Achooo!
It begins, almost always, with a sneeze, 
Which, in some cultures, 
Invites blessings, 
But, in some others, a curse,
As it’s held to be ominous!

Are you saying that teachers have...

Why do bad things happen to good people?
Why does suffering come to the weak and feeble?
Misery doesn't come to us simply
Whatever fruit we plant, will grow on the tree

Why do we see good people suffer?

III.
But I had a much higher purpose now,
damned or not, I would serve the True God,
for thirty years I served with my brothers,
upon a humble path I faithfully trod.

Maybe I wasn’t a miracle worker,
though I...

Pure silence or the sound of wind chimes
Willing to do anything to save their own hides
People still committing horrific crimes
During low and high tide

A whirlwind inside my...

It's your fault, I have this problem
you could have been, more like your brother
you make the choices, that determine your life

Yet in truth, it's more like percentages
To say, that parents...

planted in the mind, another way of being
outside spectrum, the act of forgiveness
the lore of love, united with the Seven Sisters

"On Dasher and Dancer, Comet and Cupid"...eight tiny reindeer?
Doesn't that sound stupid?
Pulling a sleigh 'round the world in one night?

Insatiable thirst and hunger
A bottomless materialistic pit
Always something for nothing
Prop your feet up; you’re the shit

Narcissist lazy behavior
Spoiled childish attitude
Snowflakes; everybody’s a winner
Except for people like me and you

They want it all
Dedicated to useless social...

She was sitting on the edge of the bar stool
Not wearing anything but her wings.
I found it curious that no one else seemed
to want a peek and I could not stop peeking.

I came upon a tribe one day
in a land not far away
where everyone gets what they need
from juices of an orange seed

Cara Mia
by Rick Rucker

How could it come to pass
I was viewing life through steam-ed glass? 
Surely this was just not right,
Why was it in black and white?

At the time, not a notion
That it was all...

"Darkness"


Often looking for targets
Thinking they're the smartest
And sharpest
So quick to start it

Constant carnage
This planet and animals getting treated...

Shadows
I walked into a dark shadow of foreboding with fear surrounding me.
I saw people depressed, despondent and stuck because fear absorbed them.
The loss of hope is everywhere in this shadow, cries, sobbing and despair, I...

Patter on the window,
From a dark and dreary Cloud,
The lightning really bright,
And then the thunder banging loud.
The memory of childhood,
As the rain prevented play,
My mother’s words still ringing loud,
“No playing out today”.
The raincoat made of...
