Many poems are spoiled by saying too much. The reader must be allowed to participate, fill in spaces with his or her own feelings, or the experience becomes a lecture...and I have hated those since childhood

Many of my dear friends becoming saints in their old age, which I am trying to avoid best I can.

Love is a splendid thing,
a minefield to cross,
a great heartbreak – I never
stop trying.

"The future imposes itself. Don't lie to yourself by saying you're preparing for it, because in thinking so you might actually be destroying your future beyond repair"
|
Defying heartbreak, the human spirit is dynamic and strong -- and faith, our divine fuel for new forward momentum and recovery.

I'm a very small person in a great big world just trying to make a tiny bit of difference.

Change is hard but staying somewhere you don’t belong will literally destroy you.
|
If you had a happy childhood, you spend the rest of your life trying to get back to it; if you had an unhappy childhood, you spend the rest of your life trying to get out of it
|
Maybe results are not as important as trying...I think, hope, that is the way God looks at us.
|
Yes, it is like that. I always write in bed, lying down, using pencil for ink floods back. Cat is next to me, probably wondering why I bother when we could be out hunting. Little does he know, I am hunting composition. Clawing into paper, till it drips poetry.

Flirting is a cheap currency. Those who don't have character, substance, or real value equivalent to solid gold use flirting as a method to mask their own emptiness in exchange for goods they can get without paying the real price.

“I drink poetry like champagne in Timelessness, purifying me, strengthening me, calming me…” GhairoDanielsQuotes

Poetry is really only saying things with deeper, more aware commitment. Treatment of words in such a way that gives the reader desire and space for personal mental, spiritual interaction. In short, poetry is more thoughtful. To be poetic involves heartfelt communion on a creative level that does not exist even with dear, profound prose. Great prose often exhibit strong poetic language.

Love is like a feeling that stays with you forever, like buying a favorite dress. You always get a good feeling.

How old is the earth? Just take the past 5,000 years, how far technically man has come...follish to think we are the first great (so called civilization) -- when the bible talks of creation, timelines, much is spiritual truth, applying to many generations even civilizations. Yes, man will fall again, and again, and again. Till we get right with God. Not a one of us, has ever left this world for long. We are dead...and death will repeat over and over. Few know it. Part of the problem.

When the end justifying the means means abandoning principle, it means the end is near.

"People won't always like you, people will doubt your music. So, keep playing, and please yourself."
|
You waste all your youth trying to get away from home and spend the rest of your life trying to get back there.

Dying of boredom unchallenged — the single worst kind of death
(Dreamsleep: September, 2025)
|
For me, it is never difficult to have faith...faith is not about surviving in my mind. Not about staying healthy and prospering. Faith is mostly about serving.

And you're back out on the street
And you're trying to remember, oh
How do you start it over?
You don't know if you can............
You never thought you'd be alone
This far down the line-The Eagles (band)

You'll never understand what I am saying, you have to know me to do a proper line to line? No one even tries looking beyond my imagery. Extreme Horror is a dying art form, I write a new form of splatterpunk anyways. Evolution may revive the corpse.

As we walk by we witness changing colours, fraying masks........... Yet, passing by we wear a hearty smile...... Just when we don't stand amongst them.
We never witnessed Lord Krishna thru the war but they his values, uprightness n strategies we can see him smile.
Meaning thereby, may how much it pains.... Just be the one!!!!

Bigotry is a very sophisticated form of lying.
