GREETINGS ALL!

Just letting you all know I'm still around!
I have some news about myself I thought I'd share.
As of a couple days ago, I have completed the first draft of my book entitled "Death By Mistress"!
I'm excited to have finally finished it, and am working on editing and rewriting.
Now, I just have to find a publisher worthy of my talent. (LOL)
Hope ya'll have a wonderful superbowl Sunday!

I SEE INSIDE (5-21-07)

Looking into the mirror,
What do you see?
A weak, vulnerable person,
with skeletons to examine,
A failure,
A fat slob,
A nincompoop.
The very thing your Father told you,
that you would be.
That's not what I see.
I see that strong, willful,
Striving person,
Using every thought they can,
Struggling,
To adapt,
To the Situation that they're in.
I see Inside,
To that person you used to be.
So perhaps you should try,
When you look into the mirror,
To see me,
Looking back,
At Thee.

Chapters (5-14-07)

Pushing through your chapters,
Contemplating that one,
Everyone has.
You know of it,
The horrid chapter you yourself have traversed.
Sadness,
Depression,
Self Loathing,
Failure,
Turmoil,
They’re all there in deed or thought.
People try to help,
With their unsolicited advice,
But the truth is,
Only you knew what you had been through.
Only you could do the work to pull out of it.
That ugly chapter would only end,
By ridding yourself of those negative traits,
Reminding id and ego of the better chapters,
Where the positives are.
If you can’t remind yourself,
Just how good life can be,
Then that bad chapter isn’t over.
It’s time to do the work,
Pull yourself out of it,
Begin the next chapter,
Live again.

What a Wonderful World

Here I sit in quiet contemplation of life’s great rewards.
A sunny day,
A rainy day.
The sound of children playing.
The twang of an acoustic guitar or the shrill melody of a violin.
Silence.
A day at the beach.
The noise of new falling snow.
A friends smile.
A Handshake.
A first kiss.
Having a child.
Making the 8 ball on the break.
Making a new friend.
Banana Cream Pie.
Experiencing something new.
Making love, not having sex.
Eating something that you've helped to create.
Cooking for someone you love.
Watching the sun set.
Watching the moon rise.
Looking into a lovers eyes.
A lover looking back at you with the same love.
Holding hands.
Grinding Pepper.
Talking to your best friend.
The list is endless.
As I sit here in quiet contemplation of all these things.
I think to myself, what a wonderful world.
Thanks Louis.

It Starts Today

This is the day,
Take life by the horns.
Spontaneity is NOW.
Go watch the Grunion run.
Laugh aloud.
It doesn’t matter who’s listening.
Eat what you want.
Feel good about yourself.
Jump on a trampoline.
Do something daring.
Ride a bull.
Then pick yourself up and do it again.
Jump out of a plane.
Scream all the way down.
Your mouth will dry out in 5 seconds or less guaranteed.
Wear a suit to lunch with a friend,
So they can see you in it before they die.
Go buy yourself something stupid.
Laugh at it when you see it on the shelf.
Watch some Shakespeare.
It’s amazing what you can learn from a play.
Listen to some Jazz.
Wonder if they can play it exactly like that again.
Suck on an ice cube.
Let your worries melt along with it.
Make yourself a goal.
Kick that soccer ball through it.
Cook something terrible.
Serve it to your friends and laugh along with them.
It’s those times that are the most memorable.
Share something everyday.
Smile when you’re sad.
Roll the window down and feel the wind on your face.
Take care of yourself and your family.
Listen to the rain.
Choose to wake up happy.
It starts today.
With you.

Waiting

Through the mists of Avalon,
I saw her.
Like an Angel,
Her whisper warmed my soul.
Her eyes pierced my heart,
And broke down the walls protecting it.
I knew she was the one,
For whom I'd been waiting.
A single kiss she bestowed upon me,
Delicate,
Sensual,
Just for me.
And then she was gone,
Like a leaf in the wind.
Leaving behind,
A man,
Waiting,
Again.

And Then There Were None

When the World blew up,
Four People Survived.
One died of Radiation,
And then there were Three.
One Died of Starvation,
And then there were Two.
One was murdered,
And then there was One.
The Last got Lonely,
And then there were none.
