with a glass half full point of view

collected in a shoebox,
his model submarines, and planes.
he paced in a restless waddle

The times I let my pride decide…

As I strolled through the street one day,
The oddest sight caught my eyes,
A man, only wearing rags,
But very wise,
Spoke words of knowledge, inspiration and advice,
How to care, how to share,
And just how to be nice,

Stuck and demented within this mindless dream

Have you heard the ghosts' voices when you sleep?
Or feel the icy fingertips dance across your neck when you weep?

An imposter sits on the throne
From the moment he takes office
Stripping our rights away like a banana
Leaving us slipping on the peels
Trying to figure out what the Hell to do.

Workers vanish from...

To feel that butterfly flutter of affection, a touch of love,

The soul yearns and searches for happiness and comfort,

To feel at...

In a lane with only one speed-fast,

SOLDIER OF BATTLES..    Steve Hudson

It started, in silence, in infancy; the eyes look beyond the darkness
To understand the sounds of rage, echoes of misunderstanding,
The beginnings of normalcy wrought with disturbance,
Bereavement for the...

Hot as hell, emotions fire the flames, 
Nervous about meeting doctors, nurses, 
Curtain separates them from congregation,
The veil is not torn in two, but steamy adulation, 
Courts their friendship sessions to distance, 
Bible fanatic from...
