Temporary Verses for Violet

Tim Calvert: just want you to know, from beyond, that you are missed. Your friendship was an awesome thing.

Dyslexics of the world, UNTIE!!!

Happy Upcoming Native American Holocaust Day [otherwise known as Thanksgiving]

I can't say what I desire
Out of sheer respect
Congratulations to you
and I expect
Most of your choices
Will merit great rewards
Instead of just Mascara
You'll also have swords

Illustrious, Notorious/ Simple and Glorious

Someone VERY special to me posted this. Take time and read it. Even if you are standing (or sitting) completely still, this is still moving:
I’ve lived as high and as low as it’s possible to go. There were times I’d put $2 worth of gas in my tank and other times $50. I’ve had $5 to just feed myself and I’ve also had $200 to go out to eat. I’ve had a house full of food and times I didn’t have any. I’ve been in stores cashing out with no worries and I’ve also had to add it up and put things back on the shelf. I’ve paid my bills in full and I’ve had to pay them late too. I’ve given money and I too have had to ask for it.
We all have highs and lows in life. Some certainly more than others, but we are all just trying to make it.
No one is better than anyone else and my heart is sad for those people who think that they are. No matter how big your house is, how new your car is, or how much money sits in your bank account - we all bleed red and will eventually fade from this earth. Death has no discrimination and neither should your life.
Be kind to others. We are all here to serve. Stop the power tripping. Your oversized ego won’t get you anywhere.
Be humble. And keep faith going.
Very few will actually read this far, but if you’re genuine I challenge you to copy. Most won’t, because they’re the type of people I’m talking about.

Violet, I know I have been gone a couple of weeks. I have left messages on your phone. Does it still work? Just know, I am there. Except for today and tomorrow. I am about to go "...out of range...." Do you have a PayPal for yourself? Does Jonah? I will never ever use CashApp.

I am a whisper, seldom heard
What I say is not indifferent
Sometimes, though, absurd
I am a whisper, seldom a scream
Want to protect the Innocent
She is like a dream
There are no allegations
No hidden compliment
Revel in Imagination
Enjoy the Magnificent

Good intentions are all good and fine, but it's positive actions that truly make the difference.

So many times, I have been less than stellar in my reaction towards certain (mis)actions and activities.

In so much as I can say
In so much as I can say
In so much as I can say
Don't amount to a hill of beans, anyway
In so much as I can say
In so much as I can say
In so much as I can say
Black and white, a hint of grey

It looks less and less likely
Nothing official; that's way too cold
It looks less and less likely
All that glitters is not gold
(Not looking, not looking, oh no
Not looking, not looking, for El Dorado)
-------

This is just the beginning of a piece. It's something of a dance song mixed with a ballad. I have not constructed how it will sound yet. I think the first step would be to finish writing the lyrics.

----
El Dorado is the mysthical City of Gold.

Counterpunch
________________
His opportunity was division
Love and dreams torn asunder
He seemed to revel in derision
What rock did he slide under?

I do not need to beg for food
But I am at risk of returning to poverty
Don't take it as me being rude
Still, I fight, still, I remain me

CHORUS:
Tensions, they grow
Have something more than a hunch
Do I really know?
Or is this a Counterpunch?

Slide to the Left or ease to the right
No real concern about anyone else's plight
Foot-in-the-mouth? No, he speaks out of his ass
Demands Loyalty but lacks any class

Repeat Chorus x 2

Making deals, behind-the-scenes
Breaking records and smashing dreams

Repeat Chorus x 3

Good Morning Violet and Jonah.....

At any rate:
Take me to your happy place
Our arguments wish I could erase
Take on life and its triumphs and trials
Only a few frowns and mostly smiles
