Premium MemberBe Straight With Me

I can handle the truth if you give me a chance
Your trying to control the situation in advance
You're telling me everything but what I want to hear 
Being honest is one way you show you're sincere
Don't beat around the bush and be straight forward
I know seeing my reaction can be quite awkward
Knowing how you really

Premium MemberMixed Drink Sets Raccoon Straight

Hawaii is the place, raccoon decided, loving the idea of course
He sold his farm, plow, tractor, combine, goats, pigs and horse
Ran to Hawaii to sit on a pink beach and enjoy the sand
He said to his mixed drink, I have found the promised land!

The mixed drink began laughing and could not stop.
You have not seen

Premium MemberThe Chaos In My Heart

What if you are an emerald empath
With the ability to feel cries or laughs
That are like energy with a spiritual path
That give insight unique to mental maths 

You may be of one fuchsia faith or maybe not
But the soul is being bathed by another heart
A two spirited person not evil nor innocent 
Feelings like a

No matter how much you may ever lead yourself astray.
I will always be right beside you, leading you back to the way.
No matter how you curve throughout life, know I am the way.

Premium MemberWords Straight up

I want conversations 
with writers and poets
The wise the wacky 
the dark and the stoic 
I need to drink your words
I fear my disease is chronic 
The name of my affliction
I think it’s wordaholic

Writers and poets
Dig down to the deep
Some are more honest
Others have secrets to keep
Some can herd cats
or people like sheep
If you tell

     Ogden Nash penned these two lines

From the ravine to a straight road

Ravine: Oh road , you're on the straight and narrow 
             Your path is so very shallow
And the beings that pass by oh so mellow
Everyone's a jolly good fellow

Road: Dear ravine with your twists murky and deep
      The

Premium MemberBent is Strong, Straight is Weak

In nature, being adroit and straight is rare,
It's curves and bends that fill the air.
See rivers that twist,
Trees bent to resist,
For strength lies in being bent, not straight.

    Every single Arab death in Gaza

    Aided and abetted by Iran

Premium MemberI'm Just a Straight Man

My words written, by others, not truly understood
But if you had ever lived my life then surely would

Imagination put aside I didn’t imagine all the pain
On a better day all the happiness I’ve ever gained

Witnessed the changes for better, or for the worse
There’re so many things out there I would reverse

Growing up cursed myself as

Writing Straight with Crooked Lines

Would that my poet's heart could fly,
but an artist's anchor is his eye.
I still see the magic in mere flesh,
so a humble fate is mine...

Your form shall be revered, my dear;
I pray you never need to fear,
the passions flowing deep within me
as we struggle down the line...

From fruits of base attraction,
sweetest sensual transaction-
God may grant
