh Prince even played a part among us.
But as a...

The Missing Link
The suburban forest
of dust and fumes
unique species of zombies
in endless love
with their follies...

I often have trouble with the drink
It seems to be harder than you think
With alcohol it’s all over
I’m the one that’s sober
I’ve come out to be the missing link

A nap is a very good thing, I think
Better to nap than to take a drink,
Or stand in front of a kitchen sink
Filled with dirty dishes to the brink,
Some of them beginning to stink,
Others are turning a strange pink
I think I’ve found the missing link!

My Missing Link
My Missing Link

After waking up I did start to think
Maybe the Lord is my missing link
Who I forgot about and had ignored
With Him should strike up a chord.

If the Lord and I were on same track
And nothing would I ever have to lack
Found out that...

If no one will, who will? 
Share joy don’t hesitate! 
A smile can do so much;
Give out ten thousand hugs;
You can soothe with a touch;

If no one will, who will? 
Been helped? Pay it forward;
Look out for each other;
Pour when your cup is full,
kindness is...

Missing Link
Spasmodic I have arisen from my slumber,
With the sun’s semblance upon my skin.
Flustered by an unusual sensation,
My eyes spot removed dust.
My heart pounding,
My soul grieving,
Forbidden for anybody to touch,
My immobilizing being drops to no end.
My God-given determination
Has dispersed, leaving an
Empty shell to follow its fate.
Blue...

Premium Member Chain Migration
Lo, the Missing Link has been found
Caught by the Net, he is fast bound.
Seeking to keep his privacy
He lost it to trade piracy.
As partners share nation to nation,
Identity goes on chain migration....
