he friend me on fb
i have no idea how my ex found me
like a sniffing dog he did
can you imagine that
king of the blood hounds
on my trail
and on my nerves now
after all the pain he put me through
he wants to friend me on his face book page
what am i suppose to do
what would you do
for a long while, i looked at the request
noting the time and date
hoping not, praying not
like the words can come to life and bite me
like a snake
i was scared
i'm not going to lie
i been snake bitten with him before
many, many times
countless times crying myself to sleep
so what's a girl suppose to do
one thing i know
trust me on this
he's not the olive branch type of guy
he doesn't go out on a limb
he's in it for himself
so i couldn't understand the fb request
but you know me
one of many blond airheads of his
and i bet he has many, many
i went to his site anyway
why
i don't know
but they should now cut my fingers off for penance
anyway, anywho, anyfool
i came so close to pressing the accept button
and sending him a message
can you believe that
me airhead trying to reconcile
no he needs to do better than that
yo mama
mama you up in the heavens
listening with big ears of yours
listening to all this
ready to gossip
i know you
i know you
mama get back on your seat
whats a girl suppose to do
funny bunny got bit by a snake
and funny bunny still likes him
men, men, men
they get in your hair
mess it all up
and women miss that
just telling the truth
but don't tell him that
please
mama you having fun up there
please put that voodoo doll away
for now
and please sing to me
in my time of need

what will tomorrow bring
if today brought so much sorrow
that always has me wondering
do i even want to see tomorrow
im tired of all the disappointments
im tired of all the problems we face
im tired of all the unemployment
im tired of all the disgrace
we make no sort of sacrifice
in making everyday a better day
yet we pray for a better life
but we refuse to change our ways
we do have all the power
to bring about a change
yea the choice is ours
we who bares the shame
we can see a brother lying in the street
lookin as if he's about to die
when all he ask for was something to eat
yet we still pass him by
too busy to go out you way
or to go out on a limb
probly worried about someone would say
if they saw you helping him
and those of us too busy living our life
that we cant even give our children a hug
or offer a gentle word of advice
and wonder why they're strung out on drugs
then the fact that we put our trust in people
that tends to lead us astray
doing anything they can and calling it legal
and pushing us to go that way
and that's a few examples of our problems today
yet we hope for a change
but as long as we continue to live this way
then we only have ourselves to blame
Truth be told I’m afraid of your love
For you are deep as blue ocean
As vast as night skies above
Your eyes like magical potions
Chocolate pools waiting for my drool
And I can drown in them as a fool
I guess I feel like a kite in a fight with wind
Being approached by your passion
Which is like a teal tornado
How can what looks so scary be calming
I desire all of you even your storm
Your kisses and richness of magnetic charm
Your anger and even your inconsistency
Seem to charm my pink panties off me
I’m gonna go out on a limb
And say you got me roses for trim
Maybe it was more maybe less
Confess you feel something too I guess
What if this is just a fling
And I never learn anything
And what if I’m everything you need
And you’re everything for me
All I need is inspiration,
To write poetry every morning
As the sun is dawning.
All is I need is dedication,
To write poetry every evening,
And even when I’m sleeping.
All I need is my heart beating,
To write poetry with a passion,
In any style or fashion,
I write a poem on just a whim,
And go out on a limb,
I the beholder see beauty in everything.
I can write alliteration,
And careful of misinformation,
I write love poems with flirtation,
With careful deliberation,
Striving towards fair direction,
Love our poetic generation.
My muse eager to co-operate,
As we generate and contemplate,
And meaningfully corroborate.
Should I not be happy with my poem,
With its title, content, or a name,
I move to a process of elimination,
Poetry my passion and intoxication.
Why do we do the things we do
of all the everything under the sun
why do all those crazy things can’t ever be undone
it's beyond belief if it's not one thing it's another
between you and me don't know why I bother
sometimes we slip stumble and fall
trip tumble and fumble the ball
that's the way the cookie crumbles
why do we say the things we say
when there's everything else instead
why use such stupid words can’t ever be unsaid
until you go out on a limb you’ll never know the view
it's nice from far but far from nice
true from far yet oh so far from true
when thunder rumbles here comes the rain
no umbrella soaking wet again
that's the way the cookie crumbles
why do we choose the things we do
with all the everything else to choose
why decide on pointless wrongs can't ever hope to use
it's beyond belief if it's not one thing then it's another
and sometimes it's both why do I even bother
be it ever-so humble as if that's not all
give it the gas and the car will stall
hey that's the way the cookie crumbles
One day God visited His friend
on a strange trip, His friend to send.
“Wherever your journey takes you
I’ll give those who, from you issue.
Not knowing then where he should go
God’s friend obeyed, and his faith showed.
He took his wife and all he owned
and wandered in God’s twilight zone.
God loved to speak to him in dreams
and to unfold His lofty schemes.
He pledged to make his seed like sand,
and vowed to give them Canaan's land.
When Sodom reached the peak of shame
and God could not, its evils tame,
He shared His plan with his dear friend
revealing Sodom’s fiery end.
And when God’s friend, upon a whim
decided to reason with Him,
to spare Sodom from judgment day,
God heard what His friend had to say.
Then, as God’s friend was getting old,
His heart doubted what he was told.
The promises the Lord had made,
All seemed to be so long delayed.
He tried a plan to help God out
Taking his wife’s suggested route.
The child so born was not the seed
whom God promised to give the deed.
And when God’s time was fully run,
Sarah’s dead womb produced a son.
His seed became a nation great
who Canaan’s land would populate.
God’s friends are those who follow Him
Though called to go out on a limb.
Their hearts with unfeigned faith abound,
and real life with their feats resounds.
Most children love climbing trees
The higher the tree
The more you can see
The farther up the tree you go,
The more your juices start to flow
Excitement mounts as you get high
Assorted birds go flying by
Busy birds have made their nest
To lay eggs for them to rest
Before it's time for them to hatch
Their mother looks for worms to catch,
To feed her growing baby chicks
Most children love to climb trees,
The higher you go, the more you see,
But some children are afraid
They see the dangers that outweigh
The thrill of climbing way up high
On a vast tree that touches the sky.
Most of us love all trees,
And appreciate the magnificence of all of these
Content to stand and stare
At a spectacle that we all can share
Most children love to climb trees,
The higher you go, the more you see
Some children climb halfway
And get stuck, and have to stay
Until someone can come and save
As they are not as brave
As those who start to climb on a whim,
And find they have to go out on a limb
Because that is where all the fruits are.
Bigger than bodacious,
higher TCH than contagious-
I poke at the smoke and make a cause to estrange this,
…toodle-to-do in my space ship!
I love how much I can remake this,
and bank the right to go out on a limb,
spill on the film,
make the gas on the ground increase its bliss,
run through the breeze and accept your diss,
though it is time to resist-
and look back at your breast...
Ask mother to draw me up a sign-
because like it or not you are on my line,
and my best friends,
and my bosses,
your eye’s doing crosses,
your cops pulling over bloggers!
Wait,
stop!
I said stop on a dime!
Pick one up and help pay for the blind!
We adore dances as long as they make man-shifts,
make shift-
endanger wigs,
throw out chicken strips,
and hopeless trips!
Play out banquettes, with not enough men to spank it!
Even though they're all over it,
callin' all out smurf!
And say **** anybody with my tip!
It's high in the mountain range-
and it see's you as strange!
Blame blame blame!
And then do it all again!
Go to the gym later and explain!
Ask why do young men have names?...
I haven't given them my change,
I am still alive,
I deserve to be played!
I am in turn to say hey, go away,
you little brother,
stayin' for a long time and then bein' like...mine!
CHALLENGES
By Edmund Siejka
He faced a challenge
That forced him to use all his abilities
But doubt clouded his judgement
Caution gave way to uncertainty.
Needing help
He recalled these words:
1. Believe in yourself
Never bend your head
Hold it high
And look the world straight in the eye.
2. Smell the coffee.
3. Stand on your own two legs.
4. Life is in front of you.
5. Seize the day.
6. Get up and get moving.
7. Work smarter, not harder.
8. Save for a rainy day.
9. The tough get going when the going gets tough.
10. K.I.S.S. Keep It Simple Stupid.
11. Put a glide in your stride and a pep in your step.
12. Let’s get moving, we’re burning daylight.
13. Don’t deter from the main effort.
14. Every strike brings you closer to the next home run.
15. It’s not the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of the fight in the dog.
16. Don’t be afraid to go out on a limb. That’s where the fruit is.
17. A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.
18. Nothing is impossible, the word itself says, ‘I’m possible.’
19. The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step.
20. You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.
21. The mind is everything. What you think you become.
22. The road to success is always under construction.
23. Becoming is better than being.
24. Nothing is interesting if you’re not interested.
25. Look at a half empty glass as half full.
26. Ambition can’t wait.
27. Age is of no importance unless you’re a cheese.
And last, but not least:
28. Wake the hell up.
Watching you, watching me
this nightly ritual I shall uphold,
wondering where can autumn be
waiting for a hint of harvest gold
This nightly ritual I shall uphold
been sitting on the window sill,
waiting for a hint of harvest gold
just hoping for that familiar chill
Been sitting on the window sill
wanting to go out on a limb,
just hoping for that familiar chill
and to gaze at you on a wimb
Wanting to go out on a limb
lured me in like a can of tuna,
and to gaze at you on a wimb
under the pale light of Luna
Lured me in like a can of tuna
aligned amid each changing leaf,
under the pale light of Luna
an eclipse of sorts, all too brief
Aligned amid each changing leaf
staring down into my yellow eyes,
an eclipse of sorts, all too brief
but I love the way you mesmerize
Staring down into my yellow eyes
how easily your light bewitched,
but I love the way you mesmerize
when suddenly my senses twitched
How easily your light bewitched
to and fro a slender tail danced,
when suddenly my senses twitched
my curious nature so entranced
To and fro a slender tail danced
as pure joy awakened and grinned,
my curious nature so entranced
two spirits arose in the autumn wind
As pure joy awakened and grinned
simply to engage with this feline,
two spirits arose in the autumn wind
while distant gazes did intertwine
Simply to engage with this feline
wondering where can autumn be,
while distant gazes did intertwine
watching you, watching me.
