Premium Member The Fine Art of Keeping Distance
Into the deep- green hearted forest
far removed from man's raucous tangle
the many tacky hues of self-centeredness.
There's only herbivores and carnivores
doing their thing in primal time harmony.
Nesters weave the incoherence together
Miraculously everything is spaced out evenly
I'm given a wide berth and tolerated to a degree. 

Even the gray silence keeps its distance from me....

Let's Talk About Me
i like to tell stories
that bring glory to me
no one i know
is more deservingly 

at this moment you think
i am up on myself
but at this moment 
isn't everyone else

with self centeredness 
being the thought of the day
in the i want it all
and i want it my way

i can honestly say
without skipping a beat
i, me, and mine
are my top favorite three

so listen closely
to the stories i tell
interestingly about me
and nobody else...

THE ROPE

One end anchored in faith, and
the other in the solid rock, Jesus.
 Fibers of love, mercy, hope, peace
strong strands interwoven.

A guide when the storms of
life beat against the soul.
A friend to grasp during the
deep drifts of depression.

It is always there for me,
never moving, never breaking.
I am the one who lets go, from
arrogance and self- centeredness.

Age has strengthened
my grip. I have no desire
to let go.

Premium Member Ring Leader
Personally I don't like the way he gets up 
Every morn sqawking, strutting his stuff around, don't like, yup

Ring leader in the morn with his self-centeredness
His behavior exudes narcism and great abrasivesness

His neck stretched, chest extended, muslces flexed ready
This Rhode Island Red crows from dawn 'til sun up and steady

Premium Member Confound
Fog rushes swirling, a vortex
Damp confusion surrounds
Cool but heavy air adds pressure
Concerns seem to confound

Then the chirps of Whip-Poor-Will
One to my left, then right
Their songs a simple tweet chorus
Morn's symphony delight__

The Dove awakes from night's slumber
Their coos echo through trees
A simple song, few notes' melodies
Sung just for you and me

How can life become so hurried?
So concerned with things?
Did modern materialism
Self-centeredness bring?  ...
