which arrangement to Maurice silly revel 

from afar, viz pomp and circumstances quite
emotional, ah...I can feel exuberance

After I had gone on many hikes
Ended up with these three Mikes
Meant to be,
Great all three,
Who I do know everyone likes.

Who I do have a Hoopy Do Review.

All you need is apply a little faith.

I looked into the mirror and this is what I saw
Overweight, bloated and extremely out of shape
Put me in a purple shirt
And I'd look just like a grape

Honest
Be honest with your feelings
They should not be neglected
If you deny truth to yourself
Won’t your spirit be affected?
Be real, do not put up a front
Pride should not be a factor
Neither should shame, not even fear
Let virtue be your inspector
Find out...Read More

Hurricane by any name is a dreaded beast
Monster winds guide every turn and twist

Clouds cluster in enormous darker shapes
Heated moisture dominates form they take 

Dressed in cloudy eye-wall winds rotate
High gusting speeds foretell its arrival date

As eye of the storm...Read More

dressed
in
chiffon
hair a bun
with couple loose strands
solitaire around her slim neck
for Anniversary dinner at their seafood place
lost in a concoction of his adoring gaze, music, Merlot and blackened salmon

her knees buckle down
mascara runs down in rivers

Its amazing how weeks fly by
When your doing nothing worth while
and all there is to do is sit around and think
Yet it seems like I am forever stuck on the brink
Of a epiphany? Or maybe its madness
My youth is fleeting...Read More

Clouds of darkness, roar of fear -

To whom does he smile at
With a tip-top approbation of doggedness
Neglecting the pleasure of the period?

To whom does he cheer
With a reverberating extant sound?
Nobody but he who buckles down

It used to be that many dreamed.
At least that is the way it seemed.
But that was more than a few years ago now.
A good life in which we all starred;
a house with fence around the yard:
The dream which the hard-working...Read More

BOUND

We’re bound from birth, our path too clear
Conformity reigns, we dare to veer
Play it straight and fall in place
Buckle down, you’ll win the race

Need for expression, no need for that
Everyone needs to wear the same hat
Wander off course or stray...Read More

subtle scare tactic of 
western capitalism,
the slip of paper in the mail,
the email directed at you & you
alone,
the collection agency phone call---
it all comes down to frightening &
keeping one at bay,
drilling it into your head that
debt is the path you’ve...Read More

What is Life?
Why is it so cruel,
Yet so kind to us?
What is the meaning of Life?
And why is there Life?

Life throws many curves at us,
Both expected and unexpected.
How do you handle
All of Life’s curves?
Do you buckle down or stand strong?

 An education is what I seek
Further knowledge to be found
 In my quest I will not be meek.

Lack of love
Has really got me thinking
I soothe my sexual cravings
By resorting to drinking
Water, Smirnoff
Hurricane and ever clear
The sexual craving
Within my conscience will never clear
Always will be fogged up
Clogged up I my mind
Drawback symptoms from a choice
Of leaving that life...Read More
