My bones are old, so I’ve been told;
It’s osteoporosis.
Accepting that if I go splat
I’m done – that’s the prognosis.
So when it’s cold, I’m not so bold
To walk if streets are icy.
One little slip may crack my hip;
To chance it might be dicey.
And so today, I had to weigh
Conditions ‘fore my journey
Or I’d go whoosh, land on my tush
And end up on a gurney.
My normal route I was astute
Enough to see could trip me
So I took stock and ‘round the block
I walked and I was slip-free.
When I was young, I must have clung
To thoughts of never aging
But now, alas, I watch my ass
And every step I’m gauging.
SHENIKA SIMS
going in circles in my mind
jumping over puddles
doing carwheels in multiples of three
thinking of you can't you see
my artwork has more positive themes
my heart medicinally skips beats so it seems
cannot wait to pack suitcases
go so many outfits, bathing suits, and...shoot....clothes to look through
i cannot believe this kind of love i feel for you
i feel like a trampoline with lipstick because i wanna jump your bones
see, you got me saying silly (edit) like that
i am thinking quite unladylike thoughts right now as a matter of fact
however you have been respectful and for the first time in a long time i feel like a lady
renewed, revitalized, and reborn....going in circles in my mind
MARTY KING
going in circles in my mind
got sam cook requesting cupid to draw back that bow
well miss cupid shot straight for my brain and woke me up
the first lovely vision i saw when i did....well....was you
while thinking of you, i find myself feebly attempting to skip rocks in a lake
i find myself jumping up and all up in the spirit making the earth shake and quake
i look at the clouds and see forms of arrows through hearts and people kissing
it took me about twenty some odd years to realize that it is you that i've been missing
while others were steadily moving, here in this dusty corner i sat
i cannot believe that i chose to do ridiculously senseless stuff like that
oh yeah, i am thinking thoughts like a dude, but i choose to sincerely respect you
furthermore, you have been so accepting of Me as My Self, and i have never experienced that as a man
renovated, recognized, and reborn....going in circles in my mind
Looking down the rabbit hole peering into the deepest state of blue
My tangled soul falls headlong into the abyss
Nothing left to miss
Ive dug my own hole to nowhere
Left numb without concern or care
Yet all these wasted years and salty tears
Shattered hopes and petty fears
Have made this hollow abyss my empty home
And alone i find comfort being an outcast
Living with a conscience trashed
Accepting the sting of the accusors lash
Waiting for the spreading numbness to take hold
Breathing deep the dark and cold
Expelling whats left of this crippled soul
I become one with the deep state of blue
Im not the man I thought i knew.
Hey, let’s go to the moon
Opportunity will be departing soon
Count is descending down
Orbit will be bound
Hear the roaring engines sound
Amazing adventure maybe found
Playing lunar,’ ring around’
Shooting off into the night’s air
Like a candlelight flare
Nothing can compare
Accepting this trusting dare
Lasting ten days
Going both ways
Checking neighboring planet’s backside
During the fly
Bye
Without a tourist guide
Bringing home souvenir data and results
Empowered using many energy volts
Time to take the darken path
And invade the heavenly wrath
Hiking a darken road
Being very bold
Artemus two mission easily sold
We have been told
Sun agreed wearing blinging gold
Shining bright
Heating our exploring knights
With illuminating light
Assisting them in this successful flight
I admire you to the fullest,
For accepting me into your heart.
You didn't have to do that,
I'm forever grateful from the start.
The moment you saw my face,
You watched a light shine deep within.
Unaware of how life would change,
The moment that you bravely stepped in.
When you told me that I could,
Consider you as my real Dad.
Made my heart fillup with joy,
For that, I'll forever be glad.
You do not know how much,
Of an influence you have on me.
Giving me back what I'd lost,
Is the best gift that'll last eternally.
I admire you to the fullest,
For accepting me into your heart.
You didn't have to do that,
I'm forever grateful from the start.
Future dreams- I have put on hold because of dreadful fear,
Until now, I am trapped in a cemetery with the dead, weeping;
To myself so often, I say just let it go, let the pain go-follow dreams.
Until now, my yesterdays were more important than tomorrows,
Ravaged has been my short life and my future out of sight;
Ends of journeys usually mean beginnings of others- but I am stuck.
I have had a dark past, full of death and tragedy. And I am unable to let it go.
And what is odd is that my parents were the happiest people, never full of gloom.
Why cannot I be more like them? They were always looking to the future, they had
plans and dreams, and they never dwelled in the past. They could have, but did not.
My Dad used to say that life is like chapters in a book, you finish one, begin another.
I know that it will be impossible to live my dreams until I accept the sad of my past.
Accepting the past will allow me to move into the future. Yesterday is history and
tomorrow is a mystery, as the saying goes. I want to make new memories, happy
ones, but first I must find the happiness that dwells within. And move on because
I have beautiful dreams full of peace and tranquility and awesome new adventures.
I will take the past
lessons and bring them with me-
amazing are my dreams

Poem of the Day, May 9, 2016
Today I want to sing a song,
I write an ode to sunny days , to love .
To you and your translucent ways,
Cause like you say : when we are together,
nothing goes wrong .
Accepting this , took me a while :
You are the coffee that makes me better .
You are that hand that grabs me stronger,
Your lips dissolve all that is harsh ,
when facts of life start to annoy me .
You keep me safe from nights of thunder .
You broke the cycle of useless chaps .
You celebrate my imperfections ,
You love me just the way I am.
You always say : I’m precious oxygen
In the four chambers of your heart .
Since I have met you I’m always smiling
I haven’t cursed not even once .
That guy is nuts - some people comment ,
-He doesn’t know that crazy gal .
But I just walk and kiss your hands ,
You told me once silence is bolder ,
If you can scream on my behalf .

LORD GOD, YOU ARE MY OFFERING RECEIVER
Lord God, You are my offering Receiver Who deals with me so kindly
Thank You for accepting my sincere praises constantly…
I come before Your presence continually
With my psalms of gratitude joyfully.

Thank You for letting my visione behold Your wondrous works indeed…
I glory in Your holy name, seeking You to meet my need
With my desire to enjoy Your marvellous blessings, devoid of greed.
Lord God, You are my offering Receiver Who gives me life everlasting
Thank You for confirming my inheritance I’m appreciating…
I declare Your goodness and mercy, always soul-converting
With my worship while my character You’re perfecting.

Thank You for guarding my testimony by Your Spirit’s sword…
I trust Your wisdom to instill in me Your truth-record
With my willingness by the compassion You alone can afford.

Thank You for comforting my heart that in Your love does dwell…
I rely in Your greatness so awesome as Your salvation I tell
With my faith You strengthen, freed from sin-condemning hell.

Thank You for smiting my selfishness in its carnal stride…
I hide in Your preservation in my heavenly ride
With my persistence to stand upon Your assurance, not worldly-tied.
Lord God, You are my offering Receiver Who hears me in my supplication
Thank You for fighting for my welfare with Your cheers of congratulation…
I yield to Your reign midst complete submission
With my humility to involve in the fulfillment of Your great commission.

Fragile, but already broken.
Pieces gone, holes in my soul.
Knock me down with a feather.
Kill me with a whisper.
I'm draining the ocean a tear at a time
And I can't swim through the blackness.
Far away echoes of hope
Reverberate through my head
But are too weak to reach my heart.
My fingers cling achingly to the ledge of
Possibilities of tomorrow,
Preferable possibilities of no tomorrow.
I climb towards the light
Only to find it has blinded those who
Claim to worship it.
So I sink back down
From the weight of their righteousness,
Cursed to see light, but unworthy to live it
Because my eyes are open.
Faith massages my weary being
That longs to rest in accepting arms.
One. More. Day.

Why, if having a heart and heaving with its flow
On high tides, riding its waves with a majestic pretence
And accepting its falls with humble palms
Makes of me a fool, one stupid enough as to be used,
Pray, know that my feelings, in the very end, are that
Which allow me to live, as humanly as anyone on Earth would!
My pains are similar to those felt by the rest of the world
Same goes for my joys,
And that makes of life a prison, senseless and meaningless,
Revolving on itself without purpose, taking us
There where the road ends, propelling us not on the way forward,
Rather, pushing us back to those same bold waves we have been
Riding on!
Is this the essence of life then? whispered my tears to the wind,
We fight battles that are not worth fighting for,
We stress ourselves out only to emerge as losers
Why, we live, only to die, as if we were raw materials, needed
To create products, which once used, and abused of,
Can be recycled, mercilessly!
If this is life's meaning, then, pray, glorious be Inexistence's peace!
