True Story
Walking in the front door with my sisters in tow, the phone on the sideboard in the dining room started ringing incessantly. Upon answering the phone, a very determent voice accosted my ear with, ‘You are the lucky winner in our draw to receive a Life Coat makeover for your house—‘

The True Story of Little Pop
It was on one early summer morn
that the voice of a watchful Mama Corn
told a frightful story, meant to warn
her son, Pop, just recently born.
"Pop", it said, her darling boy to save,
"Once, in a cornfield, I too would wave.
In the sun and breeze, I was brave,
but you must listen up and behave.
You're

The Addiction Nobody Sees- Part 02
Don’t talk to me about self-control
If you’ve never cried in your bed
After trying to quit for the 50th time.
Don’t tell me “it’s just a phase”
If you’ve never looked at yourself in the mirror
And hated what you became.
And don’t you dare say, “Everybody watches ****.”
Because that’s the problem.
This generation is overdosing on pleasure
And starving for purpose.
Sex

Take A Walk In My Shoes
So you want to hear my story
To tell you where I came from
But can you handle it
Will you really listen to me
Or will you just continue to judge me
Instead of asking me where I am headed
Will you believe me when I tell you my story is true
What I was I am no longer
Or will you

A Mighty force
God’s Wrath
Devastation

Kansas Highway
A Greyhound Bus
Destination bound
Kansas City schedule
A Tornado ratio
A bus rising lift

Ruined My Life
Writing effortlessly and I faint
first thought was dreamscape
I can recall every single detail
To the T.
Twelve fenestra foggy glass,
a paining of a woman, Egyptian,
classy loft style apartment,
with a fountain in the center,
tree growing up and through the ceiling,
at its base a pool for a fountain raining above,
this is the only light source,

Fairy Tale Shakespearian Romance
My true love story
Almost seems like
A fairy tale romance.
Romeo and Julian almost.

From different worlds
And find themselves.

Of “Mid-summer night dreams”

Dramas, poems, and stories.
And classic romcoms.
Including Sleepless in Seattle
And Bollywood and K dramas..
But in my story
I dreamt of meeting
And marrying my dream lady
Traveled to Korea
Where
