In the Moment

In the moment your life-cycle changes
Embrace a new future
Instead settled for the stale past
The answers you come up with
Are not the ones you are willing
To accept
Circumstances leave no room
For guess work
In the moment time can’t be taken back
For an instant clarity is a diamond
Sparkling in the sun
Examine it closer and see it’s
Filled with inclusions
Blemishes that aren’t seen with the
Naked eye become visible in the dark
In the moment what looked good in the mirror
Evil fore shadows behind soulless eyes
Lips speak deceit buried deeply in the heart
Lure you in and trap your spirit
Still it was in the moment
That has brought you to this place



Hell Hath No Fury


You haven’t seen anything until
A woman’s heart has been f*cked with
Lightening, hail, windstorm
Are nothing compared to the
Anger in a woman who’s been
F*cked over onetime too many
Earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes
Are destructive f*ck with a woman’s
Emotions and get dusted
Tornadoes violently destroy what ever
Comes into its path
A woman’s heart is no match
For the devastation
She possesses more power than
The combined anger of nature
Hell hath no fury of a woman’s heart
That’s been stepped on
Watch the sky a storm is on the horizon!!!

Eighteen


Ephemeral life
I still remember the color of your eyes
Gift of life tear drop for each year
How soon time becomes a memory
Tomorrow is another day
Envision the smile catch in the heart
Embrace a part of me in spirit will forever live
Never letting the reminiscence of you fade

In the Doghouse

You call him to come, and he acts as if he’s deaf

Or doesn’t understand the command

Give him the task of fetching your slippers

Bring you the morning newspaper

Simple things to do…

Suddenly he’s stuck with the mentality of being two

Pat him on the head for the good deeds he performs

Swat him on the ass when he goes and pees in a corner

Rub his nose in his wrong doings

Scold him tell him he has been a bad boy

Sometimes you want to throw your hands up in frustration

Send him off to obedient school

Maybe they will be able to teach him

What you’ve been trying to

Your orders don’t

Seem to register in his brain

When he’s happy he’ll lick your face

Rub up against you showing you his affection

Then run off and get with another bitch

Goes to show he has no discrimination in his soul

 He’ll hump anything that has four legs and a tail

Here you are back to square one

What to do when a dog doesn’t listen

Pack up his doggy bone

Change the locks on his doghouse

Go out and find a dog that will obey

Your every wish and not give a

Second, look at that other bitch

 

Tragedy


Disastrous end of a love affair
Calamity in the wake of the fallout
Catastrophe bemoan the wind
Misfortune to the hearts involved
Heartbreak came at an expensive price
Ruin reputations bought for a night of illicit passion
Adversity fashioned the road to redemption
Mishap or coincidence lover’s duplicity revealed
Rage of uncontrollable obsession led to an
Upheaval of reprisal sorting out the victims
Cataclysmic tempo builds to a crescendo
Damage to lives unfold
Shattered emotions lay bare
Chaos ensued sorting out the fallen reflections
Bedlam erupted two souls entangled with each other
Pandemonium couldn’t be stilled
Anarchy warped the minds of survivors
As they question why didn’t any one see
The tragedy before it happened

Nomad

He was drifting floating along with life
Wherever it took him, he’d end up there
There was no anchor to weigh him down
Roots that needed watering
He went with the direction of the wind
Changing course at a moment’s notice
Nomad to wander this earth
Liberated spirit
To live amongst the birds that flew free
Stop analyzing what his existence meant
Spread his wings he soared
 Joining his heart to mother earth
 Liberally roamed, drifted along with life
Wherever it took him, he’d end up there
Finding peace…
