Premium Member Coffee Addiction

Coffee Addiction

Calibrating coffee homeostasis flows easily back and forth

On the ‘high’-way of instant craze and crave of gratification

'Feodor' true to his name slurps the divine gift all day to rise

From moody withdrawal of night slumber slumping aground 

Energetic vigour and buoyant exuberance alights from 

Exhaustion brought on by life and pulsating caffeine’s fix


Abortive attempts to reduce hooked intake accrued no success 

Doomed at one time and in lack of hot water 'Feodor' even

Dissolved coffee in Cola to feed effervescent dependence

Imbalanced the mixture blew up but nourished his need

Caressed by foam on his face he confronted his addiction

To vow not to drink less tropical grind but have water 

In sufficient vital supplies at all times to keep well afloat

On balance his highs derived from his beverage of choice

Navigate his depression much better than Cocaine or booze

Premium Member Cooking With Potatoes

So versatile is the potato.
It’s orange; it’s yellow; it’s white; it’s sweet.
It’s baked or boiled; it’s mashed or fried.
It’s served with poultry, with fish or with meat.

I love to cook, and I have for you
three recipes for potato dishes.
Not too expensive, they’re easy and fast.
But best of all, they are most delicious!

A Tator Tot casserole I love to bake.
With my company, it’s always a  hit.
Ground beef fried with onion is mixed with creamed soup
and the bag of tots! Bake with cheese over it!

From my childhood comes the twice baked potato.
I’m sure you’ve heard of it – bacon and cheese.
But try some canned tuna with canned green beans.
Top with good cheese; microwave; it’s a breeze.

Last is a recipe that I obtained 
from the time that I spent in Madrid.
The Spanish omelet’s really big there.
This is a recipe that I “redid.”

I fry chopped potatoes and onions in oil.
Salt and pepper it; drain off the oil when gold.
Stir in lots of eggs till it’s moist and thick.
In omelet shapes this mixture should hold.

Onto a large griddle, pour each omelet shape.
Turn them like pancakes when each side is done
I’ve Americanized it by adding Tabasco,
melting cheese on it too; this food is so fun!

These are just three dishes made with potatoes.
I have many more. Do you think you could make
at least one of these I’ve described? Let me know!
And I hope you already know how to bake!

Premium Member The Thief and the Vampire

On All Hallow's Eve I was home all alone,
And the wind 'round the eaves gave an eerie moan.
Outside my window the moon shone bright,
And I saw something strange in the pale moonlight.

Out on the lawn in the shadows was lurking,
A figure a shadow, furtively searching,
For a way to get in under cover of darkness,
And my heart gave a leap as I struggled to harness,

A mixture of panic, excitement and fear,
For no one to this house ever comes near.
I hid in the darkness, my nerves all a-flutter,
As I heard him trying to open the shutters.

Then he was in and we met face to face,
And I saw his surprise as his eyes searched the place.
He'd thought the house empty, deserted and bare,
A good place to hide,perhaps use for a lair.

He did not expect to find anyone there,
And I guess my appearance gave him a scare.
I spoke to him gently to ease the sensation,
Of fear, apprehension and deep aggravation.

You came not to harm or to cause consternation,
But you should not have entered without invitation;
For this is my home and I'm mistress here,
And I hold my privacy precious and dear.

Few people ever come out this way,
And it's late so I bid you to come in and stay.
I invite you to come in and rest and be still,
I bid you enter of your own free will.

Sensuous Delight

The skin beneath her fingertips felt rough and cold.
She traced the pattern and pressed the firm sphere into the palm of her hand.
She was careful not to push too hard as she rolled it up and down.
She bit her bottom lip as she remembered their last encounter.
A rush of inspiration took over and she could feel her temperature rise.
Finally, her tenacity prevailed and she broke through the surface.
She fondled the inside with great love, it felt soft and cold beneath her quivering fingertips.
She couldn’t help but indulge in a taste.
Smiling she felt the smooth flesh against her lips. 
Her tongue eased back and forth until it was enveloped with flavor.
She tossed the hard skin-saving just the insides.

She reached behind her and grabbed the smooth, long piece,
Gasping she held the area and carefully rubbed the skin free.
Mixing the two together was something she had not done before
but she wanted this to be different, to be hot, to be delectable.
She yearned for excitement. She craved something spicy.
Using the sharpest knife she could find she sliced it into tiny pieces.
You could hear a faint sigh as she combined the two.
Her eyes watered as her nares flared. 
She could taste the heat with her every breath.

She saw the plump red flesh on her window sill.
Carefully she looked at it. 
There were no spots, it was ready.
Pushing it up to her face she inhaled,
The sweetness was evident. 
She rinsed her knife admiring its sleek steel blade.
Without hesitation, she cut and chopped until the red flesh dripped with juice.
She put it with the others.
The air was fragrant with the mixture. 
It was one,
It was done,
and it was the best guacamole she had ever made.

Easy to Give Up

4/14/24


I'm not sure exactly around where
But I know she's out there
With or without brown hair
I can't sit and wait like a lounge chair
I have to keep searching I'm now aware

Too much time I've been wasting it
Across all gradients
Her presence full of radiance
To me she is regarded in salience

She has a heart of gold
I start to not feel dark and cold
In every part of my soul
It's sad that carnage grows
Yet truly amazing how karma goes
I was down a path battling the hardest throes

Then I stopped and said it
She deserves lots of credit
Difficult to say if she got the message
And if what I meant was or was not effective

Beside all these pots and pans
Having honor can
Turn you into a stronger man
For you I offer my hand

Originally something I couldn't grasp
Now I've understood that
No need to always look back
Hard times should pass
In the present it's nice to share some good laughs
Sure at some point I could crash
But that's life not everything would last

Outlooks and outcomes always seemed grim and rough
The never ending pressure like I never did enough
I was beginning to get sick of much
But with a bit of luck
Plus willpower helped get rid of stuff
Since it's easy to give up
Yet to always go on and live is tough
Next thing you know it's all gone into dust

Funny how it's so different with her
My life doesn't wither
I always thought I'd be chopped liver
That the end would not differ
My choices were an odd mixture
Drowned my sorrows in lots of liquor
Was still lost no elixir
Until I finally got the picture

I was headed toward the gravesite
She helped change my way of life
With more than great advice
Day and night
She's a ray of light
When I went to break the ice
I figured she'd tell me to take a hike
But what she had to say was nice
"At times we all face a plight
May pay the price
Yet we can still make it right"

Premium Member Aunt Grace's Peach Cobbler

Around the corner and half a block away, the flavor would grab me, tie me up to some irresistible force, then drag my nose to the source of its home.  The aroma that wafted in the air and up my whiffer was sweet and warm - rich with orchards of deliciousness and cascading with the buttery peachy-ness of what was to come.  It knocked all other thoughts out of my realm and led me down a path of complete submission - surrendering like the energy of cold water on a hot skillet.  With each step bringing me closer, my musing would swirl with the anticipation of that first ultra-luscious, gratifying juicy bite - the one that ever so longingly and lovingly would delightfully roll around on every palate of my watering mouth and lingering tongue only to succumb to gulping down the first chunk.

From the flour and water and salt

Her timeworn hands kneaded magic

A mystical mixture of love and fruit to concoct-

A pinch of this and that, nothing formally systematic.

This masterpiece was an untold legend that "rocked" 

The socks off anyone and even rival the "Titanic"!

Her ritual was simple and deep rooted

As uncomplicated as a baby's grin.

"Easy as Pie" she mooted

And laughed while she hummed all the while.

Layering the rich sheets of goodness in a pan

From pie dough to peaches to butter and sugar

There was nothing in this world so simple or better than

My Aunt Grace's Peach Cobbler!
