Each of us a Rough -- needing only the bench of experience combined with Faith. Faith is the cutting before polishing, every gemologist will tell you. No matter the training and precautions, each jewel starts as a gamble. Polishing can be the fun part, the realization of one's own inherent preciousness and beauty.

When I start to write, I try to make of myself a blank slate...left with just the impulse that got me there, at the lone scrimmage. I sit quietly...waiting.... Until an interesting thought or phrase, can be even one word eagerly presenting itself. Then I begin the poem, letting the impulse lead beyond. To me, poetry, along with everything else a writer uses for definition and motivation, above all else is viewed as sacred -- alive and independent literary expression in a manic, schizoid way:)

Money seems so important but there are infinite ways to earn it..... Respect and fame bejewel only those who work hard with sincerity, those who are good learners.

No team performs perfectly, as all are prone to mistakes, yet the better ones tend to minimize the errors; through training, repetition, and chemistry, all leading to fewer headaches.

|
If what is seen or heard is untrue ... then just how does a mistaken reality become what is listened to and only viewed?

|
All delusions are paid with tears and regrets, and even with bitterness never experienced, the ones who are realistic enough to avoid them, and concentrate on solutions, have fewer headaches to worry about.

A rhinestone skein, a jeweled brocade of light—
the city is a garment stretched so thin
her neon colors bleed into the night
and everywhere bright seams, unraveling, ...

Confronted by the awesome thought of death,
to never suffer, and be free of grief,
we wonder: What’s the use of drawing breath?
Why seek relief
from the bible’s Thief,
who ripped off Eve then offered her a leaf?
('Farewell to Faith II' by Michael R. Burch)

Farewell to Faith I
by Michael R. Burch
What we want is relief
from life’s grief and despair:
what we want’s not “belief”
but just not to be there.

Down Below are 6 word Memoirs:
A pencil and paper is all
Your the rose I'm the thorns
Life is short so live it
Cry out thats what its about
Laugh, Love, Live that's it
No matter what there is hope
Life is like a precious jewel
(don't break it)
Maybe , No means Next Opportunity... Maybe?
Keep Your distance People are insane
