Time Waits for No One
Time waits for no one. Isn’t that great? If it waited on us, it would end up too late. We think we’re the master of our time controlled realm, But Time is the faster man at the helm. What we witness now is already gone. When? Where? and How? is the ultimate con. When we’re young and naïve, we set ourselves...

Premium Member Cheap, on Our Dime
Every year when taxes are due, I pay mine to the full, Even though some other people call it a bunch of bull. Some don't pay their taxes for there is an aberration. As time goes by they holler, "Statute of Limitation". They live in a life of luxury, these entitled few, Expecting us to pay their way, since...

Creaky floors rusted gates at your feet the fallen's fate
The Creators brush in the stream of Ocean waves Painting with feeling and shading with inner thought Inventing a life a moment of escape Swimming towards an open gate A trigger with a conscience A finger on a dime in somebody's tore pocket What is saved at the end of the day without the skill of care. Losing...

If I had a dime
If I had a dime I'd pay for the time that I had lost long ago but I only have a penny and a head filled with many memories of summer spent with you Now it's winter, and I still think of the summer nights although we had our fair share of fights nothing compares to those 90 days...

Take me back to the dime bag days when we were hotel hippies, thirsty for trouble and stuck in a state of delirium. Our souls were scattered messes among the unbent hills - dreaming of rebellion and freedom, pockets...

The Bread Tricks
On a sunny day, I walk down the road, and I stumble upon a cool dude, who snaps a dime that turns into bread, and earns two more by a trade. I was amazed by his magic, but something pulled me back, and I panic then shout "Oh, tragic", as I poked into my pouch I pulled my hand off my pocket and...

Dime a Dozen
6/27/22 Instead of what of them Shout out to my cousins Damn look what the cat drug in People often buggin' Another useless discussion They say it all comes a dime a dozen Endlessly fussin' Fighting over an english muffin Usually from one being a drunken At such a pitiful rate, none win Eyes becoming sullen and sunken Areas desolate or flooded All of a sudden It turned cold...

I could have collected empty soda cans from the side of the road and cashed them in They were worth five cents apiece back then I only needed...

Premium Member The Penny and the Dime
Together in my pocket, With no future in mind. They often rub against each other, As if they are blind. Recalling better times, when They weren't so small. With memories of buying bits of Candy, or even making a call. This history is lost on most, ...
