IF I WAS SHAKESPEARE
preservationman Oct 2023
What would be said?
Closer than
Seems far
Complexity cut out
Love can inspire
Romance can act as an angry thorn
Never easy
Theory within
Understanding on doubt
Endless fog running through the mind
Finding one’s way through direction
Endless decisions, but are they right?
Dreams and thoughts
The pain of hate
Wounds of the heart
Tormented from the past
Fire surrenders to my soul
But I don’t burn
Hot with no cold solution
Stuck on assumptions of conclusions
Somewhere inspiration has found me
I live and conquered
I stand and confident
A flame is my guiding light
I shine
Insight
My life will ever be bright
I sleep
Good Night

GHOST STEIN
preservationman Oct 2023
Main floor to attic
Chanting heard
A reason to panic
It wasn’t any blowing wind
All through the house
A family wasn’t alone, and it was more than a living mouse
A spirit returned in ghost form who lived prior in the house
Enters through hallways, doors, walls and roofs
A ghost that is foul proof
A sudden family actually saw
It was Benjamin Stein himself in the spirit
He was murdered in the house many years ago
It was a fortune that Mr. Stein had
He didn’t will it to his Wife, and he was killed just like that
The mystery to it, no one suspected his wife and she roams free
Mr. Stein holding so much hate and wants to haunt
So much unrest with no confess
Unforgiven
Ghostly ways
Eerie voice
Shaking of heavy chains
Cracks upon cracks throughout the house structure
Tormenting
From Eternity
Determined chant
“Get Out”
Frightful
Wonder far yonder
Family asked Mr. Stein, why have you returned?
Haunt anyone who chooses to live in this house
Suddenly an ***** played with a ring of a bell
It was midnight precise
Mr. Stein gave this only advice, “Move Out”
This could be your end
The ghostly Stein then laughs and disappears
Thriller in fears
You have been warned

PRESIDENT’S OVERDRIVE
preservationman Oct 2023
Mr. President
The weight of Atlas
USA burdens
Pass or Fail approaches
Decisions sometimes with a defense
Time facing reality
Conflict overseas
Signs of war
World Leaders want to be czar
The test of the President’s mind
Bluff detail
We the People at times had enough
Oval Office Pressure
It doesn’t always get lessor
No sleep
The President being the USA upkeep
Here often on America’s soil
The President stands alone
Media makes it full blown
The President has the left and right senate
They discuss the President’s agenda at hand
Everything becomes at stake
The President doesn’t always have a good day
Things don’t always go the President’s way
A quote from former President Abraham Lincoln, “With the Lord’s help I shall not fail”
Words of encouragement
Unbreakable
Unstoppable
Determined
Visionary
Attrib­utes
The White House rise
Standing for principle
Honest and true
A nation watches and observes
Next chapter
What will it be?

HIGHWAY CORNER

Routes
The thought of Route 66
Endless road
Travel into tomorrow’s threshold
Navigation map
Distances in miles
Embracing in the scenery while
Music to pass the time
R&B, Country and Motown
Journey rhythm back
Once in a while rest stop
Perhaps falling rain falling on car top
Highway to highway
Hitchhikers thumping going my way
There’s always a beware
Signs of caution
Be alert
Don’t drink and drive
Arrive alive
Freedom to explore
Observe
A new day sunrise
It’s a reason to rise
Feel energized
A need to travel
Relaxation
Good bye perplex
Just rest
Let the vacation effect kick in
Enjoyment can now begin
The highway is everyone’s friend
From the beginning to the end

How can I pay you?
You always come through
When struggles arise
Overcoming surprise

GENIE COMPACITY

One wish into several wishes
Many and not just 3
Always continuous

It was an ancient lamp you put aside
Watch your wish and see it reside
Rub the lamp
Watch as your wish comes to life
Some wishes might be extreme
Beyond the subconscious and sublime
A Genie always knows
Distance is never far
Up close and personal is reality
From human to animal
From a nobody to celebrity
From weak to strong
These are just possibility wishes
Name your wish
Let your magic carpet be your limousine
What could be so keen
Genie got you master
Make a wish

THE SAND’S SUN BEAT
preservationman Sep 2023
I walk the desert alone
High dense sun
I am the only among
Struggling, but determined
Maneuvering is a hard able
Scrawling on the desert sand
A rush of a desert wind storm
Blowing and swirling
Thirst rushes to my mind
My eyes visualize an oasis
But no quench only imagery found
Sweat pours over my body like a running fountain
Birds circle overhead waiting until I die to feed on my flesh and bones
Drastically trying to survive, but darkness is slowly closing in
Hours seem like days
My moments full of haze
Tears don’t even come down
I don’t know where I will find myself
Man to Sun, let my soul ever be humble, and solitude prevail
I can make it no more
Within the sand I soar.

WRITER TRUE
preservationman Sep 2023
Sometimes in one’s life they often wonder why do they write?
The words guide one in what to say
The thought it should go this way
This is a mission every day
Writing comes from the heart with a need
That’s the proceed
What do people see?
Is writing from thoughts yesterday and it became tomorrow sought?
Some people won’t be honest in being false, and not tell the truth
Years have moved on since my youth
Wisdom is living proof
It goes beyond words
Mounts to the bull’s eye of understanding
Comes down to experience and knowledge gained
One can always say, but can one believe?
Full of questions
The real questions and answers come from within
Abilities and assurance
Confident at will
Writer true with no false details
No worry of Fail
Momentum of one’s trail
Writer spoken words
Write up
Keep up
Just don’t get fed up
Tomorrow’s sunrise
Sunshine bright
There will be cloudy days
That too shall fade away
Writing is whenever and forever
The ideas come from being clever
Endure in everlasting

Focus on center stage
Performance and overture having an amaze
Music that sets the mission
Scenery and spotlight in precision
Cast all in formation
Eyes watch and observe
Every given word
Voices everywhere being heard
Utterance and tolerance words
Dramatics take effect

I need to hear a true confession
Lies have been within the moments
Truth needs to be said
There was a ******
Yet silence of darkness
Pin drop sound
Suddenly evidence appears
Clues all along
The Stars and the moon knew
My heart even was certain
Truth was pushed to the surface
There was a hush illustrated
Truth setting free
Happiness with closure
Anguish prior
The hourglass that was waiting
Intersession

Full applause
An exit out

You are the then and can

Let your writing start on this very date
Associate and Appreciate
Writing no matter what age, it is never too late

Walking legs of others, please hush
Journey into continued movement
No hold back
Wheelchair staying on track
Highway On Ramp
Wheelchair jam
Wheelchairs with their own speed limit

People in wheelchairs are the ones that know
Wheelchairs are people movers

preservationman Sep 2023
A wonder why?
What was the reason?
Beyond any reasoning
Remembrance of 9/11/2001
A day that was like yesterday, but unexpected
A past with the skies clear, sunny and true
Warning was on call with surprise
The former Twin Towers were attached
Two major Commercial airlines were used as missile jets
New York City and the entire world that was on caution
Onlookers petrified
New York City was terrorized
Yesterday with no purpose of a tomorrow
Sorrow still has no morrow
Closure always remembered
Today the skies spell hope
Heaven is the cope
Embrace the past with the moment of lives loss
Devastation ashes became risen
We are who remain have a reason and purpose to carry on
Remaining strong in togetherness
We are the chosen survivors enriched to stand
We can’t be stopped
Destruction is not our reward
Continuous striving
We are protected by a Mighty Fortress, the Lord
Terrorist thought they would win
They wanted our Soul’s to end
Heaven said, “I am the begin”
I am the Mighty that can
Wounds will never completely heal
Heartfelt in some family members and friends gone
Chosen few remain
9/11 always remembered
We are the unforgotten promises in remember
Even as we slumber
We have a reason to live
The loss being their sacrifice
Risen Sunrise and Sunset
Spotlights of living in divining hope
Everlasting
Soulful voices in the distance, always rise

HIGHRISE MOBILITY

Rise to the occasion
Platform shoe trend
Fashion history that came to an end
Walking high
Thinking tall
Ever so careful in not to fall
There’s a get up and get down
Disco fever
Back in the day platform shoes were the fashion
Today they are a mention
Men got plenty of attention
Today’s heritage
Honor with a privilege
Head up
Move bold
Dance floor beat
Platform shoes on the feet
Man’s fame
Feet that had no tame
No shame
What’s in a name?
Platform shoes were a big deal
For real
Alive and true
Compelled to pursue
Walk on with a step up

DOWNLOAD PRINCIPLE
preservationman Sep 2023
Dare to dream
A mind to needs to understand
Convene words
Heart expels
Storms torrent the soul
Emotions cry out
A loud voice says commit suicide
Die and be forgotten
Surrounded by defeat with no victory
Story in
Approaching conclude with no soothe
Understanding and purpose collide
It’s like there’s a small boat unable to hold steady
The mind feeling like waves shifting here and there
Alone in the struggles
A sunset that quickly turns dark
No one knows what I feel
Reality is for real
A told story, but who is listening?
Anchored in one’s own theory
Mystery unknown
Tomorrow only a virtue
Words hold true
Where do I stand?
The day, moment and hour
Darkened walls with authority
The time getting shorter
Midnight could very well be the second
Death calls
I have only one breath
The hour
Time out
I die.

SING OR NOT TOO SING
preservationman Aug 2023
Not a question
But a thought
Singing with tone of poetry words
Rhythm and sound being heard
A thought should or not
Sounds more like a plot
Perhaps a test in singing to see if a glass break
For Heaven’s sake
Maybe practice in prepare
Maybe I shouldn’t even dare
Gifted to sing
Performing is another thing
Sing with desire
I don’t want the Fire Department to come with singing causing a fire
I have been told good luck
I have also been thought my singing *****
I wonder, I really wonder
I wonder what Heaven would say?
Maybe ok
Perhaps singing, I should stay away
Practice makes perfect
Consider and try
Assurance is forming why?
Back again to sing or not
My throat feels as if something is tying a knot
My advice to everyone, bring your ear plugs
It is about to get real
Like it or not

ONCE UPON A SKY
preservationman Aug 2023
One minute sunny and clear
Suddenly cloudy followed by fear
Sometimes Rain
Followed by lightning and thunder
As a child I wondered why?
Why do stars twinkle?
Why are there so many planets?
Wondering child
School said Astronomy
Scientist said the Universe
As for the sky, God’s creation
I began to understand
All scientific
The beauty being terrific
Each night I would see the sky telling me a story
Glace and look up
Shooting stars that would zoom far
One wish
One hope
Believing heart
Caring soul
Behold
A story of wonder told
Into the unknown

Energized with endurance

**** in the eyes that see
It could be designated for me
****** in the mind and heart
Words were spoken, “I want you dead”
No instead
No speculation
Total elimination
Lies that were stated
Truth totally cut off

Anger on all sides
Nothing to say in provide
No need to hide
Hate being strong

Still **** on their minds

No appreciate, but hate
Soon will be dead
Nothing in between

Not your usual
Not uncommon
The once upon a time
That line might be fine
Love of the heart at times being kind
A glass of wine being a story added divine
Line by line
Word by word
The distance between what happened
Extending to
Thinking through and through
Perhaps a notion having a thought
A pass dream remembered
Caught in a nightmare trap
Storms that became violent
One pause of silent
A past wonder
Sunshine suddenly appeared yonder
Emotions opened up
Joy prospered
Expiration had no tire
I know, but questioned
Opinionated but was a suggestion
Inspiration rang like a Philadelphia Liberty Bell
That moment, I felt like William Tell
I can do this
Encouragement spoke
Proceed told
You are mighty and bold
Heaven’s hand your threshold
The story within a moment’s notice of time
The life being mine.

SHOWBIZ LIVE
preservationman Aug 2023
My memory lane
Entertainment in can’t complain
That would be lame
The Great White Way BROADWAY
My time at the Town Hall Theater on West 43rd Street in New York City
A City big and wide known as the Big Apple
The show was “I NEED A MAN’, a small role with a big cast playing a Date
Moment that took effect where time wasn’t wasted
It was as gospel play leading to spiritual
Nothing unusual
Showbiz seen through entertaining realize
Utter in the sound and it will be heard throughout the town
I hear voices chatter of words of who and how being heard
Care to dance or do you prefer to sit it out
The show must go on
The stage is where I belong
Life is never easy
Certainly not cheesy
Learned the Piano and ***** through a Professional Female Opera Singer and Male concert Pianist and Voice
Sometimes I cry and ask I want fame beyond my real name
Isn’t it rich
Be patient now
Through the light and dark, I have gone far
I know I was born to do this
Dancing is only part of the twist
Don’t stop me now or you will see my fist
Wait a minute, you told me you would give me that kiss
I guess it is a hit and miss
My memories in Pennsylvania came about through SHERATON HOTEL AND CONVENTION CENTER Lily Langtry Dinner Theater in Valley Forge, PA King of Prussia area
Juke Box Jubilee and Egyptian King
Ruling over colonies with dancing girls
The King was ready to be entertained
Appeared in “THE CHRISTMAS CAROL, THE NUTCRACKER and various other shows
One in particular being MOUNT HAVEN RESORT in Milford, PA in the. Heart of the Poconos
It was a musical moment of make believe delighting the audience
Some have said to me personally, “ I don’t know enough”
I call their bluff
All I can say is Spotlight, Dazzle, Music and audience applause
Showbiz best
Forever reminded
Uplifted and Determined
Encore being my finale
Showbiz friendly
My time being my fondest moments
Showbiz accomplished.

SEVEN SEAS APPROACH
preservationman Aug 2023
Sometime the sea makes you feel at ease
Then there are other times, sea please
The seasick feeling
The body that becomes unwilling
Over the waves
Now behave
Look below
A boat moving slow
Sea of wonder
A Lighthouse and shore yonder
Some say the seas are a friend
The question would be when?
Sea tail
Maybe the time I was drinking Ale
Breezes just confusing the senses
Ships seeing ships
Ever now and then a dip
A captain saying, “Sea legs tip”
Nonetheless, seas into miles of ocean
Emotions forming motion
Seas surrounded
Cruising over mighty waves
Maneuvering with the wind
Seas that always can
Sea guidelines when
Cruising without sinking
Chicken little thinking

BIBLE STUDY POET
preservationman Aug 2023
Eye on scriptures
Subject on words
Questions and answers
Knowledge and understanding
Aftermath experiences extending into wisdom
Lessons gained
Wonders that followed
Heaven’s lead
Worshippers proceed
Biblical historical back
Revelation to present time
Wonder in the mind
Faith that should be behind
Believing in receiving
Research with gain
Studying that will remain
Carrying out in every walk and talk
The Devil will always try to get in the way
Tell the Devil not today
The Lord’s defense always my getaway
Bible study always having a take away
Learn and your salvation will become stronger
Understanding will last longer
Sustaining will make you wiser
Bible Study that says it all
Let God’s knowledge be your call.

CHARLIE CHAN TRUMP
preservationman Aug 2023
Sounding like a sketch
One big stretch
Laughter with every move
Always trying to prove
Crash landing in not smooth
Yet laughter all the way
There is always a getaway
Every movement with no pause
Head turn with a left and right
A look of fright
Cornered in a plight
Distinction of pure delight
Every day and night
Words of wonder
Hope that comes yonder
What will be next?
Pie in the face
Laughter with every trace
Given the fence
By defense
Laughter until finally finished
Character’s own in distinguished

Dreams of entertainment
Full of amazement and surprises
Take a back seat Beauty and the Beast
We are a standalone being our feast
The music being for us both
Together we took an oath
A Teapot and cup and saucers are the ones who know
We will carry the show
Just follow the flow
Song and dance and perhaps a sketch
You the audience will have to catch
Creating the right effect
We don’t want the audience to reject
We will not be mean only lean
You won’t see much of a pour
Only our total performing galore
Our story our very own and it will be full blown
Teapot became a theory
Cup and Saucers a mystery
We were always sitting on a shelf or convent
Barely used or not used at all
We were considered a prop
I always had to accept like it or not
It was simply “NOT”
Disney thought they had it right
We took it as a plight
We were determined to show our talent
We refused to be silent
When the curtain rose and the spotlight was on
First the teapot went through the audience and asked, “Do you want some tea?”
The audience didn’t know exactly in how to respond other than laugh
The music started and that’s entertainment
Then the cup and saucers with their enchanting voices stating we are Cup and Saucers best
You are our guest
But we have only one request, “Don’t expect us to serve”
We are entertainment and that is what you deserve
Let’s go back into Teapot and cup and saucers time
On the table a teapot and cup and saucers that was always there
Alone with barely a touch
That doesn’t sound much
The table of beauty being a setting and we were decorative
Being objective
There was a party and the Teapot and Cup and Saucers were the highlight
Ready to fulfill
At will
Determined
There was some pour and detail
But without fail
Beautiful friendship
Pleasure to be your acquaintance
Music still playing enchanted
The stage is now full of dancers
Flashing lights
Teapot and Cup and Saucers dancing in delight
We shall dance
Suddenly the beast appeared being angry and upset
The duo of Teapot and cup and saucers had an effect
The question came up from the beast in why he wasn’t invited?
The response, Teapots and cup and saucers are the entertainers and you are only the prop when needed
It was on with the show
We put the beast finally in the know
The finale being an encore, the teapot and cup and saucers together a team
The audience stood up and applauded and the curtain came down
It was a teapot and cup and saucers with a pouring spirit
You have to give them merit
That’s entertainment the way it was meant to be
Encore

HIGHWAY LOVE
preservationman Aug 2023
Destination love
Romance being all the above
It was Greyhound Bus Schedule 101
Journey with a direction
The place being Los Angeles
The trip started from St. Louis, Missouri
Two passengers in particular were Mary and John
Those names I want to look upon
Mary and John sat together on the Greyhound bus
They were sitting side by side
Wait until you see how romance came a provide
It would be a long three days ride
Mary and John unknowingly had their heads leaning on each other
While they were asleep
By dawn, they woke up together and realized they had slept on each other the whole time
Mary apologized and so did John
That is how the romance got started
Conversations into continuous conversations
They really got to know one another
Comfortable in their reclining seats
They both reclined into each other’s heart
Mary was single and had no boyfriend
John on the other hand had a Girlfriend, but broke up
What a coincidence?
The Greyhound bus still maneuvering to its final destination
Love seemed to be on Mary and John
Everywhere the bus stopped for a break, you would find Mary and John together
Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner was a calling card to both
One would think was this an oath
Los Angeles they finally arrived
John was in Los Angeles for a Lawyer’s Convention
Didn’t I tell you, John was a Lawyer
With all the romance and conversations that was going on I completely forgot
Perhaps it was on purpose
Mary on the other hand was on vacation from her Fortune 500 Corporation as an Executive Assistant to a Managing partner for two weeks
John was going to be in Los Angeles for two weeks himself
Somehow love is going to get even closer without warning
It did, they started dating immediately
On and On and On and continuous
They would often be seen holding hands and kissing
It was Greyhound bus connection with no transfer of love
Mary and John got in touch with each other’s hearts
True highway love
Arrival into romance
Now are Love Mates

SIZZLING HOT
preservationman Aug 2023
Steamy and sizzling
Hot and humidity running all through the body
There were urges, strong urges
The need for intimacy
Love on the mind
There was desire with no turn down
Temperature was rising beyond
The fire was ready to ignite
Romance day and night
***** were level up
Interlude decree
I wanted to just let go
But knew I had to take it nice and slow
The need being desire
Sweat was pouring down my body
The summer heat couldn’t control my feelings full of emotions
My gears had shifted
Female eyes and a man’s body
I was ready set to go
Finally relieved

COUCH POTATO
preservationman Aug 2023
Not an Idaho brand
Excess weight demand
Exercise in hesitate
Many people can relate
Body fat
Before and no after fact
The couch being the guest of human weight
For Heaven’s sake
The problem of give and take
Get up from the couch
Some people become a slouch
Exercise is the way to get rid of fab
Physical Fitness tab
Give the couch a break
If the couch had words, it would be “Get Up”
Start walking
Get that fat off
Stop being lazy
It is just crazy
All the couches banned together, and have stated, this is a couch potato war
We the couches refuse
We are tired being used.

FOREVER
preservationman Jul 2023
What does it look like?
How would it feel?
No one can say until they see it
It depends if you live
Throughout life in what was contribute in give
Forever being a lifetime
Patience being golden
The heart being holden
Many yesterday’s continuous
Tomorrow’s offspring everlasting
Endless with no provisions
Separation with no Divisions
Enter in being joyous
Always
Forever being a onetime claim
If you don’t see forever then you are the blame
Imagine forever living
Forever being a promise many years ago
Biblical said so
Some see Forever being fear
Some don’t know what to expect and don’t want near
No one knows what their Forever looks and sounds like
It is proven over time
Precious moments
Forever moves forward
One can’t be weak like a coward
Onward
Forever’s voice live forever
You enter through a door of a lifetime
Blessing beyond
Expectancy upon
Everlasting among
