If You Give a Bum a Dime

Once upon a time

I gave a bum a dime

Dropped it in his tin can

I should have ran

He grinned a grin

Filled with sin

Weapon after weapon

He ran me through

First blunt

Then sharp

Left me in the alley to die

Death - What a single dime can buy

A Tale of Fish and Duck

there once was a duck
who had no luck
her parents cruelly named her chuck
she liked to play in the muck
unfortunately the poor thing was hit by a truck

there once was a fish
he lived in a dish
his parents cruelly named him trish
he liked to splash and splish
his death was not his owners wish

the two unfortunate beings met in the sky
and of this tale i do not lie
at first they were quite shy
til trish said, oh my!
you know chuck, we did both die

today they had a baby
it is said that maybe
they will choose to name her ramie
but if you ask me
she's the ugliest baby you ever will see

Teddy Bear Eyes

Watched her grow, watched her go

From crawling to walking

From child to woman

I was her friend

From beginning to end

Ashes to ashes

Dust to dust

And yet I remain

From mother to daughter

From father to son

Pass and pass

Love that will forever last

The more I see and hear

I fill with love and pride

For the family keeping me on this ride

They are mine

And I am theirs

Always there

Never will betray

Best friends are always found

In Teddy Bears

Kony 2012 Please Read and Share

It only takes a moment
One second of your time
To make a change
The invisible children are starting to be heard
With your help they can be saved
Just take a moment to listen
Joseph Kony is a villain 
A terrible, terrible man
Take a second to find out why
He kidnaps children
Right from their homes
Puts them into his armies
But thats not all
He forces them to kill
Sometimes forces them to kill
Their own parents
He has no cause, no worldly plan
Just wants to grow his power
And he MUST be stopped!
If enough citizen support is gathered
We can make a difference
We can assist in his arrest
All it takes is a second
Look up the Invisible Children Inc.
Look up Joseph Kony
Look up information and join us
As we fight for these children
Who alone may not be heard
And as we fight for the capture and arrest
Of Joseph Kony
....................................................Joseph Kony 2012   We WILL make a difference!

Insanity

Within me a beast is caged

Bars that bind, weakened as I aged

Flash of the eyes

IT is on the rise

IT wants to lead 

Wants to feed

Stretching out at last

Better run fast

Finally free

Ready for ITS spree

Overpowered and now I'm the one 

Thats bound

In ITS raw fury I drowned

Nothing left to hold IT back

From a bloody snack

I am gone

A whisper in the night

IT is all that remains

Claws, hate, and fangs

The Elements

One day Water said to Earth
“I ruled long before your birth,
I was here first, I hold the key,
Bow down to my seniority”
Earth replied to water with a laugh
“I paved my own path!
You may have been here first, it’s true,
But in the end my might bested you.”
The oceans swelled and roared
And the skies, they violently poured
As Water threatened to once again drown
So then Air jumped in with a frown
“Must you two always bicker?
This fuss will cause Fire to stir,
We all know what a bother he will be,
So please agree to disagree, peacefully!”
But the intervention came much too late
As Fire awoke with a blazing shake
“Who was here first, that’s no victory,
Not when there is a force as great as me!”
Fire began to swell with pride
Until Water doused him in her tide
Earth laughed with a great big rumble 
Filling Water with rocky crumble
Water replied with a great big wave
Leaving Earth’s garden naught but a grave
“My flowers! You have drown them all!
With that Earth shook down a great waterfall.
Water cried out, for she was undeniably vain
Without it she felt quite plain
Fire, still upset over the blow to his pride
Joined up and took Earth’s side
The three began to unleash their wrath 
Destroying much in their explosive path
Until Air decided that she had had enough
And she blew with one mighty puff
To pieces the Earth fell with a bash
And Water flew back with a crash
Fire shrunk into a tiny light
And Air took advantage from the break in the fight
“Why must you always try to be superior?
When we got along, things were merrier.
We work so much better 
When we work together!
Earth, you and Water pave the way
So the creatures of the world can live every day!
And Fire, you are needed just as much
Life would perish without your warm touch.”
Water ran smooth, feeling foolish
Such destruction was never her wish
Earth grew still similarly,
“I am so sorry,” said he.
Even Fire seemed to feel some shame
As he all but extinguished his flame
The elements worked together once more
Another quarrel added to the stories of lore

A Tale of Fire and Ice

I scream and yell
A harsh front
To hide the hell
Icy shards
Protect my heart
Only his fire
Could rip apart
But now the flames
Have faded away
Barricade my heart
Once more
Icy shield never again
Will open it's door
He burned out 
His fiery blaze
Never again
Will the flames raise

The Aneurism

Foreign creature in my head
Won’t leave until I am dead
Tangled deep within
Creating a chaotic din
Blasting color, sparking pain
Melting away my brain
Alien emotions pouring out
Angry words grow roots and sprout
This person is not me
This person making them flee
Leaving me alone with my impending doom
Over my head the knowledge looms
Soon to burst…but when?
And the fear strikes yet again
How could you pass this on to me, why?
Mother, because of you I am going to die

Mess

My stomach churns - so sick of crying
Eyes wide with fear - at a loss
So many mistakes - now you're dying
So sorry - wish I could be the one you need

Devil's Lullaby

Under the covers, I can hear you cry

You’re singing the devil's lullaby

Reach out to grasp the darkness

Try to lift you out of this mess

Grasp the darkness, nothing more

This is becoming a chore

Haunting me day and night

Filling me with fright

Couldn’t save the one that meant the most

Now he’s naught but a ghost
