One crazy rollercoaster ride
I'm a wild nomadic rocker
stratocaster guitar is my one true friend

OUR LIFESTYLE
We never faked it
always keeping it real
When we get, we ball
When we don't have, we work hard
Life is dually; High or low
Good or bad times, win or lose
We're always ready for anything.
No racing with any
Steadily thriving in our lane
Because we've got no mate
Never to be limited, we're unlimited
For we got taste, depending on our

Get this show on the road
Let’s get this show on the road,
The car's still empty and we can't seem to load
Susie's applying makeup, Jake’s playing video games,
Mary’s scrolling her socials, where friends call her names.
I want to get to the airport, I want to be
clambering into an Impressionist painting of the sea
Ride the chestnut ponies, get back to something real,
My

Grave Digger
Can't get you to understand.
I already know your kind.
You're really blind.
Maybe, a sign,
to you, will be given.
To make you change,
your way of living.
I'm through with always giving.
It's only your grave,
that you're digging.

Adriana
my neighbour was a simple woman
quiet and modest in all ways
she led the kind of life
that most would never envy
from nine to five she'd pay her dues
but then on weekends would come to life
she'd get dolled up and put on heels
and turn into a real live beauty queen

I Understand Now
A multinational corporation
Will probably sell your thoughts
In exchange of profits and assets,
More valuable than your freedom.
But can you stop them?
A real question.
Probably not, for you don't understand
The rules of this game.
I have played for a while,
And have had experiences like forever.
It isn't a game of your opinions.
I understand now.

The Gym Awaits
Yesterday I thought of going to the gym
for a minute considered going for a swim
then I remembered I had better things to do
convinced I could come up with a thing or two
Today I was thinking again of going to the gym
but soon gave up on that reckless silly whim
instead stayed home to bake a chocolate

11 THE LEARNING CURVE
the next few years were testing, I had to learn new skills
from the handling of a wheelchair to the sorting out of bills
to go shopping with a wheelchair, trying to navigate the aisles
some people gave us dirty looks, but some others gave us smiles
the thing I found most hard to bear, was other people's attitudes
a

Narcissism
Narcissism
Oh, there are so many bad definitions
Narcissism is not an egoism or selfishness
Ask please Salvadore Dali, the painter
Condemning false ascertainment, it’s love
lifestyle, a style, what gives a protection
Help others, create new things here and there
And, and
the Love
Be health
and, and
Feel well
A waiter
A broker
A trader
An actor
An artist
Must be
magnetic,
good looking
for positive
feedback.

LIFESTYLE BALANCE
LIFESTYLE BALANCE
Apples, oranges and banana's to,
Strawberries are so delicious,
And are very good for you.
Lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber and some celery,
Make tasty salad dishes for you and me.
Potatoes, carrotts, mushrooms and peas,
A very healthy casserole,
I'll have some, "Yes, please!"
Vitamins are good for your bones, hair and skin,
It is important to eat healthily,
And also for your organs within.

If This Was the Last Goodbye
Sponsored by: Silent One
If this was the last
___________________
| If this was the last_goodbye |
But, what if this was the last time I cried,
Don't want to be hidden behind lying scrys.
The world forgotten on their prying device,
Humanity alone algorithmic thrice.
Heaven on you shoulder beckons you home,
Mirror-sucking marrow through soulless domes.
But, what if this is the last

Lifestyle
I have been loaded with blessings,
You may be asking;
Where are those hallowings,
That I keep announcing,
You may not be perceiving,
The reason for my sayings,
Later! I may be answering;
Your concernings.
Oh! You people keep asking,
Questioning!!
My daily blessings,
That no one is visioning,
Except, I'm true in my perceiving,
In tune with my living,
Beyond my sayings,
I may let you on seat clamping,
To
