Premium Member Half Past Summer, Two Months Till Fall
Why is Sumner such a short time, just getting started then running into half past summer. July seems to be the half way mark, August is almost here. August will turn into September then into October, then fall will be here. Fall with cooler days, a pretty carpet of colorful leaves covering the ground....

Premium Member giant hole in the ground

Premium Member Shady Way
Your cheeks are tending to the ground And I’m so slow today Look at the memory I’ve found Before it flies away The lifeline furrow on your palm Runs through the hills and dales Inside the storm it could be calm Despite the blowing gales My glasses gleam with gold and brown I have to go again I cannot see what time is now Could be...

Ground Clouds and Fish Smaze
A mackerel sky fillets a fish scaled village, an ear clapping, full sailed, fog moors itself to the rooftops, then hides all in a breezeless blear. Rheumy eyes peep out from nets, damp noses sniff abaft trawling drapes. Cloth in hand, potbellied proprietors battle the splatter and spray, dabbing at mildewed shelves, warding away slopping waders and salty puddles. On the sightless sea far beyond the shore...

Cold, Cold Ground
The cold, so cold ground Binding and pulling And holding me down Embraced by the crypt Confined and restrained And life’s breath stripped Stygian inked Such stifling dark And soul’s light extinct I find myself here Trussed by death’s grave Without hope, just fear In the cold, cold ground Decayed and corrupt Neath my burial mound ...

On Solid Ground
Don't you ever lose hope Keep your feet on solid ground Never doubt the Lord's great love Seek Him while He may be found The angels sing His praises They exalt His mighty Name They would move heaven and earth for Him Leading souls who once knew shame Alleluia blessed is the King Throughout times of great trials Peace to His people He will bring ...

Intellectually and artificially Can it be more worse, tell me unofficially Why should we be managed for what Bloody purpose to satisfy who’s plot To tell you the truth I miss my youth I’m sorry this lesson to learn But you feel the same Here we go again But thank God we shall never return Away from this paradise lost I can’t pay the required...

Premium Member Stand Your Ground, Don’t Get Pushed Around
If a cop stops you and says, "Show me your ID," Know your rights before you agree. They can’t demand it just on suspicion, There must be a crime, a law must be broken. No crime? No reason? Then stand your ground, Don't allow yourself to get pushed around. If they threaten you with arrest, if you don’t...

Premium Member At Least One Giant Ground Sloth Is Alive Again
I found it curled in the shadow of what used to be a hospital. A slow hunch of fur, the color of old bark—like the forest had tried to grow itself a question. It didn’t look surprised to see me. Just blinked, as if measuring whether I was worth the glance. I sat cross-legged beside it, tore foil from a protein bar— offered the whole...

Premium Member On any ground
When you’ve been subjected to violence, scars and bruises tell. When you’ve been subjected to violence the mind doesn’t trust people that well. When you’ve been subjected to cruelty the scars don’t necessarily show. When you’ve been subjected to cruelty the internal bruises can grow. Finding ways to deal with… why! Why do I react like that? Why do...
