so my own paltry sums can only carry those values
I am willing to re-invest...

Driving home one day after hours of monotonous office work,
Saw a man sitting by the road; looked as one down on his luck.
Paid small notice to the figure; my lonely life was in a rut.
He...

Why are we so far away from each others thoughts?
And we are not so thoughtful to each others needs
And we live under the same roof on the same bed
But our minds are miles...

this ominous progression, showed it would not be long

of torrential rain, on the land below.  Though rain bode

I decided to drive through the city today 
Instead of the freeway.  And,

I still remember when we first met.  
It was like receiving my little red bike under the tree
so long ago. The...

There are some,
from birth are marked by melancholy,
The silent shades of sorrow,
are their congenial haunts.
The glades of grief are the only places,
their leaf can flourish.
Others, who through some crushing misfortune, 
Being brought so low,
never holding...

Recovering From Life

Life, when full of sadness, can break a person’s spirit.
It happens all too often; you can see it in their eyes.

Women, beaten, ridiculed, and abused by...

Every boy has his toys,
and each girl her dolls;
and as they grow they are put away where light can't enter:
there in that closet, which often memory recalls
how delightful and merry their days were,
but wishing for...

All through her happy infant days she wore that winning smile 
She loved the colors nature gave, but sensitive and shy 
She suffered from the...

Panting in low moans
Meandering through dense brush
Shrouded by evening sky above a forest

Crystallized by frozen branches
Oaks, maples, pines
Coffin wood encasing icy earth

The amber-eyed predator’s fur
Damp and matted
No prey in sight as hunger grows

While creatures huddle...

It all happened so fast
No one had time to react
What to do now that the Honeywagon is gone
Do we really want this day to dawn
Reality hits, how could Charlie be so heartless
He tells the females,...

She pants in low moans,
Meandering through dense brush,
Shrouded by evening sky above a forest.

With damp and matted fur,
An amber-eyed predator sees no prey;
Her hunger grows.

While creatures huddle with their clans
In feathered nests and sheltered lairs,
She...

I talked to a somber corpse as distant as lone
Transparent, defiant, obstinate, drone
It wanders aimless, no future nor past
It's given to whimsical, selfish, trespass
It said: "I glide through and live in the moment
I feed on...

As consciousness escaped me,
My journey got under way;
Floating on clouds of thoughtlessness,
The subconscious came in to play.

My spirit left my body;
Watching it from above;
Departing while it lay sleeping;
Flying away like a dove.

I journeyed into the...

At the stroke of midnight, a brand new day dawns
Heralding the commencement of a fresh page
In our lives where our heart no longer groans
Over challenges that somehow drew outrage

At the turn events the previous day...

Why won't you leave me
I beg and plead for this sadness to go
I pray and hope for this anger to subside
I dream and yearn for these thoughts to drain out

Once I loved you,we were family...

The Pope Came to the Congress
By Franklin Price
9/25/2015

The Pope came to the Congress
Both houses gathered there
His excellence had no defense
For their uncooperative share
In the state and the condition
That this nation now is in
Cannot repeat the...
