But i stand up now
Rising off the groung
You cant keep me down
I will fight....

Mitt Romney proudly promoted
The GOP is devoted
To keep women down
And all white, not brown
When the UFO exploded...

Pretty princess accordion playing clown
Skips her truth sideways and upside down
I watch her sprinkle joy all over town
Glad that no one else can keep her down....

I'm like a Phoenix
Rising from the ashes.
Becoming stronger.
Ready to fight
Any battles that comes
My way.
I will rise from the ashes.
No matter what
You can't take me down.
Can't keep me down....

Anxious of what exactly? 
I am not actually sure
Many possibilities 
Is there any type of cure? 

I feel that I'm not enough
I want to keep my head up
But I keep looking down 
I need to help myself...

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!...

Don't know
No how,
What,
Where, 
When,
And Why,
The days that I was down,
But know now I can't keep falling down,
Need to get up stay up,
And keep the ones I have.
If I search for others I might end-
Up Dead....

What is life all about,
When I am left without.

Everything that is around,
Just seems to surround.

I try to run away,
But i always lose my way.

I try to move on,
But I keep slowing down.

I will soon go under,
Hope I will be pulled asunder....

They tangle and they twist; wear diamonds on their wrist;
Their security is spying; and they say that you are lying;
You yelled and jeered and hissed; and now you’re on their list;
And with their time they’re biding; till they keep you down and hiding...

Raking Leaves

The leaves keep coming down

I see them tumbling with a frown

Their beauty won’t stay another day

The Wind is surely taking them away

Their season is over, it is plain to see

Now someone has to rake them, I guess it is me

I stand long, tall, and strong

I'm long, tall, and strong

Who are you to tell me I'm not

No one can keep me down 

We can stand strong together and I love you too

I stand long, tall, and strong 

I'm long, tall, and strong
Standing Strong...

On a tight rope
Way up high
I struggle to stay balanced
But, you grab the rope
Hoping I will fall into the net

Fighting to stay afloat
You keep me down
Just a game to you
But, my tears are real
Just like the dangerous game you have got me playing...

Outlook On Pain
Miracle Man
4/17/2024

God didn’t promise,
that I’d have no trials.
Nor that all my days,
would be filled with smiles.
Some days things occur,
that induce a frown.
But no temporary discomfort,
will keep me down.

My life is what I make it
Im trying to hold on
I keep slipping down
But my hope is long gone. 
I even fail at failing
I'm trying to let go
But I'm stuck here
Out of life I am bailing.
I am letting go of everything
But a hand catches my fall.
A friend that I can lean on,
my one for all....

Forgives Florida
     Not so much The Bahamas
                       Stay safe everyone

 Keep hunkering down                          
        This monstrosity shall pass
                           God be with you all!

I think something is wrong with me
I'm just wondering what it could be
My head just feels so thick
Maybe I'm getting sick?
Doc says it's called "stupidity"

I know I'm the smartest in town
And Doc is just a simple clown
Coz I'm the one that found
That the earth is not round
Which is why I keep falling down...

I’ll keep shining down with each breath you take.
May I blaze in your dreams before you awake.
And softly I’ll whisper, “Keep sleeping, my dear.”
Your faithful beloved, I’ll always be here.

Shades of gray, hover in the sky
Blue is seen as if to imply,
Don’t let the gray moods keep you down
The bright sun will erase your frown
Perspective is a choice to make
Something to give yourself or take
White clouds look like fingers reaching
Learn from great lessons they’re teaching

I fear that I’m falling for you hard
I fear that you will break my heart
As hard as I try
I can’t keep the walls up
They just keep crumbling down
I don’t wanna be hurt again
I don’t wanna hurt you
I fear for me
I fear for you
I fear for us both
But
Especially you since you know that
I am falling for you hard...

Now don’t get me wrong
I love that old song
I’ve been singing it most of my life
But it’s really quite loud
And the noise of the crowd
Is really annoying my wife
So please keep it down
Or take it to town
Before I have cause to regret
I’ve been drowning my fears
In too many beers
My Browning is loaded with tears...

Barely a breeze whispering
on this cool September night

Up in the clear dark sky
the moon is shining bright

The stars look small and far away 
they twinkle like diamond dust

Those stars and moon like candlelight
keep shining down on us

A gentle mist is forming 
as it floats along the ground

The insects are all silent
nothing makes a sound....

Priiiiiiick but he might have crunch numbs
wait there is that ing noise that annoys me

That dog that purrs me is eye balling

and prick keep it down
while i chase a king kong sized bone
you may pet me while i sleep
drooo

The stars gathering in the sky
like the bees to a honey
the moon drawing close to the sky
children chanting 
too the happy new tunes
mother getting busy


As the day bets goes bye
we keep counting down
the cloud gathering slowly
snow and dew keep drizzling
as the music gets louder


Step by step 
we get closer
as the year raps up
i have a dream
yet in my mental room....

the two who own my soul 
dances and make bets everywhere

they just throw it hanging 
such bets and dares occupy

all their soul attention time 
those dares and dances enrage

the one that control my conscious
stomp and forges here and there

He only keep it down grounded
too busy watching others mourning

takes every watch fulfillment
this forgery and observance irritate...

Slowly walking down
the never ending tunnel.
A bright light blinds my eyes,
but I hear soft sweet music.
It soothes away the pain.
The light keeps getting brighter
and the music stronger.
But still as sweet as it was.
I keep walking down
the never ending tunnel.
I start to turn.
I can not go on.
Fighting for my breath.
Fighting for my heart to beat.
I'm back home
where I truly belong....
