Premium Member Spiritually Cited Physically Blinded

My head is the computer it's the functioning of my being
Getting my mind's eye I see spiritually I'm free
With my eyes I hear the surrounding environment
The world around me is my soundstage

With my ears I see the vibrating trembles shadows of the dark are light
Eyelids closed the shadows become light yet they're dark I can see through my ears
With my nose I taste the vibrant effervescent smells of substances
My mouth reaches out for Honey's nectar lavender linen fragrances

Even more are my defenses
I salivate with laughter as I pray in my defenses
Pandemonium moratorium Spirit woos My flesh
Hellbound desires heavenly Father put my spirit to rest
For I am spiritually cited physically blinded

Premium Member Levi Celerio

From the Pearl of the Orient
A name was born without dent
A laureate in reticence
A paradigm beyond silence

Composer, poet and lyricist
Over four thousand songs on his list
Written and delivered so crisp
Offered to his countrymen without wisp

Love songs cited and laid for all
Men and women of good values enthrall
From the hearts vibrate with gentleness
Depths of melody blossom in tenderness

Christmas songs of the nation so immortal
Through the decades played and resonate with pedal
Pedals of piano, harmonica and instruments of love
Love for countless people cuddled in the breasts of dove

Sentiments of nationalism in his heart
Heart of a humble man from all hearts never depart
Simple life he lived with great philosophy in hand
Principles of equality and love for country so grand

Musician of leafs, so astounding in his wits
Talent beyond compare will never die in bits
His name is a pillar in the world of music
Forever a name so noble, anyone can sing with a lyric

The Polite Society

He cried and cried when he had found the Three Penny Opera
was performed to insult his grandfather. "they smiled and treated me kind, all the time insulting me. His grandfather too was insulted as the playwriter rewrote the book using his grandfathers image. He replaced most issues of condoning prostitution with racial overtures and used prostitution as remedy for ailment.
thus in the opera the older men became fathers to brides who would inherit there ailing fathers wealth.This was made into a practise that allowed the
churches to unite against the coupling of certain fellows and their thirtish brides. Always something, never a natural ending for those
they wish to demonize. They made mention of a professor willing to teach a bunch of people, music so that they could form an orchestra, these men were challenged by church women who cited the practice as evil, due to them not being able to read music. The fact is that the mans grandfather never had alot of issues in his life, he waited until he was in his sixties to father a child. He died when his son was Nineteen. His moither was 42. She had been a wild woman before marrage and when her husband died, the women who knew her exaggerated truths to gain the interest and audeince of people. They didn't use the fame positivley instead it was enough to cause member of the town to create a new town elsewhere.

Number One On the Chain

HER TALENTS CREATED BARRIERS
FOR ALL OF THOSE WHO WISHED TO REPLACE HER
SOME CITED, THEIR BELEIFS INSTEAD OF SPEAKING
OF HER TALENTS. THE INCREASED COMPETIVE FEELINGS
AMONG THESE PERSONS, SOILED EACH OTHERS EGO
AND DID NOTHING TO THE POSITION THAT THE TALENTED
WOMAN HELD, AND STILL HOLDS.
ONE SAID THAT NIGHTS ARE SPENT SAYING HER NAME
AND SPEAKING IT, TO THE LEVEL OF GOD!
ONE DAMNED HER AND PLACED A CURSE ON HER
 AND HER FREINDS, SAYING THAT ALL OF THEIR CO-SORTING
AND REHERSTING MADE HER MORE WISE TO 
THE NEEDS OF THOSE WHO HAD PLACED HER ABOVE THE REST
BUT WE HEARD THE DIFFERANCE IN THE PITCHES, AND THE STREAMLINED EXCHANGES
BETWEEN HER AND WHO EVER SHE PARTNERED WITH,
"YET THE LION ROARS: AND ALL THOSE IN THE KINGDOM, WISHES TO
KNOW WHO HE SHALL EAT!"

I heard you say my child would never

the fruit flies like

while the grapes

i never said she

sold the mortgage

                 to the pony

past the pantry

               collapsed on the milkman


she nevered

Watashi Yoku........ Complained about his life. It gave him words often angring him into comparision. His father had left him with his five siblings. His mother raised them. But his father sometimes would appear only to disapear. As Watashi got older  he became angry over his Mother beleiving his father was a good person. He never thought of her compairing the leadership between the two. He never knew when people spoke of them it was in comparision to his father. This lead him to feel out done and overwhelmed. He cited that he had missed 2 homecomings and two proms and he didn't knew how to datte, thinking of the value of spending money on a women who would altermittly refuse him. Once his mother said he was just like his father. He lost all track and scope of things. Someone you don't know and someoone you aren't willing to trust is who she say's I'm just like. He refuses to give us anything, or help us. And she say's I'm just like him,"I have gone broke so my brothers and sisters could go to Prom and homecoming" Our first car after he had graduated was a clunker. Dad came home and everything was going alright then one morning the Basasd Prompt( area right off stage was destroyed) was destrpyed. Demons sow seeds once sprouted the days of harvest is calulated. The day of harvest is determined by the ripeness and maturaty level of the crop. If the weather is fair to perfect we can gather. If it's not we watch and wait. Due to the need of pateints and making sence of time we take time to do things so that we can have time to labor and chore. But when that ignorance
of trusting allows you to be part of a lesson. He who wishes to teach often must learn.
There the gusty winds of tommorro shall drintch the morning and all shall freight and  the sun shall dry the wet places that these people shall groove and move to the beat.

The Easter Egg Hunt

KIDS:
Hey, everybody!
Look who is hopping our way --
The Easter Bunny!

EASTER BUNNY:
"Happy Easter, y'all!
Welcome, kids and parents, to
The Easter Egg Hunt.

To see you guys smile
Gives me so much happiness
And joy in my heart.

Remember the rules:
Whoever finds the most eggs
Wins a special prize.

So look carefully.
They're hidden everywhere
So you can't see them.

I'm so egg-cited!
Okay. Now let's hop to it.
Get ready...set....GO!"

This groovy shindig
Went on for forty minutes
And thirty seconds.

When it was over,
The Easter Bunny counted
The eggs that were found.

EASTER BUNNY:
"We have a winner!
But I can't pick just one, so....
EVERYBODY WINS!

And now the cool part!
Here is your special reward:
THE GOLDEN CARROT!"

Some people said, "WHAT?!"
Totally flabbergasted
And really confused.

But the furry hare
Opened the golden carrot
And...a huge surprise!

It's Easter candy
With chocolate covered rabbits
And marshmallow peeps.

And that's no yolk!
This egg-stravaganza rocks!
Best. Easter. Ever!

Damn Divisive Demagogic Derelict

Das Don doth debilitate democracy

Premium Member Art of Constipation

On our first serious date; he grew excited
and I was primed to knock my guy off his feet.
Spending hours on the right dress, all horrid
Till a feathery wardrobe popped from the closet.

Yes! This dress will hit the roof…top-rated;
lined with plumes from neck down mid-thighs.
Upstairs, my mood claimed I must stay decorated
trying latest trends in beauty makeover,
armed with lipsticks, false lashes and gloss shaded.

The long wait made him quite frustrated
so, Mom served cream pie to ease the tension.
Forcing him to nap while I polish a vogue look,
never wore make-up, now I was fully painted.

I stepped down with new face truly elated
he woke up from my “hello”, and trembled.
Gee, I knew the male Richter scale zoomed 8!
Flaunting my hairdo, thick with mousse… inflated.

“I’m sorry, Ted, for being late, you really waited.”
He froze. He croaked, as if he saw an ostrich,
Squeezing his arm to ensure our date well handled!
“But, I can’t go, the burps; errr..the pie,” he cited.
“My tummy‘s acting up; I’m constipated!”
