High Risk

You Know?

All the Lucky
People Rolling
In Dough?

They Could Be
Bankrupt!

Like We Are...

You Know.

Risk

Knowingly take part,
In a dangerous game, love,
A high risk of pain.

Super Love

Super love, super love why aren’t you alive? The power of your mood is dead
My life would have been earth, flower is your homeland, garden closed, life is dead
Super love, super love, why aren’t you alive? The power of your desire is dead

Super love, super love why are you so far? It’s my mistake, everything is in the sky
My life is just emptiness, bad life, never mind. It’s my mistake, everything is in the sky
Super love, super love, why are you so far? Our life is ended, no desire, dark sky

Super love, super love why are you so dark? It’s our fault, our sky has gone so far
My life is just a phenomenon, dark life, black roses, your cross, never mind, it’s in the sky 
Super love, super love, give me back my life, my poor life, it”s yours always in the sky

At the sky 
On the sky 
In the sky

Never mind
Super love…
Gone far…

Yeah
Forget about me
My life is a hazard
High risk
… Super Love

If you have trouble
your friends will help you out
I'm sending you love, good luck.)

Lighting it up near jerry can.

Premium MemberRisky

Our lives were always at high risk in that small town of loonies. 
Ironically, we still take calculated risks in cities;
Where we found our true selves, no longer need each other's pities.

Siren-red hair, it screams from port.
Starboard aflame with twilight’s trance.
Intense Paulette ~ the sea’s consort.
Siren-red hair, it screams from port,
nudging the captain and his court.
Danger at dawn - high risk romance.
Siren-red hair, it screams from port.
Starboard aflame with twilight’s trance.

Premium MemberIsaiah Remixed

Gaia is radically interdependent Earth,
CoCreator of paradise
and pandemics,
of safe drinking water
and healthy fertile soil,

S/He does not faint
or grow weary;
His Yang Heaven raining
manna understanding
is also wellness watering
Her Yintegral Earth
rebirthing
inscrutably dense compassionate soil.

S/He gives cooperatively owned power
to those poor
in humane natural Spirit,
and transparently enlightened strength
to those uncompetitively powerless

Victims immigrating
in this Great UnRaveling Exodus
from high risk inhumane enslavement
to royal profits,

Prophets now trending toward traumatic
right wing rabid distortion,
trumpeting EarthTribe overtures
to understated extinction.

It Could Be True

It could be true 

 I often wonder if there is a secret plot.
If the virus was human-made to reduce the number
of people living in poverty, and the old?
The minorities who live in inadequate cold housing have
high risk of catching the pest.
How can the poor keep the distance when living?
In tiny flats they cannot move, a lousy diet makes them vulnerable.
They die in record-high numbers.
It was like smearing the virus in liquid for on doors
and wait.
But the hidden elite was surprised who quickly the virus spread. 
It affected their own, even a prime minister,
But he was known for having a loose moral and probably 
Got it from a scullery maid, in his circle of toffs it is normal
Sleeping with a maid.
When a sufficient number had died of the vaccine was introduced 
They had held back for many months it is free, and we are thankful.
And think not of revolution.

Covered

????Why are you not wearing a mask?'....
Is the question to ask....
To anyone who scootles on past....
So close, too fast....
Especially when doing the usual food shopping task...
Which I leave till late, I'm usually one of the last. 
Being High Risk, I do it fast...
Seeing someone unmasked is such a visual contrast 
....The Twilight Zone couldn't surpass....
I am left totally aghast.

Premium MemberDoorposts and Lintels

  When I heard of a deadly plague, I read Exodus 12:27, “Mark the doorposts and lintels.”   Anointing doors, I prayed this plague would pass our house. My granddaughter, working a high-risk job, has been safe.  Praise God for his covering!       

faith without action

Premium MemberMask Can Wait

Wear a smile
Wears a mask
Mask for others
Mask for you
You want to be safe
You want to be good
Good citizen
Good neighbor
Neighbor of the world 
Neighbor who shelters in place
Place your bets
Place your marker
Marker marks moment
Marker climbs high
High risk
High wire
Wire the masses
Wire service dispute
Dispute a mask
Dispute the pandemic
Pandemic paranoia
Pandemic persecution
Persecution of one
Persecution of some
Some conform
Some rebel
Rebel as a nation
Rebel as a protestor
Protestor finds a way
Protestor knows his rights
Rights enforced by constitution
Rights upheld by law
Law feels less concrete now
Law easily broken
Broken country
Broken trust
Trust your instincts
Trust your heart
Heart led ideas
Heart led ideals
Ideals upheld
Ideals followed
Followed by spirit
Followed by truth
Truth felt keenly
Truth lying in wait
Wait for a sign
Wait for good times
Times
Sign…

The Times To Come

It won’t be long before we will see
breakdown of moral values and family,
Marriage won’t be sacred as of yore
we won’t see man and wife anymore.

The family will be considered a species rare
state protected and under classified care,
Free love will be a taboo for its high risk factor
sex will be coded and monitored by a doctor.

There will be computerized fantasy terminals
catering to a wide range of erotic potentials,
With sensual simulators creating titillating illusion
to gratify one’s lust beyond his wildest imagination.

In this age of degeneracy and prevailing vice
everything will be bought and sold for a price,
From the soul of a man to the love of his mother
in the stores, thru ads, and at every street corner.

Stripped of moral fiber from its social fabric
society will be thread bared, soiled and sick,
Doomed to a fast-paced life of strife and stress
it will yearn for a moment of peace and happiness.
