I’m Not A Robot

      There’s so many versions
Of how the world ends
Some have brother fighting brother
And friends against friends

Others feel that it’s time for another
Asteroid from Space to strike
And some see the likes of a planet
Ruled by Apes and that’s what I like

Because it would be funny to hear the
Conversation of Apes about evolution
The high powers writing their history
Ensuring they have the only solution

Evolving from Humans the proof
Was discovered in the vaults of Shang
That nothing spontaneously burst
Into Everything by virtue of a big bang

Yet I think the reality is the takeover
By AI though our destiny we know not
I am seeing evidence right on my phone
When I have to prove I’m Not A Robot

Impermanent Universe

  Like a river flows, life moves on
A moment comes and the moment is gone
In that moment did you shine
Did your heart give love, was it genuine

Or like lightning did you strike and burn
In your heart did hatred churn
Did you play a part in the Devils role
Did your darkness consume another soul

Like a song bird so beautiful when it sings
See the beauty that love always brings
If there’s something bringing you down
Only you have the power to turn it around

Like reading a book we must turn the pages
If in our hearts our anger rages
Because like a stone causes ripples on a pond
We are all responsible for what we spawn

For every moment we hesitate
It never changes the hands of fate
We all get what we give
And our lives we cannot relive

It’s your story that you’re writing
Why fill the pages with fussing and fighting
Everything is temporary, there’s no reverse
In this Impermanent Universe

I’m Too Slow For Breakfast

    I love breakfast, a good omelette
Or eggs over easy and some toast
Add sausage and hash browns too but
Sausage biscuits and gravy, I love most

But breakfast comes early and fast
And now I’m lucky if I get brunch
Time has slowed me and more times
Than not I usually just get lunch

It’s a sad, sad thing and  sometimes
I feel like a loser instead of a winner
I hate not getting a morning breakfast
So sometimes I have it for dinner

My dilemma is real for the morning
It just moves so very fast
I can’t get motivated and time
Doesn’t stop and mornings don’t last

To sum it up with my poetic description
Breakfast mornings are a swift tempest
I’m like an aged slimy slow moving snail
And I’m Too Slow For Breakfast

I’m in a Dark place
I know that God will get me through
To the light but just know I am
Feeling a sense of non existence.
Please pray for me.

In Between

We have no future,we have no past
We drink no *****,We smoke no grass
We are not hip and we are not squares
But who we are,nobody cares
We're in between
Do you know what I mean
We're in between
Do you know what I mean
If you don't understand let me take you to the promise land
We can walk hand in hand
Through the sand
People cannot see
People like you and me
For we are different from
All the others
We have no sisters
We have no brothers
Our lives have gone to fast
We have no future
We have no past
We're in between

Inclusion

    It’s funny when I look back now
Oh how much things can change
Yet I still find myself an outcast
And I carry on in my world so strange

Everything else has changed but people
Still live life like High School
There’s all the clicks and you’re in or
You’re  out and then there’s me the stool

No matter how nice I am and no matter
What I do, I still just can’t win
No matter if I always treat others right
There’s not a click that lets me in

I poor my heart out and open my soul
And to my face they say I’m the best
But my guidance they discard when
They join with the rest

I’m there for them when no one else is
Around and I let them use me
As soon as others arrive they disappear
It’s always the same they always abuse me

Two faced people taking pleasure in
In someone else’s pain
Especially when they know your past
Because you told them about the rain

But I just come to the realization
That their lives must really ****
And it’s me that they envy
So I must always be my best Chuck

Because I truly have God and my Angel of
37 years, they are my rock keeping me strong
When the rest of the world can be so cruel
As they treat me oh so wrong

It’s funny when I look back on the past
My head would whisper of Suicide jive
But also the voice in my ear would be
Telling me that I must survive

So here I am living life to its fullest
Soon off to Hawaii and after to see KISS
And those who shun me will always live
A life that’s meaningless

Because they care for nothing and no one
And it’s obvious that God doesn’t exist
Though they know he’s there knocking
But to open the door they still resist

So the bottom line is I’ll never let them
Bring me down and in conclusion
I know I don’t need them and I am okay
Without being a part of the inclusion

Inside The Walls

   In the darkness all alone, I can hear something but  I can’t figure it out
I could just be losing my mind
Which leaves me with some doubt

The sound is faint but it breaks the silence
It keeps me awake as I lay in my bed
Both scenarios frighten me, is something
There or is it in my head

I have all of these thoughts just
Racing through my brain
As the night slowly creeps, I find myself
On the edge of becoming insane

I find myself being paralyzed, unable
To make a sound, let alone a scream
I begin to pray that in the morning I
Will awaken to find it was just a dream

But even so I wonder if tomorrow night
I will hear the same whispered calls
And I’ll wonder if it’s just in my mind
Or is someone inside the walls

Inter Me

      Who am I, do I even know myself
Thoughts I have some old and some new
I try to keep an open mind, I’m not
Afraid to see a different view

If you look closely, you will see
Variations of one dominant personality
It’s not necessarily a confirmation
That there’s a glitch in my reality

I’m just a man with a heart of gold
My intentions are usually good
But no matter what I say or do
Sometimes I’m still miss understood

My thoughts I transform into my
Poetry with words that tend to rhyme
Forever on the internet riding a wave
On an invisible cloud in space and time

And with each one posted it’s clear
To see the range of my diversity
And see my soul to the Devil will never
Be sold, so keep reading to inter me

Internal Combustion

    No need to worry about WW3
Or about an Asteroid from Space
Or being swallowed by the Sea
Or the invasion of an Alien Race

Don’t worry about a biblical flood or fire
Though Jesus will return
Humans have lost their hearts and desire
History lessons they didn’t learn

Loved ones turning on each other
Because of Political divide
Father Son, Mother daughter, sister brother
Separating as they choose a side

Born to love, innocent child
Grow up to hate as an adult
The world is in chaos Neanderthal wild
Be aware of the blind assault

Heartless no remorse in killing
Get in line behind the Antrustion
So easily and so willing
Disaster comes with Internal Combustion

In The Color Of Night

       Life that was once of family and
Love filled with times of togetherness
Long gone and forgotten lost in the
Shadows of darkness and loneliness

Family picnics and reunions and
Birthday parties are now just memories
Euchre tournaments and Christmas
Parties are in vaults of past centuries

No one ever calls but may send a random
Or rare text Separated by generations gap
Lost are the ones that were the glue
The Elders left behind didn’t adapt

Technically still bonded by blood
But it’s the only way we’re connected
Now we’re just people we once knew
And more like strangers rejected

The only time we’re together is when
One of us dies and walks into the light
When everyone cries around a casket
All dressed In The Color Of Night

In The Darkness Of The Night

      I hear the sounds of war, bullets streaming
The bombs bursting and men screaming
I see only by fires light
In the darkness of the night

I try to sleep but rest doesn’t come easy
Now this nightmare is mine for eternity
I’ll always see the images vivid and bright
In the darkness of the night

I see the fear in my buddies eyes
I see him ****** as he dies
I promised his survival from this horrible plight
In the darkness of the night

Why must we go against Gods will
With weapons made solely to ****
Thousands die in each ****** fight
In the darkness of the night

I long for the touch of my love
I pray to God in the Heaven above
I see myself horrible in his sight
In the darkness of the night

I don’t know if I can live with what I’ve become
I fear my heart is completely numb
Can I still love her and hold her tight
In the darkness of the night

The man I was I am no more
And for my mental illness there is no cure
Even safe at home visions are trite
In the darkness of the night

Scarred by bullets scarred by knife
In my brain I’m scarred for life
I hear bullets streaming,bombs
bursting and men screaming,
I pray for the days light
In the darkness of the night

In The End

       Well there’s two sides to every coin
And there’s two sides to every story
And in every game there’s defeat
And then there’s obviously glory

There’s riches in currency and
There’s riches in Silver and Gold
There’s a life of youth and there’s
A life you spend when you’re old

There’s sparkling shining jewelry
Beautiful Necklaces and rings
There’s a plethora of worldly possessions
So many meaningless material things

Some might say that it brings true
Happiness but it’s just fake
But you believe what you wish and
By all means get all you can take

But life is temporary and so is everything
In it and that’s the truth my friend
You can’t take it with you and there’s
Only Heaven or Hell In The End

In The Mist Of Darkness

    In the mist of darkness
I will continue to shine
For I have the love of Jesus
In this heart of mine

In the mist of darkness
When the world is falling apart
Just like Atlas I will stand strong
With nothing but love in my heart

In the mist of darkness
If I get knocked down
I’ll get back up again and
Firmly place my feet upon the ground

In the mist of darkness
One thing will always be true
Just like Jesus, if you reach for me
I’ll be there for you

In the mist of darkness
When the tears fill your eyes
I’ll be steadfast with the truth
In a world filled with lies

There’s no mythical Unicorn or Pegasus
But like the hundred eyes of Argus
Evil will surround us, especially
In the mist of darkness

In The Woods Beneath A pine

    Last night I slept next to his
Body one last time
They may have his head
But they won’t get mine

Did she **** him and is she
Now a fugitive on the run
Or did they **** him and they
Need to get her for the job to be done

If I left it there, it would be
A deep dark mystery
But I will continue on and reveal
A story from our grim history

The year was eighteen sixty five, the
Slaves were freed and the KKK was born
The Republicans fought for race equality
And the Dems felt a deep scorn

The leaders of the Democratic Party
Believed the good black was a dead black
Earlier that night they burned a cross on
His lawn and later came the attack

They were known as the men in white
Pastors and law men and the butcher
They killed her husband and now
They were out to catch her

As the clock strikes midnight, in the
Distance she hears the howls of the canine
As she stops for a quick breath
In the woods beneath a pine

Into The Night

   As the day slips away
And the dusk turns to twilight
I know my tears are gonna flow
As time gives into the night

Our love was passion and fire
I knew I was never gonna be the same
And now it’s all just a memory and
In the night the wind whispers your name

And as people see me now
There’s no words that can be spoken
I didn’t know a heart was made of glass
And how easily it could be broken

Now that you’re gone, with each day
The love inside of me slowly dies
You were taken too soon and forever
I’ll be haunted by your green emerald eyes

Time is irrelevant, pain is constant
As I’m faced with the reality of my plight
And I fear getting lost forever in my
Dreams as I enter Into The Night

Into The Night

   Like a bridge over troubled water, I’ll
Be your safe passage to the other side
When you’re afraid and trembling, let
Me be the one place you seek to hide

Like a light house Beacon, I’ll
Be your guide back to the shore
When you’re in need of comforting
Let my arms hold you tight forever more

Like your favorite song I’ll be
The music that will calm you
When life gets to be overwhelming
Let my voice be strong and true

Like an Army of a thousand men, I’ll
Fight Hell to keep you from harm
Let me be the one to answer the call
When you sound the alarm

Like the brightest Moon light, I’ll
Shine when you’re in darkness fright
Let me be with you forever when
You go uncertain Into The Night

Invisible

     Alone again in a crowded room,
Am I dead or just dead to you
Do I still have a breath of life
Or have I gone cold and blue

So close and yet so far away
We were reaching for it all
Climbing to the top but now it’s
Clear that I have taken a fall

I speak my words but it’s like
They’re just sounds of silence
I can’t understand why you’re
So steadfast in your defiance

You’ve got no room for compromise
But love can’t be bought or sold
I tried to give you everything but
You left me standing alone in a world so cold

When our love was new you had
A way of making me feel invincible
But now everything has changed so
Drastically and  I feel I’m Invisible

Invisible Man

  I’ve been working my job one hundred
Percent, blood sweat and tears
Community service to my best ability
For the past ten years

Everyone knows my name and everyone
Knows my heart and soul
They know the work and service
I provide as I play my role

With each day my only challenge
Is the fight I have with myself
I wish I could take my thoughts
And store them on a shelf

But the bottom line is no matter
How far that I go above and beyond
It’s taken for granted and won’t be
Noticed until I’m dead and gone

I slip in to start my day unnoticed and
I go out and do everything I can
I come back stealthy as well and
It’s like I’m the invisible man

Invisible Man

       You live your life, working for the
Man clocking in and clocking out
You ask yourself what’s the purpose
What’s this life all about

Sometimes you just want to get away
Somewhere far across the sea
Just to escape the darkness that surrounds
You but a loaded gun couldn’t set you free

You’ve seen your heroes on
The big silver screen
You wish you could be like them
But you’ll never be that keen

You might feel a need for praise
That you have never gotten
But deep down you’re just hoping
To be someone that’s not forgotten

When your life on Earth is through
And it’s put under a careful scan
Will the results clearly indicate that
You were more than an Invisible Man

In Your Darkest Hour

   In Your Darkest Hour
When the Demons Come
There is no surrender
You must never succumb

In your Darkest Hour
You must stand tall and fight
You must always remember to
Stay focused on the light

In your Darkest Hour
Loudly sing your fight song
Never show signs of weakness
Keep yourself firm and strong

In your Darkest Hour
Remember Jesus and in him confide
His promise to you is that
He’ll always be by your side

He says call on me brother
And together your Demons we will devour
I will always be with you
In Your Darkest Hour

I Remember You

     With every gentle misty rain
With every slightest pinch of pain
With each time I feel strange
With the ultimate winds of change

As each note weaves in and out of time
As each word searches for a remembered rhyme
As each lack of air makes me yawn
As each night receives its dawn

When every butterfly gets its wings
When every bird in the morning sings
When every time I stumble and blunder
When every Lightning is followed by thunder

With every mistake that I make
With every breath that I take
With every child I see at play
With every second that ticks away

As each memory I smile from ear to ear
As each time I shiver in fear
As each sky turns cold and grey
As each time it’s a bright sunny day

When I find myself alone
When I’m being dragged down by the stone
When your comfort comes shining through
I remember you

In memory of my mother
Passed away 1991

I Stand Victorious

      From the Beginning worthless
It was etched into my brain
Like a fire breathing Dragon over a
Mid evil kingdom Darkness would reign

There was always an echo that rang
The barrage of those words of steel
I was Like a slave of the Roman Empire
With whip lashed scars that wouldn’t heal

I began to hate myself and it was like
Being consumed by a black whole
I secluded myself from the world
And I lost my self control

I secured my heart in a vault
Complete with a lock and chain
I didn’t care if I lived or died
Because I lived with so much pain

I was my own worst enemy never being
Known to Be gregarious
But I was saved by Jesus and his Angels
And now I Stand Victorious

I Still

   When I first saw her
My knees got weak
When I first met her
I couldn’t speak

When we had our first date
My heart was beating faster
I was a fish out of water
It was a beautiful disaster

I was under the influence
And my heart was exposed
I fell to the floor
The night I proposed

When she said yes
My heart soared into outer space
She is my Angel
She is my saving grace

Every time I see her even now
After all these years do I get a chill
I can honestly say the answer is
Yes you better believe I still

It Only Takes One

  Just food for thought
Something I’ve been thinkin
Something we all need to comprehend
And let it all sink in

You know how it is on a rainy day and
The rule is we should have our lights on
But you know some won’t
Yes there’s always one

The snow has been falling for hours
Over night so you scrape your car clean
And there’s the lazy one just wiped a spot
On the drivers side you know what I mean

So now there’s this virus we all know
The all powerful COVID—Nineteen
Shutting down a nation and people dying
But some people aren’t so keen

There’s the ones who just don’t care
And some just can’t understand
So what’s the big picture for the
Rest of us here in the heartland

I fear  this is something that will
Continue and  it will never be gone
Because the world is filled with the
Stupid and it only takes one

Bad drinking water and our environment

Doom but there’s a need for enlightenment

It’s Been A Long Time

   It’s been a long time since
I let him come out to play
It’s been a long time since
I let him enjoy the day

It’s been a long time since
I opened up the doors for the daylight
It’s been a long time since
I let the breeze flow, with delight

It’s been a long time since
I turned the stereo up loud like this
It’s been a long time since
I threw on some KISS

It’s been a long time since
I felt that child I’ve left behind
It’s been a long time since
I felt so unconfined

It’s been a long time since

Today I let the kid inside of me come out
To play but it’s been a long time

IT’S  GONE

        Well it’s all in the past
You know the way that it was
You know the way we were
It’s gone

Lost is the tingle
Lost is the wanting
Lost is the needing
It’s gone

I can’t find the passion
I can’t find a reason
I can’t find my way
It’s gone

Lost in the darkness
Lost in the pain
Lost in my mind
It’s gone

I can’t find the feeling
I can’t even fake it
I can’t explain it

It’s Very Deep

       Sometimes I feel fuzzy and full
Of love and happiness and affection
And other times there’s a darkness
And life is going in the wrong direction

Sometimes there’s no philosophy
And thoughts are worthless or cheap
But then there’s times when I can
Surprise myself with something deep

Thus is the case with this but you might
Want to smack me and call me a creep
So you might not want to continue
Reading this and take that leap

Poetry is something that I dig
And I know you dig it so true
So we dig it and he digs it and
She digs it and they dig it too

And so now that it’s done
I hope you feel that it wasn’t too steep
But I hope we can all agree
That at least It’s very deep

It Takes Two

    When you fall in love
It's no longer just about you
Love is a commitment
It takes two

When things go wrong
You have to see it through
You can't just throw it all away
It takes two

You have to know your loved
One by heart
You should know when they
Are blue
Know what it takes to make
Them smile
It takes two

Know that the best gift in
Life is love
And always be true
Never turn your back on love
It takes two

Don't let your love fade
Find away to keep it new
Always give your love your heart
It takes two

Know the warning signs
When trouble is about to brew
Think before you speak
It takes two

Have faith in God and family
They will always be there
For you
And remember always remember
It takes two

I've been to Hell

  To hell,to hell,
I've been to hell
To hell,to hell,
I've been to hell

I've been beaten and
Mentally scarred
I've been to hell and
I'm permanently charred

I've choked on the smoke
I've felt the fires heat
I've smelt the devils breath
As he took to his seat

To hell,to hell,
I've been to hell
To hell,to hell,
Oh how the devil loves
To ring his bell
To hell,to hell
I've been to hell

I've hit rock bottom
In the shadow of doubt
I was lost in hopelessness
There was no way out

But I was bound and
Determined to survive
And with the help of angels
I made it out alive

I was in the company of
The sinner,thief and liar
I was surrounded by
Darkness and fire

But I never gave up
In the fight
Now I am saved and
I can see the light

But know that I’ve been to Hell

My father was an abusive alcoholic
He was the Devil. I feared him
And he would sit at the table and
Chain smoke and drink his beer
I smelled his nasty breath and choked on
His cigarette smoke
And felt the fires heat from his angry
Hurtful words and felt the sting
Of his fist on my face.
I lost my self in depression and drugs
And bad company. He loved to ring his bell
Bragging about himself.
This was my hell. I am free now!!!
This was the sequel to Words Of Steel.
God Bless!!!

I’ve Decided To Write A Book

I will write a book of short stories and
My poetry and it will be titled

I Will Re Evaluate
          My Own Intelligence

   It is the year twenty, twenty
We have come a long way right
So our intelligence should be high IQ
Our future well and bright

This was my thought as I go about
My every day simple task
But I look and see intelligence must
Be blocked by some type of casque

The brain of modern mankind
Has not advanced as it was perceived
Intelligence is far from reach
And is going un received

A media panic was put upon our nation
And for whatever reason everyone needed TP
Some one please help me, for now I feel
As if it’s fifty billion BC

What is the connection between the
Coronavirus and this
Was there a memo or warning of
Some kind, what did I miss

Are we a people of caveman brains
I really thought we were smarter
If we are, I guess everyone’s brain
Just left town on a charter

But the reality is, no we haven’t advanced
At all and so now with great diligence
Because I was wrong About us humans
I will re evaluate my own intelligence

Jesus And Dogs

    As we go through life and
Just live the life we are living
There’s one thing we know
Jesus and dogs are always forgiving

When people give up on you as they
Become inpatient, it can be so frustrating
But again here we are knowing
Jesus and dogs will always be waiting

Love can be so hard to find and yet
Love can be such an easy thing to lose
But you can never go wrong with love
If Jesus and dogs are what you choose

I’m not an expert on anything really so
Maybe I shouldn’t be giving advice to you
But if you investigate I’m sure you’ll find
What I say of Jesus and dogs to be true

You won’t find it in magazines or catalogues
Nor will you get it from cats, frogs or hogs
You might as well just have a pile of logs
True love only comes from Jesus and dogs

P.S. Jesus gives his true love with gifts
Wives,husbands, family,friends,and especially
Dogs. This poem is dedicated to the dogs in
My life. Prince,Freely,Harley,Doby and Buckeye.


How could you not believe in Jesus
Getting unconditional love from my Buckeye.

Jesus Christ

   Unconditional love is the gift
Eternal life is the promise
Accept the gift and forever
You can embrace the calmness

One creator our God
One race is the human race
The truth we all know but refuse
To come face to face

One blood we all bleed
The color is red
Listen with your heart
And not with your head

There’s just one problem
And the problem is sin
But we don’t have to lose
When there’s a way to win

There was an answer when
He offered himself to be sacrificed
There’s just one solution
And it’s Jesus Christ

Jesus & Rock & Roll

    Well I ran into an old friend of mine
And it was clear something had him down
So I just gave him a hug and I said
Hey man what’s up with the frown

He said since I saw you last, I gave my
Heart to a woman, I guess I’ll never learn
She took my heart and what did she do?
She put it on the fire to burn

There was nothing I could do
To bring him a smile or any cheer
So I said let’s go to a bar
And I’ll buy you a beer

We sat and talked about old times
And we had a laugh or two
But the damage was done, I fear
That he’ll be forever blue

I said I gotta go and I was headed to the
Door and as I turned and waved goodbye
I saw that mans lip start to quiver
And a tear fell from his eye

And the words he said will haunt
Me until the day someone finds me dead
To be clear he said them twice and
Forever they will echo in my head

He said, take my advice my friend
If you want to save your soul
Do me a favor and just put your faith
In Jesus & Rock & Roll

Yes he said, take my advice my friend
If you want to save your soul
Do me a favor and just put your faith
In Jesus & Rock & Roll

Jesus Saved My Soul

    I’ve never been known for being well dressed
I sometimes can get so depressed
I can let life leave me so stressed
But I know that I am blessed

Literally you know I’ve been to Hell
I’m not sure what it means to be an infidel
Don’t know about a higher clientele
Could never seem to get off the carousel

My hearts been stabbed by the impeller
I feel like I crawled from a cellar
A real low life bottom dweller
My past is sadder than the story of old yeller

But I can say now it’s all behind me
From the chains that use to bind me
I have clearly broken free
Through the darkness the light I can see

The Devil has lost his control
Though I know I sin and love Rock & Roll
And I look like an ugly troll
It’s all good because Jesus saved my soul

Judgment Day Is Coming

     You think you are a sly one
Yes it seems you’re in the clear
But now you’ll always be looking over
Your shoulder in constant moments of fear

Your manipulation skills are grand
But this was like taking candy from a baby
You took advantage of your own parents
You’re such a classy lady

I know that you convinced them that your
Advice was sound and right
You presented everything in their best
Interest your plan was solid and tight

They were elderly and you circled like
A buzzard waiting for them to die
It wouldn’t surprise me if you murdered
Your father, when you called you didn’t cry

Sixty four thousand at least and a possible
******, Are you tossin and turnin at night
Or are you so smug and uncaring that your
Conscience is clear, you just turn out the light

You made sure the documents were signed
So everything went to you without suspicion
And now the ***** deeds are done
Your tricks were as smooth as a magician

I wonder as you smile with your arrogance
Can you hear the bag pipes humming
Earthly death will arrive some day lady
Judgment day is coming

This is a real life situation of family
Medicaid Fraud —$64,000 Thousand Dollars worth That we know of
Plus a possible ******
Main suspect is one of the Daughters of
My Father in law on my Wife’s side,
The man my wife’s mother married
This is under investigation.

Just One Twenty Four

   As we turned the corner
We could see the flashing lights
But there was more than normal
Usually a couple would suffice

It was just my little brother and I
And I could feel my stomach churn
This was just another day in the life
The way our world would turn

As we got closer the Police were backing
With Mom and their guns were drawn
The stove and refrigerator were thrown
Out on the back lawn

Mom rushed to hug us and we were put
In the back of a police car
They sped away with lights and sirens to
Grandma’s it wasn’t far

We were supposed to be safe there,
And as we were being taken away
We saw Dad on the front porch with a
Shotgun holding the Police at bay

Now at Grandma’s safe from harm
Just caddy corner from the Sugar Shack
A biker bar where there was a fight and
Police came, Bikers shot Police shot back

Bullets flying coming through the windows
Of Grandma’s apartment, we’re on the floor
We were crying and Grandma was praying
The bikers had ammo but the Police had more

The Sun went down and rose again
The world outside was very violent
Sirens were whaling and bullets flying
The night was never silent

I could tell you stories about getting beat up By Bullies and Gangs and so much more
They were also the world I survived
And the above was Just One Twenty Four

Just Walk Away

   For most of us we’re taught to do
Unto others as we wish they do unto us
It’s better to be nice and
Not give cause for a fuss

For others it’s do unto others
Before others do unto them
It’s a dog eat dog world, When we’re
thrown into the water it’s sink or swim

When someone treats us badly
The first instinct is to seek revenge
This has always been human nature
Even before the age of Stonehenge

So you live for that moment and
Again you come face to face
You want so badly and with anger
To put that person in their place

But I tell you from deep in my heart
Just take heed to the words I say
Your heart and soul will be better off
If you just walk away

Kalee

    She’s the daughter of a daughter
Of a cousin of mine
Such a pretty little thing
Who was destined to shine

She was an Angel in my eyes
She was perfect in her play
But things have changed, her wings
Are broken and her halo taken away

For I see her now through a smoky haze
As she’s in her grown up years
And it fills my heart up with sadness
And it fills my eyes up with tears

To hear her say those words and laugh
Especially when she had no clue
Though she was taken a stand for
A falseness she believed to be true

And she said those words
While standing so strong
Brainwashed by the media
Not knowing any better, she was oh so wrong

**** the police and they should
Just burn it all down
She didn’t know what she was saying
She didn’t care about her own town

Now there’s a shadow that hangs over
Her like a witches curse
I can’t turn back the hands of time
We can’t put this train in reverse

I will love her as always but now my eyes
Are jaded and I will never see
That Angel that I saw,
Whenever I looked at our Kalee

Written with a truly broken heart.
She’s family and I will love her always!!!

Kaleidoscope Eyes

   The first time that he saw her
She was such a beautiful surprise
It transformed his whole world, he
Saw everything with kaleidoscope eyes

Love at first sight is an understatement
Love is a phenomenon we can’t explain
The wheels were set in motion for his
Journey aboard a runway train

Head over heels he was for her
But she was just a modern day Delilah
She despised the male species
Their only obsession is the ******

She saw him coming from a mile away
She thought she’d take him for a ride
He was made to believe it was love
But she was laughing on the inside

Then she chose her time wisely to
To reveal her true self under the disguise
His heart was broken into a million pieces
But he still sees her with Kaleidoscope eyes

The Warning —A Rock Trio From Mexico.
Three Sisters who learned English from listening to American Classic Rock.
They are very talented and they are very pretty and I love them!!!

I use them in order, this is my way to share my new music passion and love for them. Also included is a Spanish translation of my poem that was done by another fan Please enjoy!!!!
Twenty First Century Blood
Queen Of The ****** Scene
Song from this CD is (Dust To Dust)
Error
Keep Me Fed


          Keep Me Fed

       Hear the warning, hear the warning
It’s so refreshing unlike the recent crud
I was sold from the very beginning
With their Twenty First Century Blood

My life has been reborn and you can
Love or Hate but there’s no in between
As for me I surrender, loving Dust to Dust
From Queen Of The ****** Scene

I am blessed even more and Its been
So long since I’ve received such pleasure
My stereo echoes with music from
The treasure of their latest Error

And it thrills me so very much it’s like
Making love for the first time
It’s hard to explain to the ones who have
No clue, hear their poetry sublime

With another one coming in June
On the cover they’re dressed in red
And I’m so hungry for more, oh
The Warning Keep Me Fed

Mantenme alimentado

     Escucha la advertencia.

Es tan refrescante a diferencia de la basura reciente.
Me vendieron desde el principio.
Con su sangre del siglo XXI

Mi vida ha renacido y tu puedes
Amor u odio pero no hay término medio
En cuanto a mí me entrego, amando a Dust to Dust
De la reina de la escena del asesinato

Estoy aún más bendecido y ha sido
Hace mucho que no recibí tal placer
Mi estéreo resuena con música de
El tesoro de su último Error

Y me emociona tanto que es como
Haciendo el amor por primera vez
Es difícil de explicar a los que tienen
Ni idea, escucha su poesía sublime.

Con otro llegando en junio
En la portada van vestidos de rojo.
Y tengo tanta hambre de más, oh
La advertencia mantenme alimentado

KISS-K-I-S-S
        Definition-(Keep It Simple Stupid)

Whispers in the wind, shadows glistening
Enchanted silo-wets naked together
In a longing embrace on a majestic cloud.
The universe to your beauty
Is why the weeping willow weeps
As the wind blows, hear nature speak.
The epitome of what is meant to be,
A stream in the meadow, a birds song,
A soft butterfly caress, a good witches spell
Never to be broken. Voices carry a love song everlasting with words that linger
All thrown together, never understood
And make no sense but because they are beautiful it seems they were written by a genius. Though I could write them if I tried I Simply just like to leave you with a KISS

Inspiration from Mark S
Dedicated to Mark S

KISS TIL I DIE

    I’ve just been destroyed by my father
In my room now with tears in my eyes
My head in my pillows
To muffle my cries

When I was through sobbing
I put the music of KISS on my stereo
It brought me out of my darkness
I keep them in my heart wherever I go

There was something about it
That kept me from suicide
I wear my T-Shirts proudly
My love for them I’ll never hide

No one knows what it’s like
What my past was for me
But I can honestly say that it
No longer exist, I am free

I may write about it as a testimony
To show the darkness I’ve been through
I wear my heart on my sleeve
And on my back and chest too

So you can put me down for
Liking KISS or at least try
You may say they **** but
For me it’s KISS TIL I DIE

Knights Of The Dammed

    Twelve were sent out of the Kingdom
On a quest to slay the last Dragon
They’re journey has just begun
As forces of evil make the sky blacken

In the wilderness they encounter pale
Hairless large creatures of the Devil’s spawn
So many in number that they could
Fill the vast prairie of Saskatchewan

The battle was long and exhausting
But the lives lost were surprisingly only four
They had to continue on with only
Eight remaining as the core

The next few days were uneventful
And they all got a great needed rest
But little did they know that they were to
face another challenge before the final test

As the Sun was setting on the fifth day
Dusk  revealed colors of purple and red
They also quickly noticed that they
We’re surrounded by the walking dead

Five more lost their lives and now
They must face the Dragon with only three
They were now at the edge of a desert
As they prayed beneath a Joshua tree

The Dragon came with nowhere to hide
They fought with heart and soul
And two survived as the Dragon was slayed
They were worthy of the extol

They arrived back to the kingdom victorious
Every challenge they were able to withstand
A new Army would be formed, trained by
The legendary Knights of the dammed

Kool Aide Kids

        Well unfortunately it’s that time again
Those political adds are dominating
I don’t care what side you’re on
And I don’t care who they’re nominating

I’m not here to sway your opinions
I’m not trying to tell you how to vote
But I am here to give words of caution
To give you something to take note

The media will feed you only what they
Want you to see and hear
They are servants of the Devil
And the Devil thrives on your fear

I just want you to do your own research
That’s my true and best advice
Don’t be so steadfast to stand your ground
Because you might be standing on thin ice

They want you to blindly accept their lies
They don’t want you to do your own thinking
They’re just here to supply the Kool aide
And the Devil smiles as we keep drinking

So please stop and turn off the noise
Don’t replicate like the Plasmids
You don’t need the sugar to decide
Please don’t be the Kool Aide Kids

Kryptonite

       I thought that I was invincible
Breaking hearts without caution or yield
But I wasn’t going to fall in love, no
Not with my love deflection shield

Every time I felt myself fallen, I’d search
The depths of love so profound
I’d put the brakes on and skid to a stop
And I’d just turn myself around

But as fate would have it somehow, like
With fall the color of the leaves change
The law of averages would take love
And put it on center stage

Every time you would come near
I found it difficult to see and speak
I’d feel my stomach turning and I’d
Lose my strength and my knees got weak

That’s when I knew what it was like to
Be Superman with his Super Human Might
And I realized that I didn’t stand a chance
Because I knew you were my Kryptonite

This is not a poem

Ladies/Men/Gay

  Ladies you are beautiful
Ladies you deserve the best
Ladies you deserve everything
Ladies to avoid a broken heart, listen!!!
Ladies find a man that makes you their world
Ladies anything less is an invitation for
Your broken heart
———————————————————————
Men you are not beautiful
Men you deserve a woman
Men she deserves the best
Men she deserves everything
Men make her your world
Men anything less is an invitation for
Your broken heart
Men you would only have yourself to blame
Men give her respect and give her your
Unconditional love or just shut up because you don’t deserve her otherwise
Because you are lucky to have a woman
———————————————————————-
Gay find a partner that does the same
Treat each other with love or you don’t deserve each other.
———————————————————————
Seriously it takes two too make any relationship work but guys seriously you’re
Lucky if a woman loves you stop with the wondering eyes and thinking the grass is greener on the other side for if a woman loves you it’s better than any lust you will ever find
Give her 100% and there’s no broken hearts for either of you!!!

Land Of The Blind

   Like illusionist on the big stage
They use lights and things to distract
As they make all the rules and take all
The money and stab us in the back

People are losing jobs as they are
Sure to receive their check
They say that they care about us
But they really don’t give a heck

They tell the media what to report
And we hang on every word
This is hanging on the edge of insanity
This is really getting absurd

A free nation in where we live
But we must be inside by ten
Someone please tell me what I’m missing
The line is getting thin

We must wear mask and we cannot go
To Church or gather in a group
Next thing you know they’ll be
Telling where and when we can ****

The whole ironic part about it is
No one at the top needs to be a mastermind
Because we’re all just like sheep
And living in the land of the blind
