A Gangster's Cry

 A Gangster's Cry

Everyday gangs loses one of their own, all for the selfish intent of wanting the throne.
Battle after battle, can't rest easy at night, blood stained hands after a deadly fight.
Wondering if tomorrow is gonna be a better day, all he can do is kneel down and pray.
It seems that a gangster's life is fun from an outsider's view, if only they can last one day in his shoe.
On the run from the cops for stealing a dime, oh how he just wants to party and have a good time.
He cries knowing that this isn't the life he longed for, just a family to love admire and adore.
Pills to make painful memories disappear, but these memories just keep on living and reappear.
Calls from the boss and long chats over the phone, he becomes mentally unstable and cannot bare it alone.
From being weak to a strong member of a gang, to a gun to his head and an aftermath of a loud bang.
This is the life of a gangster, don't waste your time with all this trauma.
Live a honest and happy life with friends and family.
A message from a guy who is now free from his misery.

Premium Member Three Men and a River

Three men went hiking one day
Arriving at a raging river in play
To each other "hey boss
How the hell do we cross
Get on your knees, we have to pray"

So the first one gets down on his knees
"Please lord, help me to cross it please"
Giving him strong arms, strong legs
Never let it be said
Nearly drowning, he now crosses in freeze 

So the second who now stands on the bank
Trying to cross, he now throws a blank
To his lord he now asks
"A canoe for my task"
Nearly capsizing he crosses with thanks

So the third asks for intelligence
For his lord to make him see sense
Into a woman he's turned
Read the map she's now learned
Up river, there's a bridge there thence

Premium Member Posting a Dramatic Dilemma

Almost  

Decided to make that post  

A tweet  

That I thought would put on the heat  

Entire world could read it   

Some may say to me ‘beat it’  

Wanted to get things off my chest  

Since my blood pressure it did test  

Almost I did this vengeful act  

Based on an opinion feeling and not fact  

Resulting in a meeting where the boss would give me the sack  

I said I almost did something like that  

Confessing to being a trolling rat  

Instead, I caught myself as I sat  

And cleared my mind  

Decided to decline  

Making that post  

To the social media ghost  

And in the end  

No need to defend  

My keyboard used instead of a pen  
Work I deleted not pressing the button send  

So, I will honor my duties of formal host  

Giving the award winner the special toast  

No telling them what I honestly felt  

As they fill their money belt   

Tightened in a way  

Where it would stay  

Silent and quiet  

Not stirring any tabloid circus riot  

Am I committing a crime worthy of an arrest?  

Fibbing about whom was the actual best  

In a situation that truly is a mess  

Ready to confess  

Unless  

I went through  

With what I was going to do  

Almost  

Post  

About why I did not want to be the tuxedo wearing entertaining host

Premium Member The Boss Is Coming To School Today

The boss is coming to school today.
Hooray hooray hooray hooray
I used to like him a bunch, I really did.
But this year he’s fallen into quite a skid.

Being a school counselor has challenges enough.
But being assigned to two schools is more than tough.
My health is going down, my energy depleted.
I am not happy to see him, blaming him as I’m defeated.

The boss is coming to school today
I might want to stay at home, I truly might.
The boss is coming to school today.
I do not want to see him, things are not all right.

Being a school counselor has paperwork galore.
I hate paperwork; it is something I deplore.
I never had to do this double work before.
He who assigned me this, I’d like to wipe up with the floor.

The Lies Hidden In the Truth

The lies hidden in the truth
What could be worst 
When truthful kindness shared
brings Bitter ness 
What could be better 
To be truthful 
To live in poverty 
Or live by fasle lies
To achieve an easy 
Material success 
So when i listen to 
The boss 
How sweet his tongue 
Rolls
With his opinion
I could hear the lies
Hidden in his truth

The lies hidden in the truth
Everyone has an opinion 
And there lies there truth
Despite even when it wrong 
Is ovious humans cant live 
Without dreams 
Too many goals everywhere 
So tomany challenges is 
Aline with reaching our goals
So when i listen to the truth 
Nowadays 
I hear too many lies 
Hidden in the truth 
Cos humans are not patience 
Anymore 
As is easy to lie 
Than say the truth
So lies are always todays 
Popular truths everywhere 

The lies hidden in the truth 
Too many minds are in needs
So Too many souls are desperate 
Desperate to reach a goal 
Is same every where 
This never ending desire
Where hopes are high or low
Humans still never will stop
This circle life 
That always brings us close
To a hard way 
So we are out of patience 
Searching for a way out of our
Ugly reality 
Is been never an easy life anymore 
Not since we realise in so many believes 
we have known
Lies too many 
Lies hidden in the truth

Premium Member A Smooth Day Until

Where is your costume?  This question comes from my boss, who is dressed like a mouse
With a cookie.
Best of all, she has brought us all cookies.
I have already eaten mine, and it was scrumptious.
I do not say I did not think it was fair for teachers and the principal to dress up when children cannot
Today, Halloween, so I do not say anything, lamely pointing to my zebra costume as she is my principal.
Why are you not wearing it? The Mouse with the Cookie queries.
That is easy.
I have a very serious talk coming up in three minutes with the fifth graders about anti-bullying
And Title IX law.
The law that says bullying and discrimination are against the law.
So I have a great out.
I explain this.
Understood.
The day runs smoothly until I explain Title IX law and a fifth grader asks me, “Why can
The President bully people and make fun of them if it is against the law?”
So much for a smoothly-run day.

For Mrs Maha

He fell in love with the blue arching
He fell in love with his hair standing on end
He fell in love with the power
And he fell in love with you.
He never chose to leave, but his job
Took him away.
Every day he risked his life,
Never making a mistake.
He went out in the rain,
And always came home.
He went out in the snow,
And always came home.
He went out in the lightning, sleet
and storms, and always came home.
On a routine day, with the sun shining,
the clouds rolling by, and the shift
almost over, he didn’t make it home.
There is no rhyme or reason, it was his time to go.
But he didn’t chose to leave you.
Questions remain unanswered,
Prayers remain unheard,
How’s and whys linger in the air
No one there to respond.
A mistake? A Miscue? A Slip? A Fall?
A death, never to come home again.
His last thoughts were of you,
I’m sure, and little ones left behind.
But he never chose to leave you.
Someway, somehow, someone, somethng
took him from you.
Somewhere, sometime, it will be easier
To let him go, knowing
He didn’t chose to leave you.
His friends will come calling
to explain his love of the power.
His coworkers will stop by
To explain the love of hair standing on end.
His boss will call on you
To explain how well he handled the blue arcing.
But no one will explain
Why he left you.
Remember him as he was, strong
Dependable, your lover, your friend.
Remember him as he was, kind, gentle
A loving father to those kids.
Remember him as he was, dedicated,
Driven, a worker whose career was cut short.
Remember
He didn’t chose to leave you.

A Father's Quiet Strength

Often times referred to as the head of the house,
We have no say unless the boss has her say first.
Yet in this gentle dance of love and order,
A father stands with steady, patient grace.

Role model for growing successors,
He walks the path so they may follow true.
A source of diffused wisdom with the Lord's help,
He offers guidance born of faith and trial.

Daughter's favorite person,
Whose arms bring comfort, whose words bring light.
Son's favorite emulator,
Whose steps they watch and seek to match with might.

Placed by God as the nucleus of the family,
He holds the center with humble, quiet power.
Through laughter shared and burdens gently borne,
He reflects the Father's endless, steadfast love.

On this day we honor you, dear fathers near and far,
For every sacrifice made in silence,
For every prayer whispered in the dark,
For every lesson wrapped in daily care.

May the Lord who placed you in this sacred role
Fill your heart with peace and joy untold.
For in your strength, we see His hand at work,
A blessing to your home, a gift to this world.

Happy Father's Day.

Premium Member I'M Just a Lost Singing Elf- -

Man I should have learned astrology the reading of the universe, stars, moon dew on the ground
Now I’m lost and my cell phone won’t give me no signal
I just an elf
And I’m just a wondering/wandering down these snow covered streets
Not having a clue where’s is the directions North, South, West or East
Not if the horizon line is in the middle
And I wind up in the same little city
What town is town, where’s my map where is East and where is West
I’m so just depressed, all that’s left I guess is to chuckle and giggle and sing this little ditty
While I’m lost and feeling so silly

I sing...

O, I fell out the back of the shed, I’ve lost my way
I’m lost and cold
I want to go home
Where’s the boss, Santa’s not lost
He’s flying somewhere in the atmosphere
I’m lost and cold
I want to go home
My ride is gone, I’m all alone
My cell phone signal, no longer comin
What’s with google maps 
Guess I just keep walking these laps O
I’m lost and cold
I want to go home
Where’s the boss, Santa’s not lost
He’s flying somewhere in the atmosphere
I’m lost and cold
I want to go home
I fell off the back of Santa’s sleigh
I didn’t wanna come out in the cold anyway”



 
This kind citizen comes and warms me
With a hot cup of hot-tea
Puts me in his wagon and takes me to his home
Walks He eventually helps you locate Santa
over to the land-line dials the phone
The kind man says what the matter 
He eventually helps me locate Santa.

Premium Member We Do Not Generalize All Whites Or All Blacks

My best friend is one color, I am another.
We are soul sisters, cousins, we love each other.
We are treated differently by people who do not know us at all.
But judge us on skin color, which is so ignorant, it’s small.

She tells me she has to warn young men to be careful and clean.
They will be stopped for stuff others might have never even seen.
She tells me that her students are afraid of the police.
They have seen what some will do, and it is not keep the peace.

Told her about a disappointment I had once, when I really wanted a job.
Boss chose man with specific skin color, to prove she was not a snob.
I had done this job as a volunteer for about twenty-eight hours a week.
They hired the other person, who kept my job for barely a week.

My best friend and I have some lessons and stories to tell.
We know each other beautifully, soul cousins, we know each other well.
We do not generalize “all whites or all blacks”
Because we are best friends, and have each other’s backs.
