Experienced, Jimi, all my patience be in my fingers memory where we all make believe, one day, after ever begins, untying tales tied through ever from mere best wishes, muttered as some thing like wishing, and breathe-ing, thunk thanks, thanks received, re thunk, Lincoln's melancholy deception, counter punched determination, remember wonder when it was so real wonder where it went when, she, so real opened my cell door to say good bye, asreal as any angelic logic circuitry, trial by jello time, daily trudge, down to the bottom of the backside of sysiphian quotidian key uses fructifying from fresh sown pollen, swelling buds be Pretti Good to think winds outside somewhere cold, think nope, as we inside co-here, musing, thinking, hope, as we trope cognative gesture letting us be a we presiding windform swirl in mind, cloudy litly see, gray granite breakers resisted in the east, as a we still affected by an artist's tryumph, as if, as a we we all actually needed Michael J. Fox, to give us a wonder filled with ifs and whats wished for us.

You’re not an old doggy yet But I know eventually you’ll start to gray I remember when we first brought you home all you wanted to do was sleep and play You were just 9 weeks old, so tiny but growing every day Now your paws have gotten bigger,
and your zoomies fill the hall.
You are still chasing toys and wagging tails,
though you don’t seem quite as small. You greet me every morning,
With those bright and loving eyes,
A loyal friend through all the years,
A bond that never dies. One day your steps may slow a bit,
And silver may touch your face,
But no matter how the seasons change,
You’ll always have your place.

Not an old dog yet
On the road outside Of the fence The Border Collie hears The call of the Doggies On the inside Enclosed behind The wooden fence The Alaskan malamute The Drever, the Poodle Bustle the edge of the barrier Bark, bark, bark A cacophony Let us out Let us come with you Pledging to obey, The Collie On hind legs Of a towering stature Lifts a paw Finds the latch The gate creaks open Uncorking in celebration They run in gleeful circles Hounds to escape artists Unbound and free from tyranny Of a heartless master Marking their new territory Of tree trunks Sidewalks and fields Have you ever seen Such jubilation Mirth and gaiety Wagging their tails Like helicopter blades With gail force glee They take off Like upside down rain Up, up, up Every which way Friends forever Boundless canines In search of the next immured pooch who waits For the musketeers

The goat, it ran With all its might To escape bearing the blame. The goat, it ran Far out of sight Until it bore great pain. The goat had thought It escaped flood With the cover of night’s veil, But then, the goat had realized Blood Was dripping from his tail.

Fairies knit tales, but they don’t have tails, I don’t think.   Dog’s do. Long, with an abrupt end – that’s usually moving, while never escaping its tether. Is that the idea? – that no matter how far the tail goes, it will never get out of hand. Unless it’s docked of course – that is the saddest tail, a stump of a tail that still tries its best, but is destined for a short and disappointing end. If I were a dog without a tail, I think I’d think it was the end of the world. If I were a fairy without a tale – I would be sadder still. The End.

Fairy Tails
I once met a pup Who liked to chase his tail Never once did he give up Determined not to fail Badly did he want his wagger Between his little jaw After he would stagger And then fall to the floor Not knowing what he desires He strives for what he sees Even when he tires Knows what he believes The days comes that I see His tail and his tongue Caught between his teeth All tangled up as one After 20 million circles Tail chasing phene Jumping many hurdles Not caring where he's been Finally achieving his dream He caught what he was chasing Success as it would seem The moment he's now facing The moment he worked hard for The challenge he accepted A journey paw after paw He let it all go in a second!

Chasing tails
So early that day, before the rising morn The prince kneels at the water, sad and forlorn And his brothers rise with a solution That to save him there must be an execution So they hand him a knife, sheen and bare Traded for their golden hair And tell him this **** he must complete And let the maiden’s blood drip at his feet Only this way could he enter the sea But the prince knows he cannot agree For it is not the maiden’s faught That it is the wrong man she sought And so the angels of the sky Hearing his sad, lovesick reply Seek to show the maiden the wrong obverse And fly down from heaven to break his mute curse And so finally he could speak again And he sprints to the wedding glen His voice calling to the maiden’s ears And hearing it, she cries joyful tears And as their words of love are spoken The last part of the spell is broken So that they will forever live on land The prince and the maiden, hand in hand

Do not fear tomorrow for tomorrow will never come do not fear the past for the past is already done do not cry for approval for approval gives no bread do not weep for the dying instead laugh with the dead follow the path of gravestones decorated with gold follow the dark and the light to see which one takes hold listen to the bird call follow the raven's trail listen to the wolf howl watch him shake his tail run as fast as we can back to where it began

He was a rat, she was a rat down in one hole we did dwell both were as pale as a witch's cat they loved each other well. He had a tail, she had a tail both long and fine each said 'yours is the finest tall in the world, except for mine.' He smelt the cheese, she smelt the cheese, they both said it was good. both remarked it would greatly add to the taste of our daily food. He went out, she went out, I saw them go with pain what happened to them i never can tell for they never came back again.

Rainy Road
I’m not sure what brought me to look up but i saw a lady red tail, perched atop the elm by the bus stop, With her head tucked under her wing, probably as cold as I was. I’ve only ever seen them with entrails in their mouth, at conservations and public gardens, among masses of tourists, and maybe their shadows in the top floor of the castle where i attended boring freshman classes. Once in the car driving up to the capital with my cousin- they’re said to be common though. Lady was different- she was small and seemed docile not unlike the fluffy little birds that made homes in the bricks at the station, making themselves bigger for warmth. I stopped in my tracks and stared, then looked around for someone to share her with- but everyone looked awfully busy.

Another lap around this body, Downing the tail like a snake. I can not seem to find the end, Is this karma or is this fate? Creeped up on me, Like lichen up a tree. Spread like frost, Over a bedroom window. The pain came fast, And the death is coming slow. I enter out and exit in, Downing the tail like a snake. I am going back in again, Is this karma or is this fate? I stared too far into the abyss, Dived too deep into it’s depths. It burnt a crater in my mind, Making a home in the space inside. I turn my inner eye to see the trail you left behind, Searching for the beginning and the end. I can’t tell the distance you will take from me, But I know it is a poison that is killing me. I’ve wasted too much time, Hating you, When I should have been, Embracing you. I pull the tail a little out my throat, Every time I step towards forgiving you.

Marry me Marry me My shining beauty Dance with me Dance with me On this spinning merry go round I am a fairie And you are a wizard Together we make magic In a world thats a blizzard Shine with me Shine with me On top the moonlit sea Run away Run away Together into the forest I'll twinkle my wings As you wave your wand I'll never lose your reflection In this glistening pond

Magic
When a dog chases it’s tail, Does it get bored after it catches it? Or does it hang on tight, Running circles through the night? If I chase you again, Will you continue to run? Run away forever, Some sick idea of fun? And if I become as fast as light, Will I be the dog that hangs on tight? Or will I too get bored, And leave your life fragmented and ignored?

When they see their off spring being lifted out of their place Hung by their tail, they squeal and cry for their parents recuse, their heart's race. Devastation stings their round soft ears as they run for their baby's call But as they see the hand raise their child over their height of limitation, their hopes and dreams fall... It was too late... SMACK went the poor, frail body and skull of the little one... The hand quickly slammed it against the table... Now knocked out...no way to escape or run SNAP The two fingers forced its neck bone to submit to their strength The parents time of grief and mourning had no length Frozen shock is the only expression that defines their baby mouses face In a Blank stare of horror as the blood dripped from their once beloved babies lips... leaving a ****** taste They scurry away in disbelief to gather the rest of their kin that still remain alive... Because they'll never know who will be up next... to be forced to give up their life... and die Because... Something always has to be sacrificed... in order to keep something else alive...
