advice from Uncle Kurt
you can be considerate and kind or snarly and mean
choices every day that are quickly made and rapidly seen.
Whatever you choose to do and say can bring happiness or hurt
So, think before you speak, said my Uncle Kurt.
He was a super nice man, who always thought of others.
Had been raised by a mother and sisters

I Shared a Kurt Vonnegut Lecture With My Students and They Beamed
They call it the Sunday Scaries
They call it the Bubble Visualisation Exercise
I felt the polished wood of my table
The softness of my son's hair
My pencil snapped when I started my Gratitude Journal
Turn to the person next to you and tell them about a teacher
As loud as God unzipping his fly
Sat in the back

Something In the Way Kurt Cobain
Born in Aberdeen Washington
where he hung out,
“Underneath the bridge,
the tarp has sprung a leak”
Taught himself to play guitar,
liked to smoke some weed,
“And the animals I’ve trapped
have all become my pets”
Started writing songs,
had very deep meaning,
“And I’m living off of grass
and drippings from the ceiling”
Formed the band Nirvana
with some of

Called By Cobain - Seance
Beside midnight's minting bare branches
Dead fingered messages on bedroom pane scratches
Four awe struck teens oija board captured
Followed fast spelt results, from rock star sanctioned

Rule My Destiny
I wanna rule my destiny, like Buju
Be free to connect with nature
Maybe learn a little Voodoo
Uplift my spirituality
Am I in a horrible dream
Or is this bondage my reality
In a parallel universe
Compelled to move forward
But Earth appears to be going in reverse
Am I wrong to feel obsolete
Could I pull off a Hatshepsut reign
Bob Mar, I don’t

Dancing In Horror With Fate In Blackest Abyss Collaboration With Kurt Ravidas
Dancing In Horror With Fate In Blackest Abyss
Collaboration with Kurt Ravidas
I walk mountain storm, step out to cut deep its edge
forever tempting that fall from its narrow ledge,
in the midst of ravenous rage and great sorrows
this beseeching spirit begs for more tomorrows;
yet as silence echoes from tumultuous skies
there is that cold ache telling me heaven

Kurt the Astronomer
There was an astronomer called Kurt
Had star patterns all over his shirt
Discovered a new planet
Named it after wife Janet
But then on his lens found it was dirt.
Disappointed he hit the town’s bars
Tried crossing the road dodging the cars
But then he ran out of luck
Kurt got flattened by a truck
Now he is up there amongst

Kurt Cobain
I was always the first to blame myself
For all the hurt and pain I felt
A few times I even tried to Kurt Cobain myself
But I picked up a pen and these words came to help
I'm going to say everything that should be said right now
Looking back, I could be dead right now
Got told I'd be

Kurt Cobain
I was there,
I saw that brick alley
where brick by brick I walked with him
beneath a stone bridge,
to a carved-out tree
that Summer in Prague, and kissed.
All I think about now
is Kurt Cobain,

Kurt Donald Cobain My Idol
Some of you may know my idol, some of you may not.
His name is Kurt Cobain, and I hate it when people critisize him,
and judge him, or anything, don't talk about him badly.
Some say that he killed himself which is not true.
His wife Courtney Love did it.
She was going to hire this man to do

Legends live their life, off the track….
God give them things, in a different pack…
Pack of pain…agony n dismay….
Which burns them hard n baptize through the way…
Then they do something, which’s remembered till the end…
N that’s what make you Kurt, an undead legend
We know you had yor life, a life real bad…

Kurt Cobain
My eyes are dry,
from the tears i cry,
'cuz you never really got the chance
to sing your song and dance,
'territorial pissings'
is why im missing
'come as you are'
from near and far
just to show you,
that we have a clue,
of how you delt
with the way you felt
enough drugs to kill three
"drinks are on me"
from the day you were born

Of Broken Hearts and Dead Heroes- Kurt Vonnegut 1922-2007
Breakfasting with champions
Sound nutrition for a growing girl
Delicious, too.
Damn near perfection.
Cat in my cradle
sharp claws and foreboding meows
prophetically scratching out neural canals
filled with songs of the way it goes.
‘Charm’s a scheme’ – opus in D Major
‘Maturity a bitter disappointment’ – e minor fugue
and ‘The purpose of a human life,
no matter who’s controlling it
is to love

Kurt
He was a singer named Kurt,
Courtney Love made him hurt.
She tore his heart,
Right from the start.
Now he's dead and she's to blame,
She stole his legacy, his life, his name.
A single shot and he was dead,
She put a bullet through his head.
She wreaked his life,
As his 'loving' wife.
SHE KILLED KURT!!!
