Tonight, I do not feel so saved,
I do not feel so good or right,
Tonight, I feel so close to death,
That pains in my heart do not bring me fright,
Tonight, I feel like a lost soul,
I...

First Quail Hunt
When I turned twelve, Dad bought me a shot gun
Thought two sons hunting with him, would be fun
My brother also got his at that age
They were Remington Wingmaster, 12 gauge

Dad had two Pointer bird dogs,...

Pain Again Part 2
>'Oh no.'  Then she said to me.
'I see the problem.  Don't worry Stanley.'
Soon as she left, the pain, hurt so.
Will she return?  She will I know.

That she came with others too.
All seem...

Botanic
After a short run
The road takes a diversion :
A curvilinear path.

Throwing a long lush green shadow,
The woods devoid of sorrows
Invites the heavy down power.

I peep into my heart
Behold a guy of five-six years old
Collecting withered...

Selling Us On Fear
Do you ever get the feeling..
That this whole place is bull****
Wishing to run away
But they even own the wilderness
	
Sick of all the f***ing lies
And fed up with the politics
Watch them turn an eye
And smile in...

Premium Member The Heart of God
Sometimes it seems like God doesn’t care,
We pray and pray and nothing happens,
The pain and sorrow get worse and worse and we wonder? 
Does God have any concern at all for me?
But see, God’s timing...

Premium Member Friendless
It happens to everyone/
All we want is a few/
To be called a true friend/
To show us that there's others out there/
Just like us, so we open ourselves/
To the job of finding true worthy people/
To surround...

Thwarted
They say that it’s smart, and ultimately wise,
for many passwords a person to devise,
to protect access and block meddling hands,
stopping those e-thieves and other brigands.

So I make up code words, a vast array,
I must use...

When moving to a new location
Love to survey the land
Finding the nearest gas emporiums
A Starbucks close at hand

McDonald's which I frequent often
Food stores with all the best deals
Office supplies, lumber yards
Great restaurants for yummy meals

Shifts
Earth’s here quaking,  
while I’ve been thinking
of shifts.
Like the shift in love,
the shift in economy:
the dollar-fat trolls
who play tricks.
The many wounded and
the sick.
I see a haze of gray
smoke, it seems
I’ve been hiding in
my dreams,
waiting...

Cold Spring Street
Cold Spring Street

When I was young
I could walk far on sidewalks
For it was a different time then.
Corner to corner
Across the busy avenue
Up Prospect Hill and down the long street.
But when I was late to return

The days and nights are long, hard and heavy
A blank look at my burdensome third leg
Laying at a mocking distance from me
Suppresses me down upon my spring bed
“What a nice but short run I had“,...

Aw, she thought she was the perfect cat's meow!
Meaningless Poetry made her tingle.
You could even hear her bold crown jingle.
Nobocdy was as good as she, anyhow! 

Here she comes now, such pietic expertise! 
Kiss her...

Imagination
There is a gate in the midst of 
A small garden, maybe a red or 
White. 

I went over and met a dwarf who
Claimed its possession of the gate,

This is my gate and area, what...
