Premium Member perk of being retired

I used to have a medical co-pay when I had a job
sometimes it was thirty-five dollars, other times it was seventy
Now I have a Medicare card and supplemental insurance
Guess what?
My MasterCard can sleep
there is no co-pay
no money from me required at all
really?
Wow!
Good enough
a perk of being retired

Tempestuous Self-Esteem

Expectations brings
about self deprecations,
sometimes I wonder if 
the thoughts running 
through my head are 
my own or somebody 
else’s?

The world lives
in constant turmoil,
waves crashing,
tides swerving in
and out from open-
ended beaches,
abysmal delays of
the lighthouse directory,
guided by supplemental 
shocks of lightening
rays trajectory.

I stand firmly in front
of the baseless sandcastle,
a fragile foundation of
past voices from lurking
shadows who slowly 
poisoned its interior,

lack of motivation,
wandering in between 
spaces incoherently,
my mind in anxiety help-
lessly what I could
not understand,
the words stare back
at me in silence gradually 
suppressing the last 
bit of life found closing
in underneath,

time holds on as
it falls into deep
sleep.


You Can'T Pale Me With Blue

Within a twinkling of an eye
You grew so tall and high
The little foxes in my vine
Growing with malign to break my spine

My mistakes might have given you my life
Cos I love my wife
And my children too
You can't pale me with blue

As long as my family remains ocean blue
My courage will surely accrue
To think you can break my spine
And limit my confine

I shan't cease to strife
Cos you can't have my life
You little foxes in my vine
Growing fat to malign

Within a twinkling of an eye
You grew so tall and high
Like trees enhanced by supplemental water
You grew branches like innocent and fragrant killer

Oh! Poor boy that struggles with debt
You will soon have them offset

Alphabet Games

Albatross flying through the sky without wings
Brainless minds can't think of such things
Creating a barrier around the walls of rings
Developing a fever, luckily no one ever sings
Evolution was created for the non believing kings
Forgetting the forgotten forget-me-nots while forgetting
Greedy slander speaking of things
High above the prestige of mindless earnings
Innovated by the "sky is the limit" ratings, but
John Glenn walked on the moon while standing
Killer whales suffering for their killings
Lions really the reigning kings?
Monsters think that their absence brings
Nonsensical political surprisings
Outdated data was just sadly rising
Perplexed knowledge is just surprising
Quivering for the facts just reprising
Realizing that everything you saw was just blinding
Sentimental feeling is a supplemental fling
Thinking that you're just rising
Under the current of the abyss are things
Ventured out under starless skies that bring
Wonder in all of the things that become one significant thing
Xylophones playing with unwinding
Yellow dandelions blooming under blinding
Zero dandelions now walking around Earth unwinding

                                          Destruction and how it's meant

                                          The Government...
                                                The Supplement...

                                                Everyone's a liability

                                          I see visions of scenic hypocrisy
                                          Lies upon lies that ferment

                                          The Government...
                                                The Supplement...

                                                 It is all probability

                                                And then we all fall down...

The Footprints of Love

When we go out we have a table set for two, 
Baby girl just me and you.
I feel you by me at my side,
But yet inside my heart is where you really abide.

I do believe that their is love that we share,
I just want to be the one who will always be there. 
I will give you what you want, and when you need it 
Because our love is supplemental and I am willing to feed it.

If I tell you I love you and mean it from the bottom of my heart,
Don’t pretend to love me with a love that can easily depart.
Our hearts are beaten up, tattered and frail,
If only we could fix them and be put on the right trail,
Than someday we could be together with a love that would never fail.

One day it will hurt when we won’t even be able to say hi,
And it will hurt worse when we both have to say good bye.
That day seems to becoming fast,
And maybe then our hearts will be settled at last.
