Best Step On It Poems
LoveLove can be a beautiful thing
It can ensnare your senses
Confuse you as to which way is up
It can make you do stupid things,
Dangerous things
If you get far enough into it can control you
Make you do things you wouldn’t normally do
Love is the best feeling in...

Jimmy Carter 5JIMMY CARTER
There's so many shortages
we don't know what to do
we're outa gas and coffee beans
and outa money, too.
The congress hasn't been much help
and peanuts just won't do,
so Jimmy please be good for us,
and we'll be good for you!
Well my car's a little bit

Word: Pinwheel
As the world goes round, continuing to spin as we humans walk,
And now that I realize it, I’m stepping along with the Earth too.
Nervously but eagerly, I march along through time, wondering
Where this dirty road will take...

Public ToiletYou may use this toilet, but please do not spoil it,
Quit being mean by keeping it clean.
Flush it with water, not with what’s meant to drink,
If you care for others you won’t let it stink,
Ensure your aim is always true,
Use the...

The StenchI woke up this morning with courage over my back and wisdom in my hat
I was determined to put an end to the sneaky kangaroo rats
No one had done me anything but I was reeling from within
I was carrying someone else’s weight and I felt...

My Bones Will Finally Get Their CloakMemories are walls
desecrated by graffiti of remembrance
well intentioned people
all around
and me
playing that „warm rabbit“ game
(take a guess who the rabbit is)
it feels like I'm one of those happy faces on Kerouac's road
I feel like an idiot
it has to feel like that when you...

ScorpionWhen I was very young
I heard a story of a princess
She was someone
That enjoyed pain of others
She was beautiful and powerful
She had many knights
Whishing her hand in marriage
But she did not care for any of them
Her expression was cold as stone
And her heart...

My Cloud As Wide As a Field By Reynaldo L MastI tend to my field by myself; no one knows how well I do this
This is my cloud that I harvest all my feelings and I am King
So what demands you have or think you have on my cloud?
My cloud is other than my safe...

Dramatic Verse
Last KissImagine a lovely garden, tea for two, and this story.
I wasn't always bitter like this, I've had my fair share of glory.
In my youth I was an all-state football player with a lot of friends.
But you know life was going too good, and we all...

My Prayer So FarNowadays I have a different prayer:
Don't keep me from trouble,
Teach me how to walk through trouble.
Don't lift me up to the sky,
Give me wings so I can fly,
When they want to bury me,
Don't get me out of the pit,
Help me shake the dust and step...

Restless MindThis longing I have, this desire so true
Yet an empty pit that gnaws and grows
My love, my pain, my light, my fire
I have not much but my soul to give
Vulnerable, desperate, frustrated, pleading;
Turning, rolling, tumbling, screaming
Even in sleep I cannot escape the truth
That pushes me...

Sheer PanicI love beading, I love making gifts and jewelry to sell. I had a project in progress, beading a bracelet, but I ran out of thread a few thousand times and in the process of cutting another piece, mislaid my needle;
Alarmed, frantically searching,
I had...

Something Has Got To Change...Something has got to change...
snap out of your foolish rage;
be honest with yourself,
and say," I don't want to be yours! "
Not long ago,
you adored me
like there's was
no other man on earth;
a moment ago,
you refused to be touched;
and while I'm playing your song,
you look away......

Ugh . . . PooI once had a butler so dapper
He had but a slight stutter
On the grounds we once walked
To find treasure of sorts
Wh.. wh.. he stuttered
I know I countered
Then why'd you step on it
He questioned...

She's Like Bubble GumShe's like bubble gum
I take her out of the wrapper
Put her in my mouth
Chomp down
It taste good at first
There's no denying that
The taste is wonderful
It's sugary and sweet
There's new touches of sweetness that I can savor
I swoosh it around in my mouth
I blow a big...
