We Owned Everything And Worried Less

There was a certain time
we couldn't be a minute apart,
our happy hearts knew no hurt;
we lived in a real Paradise!

Today, we stare into each other eyes
and see what the harm has done to us;
joy is not pain but conviction remains:
we owned everything and worried less!

What matters now is that we go on as many others,
but

Owned All To You

Pray like it's a noise
Unto God's ear
Hope as it becomes a voice
The Almighty loves to hear

Every morning is a prove 
Our waking uprising love
Hopeless darkness night brought
Power that restore our hope and thought

Each running day
While we pray
May our sins be forgiven
Cement our hopes in heaven

Protection is a task
You furnish as we ask
Only your love
Can truly

Premium MemberWoman-Owned Green Beans

Woman-owned green beans won't string you along,
But if you're a man, it’s likely you're wrong.
Woman-owned green beans, our virtues extole,
Hand-picked from the bush, eschewing the pole.
Woman-owned green beans for the man of the hour,
We’d best make that two, they still need a shower.
Woman-owned green beans are never on sale,
‘Cuz working for less is beyond the

Premium MemberThe Cat Who Owned Dogs

The cat who owned dogs was boasting loudly the other day.
That she had the means to convert them with her ample pay.
She made them wear whisker masks that made them look like cats.
Then she indoctrinated them into an army that chased big rats.

The dogs stood behind her and waited for her whistle command.
She made them

Material Possessions Are Owned Only By Selfish Hearts

Don't be fooled by material possessions
that are owned only by selfish hearts
and the more they hold onto them tightly,
the quicker they'll disappear;
surely, they can make life much easier,
but not a peaceful one full of serenity.

Is it everybody's dream to own everything enough
to fulfill their materialistic needs through times of uncertainty...
if inside there's an emptiness deeper

Owned - Mental Abuse

To portray a different facet
That the outside world believe
A spectacle a performance
A web of lies spun to deceive

Chastised another day now
This pattern is well worn
Tolerance my saviour
Of a life threadbare and torn

Know not to voice opinion
Nor bring attention my way
Pass through this life your shadow
A different life I often pray

Fear, your sharp words heard
Restrain me

Owned By Angst

I sweat when I’m nervous,
Its my trait,
Not by choice,
Anxious,
My fate.

When I’m first to show,
Last or out smarted,
Just the thought of being anxious,
Means that it’s started

Sweats come,
Mouth drys,
Run away,
Want to cry,

Mop my brow,
How,
No tissue,
Big issue,
Some one speaks so I have to react,
Retract,
Will they see me sweat,
Think I’m weird,
It’s everything I’ve ever feared.

Deep breaths,
Need to stop muttering,
Eyes

Premium MemberOwned By a Dog

If you have never been owned by a dog,
you maybe do not know this, but there
is no one more wiggly and giggly and in 
your lap faster than a dog

You can push her away, and scold her,
spray water all over her, and she will
joyously jump all over you, rubbing her
buttocks and fur in every pore

Premium MemberGangs Owned the Block

I started my teaching career in a Chicago middle school as a sub.
Our cars were locked up so they would not be vandalized during the day.
We were expected to leave by 4:30, so we would be safe.
One time I saw a bunch of children chasing one child, and two were holding bats.
Children told me they

Mightily snatches prey

DRIFTING TO BE OWNED 

The spotlight shining bright on the stage glares
I tend to melt away in my shadow
When the cacophony of clamour blares
I find me lost in the shimmer of show.

Seek solace taking me to calm forest
The dark winding pathway takes me nowhere
A bird of lost wings in deserted nest 
I’ll fly again, find

Once Owned By a Bird

Once Owned By A Bird

To me whole thing was completely absurd;
Was the weirdest thing I ever had heard;
Final result,
Total insult;
Trump has a brain once owned by a bird.

Premium MemberRestoring Cooperatively Owned Education

When the last remaining Yang propagandist
against deeply yin-suppressed pedagogists
falls back in love with cooperative educational love,
we will learn to live forever
as one EarthTribe
with integrity's richest bilateral potential.

When the last competing retributive jurist and counselor
and parent and ecopolitical leader 
sees past his WinLose ecopolitical assumptions and theories
to find sufficient WinWin cooperative mercy
for bilateral yin-squared equals yang-fractal

Touch Owned By Midas

There are things that really delight us,
Like Trump having a case of laryngitis;
Heading South;
Down in mouth;
Thinks he has touch owned by Midas.
