Tomorrow no more Bush... ~taken out of context that could sound bad~

History embraced me on those streets.

Most of the buildings on Main Street have changed

like a teenage girl buying a dress for the prom-

like the A&W restaurant which became Daddy’s Diner.

Though there are some buildings that haven’t changed,

restaurants that have remained-

The Frosty, the Knotbumper, the Timber House Saloon.

Even in the school ( Read more... )

I’m searching for my Lois,

even if she only exists in a dream.

And when I find her

I’ll find my Kryptonite

I know I’ll do foolish things.

I’ll battle my Bizarros and my Brainiacs.

My Bizarros existing in dark areas

of my spirit- a part of me and apart from me,

a sign tied around its neck “Bizarro #1”

backwards talk and a warped mind-

a creature of impulse ( Read more... )

Back then I lived next to a lagoon,

high in Sierra mountains,

a place with blue waters

capping white in the wind-

I would go out onto this plain with my dad

on his small sailboat, I thought a ship.

Back then I lived in the wilderness,

the Hundred Acre Wood,

where giants breathed around me;

brown arms stretched out ,

fuzzy green hair upon rough skins,

fine ( Read more... )

My Grandma Nancy passed away this morning. I got to see her one last time yesterday though when I went to visit her with my dad. He came into Lowe's yesterday, and when he told me I decided that I needed to leave work to go with him. I think I needed to say that final good bye, but before I left work he kept telling me that I didn't need to go... ( Read more... )

Breathe Breath into their Being

I never wanted to grow up,

I wanted to fly away to Never-Never Land.

Swim with the sirens in the green sea

and battle pirates.

But the tick-tock-tick-tock of the crocodile’s clock

doesn’t just prey upon Captain Hook.

I never wanted to stop believing,

I wanted to ride upon the Polar Express.

Journey to the North Pole

and let ( Read more... )

So currently I'm learning how to work on my truck. I've had to do a few things within the last month such as: changing the oil, replacing the radiator hose,  and changing the battery. So yep lots of fun. But the biggest project thus far has been trying to change my alternator. I did most of it the way that it needed to be done, unhooked the wires, ( Read more... )

Dear One-Who-Got-Away,  
I want to tell you that I miss you,
because I don’t think you know.
I miss your
Kryptonite eyes with flecks of gold,
raven black hair,
lips the color of ripe strawberries,
your hour-glass sway.
I miss the radiation of your creativity,
your expression on canvas and page.
Telling tales that the world is yet to read,
painting pictures ( Read more... )

His face was like a train wreck,
forged by shrapnel and iron and blood.
Almost indiscernible-
a face that when it’s seen is marveled at...
but just as quickly forgotten.
He walks his dog,
his consistent friend,
as it bounds and bounces its way slowly beside him on three short legs.

Both friends seem happy as they smile.
He lives his life like a ‘80s’ song.

A dark city resides fifty feet below the Earth’s soil,
a city that is ruled by a dark figure that is as black as frozen coal
with eyes of alizarin crimson that radiate through these caverns gloom.
His name was a fright to be mentioned
and it would be foolish to think that he was a man.
The city’s name was Jahannam.
Jahannam’s buildings were chiseled into ( Read more... )
