Roses were red.
My life was blue,
Until that one day
When I met you.
You brought me happiness.
You brought me love
like a guardian angel in disguise
that came down from above.
You captured my heart,
and enslaved my soul.
With your ever-loving presence,
Am I serving a kind of punishment,
or might I be part of a concealed plot?
Could it be that I’m part of something good?
Perhaps this life is that which no one thought.
As I look back at all that I have done
it looks as though my actions lack in worth.
Glancing my life, reflections in the mirror
Waving the smoke to make it all clear
I'm driving a car I cannot steer
Wasting my life, my one biggest fear
Simple minded folk; they gape and they leer
Power minded folk; corrupt while they jeer
I've worked and worked for many a year
Though I’ve loved large and small,
I never had to persevere at all.
Why do I always go for the one,
Whom stares me in the eyes,
And shows me all of my lies.
please oh please don’t feel sorry for me
just because my love happens to be poison ivy
she makes me itch she makes me scratch
but I’ll always be ready to jump in the next batch
she makes me rub until I am sore
but with out her my happiness fades more and more
every few weeks she clears from my body
The world I know
Is in an unstable condition,
We’ve come a long way,
And showed so much ambition.
But we always forgot that
There is still a job called;
A Mortician.
My chest may be leather bound.
I’ve seen a lot of jazz,
And also, been around.
Our legs were unfortunately bound,
And my strength,
Just might need another Round…
Of Cold Adult Beverages.
It hurts,
Being thrown up against the hardest brick wall,
Warm Blood being spit out of the mouth,
Yelling “Stop”, gasping for more word,
Of your voice..
Slammed onto the cold ground,
A right connects to your head,
Seeing stars, Seeing Blackness, then
Seeing the one who was called out
By his friends.
I’ve been blessed,
Not only by God,
But by the ones who gave me
This wisdom I hold,
No matter what the cost.
I’ve been blessed,
By fine wine,
Be-fruited at the perfect time.
Cork spoke with the voice of
God.
“Drink thy wine and all will see
Why thee had been blessed”.
The girl that can look me in the eyes,
and show no fear, no lies,
The girl to whom I adore,
and no one more,
The one who's reflection is shown,
when I'm not at home,
The feeling when I awake,
knowing it's not a mistake,
Shall one day take an endless sail with me.
Every day I spent with you,
Every night I slept with you,
Every morning I awoke next to you,
Every precious moment we lived together..
Made me the man, to whom you desired.
Many nights I wish you were near,
to cleanse my body, my soul, my fear.
Only God can decide, what's to become,
of this joyful relationship we've sought and we've won.
I sit and I stare at the stars overhead,
knowingly thinking, they are the same that are shed,
in your land, in your sky,
far, far away and this is why.
Do I want it?
That feeling of euphoria,
Firing off inside my brain
Like a the Fourth of July…
Why do I want it?
Flu like symptoms
Have subside.
I‘m thinking correct,
Not where’s my next line.
No more lazy nights,
No more hazy days,
Upon which I don’t remember.
I am the lonely soldier
hidden under a dock,
in muddy waters,
I am awaiting my discovery,
where the enemy will conquer me,
The smell of gastric fumes
arouse my senses,
turning my stomach into a free falling waterfall
of sickness.
My heavy head rises up to see,
If i have been discovered...

DesertRat: Lance Morrow wrote an article for Time in 1995 on which he talks about sexual abstinence for teenagers. Somewhere in there he mentions 'the swamp of the id.' That word ("id") stuck with me for a while, it is a Freudian term. I would like to see someone use it somewhere. Another couple words I'd love to read in fresh work are 'ennui' (Constance Woolson in "Miss Grief") and 'debutante' (seen in a movie). DR1 day 3 hours ago

Routh: Ok, I have tracked down a bug with the Drupal and the password reset system. If you're logged in to the site when you request a password reset, it will ask for your current password when resetting. In order to fix this, use the link to get your temporary login, then logout with 'My Menu' > 'Log out' - Once you do that request a password reset again and it will not ask for your current password. The Drupal developers have been made aware of this issue and are working to resolve it.3 days 6 hours ago
