i don't know what to
do anymore, i'm drowning,
i'm so very sad.
It is a simple question, do you believe a wife should obey her husband?
Sorry if you answered yes, you see this is America, we are all equal and it is illegal to oppress another human being.
Don't bring that **** around here, some of us are socially evolved.

Seriously, We have young girls we're trying to teach independence to here, that's who we should be as humans.
Failure is rooted
Deep inside of me
It may be the
Definition of humanality
The more I try
The more imperfect I become
Burning out the pride
Inside of me
Is a task in which
I strive to succeed
At times I find it
Very over powering within me
I fail because pride over rides
When I succeed
I have, at last, reached
The understanding
This is why The Lord
Sent to us, His Son
My mind has been opened to
His graciousness, love, and guidance
His will drives me
To overcome
never ending human battle we must not succumb
......And she wrote in a frenzy
Breathless and thirsty.
Words to feed her mind
Stories to feed her soul.
And she kept writing, incessantly,
As if it was akin to breathing.......

staring into each others eyes
neither of us knowing
whats next;
what lies.

I inch closer
smiling seductively
with a look of coy;
I have always admired
a good old boy

"Don’t be shy with me,
There is simply
no need.
Like you I have hurts.
Like you I bleed."
Don't breathe long and slow-
don't be carried downstream by the current
of the universe-
Fight!
Thrash and writhe and wriggle with all your might.
And of zen, well...

**** zen!
We are alive that we can go against
that mighty current-
for a while.
Don't waste your time in stillness!
Don't accept!
Be loud and fast, and fly in your own direction.

There will be time to be still,
there will be time to accept,
there will be time to dissolve into homogeneity,
more than enough time.

Don't squander the opportunity
to fight,
to resist,

to live.
I don't know how to tell you,
I don't want to disappoint you
I'm depressed Mom
I wish I could say it to your face
Instead of writing it down
I want to be able to tell you
Because
I'm sick of these voices
Inside of my head
Telling me how fat I look
Or how I'm annoying everyone I talk too
But I try to be happy for you
I smile but do you look me in the eyes?
Can't you tell that there's a war going on in my mind?
I know you see my scars
But you don't say anything
why?
I'm slowly killing myself
And I try showing you signs
So when I'm gone
Don't hate me because I didn't tell you
I just loved you too much
To say it out loud
I wish I could tell my mom that I've been contemplating taking my life for 3 years
C
is confused, so a little complex
I mean, one moment it’s top of the range
glowing
in the hierarchy of vitamins
but next it’s a little abashed and low
in a student’s report card –
you know, C is not as good as an A
And so can you blame C for its mood swings?
Its agony continues:
one instant C is Calm, in another it’s a Curse


And you know it also feels a little wanting
a little under-stretched, not fulfilled
like not being able to complete
all the stretching exercises
its fitness trainer metes out
“O, if only I could be a little more yogic,”
C intones
“I’d be as composed as an O” -
but O no, that’s not to be

And don’t you start
on the indignant possibilities
of the letter C, for C has always aspired
you see
to be genteel, cultured and debonair
and curls with disgust if the uncouth
should use the letter  
to refer to any body parts,
be it that of male or of female
So, dear mortals, C should be left in celestial spheres

And so, in conclusion,
one Commandment I give unto you:
*Never drag C to ****** shallows
Do you C?
