Premium Member Circle The Wagons
When the cold winds blow And the hostile natives are restless It’s time to wake up, smell the coffee And cut your losses. What is there to push back on, after all, But the bitter taste Of someone else’s resentment; The mighty wind of their off-gassing. The world is wild and cruel Even within the treacherous smile of neighbors When dog eats dog possesses...

Premium Member Gratitude
(“With Love”, 2017, original encaustic) Gratitude In a world of worries There are always complex problems And simple solutions. So easily our habits spin us Into dizzying heights and depths Our minds left seeking ways down and out. When instead all we need do To find a way through Is see it with a breath of gratitude.

Resentment Uphold
Money can be replaced or paid But resentment is hard to forget Because it comes from our heart That's why we are to assist first And think about it before we come up With a hurtful story Because it's not that like dirt That can only be taken a bath....

Claude Frollo
For I pry my damnest Her legs of an oyster For they do not give way Thy lacking in moisture This night of great troubles It pains me so My loins are aching Her pearls glow A beauty to behold Her spirit roam free I have created her cage A fear she will never love me To control her is to have her An immature thought And that...

Hidden Greenhouse
In her eyes alone They radiated with light When shone to another No longer a beautiful sight Why did they whither? Not appreciated among many And how it broke her heart But she still watered them plenty Locked away from the rest They sat in wait For a time and place Where another may appear For a moment of magic Another face as dear Other acceptable beauties were gazed...

i love you but not in the way one should, i feel for you in the way sunflowers feel for the sun you are my guide, my star- the one that brings me back, always. i stand tall under your rays, bright and cheery when you are there; then you set, and i feel alone; awaiting your return. red, streaking my yellow, resentment is a two headed sword- biting...

Premium Member No Anchor For Rancour
vexed to gall no anchor for rancour remains no safe harbor for grudges on crutches nor bitterness born of regret's aftertaste for we agreed to differ, with our bygones forgone to move on to settle on a calmer, sheltered shore, where rancour's chains and anchors hold fast no more and we'll ride out the tempest with sails lee-bowed or on ashore let it...

Resentment
People say forgive and forget They say live life without regrets; I say that's easier said than done Because vengeance is very fun; Just forget the pain that's been done unto me Cause you didn't experience my misery; If forgiveness makes you strong than I guess I'll always be weak Because my heart loves payback when awaken that's what...

The Bitter Taste of Resentment
Resentment is a negative emotion that casts aspersion upon others when perhaps the fault really lies in the depths of our own being. Deceiving ourselves is a flaw, one of our human imperfections, while expecting too much of others. Resentment leaves such a bitter taste. Rancor inflames both heart and soul, so, keep your ire under control....

Premium Member Are You Angry
When I see injustice bribe The heart with hope The mind with confidence The soul with enlightenment Anger silences my dreams Colors my voice, my speech In hues of exasperating need When I see darkness begin To win the struggle, making sin Feel like it should be the answer The reason, the way between Doubt and fear – silencing joy With noise so vicious it pours Pandemonium into...

Like a knife, inflicting the tragic slash Words spoken, violent and ferocious Intense, brutal, vicious vulgarity Hesitating only long enough to speak Into the spirit, breathless disrespect Anger so vehement it feels like a fire Burning away the goodness, the joy With darkness that silences all hope For the moments when two hearts Shared the wonder of sweet love Like a knife, directed toward dreams Echoing...
