Don’t!
Don’t! Step out of your hole. Stay hidden like a mole. ~ Don’t! Try to feel the sun on your face. Always remember your place. ~ Don’t! Emerge to smell the flowers. The sting of a bee will leave the memories sour. ~ Don’t! Try to experience that gentle summer rain. It will only causeContinue reading “Don’t!”
Gettin’ old
Please allow me to start this piece with, I have issues that aren’t associated with aging. However; I’m not naive enough to think the issues I have aren’t part of the problem. And I have to keep educating myself about menopause (or the change of life). I’ve always heard, your mom is a good indicatorContinue reading “Gettin’ old”
Would you explode?
Shh ~ If I taped your mouth shut, would you explode? Would you implode? ~ If you were put in a padded room with no one around, would you keep talking? Squawk, squawk, squawking. ~ Why do you talk so much. It really doesn’t create the personal touch. ~ I don’t care. Shut up ifContinue reading “Would you explode?”

Being silly at work
I’ve always wanted to collaborate with Weird Al. ~ Let’s see if you get an ear worm. 😉 I tried to post a link but I don’t think it worked so I removed it.
I WILL use you
I tried my best to beat my thoughts. But they came raging back. I tried my best to cage my thoughts. But they broke through the bars. I tried my best to strangle my thoughts. They gave me false hope. I tried my best to erase my thoughts. They kept feeding me words. I triedContinue reading “I WILL use you”
Mask up
Look at her wearing that mask. I hope she gets sick. Who does she think she is? I hope she gets sick. Did someone forget to tell her covid is over? I hope she gets sick. That mask ain’t fooling no one. I hope she gets sick. Keep your distance. Gee, let her get sick.Continue reading “Mask up”
