if I included all the chapters of my life’s journey
from that of an old soul, from pure consciousness
to egg and sperm colliding, to embryo, to fetus,

The sweetest thing, the sweetest taste and the worst thing to be taken away

Chairman Xi Jinping you seek a new geo-strategical order

Sick of the blame game burden and fake foreign news

Like viruses internet hacking sanctions and accusations

Spew a fault line of tsunamis and earth shattering quakes

Of Love and Pain (I Staked My Claim)
I’m a glutton for love you know
Yet I’m a sucker for pain
Heart on my sleeve everywhere I go
Not wanting sustenance of refrain
Red on my palms entwined with another
Parading around like a stalking saint
Spreading the word...

Her spirit was as...

An ancient, elegant – once jolly – old Lady,
deserving of so, very much more then
the rape and pillage, the destruction and pollution,
the chemical alterations – poisons,

Premium Member A Contemplation
There are no truly blue flowers. 
No, not one. 
Hydrangeas or tulips can be green,
an odd color for flowers, I think.
Brown ones are dead. 
Brown and green are the colors of human eyes though,
and blue...

The Road Never Ends
Love
the way I knew it
was childlike, pure and crystalline.
It was tear-apart lust, down to the ground
and take what you need and give back too.

Things glowed gold
when I went out.
Actually different, a softness, a gentleness
about them.

Hands...

Beautiful Disaster
Cause you see no one gets how hard it is to fix back into shape when you’re broken,
Shattered,
I think it’s just mathematically, scientifically impossible to get the pieces back perfect,
Because in the process some pieces...

I Would If I Could
If I could go back to that day
You know in a heartbeat I would
Now all the words you say
Hurt me more than my blades ever could

Like Fric and Frac or Tigger and Pooh
We were together...

Guess who was crowned a crest? 
A flowery green meadow was the stage and rostrum
Watch who won the contest.

Well, the peacock from India was crowned beauty King
The bird of paradise from...

Passages of Time
You are my mother,
and I love you so.
It was so very hard,
to let you go.

Through the years,
you've yelled at me,
and made me cry.
I didn't even bother,
to ask you why.

All these years,and
the hurt remains.
Memories of the...

So many forks on Opportunity Road
She turned back quickly the first time
Settling for a life she never wanted
But it was incredibly easy
And dreams can be adjusted

Sad about her settling, she tried again
This time it was...

A Dunce To Lovers Lying Ways

To defeat the terrorism
That's been in my world and soul
I've been broken, never whole
Torn to shreds by horrid lies
Handed to me by sly guys
Each one took another slice
I willingly fave...

Ya hurt me once,
Ya hurt me twice,
Will ya turn and make it thrice?;
To leave me lyin’,
To leave me achin’,
To leave my heart that you...

The Pig's New Toy
The Pig’s New Toy

By Elton Camp

The tiny, rural town so conveniently lay
Right alongside the well-traveled highway

Bubba’s cop salary depends on fines
If not enough, then his pay declines

So he managed to get him a radar gun
He...

We suffer seperately in our factured future. 
Even though we are only three streets away.
But in many ways we are Mars and Venus.
With only the pleasure of wishing on shooting stars.
Longing to meet somewhere in...

The Other Side of Life
A loved one has passed to the other side,
Within my heart there to abide.
I know one day they'll be reborn,
That's why there's no reason for me to mourn.

Even though you've gone away,
In my heart you'll...

Speeding out and back around the sun
The comet came on its periodic run
Straggling tail spread afar
By the wind from the star
Carrying deep at its heart
The vital spark for life to start
Each package held there steady
