Premium MemberFebruary Flex

Between the iron's echo, seven moons have shaped  
this flesh to tempered steel—each rep a whispered vow,  
a calculus of sweat where discipline escapes  
the ghost of who I was. The mirror shows me now:  

a shadow split in two—one clawing from the past,  
one carving forward, raw, through protein,

I Tried To Find You

I tried to find you,
Tried, tried, tried to find you.
But you’re hiding from yourself,
Behind a wall of bricks that seem
So, so, so
Unbreakable
Making it impossible to see you. 
For who you really are.

You’re afraid of letting go,
Of the past.
And moving on to fast.
Holding on to memories
Good and bad,
Is what you like to do.
Making it impossible,
For me

I Wish I Was Her

I wish i was her
She is courageous , she is bold
She does not care about the thoughts of the world
Above all when she loves she loves wholeheartedly 

I wish i could meet her once more
Like i did a few years back
But is she still there
Or did the bitterness of the world bring her down

She always

Self-Discovery

In the realm of introspection, my friend,
Let go of the desire to possess, to hold me tight,
For I am but a reflection, a flicker in the night.
Instead, turn your gaze inward, delve into your core,
Where the universe resides, an infinite store.

Seek not to grasp me, but fathom the depths,
The labyrinthine chambers of your own self.
In

I forgive them now,
I realize I'm the one
Who has to sort out
The mess they had made themselves
And could never figure out.

Premium MemberMom's Christmas Day Decision For Self-Improvement

“I saw Santa last night,” the tot said.
“He is BIG, and his suit is bright red,
like the robe Mama wore!”
Mama silently swore, 
“No more sweets, high-cal foods, or white bread!”

Self Improvement

Self improvement mostly
Comes with self learning,
Comes with self yearning,
Comes with self training,
Comes with self believing,
Comes with self understanding,
Comes with self helping,
Comes with self participating.

So, before you take action that smothers,
The self improvement of others,
Look at helping Mothers,
And Fathers,
Who don't want their children waiting on others,
To help them through life's bothers.

Self Improvement
Haiku: by Miracle Man

How to get ahead,
means wake up, get up, lace up,
be dependable.


My Grandfather once said
he’d never heard of anyone dying from hard work.

Premium MemberWho Claim To Love

Who claim to love but build walls of separation,
Do not understand the meaning of love, at all;
While persisting in false expressions of the meaning
Of love, they thrive on their own self-righteousness.

Premium MemberToday, I Resolve

Today, I resolve…
	…to finalize important plans
	and get them underway,
		…to eschew unkind words
		and displays of anger,
			…to help someone become
			the person they want to be.
Today, I resolve
	…to repair something
	I left in disarray,
		…to come to the aid of
		someone in danger,
			…to demonstrate the values
			of fairness and honesty.
Today, I resolve
	…to be a better person
	than I was yesterday,
		…to do a good

I have several toxic habits - I know - because I read an article on the web.
It’s a miracle I’m not an axe murderer, based on what the experts said.

I use “should” biased judgements - when things go amiss.
I think about the future, when settling down to rest.
I obsess on defining the “best part” in

Losing Sleep

I love talking to you
Staying awake till my tongue turns blue 
Clinging on to every word you say
But things feel different 
When you're voice is away
Staying up after zero two
Watcha doin?
How are you?
Too awake to fall asleep at three
Don't be mad at her 
My problems belong to me

Self Improvement
1/29/2018

Work-shy men spend a lifetime operating in a hole,
Having let go of the rope of sacrifice they can’t climb out.
For every encouraging thing another might offer,
Come three adverse reasons why they can’t.

Self improvement isn’t a pipe dream that you just wish for,
Some choose the path of least resistance
Having frequent “woe is me” moments;
Continuous self
