Mother's Almanac

Spring births abundance
Summer gives pleasant pause
Seasons set in stone
Fall gives beautiful closure
Winter's perfect storms

Pizza For the Mob

Well done pizza is what the mob counts on
The lightest always set before each con
Don't die alone
It's set in stone
It's always the darkest before the don!

My First Priority Is Me

If theres one thing i know 
That's set in stone
Is that you can't be
Everything
To everyone you know
So just be you
If their expectin more
It's time to let them go

Stubborness

Stubborn, never giving in frivolous ways,
remaining an example of manliness...
quickly fading in modern times. 
My image proudly set in stone,
a face battered by the fierce wind.

Medusa

And so I turned away from the world 

I faced myself 

My shadows writhing set in stone 

I saw myself alone 

I stared myself unknown 

In silence to insane 

I retired in self blame

Street Lines

Cross over the boundaries.
They are not set in stone.
They are just yellow lines offering some guidance.
Ride on across and break the norm.
For in your mind you have.
Now you just need to get in your car and drive over.

Set In Stone

Change what you did,
and I’ll change how I feel
You can’t change forever
denying what’s real
The fly’s in the ointment,
the die has been cast
This moment endemic
—predestined to last

Atlas

Nothing is set in stone
Feel the weight of the world
Pressed against your aching bones
Time is timeless
Life is priceless
Why bless the stress
Let it go
Bliss is simple
Just take the weight
Off those massive shoulders.

Taking the Far Way

I'll take the far way
I won't cut corners
Or take shortcuts
The flesh moves on it's own
The mind understanding stillness
All the past remains set in stone
Thoughts of the future left unknown
Only in the now do I find my home

Of Stones

My soul's made of stone 
Through triumph to tragedy 
My granite's strengths shown 
The angels have flown 
Wherever, I never  doubt 
Mountains stand alone 
No chance can be blown 
My duties are set in stone 
I'll reap what i've sown

This Was His Name

"Pass the salt!"
Over and over again
in Arabic
Like my father's final dream
Of a young, perfect Abraham
Set in stone stars
Falling into the world with vigor

Slowly,
Slowly now, children...

We are going back to the other side.

Petitions

Petitions:  

I see no point in petitions, 
no not one, nope none.

No steps stop intentions set in stone.

So stop it. 

It's petti.

No Point in petitions nope not one.

Foul Line

many a time 
within this 
relationship game 
the emotional foul line
was crossed 
many an instance 
of stepping  
outside the 
accepted boundary 
of what is expected 
breaking the unspoken 
rules that had been set in stone
long ago

Pursue Me

Perhaps I was born to pursue
Always a seeker - a finder
Because I am not - And I will not
I am a seeker
Although not a contest - victorious
A forever state of mind

Perhaps It is my fate
Looking to crystal
Destiny set in stone
 - forever alone

A Good Marriage

Always look into each others eyes
as if you just met
Always fall in love again
as if tomorrow may never come
Always thank God for 
letting you meet
even if it was in a barn
for a halloween party
Always laugh and 
yes your marriage is set in stone
Never cheat
always be true

Flies

Dreams of Death, with Fractured Eyes. Half our dead, Our half alive. Set in stone, Your tomb awaits. One must atone, Hungry with hate. A fire burns, deep in my chest. Burning urns, With burning breath. Death is near, Every day. Do not fear, just fly away.

Down and Out

When I feel down and out
It makes me want to shout
No one wants to hear it
So it makes me feel arrogant
My heart is good
But to many get misunderstood
I'm on my own
And nothing is set in stone
I'm there for friends 
But mine don't want to bend
Nothing much I can do
But keep going like I do

Human Nature

Your mindset
Unwavering
Stoney
Confident self
Believing parents
Even worse
Living
Incomplete
Dreary
Set in stone
Unlived life
Expecting a change
Without doing your part
Crazed
Distorted thinking

Human Strugle

Each day remains, 
the last is gratefully gone,
the next holds mystery, 
what will  be will be,
whats next for me?
Can I rewrite my destiny?
Like a line in a poem?
Can I recreate home?
Everything seems set in stone,
Like the carvings on a stone.
Finality and reality,
being born human is a strugle.

Gone!

Gone away
never coming back

Lost forever
won't be anymore

Holding on
just let go

Stay here
never letting go

What happened
Lost in the wind

Going away
done and over

Happy times
set in stone- not so much

Faith, love, and dreams are gone away no use in holding on to what is already lost!

Your Lover

Bitter Heart-breaker
You're set in your ways
You want me to believe love is ALL you portray
Your evilness chills me to the bone
Your heart seems to be set in stone
How many girls have you left all alone
Wishing they could win back their souls
I laugh at your foolishness
For you to even conceive
I would ever be
Your Lover!

Setting the Mind Free

Our minds aren't  set in stone . Our minds aren't  confine to the past , nor limited to our limitations . If we can have faith , dream , pursue .... through pain , hardship , suffering wisdom is gained . Education illuminates , conforms . Through all of this true change comes . Our minds are reborn like the Phenix  rising from the ashes .

You'Ll Belong

Stick around
Long enough
And you’ll belong
No song though
No set in stone
Alone so

You’ll find it here
No near death
Breath is all
Along you go
No show up yet
No neat next now
But how
You’ll belong
And long after
You can leave


Believe it or not
You’ll long for it
No fit no neat
Near nor
Just “or”
“You'll belong!”

Black Shadows

i sit by myself, in these black shadows, i see a flash in my mind, of me hanging from the gallows. im by myself, all alone in the dark, my mind is a sea, with an all black shark. im in the dark, all alone, im on a field, but im not in the zone, my life was carved with a knife, and set in stone, and now there's nothing left, but broken bone.
