Premium Member Is That Old Lady Gone

The troll was delighted when a wrinkled up crone wandered in.
She had an unassuming air about her, and a giant wart upon her chin.
I can pop her in my oven he thought; I bet her flesh is mighty tasty.
If he had understood Broom Hilda, he would not have been so hasty.

BH was sizing him up. She could practically taste his thighs and hips.
She had taken down trolls bigger than him, some as big as battle ships.
She took out her bag of magic, and pulled out her wand of choice.
It was a beautiful dragon-scaled beauty from her cousin Ugly Joyce.

Troll was making plans to choke her when she gave her wand a swish.
He landed on his petootsie surprising his dog, crow, and fighting fish.
What is happening? They wondered as the old woman gave a jump.
She began to bash and kick him, turning him into a fleshy clay lump.

He was easy to put into the oven, but she had no idea how to turn it on.
He crawled out an hour later and asked his pets, is that old lady gone?
She had wandered into the village that was way down a cobbled hill.
The troll thinks of her often, for he has PTSD and nightmares still.

Life Without Muse

Inspiration has abandoned me my life without muse
 Creation just laughs at me what more can I lose
  Thought keeps pestering me to try and think again
   Concentration waves farewell to me  smiling with a grin

   Family seems lost to me though they are not to blame
  Friends no longer think of me the reason being the same
 Lovers simply ignore me as if I never existed
Strangers just look at me the outcast, the evil, sadistic

Pain seems to love me though for it never leaves my side
 Suffering is riding shotgun in this pains miserable ride
  Anger is boiling over tearing me apart seam by seam
   Aggression is sizing up all of the hated as I scream

   Positivity seems a little tied up to deal with my thoughts
  Negativity runs the race within me and never will be caught
 Physically my strength seems to be on extended vacation
Mentally my mind needs to eat for i am dying from starvation

Entranced

“Entranced”



Without the partner
where’s the dance?

Invisible
circling the room 
considering the cool
insubstantive Shallows

sizing minds, 
blood coursing 
through veins
fluttering hearts and feet

outside the edge
the true dance 
watches pulses marking time 
like metronomes 

It waits in the deep 
eventually instinct
cuts to the 
chase

for now it remains
fixated on you
it's hungry for 
entranced

Premium Member Dusty Glory Days

A tired voice and less engaged
You sit there nonchalantly
Never noticing my glance
As I casually look your way

Sitting in awkward silence
Downward weary eyes hollow
As distant as your dusty smile
You gaze off into the distance

I imagine your glory days
Spirited buoyant and cheerful
So long ago and wonder
Sizing up this empty shell before me

Laden shoulders act as testimonial
To long gone years of toiling
Of struggling to survive
Barely making ends meet

Now one foot out the door
Wishing somehow
You had the strength
To take the leap

Why In the Spotlight

THE SPOTLIGHT ALWAYS SHINING SO BRIGHTLY
PEOPLE ARE DOWN-SIZING ME
AROUND IN THIS CIRCLE, YOU SEE
NEGATIVITY ALL AROUND
A NON-POSITIVE ATMOSPHERE IN PLACE
NOT LETTING THIS BOTHER ME
I GUESS I'M IN THIS RACE
I STAND TALL AND WILL HAVE FAITH
AS GOD GIVES ME AMAZING GRACE
THE HATERS ARE WELL KNOWN
JUST PRETENDING WITH A SMILE
I AM WHO I AM AND PROUD TO BE
NOT LETTING THIS DRAMA BOTHER ME
NO ONE WILL DRAG ME DOWN
FOR I AM DETERMINED FOR MY DESTINY
MY PRAYERS TO ALL THAT CONTINUED TO TALK ABOUT ME
I AM STILL STANDING TALL YOU SEE
I MUST BE GOING SOMEWHERE GREATER 
SO LET THE LIGHT SHINE, AND THE BLESSINGS CONTINUE
I HAVE A LARGE PLATE WITH AN AWESOME MENU
POSITIVITY, NON-NEGATIVITY
AN ATMOSPHERE WITH LOVE AND PEACE
NOT THE HATERS FROWNED ALL AT ME
THE TREE HAS BLOSSOMED, AND THE VEINS RUNS LONG
IN A GREAT PLACE OF RICHNESS HAS GROWN, AND NOW IS SHOWN.


Final Sign

Talk about power struggle
I've been in the middle of it
Ever since mum and dad hit a puddle
And they were like they'd had enough of it 

We were young to see the cracks
Maybe we sat on the cracks
Or we were the cracks ourselves
Cause they'd argue in front of us 

We were part of the conversation,
but not in a nice way
Cause we were mummy's shield
From the blows and insults dad would hurl 

All we remember was we then saw dad less
Then mum became more withdrawn
And she lost her glow soon after 
Cause we were overwhelmed in debt 

We had to change schools,
First time for me and my sister to be apart
I wondered why did I have to go with dad
And leave my sister behind with mum 

It was hard already that life had changed
From all those drapes and grapes
To now torn clothes and down sizing
That's how powerful that final sign meant

The Antics of a Would Be Mamas Yoyo Thief

The Antics Of A Would Be Mama's Yoyo Thief
(now a penchant with less Zionist trenchant ululation to vent.)

Not a peep passed thru mine -
aye vaguely attest
what ten? eleven? twelve? age
of following anecdote at best
guest, but no
doubt yours truly
with figurative heart in chest
scared puny meek boy

tight lipped silently confessed
to foiled attempt, sans trying
unsuccessfully to steal a yoyo,
     inviting tummy prepubescent
unbuttoning, a substantially
sprawling Holy skype sizing breast
of mine upon be nabbed,
thus aye didst detest

foolish kid ploy, and
(prematurely nipping
in the bud) messed
up potential life of crime
with first and only
shoplifting heist jest
for getting caught no a pest
key yoyo, mama would

     (IF FOUND OUT)
axe me no quest
chin, but whack me itty bitty
teensy weensy derriere lest
quickly putting to rest
any Robin Hood
fantasy life of
high stakes crime pressed,

and squeezed out the noggin
with apropos punishment addressed
thankfully, neither parent
got wind, nor ever guessed
their beautiful darling 
     boy did test
petty theft, never
matured nor didst crest

into a profitable "yoyo
string Ponzi like 
     scheme," thus ballsiest
dare devilish and bitterest,
and laughably noble lest
act yours truly ever attempted
immediately ceased to shelve bravest
sleight of hand find

delve during broad est
daylight, I immediately
didst shelve, when clumsiest
initial foray into
the world wide web
tubby come cleverest
lad, this side of
     Lansdale, Pennsylvania 

     many damnedest
yesterdays ago, never
took another earnest
tempting gamble since security
detail nearly wrest
head possible zapped feeblest Ames?

to pilfer from other
Department stores if pressed
for money no matter,
I might miss an enforced
hated ballet class, 
     with abs salute zest!

How Custom Clothing Manufacturers Help Build Successful Apparel Brands

Building a successful apparel brand requires more than creative designs and effective marketing. A reliable production partner plays an important role in creating high-quality products that customers trust. Custom clothing manufacturers help businesses transform their ideas into professional clothing collections with expert support.

Working with quality clothing manufacturers allows fashion brands to access skilled production teams, premium materials, and advanced manufacturing processes. These manufacturers assist with design development, fabric selection, sampling, and final production to ensure products meet brand standards.

Custom clothing manufacturers also help businesses create unique apparel by offering customization options such as custom labels, embroidery, printing, colors, and exclusive designs. This allows brands to develop a strong identity and stand out in a competitive market.

For startups and small businesses, manufacturers provide flexible solutions, including low minimum order quantities and scalable production options. This makes it easier to launch new collections without large investments.

Quality control is another major benefit of working with professional manufacturers. They inspect materials, stitching, sizing, and finishing to ensure consistent product quality.

By partnering with experienced quality clothing manufacturers, apparel brands can improve efficiency, reduce production challenges, and focus on growing their business. A trusted manufacturing partner helps turn creative clothing ideas into successful, market-ready products.

Premium Member Lying In the Sun On a Warm Day

The roosters are in full glory crowing mode today.
Some dogs are challenging them now.
Between the barks and the ruffs and the coos and the caws
it is difficult to hear the traffic on the interstate.
An orange butterfly breezes down, seemingly from a tall oak tree.
The flutter of this insect brings my eyes to the sky.
A jet plane makes barely a noise as they dash past.
People on the way to somewhere.
I am lying on my back in the grass looking up at twinkling leaves.
A hawk flies purposefully past me a few times.
Measuring me for supper?
Sizing me up, to figure out whether or not she can take me home to her hawklets?
They would have a big feast if she could lift me.
She makes two or three more passes.
If she was a turkey buzzard I would have been a bit more worried.
I look at the dog. She was groomed yesterday.
Today she looks like the wild child of Borneo; there are bits of straw or leaves
all over her coat that looked super velvety and shiny when we came out here.
The tiniest ant I have ever met came over to see what I was writing.
She pranced around on the edge of my notebook.
Maybe she is a reader ant. Maybe my words make sense to her.
I ponder this and smile, lying in the sun, on a warm day, listening to the roosters and the dogs.

Naked Coffee Shock

Naked Coffee Shock

So.   It’s early Sunday morning in DC
Visiting my locale Mickey D’s
I’m not too bright about anything
Simply wanting a cup of Joe
Before I go to church
The help as usual is friendly and polite
(Some say they’re not but that’s alright)
2 ugly men walked in behind me
Clearly they were there to sin
Both had no clothes on so things went south
They were erect
(and I don’t mean posture or the building of a house)
I averted my eyes at the appropriate moment
These are hard times and getting harder
Not wanting to be party to this depravity and crime 
I tried to leave but…. Never mind…
 “Reach for the sky!”  The nude men shouted                      
Then struck up a conversation
(I thought this was salacious and unkind)
So.   I geared up my stronger serious mind
Became sophisticated and refined
I told them they are in the wrong place and time
Informed them the church is close to here 
If they were so inclined I’d take them there  
Repentance is a goodly and Godly thing
“Ridiculous!”  They cried 
They wanted more than a house of God
It was the apple pies they so desired
I told them they looked silly and kinda dumb
Reminded them they had no guns (obviously, they were naked)
There was no way to fake it
The only thing they threatened were some smiles 
So.  The manager told them there are no pies
And sizing up the situation, continued
“Can’t either of you read?”
The sign is clearly posted
“Shoes are required”  
You are not properly attired 
So kindly leave
