Metamorphic rock, move? Groove.
Combustion and shift.
Spiral orbit, red reprove.
Continents to drift.
Rogue wave, shattered basin.
Flood, thy waters rise.
Hurricane, dark fire, hasten.
Cimmerian prize.
Volcano, explode and flow.
Steady as you go.
Broken gold upon the bow.
Vehicles to tow.
Row, oarsman. Pole thy skiff well.
Here is hell? Do tell.
Flames upon the trees may swell?
Alarum and bell.
Pits and pots, forget-me-nots.
Freedom in our thoughts.
Revolution round the dots?
Red as any hots.
Order, dancing star, thy jar.
Ajar door of car.
Pretty lady, shoot for par?
Forever seems far.
Stipend, append. Letters send.
Heartbeat rock, bend? Friend:
Everyone is on the mend?
Transitions to tend.
Yucca bush, yawn. Yon yawndrift.
Chasm, fissure, rift.
Merchant, sir, the shortest shrift?
Well, life is a gift...
NO TITLE
If I was a girl in this modern world, I shoot for this stars the first woman on mars, a doctor a lawyer, a CEO. Education and hard work, my ticket to the show. Nothing could stop me, but that's half the tail. The other half has a different pay scale.
Relentless, pervasive, there's nowhere to hide. If I were a man, I'd blacken that eye. How long can I run? Barely living in fear. What will he do next? I cannot work here. Where can I go? I can not give in. He'll just keep pushing, again and again.
It's the same everyplace. It's not what I saw. Dreams became nightmares, escaping their claws. Head on a swivel. What did I hear? On every last front, year after year. If I want to move up, then I've got to play, if it's not that, there's glass in the way.
We have to do better, If we call ourselves men. this can not go on. It's time to step in. We start with our boys, we take on our kin. Protecting women is what makes us men. don't let them whisper that snyde innuendo. Confront and demean him, toss him out of the window. I don't care what it takes, if it's something you do, Get your boot off her neck. We're coming for you.
Step one: To change your life make sure you live (Never let an opportunity become a miss)
Step two: Do what makes you well you (Always be who you are never not be the brightest star)
Step three:Never change your vibe (Your vibe attracts your tribe)
Step four:Learn to Love never hate (Life is too short for dark clouds)
Step five: Get outside (Don’t take for granted the sunshine)
Step six:Never be afraid to see (See the good in the world and have it falling at your feet)
Step seven:Make your mark (Always shoot for the stars)
Step eight:Find something that makes you smile (True happiness it takes a while)
Step nine:Love yourself (no one knows your heart better than you so treat it good,keep it’s rhythm pure and true)
Step ten: Live again and again (Never stop dancing,Never stop singing,Never stop dreaming because you got this feeling)
I aim and shoot for the sun
Blind me, I come undone
I feel the heat beneath my skin
Your iridescent soul within
Meets mine
Like a heatwave in December,
You're the flame from the ember
You're what I remember
When you go down
You stay close to me
It was a wonder,
How could people live so short sighted?
Until a walk outside among them revealed,
That their compulsions had chased away the stars.
When you're surrounded by lights within arm's reach -
And every urge is reciprocated ten-fold,
Then how could you ever, in your wildest desires -
Possibly expect to shoot for the sky?
A friend is like a shining star,
That shines both near and far,
Even when you acted bizarre,
They stay, just as they are.
They laughed with you during your bad days,
And help you grow in many ways,
They guided you through your tears,
And they guided you through your fears.
They knew all your thoughts and dreams,
They cheered you on through your craziest schemes,
Even when you wanted to be an astronaut,
They cheered you on, no matter what you sought.
This is not a goodbye, my friend,
Our journey has not reached its end,
So don’t let your shining soul cry,
Let’s take our dreams and shoot for the sky.
Sure-footed on rugged hill
Likes life on mountain range
Rolling grassland fits the bill
Short horns reveal their age
Ovines in endangered stage
Males change from Brown, grey to black
Deft climbers blend with rock
Bristly manes, white saddleback
Female has agile walk
Dusky females never baulk
Feeds on various grass, leaves
Spots danger to snort, run
Predators - tigers, dholes, wolves
Humans poach, shoot for fun
Human deeds have their life done
they call it our independence
we were never dependent
they'll rape our only mothers
make us repent it
they'll sell our land
and bomb us when we tent on it
they'll condemn our freedom
after forcing us to shoot for it
morals are futile to the fed
to the hungry
well,
different story
—Tony O'manachain
We dig a hole deep enough
To swallow our entire future
All while our lover giggles on the other end
Of a senseless phone call.
We chase the moon and shoot for the sun
On a night when the stars hoard their light
Just because our lover is bored of the night
And we stumble around until daybreak's light.
We weave words into a piece
We joyfully call a poem, a lullaby
Because our lover is tired of the usual
Boring ways of saying "I love you."
We are indeed fools for love
Shunning the words of wisdom from above,
For our lover loves that song—
The sound our heart makes when we flatter.
strength only comes through the higher power
beautiful like a lightning flash
thunder claps like a wild wave crash against the light reflective sun
turn the other cheek to heaps coals of fire on your enemies,
churning every so often in the sea's bewildered breeze
turning darkness and caves to bright shining light
Be a shining light to the darkest mysterious tunnels in life
Lets cut off the fighting and strife
Shoot for light instead of death without fearing for our life.
Fight the good fight on the side of life...Light will guide the way
There's more to life than the material trappings
that keep us stuck & looking
for more
I implore you to free yourself & search for YOUR
meaning for at the core of you
lies this lifes purpose
Don't get caught up in the net worth of the surface
of things
& get hooked by the bait being dangled before
your eyes
Realize the angles are designed with you in mind
as to trap you in another lifetime of
darkness disguised as light
You won't always choose right but at some point
the lesson must be learned in order
to earn your wings
Take flight away from the things that keep you
grounded to lower planes of existence
& seek more fertile plains with
less resistance
You'll gain a higher perspective once you soar
above that which offers no love
but instead favors hate
Shoot for the stars but prepare to land in the
clouds if you miss
& embrace fates kiss along with the universe
& its lofty goals
You never know where this life will take you
but go as your steps are guided up
the ladder to a place where
matter is of no consequence
What matters most is the consistency of
your steps & your willingness
to keep going even when the
circumstances of life
become intense
I don't want to chase down the sun on the beach,
I don't need to stand in the sand with the ocean at my feet,
I don't care to stare into where the water and atmosphere meet,
if it's not where you'll be
Sleep is still sleep even without the promise of a dream,
but why shoot for stars if the moon doesn't dance in their gleam,
I s'pose my hands will never know how far my arms can reach,
if it's not where you'll be
I'll never set sail in the billow of a breeze,
looking down upon the crown onto a canopy of trees,
the song my heart may sing will forever be off-key,
if it's not where you'll be
Shoot for the moon and even if you miss, you'll land among the stars
Show me a glint of light from the moon
and I will show you hope
Her beauty and her elegance is never marred
Show me a glimpse of her glow
and I will show you love
Her titan strength is in her luminous glare
Show me the stars and I will understand the moon
if I shoot for the moon and land on the stars, that's ok.
Stand straight don't look down. Face the sky not the ground. Be you know who you are. Set goals shoot for the stars. I'm my brothers keeper. / I'm my brothers reeper. I'm gonna teach you everything I know. Pay attention I'll show you how to play hoes I'm not your hero let's keep it real. Walk your own path get off my heals.just remember your in control. Listen to me because I know. Bro seriously give me some space. No you can't hit this move out my face. Make life a party drink and get high. Knock a chic off thank you goodbye.Stand straight don't look down. Look to the sky not the ground. Damn you bugging what's the deal. You don't want this demon and that's me being real. This high is special like floating on air. Hit it slow dude there's not much to share Fine go ahead come meet your doom. One 2 ready set boom. Look at him look at what you created. Hold him up steady now it's you that you hated. His demon your demons are now one in the same. His addiction so strong he lives life in pain.. Narcan after narcan a ending so tragic. Stand up look at it, your brother in that casket. I'm My brother's keeper /I'm my brother's reaper.
The USA will shoot for the moon

The trip will appease
