A river boat runs into a bar                                                                                            and says give me a mark twain...

clouds as fluffy as the whistling bliss
encircling in the sky, eyes fonder and kiss

abaft the hidden pillows of lace
brightness over hays above Thy grace...

father father 
hold me up high 
over your head
farther and father 
and spin me 
around and around
until 
I become you 
and you become you
in my fond memories...

Never test the water with BOTH feet
To feel the temperature or if it's too deep
One foot at a time
For testing the brine
If it's over your head, bad words you'll bleep...

Lift a ten pound bag of potatoes over your head
Next lift a twenty pound bag over your head instead
Finally a fifty pound bag
You performed like a stag
Finally put one potato in each bag you'll probably dread...

Angels angels all around
Keeping my friends safe and sound
Full of love grace care and hope
Sending faith to help you cope
So each day gets a lot better
And all of the stormy weather
Never keeps any dark clouds
Over your head--A lighted shroud
Will protect you from the rain
Pushing away all hurt and pain...

The warm winds blowing 
softly…

The great Indian spirit in the
 sky blessing you…

May you always have rainbows
 in your life…

May you always have clothes
 upon your back, shoes upon 
your feet and a roof over your head…

And always have your Indian Spirit 
Angel on your shoulder…

Why do thing behind my back?
Then play like it’s all an act.
Spending money like it’s free.
Taking out loans you don’t need.
Over your head can’t you see.
Stop and look before you leap.
Manage your money wisely.


Just trying on some new styles as taught by spencerj. Also venting a little bit-have 
to keep it real..lol...

I am your dad,
Hold my finger,
And learn to walk;
First few steps are arduous,
Hold my finger tight;
Life ahead is tough,
May have thorns, 
May have bumpy terrain,
Be wakeful on each step you move;
Dad's hands always over your head,
As a brolly for shade;
In bad and tough times,
Follow you as shadow,
to keep you move;

Hey! step back
Hey! step closer
let me, take a breath 

your, messing up my heart 
your, messing up my first-steps 

and my head can't
tell the rest of me 

STOP! wait, your over your head 
and this is just a kissing game 
and this isn't for keeps 

he just wants
to take you goodies

so, keep his hands above 
and off the Wees  (knees...)...

Your hand is lying over the table.
An aura of innocence over your head
sparkling like a blooming sunflower.
You haven’t slept for million years.
All the hot blooded complainers and
Cruel smiles are hovering in the air. 
Calm like a tomb you are smiling and
dreaming about an unreal dream of love.
Don’t open your eyes before you travel
back and discover the weeping meadow....

MISOGYNY 

HE SAID

I AM YOUR BOSS, YOU FOLLOW ME.

little me said, I thought GOD was the boss.

HE SAID I WILL HIT YOU WHEN I THINK YOU DESERVE IT, EVEN IN FRONT OF YOUR CHILDREN! I AM THE ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD!!

little me knew that if we said “no,” HE had the capability of crushing them all, like Esther.

so, then, the skinny white girl
with nowhere else to go
said
okay...

In the doorway, you stand deliciously; 
I draw you over to the bed.
And kiss your mouth as I pull your dress,
Slowly over your head.

I nip your neck and eye you coyly;
You sink into my kiss.
And as we touch, I see you buckle,
Into a sharp, awaited bliss.

Sweet lover, with skin as pure as pearls,
Like a coin that’s clean and new.
I open up my mouth to speak,
And all I say: “I do.”...

He claimed I was a young rambuncious lad, very sharp:
He knows how to solve a Rubik's Cube and play the harp!
But did Mr. Thornton know
that I used to be a simple so 'n' so?
Family and friends once said,
"That piano is just way over your head!"
Being the dreamer I took it metaphorically
not realizing they were concerned for my safety.
And just as quick as one would drop a hat,
under half a ton of wood, I became all too flat....

Comparing Clarity with Disparity and Gravity

With some things we must compare clarity,
As it always does and determine disparity;;
Similarity lacking;
Could be cracking,
Assimilated with variable that is gravity.

Parity has to do with a woman's neonatal
condition and the ability of a variable to
agree with others and be correlated.

Jim Horn


This has a high probability that it has
been completely over your head....

Pressure from the job and roof over your head 
Pressure from the kids cause they won’t go to bed 
Pressure in traffic on your way to work
Wreck up ahead hope no one is hurt
Pressure from the dentist drilling your tooth
That hit a nerve back to my roots  
Pressure from the tears there in your eyes 
Oh… it’s a wonder…. but you did survive 
All the pressure 
All the strife 
That lump coal ……….
               Has a polished life...

When you feel that bitter
 Cold air in a winter breeze

 Turning a clock back
 Dark mornings early nights
 Tucked up warm inside,
 Have you ever wondered
 With heat a home 
a roof over your head
 All the street people
 Newspaper for a bed
 Some more lucky
 A cardboard shed
 Just for a minute
 Give it a thought
 Their is always one person
 Worse off than you
 So think yourself lucky
 Like the one
 With a cardboard shed.

A home is a place where you feel warm and contralbe.  This house is your home to keep
you safe from all the climates outside. A home can be 4 walls, or a home can be just small
shack as long you got a roof over your head you have a home. My home is full of laughter
and sometimes tears, but most of the time there is a lot of love.  You can always have a
lot of love in your home, when you know it’s going to be there ever time you come home....

the parking lot of a CVS
two minutes from your house
the backseat of a four door sedan

your sister starts to shake against the door
heaving, sniffling sobs
her breath fogs against the glass
exhale exhale exhale

we should go home he says eventually
the girls are upset
you have never seen him cry before

in bed you pull the sheet over your head
and smear tears across the backs of your hands

the phone screen is too bright
2-5 years the internet says
there is no cure...
