Premium Member Analysis

based rather loosely upon all the misinformation we receive
we latch onto opportunity to decide what should be believed
propelled by wants and needs, racing headlong toward uncertain future
forgetting day shall come when none remember who, what or if we were
obscuring right and wrong, hoping results cause consensus to appear
over the tortured course of many a long and distinguished career
guided ever onward by words and solemn wisdom from those who weren't
living an existence which we will claim to be fully transparent
overconfidence codifying into shining satisfactions
hiding the attempts to equip our lives with selective redactions

struggling tirelessly to establish the very nature of what is 
careful measuring of murky depths shows how unwise placing trust is
eventually becoming lost in process of analysis

Chasing Snow

Watching snow collide...
Watching snow ascend...
Watching it zig zag with technical pride 
Watchung snow descend...

I view my window as the wind lets out its blow 
Caught a gaze at it a few times about some years ago
Autumn hasn’t ended yet, my friend
I’ll meet you from beginning to end

I got distracted…
So sidetracked from the start,
Chasing snow on the TV screen
I got attracted…
So deceived with lust in heart 

The snow outside is glimmering gold
Our imagination inside never grows old
I keep staring at the television screen,
Wondering where you’ve been…again…

Bewildered, yet calm and collected
I want to be accepted, not rejected
I saw snow on the TV screen,
But I’d rather chase snow outside, so don’t intervene

Life is full of distractions
Generally, It’s for our satisfactions..
Yet, millions suffer day by day
I sink and drown in consideration and dismay

I am frustrated
Let me look less jaded
I’d rather watch and observe sadly…
I can’t do anything about it unfortunately 

Turn off the television
Look into my weary eyes
It’s ultimately your decision
If you want to believe in truths or lies

Just so that you know
I ran into your mind's snow
Your brain is glitching insane
We both are on a different lane

Chasing…inside...snow…
I don’t know why I do so 
Just so that you know,
I seek the truth behind the lie, you know?
Chasing…outside…snow

Premium Member A Designer of Systems

1

I say I'm a designer of systems, plans
Man's
Parts that stand together, set in place to serve
Trees and planets, too, which are unplanned by us
The observant, wise man
Tries to understand
Name the parts, pistil and stamen
Rocks, eskars
Elements.

Winter is shuddering to an end, mud roads
Cardinal pairs
Robin flocks return that will soon pair off
Buds
Soils swell
Will I live to smell it again, learn the lobelias
Understand and name the parts
It ought to be a great comfort to be so insignificant
Go among weeds, a wind
Thinking to myself

One's never alone
A dichotomous key is needed, a book of twigs and fruits
Accumulated over time and generations
Without it mine would be a blank mind

To be blank but knowledgeable
Without any machinery
In a perfect silence
That is the definition of death for which we have only to wait
But in my panic last night I thought death's inert
Grace requires consciousness
Hold on long to the senses
At least a century, maybe more
A boy hanging upside down from a fence at sunset, counting clouds

Now we go to our daily practice
And chosen disciplines
Sustained by the satisfactions of being good men among our fellow men
Women
Choosing to do this and not that
With the finite days allotted us that at first seemed like a lot
They're now few
But the chickadee's life to the chick and the cankerworm moth's to the
      worm
Seem as long to them as ours to us
What question am I asking today
By now, past half a century, I should have chosen a discipline
And been satisfied

To be a war president one must have war
May you live in interesting times?wish or curse?
Squirrels, high in oaks,
Fiber, fat and protein in acorns
Strong runners, leapers, climbers
Should stay off the roads which some cannot avoid being where they're
      born
Natural selection is occurring
Those that look for machinery in motion
Hesitate or don't as needed before crossing
Live in larger numbers than those whose modus operandi's
Guessing
The ravens eat the fur and guts of bad guesses off the roads

I impose my own small order
Having chosen mountains over plains or shore
Go to my daily discipline
And estimate the motions of the seas and stars
Measuring my satisfactions by my children's satisfactions

Live Your Life To the Fullest

Everyone comes to a point 
Where they've had enough
Been through a 
Whole lot of stuff(lot of stuff)
Had enough minuses
Trying to stick to the plus
I've did more than most
Going to make it
Lets propose a toast
So what do you do
When the possibilities exhaust
Make the best of it
Find out your cost
No matter what you do
Live your life to the fullest
Its all up to you

Its your life
Get up and live it(live it)
Oh yea 
Make sure you make the right decisions 
In your life 
Live out your vision
It can be fun and so fulfilling (fulfilling)
Remember you can do this
Just live your life to the fullest

Everyone has a passion
Ohhhhhhhhh ohhhhhhhhh
Easy to lose sight 
With discrations (with distraction's)
Trying to make sure the world 
Is up to your  satisfactions 
So what am I trying to say
Be more than just a display (a display)
Go ahead and do all that you want
Don't let anyone ever say that you cannot
Build a legacy 
Dont be forgot 


Its your life
Get up and live it(live it)
Oh yea 
Make sure you make the right decisions 
In your life 
Live out your vision
It can be fun and so fulfilling (fulfilling)
Remember you can do this
Just live your life to the fullest

So what exactly will you do?
Focus on being
Someone other than you
Not realizing in your self
Is where your wealth
When I speak in wealth
Clearly I don't men money ??
I mean self worth honey
Continue to pursue 
All your dreams 
Dont give up no matter how hard it seems 
Go ahead and give it all you got
Aim to the highest reach the top 

Its your life
Get up and live it(live it)
Oh yea 
Make sure you make the right decisions 
In your life 
Live out your vision
It can be fun and so fulfilling (fulfilling)
Remember you can do this
Just live your life to the fullest

Streetchildren on an Alley

(5-21-26 For "Snapshots of a Night Scene" Contest Sponsor - Nette Onclaud)



Dusk slowly approaches, as their energy finally begins to wane.  Half flat soccer balls
speedily sent down a grassless, asphalt field by crooked, knobby sticks.

Stubby chunks of chalk - pink, yellow, blue, white. Hopscotch squares already fading
Frayed jump ropes swinging up, around, and down, 
their satisfying soft smacks on the ground, keeping rhythm.

Delighted squeals of joy, laughter, calling out of names to friends, classmates, neighbors, siblings...

Somehow, this view left me remembering
my days of young, pondering the timeless satisfactions and yearnings of youth.

Gentle raindrops begin to splat red and orange leaves, partially painted the weed-lined pavement
Small shadows scatter and go wherever it is they go when the night sets in.

Social Status Effect

Miscommunication, is fabrication of reality
When actually it’s a matter of perspective.
She was a standout, with a name similar to yours
With pure intentions, painful convictions but losing to her own dispositions.
Deprivation of her moral mentality structure crumbles
Caused by misadventures of her past life
Blighted with horrific memories
Tragic upsets that shake the very foundation of her soul.
Lead by the goals of our society
To keep the mindset that anxiety… controls you
But who understands?
Those who demand you to over expand your capability of toleration to your demons?
Pharmaceutical apprehension to be your companion in this never-ending struggle?
School systems have programs
That program you to say
Everything’s okay
Just get over it and move on
But you see there is no off switch to pain
No preset to reset her experiences
The hand that she felt
A seatbelt that would strap her into a horrible roller-coaster ride of misery
You see, there is something wrong with this picture
Its missing something
Someone…
You?
Maybe everything that she needed was a frosty before third period on a March afternoon
Or maybe, an almond milk macchiato on finals week at Delos across the street
Or even an acquainted silence of tears while she spilled her heart on the dashboard of your car.
She needed a home
No not a bed to sleep in with complimentary breakfast
No!
A resting place
That’s laced with people who care to hear the response of how her day is,
Or how’s she’s doing in school
Or why is there scars on her…
Arms to be held in when she needs comfort.
Sometimes we’re the only savior that people see,
But what saviors are we when we’re preoccupied with our own self-indulgence of social media.
Temporary satisfactions from addictions ever going,
Distracting us from having true meaning in life.
We need to make a stand,
To withstand this generational curse.
Of carelessness of peoples pain,
But first, let me update my status.

Premium Member Indulgences

An indulgence is the remission in whole or in part of the temporal punishment due to sin

An indulgence is not a pardon of sin, nor a license to commit sin, and one who is in state of mortal sin cannot gain an indulgence

There are 2 kinds of Indulgenses- Plenary and Partial

A Plenary indulgence is the remission of the temporal punishment due to sin

Partial indulgence is the remission of a part of temporal punishment due to sin

The Church by means of indulgences remits the temporal punishment due to sin by applying to us the merits of Jesus Christ, and thesuperabundant satisfactions of the Blessed Virgin Mother Mary and the saints; which merits and satisfactions are its spiritual treasury

To gain indulgence we must be in the state of grace and perform the works enjoined

Premium Member PSALM 33-CELEBRATE GOD

Wooo oh a oh la la
Hey
Hey
I will celebrate God.
 I am the righteousness of God.
 I will come to praise Him 
With music from my heart. 
Sing into heavens with my mouth.

Overall nations, He's supreme Elohim, 
Creator of all divine things 
Divine providence 
God understands our hearts

We forthright upright. 
Must celebrate God's power day and night Hallelujah.

Trust in God's words, solid to the core 
Unstoppable Hallelujah pure

Finding peace and security in God Hallelujah 

Celebrate God, I will celebrate God
Whose affections satisfactions , fills the earth
Celebrate God for all He's worth
Celebrate God for all He's worth
Celebrate God for all He's worth

Premium Member Money

Worthless paper that purchases souls
makes a poor soul a king
makes a king a god
The more you have the more you want
nothing is ever enough
Palaces, planes and yachts
wine lust and satisfactions
Art jewels and gold
The Fountain of Youth is a Swiss Bank Account
The richer you are the more famous you become
a celebrity for nothing you done
Opulent and pampered lifestyle
exquisite fashion finest foods
All the friends money can buy
Spend spend spend
The Best, The Most, The Biggest

I squeeze my hands between the couch cushions
looking for loose change. Hear the jingle of the ice cream truck
see the happy anticipation of young faces
Forget it, use the credit card and off they run
for a summer treat.  Money it is never enough...
