So there's no need for voting rights
They all have the perk
Of going to work
Though a few may need to work nights!...

Defending 

the condescending 

Can you hear me screaming?

I’m dreaming

 Of reality

Of hospitality 

Of something so out of reach

Can you hear me preach?...

           It's called the New South
           Away from antebellum
           Peaches and Peachtree
           Terminus to Atlanta
           Southern hospitality...

When the Devil shows his hospitality
And tempts you with your own resentment
Do you flee, fight or freeze,
Or simply laugh and offer your hand 
In gratitude.

An international khiladi and royal animal
A symbol of courage, status and hospitality
An athlete and a good companion for journey
May you live to be a hundred....

Bitter sweet berry
Metaphor-celebration
Native peoples loss

Bloom like a crane-fowl
Shortened name over time.
Hospitality

Given by native
People, friends, whose strange gods set
Their end destiny...

Nothing can keep me down except gravity
Else I'd have to grab on to some nearby cabinetry
Or the neighbor's wife
Hanging on for dear life
To naughty parts thanking her for her hospitality!...

We are nothing but the guests to whom God has extended His hospitality

For that, we ought to be guarding and revering nature's universality!

Your home is a castle
Heart is your palace,
Your mind is a chamber
For thoughts to cherish.
A hut is a home
Where a rich heart abides
Not the size that matters
But the hospitality with rites.
Food may be simple
Tasty all the same,
Cooked on wood fire
A savour to claim.

She came in the winter. 
My Tiger shared of his food.
He did not begrudge her eating.
My Tiger cat is good.
This spring she bore a set of kits.
There are exactly four.  
Tiger watches as his feed
Is dwindling more and more.
We must go to the store.

Purple pauses peach pleasantries 
Offering hot coffee or sweet tea
Warm welcomes with charming smile
Sitting on the porch in southern style
Saying hey to everyone of y’all 
Thickest accent in the way you talk
Appreciative of nature that silver sings
In eyes and hearts of soul that dreams...

When the birds 
take back their language, 
when the trees 
unloose 
their tenderly hands from around you, 
when the air doesn't breathe 
and the fish are crying,
when the seas are tearing 
and the flowers whisper: 
No, you own nothing,
then remember:
You're visitor, honoring the hospitality...

Backhanded compliments are meant to disturb
Yet on surface pretend to be a polite white bird

Giving fake hazel humor or slighted cranberry concern
When the person pretending to teach needs to learn

Learn the lessons of southern hospitality amber and
If you’re guessing know you can catch these hands

Three little deer with no where to go
showed up last night and
slept on my livingroom floor.

I had forgotten to latch 
the sliding glass door. The
storm outside promised to be very cold.

When I saw their little faces
what else could I say... but,
“You're welcome for the night,
but tomorrow – back on your way.”...

New adventures from a small land
The barrier is broken
when the love is there
Many words spoken
yet few are understood
Still making it worth the adventure

Opening your home
and sharing you're time
all to bring comfort to another
That Christian hospitality
that can be seen worldwide
but only under ONE personage...

 Syrupy, sweet hospitality

 And beautiful Magnolia girls;
 Strong family values,
 Unbreakable bonds,
 And lifelong memories 
 Are Made in Mississippi
