sugar booWe’re frantically typing to finish our assignments
and end our Friday night homework confinement.
Chella wants to go to a frat-house soirée
I went to a few of those back in the day.
No more frat parties, I once emphatically said.
I make rules for myself, usually based on emotion
but once I calm down, rules are made to be broken,
and...

Lesser miles to goLesser miles to go by Adejola Joseph
Lesser miles to go
Lost and lonely
Bewildered and perplexed
The city's got everybody busy
Palm on my cheek
Pondering what next?
The journey seems far
The task's pretty arduous and burdensome
Where do we go?
What do we do?
With thin eyes I see the future
And I know all we have is... lesser miles to go
Weary and troublesome
We...

Adore YouThe sun shining so bright and the sky so blue,
There isn’t a day where I don’t adore you.
Once in a deep dark mental place,
You came outta nowhere my saving grace.
You brought my mind back to happy times,
Positive and love, it should be a crime.
I never thought I’d ever be this way again,
But here I am...

WHAT HURTS THE MOSTI don’t feel anything anymore,
I thought having you in my hands was all.
I thought I’d be the one you adored—
But I couldn’t see through the rising walls.
You gave me the key, you opened the door,
But I was blind to the cracks in the floor.
I saw forever in your smile,
Not knowing forever was just a while.
You...

Child of LightSmall hands, reaching for a sun,
That hides behind a world undone.
Child of light, with eyes so bright,
Now dimmed by shadows of the night.
A tiny seed of hope remains,
Through bitter winds and pouring rains.
A fragile bloom, it struggles on,
A silent plea, before it's gone.
Remember now, this tender face,
Lost in a world, devoid of grace.
Protect the flame,...

How to MasturbateApply the Johnsons baby oil all over your fingers.
Insert your index finger on the top of your lip.
Slowly move your hands around, breathe in and breathe out.
Stick two fingers inside the magic hole,
be gentle, don’t rush.
Squirt, let it out, the water is precious
to all who desire it.
Gently, use the...

When Hell is FullWhen Hell Is Full**
Sweet memories fade like old Navy clothing,
leaving an unpleasant taste in my mouth—
like a can of Grace corned beef with stale onions,
drizzled with oil; it was tolerable at the time.
Years have passed, yet those thoughts still
send chills down my spine. I utterly...

Believe In YourselfYou can only try,
Give it your best shot.
Wear a winning smile.
Plant a positive thought.
You're on your way now.
You're looking good.
Moving forward.
Out in front.
Aim high above the clouds,
and you can fly!
Believe in yourself.
Dreams can come true.
Set your goals high.
Don't limit yourself.
Create ideas and experiment.
Let your mind lead you.
Soon you will find,
all the amazing things you can...

Enjoy The RainThe sky, colored all shades of grey,
blocks out searing rays of sunlight.
And as clouds start cooling the day,
sprinkles bring a welcome delight.
A splashing sound
quenches the ground.
Droplets freckle the dirt with spots,
where the thirsty soil absorbs them.
And drops, drumming on roofs and pots,
frighten the dogs, causing mayhem.
A little rain
can entertain.
Nature loves taking a shower;
for it makes...

Blessed Be the Restorer of His SaintsBlessed be the Lord God Almighty,
Who delivereth His generals from the snares of the enemy.
In their great fall, He forsook them not,
But upheld them with His hand and called them once more.
He is the Shepherd who leaves not His own,
The Watchman who allows no harm to overtake His chosen.
Blessed be His Word;
Wise are all His...
