Memory's of Anger

Have you ever thought about
emotional memory chambers 
I notice when I get angry
the memories link to other memory's

I never think about those thoughts
when I am happy But When I am angry
I remember everything from the past
a memory collection for anger

Emotional thought chambers
parts of the brain devoted 
to collecting memory's of the past
Chambers of anger devoted to pain

We fought and I learned 
to go for a walk
sometimes I walked for miles
before the anger disappeared

How valuable where those walks
far better than staying
to continue the fight
anger is such a dangerous emotion

destroying your home 
destroying your life
far better to go for a walk
allow the energy to escape

talk the talk
when anger has gone
I guess in anger we all say the truth
but it's a truth tainted by anger

a truth that's not the same 
as when we feel happy
it's a truth that designed to hurt
the person thats hurting you

Premium Member Talk Is Cheap

you talk the talk can,
you walk the walk
talk is a manner’s talk of manner
you talk the manner can you walk the manner
a man’s manner is a man’s moral
you talk the moral can you walk the moral
talking is a cheap moral

talking is a cheap manner
moral is a cheap talk
moral is a cheap manner
talking is cheap,walking is highly
talking is cheap,walking is highly walking
talking is highly talking
talking is highly a manner of talking

talking highly is talking cheap
talking highly is walking the walk
cheap is highly a cheap talk
walking cheap is talking cheap
walking cheap is walking the cheap walk
walking cheap is walking the cheap talk
talking is talking a cheap walk

Supercallousfascistracistsexistnazipotus.
Yes the combination of those words sounds quite atrocious.
Clearly it describes a guy with serious psychosis.
Supercallousfascistracistsexistnazipotus.

The President of USA is really a big chump.
He spreads all kinds of nonsense when he is on the stump.
And when he got elected everybody was in shock.
Maybe he can talk the talk but he can't walk the walk.

Oh, supercallousfascistracistsexistnazipotus.
Yes the combination of those words sounds quite atrocious.
Clearly it describes a guy with serious psychosis;
supercallousfascistracistsexistnazipotus.

He's travelled all around the world and everywhere he goes
the people turn and shake their heads because he really blows.
When kings and queens and ministers all spend a day with him,
they all are in agreement that he's really f-ing dim.

Oh, supercallousfascistracistsexistnazipotus.
Looking at his food he risks arteriosclerosis.
Response from neighbors far and wide is turning quite ferocious.
Supercallousfascistracistsexistnazipotus.

The economic diagnosis' looking mighty grim.
His chance of reelection - hope to God - is very slim.
Everyone around the world is praying a great hymn
that he'll move to Gaza and purchase a kibbutzim!

Oh, supercallousfascistracistsexistnazipotus.
Looking at his food he risks arteriosclerosis.
Response from neighbors far and wide is turning quite ferocious.

THE CLOSER I GET TO GOD

the closer I get to God 
the more the adversary goes hard 
doing its best to disrupt my life 
as I elevate towards my Lord Christ 

I desire to talk the talk 
I aspire to walk the walk 
to step like my chosen Savior 
to strut with a christ-like behavior 

the closer I get to God 
the more the enemy tries to invade my heart 
with destructive tendencies 
to come between God and me 

I desire to talk the talk 
I aspire to walk the walk 
to step like my chosen Savior 
to strut with a christ-like behavior 

the Lord is never out of reach 
He promised if of Him we seek 
we will find and discover 
the unconditional love He has for all others 

draw closer to God and in Him rejoice 
let not the enemy come in to exploit 

desire to talk the talk 
aspire to walk the walk 
to step like your chosen Savior 
to strut with a christ-like behavior 

elevate, celebrate and resonate 
with the Lord God 
delegate, dedicate and venerate 
Him with your whole heart 

draw closer and you'll discover 
the unconditional love He has for all others

desire to talk to talk 
aspire to walk the walk 
to now step like your chosen Savior 
to now strut with a christ-like behavior 

the closer I get to God 
the more I need Him in my heart 

I desire to talk the talk 
I aspire to walk the walk 
to now step like my chosen Savior 
to now strut with a christ-like behavior

Premium Member Who Was Barbara

Who Was (is) Barbara
By Franklin Price
02/01/2022

Her mother was a Southern Belle, her dad from Yankee Land
She got the best of both of them, as you read, you'll understand.

She was small in weight and stature. Her good looks made me feel great. 
I felt we had a lot in common, so I asked her for a date.

She was  loving and was loyal, was my all my everything.
I was so glad, when she said yes, to the wearing of my ring.

She never did things half-way, was good at all the things she tried,
I saw that when we dated, that's why I took her for my bride.

Her intelligence exceptional, her love was so complete
Always set a good example, was non-accepting of defeat.

She said her prayers every night, to the good Lord up above.
She was a Catholic, I a Baptist, a mixed marriage, filled with love.

Our life began in sixty-nine. God lifted her in twenty-two
My sorrow almost overcame me. What was  I supposed to do?

Then I heard her voice, within my ear, saying, “I'm still here with you.
Carry on and make me proud, in everything you say and do.”

She's looking down and watching, helping me to walk the walk
If I listen very closely, she helps me also talk the talk

I know that she's still with me, in my mind and in my heart
I'll see her later on in Heaven, where we'll never be apart

Her deep belief, in Jesus Christ, went with her all the way.
She always lived, what she believed, now she's with him on this day.

Premium Member What's New

Throughout my life I've noticed,
That people like to talk;
But though they like to talk the talk,
Most don't walk the walk.

Most folks think highly of themselves.
Some more than they should.
They'll put on aires and talk about,
The ugly, bad and good;

Of all the people, places, things,
They're seeing, going, doing,
But be polite, be interested,
In what they say they're brewing.

Don't repeat a word you hear.
Don't take one word to heart,
For things change over night, you know,
Make you look like an upstart.

So if you're asked your take on things,
Say it's all news to you.
Just shut your mouth, let others talk,
Let them tell you what's new.

Premium Member Playing Our Song

Still playing our song,
Was it “ The way you look tonight?”
After all, the yester-years have whirled
big time into dizzy roller-coaster spins ...
 
If by romance you mean
toes twinkling by the sand,
where our feet met in tender July
as duskfall melted white
when wet kisses sprayed the breeze
on trills of vestal wedding chimes...
 
And jealous clouds witnessed
this dazzling pirouette for two;
eyes touching each other
twenty fingers becoming ten 
in wrapped ball of surrender...
 
That is too sweet to hang on dipping stars,
it may as well be romance...
but then, the garbage overflows
and laundry piling on double racks;
while that big time frown turns sleek,
after finishing off the house grind...
until arms enchantingly come at me


to relish " The way you look tonight."

"big time"-- 80s slang meaning" extremely,
 completely, in a grand way."

Premium Member P.D. Vs' Amy Gr33n,,Slam, Bam

P.D. vs' Amy Gr33n,,Slam, Bam Thank You Ma'am 


So Miss @my  Gr33n,
Do you think your s__t  is mean
Trying to compete
Do you really want to taste defeat
Your dose of medicine, had no effect at all
Your Slam, Bam Thank You Ma'am 
Was a sorry booty call.
Trying to talk the talk
Trying to bark and walk
All them words your are saying
Sounds like you are praying
Who really wants to listen?
Who really should care?
And what the hell is that S__t in your hair?
So you think you can play the part.
Before things fall apart
Please @my Gr33n stop before you fart
Trust me it does not matter If I let you win.
Your words are pointless and the idea is pathetic.
Please stop talking you are giving me a headache.
Just stop rhyming.
Sounds like your crying.
Okay pause.............as the moment goes bye.
Giving  you a minute before you break down and cry.
My words are a weapon, You know that right.
Next time shut your mouth, keep those lips tight
Let me just stop and bring this to an end.
@my Gr33n remember ....I am your friend

By:P.D.

((once again for fun...thank you Amy Green for the fun slam.))
    p.s. S__T stands for shot  if you are wondering,,he he he

Theres No Planet B

Did you see me before I died
I was the last white rhino alive

you have no conscience you are void of pride
you damage what we need to survive

the air you breath, the food you eat
natural resources you deplete 

the  waters rising 
the ice is sliding 

the planets clock is ticking down
yet we just stand and look around

Politian’s talk the talk
yet into disaster they just sleep walk

the young can see their future bleak
why are these Politian’s so weak 

the bosses fiddling while the sun burns mother earth 
milking her for all she’s worth

from the biggest whale to the humble bee
lets all pray we never need that planet b

Man's First Mistake

in the garden of Eden's bliss
one day a snake to Eve did hiss
take the ripened fruit from the tree
share it with Adam then you will see
so from the tree the fruit Eve did take
bringing about man's first mistake

they did not attempt to make amends
allowing God to forgive their sins
unrepentant to God, they disobeyed
He bade them leave Eden right away
It was an error of the worst
from that day on man was cursed

as arrogance to God is a sin
man had to rebuild His trust in them
God gave us a way through Jesus Christ
so He could come back into our lives
for It's not enough to just talk the talk
you must commit to walk the walk
so worship God and rejoice in His wake
a way to atone for man's first mistake
