Marijuana in Newfoundland
I have fallen in love with the dress at my first sight of the dress. The chiffon fabric is very flowing and elegant. I love the dress! I would rate 100 scores for the dress and the customer service from MarieProm. I received the dress in a few days. The dress length is fine when I wear the shoes with heels. The most beautiful part I like is transparent collar of the dress. It makes the dress special. Thank you for your effort. I just bought the dress days ago for my wife! She is so excited to receive this gorgeous dress. It is said that the izidressbuy .com makes fabulous dresses with high quality fabrics,It fits me perfectly and it is everything thought it would be. And the shipment speed is amazing! Hoping to get it soon! Arrived quickly and fitted perfectly... size chart was very accurate and true. The custom service girl told me their production team has improved the fabric on this dress by choosing a kind of new lace fabric. Yes it really is! I love sooooo much the fabric and whole version of this little white dress!The dress was everything I imagined. The details of the dress were exactly like the picture. I ordered the dress in my normal size and it fits perfectly. The dress took approximately 2 weeks to arrive after I purchased it. The customer service team at izidressbuy was very helpful and worked really hard to have my dress arrive early for my formal event. This dress is beautiful, and very flattering. I love it! Unfortunately, I wanted to wear it to a wedding - the ceremony is at 1pm; the reception is at 5pm. It is perfect for the reception, but too dressy for the ceremony since I will be doing a reading and would be way more dressy than the bridal party. It's definitely evening wear. Beautiful though. Haven't decided if I'm keeping it or not. I can't use for the intended purpose, but I could definitely wear it for years and years to other events. Also, dancing in it could be problematic because it is quite long (just above ankles on me, and I am 5' 8-1/2") and it's straight, with no slit. You'd have to hold it up a bit to dance. But again... it's a gorgeous dress.Read more here:www.marieaustralia.com/short-formal-dresses | www.marieaustralia.com/formal-dresses-2015

Empty humans echo when tapped Ceramic heartbeats crunch through riverside air BETWEEN IGNORANCE AND WORTHLESSNESS TRAPPED Their senses vaporous, impaired. Those which melancholy cannot reach Across the Styx with curling hands DO NOT EXIST; THEIR WALLS WERE BREACHED With icy fingers, buzzing bland. Empty humans echo when tapped With icy fingers, buzzing bland FROM THE NIGHT BREEZE WHICH LAPPED Across the Styx with curling hands. Those which melancholy cannot reach, Their senses vaporous, impaired ARE A MIASMA ON THE BEACH Ceramic heartbeats crunch through riverside air. *Pottery people are all appearance And their hollows are touched rarely By their own sentience While waiting for the ferry--*

Those Who Wait for the Ferry; Or, Death's Pottery Shipment.
I am a physician.Last fall, I had a very interesting conversation with a patient who is a trucker. I asked her if she knew anything about deep underground military bases, and then I played ignorant to see what she would say. Without further prompting, she informed me she is an independent contractor trucker, driving 18-wheeler rigs cross-country. She said the bases are real and are located all over the country, "especially under the mountains out West". She said one of her main contracts over the last few years has been with DHS. She said there are underground roads running all over the United States, connecting the underground facilities. She said she has personally delivered many truckloads of supplies to the underground facilities. For each DHS shipment/delivery, there was a stack of non-disclosure forms about (by her description) six inches thick she had to sign. DHS would attach a tracking device to her truck for each of these shipments and monitor her truck's every move. She would be told where to go to accept delivery for each shipment. In each case, she would be escorted by guards "with machine guns" away from her truck, so she could not see what was being loaded into her rig. The truck would then be locked by a large lock with a ring 'as big around as your finger", which had to be torch-cut off at the time of delivery. When she would make deliveries, often within underground facilities, she would again be escorted away from the truck by armed guards, the lock would be cut off, and the goods would be unloaded. She said the only shipped goods she ever saw in these DHS shipments were stackable black plastic things that looked like coffins. She told be the gov't is getting ready for a collapse, which she told be she expected might happen as early as late 2014. She also told me she thinks the gov't has just about everything is needs stored underground, because the number of DHS shipments has been declining. I asked her if she would be willing to have lunch with me and tell me more. She replied, "yes", but afterwards when I contacted her, she had changed her mind and would not talk further about it with me. Another pt of mine, whom I saw within about a week of this lady, is a local trucker, but he told me that he has lots of friends who are truckers, and through them, he said he had learned that there are "thousands of miles of underground roads" running across the country, connecting underground gov't facilities. He had just recently, in fact, heard among his trucker friends of a shipment of frozen meat being shipped to one such underground facility, totaling four million pounds of meat.

Finkle Rat and Derby Cat Opened up a specialty shop Which was running rather smoothly Till kids teeth began to rot For what it was they sold were Candy apples, Sugar Cubes, and Lemon Drops With Fizzie Soda to make their quota On the loaner they had got You see the latest shipment of Fizzies Came from the loan shark Marco Mole To save themselves a buck or two Our naive friends both sold their souls And Marco doesn't care about Any kids or their rotten teeth Cause he also owns a piece of Charlie Cockroach The dentist down the street

i am beginning to see the ships-- like phantoms, they sail in&out; of the ports they choose, only to leave as they please [disappearing just as mysteriously & mischievously as they arrived], leaving dents in the worn docks they rail into. & i am as worn as one of these; just as covered in filth & weak to the sea winds & sinking in the high tides [& looking for places to hoist anchors away]-- visit me at sea someday, as more than one who stops at the pier to drop off another's shipment, but as one who desires to stay for holiday [a few weeks, a month, perhaps] before going off into the sunset alongside the wavering seagulls toward a Light at the edge of the ocean *for at harbor, there is always refuge.*

♪♫♫♪♫ running fluid, flowing like love, like life, like blood, like knowing the living waters from the  throne of God – it starts slow and it builds equatorial storms, tropical sadness as the guitars take you home in reverberations of eternity through endless repetitions of longing through palm-branched alleys and red-dirt gullies breeze caressing guavas and passion-fruit past dictators’ mansions past rusting shantytowns over ditches running with sewage into colors too intense to bear colors to make you cry: greens unseen in cold climates, red earth, flowering jacarandas women walking wrapped in rainbows huge baskets on their heads in the blare of traffic in the madness of African cities through the Congolese night that calls your name and the smell of poor people’s food over cook fires carried on the musical breeze children smile and beggars crawl in the dust of the street obscure wars are fought,  false peace proclaimed while the bones are exhumed as the Congo jazz rolls on, flows on like silver sorrow dancing gold in the heart of darkness past liter bottles of beer sweating cold on the bar table by the flower’s starkness lighting up the midday – when those horns come in on the boat from Cuba, by way of Bruxelles and Paris blaring triumphant and strong like a shipment of diamonds and uranium glittering in the drunken afternoon of a song with no end.

Commodity defined by Meriam-Webster (compare to humanity)
Little Susie was eager to go to the toy store. Her mother was buying her the newest doll “Charming Cherry”. She had to have one. All of her friends had one. She was already dressed in mixed match clothing. Proudly, shaking her mother, modeling her new look. However, mother was tired and scolded Little Susie for awakening her so early in the morning. Oh, Susie was so anxious as she went in and out of the house, irritating the neighbors with her frequent hellos and goodbyes. Finally, her mother was ready. Susie was to eager to eat breakfast. “Let's go mother, someone may buy them all up.” Hurry... As they arrived at the toy store, she nicely asked the clerk, “where are the Charming Cherry dolls?” She raced down aisle number five. Her mother so tired from working the graveyard shift could barely keep pace. Susie big brown eyes, looked fearlessly as a hunter stalking its prey. She looked and looked until her eagerness started to fade. “Where are they, she asked her mother?” Her mother went and got a stock boy to help look for the doll. It appeared to be sold out. Susie couldn't believe it. Now what was she going to show her best friend Barbie. Her emotions ran along side her flushed red face. She was very upset , to the point she went into a tantrum. Susie began knocking other dolls off the shelves. She reached high as her short legs could to do damage. Not much considering her fist was about as big as a golf ball. However, she hit hard enough to cause a seen in the store. She and her mother were politely asked to leave. When Susie got home, her mother threatened to punish her by not allowing any play time. Susie slammed the room door, kicking the walls, leaving shoe prints. Screaming, it's all your fault repeatedly.! All of a sudden , she took the Raggedy Ann doll and beat it until the seams started to loose. She beat the doll against her dresser, walls, even stomped on it. As the poor, innocent Raggedy Ann laid on the bed; the stuffing coming out from around her head. Susie, screamed one more time, “ it's all your fault!” When her mother entered the room, she found Susie in the corner just staring. “The manager said a new shipment of Charming Cherry will be in tomorrow.” “You see, never give up my Little Susie.” (I'm sorry Raggedy Ann)

I have fallen in love with my newest piece of kitchen equipment it came in the 9 am mail shipment with much zeal I opened the package and my eyes were so pleasantly surprised the metal shone like the sun beams in a summer sky the handles were so comfortable on the finger tips and there was plenty of room on them to securely grip it surely lived up to all my expectations considering I wasn't the person who paid for this wonderful thing a stew I shall make in it for my dinner tonight and as I ladle the stew from this piece of cookware I'll be thinking of the person who didn't receive this fabulous gift she'll be ever wondering what happened to her stainless steel *** which never made it to her mailbox

The circulation has been constricted, Painful memories indented, I'm just a mooring of ****** Carrying a shipment of resentment, My organic piston is done repenting, My aorta's done it's sifting, But now I'm down and out, I'm not worthy of remembering, The makeup is addicting, The flesh of my rose is lifting, And now I've lost my pedals, Down a river woefully drifting, There's a thong around my heart, Tightly squeezing, The juice of my love, Now I'm a loveless human being,

Thong Around My Heart
Do not fill the glass half full or tip it to make half empty. Cheaters don't make good workers, or so they say. live only so that tomorrow will come a little faster, never is more likely. Everyone all one string thats beginning to fray. So march on the dirt and stone, so march into the early morning fog. Trek slow and steady like the quest of a crone. Collapse like a another fractured cog. The clock stops ticking, the machines come to a halt. The new shipment arrives like butterflies to the net. Trapped forever wondering who's at fault. A day goes wrong that ends in a fret. So fly little birdie fly, or let the mustard meet nostrils and say goodbye.

Trapped souls
While working my routine at Amazon picking the same items I always have before I was trans shipped to trans ship filling me with anxiety understanding unfamiliarity nerve racked novice sweat trickles down my face soaking into my PPE. Two man crew I'm meant to join black guys wearing reflective vests "I'm here to help, can you help me?" blank stare foreground empty workload background perplexed aesthetic French accented walls muffle communication I form a reluctant alliance with repetition yet my counterpart understands everything I say. Their patience eases my troubled mind when my capability falls short of my enthusiasm hand gestures guide me free of frustration I stay silent, only saying "I'd talk more but I figure it'd be a hassle" my learning ambassador understands but his extra steps start a conversation creating comforting small-talk acclimating aliens. Sydna and Josue from Ivory Coast and Congo respectively and respectful was all I wanted to be yet I got the impression Josue was uncomfortable after I had brought up gold, diamonds, and oil but Sydna had taken control of the conversation telling me all about the lottery he won to be here I wondered what lottery's prize was living in Cincinnati to work a factory job in Hebron. We work bundling totes together printing confusing and mysterious tags reading ACY, CMH, SDF, JFK, or CSG these bundles will be leaving CVG eventually carried away on skids to their indifferent destination of the same capitalist company just at another fulfillment center. I guess I should be more grateful to be in the poor nation of transportation but I'm not—I'd rather be picking where I can communicate with compatriots freely but I'm far away from the south mod now near the north side red tag area talking to strangers it's just a shame because there's plenty of material where I came from but transitory shipment is where the work is.

The smaller ones." ~ ⚪♫⚪ ~ Michael chuckles, "You and my wife would get along well, Nyl. You're in luck! A new shipment came in from Puhan today!" Michael smiles. "They're on the upper levels." ~ ⚪♫⚪ ~ Her handmaids can tell she is smiling under her veil. With shining eyes, Nyl skips up the steps and admires the books. Esshi and Ainhara follow behind her. "Honey!" The three women turn to see a slender shadow of a woman from the far corner of the room. " I've taken the Puhan inventory. Just the Luciuscemi carvings to do! Oh." She turns head to face Lyn, Esshi and Ainhara. ~ ⚪♫⚪ ~ When she walks out of the shadows, she smiles. She was in a long beige dress, her hair in a low ponytail and simple brown shoes. "Hello!" "I was just talking about you, Bree." His wife raises a brow. "Oh really?" "He says that you too are a lover of Puhan's ink-sticks and notepads." Nyl beams.

Green Silk I told you That The sun blazes West The moon glows East Green Silk Was it wrong For me to lie about Things better left Unsaid? The celestial transcended mind Lacks the ability to differentiate between truth and hate lies and love Green Silk A humming bird came And stole my love,                           My heart,                                   My soul. Since when were you that kind of monster? Bellowing endless monster songs Since when? Green Silk I'd promised you A hundred, A thousand, A billions Things Pretty Things Lovely Things Hard Things Honest Things Dulcet Things Nitid Things But don't count on it I'm as late as the shipment from Taiwan The one from last year Now do me a favor. Cancel it. Green Silk I wasn't joking when I said "I hate you more than anything" To love is to suffer: I hate to suffer A woman travels down the wedding aisle I open my mouth To object            To say my peace And birds fly out ------- Nitid means color or bright

Sardonic savory armors against midnight shift, Scrapbooks made from scrawny writings, Wherein science is religion, Some are hit and miss!! Scowling, surely overcrowds happy intentions, Noone mentions the fetal positions overthrow!! Window peepers gaze between one another, Serpent sermons drumline strong to song's of shipment sufferance, Where thine utterance is grieved more than thou has ever felt!!! More than the fall membrane beneathe your feet you shall blow! Doth thou roll amongst forge stone? Amongst the shows that made thou the mime thou art today../ A smile upon your cloak, Yet thy finest of coats is in all disarray... Perforaters try harshly to subdue our mother like peons, Formulaic bringons, Or turn one to sickened ones alike!!!! Chasers of cognizant, bringers of fatality, For doth thou chooseth to have life?

The discoverers
This heart is fragile, bearing a sign 'Handle With Care', but it has been thrown around, hammered with wear and tear. Just when it's patched, and packaged for shipment, the box gets dropped, and the result is torment. The last delivery scheduled, not all that too long ago, the recipient assumed to be a man, with hopes of becoming beau. He left the box unopened, left the package out in the rain, nothing but a selfish boy, who created all this pain. What has he done to this girl, 'Handle With Care' is no longer readable, she longed for just one kiss, but thoughts of love are now inconceivable. His laugh promised happiness, but the pieces no longer fit together, her heart stranded out in the storm, unable to sustain the weather. With every call he rejects, she applies more stitching, hoping one day, one night, he will realize all that he is missing.

Good morning miss, how do you do? I have something very special today to offer you! Oh, wouldn't you like to know what it is? I know you're busy, ma'am-- it won't be but a bit Thank you, ma'am.

You'll find your worries quickly erased! ..Well yes ma'am, if you'll let me finish. Now see, its easy! All it takes is a tune a look, a whistle, even a fingertap'll do This magic machine listens to your needs! It's small, and light, and shatters quite easily. So you'll want to have it on hand. For safekeeping! It listens to you, like no man would do And ensures you are the best you can be! Once you pay the price, you won't need think twice-- Yes ma'am! all the knowledge you could want in the world, to a T! How does it do it? Well you really needn't ask It works through the mutual human task! Every man, woman, and child comes together to contribute It does not discriminate, you do not pay tribute No ma'am no, this machine seeks no gold Just you, is what it wants. It simply wants you. You'll take it? That's great! I'll get you in next shipment they're sourced from a faraway place, but it won't take but an instant! With boats and planes and automobiles, We'll get it to you We'll make sure of that, words true. We're excited for this! You won't believe what you've missed! And very quickly you'll find the world just doesn't do without constant supervision from the... eh.. thingermadoo. Now if you'll excuse me, miss-- you have a nice night.

With boats and planes and automobiles, We'll get it to you We'll make sure of that, words true. We're excited for this! You won't believe what you've missed! And very quickly you'll find the world just doesn't do without constant supervision from the... eh.. thingermadoo. Now if you'll excuse me, miss-- you have a nice night.

I miss my dentist. I miss the smell of disinfectant in his office, The sound of the water pick The taste of his latex gloves in my mouth. I miss the one-sided conversations about the philosophies of life. I miss hearing about how his wife and his kids are doing. The gossip about Roxanne’s new boyfriend or the new shipment of fluoride that just came in. I miss the sound of the secretary's keyboard as she types up the report stating that I am cavity free. I miss him telling me how healthy and beautiful my smile is. I miss him thoughtfully listening to my life complaints as he examines my x-rays. I miss his advice, the wise counsel he’d give regarding my schooling or love life and the way he’d wink when he says I’m good for another six months. But those six months couldn’t come fast enough. Jenny broke up with her ex for the 4th time, Paul quit his job before a drug test, Sherry dropped out of college, my roommate is pregnant, Dad bought a pet kangaroo, my apartment is infested with small beetel things, I’ve only eaten ramen for the past 3 days and Cason proposed to me. I don’t know how to handle it all. I miss my therapist. I mean my dentist.

An absurdity can ring joyous bell entirely on a beach type of existence if sometimes very beach combing in their yarn how exciting is folklore, when both will seed proper this bottle and their love with magnitude much greater than renegade there? If she'll morn for him again when a trapezoid is wondering for home in future of grapes chords their tricky companion of shipment in superior taste newly does arrive though accessory to wine craft in wax paper.

Wax Paper
I've made this drive 500 times Often distracted by the finished work day Or the overcast that's headed towards Beverly Road.  I'm trying to make it over the tracks again before the next cargo shipment passes through.  Two things are absolute  You will be there eagerly awaiting to plant a vodka-drenched peck on my lips And I will down a bottle of wine within the next two hours.  It never was about the yellow house Or the crying puppy in the back yard or the way the wood floors creaked when you woke up early and snuck out for your first cigarette.  Hurricane season came and went, still Beverly Road remained untainted  But the passion that pumped through me got carried away in all that rain and yellow was no longer my favorite color.  After all, you can't make a house a home alone.  If I had realized how badly the wind had beaten you down, maybe I'd still be sitting in the garage attempting to disguise our discontent I went back Once I was trying to sow myself together when I realized for the first time sorry isn't always enough And there are words I can't cram back into my mouth.  I admit I can turn into a tropical storm. I picture you peacefully falling asleep to my thunder I forget how badly I wanted to set the bedposts on fire with lightning strikes.

500 Times
SCAMMERS Sweet talkers, they are and will say anything to make you believe    them. Creating a false story and illusions that **** you in. Aiming for the most vulnerable who are alone or the elderly. Making you believe their story and caring for you. Many ask you for shipment help for their company, with money    upfront after they tell you a sob story and get to know you first.    then when you say no they become abusive and blame you, guilt    trip you and play on your kindness. Even though you want to think it is true, it is not! Rough as it is, or a while, this situation will pass, in time, if you can    get out of it/remove yourself from it. Sorry for us, that we are the ones chose, but know that you are not    alone, and they are the ones who are wrong, not you! You did not    deserve this. © BY HF-Whisper 16/03/2020

SCAMMERS
I Broke English I’m trying to get better at it, I swear I am. I’m trying to reach my full potential, But right now I have a fool’s potential. It’s the only abstract thing you can break Besides love. And that is— English. My parents have broken English. But did they have to pay for it? Is English a vase with a price tag? I thought that was called China for a reason? Was English a mishandled shipment With the label “fragile” on it? Is English a person whose feelings have been hurt? I thought that’s why there are therapists for him or her? Anyways, my mom once asked me, “How come read and read look the same? But read and red sound the same?” And my dad asked, “Why is it pronounced lie-in, Instead of lie-on?” I always hear the saying, “I put the emphasis on the wrong syllable,” But really, who here determines such things? I always hear the question “Can I use the bathroom?” Only to be hit back with “I don’t know, can you?” Well, guess what. May I tell you a secret? I don’t really care, I just need to use it. Heck, we need math to solve English. Do we derive the root from the word? And finally get an origin? This plays an integral part In our English. People use it around the world! Instead of hearing Bonjour! Or Hola! We get Hey! Hello! What’s up! Because French isn’t universal We don’t get to hear “Je ne parle pas en francais” And same for Spanish We don’t hear “Yo no hablo espanol” But instead, we hear around the world “I don’t speak very good English” I speak Broken English. Much like my broken brain I can’t piece it together How this dang jigsaw puzzle Works altogether. It’s difficult to speak in these words Without tripping up. Trust me it was hard to memorize, I swear, I was all caught up In the moment of knowing these letters. But I didn’t take into account The meaning of grammar— It’s a nail that’s hard to hammer The meaning of pronunciation— I don’t know, can you hear my enunciation The meaning of punctuation— Maybe I can put an exclamation? Or make it a question! I finally figured out what English is. It’s a law that I’ve broken several times But can get away with it Because I was born with the proper accent and the language.
