Just the other day I read an article explaining

Back in 1335, and I was just astonished 
to learn the race to do so actually...

This Body I'M In
Being an empath has its ups and downs…
Being an empath has its smiles and frowns…
I just know when people are talking behind my back…I am but a horribly lonesome shack
It’s sad that family and friends...

Premium Member Inside V Outside Strategies
When Donald Trump
ran against very Presidential Obama,
that he did not look
or sound like a win/win public sector leader,
or even commit to expanding healthy democracy,
worked well for him.

His favorite public relations strategy
is to win first place...

Viz hitting yours truly,
when yokel egghead doth jinx

Unstable Witch
Stalking someone life
Lurking digging 
Collecting info
On a total stranger 
rage mad with her
wishing death on her
Chanting spells over her 
Pictures,
Wake up obsessing
Envy of her beauty 
Envy of her youth

Wealthy in the world
Heart full of poverty...

Unfortunate
It's unfortunate that we keep ending up in the same place
Different trials come about and we end with the same face
It's quite evident the statues of our being can relate
I'm a duel quite unnatural is...

Two Titans
Yo,
I got two titans,
They be fightin' and rightin' wrongs on the sharp curves of Nashville,
Equipped with expressive brakes,
I mean straight screamin',
Irate with hubcaps from 1993, for all to see, 
They gaze and wonda?
Why one wheel...

Premium Member The Abyss
Beyond the known likes the unknown; 
That, darkened abyss where, 
nothing seem real until it’s experienced.
Tomorrow hides there; 
huddled in a black crevice and ready to spring on cue.
Everyone will experience her secrets when, 
she...

Premium Member My Radiator Leaks Or My Exhaust Backfires
Every time I sneeze or cough

Either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfires!

Shouldn't be a big surprise

It's a definite sign we ain't no young chicken no more

When you grunt just putting on your socks

It's the...

Styx
So often, I went out of my way
For others to get their best cut hay
And sadly, 
I became their camouflaged clay
Their only comfy sandy bay
Their sad melodic sway.
No consolation, nothing to admire
Jealousy and insecurity still...

Better Yet
Everyone on earth has purpose
When that monkey doesn't perform
Life becomes a wild circus

You wake up to an alarm clock
Give up your dreams
Must not have felt important
Backfires with a ass kick in high swing

Laziness isn't a...

A War of Words
a trijan refrain

Demagogues fighting in a war
spar to find the liars.
Though it generates some rapport,
toleration backfires.
Demagogues lose in false debate.
Speak up, strive to keep the facts straight,
      demagogues, fight!

Premium Member Advice For the Pain Inflictors
Broken battered angry deranged parents 
Try to break their children at an early age
So they will not be alone in their misery
It works with some, however, with others 
It completely backfires.

They take their pain and...

Cold starting the car on a crisp autumn morning
my Dad wasn't the happiest bloke,
put antifreeze in it, ran the engine, ten minutes
and then he could pull out the choke.
On his pale blue Austin the locks...

Premium Member The Beacon Beckons
Does a banished beacon beckon?
But of course all beacons beckon
But only briefly if not brightly
Though never as boldly as the baritone
Before balancing bagpipes blowing ballads
But it’s got backbone and backfires
Unlike the babbling bellow of a...

Fifty Frames a Second
Farewell to the order, cried in depth, 
A surface skimmed flat stone, 
For sure the past drinks slower breath, 
Cold-cocked and slow deflating; 
When the tyres kiss the steely rims 
And wrecks replete with rusted...

"i Love You"
I thought it was real,
But yet it was fake,
Oh this love felt so real.
But it was just too late.

Why do people play this,
Like a game, or joke,
But yet all along,
The Joke was me.

I should of...

Premium Member Cannot Understand Cruelty
I rarely hate, because it always backfires on me.
Causes me to feel anxious, stressed, sad.
But I do hate hurting; when people are cruel
to each other, to animals, to our planet.
Cruelty is something that I cannot...
