Last Resort
Can’t fly, no wings
no voice, can’t sing
Can’t act, no passion
wardrobe's out of fashion
For music, no ear

Our All Inclusive Resort
It came as quite a shock as we watched them build their fort; when suddenly we realized we run an all inclusive resort.
They get milk, juice, and snacks upon their requests; their clothes laid out neatly for them to get dressed.
They watch their favorite shows as they sit there on the couch;
don’t be too slow

Luxurious Resort
This is me hidden in the shadow
Standing in this cold corner of this resort
I listen to the people who are laughing
Passing by this greenery lot.
They pretend to be happy
But are they? Or not?
This resort is luxurious and expensive
But how much can you pay for a clean room
When having a dirty soul'
How much

The Last Resort
I am…
The last resort for all your problems
Come to me even when all doors have closed
I shall be waiting to give you succour
Because you’ll be needing it the most
I am the force that lifts you
Give you confidence that you need
To mingle again after a heart-break
Unmindful of mine, your ego I shall feed
You only come to

The Red Jacket Resort
I went into town for usual errands yesterday
A nice day with everything seeming fine
I came home to news of the Red Jacket Resort on fire
It is the largest historic resort in town, nearby
The fire was huge, 20 departments from out of town responded
People jumped from balconies to get out for their lives
3 people were injured,

Enjoying Resort In Cuetzalan
I love this resort I write to my family who sent me here.
Cuetzalan is a marvelous town, I have no worries, sipping a beer.
Actually, I am lonely because loving couples are in the air.
My family sent me on vacation because they care.
Cuetzalan is as magical a town as Mexico ever had.
I truly am grateful for

Last Resort
When it gets like this
It always comes to that
All I've done is serve my obsessions
left with only one option
The question to be considered
Did I make a reservation?
Again I gambled with what
I couldn't afford to lose
Double downed against destiny
Showing a ten card up
It's a risky game to play
But such a painful

Last Resort
Some days I never want to end
Other days I want a reset button
No hesitation, mash it in
Two extremes, high and lows
Never a solid middle ground
Just not how my river flows
Two opposite sides of one whole
Forever a battle ground I can’t win
Last resort to fix my soul
Elevator ride to skyscraper loft
Maybe see if I can

Unsafe
Her accusations had taken their toll
The fights were hostile and neverending
He endured the abuse everyday
Sadly, it became the norm
He was breaking
He was becoming a shell of a man
Beaten down by the woman he thought he loved
Soon, he would be almost unrecognizable
One night, the fight was off the charts
She grabbed him by the collar
He couldn't take

Ode To White Pines Resort
Read today about a resort forced to close
A tale of rotten luck and heartfelt woe
31 years of entertaining repeat guests
With old-fashioned service, the very best
The owner and her guests all broke out crying
When she announced her life's dream was dying
The Governor's restrictions on reopening the place

Edenic Garden Resort
Edenic garden* landscaped as nature’s paradise…
Thus is how I perceive my vacation haven-resort:
Nestled within flower orchard where I can view beauteous sunrise
Adjacent to fruits trees grove --- offering environmental comfort
Near vegetable and rice terraces boasting of the Creator’s gracious support.
*Isaiah 51:3 For the LORD shall comfort Zion: he will comfort all her waste places; and

Last Resort
All me life I’ve been a bushman who lived mostly in a city
with dodging cars and sleazy bars and no-one showing pity.
A city is a concrete jungle, divvied by ribbons of tar,
and everyone must watch their back or bear a mental scar.
That’s why I call meself a bushman ‘cause I feel much healthier
tramping through the
