Premium Member Doing
We do things we love Do things we hate -- One, for affection: and the other, for fiend necessity, like~ executions and wars… Maybe better, not to confound the two – maybe better, more and less we do?!...

No Ego Joe Show
On every outing…no touting or fostering of pouty louty shouty postering… No flouting of the definition of classical ebb and flow rendition… Yet boundaries scouting…Rooty sedition routing the opposition… Echo the past…poetic…the ship’s mast and fillip for the cast.. Prophetic.. to and fro athletic ascetic aesthetic …traditions bestow and glow… No 20/20 generic…why old school is still and always will...

Terra Incognita
Putting out fires not of my making it's time-consuming heart-breaking the grass over there don't seem any greener and from my perspective the streets are meaner the so-called social networks are as unsociable as can be impersonal with dirty laundry on show for everyone to see despite self-admitted wrong-doing and misdeeds the herd still follows their every lead but I won't borrow sorrow and...

My Thoughts
My mind is locked, I feel so low Drowning deep, don't know where to go I search for keys to unlock my brain But thoughts are stuck, driving me insane I wish I could break free from pain But darkness grips, refuses to wane Suicide's not the answer, I know My mind's a mess, feeling lost and slow I see the key, but...

What The Hell Are You Doing Here?
He looked at me, eyes dull and cold, “What the hell are you doing here?” And just like that-my heart caved in, Shattered by the words I feared. I had come with love in trembling hands, A daughter needing something small- Just a soft goodbye, a crack of light, But he built another wall. I stood there stunned, not sure to speak, Not...

The Art of Doing Nothing
i will just ll. like leaves lean low in wind, not asking why the sky keeps its blue to itself. i will just ll. let light leak through the blinds like a quiet kind of grace on a wall that forgot to hope. i will just ll. not rise, not fall but linger, in the hush between hours. i will just ll. like the last word on the...

Romans 3:10 There is no one doing what is right not even one
To my children and grandchildren, Ask God to help you forgive. When you experience hate or hurt any day. Human pride hates to admit, That we are a "Fleshy Mess!" Watch the news there's nothing to guess. We are made to be like our Creator, Designed for caring and love. That's why we must cast our eyes above. Countless times I've been hurt and...
