Long Overdue Number 2

Haunting me, daunting me, & f--king taunting me
Saying that you & I will never, ever again be
I'm just supposedly wasting my time on you - so cut the f--king strings
Those strings held you & I like a kevlar-lined, kryptonite-chained, indestructible trampoline
These voices - they keep stalking me - bouncing off these walls
Ricocheting & reverberating through

Long Overdue

I’ve waited far too long to give
And get back in return
The kind of hug for which long-distance
Causes you to yearn.

But yesterday, at last, I did 
Experience that treat
And got to spend some precious time
To make my joy complete.

When friendship’s deep and close and strong,
The phone keeps the connection,
Though there is nothing like a hug
To share

You Are Long Overdue

All around the world.
     You look for me.
      Do not leave,
    A stone unturned.
    In brothels and bars,
    From near and far.
    Around a corner or an alley,
    Between, Gingers’ valley.

A Change Long Overdue - Title By Steve Miller

I come to you at the lowest point in my life,
Because I know that my new one must start here.
I’m the only one that has caused myself pain and strife.
I must begin change with the one I see in the mirror.

As I look at myself and see that I’m going nowhere,
I come here in the

Forgiveness Long Overdue-

Come rise with me above the horizon;
Console the seeds of the Messiah soon;

Come breach the calms of distorted waves of view;
Banquet the thoughts of evil discord;

What to ignore, no need to explore;
What rights if I had to choose;

Unrepentant evils I've done I lose;
My forgiveness is long overdue:

Comeuppance Long Overdue Trump

Sands of time runneth out
stout whistleblowers must apply clout
to affect the commander in chief forced...
send him back his favorite mantra,
that churlish, childish and cheapish tricky lout
arrogant, defiant, haughty... without doubt

exceeded probation apprenticed, I shout
out, his poor performance absolute zero
as presidential material about
effective electing trout
as huff fish hint leader of America
rather less so - hook, line

Spring Is Long Overdue

Is spring ever freaking well going to arrive
Bloody hell, it's long overdue, sakes alive
Done nothing wrong
Wear clean sarongs
Well sometimes I neglect to powder my thighs

Seems Long Overdue-Work In Progress

Many Many Jobs
If I was a kid,
I'd stack them like pogs

Never did I find a place
That I wanted to pursue
A legitimate company
Seemed long overdue

Searched and Searched
Found no more
Can't be late or get fired
Really? Who's keeping score?

Finally found Verizon
Worked on the phones
Thought it was a final destination
Melted my sanity to my bones

Felt I was sufficating
My world

Long Overdue

Illusion illusion,
My dreams end in disillusion;
Confusion confusion,
My thoughts are jumbled fusion;
Nightmares and dreams,
Bust and blend at the seams;
Never do I know where they start;
Where the they will at any minute come apart,
This is your doing my undoing;
Creeping up on me I feel the sting,
Of reality the apprehension;
Can't break the icy tension,
Though you are just within

Explanation Long Overdue

I know it matters little, 
At this time, I am sure,
But I've always felt,
I owed you,
A reason why,
We did not endure...

As I approach,
The final destination,
I've unfinished chores,
I must amend,
And I guess
It's up to each
Of us to tend...

It may sound insane,
In fact, I think it is...
I was feeling too much in love,
Something had to give...
All I'm
