Built by a mushroom finger hut ghost
Deep in the blue forest, only seen by a few
She only shows herself when she thinks you are true

Mueller Report was said to be comprehensive;
Answer questions of those who are inquisitive;
Way to lean,
In each scene;
Certain selective things that could be sensitive.

Listen to poem:
getting
more and more
protective
particular 
and selective
with my time

truth is
i refuse
to have others decide
how to squander 
what I have left

life is too short
to waste

Premium Member Selective Memory

If I could remember
Half of what I've forgot
That sure would be something 
I have forgot a lot

The older that I get
The better my life seemed
I can't tell the difference 
From real and what I've dreamed

Selective and Corrective Lenses

Selective and Corrective Lenses

Always for eyes are corrective lenses
So after knocked out, return to senses;
Are weird ways of looking at things
May sound horrible when someone sings;
What happens when your brain condenses?

Premium Member We Are Not the Doer

The verve to serve those we opine deserve, surely compassion selective though touch of love is effective healing those who before us appear but perhaps we should consider that identity is not the doer we are but God’s channel who He does empanel

Fate Is a Winnower

Human fate is a winnower
so selective and decisive it is
she places a few on hill tops
others she shows the valleys
the spent forces she gives plots
lazy lots she forces into gutters
as the vibrant becomes seeds
but the winnower in its work
knows all are useful offspring

Premium Member Zealot

Zany zealot
Fervently on fire
Enthusiastically single-minded
Fanatical and furiously frenzied
He tries to convert everyone he meets
He cannot get a job, has had twelve interviews
We cannot help him, he is a selective listener
If it does not fit with his schemata, he does not hear it

Premium Member Mask To Mask

mask to mask
hidden from view
our deepest thoughts
personal feelings

mask to mask
we interact
longing to be seen
fearing to be found

mask to mask
we are hiding
we are selective
we are insecure

mask to mask
our actions
our values
our destiny

The Truth Behind Hate

If Love is blind,
Hate is deaf.
Unable to hear optimism and open minds.
A barrier between reality and distortion.
Truth and Humbleness blocked by the brick wall of stupidity,
A world full of envy and strife,
Selective hearing,
Picking and pruning through the good,
Just to find the bad,
Pain = Hate.

Premium Member Blindness

How does blindness come to be selected
As if the choice was a benefit

How does blindness become selective
As if we know what's best for us... or anyone

How can the knowing become unknown
As if creation is ours alone

How can the unknown become acceptable to the blind
When blindness was the choice
