You would always give half of what you had
And i would do the same...

I know this lovely poet,
Her name is Ann Gilmour 
She really is an angel,
One that I adore.

They have a lot in common,
Parkinson's being one of them
Which is really rather...

Oceans quake, molding into fissures of tectonic hunger,
ravaging the deep, stirring the primal need depressing
populations unseen to the denizens of land, left in...

A dollar short and day too late

Your ship is sank

Grab you by your cape

BEYOND WAS AN ELEVATOR.
CURIOUS WHERE IT WENT
I BECAME THE INVESTIGATOR.

WITH THE HELP OF A MENTAL KEYPAD.
I ENTERED A DATE AND TIME.
I WAS LOOKING FORWARD
TO LEARN WHAT WAS LEFT BEHIND.

A HUNDRED...

The moon reflects softly
On the ocean’s surface tonight.
I’m a master of intelligence
With the C.I.A. codename: Night Surfer.

I secretly...spy my surroundings,
I text...coded messages to the target.
To rendezvous in the heart of the sand.
For an ambiguous adventure.

In writing I express emotions felt and feared 
I can feel high, no need for weed

I have friends I’ve never seen before 
At least not face to face.
I speak with them with ones and zeros 
In a world called cyberspace.
Through the magic of the microchips

I think your package was delivered today
left by a stranger from a cold lonely

You crave where to go, along with FM blues, tad,
Depend if you consider king harps crazy, you dad,
Or the creepy feel of a drunk, passionate and creative lad,

Goal for the day
Just sit and write
Whatever comes out
Make it flow, make it light. 

Make yourself smile
Forget all the machines
Gadgets from people
And holiday themes.

Fingers to keypad
Or paper and ink
It doesn't matter
Just make yourself think.

Use what...
