#wisely
I saw you off that day. I exiled you!
You came back to me the very same as a pigeon.
You flew through the opened door deliberately
And wisely as if it should be so. You were sure in.
I packed you off that day. I removed you.
You returned to me like you didn’t even notice.
You closed the door behind, looked steadily
And smiled as if you were looking at an Indian lotus.
I forbade you to suffer privations with me that day.
You as though didn’t get it and stopped at the same thing.
You made fresh tea and stayed by my side that day
And began to make silly jokes to set me kookily laughing.
I don’t let you go! I’ll keep you close to me everywhere.
I’m stuck to you! I’m trapped inside you in whole!
If you didn’t go that day, then stay evermore, for all time.
I love you much! I need none other in my life at all.

"Choose your battles wisely"
That's what every they say repeatedly
Could never naysay exclusively
But could say it absolutely might turn gale force to breezy
It would earn a win column that's mostly empty,
Some much needed tally marks in a hurry, though not in a flurry
Admittedly, that's not necessarily necessary nor would it come anywhere near a reality
Because honestly, even a visionary wouldn't be able to foresee a victory
It's looking to be mostly negativity
As far as the third eye can see
So the convoluted parlor tricks hit particularly sloppy
A complete absence of accuracy
The glass crystal ball looking back blindly
Really, all that's needed is to recap some history
Finding quickly,
A guess holds the same weight as that forgery
More importantly
Pay attention,
Who holds the pen
And
Who writes the story

To be treated with dignty and respect.
To be told the Truth.
To be listened to and be heard
A sincere and meaningful acceptance, that I was misunderstood.
That is all I expected, still expect and will always do.
Rest all doesn't matter, never did, neither will.
That's how simple life is, Why to complicate it?

“choose your hugs wisely...(the hug has to spark joy.)”
the pandemical advice columns arrive
unceasingly,
mostly repetitive, causing/repairing minor league
glitches,
but stumbled on the advice above, dumbstruck,
flummoxed
and yes, by god, even that poet’s favorite,
gobsmacked,
thinking wow, great advice,
for the entirety of our remaining days!

A new dawn is upon us all,
as we look up as the sky breaks softly.
This new dawn always comes to us,
either at the end of a storm.
This new dawn is the remedy that we all need.
For if we look forward to a new dawn,
we will always have hope for the betterment of all.
For new dawn is upon us all use it wisely and bountifully
and hope it last long before the storm approaches us once more.

Our Thread is too short
So pick a needle
That can make blanket
When your summer is cold
Our thread is too short
So pick a needle
That lead our way to Lord,
When we are sightless
Our thread is too short
So Pick a needle
That can pierce every cloth
And hindrances that coming forth
Our thread is too short
don't pick me
If you're just
Going to make a
ball of thread for your dog

We are but chess peices,
And the next move is
Never predetermined...
For we are a fluctuation of
Random interactions.
Fate can't cage us,
for we are always
two steps
That are never the same.
Your move make it wisely.

We all need food,
to feed our souls-
choose wisely.

We live in a ****** up world that we created
People blame society, but those are the same people who made it
Those who blame society are the same people who are scared to face it
Those who are different are the people who try to erase it
We live in a world where drug abuse and ****** is a frequent thing
In this world its hard to find a ******* decent being
You surround yourself with people who bring you down
They get you in some **** and now you look like a clown
You look to them for help but they are no where to be found
Now you're in court about to be jail bound
All because they asked you to hold their drugs so they didn't get searched
You got caught and now you're the one whose hurt
You did 8 years for possession of drugs that weren't even yours
Your spent every day on all fours doing chores for people that would have no problem slamming your head in the door
Now you're out and you have nobody to turn to
Your friends and family were so ashamed the had no choice but to desert you
You lost all hope because you have no one left
So you over dose in hopes that you'd die while you slept... ****

Our days are limited
Our lives can't be edited
Live it wisely
Live precisely
Never amount to much
Never become a nasty bunch
Remember these tips
And spread them using those lips
Teach them with your voice
Always with poise
Sure do wish you wont remorse
Cause life has such a puzzling course

Within us there is a world unseen
Where a young spirit seeks to know
The voice he begins to hear each day
As His passion for life now grows
He will begin to make tough choices
As the voices within become so alive
Leaving him to seriously ponder daily
Which choice might be wrong or right
For everything he attempts each day
Alone with the choices his heart will make
Will deeply affect the life road he chooses
And within his spirit will now be at stake
Inside the voices strive for dominance
Like two hungry wolves over a tasty meal
And with the choices which are made in life
One gives a blessing while the other kills
We must always seek to be very cognizant
Of the choices each day which are made
So when the end time appears in our lives
By the Name of Jesus we are forever saved.
