Sudden
With a snap of the fingers, The drop of a hat, A life can be altered And that will be that. Though positive changes May happen that way, It’s mostly the bad things That heavily weigh. For something that’s sudden That no one expected Casts ripples of grief To each person affected. Yet life must go on In an alternate way, Though survivors remember The terrible day That divides...

They Can
If he could enter the military he would serve his country like his father and his uncle; If she could marry a man she would raise a family like her mother and her aunt; If they could attend college they would pursue their career like their siblings and their cousins; You know what? since they are able They all can! No "if" about it....

Premium Member My Friend Is the Ocean
My friend is the ocean, waters that glide, Rustling my footsteps and tousling my hair; Many the times that we walked side by side, A spark and forever, joined as a pair. Always a cloud there lay over its play, Dappled the sunlight that fell on my face; Heaving, its waters had something to say; Twilight with meteors it took for the...

Premium Member Super-sized meal undersized heart
I see him on the main streets aggressively panhandling ranting at things only he could see. He once surprised me in the Mcdonalds drive through banging on my car window with a fist filled with steam catching me totally by surprise barking something well-rehearsed but wild motioning for me to roll down the window. I quickly jerked away from his fifty caliber...

The Decline of Humanity
See the world around yourself, See the people around you— The scary face of people, The crying face of children. They are scared, lonely, and sad. They fear the world. See the fearless around the world. The mothers are crying with children in their hands, Praying for their children’s life, While others are praying for their children’s future To be bright. People say, “This is the...

How long dwell on should I
On fruitless life how long dwell on should I? On needless strife how long dwell on should I? Let me salute my foe’s fairest friendship, On faults and gripe how long dwell on should I?
