What you think you see in me
is a reflection in what you see in yourself
therefore a picture in your mind
You are you're worst enemy
I'm NOT your enemy
go fight the man in the mirror
I won't condemn you nor commend you
I shall not cast pearls to swine...
Opinions vary!

I know it takes love and understanding to make a good thing happen and transcend

So forever I will always tell you darling you'll be more to me than just my friend

I get high such a big love high every time I think about this thing

Makes it hard for me to ever slow down when the sun always seems to be rising

Sky's the limit
And I wanted to say nothing can stop us or get in our way

Sky's the limit
And I want you to know, this love will grow oh

There ain't no need to ever be demanding
Mystic love will be right here for you
I can't explain this magic kinda feeling
That always happens when you're in my view
We have our lives and a lifetime to share
Love will take us everywhere
This heavy vibe sure feels light as a feather
Keep reaching for the sky and put our love together

I'm in heaven baby
In seventh heaven...

I grew up as a poor white kid
Soul stations were the best I heard!
I flipped my lid! I was 12 despised high school military nerds!

My friends laughed at my musical taste
Memphis east tupelo James Brown
Even Elvis above the waist?

The Supremes Arthur Connelly Wilson wicked picket made me wanna dance!
Old school radio 1960's still the best.
Back then before civil unrest...

Lets get drug dealers off our backs!
Tina Turner forever...

Tip for new or young writers:
When I was young I inadvertently plagiarized; I didn't know any better.
Therefore, always strive to be original. Remember also, less is more. Keep your thoughts simple. I started writing poems at age 14 at grandma's house my poems were horrible! I wrote on grocery sacks boy she got angry when there was no more grocery list paper left in the house... We didn't have computers or cellphones back then. The paper had chunks of wood stuck in it...
Now that's old...

Hello walls, glad you box me in, always allowing me to be misanthropic where I pretend I'm in the tropics no one can reach me on my imaginary beach

Stranded like a ship wrecked castaway
a thirsty love starved necromancer, trying to find a magic shop

Women are like lengthy sentences always having something loquacious to say followed by a period

I have periods too, in the form of tears of blood

No companion

Most american women have beaten me up!

Child hood friend age five years old
Pecked my teeth to get up and play
Grandma was there to protect us both
Now those years have gone away

No one wants to get old and turn grey
Color our hair but that just looks fake
Vanity unfair we lie to ourselves
All things decay the best asset is good health

I smoke and drink to try and forget
I'm my own worst enemy ashamed of my debt

A self made failure not young anymore
Where is my baby duck maybe he waits in heaven for me?

Trying to find the path back to yesterday the older I get the harder it is to be...
