It’s been a while I forget how beginnings go I’m so eager to start running that I forget to tie my shoe laces Maybe that’s why I’ve never won a race I couldn’t remember how to start and I didn’t bother taking the time to learn again So once I skipped right to the middle, throwing in all the ingredients, trying to bake something without even bothering to look at the measurements Too much contact, not enough connection The ending came too quick And i was left with a mess i’m still trying to clean up I’ve found myself facing never ending beginnings Where you’re left hanging onto anything because it’s just about to happen, like the tempt of a sneeze But all you get is teary eyes and wasted tissues I’m a collector of stories And I’ve only ever found pieces and rough drafts I’m not sure how beginnings go, or how the threads would unravel into a book Because all i have is my patch work quilt of Once Up A Times and Middle Chapters Maybe You’ve had a beginning, middle, and end before But by the time you’ve reached the end and found yourself facing another beginning You might forget how they go too Maybe it’s been a while So let’s paint a picture There doesn’t have to be any rules or guidlines We’ll paint ourselves a sunrise A perfect beginning Because as it comes up, even the Sun isn’t sure of what it’s about to face And we can paint ourselves a river With whirlpools and rocky edges Stretching far and long Because our middle will have power to split mountain ranges and the strength to make it through the roughest terrains Let’s curl up under blankets with flashlights Cause the world is a dark place and I’d much rather stay here and make forts out of sheets, where the only demons we’ll find are shadows cast from out flashlights I’ll whisper you lullabies, just promise to keep holding me tight Babe with you here, my universe doesn’t need to be anything bigger than this mattress I’m a collector of stories But i’m not quite sure how to write one So let’s stay here and not think about endings I’m not sure how they go And i’m hoping i won’t have to know for a while

Shoe Laces and Flashlights
It’s been a while I forget how beginnings go I’m so eager to start running that I forget to tie my shoe laces Maybe that’s why I’ve never won a race I couldn’t remember how to start and I didn’t bother taking the time to learn again So once I skipped right to the middle, throwing in all the ingredients, trying to bake something without even bothering to look at the measurements Too much contact, not enough connection The ending came too quick And i was left with a mess i’m still trying to clean up I’ve found myself facing never ending beginnings Where you’re left hanging onto anything because it’s just about to happen, like the tempt of a sneeze But all you get is teary eyes and wasted tissues I’m a collector of stories And I’ve only ever found pieces and rough drafts I’m not sure how beginnings go, or how the threads would unravel into a book Because all i have is my patch work quilt of Once Up A Times and Middle Chapters Maybe You’ve had a beginning, middle, and end before But by the time you’ve reached the end and found yourself facing another beginning You might forget how they go too Maybe it’s been a while So let’s paint a picture There doesn’t have to be any rules or guidlines We’ll paint ourselves a sunrise A perfect beginning Because as it comes up, even the Sun isn’t sure of what it’s about to face And we can paint ourselves a river With whirlpools and rocky edges Stretching far and long Because our middle will have power to split mountain ranges and the strength to make it through the roughest terrains Let’s curl up under blankets with flashlights Cause the world is a dark place and I’d much rather stay here and make forts out of sheets, where the only demons we’ll find are shadows cast from out flashlights I’ll whisper you lullabies, just promise to keep holding me tight Babe with you here, my universe doesn’t need to be anything bigger than this mattress I’m a collector of stories But i’m not quite sure how to write one So let’s stay here and not think about endings I’m not sure how they go And i’m hoping i won’t have to know for a while

**I said I wasn't going to do this today but again for the third time you asked for it.** Ranger Rick you thought that if you used your Woody account I wouldn't know that it was you. You thought wrong. Yea I **Blocked Marcus Darcy or should I say Deena/Vicki..? Angelina Lopez or should I say Brandon Nagley, Tommy Jackson, Tiberius Paulk...? Frank Rizzo or should I say Gary L..? James or should I say r,woody, tophat, Wilf Sporrat..? >Wilf Sporrat is a complete wannabe Wolf Spirit< Jake Muler, Bill Murray and ten others are also fake** .................... **The things that you are inboxing Wolf's followers, aren't true. So Stop. You guys are stalking him and his followers** Thanks Woody for the Community Guidlines reminder, maybe you should read the guidlines too or Shut up! and stay off my page. Its actually very funny how you blocked me but you still go on my page and leave comments...? Huh maybe we all should take a moment to ponder on that. ----> FYI <---- I was not put up to this by Wolf Spirit or anyone else....and I got my information from many different reliable sources.....

Hello Poetry Community Guidlines
Watch us roll down a quiet ocean road The night was only punctuated by looking at the moon It was upside an upside down crescent Waxing in the black You were right beside me Wrapped around my arm like a spider clutching to her eggs Your kiss beneath my ear Brought me the peace of an oak tree You put up guidlines As you lie naked in the light of a red Astro Lamp I remeber Your red neon eyes pulling at my pants At the skin of my neck You brought blood to boil in my head I watched how sixteen billion nerve endings Collided inside your universe The song of a thousand red blood vessels Played in our ears Your blacklight mentality kept me stumped Up all day and night You thought it was cool to ride the motorcycle next to the ocean I could hear your words wisp around my ears As we rode Your arms clinging warm against my t-shirt Pressing your lips against my neck And returning your gaze to the ominous ocean Spread out in the beautiful night Rocks rise up Twenty feet beneath us In the mouth of the ocean These rocks they call the demon's teeth The sea gaping its maw And laughing at us as we speed by Your candy-cane eyes Wrapped your arms tighter than everything Thunderstorms Blundered to the east You yelled out to me between the black void "On nights like tonight You always  make me feel like An actress"

unfortunate haiku
Shine in your mood let it become your shrine. The crows hop across the tops of the pines. They look for there master of design. He two was much full of devine. There where too be pristine guidelines.
