Every Once in a while..an Idea visits you like a spirit,
I believe that spirit was meant to give you a message.
Sometime I document these messages....sometimes I forget,
To forget the message of the spirit is one of life's tragedies....

Its not so Bad

 

Got up this Morning

Had nothing to eat

Headed straight to the Doubles Man

First one I could meet

 

I said gimme 4 slight

Cause I didnt trust the pepper

Didnt know that what Id get

Was 2 days of Diarrhea

 

Diarrhea ..All day on the Toilet Bowl

Diarrhea .. so bad I was sweating cold

Diarrhea ... so bad I couldnt leave my home

Diarrhea ..  sitting on the bowl all alone

 

Now Ive been at it for hours

Not a moment Id like to savor

But it got pretty worse

Cause I ran out of toilet paper

 

Then I got a call from a girl I like

Said shes in front my gate

Didnt know Diarrhea

Would decide my fate

 

Diarrhea  .. God I had it so bad

Diarrhea ..  the worst that Ive ever had

Diarrhea  making my stomach gripe

Diarrhea  .. with nothing to wipe

 

So I tore out my pocket

And did the best I could

Went outside and met the girl

Said she was in the neighborhood

 

Then she came up at me quietly

I got the feeling of doom

Cause I knew I was busted

Cause she wanted to use the bathroom

 

Diarrhea making me insane

Diarrhea couldnt take the pain

Diarrhea Now I felt to die

Diarrhea so bad it made me cry

 

Then she entered the bathroom

I remembered my coat

I think I remember the pocket

Still in the toilet afloat

 

Then I heard a fearsome Growl

Like a demon from Hell

Seems that girl inside

Had some Doubles as well

 

Diarrhea Im no longer alone

Diarrhea No more reason to moan

Diarrhea Now I was having a ball

Diarrhea Its not so bad after all.

Web of Flies

Your Eyes speak of Truth

Yet your Heart is filled with Lies

Your Lips they taste of Fruit

But the poisons killin me inside

 

Wake me from this Dream

Cause I only feel the Pain

 

My Wounds they Bleed

Blood falls like the rain

But I will heal

And I will try again

 

This Web of Flies

Confuse my mind

I close my eyes

And try to find

What I thought I saw before

Maybe it died .. maybe its no more.

 

Spin.. everything is turning

Cant decide where to go

Leave the Web?

Cause it doesnt feed my hunger

The Flies are lies

And I dont know what is true.

 

This Web of Flies

Ill leave behind

Seek a new weaver

And build another

Web of Lies

Contentment of Heart
Once there was a boy
who was given a carving knife as a gift
Everyday henceforth he would carve little toys
and give it to the other kids to play with
 
As  a young man he kept carving
and made ornaments and furniture
He even built a porch entirely of wood
 
One day a large furniture company
moved into the neighborhood
and the young man gained employment
earning a very attractive salary
 
Before he knew it he was an old man
a old man who made table feet but not tables
Seats but no chair to sit and wipe the sweat off his brow
 
He left the factory yard and opened a small shop
clients barely trickled into his workplace
he barely made enough money to survive the next day
but he would sit in every chair he made and laugh
Lie in every Bed and look up at the sky and dream
For He was a Man ..and his heart content.

Just a Prayer

Somewhere Down the Line,

I lost myself, cant seem to find

The man I was, want to be,

A stranger in the mirrors all I see.

 

I cant see her hurt,

I dont want to see her cryin

When tears fall, they burn into my heart

The pain tears into my soul.

 

Teach me how to love,

Seems Ive forgotten what its all about

I cant show whats in my heart anymore,

These scars on my heart weigh me down.

 

Theres such an empty feeling,

When Im alone, even when Im not I am

All alone in this thing I try to call living,

Take this, my prayer tonight.

 

Keep her in your eyes,

Shes an angel in disguise

If she falls, lift her to the sky,

She forever changed my life

.

Life is like Karailee
Life is like karailee
Mostly bitter unless prepared right
Most people dont know the technique
So some say it taste awful without giving it a chance
 
I like Karailee when you stuff it with seasoning things
and fry it up after dipping it in this batter stuff
The Bitterness is all gone...and it taste really cool
and I eat all I can...and hide the rest in the fridge
 
So all you need to do is find the right seasoning things
Dip it in that weird batter stuff and fry the bastard
Then your life will taste so much better
If it still tastes like crap...change the recipe

Smile

Through the door I walk

Seems like I step into another world

A world where I see none but you

And blurry images of those around

 

I long to speak to you

But my lips feel numb

A tingling feeling overcomes me

My courage escapes me

 

Then I see you draw closer

My hearts pounding with anxiety

I approach you and words flow

"Would you like a drink or something?"

 

The brief silence feels like forever

Your soulful eyes look at me as if in surprise

"No thanks Im having water"

The sound of your voice soothes me like a cool breeze

 

Well can I buy you water? I ask

You smileits the smile of an angel

A smile Ive longed to see my entire life

The type of smile that fills you up inside

 

If all that we could have was that moment

That moment that filled me like no other

Then I am grateful that you have given me

A smile to last my entire lifetime

Love Plays Jazz

Have you ever met someone

Someone who just made you feel

Like no matter how hard you fall

They'll pick you up and dust you off

 

And youll feel like brand new again

Yet you dont understand why

Cause you hardly know this person

But you want to trust them with your heart

 

You keep asking in your mind

Where were you all my life?

Why did you just come along?

Are you what Ive always needed?

 

The answers always escape us

But you cant deny the chance

Sometimes decisions are unforgiving

Sometimes they teach like no teacher can

 

But can you really live with yourself

Knowing that you denied the blessing

The blessing of loving the one who is right for you

The paths of life doesnt always cross as the good stops

 

Maybe were both deep in shit

Sometimes you need a hand to pull you out

Sometimes all you need is to open your heart

Cause love plays jazz at times with really screwed up timing.

Bedtime Story 

Tell me a bedtime story

Tell me a fairy tale

Once Upon a Time you tell me

In a Land not far away

 

I wanna be the Hero

I wanna be the prince

Please will you be my Maiden

Trapped in the castle on the Hill

 

I will slay all dragons

Swim the widest moat for you

Break the walls of many dungeons

Wizards step aside as I come through

 

See the clouds clear the sky

As I climb the walls of your tower

Hear the peasants cheer me on

When I hold you in my arms

 

Our kiss will light the sky

And break the Wizards spell

Your smile will light my life

In the castle we will dwell

Crabs
Crabs are good
Crabs are bad
When they can be cooked it's good
If you catch it from someone it's bad
 
But....Cooked Crab can also be bad
that is if your're allergic or something
or the person just didnt make it right
 
So if someone wants to give you crabs
and it's not the kind that can be cooked
Say  Nooooooo!
Cause you might not like those crabs
 
Better Yet....Catch em yourself
cause it's fun catching GOOD Crabs
Unless they Bite...kinda like the BAD Crabs
Crabs can be very confusing...
Who gives a shit about crabs anyway..

All this my love

I want to lose myself in your arms

Awake to your smile,

Feel your heart beat against my breast,

And dream of you if my eyes are shut.

 

Smell your hair with my every breath

Taste your skin with every kiss,

Feel your touch against my cheek,

And rest on me when you are weak.

 

Press my nose against your nose,

Plant you a garden of Daisys and just one Rose

Caress your figure unto mine,

Be your shelter when it rains.

 

Bring you flowers when your sad,

Be your Punching Bag when youre mad,

Walk through gardens listening to 'Rage'

And fall into you if I fall off the stage

 

Hold your hand in the Maternity Ward

Be the first to show you your newborn

Cry with you if they fall

Go with you when PTA calls

 

Sleep with you when I'm Old

Help me remember the stories our kids will be told

Of things we did when we were young

And help me sing a 80's song

 

Go racing through the park

On our wheelchairs in the dark,

Look at movies through our really thick glasses

And our grandkids will help us wipe our asses..(Cause we are really old..you know)

 

All this my love I want with you

Just cause I never loved the way I love you!

Hopefully I will keep updating these "ideas" onto this site...maybe they will become songs, maybe they remain poems ..or maybe they will just remain a message given to me by the spirit of creativity.
