For,some fascinated to drilling mud,more satiated with coconut ground

What are some things you learned
along life's way
better before you went to school
as compared to after?

Oh, you mean like love
of cooperative natural-spiritual learning

divorced from cooperative spirit,
required to out-perform my siblings
and...

With a nice haunting melody

Love is a thornbush.
Pretty to the sight
yet, in the end;
it's prickly touch
is unimaginable.

  bub-blub tump-tump-tump-tump
I was bitten by my wrong choices;
Invited and enticed by my voices;
The ineptitude seemed happy portraying,  beating heart
In there stepped desperate loneliness, bleeding heartbeats
Of unfortunates that are decaying

I won't but I know some dummy will
Ya'll think it's funny still
Out in the country hills

He does not glance back. Instead takes out his cell phone.
Walks more quickly, afraid of her. Afraid she will chase him.

Respect cannot be hidden.
Who is grateful to have the past gratitude?
Respect is the best human sentiment which has no other substitute.

Your loving persistence
mixed with blissful insistence
and reassuring assistance...
is always bestowed so sweetly.

Your charm is beguiling
giving me smooches while smiling

all of your praises quite neatly.

You are constantly there
amidst the angst and...

My friend, how did he go so wrong?
Funny and jovial, was he, as happy as one can be.

Beneath their family Christmas tree!
Leaving behind, children...three.

He never had a...

When you lay to waste
all that you have built,
And undo
all that you have learned.

When you are done
wallowing in shame and guilt

Come unto me
and I will accept thee.

When you find
no place...

Yearn for a little love, a splash of caring.
They learn to grasp,
How to survive, extremely fast.
They use their time to sit and ponder,
What lies ahead for them up yonder?
A half collapsed...

Picasso painted me ugly.
Two lips slung over a rusted hanger.
One eyebrow burnt for attention's sake.
Let's tell Grandma how much fun we had today.
Picasso is still at work.

Monet swallowed your stupidity.
Five teeth missing and nary a...

Travel in peace, dreams of mine,
Into the land of color, the wonderful land of noble memories,
So that my blind spirit might see through the turquoise moon's eyes,
So that my tired spirit finds its peace in...

long before they're forced to experience the life ahead

with its many challenges that are

enough to break the strongest will

though most succeed in becoming upstanding
