When Quiet Screams

like vinegar and baking soda combined
daily hustle bustle and grind — in caustic silence —
erodes...  

precious time eroded in the rush to clear agendas
rushing to the rhythm of the— tick— tockin’ of time... 

engulfed with the toils and responsibilities of life
it all seemingly moving in slow motion...

'til suddenly it becomes sublime 
to realize just how much time— has passed 
now seemingly moving much too fast... 

like motion picture film spinning on a reel
as this arduous journey reaches a place of still...

still quiet —volume so loud —you can hear it scream
with flashes of the past rewinding inside your mind... 

revealing —in that slippage of time— often 
it was thou— you left behind... 

quiet screams —
time to exhale....accept or receive
what has been lost or achieved...

shhhh — listen!— the time is now yours 
time to lay to rest — hustle bustle and grind—
time — to relax your mind....

and enjoy —your way—what’s yours...

God’s greatest gift—

time......




***Inspired by the feelings many retirees and empty
 nesters experience...

Gaslit Nightmare

Willingly, I ran
That was the first sign my life was falling apart
Strange bike that brought me back in one piece, damn you
That hope of abduction never came to fruition 
I am complacent in the wake of my life’s finale

Climbing those eight flights of stairs
Only to prolong my denial
Too choked to speak 
Life has always been easy 
I realize you are a hologram
Motion picture of a mother 
You are complacent in the wake of my life’s finale

Sent to bed at five o'clock
The same time it's been since yesterday
I fake asleep
When you walk in with my father
Coughing lies and webs of drunken incongruencies
I am complacent in the wake of my life's finale

We eat, and I sit by the water
Black tide splashing up to my toes
For a moment, I dream of drowning,
Fanatically gasping for air
I'm pulled away by the arrival of pasta
I do not eat, but rather stare as you finish
One, Two, Three, Four
Glasses of wine
I threaten to walk until I'm pacified
Moron, you call me 
As we arrive, safely
Climbing those eight flights of stairs
Only to prolong my denial 
My eyes are closed 
I fake asleep

Sober at midnight 
I said something that had scared you, though you don't quite remember
Please talk to you
I liked hearing you beg
Ignoring you in my bed,
I fake asleep

I wake up alone 
Breakfast waiting for me 
I do not eat. 
Yesterday did not happen
I'm seventy feet under
Quite easy it would be to die here, I think
I wish I had.
I was complacent in the wake of my life’s finale

Resurfacing, I refuse my favorite fruit 
I do not eat, but rather stare at the water
For a moment, I dream of drowning,
Fanatically gasping for air 
I’m complacent in the wake of my life’s finale 
We drive in silence 
Still crunchy from the salt
I fake asleep

I never woke up 
Hypnotized by your lies and 
The gaslit fire that kept me warm in my slumber
I dreamt of drowning,
Fanatically gasping for air
Until I fell still, complacent in the wake of my life’s finale

Premium Member My Sisters

There were ten of the female gender in my immediate family.
Comparatively, there were five of us males and a dog name Jack.
Whether needed or not, I'd say there was a two to one advantage.

I'm not saying that all of them were programmed to be talkative, but
almost every one of the women in my family have lots of words designed     to be spoken.  And maybe it's just me, but it seems when my sisters are together, they compete in the number of words to be delivered. I tell you.   It's serious business.

Growing up, if I were lucky, I had to 'break-in' to get a word in edge-wise.
Otherwise, I'd just stand around and listen to loud words that weren't so clear. Oh, my eight sisters liked to cook and play, but mostly, they liked        to walk and talk.  Even now, whether on a long distant call or close up
and in person, I still have to 'break-in' if ever I have any kind of say.

When my wife first met the women in my family, she could not understand
how anyone ever understood what the other was saying, because all of them were speaking at the same time.  But make no mistake, if you did not
understand, it only meant that you were not an 'insider'.  If by chance
one was able to 'break-in' and become a part of 'the loud and not so clear chat', he had better 'get on with it', or he would quickly be 'shouted down'. 

Oh yes, although it remains a mystery, I suppose that somewhere in the family archives, there is indeed a hidden secret to the 'meaning of the madness'.  But anymore, my wife doesn't try to enter in or even understand. But she does find it entertaining.  She just sits or stands to observe the motion picture.

Premium Member Abe and Issaquena-F

Beware the pieces of the puzzles of your life.
Treasure them early; appreciate them for life.

She was the sight of my first job opportunity away from the farm.
She bridged the social gap between 'my boyhood and my manhood'.

He had a shoe store when I asked him for a job, and he said yes.                                                                                                   
His name was Abe, and I have him to thank for many lessons learned.                                                                            

She is the sight of the first motion picture show that I ever watched.
She is the sight of the cafe with the best tasting hamburgers I ever ate.

He took me under his wings and taught me how to interact with people.
He portrayed the meaning of service, entrepreneurism, and persistence.

Her name means, 'Deer River', and as a child, I knew her as Issaquena.
She was the sight of a barber shop whose owner was also a musician.

She was the life blood of activities of every kind as the people mingled.
Abe and Issaquena, two unforgettable names attached to my early years.                                                             

Abe, a giant of a man; one piece of the puzzle that assisted me early in life.
Issaquena, a hometown street and an inanimate piece of my life's puzzle.

Left

Sometimes I wonder where did the time go
Am I growing overall or just not knowing
I ask myself is it me, it must be something I'm not showing enough of. Enough love, understanding, empathy, feels like a motion picture woe despicable me got me thinking am I still seeking to win your heart am I still fishing for you, what about my actions do they really speak louder than my words, are you still blessed to have me, are you really the one I deserve. Am I still the one you wanna spend your last days with, should I question it at this point but then again why not is this just a pit stop. I got plenty of questions but will yours answers put those fears to rest, we want everything to be right but are you ready to come together humbly and find out why, when, & where we went left.

Premium Member A Winner

I'm gonna try to be the President.
A major league baseball player.
I'm gonna try to be a football star.
A big casino winner.
I'm gonna try to drag around a fire hose.
Drive a hook and ladder.

Here's a few things, I'm gonna try to be.
I'm gonna try to be a winner.
Save up all my money.
Try to live it up.
I'm only just a beginner.

I'm gonna try to be a movie star.
A motion picture actor.
Then I'm gonna live it up, in Hollywood.
Become a top ten singer.
Here's just a few things, I'm gonna try to be.
I'm gonna try to be a winner.

I'm gonna try to be a winner..

which unexpectedly, inadvertently,

     brewed ferocious breed
on par with the Alaskan Bull Worm,
     whereat armed guards

     at libraries entrances indeed

     would pay no heed
to any obstacle, and such unstoppable

     ravishing knowledge
     hungry kids did exceed
capacity security details dashed away,
     faster then Clifford

but especially to flee bozos 
not tubby confused with Bezos -

whose cashiered spigot flows

"Having a Nemesis and creating another one sound's like something a Madman inspires to do"
" Bullsh4t, man! Bull! you stray from her one more time and I will exstarct the closest thing to hell your dumbass could ever want to see. Punks like you alway get the pretty ones, treat them like whores and don't think people care about you or what you're going through, truth is it aint even worth it! A woman is smart enough to love and mean enough to understaan, but if you cross her one more time, she'll be demonifed enough to mortar, remeber I'm ah  loving fool waiting to for you to get in my face!"
" It's as strange as you make it: and as familair as you allow it to be, just remember you aint right in this fight Honey! Woman been doing this for years and you think you done scoreed the big one, He might be gaming ya!"
" True love conqueres all it seeps into the soul and intoxicates the spirt: : I aint seen nothing here that does that for me, even though I am in love with him. It's fun tricking him: his former freind wanted me to be pregant with his child, and look him in his eyes and tell him he was the daddy, all along while he and I would only know the differance: I thought about it!"

Edison's Hammer

(William Hammer, Thomas Alva Edison's assistant,
has reached the end of his tolerance.  His boss is
planning to electrocute an elephant for a publicity
stunt.)

If he goes through with this, the dam has burst.
I'm done with him. Of all the tricks he's pulled,
this is the lowest, cheapest, cruellest.  Worst.
Yes, Edison.  He can't be serious,
can he? To execute an elephant?

He's out there, grinning like a Barbary ape.
Where two or more newspapermen are gathered,
Alva loses all his self-control.
He'll be there now, perspiring, shouting, lathered,
excited to his flinty, vulgar soul.

I'm William Joseph Hammer. Who are you?
A quarter-century I've spent with him,
but now the scales have fallen from my eyes.
The man's a pirate and a charlatan.
Inventor?  Him?
                              Well, since I'm stranded here
in shabby Coney Island in the rain,
ignored and slighted, spited yet again,
I'll tell you. Edison did not invent
the light bulb - that's what he employed me for.
Besides, I'll name a dozen scientists
who'd made a working lamp some years before.

What is he good at? He's a patent-mill!
He takes out patents like a dentist, teeth
(except that dentists never put their name
on what they've pulled). The man has got no shame.
The team has all the talent, he the grin:
we think the thoughts, and Alva cashes in.

I think he's met his match in Westinghouse.
The so-called war of currents. Who will win?
America will buy one set of goods,
and where this country leads, the others go.
To get his system in American homes,
He'd kill his grandma.
                                        Hence this all-time low.
He's worse than Czolgosz.  At the very least,
the latter had nobility, although
misguided.  Alva has no other cause
beyond himself. Those motion picture-things
are here for Alva's glory. When the blow
extinguishes that poor beast's life, you'll know
whose self-promoting hand was on the tiller.
Saint Thomas Alva Edison's a killer.
