When comments are in
Such short supply
You can not even buy one
Even if you we're not strapped
for cash and had a pocket full of
fivers
And plenty room left to spare
on your paid up credit card
And then totally out of the blue
4 green comment bubble's appear
out of nowhere
Better than anything in your
wildest dreams you could imagine
That light up and you take to heart
Like you have just won the lottery
And make you feel like they are
as close to 1 or know you as well
as a member of your own family
Leaving behind what can only be
described as the smell of
Sweet success joy eternal
happiness
Gratitude blessings and wishing
nothing more
Than to let them know
And pay the comment or massive
compliment back in spades
So my kind sincere regards
To you David Goliath Sir
For making not my day , week ,
month or year
But all of the above and so
much more
Word's alone fail me to do
justice to explain
here i am yearning
for mashed potatoes and gravy
honeybaked ham and honey butter biscuits
all of the above inspires me to make hot oatmeal raisin cookies
and buttercream cake squares
i wash down with more overeating and set up an oldies station
right now chuck berry is talking about havana moon and lou johnson
is asking someone or another to reach out for him
old eddie is speaking truth about blues in the summertime and joe jones
does the same about the everyday loquacious one
it is during the latter song when i realize that we are all lapping up love
in our own little ways
i am just lost in my own little reverie of ThankGod without knowing it
here i am....still learning....
I was a mean-spirited, remorseless boy
when it came to get revenge
with the boldest outrage...
Joey never suspected foul play from me!
We were the cruelest classmates,
bullying on the weak and skinny ones;
emptying out their pockets and confiscate
their money as if we were the Internal Revenue...
where would we get that without another avenue?
We looked at them laughing, but our laughter was deliberate!
A question remained, " Who was going to be the treasurer? "
Joey stared at me with envy trying to say, " It's me! "
I stared at him in the same way wishing it were me!
" Andy, let me handle the treasure since I like math! "
And with confidence he promised, " Not a dime will be missing! "
" I have to trust you on that, Joey...you talk silly! "
But he shouted, " You couldn't keep a secret!
Your mom will wonder where you've gotten all that money, thinking
you have done something stupid and illegal like robbing or stealing! "
" Okay, " I snarled, " You got your wish...you grizzly bear! "
Morning came as I plotted against him planning every step
with astuteness, " My plan can't fail! " I told myself...
Joey came running to me as a runner in a marathon,"
" Where did you get those Fila sneakers and Perry America jacket? "
" My dad bought me those...he wanted to reward for my good grades! "
" You cheating, bastard...if it weren't for me, you would fail them all! "
" We are supposed to give the money back to those poor kids! "
I shouted with a vexed voice...but he replied laughing, " No, I never will, punk! "
It was a week before graduation, we took the final test,
how much I wanted Joey to feel the stamina of my wrist
by remembering what he did with the stolen money!
The air in the classroom was as solemn as a church's silence,
Joey sat next to me and copied the answers as I checked them them in each box.
" Fool, you are going to fail this test...this is my revenge! " I uttered...
" What was that? " The wrong answer? " He asked me without malice.
" Yes, change it to All Of The Above " I answered confidentially.
Many more wrong answers I gave him until I put my pencil down and sighed.
" Thanks, Andy for the answers...I hate summer school: you are simply the best! "
I crave for peace and love
I crave for peace and love
Not chaos and destruction
Not chaos and destruction
I need construction...
I need help...God, I want help...
I'm ushed in the margins
My ideas thrown into a million garbins
People have fins
And I have scales
They don't see unique...
They only see a glassless geek
They seek not His TRUTH...
They only look after lies...
And their fantasy goodbyes
End the beginning of the wicked times...
Let time unwind for a time...
The spotlight shouldn't always be on you
It should be on Him...Jesus...Mary...David...
James...Jonah...Goliath...and all of the above
Learning lessons isn't easy...
But, God's answers surely are there
I want to be set free like a Jerusalem bug so freely...
Gleely...gaily...frankly,
I wish I wasn't me...
But I am...me...
So...what?
How do you identify yourself to others,
Do you use an alias,
Hide behind a group,
Or rely on past exploits,
Even the reputation of your brother or sister,
Or an obscure relationship with, you know who,
Do you even use shock value for an identity tag.
Do you see yourself as an individual,
Or a follower of,
Maybe you identify as belonging to a particular family,
Or sexual orientation,
Even political persuasion.
I try not to identify you in as any of the above,
To me you are none of the above,
Yet all, of the above and more,
To define who you are,
As only one of the above makes me feel a little sad.
As I see you as a unique individual,
Capable of great things,
If you truly let me know you,
I will see you dressed in a suit of many colors,
And bear witness to your many talents,
That no other can replicate.
So, I ask again,
How do you identify yourself.
Imagine a world without any poor,
no middle class or richest of the elite anymore,
no unemployment, no homeless, no crime or poverty,
and no more wars or politics, no currency yet no scarcity.
a world where everyone is provided everything they need,
without a price tag, absolutely free,
because this is a world that doesn't have any use for currency.
Money does not exist in a Resource Based Economy,
whereupon all of the world's resources are managed intelligently,
and distributed to everybody globally efficiently,
And We Can Do That Today With Our Present Technology.
Imagine a world full of mega machines equipped with A I technology,
performing all those laborious jobs worked tirelessly and dangerously.
Imagine a world where the only work you do,
is not a job, it's whatever it is that you passionately choose,
because this is a world where a higher education is open to everyone,
absolutely free, no student loans, no tuition.
regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, life choice or religion,
Imagine a world without a single self-serving politician.
Computers can very easily govern a unified global government.
Imagine a world completely war and crime free,
with no need for any military, prisons or police.
There's no need for crime or war, when all are provided all they need.
Most important, imagine a world in perfect harmony,
with nature and all of our most greatest technologies.
No more pollution, no global warming, earth's restoration entirely.
If you can imagine all of the above as an attainable reality,
then know this above all else please;
In only ten years, Ten Years Only,
such a world can be attained with the proper steps.
Your first step at getting there is to thoroughly research,

Beyond Politics, Poverty and War
Love? Of love I do not know, only dreams.
I know of pleasure, gentle caresses
longing looks as your partner undresses,
but is love shared only through soft moonbeams?
Is love ever what we dream it to be,
passion unabashed and fervently shared,
or turbid emotions leaving us scared?
Perhaps it is as plain, for me, as the
ardent reverence for beauty and life,
knowing excitement when your child's face beams
or simple pleasures of sharing sweet dreams,
and never keeping your anger or strife.
Perhaps in truth it's all of the above,
passion, purity, pleasure it's all love.

where do you go for the truth
if you don't believe what they're telling you
wearing shades over their eyes
so you don't see the lies
false prophets in present times
i'm not sure they even know
everything they're being told
is a far stretch from the truth
would things really change if they knew
satan has a hold of you
in this topsy turvy world
it's hard to believe a single word
time after time, after time, after time
it's the blind leading the blind
spoke of in the end times
makes it really hard to trust
any of these and all of the above
in today's world all you will find
is lies upon lies, upon lies, upon lies
when will that truth you realize
I keep seeing all the crazy nonsense going on from all sides in the world today and don't know who to believe anymore...
Which always leads me back to The Way, The Truth, and The Life which is Jesus Christ. Who puts my heart at ease.
Violet Haze (Sequel to The Raven)
You twirl your hair like Death indeed,
And like to sit back and watch my poems bleed.
My love and sorrow, all for you,
You know I never slink out of the blue.
But now I wonder all along,
If Death is actually you, my dear.
And who am I to shed a tear?
But I still bury you in song.
Between the lines of a poem, my dear.
For until we see it crystal clear,
I cannot tell what’s right and wrong.
My world falls into the void, my dear.
I wonder if we’ll ever become
Friends or lovers or family, it’s all a mystery
My love.
But ultimately, I think we’d be
All of the above.
So sail to sea in a ship, my dear.
Sail away from my greatest fear.
That you will lose *yourself* in the tide,
My love,
Forced to drown with a sudden shove.
It comes out of the blue, my dear.
And I cannot save you, this I fear.
You have to leave this ship, my dear,
You have to leave ‘your love.’
Behind to drown in your place, my dear.
I see your heart above
As your ‘love’ steers away from
The open bay.
And as I fly o’er the sky above,
I cannot save you again, my love,
You’re sunk beneath the sea.
And your ‘love’ sails away, my dear,
With a boisterous, monstrous glee.
But he cannot begin to see, my dove,
Your flight with me and stars.
As we escape this world.
It’s always you and me.
So which do you think will it be, my dear?
On Jupiter or on Mars?
Light and dark danced hand in hand, over the sea and across the land,
as one stopped sharp to stop and stare , they pointed to nothing over there.
Nothing soon joined in all the fun,
dancing and singing at what had begun.
Light spoke out as if to say , that everywhere was coming and also next day.
What a strange thing to see and even stranger to hear the wonders of nature were being sincere,
flying , running and having such fun , summoning the winds, and the winds would come.
Tomorrow was happy , that he was allowed to forget the time and join the crowd,
as rain was welcomed by all that were there , he gave a lightning storm they all could share.
Every direction eventually came , to the sound of applause and the call of her name.
Danger and safe had a close run thing ,
as all of the above started to sing,
"this is the day when all is good we are glad it happened we are sure it could" .
