Cliche and Catch Phrase Party

Once in a blue moon I have been told
The cliché’s clan gets together with the Catch Phrase posy

If I have told you once I have told you a thousand times this story or are you the last one to know?

Well, it all started for no rhyme or reason but you could see the writing on the wall.

Rat Race and horsing around would be in charge of the children’s activities for the day.
 While crazy as a loon and Wacky Tobacky would take care of the entertainment.
Ice Queen would be the bartender for the night and Wall Flower would play the music.
Requests were already pouring in from the peanut gallery. 
Young whipper Snapper like to hear a country song called one step forward and two steps back
And Jonny come lately wanted to hear a rock song called Chip off the old block.
Class clown always wanting to be the center of attention got drunk and started dancing
On the picnic tables. 
 Simon Says and Mother May I where there to tell everyone what to do and where to sit.
 This would be a catered event so One sandwich short of a picnic was hired to feed this Motley crew.
On the menu was Fish out of Water served with two peas in a pod and for dessert The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree Al- a- mode.
Everybody was having a great time until the trouble makers showed up.
One for the road and Three sheets to the wind where known for starting drunken brawls.
The worst thing was they brought their 3 grown sons Hammered, sloshed and pickled.
If I only knew then what I know now left early. She had a feeling there would be trouble.
Penny for your thoughts would be collecting the raffle ticket money and No time like the present would be handing out the prizes.
Liar Liar Pants on fire and Cry me a river were sore losers and always made a scene if they lost.
It will be a cold day in hell didn’t want to go so he sent his wife Heaven to Betsy.
Too much of a good thing got sick and ended up taking the bus# Catch22 home.
Well, nothing lasts forever was the last song of the night and Turn out the lights the party’s over security guard company showed everyone the door.
The end.

Treasures Awoken

I wear my heart upon my sleeve
and hold it high so now i bleed
I can't believe I'm hearing this
I wonder why I am so pissed
I can't explain all of the pain
I think i'm going quite insane
the reason is that i'm so mad
I just can't stand to be so glad
I cry alone in darker caves
chemical burns rearrange my face
I wanted to believe in you
but all I got was this lousy t shirt
cry me a river and now make it hurt
where are you now I think i'm stumped
I lifted my pain onto the bed 
I cried out softly in my head
leave me now I cry and bleed
make me see all things I need
I think of you, the one true love
I think of all of the things above
How dare you do the death on me
I drive myself so crazily
Like it now...like it now
like it now...Like me
How dare you go into the fray
the void I make will make you stray
leave all the blood upon my floor
I think of all the things in store
Left and strutted I am so blunt
I make you want and want and want
I think of all the things you've done
How dare you talk to me at once
Like me for me I am a dream
how dare you break me into streams
I am a golden beam of course
I started to become your source
like a desire that's left unsaid
I say it once and make you glad
I am fulfilled and so i'm sure
when you become me I'll make you soar
Treasure and gifts I've left on your porch
defy me and see what i'll do ..I will scorch
The earth and the heavens begin to believe me
I swallow the oceans and make you deceive me
leave me and cancel all fates and all wrongdoings
all of the followings all of the strongholds
barred none I withhold
I think only of death
once again I am cold and Ice frozen and stealthed
I think what I wanted to do with the ice pick
I've fallen and fallen for you I do really think
I know I have tried to withhold all emotion
all devotion and stationed guards at my hearts door
I think I have fallen and yet I deplore
I am questionable,
left unspoken so sensational
Not very rational but very satanical
Like a bible's verse tyrannical
I discover the true nature of the universe
I then guide you to a pure rational scent of a woman's curse.

Lynn Swan

one in twain yet marked on a blotted page clearly intact through the surface
crimes of passion stirring inside my brutal egg shelled head summon the dead
each of us goes through things another door bell tends to ring fat lady sings you see
Misery is coming apart at the seams the refrigerator is empty we are living on ample time 

Cherish those days we used to frolic in a haze like a mouse stuck in its maze so behave
these are desolate times yet we settle for ill but faded rhymes the casualties are enormous
for a stated cause that's just plain atrocious there's a thrill in us all stand up ten feet all
Give me shelter give me peace stand in its relief head down to my feet stand to repeat

Is it safe to say that their is a way leave this cup of poison learn to rejoice in some dream
Cry me a river stand and deliver yet donn't call me late for dinner I'm still a giver
lines being drawn in the sand when to fully understand you can't keep sticking it to the man
Each human heart there's an opened door willing to be explored awe so much more

Look to the orphans and widows in their affliction go to a soup kitchen stand forgiving
There's so much we can do if we put our mind to it there's nothing to it Pharoah blew it
listen before you speak stand tall and teach grow fondly in the notion of grace
Spread out upon my Peyton Place long for a mistake to seal our fate just have to wait

We have fallen on tough times someone needs to break the mends it all depends
lay hold of your brother give them love to discover set in order fond memories
mix up the human chemistry choose instead to reach toward your dynasty nothing phony
got words that rhyme that words to heal someone said its no big deal but who are they 

One day at a time sweet Jesus everybody needs us time is going by faster blaster
Remember the old boom box boogy down with the socks like the famed Scott Lerock
we shall stand on top never the bottom like the lonely days of Sodom keep your hats on
like Lynn Swan can't we ever get along and this is the end of this song

scar struck AGAIN

Damn these feelings of stress, interlacing impulsive dreams of disgrace 
Can it all be over soon? Maybe, the hopes drowned in the mere dust of time
Oh, long lost lamb, I am so in need of your easing, pleasing grace 
I will never let you down, even if I frown my  usual frown in my youthful prime

Sulking in gluttonous grief
I need your tearless relief
Don’t mind my insanity mess…
I need your fearless happiness

Scar struck again by my mildish, childish fears
Tear away the tears from my innocent eyes
Are you ready to free-fall throughout the years?
Tears collide anyways and you utter your lies

Your beautifully carved lies 
Your crooked, nestled lullabies…
You’re also scar struck by fear
I knew you’d come home since you were in a midlife crisis since yesterday, my dear

Sulking in gluttonous grief
I need your tearless relief
Don’t mind my insanity mess…
I need your fearless happiness

Scar struck again by my mildish, childish fears
Tear away the tears from my innocent eyes
Are you ready to free-fall throughout the years?
Tears collide anyways and you utter your lies

Cry me a lake, cry me a river, cry me an ocean, cry me a sea
Life’s what you make of it, my lone lover of mine of such squalid misery
I know you’re in pain, but you don’t have to always bring me down
Because I want to lift from the lows and ascend from this forlorn town

Scar struck again by my mildish, childish fears
Tear away the tears from my innocent eyes
Are you ready to free-fall throughout the years?
Tears collide anyways and you utter your lies

Scar struck again by my mildish, childish fears
Tear away the tears from my innocent eyes
Are you ready to free-fall throughout the years?
Tears collide anyways and you utter your lies

Sulking in gluttonous grief
I need your tearless relief
Even if this is a temporarily life to live before I die, 
Frankly and lately, I don’t give…not going to lie

Swollen eyes trickle of tears

                                        Swells of pride hence denied

                                     Cry me mo tears shed me mo light

                                               Shots raining out

                                      Nowhere to run nowhere to hide

                                              Ballistically speaking 

                                           Blown away by projectiles

                                              Plunged deep within

                                         Multiplying seeds of corruption

                                                 seeds of death

                                              Whom do we trust 

                                            whom do we look up to
   
                                                   LAPD ,NYPD

                                          Or perhaps Mayberry RFD

                                      No way Jose so she'd me mo light

                                          True true no doubt no doubt

                                           Guns and roses is the tune

                                           Let the procession begin

                                             All Mourners expected

                                               the bugle sounds

                                                   Time is here 

                                                    So stand up

                                              Led the tabernacle in

                                     Sing sing a song sing sing Mo blues 

                                          Cry me a river cry me a river

                                                 Cry me a river ...

                                                      over you


Cry Me a River

Cry to your mother as she is the only one

That will listen to your tears of how things are run

How can we expect to move on

When we live in the past of how it was done

Get over it my friend before it resorts to guns

Your ignorance of living in the past 

Is what is killing your son

How can you expect the next generation to let go

If you hold on, be a bigger man so now show

Stop blaming our ancestors actions on us

If it were up to me I would rewrite history with lust

And have it shift so we can all be free

But this is not a land of cotton candy

We cant eat the houses made from sugar

But I can save the world from your blind hatred towards her

So stop being a bigot when saying "release me"

When you have not released yourself from history

Every race and religion has served their time

To the dictators and rulers of insane prime

We have all died and were punished for a crime

That we did not commit just based on our backround

So again stop spreading more hate based on this

We are all brothers in retrospect when you remove your hiss

For a snake is what you are untl you realize your bliss

I feel sorry for you you blind f$ck, the bus you just missed

Was the one towards freedom but your to busy

Weaving your own dismiss............

Stupid reverse racist bastard, cry me a river.......

Dont raise your child to hate me cause of my ancestors actions

What you are doing is the reverse of the factions

Put it place in this land of free

But I am sure with your bigotry you disagree

Cry me a river.......

Then drown in it.......

Premium Member Spots and Inklings

I have reviewed my spots and inklings 
measuring each.
solidified my moment inside breach 
of cosmic tare

said farewell to sanity and all the hosts I fare
given lives I’ve liven for the ghosts 
of my regret
and yet

please my dearest give to me, one more cigarette 
before the fold
before we’re told there is no final gift.

I cannot shift the moment of our loss
it is the drape we wear within the care and toss 
of our own life

we are the one
we alone

must chew the raggedness of every bone and morsel given
hanging thread; banging road 
dribbles, snivels, ache and cry, 
one day which will dry.

Though we try 
to understand the very small or hugely grand
they are but very aspects of our soul

mirrored life of pain and joy for every girl and boy
broken toy, maligned, and we must find 
the wealth behind 

the gift
Momentary shift and xhit
between the between, with half-stepped, measured blasting;
no pirouetted dancer masking, 
ballerinas bursting with confectionary bubble.

troubling us for spare change, 
attention in the rubble

paupering our paper cups with cuts of customer’s change
outside our edifice big and strange 
cold and rained upon.

c’mon.

cry me a river
stand me out and cut me down and shiver
take your best shot, man

cause here I am

here I am

until I am no longer here.

none could love you more than I
proof escapes my very eye
and with it all of my
unreleased reach

wish the touch of Heaven’s Beach
love of everything and all

with words between us 
sharing; while staring at 
 
each unanswered call.

Autumn Falling

cry me a river
give me an indian giver,maybe i can fix him
think of the thought,the store you bought could feed a thousand towns
with the food you leave lying around. you could do art in the world,
marry a pretty girl to the turn of food she do marry,even carry in her eyes.
its the prize and the dice is thrown?this much we know,we can keep two,you and 
the truth,when you marry it we do.i know of the earth turn and hunger 
burning,sure i was fit for command to every man who had a plan.he would look in 
my eyes and size me up,but he didnt think of the crux of the theft of dinner and 
whats left.its hard in the middle class to be that picture in the mind,when i find 
candy bars dancing in my thoughts when i rest.chest full of air and thats what you 
get to eat. when we seen this girl on second street,of course i was too tired and 
hungry to pursue her,to my hunger peanut butter and jelly will never do her,so i 
just willed her to happen and despite the laughing in my mind,i find were still 
friends,me and her,but there was no word of sex or even second best,it was 
less,just friends.to the end i go,i worked and held a job,kept my room a slob,but it 
was prop up and starvation,like the middle class across this nation.it takes em 
no time to help,to release us from our hell.then,bask in the glow and let me know 
how a ferrarri goes or my favorite group has a Cd on the loose.wait till im fed and 
have my own bed then tell me you need me at your show or in iraq,then ill find the 
facts do meet.give relief on summer street.

Never Let You Go

I have never met a boy like you
You say you never met a girl like me 
But yet we'er not together
That makes no sense to me
What do you see in her that I do not possess?
But I don't have you so it must be something she does best 

Something so likable you can't let her go
I understand, that's just how I feel about you
You'll never know how much I love you it's just without words
It stands along in the dark trying to find the light but it always get's killed by the fight 
Why me? I ask
I just don't know
Have you ever loved me?
Have you?
No?

Tell me the truth don't tell me no lies
My heart has been broken one to many times
But why not make it broke again but this time by you
But it's to late it already has
I'll never be with you
You'll never be with me
Even though these words hurt they are very true indeed
I envy her so much
Your like the cake I can not touch.

Yes, I am along
For you have done it,
You left me bare with a care
I'll always love you but you'll never understand
I leave you with all that I've said
Do not wonder what it means
Just cry me a river and leave!

I wished to be your lover
But you did not wish to love
You gave me presents but they where not for me but, for her
So take them to her and rain on her your love cause I am not worth dreaming of
And even thought this poem is coming to a end
In my heart it has just began
Over and over like a tape recorder you'll always be playing in my heart
But you could not let her go so now it's time to part.

Give me a deal

Cooking up a meal,
Give a deal,
Hit the reel keep spinning...
Flip it and win,
Feel the rush just for a minute.

Inhale, I prevail 
I want the diamonds that glisten.
Talking to this toxic girl,
But I got no feelings.
I burn bridges sometimes,
'Cause I don’t like they children.

Tryna blemish my image,
I drive these hoes to a frenzy.
Tryna gaslight me
I talk to the stove in the kitchen.

Cry me a river,
You don't mean it,
You teaming with demons.
All these hoes around me,
They just part the streets.

Dodged a wreck, I.T. 
Yeah, I’m him with the TEC.
Common sense
You get in what you put in, boy I’m a threat.

Way too G, keep it pushing,
Breaking O’s off a P.
 with me? Nah, 
I’m busy Mess with me pushin’ P, 
mess with me.
Nah I’m busy breaking Os off a P

I been tryna win for real,
The devil is real,
But I ain't for the taking.
Wanna feel alive? Pop a pill.

There's a thin line when you realize,
You met with divinity.
It was crystal clear,
I was cracking codes like Da Vinci.

I ain't rich,
I will never switch sides for a .
Boy, these hundreds made me humble
Out the mud, leave no crumb.

Tryna creep late night,
Pop trunk on some trouble.
Wanna get to heaven?
All these demons, I gotta rumble.

Seen this smile? Picked it up I won’t fumble.
And I ain’t calling the wrong name, baby don’t call me Usher.
Hate to burst your bubble, shorty,
But I ain’t no sucker.
