Premium Member Optimism

"I choose optimism over fatalism because I'm
 too determined to be conquered."
                                                       ~ by poet



I would embrace life with optimism
rather than feel resigned to dark despair
I prefer to see the world through a prism
filled with colorful beauty everywhere

Optimistic people don't mope and brood
In negativity they don't wallow
"This too shall come to pass,"  their attitude
when worry is a hard pill to swallow

It's not rose colored glasses that they wear
They are not naive or ambivalent
And don't for a moment think they don't care
Optimism prevents cause to lament

Hope gives optimists reason to cheer
It's happiness and health we should revere

New Wine No Old Wine

Smooth roll down my throat through my temple 
Seriously scent of grapes roams to my nose
Pink Moscato nights kept me with rose colored glasses
Settling for less looking for validation outside myself
Tall plastic wine glass melted as you lit my world on fire
Old wine; long nights passion lustful nights 
Left broken stuck in confusion with the wonders 
Old wine left my soul feeling used up as you fled away

Bring Cristal into my world she my new wine
High class standards set high can’t be mixed,
Mixed with old wine 
Pop that bottle let’s celebrate 
New wine new blessings 
Everyone can’t go everyone can’t drink your new wine
Chilled on ice as life’s changing 
Cristal feels fresh and free going through my body
Leaves me with no headaches nor sorrows 
Thank you new wine goodbye old wine
Bubbly as you twirl around my tall wine glass

New wine no old wine please...

Dulce Dream

          The exact same one, always of 
          you!
          When you are away,I awake.
          With cotton-candy kisses.
          Warm lip clouds, aglow!
          Tasting the delicacy of you.

          Caroused ,surrealistic dreams,
          of the spin of life we share.
          The music, vibrantly enchanting.
          A choral mosaic of love ever after.

          Sipping a tall, cool lemonade.
          As you carry me laughingly up
          Thick, rose-colored, carpeted stairs.
          Holding onto you, my Greek teddy
          bear!

          After so many years through love
          and tsunamis of laughter!
          The twirling ride of you.
          Locked in eternal embrace.
          Yes, just we two, whose love
          By time, cannot efface!

Premium Member Drug Using Me

Am I dead or dreaming? Lightfoot and scheming.
My head is full, I’m not sure which persona is in charge.
Have taken strong opiates, many too illegal to mention.
Unleash me, woman. Give me some sort of detention.
Let me be. Leave me alone. I have to be me.
We never were a complete or lovely we.

I’m too intelligent to be fooled by your endearments or looks.
My upbringing offered sordid truths that fed others lies.
You’re the crazy one. Unleash your stifling grappling hooks.
You are insane, with those rose-colored glasses on your hazel eyes!

I was raised by wolves, posing as Catholic redeemers and upstanders.
Evil creatures hiding in parishes on Sunday, pretending to be….
People who do the right thing, live morally, caring for children.
I knew the truth of them, they were liquor whores since I was wee.

Throwing me a life line? That makes me laugh. You want to save me?
I scoff at your holy handedness, your righteousness, your prissy stupidity.
I am well above your station, and we were never a thing, never could be.
My mind is shaking my soul out of her uncaring attitude at your weird lucidity.

I have saved myself, you see. So fly away, interferer, just let me be!
There is no we, never has been, and will never be, you see.
I am always, forever, and chronically only “me”.
Raised by wolves, heading toward my own morbidity.

Premium Member Time In Heaven

A bouquet of fresh air never fades.
In an intimate setting,
The ocean is veiled in secrecy,
Murmuration's breathtaking patterns.

Starlings moving as one entity.
The ego is a third party,
Your secret admirer.

Harmony without effort in nature,
Dreaming up a vast green pasture,
This is no ordinary slumber.
 
Sweet, rose-colored winds of change,
The ocean is an incompatible weather vane. 
Dread and dream are but a consonant apart.

Into a hush-hush mise en scène,
A doe runs from perceived fears
But makes a choice to stay.

Fantasy is freed into reality.
A lighthouse does not chase ships.
The ocean is deep, not shallow.
It is the birthplace of time in Heaven.


Premium Member Pinkies and Stinkies

That pop you hear 
is just another can of pinworms being opened
by the disgruntled, the entitled, the privileged.
Cackling about what they think they lack.
While ignoring the many things they do or could have.
They cluster together in a bait ball of perpetual misery 
(of their own making).
Pointing stinky middle fingers at anybody that doesn't agree.
With their funhouse mirror philosophy...
In the (mean) time they grow fat off freebies.
Courtesy of (term limitless) pinkies in government.
Using the stinkies to divide the masses.
While taxing the crap out of the working class.
To perpetuate a two-class system made up of sheep herders and sheep.
With a big blue-collar hole in between....
and as long as the stinkies are miserable,
the pinkies have gotten what they want.
And will continue to fill our blue-collar noses 
with the rose-colored snot of their bad intentions....
and that buzz that you'll soon be hearing 
is the last of the sheep being sheared.

The Dreamers

The Dreamers©

I think oft  what it would be like to be one of them

To look at the world through rose colored glasses

Where the world is perfect according to my childhood dreams

In that dream I would be a pilot, handsome and tall
A world traveler to boot

I would be married to the girl next door
The vivacious blonde with that voluptuous figure

Somehow as if by magic I would be rich as well as famous

My model looks would have me featured in a magazine

This would be a follow up to my bestselling book which is 
Now being turned into the greatest movie of all time

The movie is a documentary about my days as a rock star

It would highlight my younger years 
As a pro athlete and renowned artist extraordinaire

The captivating television interview for my hit movie 
Held at my countryside estate overlooking the ocean
It is prominently featured in Homes & Gardens magazine

Having won the lottery my days are filled with 
Time to spend with family and friends at will
Or inventing the greatest next best thing

My ideal children seemingly raise themselves 
To become childhood prodigies

When I come back to reality in my modest home
Readying myself to go to my everyday job
And writing poetry waiting to be discovered

I wonder “Is this as good as it gets”

Love Refined

Rose colored glasses long ago shattered...
No time for phantom kisses...
Nor faux acts of love...
The keeper of this heart—
will captivate me unpretentiously...
Taking me as I am...
Sweeping me off my feet 
sending my soul on a mission of surprise 
mingled with admiration...
Whisk me away on his magic carpet— 
to a special place with the prospect of sharing 
a spirituality that’ll rival mythical God’s...
Build a trust that no one can bring to naught...
Be my hero—my gift with no expected reciprocity...
Hold me in his arms with insane intensity; 
as if there is no tomorrow...
Make me feel loves heat 
with no intention of starting a fire...
Awe me with his contemplation of my desires 
without my asking...
Penetrate my heart with a percussion 
that strikes a cord of sweet melodies...
Igniting a conscious love journey 
that will renew time and time again 
as we vehemently love each other veraciously...

I Shant Not See

21 Jan 2019  11:46 Am

I shant see another day
As clearly as today

For with every day and every year
The eye become less clear

Fogged with worry and smudged with pain
Frosted with indifference and distorted with hatreds rain

A life lived hurried turns hearts to stone
Wearing blinders to see the future while the present is at home

We think that we live when we work and we give
While life pours away like water through a sieve 

Positive thinking is rose colored glasses
Hiding and disguising the evil of the masses

Aleaving the sypmtoms does not cure the disease
Pretending life is easy does not make it a breaze

Peace does not come by giving in
Love is not forced but givin from within

Faith is our hope of life to live again
A life without worry, sorrow, pain and sin
