Premium MemberPoet's Honeymoon Collaboration With Joanna Daniels

POET'S HONEYMOON
Pretend we're on a poet's honeymoon
Let's dance atop the Massifs on the moon
We'll get our fill of Milky Way's champagne
Behind a chariot of stars, the twain

Each star a stepping stone of Heaven's rune
That leads down to a luminous lagoon
And when Andromeda begins to wane
We'll take our muses to another plane

Riding on the shooting star, we will croon
Rhapsodying together, hearts in tune
Lost in love, our muses will not complain
As we set foot in Sombrero's domain

Each planet, we'll decorate with festoon
And get drenched in Saturn's diamond monsoon
Once heights of passion with words, we attain
Back to earth, where we can pretend again.

Premium MemberSarah Neighed For Charlie Daniels

(Quick off the top of my haid)

Da dibble go down to Georgia
A town in Texas, who knew 
He went on de run
He took his six gun
Lookin' for to doo wacka doo.

He comed across a young sure-shot
Targetin' a hickory stump
Dibble feelin' sly
Slithered up to this guy
And patted him upon the rump.

"What you doin' mistuh?
You hyeh lookin' to die?
We'll duel then you'll
End up a dead fool
For layin' yo' hand on my thigh."

Dey faced off and Johnny drew
But de dibble had drawn his too
They pissed in the wind
They humped and they sinned
And de dibble got his koo koo ka joo.

Premium MemberTribute To Charlie Daniels

Charlie went up to heaven...
He and his soul of steel 
He said "If you don't mind I'll leave my music behind... 
I made that devil a deal" 

He came across him when he was young 
Sawin' on a fiddle playin' it hot 
He won a fiddle of gold against his soul 
A lesson the devil never forgot 

Charlie rosined up his bow... 
And he put the devil to rest 
Still, till this day even with his wings 
Charlie Daniels played the fiddle the best 


(R.I.P.)

After red life and death

Weather warning

From storm Ciara to Daniel

Is it just me ?

Or has the actual weather got worse

Flickering candles.
Dying light, like a refuge. 
Embrace the comfort
of nestling Ice cubes in Jack, 
And cigarettes with Joni.

Miss Stormy Daniels, that's not her real name
An alias she uses for the adult stuff game
She once had an affair with a high flyer
This was denied and they called her a liar.

Jack Daniels

    We rescued Winfred from the local shelter. What a name.
    he was there for a month with no savior. He was nervous.
    He jumped a lot. He **** a lot. He wanted to be loved.
    I can't help but wonder what he went through on
    the streets. He must have been terrified. Abandoned?
    separation anxiety? beaten? Abused in some of many ways?
    Our college daughter christened him Jack Daniels. Fitting.
   He's chewed our kitchen chairs into the trash. I don't blame him.
   I'm gentle with him. I think I understand him in a way. I guess
   in some ways he and I are opposite sides of the same coin.
   Emotionally frightened. Desperate to keep our people laughing
   and loving us and not beating us or sending us to our crates.
   The tone in your voice can beat me down like an old shoe.
   I just want to make you happy! I try so hard. I failed so often.

Premium MemberStorming Through the Sea- Collaboration With Jo Daniels

The weary sailors were lost at sea, 
Hoping to find a guiding light,
Wondering if they would survive this misery,
And escape their stormy plight;

 But the mighty waves would not relent,
 And roared like thunder through the night,
 The ship was tossed with fierce intent,
 The sea was showing them its might;

 The wind was blowing against them,
 And the sailors did not give up their fight,
 But they forgot their captain was at the helm, 
 Who had noticed a beacon shining bright;

 The lighthouse was but a speck in the storm,
 While turbulent waves gave a sure fright,
 Still, far, they could see an island form,
 And to them, it was the most beautiful sight;

 The captain whistled and steered the ship,
 The sailors encouraged, held on tight,
  Together, they did not let their vessel flip,
 As they reached the island safe alright.
                           ~~

Premium MemberJack Daniels and Mary Alice

Mary Alice loved her man, for him there was no bigger fan
There was nothing she didn’t love about Jack
His shape, his taste, his smell
He swept her away like a bat outta hell

All of it made her warm, loose, even hot
He made her laugh with each shot
Joyful and happy when together, an impossible dream, an inseparable team

Her friends begged Mary Alice
They meant no malice 
Leave him and leave soon
If you don’t you may never see June

Mary Alice feels his passion, his allure, his attraction
On her knees, she looks up to him, she smiles coyly 
Then guides Jack into her mouth
Deliberate and slow, swirling her tongue to savor his flavor

They found them both the next day because she let Jack stay
Dead on the couch, only heaven’s pull could take her higher
Assaulted by the stench of whiskey wafting like smoke from fire 
At once together and alone, Jack Daniels and Mary Alice

The Devil Went For Charlie Daniels

The Devil went down to Colorado
To see if he could pull Charlie's chart.
While Charlie was out snowmobiling,
The Devil would work on Charlie's heart.
But he got a shock when he went for Charlie
For there was a prayer barrier all around him.
Charlie's Guardian Angel had called for reinforcements
And a cohort of God's own angels now surround him.
We done told you before, Devil,
God has His hand on certain men
So you're wasting your time going for Charlie,
Don't even bother coming back again.
Yes, the Devil went down to Colorado
And he never dreamed he'd fail
But all he got for his trouble
Was cold feet and a frozen tail!

Jack Daniels

He stays smooth and strong for me to mingle

Though not quite enough to have a mere single

Sexy, dark, handsome and short

In his sweetness I find I am caught

I look over at the white's and I cringe

It has to be black if I'm going to binge

So I put him in my mouth and I swallow

And with that, I hope more of him will follow

Jack Daniels Ain'T As Good As Jesus Christ

VI.	I don’t need Jack Daniels, but I need Jesus Christ.  I’d rather sit on a pew, than to 
sit on a bar stool

CH.  Jack Daniels aint as good as Jesus Christ.  I’ll never thirst with Him, I’ll never thirst 
again.  I’m on my way to heaven, ‘cause I laid that bottle down.  Jack Daniels aint as good 
as Jesus Christ.

VII.	I’d rather sing “Amazing Grace” than to sin a country song.  I’d rather be with the 
Lord, than to open those swinging doors.

Jack Daniels and Me

V-1:
Clenched fists...in a barroom of sorrow
Against the bar...thinkin' bout tomorrow
Filling my mouth...from a peanut sack
Down I went...another shot from Jack

V-2:
I picked myself up...got me to my feet
Head spinning...as I sit on this bar seat
I wiped the blood...from my left brow
For tonight...Jack really put me down

Chorus:
All alone...Jack Daniels and me
Tonight my friend...had me feeling guilty
My wife up and left...said that's your life storie
As she left us alone...Jack Daniels and me

V-3:
Woke up this morning...in a Motel of shame
Still holdin' Jack...and my head full of pain
My mind flashed back...to the night before
Watching her leave...me and Jack on the floor

V-4:
I rememberd those words...she'd say everyday
The drinkin' must stop...or I'm going away
Now the last ten years...is all shot to hell
As I cling to my friend...on this floor where I fell

Chorus:
All alone...Jack Daniels and me
Last night my friend...had me feeling guilty
My wife up and left...said that's your life storie
As she left us alone...Jack Daniels and me
