God give me wings
God give me wings
So I might fly above the masses To avoid the touch of them For their cruelty and lies Sicken me and leave a feel of filth on all they touch If you cannot give me wings God Can you give me patience So I might teach the masses Of love and life To teach them to cherish all around them God if you cannot give me patience Can you bring about the zombie apocalypse Population control in an instant People would not take everything for granted If today you could surely die

Fairy Dreams
I want to fly and dance like a fairy on a spring wind
To laugh and giggle while kissing a flower to watch it bloom I want to race hummingbirds and bees from flower to flower To twirl and somersault in midair Making my heart burst with uncontrollable joy Oh to be carefree like a fairy or a child once more To let the trappings of adulthood fall from my shoulders To remember what it was like to believe in the magical To have that magic back To be sprinkled with fairy dust and go for a flight To stand in a fairy ring and be transported to entirely different realm Time to let go of adulthood and grow young again Lets have a bit of fun

Anti Social
Why is it wrong
That I want to be left alone For a bit of time You call me anti social But honey this is just recharging My batteries So I might keep this smile on my face When you say something That hurts my brain Making me want to slap you With the stupid stick Anti social would be Me hiding in a basement Planning the demise Of all the people I have had to smack With that stupid stick So you see let me recharge Let me have my time alone Otherwise I might get grumpy And have to slap you with that stupid stick

Reds, oranges, and yellows
Sitting here watching the fire burn
Reds, oranges, and yellows swirling together Up into the night sky Giving off so much warmth Reminding me of a good hug from a loved one Walking down a road littered with fall leaves Reds, oranges, and yellows flowing In the wind everywhere A chilly wind blowing through Just makes you want to snuggle up with a loved one Watching the sunset on the horizon Reds, oranges, and yellows painted Above us most beautifully The coming of the night sky Makes you want to go home and lay down with your loved one Reds, oranges, and yellows knitted into a comfy blanket So you might wrap it around you To keep you warm and loved For a time Til your true love can be by your side

This King Size Bed
As we lay down to sleep
Our fingers touch Across the expanse of this king size bed This simple gesture so very comforting To my heart To my soul We talk late into the night About this.. about that Sometimes our future Sometimes our past These words are snuggles for my brain This meeting place at the end of the day This king size bed

Mushy
How is it that you can make me so mushy?
My heart so very squishy Making me want to sing and dance with happiness Paint pink hearts graffiti all over my reality Smearing glitter on every passing soul I want to tattoo smiley faces on everyone I know Darling dear I love you But this mushy crap has got to stop Can't I just get a daisy or two? If it rains right now I might melt! Oh darling dear I love you true Lets not mush me too much just yet

With One and All
The day has dawned
Sky so blue Sun so bright Air so crisp and clear Invigorating Refreshing Just makes me want to stretch out Stretch out to the four corners of the world Share my being with one and all Share my happiness with one and all Share the magic I do see with one and all Let me share this with one and all The day has dawned Most beautiful The possibilities are endless Just open your eyes and see

Music
Music playing
Lyrics being sung Inspiring memories Visions of the past Slipping behind my eyes The bands that meant so much to me Their songs that touched my soul To this day I swear they sang just for me I thought they knew what I went through The pain and agony of memories healing I remember jumping around to Korn and Linkin Park Dancing of a sort to Tool and A Perfect Circle Helping me feel that in some way I am understood Today I sit here and listen to them all again Thanking all powers that be For the gift of these bands For their music helped me in many ways When I wasn't open to other live human beings No matter what music you listen to Be it rap or jazz, be it punk or alternative Be it opera or broadway showtunes As long as it touches your soul That is all that matters

Rise Above It
Everywhere you look
There is someone Telling someone else What they can and cannot do Who are you to tell me That I cannot marry That I cannot be happy With the one I love This is a party for one and all Or so they said But see that guy He isn't allowed because of his dangly bits This here bar is for drinking But apparently my money isn't good enough Because I have tits and a pussy Sorry guys I don't have a dick for you! We have enough discrimination Do we really need to discriminate Against our own Rise above it But we sit back and let it happen But no more honey I am going to rise above it Where ever I see it happening

What is a life worth?
What is a life worth?
Is it worth a drink or two? Three or four? Maybe more? You and your friends Out on the town for the night Drinking away, as if you were fish Closing time has come Who is to drive? You are drunk and he is too Behind the wheel Speeding down the road Flash of light, screech of tires All you hear is screaming Burning smell mixed with a coppery sent Your hand covered in blood Your friend beside you is dead The people in the other car All dead except for the one screaming What is a life worth? How about three lives? Several years in prison I hope

Help Me
Feeling so stagnant
Neither flowing forward Nor backwards So very putrid are my thoughts Is it the lack of stimulation Or the persons I converse with This current state of mind Feeling so very disturbed Remove this poison from my being The negativity is so very contagious Spreading through me corrupting My individual essence Please save my soul From the evil of the world Encroaching on my happiness Please rip this vile energy From my fragile mortality And cleanse my spirit Help me be free of negativity Help me be pure of hate Help me be happy once again

Let The Magic
In the need of magic
In need of belief Of something bigger then me Oh to be able to see infinity To be able to see the mystical Ethereal, transcendental, totally unreal To watch the unimaginable come to life Oh Goddess bless me! Open my third eye To the Magic that surrounds me Day in and day out Let the magic brighten my day Let the magic brighten my soul Let the magic brighten my world!

Winter is Coming
The seasons are changing
From hot to chilly over night Little summer dresses are traded For jeans and comfy sweaters The seasons are changing Hot summer fun a fond memory Cold fall nights snuggled around an open fire In our immediate future The seasons are changing The bikinis are packed away The blankets are pulled out Long walks at night with the one you love The seasons are changing The trees change from green To beautiful reds and oranges Soon to fall and fly through the air The seasons are changing Summer where we fight to keep the yard green Now we have to rake leaves everyday Big black trash bags dotting our yard The seasons are changing Summer is gone Fall is here Winter is coming

Thumbs or no thumbs
Do you ever wonder what a cat thinks?
What it thinks while it looks at you? You would like to think they just want to connive more food out of you Or maybe what pile of laundry to lay on that day, clean or dirty But the truth is it is thinking "Damn I wish I had thumbs!" If a cat had thumbs they wouldn't need us So when you get that feeling as a cat is staring at you That it might be planning your demise.... it is... if it had thumbs that is Thumbs to open bags of catfood Thumbs to open cans of catfood Thumbs to clean kitty litter boxes Thumbs to open the front door to escape and be free! But alas the evolutionary chain has skipped them No thumbs for them We best be thankful Or they would take over the world They would make us their slaves To make us feed them To make us pet them To make us clean up after them Damn.. we are slaves to the cats!

Childhood or Adulthood
As children we all thought or said
"I cannot wait until I grow up, To do whatever I want whenever I want!" As adults we all think or say "Oh to be a kid again, To be carefree with no responsibilities!" Neither child or adult is happy with their lot There is no happy medium Between childhood and adulthood Being a teenager might be the worst of all Knowing you cannot go back to the carefree days But seeing the heavy responsibilities before you. So maybe remember that The next time your teenager rebels That they are just fighting the inevitable they know is coming.

The Ladies
Karma is her name
The Lady of Justice She who can punish us Or bless us Kismet is her name The Lady of Destiny To lead us to great power Or great catastrophe The Fates three Clotho she was the spinner of the thread of life Lachesis she measured the thread of life allotted to each person Atropos she cut the thread, choosing each persons manner of death Oh the Ladies who rule our lives Lovely everyone of them in their own way But deadly too if you anger them So tread lightly, speak softly, and be kind.

Bibliophile
I am a bibliophile
A lover of books To read, to touch To hold, to absorb To feel the paper pages Under my finger tips one page at a time To smell the ink The aroma filling my nose as the pages turn My eyes deciphering the words Creating images in my mind The story of this tome Unfolding before me, pulling me along for the ride The happenstance thief Discovering a most heinous plot The Hero or Heroine Battling the great evil You think the end is near Good has triumphed! But what is this?! A greater evil! A cliffhanger! A lead to another book To pull you in To lead you on another adventure With your characters that you love so dear

Homework
The words on the paper
Seem to swirl and twirl Turning in on itself I think my eyes have gone cross-eyed To read about computer parts Motherboards and CPU's The best of Intel and AMD Puts my brain on snooze Give me a desktop or laptop Let me put my hands inside Let me take out the CPU and Video Cards I will be the happiest geek you ever did see. I am a hands-on kinda geek I am visual maybe a little bit verbal But this book is draining my brain Come on let my hands play with the source

Spark
Standing out under the sun
Thrusting my hands up Giving a little prayer to the Sun God My feet start to move Dancing around as He fills me full of life Sparks come from my finger tips As I spin and dance wildly Loving life and loving all around me A spark leaps from me to you Then you start to smile and dance Laughing and twirling as sparks fly off of you The spark of life leaps from you to another And to another, til it takes over the whole world It starts with one.. one smile, one dance step Spreads like wildfire across the planet Help me carry the spark of life to cover the globe To share the Love and Peace I feel at the touch of the Sun The Sun the giver of warmth, the giver of life on a cold winters day Come lets celebrate that the Sun rotates our fair Earth and be thankful

Abandoned
Abandoned this building
We humans have crafted From brick, from wood We rip the resources from the Earth We mold it to what we want We use it for a time Then we abandon it To be reclaimed by the Earth again A new home for the wild The plants move in first Growing up the walls A tree sprouts in the middle of a room The mice and rats come next Making homes in the desks Using the random cloth left behind for nests Then come the cats Hunting for the mice and rats And maybe a dry place to stay awhile Yes Mother Earth has reclaimed What we have abandoned And made it beautiful again.
