The BoxI was grateful for the love of family and friends
But I was longing to hear your voice just once again
Then I came upon a box that I had not seen
There was a note that read ‘just a few keepsakes to you-from me’
I would recognize that handwriting anywhere
It was from you, my beloved my dear
I...

Assassinated AlphabetAbsolutely annihilated another one as adverbs and adjectives aimed accurately at both barking brown bulldogs, causing complete chaos.

PANGIE’s MEETING WITH GEORGE CHAKIRIS Of WEST SIDE STORY 4/3/2025
No, it was not a dream at all….
I was with George Chakiris by my personal request.
No,I was not in with crazed teeny boppers in a hall.
It was just George and I, from whom, I chose to learn from the best!
I wish I could tell you...

To JaneThrough shifting tides and skies of gray,
One light remained to guide my way.
Through storms and trials, you stayed by my side,
Whichever place, whichever time.
No fleeting love, no passing phase,
A bond that warmed my darkest days.
No matter the chaos, the pain or the fight,
You are my anchor, my shining light.
She grew up with a father’s name,
But...

A lone pattern in glow and gleam Fear not the countless stars that light the sky,
For many naysayers still will deny.
Find them a place where they must stay away,
The clouds will part, your star will shine today.
Each star, a lone pattern in glow and gleam.
So nothing dims its light or halts its dream.
The clouds hold space to cradle your surprise,
For many reasons,...

TALKIN' WITH HERSCHWalkin with Hersch up the avenue
b-bop cat telling me of Paris
Ginsberg and Burroughs
Like he's Chris C. man
And we're heading for land
On crystal and coffee
Dig the different cries
Sirens, con men and broken
People asking for change hard
To tell the difference walking
Pass eyes of despair like
Everywhere man like everywhere
You can feel the heat of the
Street ain't a thing...

With everything you do
And you can do most anything

You truly are amazing
A tiger through and through
And to top it off you're gorgeous
There's no one else like you...

The mood of JudgementI am here to invest,
I am not worried about the rest,
I know it is a test,
It is not a jest,
It is also not a game of chess,
I don't know if it is everlast,
It is also a game of trust,
I don't know when it will burst,
As if it is a must,
I know it was a blast,
If...

Its Your Decision, What You Going To DoThe reality of life is
people will always judge you.
Be aware, but don’t live in fear.
You must love yourself
and know who you are.
That is the spark
that ignite one’s eternal flame for all to see,
that can’t be put out!
Unless you blow it out!
Ignite your spark
that is the...
