Premium Member Pushing Up Daisies
my mom’s not pushing up daisies having gone to her eternal rest in Spring her restful place is where her soul has gone back to earth with its raindrop-moss (springy, as if for a tiny bunny or hallucination-size “wabbit”) off track, the violet urn next to the frame that holds my mother’s face and my attention confused by the unscattered ashes contained. she’s there or elsewhere or both...

Pushing Dead Daisies
The skin remembers, even when the mind tries to forget Scars etched deeper than bone, a roadmap of agony They say time heals all wounds, they lie Time only buries them deeper under the layer of lies I used to feel joy and sorrow, life danced with empathy Now? A hollow echo in a vacant music hall Hope, they ripped it...

Pushing
Pushing keep pushing The nurse began to call And out came into this world A cute baby doll Pushing keep pushing A rock that will not budge And soon your wiry sinews Will have a nice firm bulge Pushing keep pushing For a deal that does not crack One fine day you will hit pay dirt It will just come like whack Pushing keep pushing For justice if...

Foreboding of a tempestuous storm, it blackens as it draws near, a cumulonimbus in towering form, extending to the troposphere, So cast off mooring and slacken the line, break free while there's still time, 'cause I'll pull you under if you don't let go, Save yourself and abandon ship, I'll take on water and sink...

Quiet Now
You sit there rocking, no more people talking, drifting with the wind across the grain. It’s peaceful like you planned it. No one make’s demands it’s quiet now and every day’s the same. It’s a shame that something pure and free, became a ball and chain tied to misery. Like an island separate from the land, the waters made you miss the life you planned. So...

Pushing the Button
Practice the pause. When in doubt, pause. When angry, pause. When tired, pause. When stressed, pause. And when you pause, pray.” —Toby Mac ~~~~~~~~ A movie runs on. In a high tower a facsimile of your open eyes burns through a celluloid strip of film. A pinpoint of heat made a hole - It burned through perception. A sentient hand reaches out from mindfulness, it punches...

Pushing Back On Fear October 22, 2023 Miracle Man In a heart that’s trusting the Lord, fear and defeat can’t live for long. When I can’t quickly forget something, I push back on negativity. I can choose Him instead of self, for God is in control of my life. Something was often hidden, among thorny situations I endured. ...

Pushing past fear Pushing past obligatory oblivion Pushing past this pain's sphere Trying to feel things never felt before Never know or seen in darkness desires Trying to be all I can be Pushing past the burn Pushing past the sweat Pushing past the point of no return Looking into the abyss Feeling it look into me Looking over the rainbow it...

Crank the lever push the button turn the dial cover the bones under ancient homes not stirring of things under a stark sapphire sky turn the crank flip the switch watch the pistons push n pull hot metal into odd ornate objects designed in eight sides fit into sacred secret sockets how quaint they are this is machine this is god this is...
