What would Jesus Do?
Certainly not everything
I ask -- far wiser! Honestly,
I doubt that any of us knows.
Would He turn the other cheek?
Perhaps, turn a few tables over?
Call all Father's children, his
sacred sisters and brothers,
or a generation of Vipers and
snakes? Instead of armies,
would He have sent Social
Workers to settle with Hitler?
What I don't want to do...
is someday stand before God
and say, while the world was
burning, and innocence being
consumed, all I did was pray
when a bucket of water sat
beside me....
no one said life would be a breeze
i compare it to getting out and climbing trees
i sometimes fall to my knees but don't stay down
i get up and refuse tenaciously to wear a frown
in my imagination i have wings and i roam free
i do my best to expand the big world before me

the walls sweat cheap bourbon,
the clock grinds its teeth,
and outside, the night spits curses
at the drunks who never learned to lose.
you ask me how to leave life
without dying—
but what have you ever had
that wasn't already rotting?
the job, the woman, the rented room,
they all go like smoke
from a busted cigarette—
thin, wasted, without apology.
maybe you walk away slow,
maybe you stay and let the rats
teach you how to chew through steel.
either way, the joke's on you.
Get out
into the world,
go find your priceless pearl
Once found, cherish it then release
it back so that others
can get out too,
LOVE LIFE

ya need tuh feel the sun
babe
press thoze stubbie
toez in thuh grass
smell thuh flowerz
hurrie yup
darl'n
'fore ya gotta wear
clothez
come unduh this
tree babe
'fore the autumn
comez
and shrinks
my
woe
yo
ouch
no
orchids babe
orchids
Break away the manacles of fear
Get up and get away from here
Out into the great, great yonder
Scratch that incessant itch of wonder
Follow the steam of your heart
Chug, chug, chug on down the tracks, apart
And with your beautiful mind, fly, fly into
The vastness of a beautiful "NEW."
A little tidbit
Before you arrive in the rainforest
if you get lost
and fall into quicksand
do not panic
calmly lean back into a back float position
slowly move your feet circularly
without panic!
you might be able to free yourself
if you stay calm
if not,
you might slide under the quicksand
as if you are the inside of a taco
luckily you will be too quickly snapped up
to panic now
always fight
your doubtful mind
when it
turns against you
and keeps feeding you
blatant lies
never...
doubt yourself
you just
have to trust
your instincts
and never become
your own worst enemy;
get...
out of your own way.
LOGIN,
When he says," LOGIN,"
She can ask " WHERE ?,
WHERE ABOUT ?"
He can be meaning "SING IN HIS HEART"
And the password is " TRUE LOVE"
He loves you so much,
Once you LOGIN in his life,
You accepted his terms and conditions:
A) being his best friend in life,
B) being his happiness,
C) being his comforter in hard times,
D) being his partner in his future projects
E) being with him till to death
LOGOUT,
He won't forget you
when DEATH will force you to GET OUT
of his life ,
Because :
A) It will be a chock in his life,
B) You will remain in memory forever,
C) It won't be your fault to leave him,
D) You will be resting in peace ,
As the scripture says, "
only death will separate you."

Get out of my face, I holler
Leave me alone, I scream
Like spectators in a darkened arena
Like a colony of ants
Like stars in black
Like overgrown grass, dead
Like sand like coal
Get out of my face...

blank stares
indifferent shrugs
cruel features
hostile mugs
mumbled answers
to detective's probes
Soros funds their side
no use booking these thugs
its been to long
its going on and on
things you do
broke my heart into
i can't take no more
here's the door
this i say tonight
GET OUT MY LIFE
its been to long
its going on and on
things you do
broke my heart into
i can't take no more
here's the door
this i say tonight
GET OUT MY LIFE
its been to long
its going on and on
things you do
broke my heart into
i can't take no more
here's the door
this i say tonight
GET OUT MY LIFE
