Long Cut from the same cloth Poems

Date:  September  2050

Damian stood at the front door 
Ushering everybody out to the waiting 
Limousine. "Come on my People 
Be quick about it wifies!"  Sidney
And Saderi were willing to go along
For the...

Under the canopy of the silver crescent light, right before the ripe of night, basking in the mushroom embrace of twinkling stars, listening to crickets’ melancholic lullabies, before temporary death beckoned to make acquaintances, we...

Cut from the same cloth, certainly didn't apply
I'd lived twenty places, was born to improvise
You had one home, parents, sister, two nephews 
Persistance forced my flighty spirit to accept you


Invited to hang with your family...

#You
You said I was childish, never serious , took things simple but what you left out was why I carried myself as such. Truth be told, thats what I resorted to after my aftermath of...

I wasn’t alone, all eyes followed those curves sashaying

Well I just can't decide
 if I wanna live or I'm gonna die
It's hurting like a disease
 and I really need to fly
So I'm searching for a reason
 to give life one more try
But all...

It came in the night
Unannounced and silent
To proclaim 
To torment the very thought 
Of a unitive reality
Strategically  moving 
As though life was nothing more 
Than a jagged piece of ivory
Sliding along a glossy landscape
That's...

In a different time and space she would be sought after
A force to be thus reckoned with,an object not of laughter
Lily knew that she was cut from an unusual cloth
In the melting pot of life...

Am stuck in like a bad habit 
Stuck in like a broken record
Can't shake her off my thoughts even for a bit
My heart and brain are on a split
Like a broken record 

It like pandemonium...

So damn many thoughts
And plots

Oppurtunity knocks
Around the clock

East and West, Biggie and Pac
True legends that will always remain at the top
Never going to be forgot

Trust me no time to stop
Get after that guap

Protect yourself and...

I love you for the love you show me everyday. 
I love you for the way you always go out of your way to make me feel special. 
I love you for the way you...

They say he is cut from a different cloth
Dances to a different drummer
Walks with a steady stride where he goes
Offers all enough respect to earn his
Finds humor in his own foibles as well as yours

Iron Men
Hobbes

We march forward through the darkness,
Our vision fades to black.
Our one-tract minds carry us through,
The next big heart attack.
The mission is set out in stone,
And we will show no fear.
And God's grace be upon...

I'm just an old-fashioned, flannel lumberjack shirt.
My father was some overalls, a farmer of dirt.
I'm a worn out and holey pair of cotton socks,
An unwanted sweater, packed away in a box.

My son's a fancy ascot...

CRAZY QUILT MADNESS

crazy quilt madness,
sewn onto muslin squares.
nothing square, about these cool croppings.
left over scraps become something unique -
beautiful, with buttons and floral encryptions -
forget me - knots.

crazy quilt madness,
my life’s serene lift of lived-in...

What an exquisite treasure you are
rocking my day to sleep
leading it joyfully into night
kissing my ears with tender words
that stir my soul to ask
how could a moment like this
have taken my lifetime to arrive
as I...

Heard this before? “Life is what you make it”

We are the ones that map out our course

The winds of life are not always in our...

Eileen and I are cut from the same cloth
Hopeless romantics we two
Oblivious to life's trials and tribulations
It's love that sees us through

Since the world began, it's the driving force
The reason we exist you and I

Why does it take the unexpected for me to feel connected?
Gods the architect, He designed it, I reflect it. 
Flip the coin of life and death,
One side Emotion the other intellect, 
Human trial and error,...

Bar Steward Town 7
In the town they built pubs and bars and clubs
Before they built the houses to cater for the needs
Of the nutcases and hardmen and their gals
Who inhabited the place for they were...
