(288)▪︎[ Burn In Hell LeRoy … 2024 ]

[ When Push, Comes To Be, A Shove ]
[ & You Get Slapped Across The Face ]
[ With An Open Glove ]
[ You Find Out Really Quick, That This Will Not Be A Good Place ]
[ To Ever, Find Love ]

[ The Slap, Cuts All Ties ]
[ For You (2), To Ever Be Able To ]
[ Again Sit Down To Eat, A Double Burger & Large Fries ]

[ After You Found Out, That He Lied ]
[ The Caring Part ]
[ That You Had For Him, Also Died ]
[ In Your Heart ]
[ You Felt That The Lies, Cut Short Your Ride ]

[ Because You Thought, That You Really Had A Good Friendship Going ]
[ With Him ]
[ When He Started Lying, About Every Little Thing ]
[ It Became A Big Problem ]

[ But He Did Not Give A Rat’s Ass ]
[ About The Truth ]
[ He Would Even Lie To Pass ]
[ The Age Requirement, To Be The One In A Kissing Booth ]

[ The Care, Started Stopping ]
[ When His Responsibilities Began ]
[ When His Facade, Started Dropping ]
[ Then, He Got Up & Ran ]

[ He Sucked You In ]
[ Then Hung You Out, To Dry ]
[ All So He Could Say That He Got Another Win ]
[ Over Yet, Another, Shorter Guy ]

[ It Must Be That Shorter People Are His Kryptonight ]
[ Wrong Or Right ]
[ The Other Person Must Be Shorter ]
[ Before He Will Pick A Fight ]
[ His Thoughts Are Not Worth A Quarter ]
[ When He Thinks That Height ]
[ Makes Might ]

[ That Was What Was Important ]
[ To Him ]
[ That Is What Paid The Rent ]
[ Chances Were Very Slim ]
[ That This Bothered His Self-Conscience ]
[ You Can Guarantee That This Did Not Even Make A Dent ]

[ You Should Have Seen This Coming ]
[ Everytime He Talked About A Past Conquest ]
[ It Seemed Very Mind Numbing ]
[ How He Always Thought That He Was The Best ]
[ Because He Was Always The First Person That Took Off Running ]

[ If You Look, @ His Past ]
[ There Are Probably Hundreds Of Dead Bodies, Thrown Inside The Ditches That Line The Country Roads ]
[ Friendships, That Were Not Supposed To Last ]
[ Maybe Some People, Were Able To Decipher, Some Of His Secret Codes ]

[ Your Biggest Hope ]
[ Is That He Will Stumble Across A Woman, That Really Catches His Heart & Eye ]
[ But She Always Says (NOPE) ]
[ When Someone Tries To Keep Her With Just One Guy ]

[ When It Comes To A Female Double, She Is It ]
[ She Doesn’t Stay With Just One Gender ]
[ She Doesn’t Put Up With Anybodies Shit ]
[ Just Like Her Heart, Never Lets Her, Become Tender ]

[ What Scares LeRoy Into Running, Scares Him Alot ]
[ You Hope That Someday, Someone Will Get Him To Stop ]
[ Put Him On The Spot ]
[ Turn The Heat Up, On His Bare Feet ]
[ To Where It Would Get To Be, Unbearably Hot ]

[ Then Let Him Stand There & Shout ]
[ While He Burns Up ]
[ From The Inside Out ]

[ You Hope That Someday Soon, He Will Saddle Up To His True Master & Be Well ]
[ As He Spends An Eternity Serving Satan, In Hell ]

(031)▪︎[ The Worst Experience … 2024 ]

[ Sometimes, When You Are The Unluckiest Of People, That Were Handpicked To Experience Grief ]
[ From That Date Forward ]
[ It Is Like Part Of Your Soul, Was Stolen By A Silent, Thief ]
[ & Nobody Finds It Important, To Post A Reward ]

[ You Don’t Feel That You Will Ever Get The Time Back, That You Lost ]
[ You Have Gone To The Best Psychiatrists ]
[ No Matter The Cost ]

[ You Grew Up Surrounded By Opulence ]
[ You Thought That Everyone Did ]
[ You Were Told This, When You Learned That The Grass Isn’t Always Greener, On Your Neighbors Side, Of The Fence ]

[ You Thought That Anyone That Grew Up In The South ]
[ Were Taught Not To Pout ]
[ You Quickly Learned That Not Everybody Grew Up With A Silver Spoon, In Their Mouth ]

[ Not Every Child Grew Up Using A Plate Or Spoon ]
[ There Was Zero Glassware ]
[ Used Before Noon ]

[ Now Heaven Has Reached Down & Taken The Number One Reason To Live ]
[ When You Met Her ]
[ You Did Not Know How To Forgive ]

[ She Talked You Off Of That Buildings Ledge ]
[ For The Last Year & A Half ]
[ You Were Living Your Life On The Edge ]

[ Racing Motorcycles Up To The Edge Of The Cliff ]
[ Confronting Strangers ]
[ That Do Not Want To Be Involved In Any Mindless Rift ]

[ This Is The Seventh Death, In Your Family, In The Last (2½ Years) ]
[ This Has Superceeded, Your Worst Fears ]

[ You Never Expected ]
[ Or Accepted ]

[ The Talk That You Would Constantly Over Hear ]
[ Ever Since Then ]
[ Nothing Seems To Be, @ All Very Clear ]

[ You Hear Whispers, Until You Look ]
[ You Do Not Eat ]
[ Unless You Are The Only One That Will Cook ]
[ You Became Vegan, So You No Longer Make Meals With Meat ]

[ It Was A Forced Choice ]
[ Not One, That Was Made, With Your Voice ]

[ But As You Begin To Follow The Prescribed Menu By The Letter ]
[ You Have Slowly ]
[ Started Feeling Better ]

[ Can You Start To Heal By Taking A Long Walk? ]
[ Then You Don’t Have To Become, An Anonymous Outline In Chalk ]
[ On A City Sidewalk ]

[ There Are People, That Persevere ]
[ Because They Are The Ones, That Get In The Driver’s Seat, To Steer ]
[ Not Succumbing To The Demons ]
[ That Push Others Onto A Barstool, Drowning Their Sorrows, In Beer ]

[ (2) Vastly Different People, Who Have A Different Goal ]
[ One Wants To Once Again Become Whole ]
[ The Other Invited Satan Into Their Troubled World ]
[ Then Sold Their Soul ]

[ For What They Thought Would Be Some Sort Of Relief ]
[ Having The Belief]

[ That Since Alcohol Would Temporarily Make Them Numb ]
[ It Was Their Way Back To Normalcy ]
[ That Just Proved To Be An Extremely Dumb ]
[ Fallacy ]

[ They Never Learned, That Making It Back, To Getting Ahead ]
[ Takes Hard Work ]
[ Not By Making Alcohol, Their Cure All Med ]
[ Giving Them Permission, To Go Berserk ]
[ Then Sleeping For Days, In Their Bed ]

[ The Way Back, During Recovery ]
[ Can Be Filled ]
[ With Both Positive & Negative Discovery ]

[ Oftentimes, Not Knowing How Good You Have It In Your Life, Until It Is Yanked Away ]
[ Here Today ]

[ Then Gone The Next ]
[ Not Being Told In A Letter ]
[ Now Being Sent A (DEAR JOHN) Text ]

[ Right There In Front Of You, On Your Phone ]
[ Possibly Leaving You, All Alone ]
[ Your Future Plans, Being Blown, Up ]
[ Cutting You To The Bone ]

[ How Do You Start Back Up? ]
[ Or … Do You Just Give Up? ]

[ This Is A Make ]
[ Or ]
[ Break ]

[ Moment ]
[ Maybe, Not The Best Time, For A Sarcastic Comment ]

[ You Realize That This Will Be The Time, To Pull Up Your Big Boy Pants ]
[ Getting Off Of The Floor ]
[ Away From The Ants ]
[ To Walk Out The Front Door ]

[ You See The Darkness In The Distance ]
[ Sherpa Steps ]
[ You Have To Fight Against The Resistance ]

[ Do You Love Life & Hate It @ The Same Time ]
[ Looking @ Yourself In The Mirror ]
[ As You Drink From The Same Vine ]

(1216)▪︎[ My Friend Is Hurting … 2023 ]

[ Your Good Friend Is Really Hurting Right Now ]
[ You Want To Comfort Her ]
[ But You Don’t Exactly Know How ]

[ Maybe Her Life Feels Like It Is Going In Slow Motion ]
[ Or It Is Going Up & Down ]
[ Like Being In A Boat, Riding The Waves Of The Ocean ]

[ You Can’t Seem To Give Her Any Empathy ]
[ Because You Don’t Exactly Know How She Feels ]
[ You Don’t Want To Show Apathy ]
[ Because You Are Not The Cart That Lost It’s Wheels ]

[ The Wheels That Helped The Cart ]
[ Go ‘Round & ‘Round ]
[ Now It Feels Like Whenever She Gets Up To Start ]
[ It Grinds To A Halt In The Ground ]

[ She Feels Like She Lost Her Purpose In Life ]
[ For The Longest Time ]
[ Part Of Her Role Used To Be Being A Wife ]

[ She Is Not So Sure ]
[ That She Really Has A Role In Society ]
[ That Would Define Her ]

[ On One End ]
[ She Is A Stabilizing Mother & Grandmother ]
[ On The Other, She Is My Close Friend ]

[ You Have Always Needed ]
[ A Strong, Level Headed Force ]
[ & The Advice That Never Goes Unheeded ]
[ Helps To Keep You On Your Life’s Course ]

[ She Doesn’t Judge ]
[ You On What You Do ]
[ But Her Opinion Won’t Budge ]
[ After She Gives You A Clue ]

[ Sometimes She Would Give You A Look Of Concern ]
[ Instead ]
[ You Guess, Because She Might Have Thought That You Wouldn’t Learn ]
[ If She Slapped You Upside Your Head ]

[ Your Friendship With Her Began Before Your Marriage Even Thought Of Starting ]
[ She Did Not Hold Back Any Of The Words ]
[ She Wanted To Be Imparting ]

[ Your Friend Would Come To Your Rescue Whenever She Found ]
[ You Face Down ]
[ On The Ground ]
[ Floundering ]
[ All Around ]

[ She Never Stood Back ]
[ & Had A Laugh ]
[ She Never Verbally Attacked ]
[ She Did Not Ever Track All Of Your Failures On A Graph ]

[ Because There Would Be Quite A Few ]
[ Whenever She Hears That You Might Have Stumbled, She Would Think (WELL, THAT’s NOTHING NEW) ]

[ You Want Her To Know That When It Comes To You, Her Purpose In Life, Is Vast ]
[ When She Gives You Love, You Know That It Will Last ]
[ This Friendship Continues To Be Part Of Your Future ]
[ Not Just A Part Of Your Past ]

[ Everyday ]
[ You Realize That There Is No Way ]
[ That You Can Take All Of The Pain That She Has ]
[ Away ]

[ You Know That You Don’t Have The Power ]
[ To Make Her Pain Go Away For A Single Minute ]
[ Or For An Hour ]

[ You Thank The Big Guy That Resides Way Up Above ]
[ The Biggest & Best Thing ]
[ That You Can Do For Your Friend, Is To Shower Her With Your Undying Love ]

[ The Least Thing That You Can Do ]
[ Is To Tell Her How Much She Means To You ]

[ Well … Maybe You Just Did ]

[ I Love You Lots, Rita ]

[ A Taunt ]
[ Time Will Run Out, Sooner Than You Want ]

[ Sit Down & Call A Friend ]
[ Be Crazy When You Go To Bed ]
[ Pick-Up Your Pillow & Favorite Blanket ]
[ Go To Sleep On The Other End ]

[ What Are You Waiting For? ]
[ Watching Your Investments ]
[ Because You Hope That They Are Worth More? ]

[ You Wish, That Your Mind, Would Quit ]
[ With The Guilt ]

[ Every Night, Thank The Guy, Up High Above ]
[ For Letting You Have, One More Day ]

[ What Causes, A Big Problem ]
[ Is When You DON’t, Tell Them! ]

[ People Can Go, Really Fast ]
[ Time Will Fly, Right Past ]

[ Most Days, You Usually Only Get One Shot ]
[ To Tell Them That You Love Them, Alot ]

[ Kids, Don’t Slow Down ]
[ The Mrs. Could Be Going Shopping, In Town ]

[ Sometimes You Don’t Get, A Second Chance, To Say (GOODBYE) ]

(1121)▪︎[ How Will You Hope To Cope? … 2023 ]

[ How, Do You Wake ]
[ When You Use Sleeping, As A Coping Mechanism ]
[ Instead Of Looking For, Some Kind Of Medication, To Take? ]

[ When The Experts Say (YOU CAN’t BE HURT BY ANYONE) When You Dream ]
[ Ummm, (NO!) ]
[ People Can Work As A Team ]
[ So … ]
[ The Dreams/Nightmares, Can Make You Scream ]

[ Dreams Can Bend Around The Corners Of Time ]
[ Causing A Minor Memory ]
[ To Become Sublime ]

[ People Who Are Decades Apart In Your Past ]
[ Can Come Together ]
[ Even Though The Difference Of Time Is So Vast ]

[ An Event From When You Were A Teen ]
[ Could Be Happening Now ]
[ Without Any Wasted Time In-Between ]

[ How Did This Person Relate To That Person? ]
[ Or That One? ]
[ Or The (2023) Version? ]

[ Your Dreams Now Seem So Vivid & Life-Like ]
[ Messing With Your Mind ]
[ While Disrupting Your Psych ]

[ When You Finally Wake, You Find That You Are Not Doing So Well ]
[ Trying To Reassure Yourself That Things Are (OKAY) ]
[ Is A Very Hard Sell ]
[ But In A Way ]
[ If You Want To Talk About It, You Wouldn’t Know What To Tell ]

[ When You Wake, You See That Your Dream Did Not Make Any Sense ]
[ It Was Not Like You Were Looking For Greener Grass On Your Neighbor’s Side Of The Fence ]
[ It Was So Believable ]
[ You Woke Up Feeling Really Tense ]

[ But As You Try To Put Your Dream In Order ]
[ & She Is There ]
[ You Are Ignored By Her ]

[ That Does Not Make Sense @ All ]
[ She Is In Your Dream ]
[ But She Treats You Like A Wall? ]

[ Some Dreams Center On A Past Event ]
[ But Maybe Things Did Not Seem The Same Way That They Went ]
[ Maybe, That Was Not How It Was Meant ]

[ Dreams Can Go Whacky, In A Second ]
[ If People Are There ]
[ Was There A Purpose ]
[ For Them To Be Reckoned? ]

[ Why Does Your Dream Still Seem So Vivid, Once You Are Fully Awake? ]
[ Some Dreams, Make Your Heart Ache ]
[ Causing Your Hands To Shake ]

[ Going To Sleep To Escape The Problems Of Your Life ]
[ Might Sound Good ]
[ But In Reality, Can Cause More Strife ]

[ Than, Before You Closed Your Eyes ]
[ When You Are Searching For A Hiding Spot ]
[ The Decisions Made, Are Not Always That Wise ]

[ Trying To Cope This Way, Is Equivalent To Hiding Your Head Under A Rock ]
[ No One Will Talk ]
[ There Is No Watching The Clock ]

[ Nothing You Will See ]
[ Will Possibly Be ]
[ The Key ]

[ To Coping ]
[ But … ]
[ You Can Keep Hoping ]

(746)▪︎[ The Kind Of Words … 2023 ]

[ When I Look In Your Eyes ]
[ I Can See All Of The Lies ]
[ About You ]
[ & All Of Those Other Guys ]

[ Why Would You Tell Me That They Were Long Ago In Your Past ]
[ When In Fact ]
[ They Were During The Night Before Last ]

[ You Can No Longer Hide Behind Those Big Baby Blues ]
[ You No Longer Can Point Your Finger ]
[ @ Me & Accuse ]

[ I Should Be The Accuser ]
[ That I Am Sure ]
[ But Will I Succumb To The Vast Amount Of Peer Pressure? ]

[ You Have Nothing To Point @ On This End ]
[ Now The Wounds That You Caused ]
[ Will Never Mend ]

[ When Your Voice Said Those Words ]
[ They Were The Most Vile ]
[ That I Had Ever Heard ]

[ All Of Those Times That You Tried To Defend ]
[ Your Words Did Nothing But Offend ]

[ One After The Next ]
[ You Proved Your Guilt ]
[ Through Text After Text ]

[ Your Job Was Never Complete ]
[ Whenever You Tried To Delete ]

[ The Evidence @ Hand ]
[ Whenever Someone Got Close ]
[ You Packed Up & Ran ]
[ You Were Always The One That Chose ]
[ When & Where You Would Land ]

[ It Should Have Been The Choice Of The Ones That You Accused ]
[ Not The Ones That You Refused ]
[ Or Abused ]

[ So You Might Ask ]
[ What Will Be The Next Task? ]

[ Will The Request Be Forever Remembered? ]
[ Or Will It Feel Like You Had Just Been Dismembered? ]

[ A Part Of The Sum ]
[ Or A Part That Is Now Numb? ]
[ Should I Stay Mum? ]
[ If I Feel Like This Whole Situation Is Extremely Dumb? ]

[ Should I Instead Speak My Mind? ]
[ If I Find ]
[ The Kind ]
[ Of Words, Where I Can Unwind? ]

[ That Sounds Like Someone That Was Going Dakine ]
