I think about him often and on Father's Day, I dwell... upon the things he gave to me and taught me oh, so well. I go back to those early years when on my father's knee... he'd give to me a special hug and then he'd say to me: *"...life is what you make. Don't look for special breaks. Keep your chin up when the world seems doomed, for goodness sakes. Always keep love in your heart. on that you'll always count. And when you do...well.. there's no obstacle you can't surmount. You can be, all that you want for you have that kind of power. You're not as fragile, as it seems though, I see you as a flower. Do not be afraid to love freely, with all your heart I will protect you always but you must also... those times when we're apart That day will come along when my body falls apart. And then, I must be moving on but I'll remain forever... within your heart!"* He left me in 2013 to go and be with God. I knew he would someday of course… yet still, I find it odd... that I can still recall his voice from all those years ago. And I'd just like to say that... I listened, and I love him so!

I Still Recall His Voice
We thought we had the vampires done, Cornered as we raised the stakes. The fiends were caught against the font, An end to this for all our sakes. How foolish to believe That the stake would push itself, How blinded must we be To think we'd help ourselves. We fell back in confusion As their eyes lit stars of blue, Our fiery brand burned red in fear But the flames sputtered out on cue. We faced the devils in their line But they withstood our empty threats, And took us off one by one; It was time to pay our debts. They laughed at our misfortune. And gave us back our forks, They pointed at our dampened brand And sent us back to work. They drank from tattooed necks And supped from elder veins, And bled the middle dry And fed upon their brains. They tore up all our rights And placed death upon a throne, Who drove out justice in the night While Liber's throat did moan. They sold us all as slaves To merchants draped in skin, Cut from children's backs As the devils slowed their spin. So now we work until we drop, Exhausted in our penury. We're fed from blood banks on each street While we think that we're still free. The vampires grin within their church And play at pious once a while, And watch with glee as all they cut Divides us up in our denial.

life is a marathon it isn't easy it isn't graceful it isn't pretty times will come which are so dark even the sunniest of days feels cold evil men sow their sins from the shadows and it stops you in your tracks like hitting a runner's wall breathless stinging lungs scream out against the lack of oxygen like silent voices mourning a waking nightmare but even from under the umbra we might find something worth redeeming a helping hand offering us some much needed hydration or friendly words of encouragement from strangers life is a marathon and we can't allow the runner's wall to stop us from moving forward for the sakes of our brothers and sisters who didn't get their fair chance to cross the finish line

Carla kept nudging me to learn Italian. It is the language of lovers and liars she said, life’s two best friends, Discipline yourself, it will teach you to sing, she offered, Each phrase a lyric, a seduction, It will give you an unfair advantage over younger men, she promised, Tickle her ear with this tongue and she will shiver and unfold, Her heart, her knees unlocked. Italian is a calculate of rhythm, Carla suggested, Every woman understands timing and phase, Our life is nothing but cycles for god’s sakes, How have you not understood this? It is the lingua of fair play, she continued, each syllable an equal citizen, A dialect with an innate sense of justice, Women are as intrigued by its possibilities, As they are by threat and danger, Either of which you can no longer promise. Tell a woman you love her in Italian, Ti amo più respiro, I love you more than breath, And her ******* will disappear, She won’t be able to take her eyes off your lips, And as we all know, your mouth is your hook, Your irresistible smile, the pout, the persuasion. You are a poet, a miracle I know, Your words are narcotic when you put your mind to it, I’ve heard you quell an unruly crowd; Your resonant tone could soothe a pack of ravenous jackals. But with that intricate face of yours, Your accumulating age, the leather wrinkles, Believe me, you will soon need to help to ****** even a photograph. Enlist, become Italian, Carla told me, it is your only hope, And she tossed the last of her wine onto the sand, Watched the red stain saturate and fade, And lay back to face the sun.

IMAGINE, BY JOHN LENNON.
Hey, I already told you that you were a little bit crazy. What did you think—that I was completely nuts? Come on, Cashew, and shake that walnut-sized brain of yours, and then we’ll try to put together a decent menu. Still, I ought to kick you in those itty-bitty sunflower seeds, those ones that you claim to be your source of protein. Hey, Macadamia Breath, accidentally lose the ******* hula dancer and then fire the impending search-and-rescue party! Your tropical trail mix was no good for each other. You need a vacation from this deserted island, Captain Crunch. Go down south and get yourself the businessman’s special. You know—some old-fashioned brazil nuts. Yeah, that’s the two-tickets-to-paradise, for sure. Fool, you really do need to buff up the old almond. Do I need to open up the **** aluminum lid for you? You’ve been stuck inside this assorted, mixed can that you try to refer to as an extra bedroom for nearly nine months. Get out and take in a little hike and bike right after you do the wake and bake. Maybe you should go slow roast yourself at the beach a little. Why don’t you go to the mountains and try to become one of those pine nuts that end up in all of those overpriced health cereals? Hey, Snickers, those dank trees really are beautiful, you know. Would you quit acting like a frikkin’ flax seed already? Just admit that it’s almost payday, for criminy sakes! You pathetic Mister Peanut, you. Please, Saint Chestnut, give this completely lost consumer strength from high above store aisle number nine. Number nine. Number nine. Number nine. Listen to me, Nutt Sack, will you shake those tiny little beer nuts that no one can seem to stomach anyway? First of all, they are becoming way too stale just sitting around here, so if you continue to wait any longer, they will petrify—and then we will eventually be forced to call you teeth-breaking Corn Nuts!

Rendered offenses Sweat in the opinion, sakes And due attention, to reason amends Acting only a little saner, the stark stare a host makes... Do you notice, evermore? Anyway, the truth we prepose of... Has a callous beginning, too sore For a challenge of wisdom, that even does? Prayers of dour anger... For the aspire and means we favor With a realm to a touch, tough knowing you and life's danger... The reality of another fight, with sin as the futures flavor? Speed has a question, dwindling in the wind Suspect days, to redoubt and list the scope of an argument That has the silence we afforded it, to keep the shadows of kin Proper is as proper had, the hush of simple tomorrows, a problem to relent... Toward sharing, the taste of a hoping kiss...? That when recognized, sympathy is an answer; only a heed can tell... The prayer of estrangement, has become a chastity's wish Will a savior in love, know the better of kindness; here's your hell... With a baring lip, that has suggested a toothsome reply to quips And hearts to accept the solace of terror, a harrowing finish to past lies...? That began and ended with a promise found in the bolting and gray wits Of a dread simplicity, still running to wisdom's charity, which requited...

Make-Up On A Nice David (rescued horses)
Contents of the lockers lay in a pile A flask, a Marlboro box, a thousand textbooks, pills in an orange see-through bottle One item, unique to the others, is a notebook Full of confessions and Sexton and Plath Sad yearnings and accounts of complete moments This notebook Surrounded by the cigarettes and concealed ***** and mathematical equations Shows the other world within this world That spins in time with this world But gives and takes for lovelier sakes -cj

You know what, this is not a love story this time. In this case, it never was. I thought it was, but I was mistaken and lied to by my lonely heart. And For once, I am standing my ground and telling you what you deserve to hear. **** you. **** you for making me so dependent on you that I was scared to stand up to you, even though you were cruel to everyone I loved. You may have thought you were cute, you may have thought it was your odd way of love, but it was honestly just an excuse to be an utter ***** to everyone and none of us should have tolerated it. **** you for competing with me. I am not a competitive person, but you'd laugh and comment how you were better, smarter, more mature. It drove me wild. Not only because your arrogance made me want to drive you into the ground, but also because it made me feel like I had to prove myself to you, brag in front of you, compete with you to feel worthy. **** you for turning on me at my weakest. Over a boy for god's sakes. I was your best friend, the one you turned to and confided in, and you started to completely disregard me over a boy I had feelings for first. You had no respect for our friendship in any facet, and it made me regret letting you in at all. **** you for always being at the back of my mind, for being so infuriatingly insidious that I have to always check up on you and worry about you even though you don't deserve it. For doing things that don't make me feel anything but pity and concern for your life, instead of being proud and maybe thinking I could accept you. **** you for making me want to **** myself. For being the selfish catalyst who showed me the cuts on her legs and made me feel so guilty that I didn't deserve life. Everyone deserves life, even the cruelest of people, and to purposefully make me feel that worthless, just to try to win me back, was the most heartless, selfish, thoughtless thing you could have ever done. **** you for being similar to me in any frivolous way, because now I am utterly terrified to be anything like you. Obsessive, rude, cruel, thoughtless, and selfish. I fear for my boyfriend, my friends, everyone around me because I know being your friend has given me the capacity to be just as ruthless as you. And I hate you for it. **** you for making me forget anything pleasurable about our relationship. All I can feel is a burning frustration when I hear your name, or an overwhelming sadness, or endless anger. None of it is pleasant. **** you for everything you've done to me, and **** the dark part of my heart that exists now because of your knives stabbing me in the back. **** you for still making me think about you, and **** you for any part of me that is like you. I'm done with you. This is the end. Its ******* over. And just remember. **** you.

Like Falcons, Kestrels and Hawks They swoop low to look and stalk Holding breath for silence sakes Looking for gullible easy prey Talons around the throats of the genteel and shy Uncaring of flowing tears, they make them cry Recalling a sunny day so bright When clawed and swooped in delight Not knowing the heart that would break That day, piercing ties did penetrate Learning others spirits would wound As the Falcon made his way around the night for doom As his blackness did loom All were hurt, tears were shed Face after face he did skim Heart rending cries that were abhor For them no tears no more Never spoken to again, they might the evil kin do they despise Torment and cruelty they do throw' Gnashing one's teeth thinking about ado, Bruises of blue they carry, bleeding of heart A cold sweat trickling down the spine, apart. Take away the face oh please leave life alone, let all be in peace Pain and heartache that created, O' bemoan Saying and caring, oh no just want to be left alone ... For the uninitiated, lonely hearts Lending tears of sorrow, leaving soul debased Romance here, a wild goose chase Holds so many as the Falcons swoop again ... Debbie Brooks 2014

Blazed is the trail made by their mistakes   The high road created for all our sakes   Explorers of lands that were once uncharted   Now the cartographers of the paths they started   We are the proverbial parchment upon which they sketch   Vicariously imbuing their wisdom within each etch   The end of their journey is where we begin   For the trail ahead must be blazed again

whenever i paint my nails i cannot help but be reminded of the way you smoked cigarettes because the fumes of the nail polish are terribly toxic and yet i crave it because some nights we would stay up all night-- you getting high on your cigarette daydreams and me getting high on how happy you looked with a death stick in your mouth, i should've stopped you i should've been there next to you, at the very least in the back of your mind a warning, you should've thought of me, you should've cared, you should be right here next to me, laughing because i got nail polish on my hand and teasing me about how i should just give up you should not have been driving home that night, you should've known, you should've stopped-- months before that, you shouldn't have even began drinking or smoking or even driving for god's sakes you were only fifteen and so was i, i was only fifteen, much too young to fall in love, and much too stubborn to care whenever i paint my nails i cannot help but be reminded of you inhaling smoke from your marlboro silver cigarettes and i cannot help but make a mistake and stop midway and scrub it all off because you are no longer there to tease me about how i should just give up and i can no longer get high from the image of the boy sitting on my window sill, for he is now dead (h.l.)

Pennarby shaft is dark and steep, Eight foot wide, eight hundred deep. Stout the bucket and tough the cord, Strong as the arm of Winchman Ford. 'Never look down! Stick to the line!' That was the saying at Pennarby mine. A stranger came to Pennarby shaft. Lord, to see how the miners laughed! White in the collar and stiff in the hat, With his patent boots and his silk cravat, Picking his way, Dainty and fine, Stepping on tiptoe to Pennarby mine. Touring from London, so he said. Was it copper they dug for? or gold? or lead? Where did they find it? How did it come? If he tried with a shovel might he get some? Stooping so much Was bad for the spine; And wasn't it warmish in Pennarby mine? 'Twas like two worlds that met that day-- The world of work and the world of play; And the grimy lads from the reeking shaft Nudged each other and grinned and chaffed. 'Got 'em all out!' 'A cousin of mine!' So ran the banter at Pennarby mine. And Carnbrae Bob, the Pennarby wit, Told him the facts about the pit: How they bored the shaft till the brimstone smell Warned them off from tapping -- well, He wouldn't say what, But they took it as sign To dig no deeper in Pennarby mine. Then leaning over and peering in, He was pointing out what he said was tin In the ten-foot lode -- a crash! a jar! A grasping hand and a splintered bar. Gone in his strength, With the lips that laughed-- Oh, the pale faces round Pennarby shaft! Far down on a narrow ledge, They saw him cling to the crumbling edge. 'Wait for the bucket! Hi, man! Stay! That rope ain't safe! It's worn away! He's taking his chance, Slack out the line! Sweet Lord be with him! 'cried Pennarby mine. 'He's got him! He has him! Pull with a will! Thank God! He's over and breathing still. And he -- Lord's sakes now! What's that? Well! Blowed if it ain't our London swell. Your heart is right If your coat is fine: Give us your hand! 'cried Pennarby mine.

When I think about you my lungs forget how to work. I miss you so bad I can't breathe or stop the hurt. I think of you as the rock I skipped across the pond. It skipped thirteen times before it sunk. You lived thirteen years before you had enough. I think that you were brave but also so naive to think that nobody would miss you. I think about you every day until my chest caves in. Sometimes I look around at the world and start getting dizzy because I know you're not here anymore. I feel like I'm going to pass out when I think about you being a skeleton in a dress somewhere underground. For your sake I hope heaven exists. For my sake I hope hell doesn't.

Dear Universe GD! Please!!
Don't be afraid of love Listen to your dreams Breathe in your happiness Don't add regret to your memories But learn from them if you do Don't run from lust Love yourself Sink into someone's arms Don't be scared of the feeling of never wanting to let go Open your window when it's warm outside Go for walks by yourself Enjoy the bare skies Love yourself Take baths Paint something even if no one will ever see it Write your heart down in a journal Listen to a body of water in the middle of the night Date the jerks Then break their hearts when you realize you deserve better Remember that you deserve better And for god sakes just love yourself By Chloe Elizabeth

Reminders For A Teenage Girl
Past and future daydreams the delusions of a present tense. Unspeakable longing fills every fissure and pressure demands the yielding of limits.          (a dark torrent bursts forth)       *the shores will recede       until the island is       swallowed up by the sea* No survivors remain when the tide, stemmed for sakes external, recapitulates the beachhead. A great ache fills the land with anguish, beckons all beginnings to unite with the end       *{the memory will fade       to total silence       beneath the roar of the waves}* Where wilderness waits to interpose the tamed.

Wear a Rubber!
i think there is a glitch in my mind, perhaps it's a common glitch in other humans minds too but this glitch somehow seems to erase every lesson I've ever learned about how to let go of someone i should have let go of a long time ago, the one that teaches you how to drop all attachments and expectations how to be content in living without always needing. i learn this lesson repeatedly, i love you, i'm there for you, i get hurt by you because you do not respect or value me at all because you are selfish and do not know the power of your words and actions or lack thereof. so i let go of you and feel weightless and free not needing to make sure you still love me. but then time passes and somewhere in this timeframe, a few days, sometimes weeks give or take my brain resets itself, perhaps sometime in the middle of a nightmare and it's like waking up with a head full of glue that's when i start to miss you and miss you and miss you and want you and need you and silently cry at random times like at work or on the bus and i get so weak and needy and i seem to come to the conclusion that i cannot stand on my own two feet if you aren't there to hold me up and it's all a lie, but it's a repetition and it doesn't seem to get old and it's frustrating because i cave in every time, i go running back to you until you hurt me again and then the lesson is re-learned only to be forgotten again, repeat. all my life you have had such power over me, and it isn't fair, it is no way to live it's suffering in its purest form and i end up punishing myself for it note to self: you are not the air i breathe, even if you gave me life even if i gave you stretch marks. what is wrong with me? why can't i just learn from getting hurt and not repeat the same mistake? why can't i just live without you for goodness sakes? i want to be strong, i want to wake up and not always be craving something, someone i want to look in the mirror and not cringe at what i see i want to look at the sky and not have to wonder if you still love me i want to rise from the ash and not be ashamed of how other people might despise me for it. i want to live without the need for constant validation. i want to love myself, i want to be whole again.

I wanna fight with you, I wanna argue and say horrible mean things to you, I wanna hurt you, Disregard your existence Make you go insane, Point out all your flaws in the name of love, And then throw glass at you, Raise our voices in extreme fury, Fight me, Break me, Burn me, Make me know that you want me, For God sakes if I don't know I'm leaving, I'll quit, I'll run out the door into another's arms if you don't make me feel like I matter, **** you, Go! Get out of here, And grop that girl you met last night, I don't need you, Even though I love you, Even though I can rip open my chest and expose that which I've kept hidden for year, Yeah the scar tissue shows, Not pretty, I know, I can't do that with Dan, or Connor, or Brandon or Matt, If they saw the ugliness underneath I never would hear from them again, But with you, With your patience and understanding I cannot feel anymore at home, Isn't that the feeling ones suppose to feel, Real? I feel like I can be absolutely real, Like the DNA can unravel and unwind, I don't have to hid anymore, Not with you, or around you, I can be me! I'm just a bit afraid that you're the only one I can find, The only one that I can ever be with, The only one who would make me feel completely and utterly whole… Make sense?

I can be me around you
Dear mind Please remember you are not meant to be perfect, there are cracks in you like an antique porcelain glass, you are still useful and beautiful but sometimes things leak Dear mind You are a soldier You have dealt with so much in the past it's a wonder you aren't shell shocked. Trauma is the worse, the world around you is so full of pain you can't imagine confiding your hurt with anyone but yourself and for this you suffer Dear heart You will survive, you have been shattered like a clay pigeon, blasted away by the shotgun shell of betrayal. You have been broken so many times it seems easier to find a formula for time travel to reverse the damage then to piece you back together, but here you are beating in my chest with so many scars you look like a road map of Manhattan Dear soul Speak up there are times when my mind is lost and my hearts playing hooky, If my mind could hear you it would find true north and my heart would start its engine. Pressing forward to what we all want Dear voice Be kind, sometimes in life this is impossible but in those times promise to always be honest, Dear voice Hold steady, my mind may be hectic and my heart may be racing but it is you who must stay the course. For all our sakes. Dear feet Move forward, what is behind us is to teach us how to navigate what is in front of us. Be firm in your footing and bold in your stride this greatness you seek was never intended for the timid Dear shadow I promise if you continue to follow me someday it will be worth it. -Vaun Niklaus Christiansen.
