I found this poem I had written in a notebook...I don't remember when or what prompted it...but it must have been one of those days where I felt no control over anything....  so here it is...

I can't breathe.

I'm starting to seethe.

I'm losing control.

I'm falling into a black hole.

All I want to do is cry.

I wish I could just fly.

But which direction do I go?

I just don't know.

God help me,

Please set me free.

I'm not going to cry any more

Ventriloquist Veterinarian

Here in Tahlequah, we got a new veterinarian, who happened to be a ventriloquist.

Dr. Majors was called out to Mr. Jones' farm to check on some of his animals. So, Dr. Majors decided to have some fun with Mr. Jones.

When he arrived at Mr. Jones' farm, Mr. Jones took him to the barn to look at his milk cow.

Dr. Majors looked at the cow and asked, "What's wrong, Bessie?"

Mr. Jones looked puzzled....but was shocked when he heard Bessie reply, "Well Doc, ...my udders are killing me!"

"Cows can't talk! What's going on here....do you have some kind of walkie talkie or something....I don't believe this....this is crazy!", Mr. Jones exclaimed.

"Well, Mr. Jones, I have a talent for talking to animals....and in return they talk back. What other animals do you want me to check?...By the way....use this salve on Bessie's udders to make her feel better.", the doctor replied.

Mr. Jones took the doctor to check on his chickens because they weren't laying eggs like they should.

Again, the doctor asked the chickens what was wrong and one of the chickens answered, "We don't like that old rooster....he's getting on in years...we want a young cock to take his place...if you know what we mean!"

Mr. Jones still didn't believe his ears and told the doctor that he must be using some trick to make them talk.

But the doctor just smiled and told the farmer to get a new rooster and the hens would be laying eggs like never before!

Next they went to look at one of the farmer's horses. Again, the doctor asked what was wrong and the horse told him he had a stone in his shoe.

The doctor removed the stone and the horse told him thanks!

Dr. Majors asked about what other animals needed checking on and Mr. Jones replied, " I guess you should go ahead and look at my sheep".

As they were walking to the sheep pens, Mr. Jones started to break out into a sweat and as he was mopping his brow with his handkerchief, he looked over at the doctor and said, "There's something you should know about the sheep, Doc.

Sheep lie!"

This has always been a favorite poem of mine.  It speaks to a part of my own character.  I always like to keep some part of myself to myself.

MELANCHOLIEIA

His mind Living Among The Stars,
A Very Young Boy tries to hide the scars.
His secret Tribulation hidden from sight,
Waiting for Time to set things right.
Living Among The Stars is his only release..
It's just a Matter Of Time before he finds peace.


Seven Nations

You promised a little Sumthin' Sumthin' for me.
I never expected it to be so out of the Ordinary!
Right then and there, I decided You'd Be Mine.
There will be no Last Call to drink your wine.
Sweet Liberty is found in such sweet release.
Asleep For Days, we slumber in peace.


Dead Etiquette

I'll Never Come Home.
These lonely roads I will roam.
Because of All That You Have Become,
My life to you, I do succumb.
A way Back From The Dead, I will find,
For our fates are forever intertwined.
All my fears--you Shot Em' Down.
I will always keep your music around.


SPITFIRE

We're Not So Innocent to think it's more than sex.
The Science of love is so much more complex.
Daylight comes and so have we.
Can't Breakout From The Fever you give to me.
Stepping On My Toes, you have no shame.
One night with you, I'll Never Be The Same.


The BAcksliders

Typically, I Don't Mind when you don't call.
But reading about your Wedding Day in the news, what gall!
I guess Fat Girls are fine to pass the night with.
Well, I Got Mine, even if it is just a myth.
You know You're Gonna Miss Me one of night
When you're alone Under The Moonlight.

STERLING Y

I used to want to live the American Dream,
But I just couldn't follow that scheme.
Being chained to your idea of perfection is Over Now.
All your rules and tenets, I now disavow.
I'm going to Let It Out--let my spirit fly.
Live a new dream by and by.

I want to fly away to Wonderland,
But my wings were clipped Long Ago.
In my Soul, Silence is in command.
What I Need, I just don't know.
Show Me What You Got, to keep me in hand.
Keep me from Falling Down--don't let me go.

...In an elaborate way,
I just want to say,
Thanks for the add, Sidewalk Gray!...

Panadole

Different strokes for different folks,
As the saying goes.
I must say that your music provokes
Those that are lead by the nose
And have closed their minds to anything new.
I love that you are so unique
And want to share your music so true.
Even to me, who is just a bit of a geek.

(I didn't use song titles in this one...he is very unique...)

StilrizE

No need to feel any Anxiety.
I'd never be a FakeAss Girlfriend.
I don't belong to that secret society.
I won't be Broken. Tragedy is at an end.
Though I long to hold on to The Dream,
These Chains keep me bound to reality.
Your music's so Damn Beautiful, I just want to scream.
Just want to thank you without formality.

Mackenzie 1st

There must be a Better way this can be expressed.
Sounds so Blase to say, thanks for the request.
Sorry EmmaLucillia was such a Renegade;
But Good News, your music will never be overplayed!

Nick Black

Thanks for the request!
Wishing you all the best...

I'm Sorry is such a Hollow phrase.
I lay Beside You and Fall to Pieces,
Because your gonna say It's Over one of these days.

....I'm looking forward to future releases!

DIARY

You can't be So Far Gone,
That you can't Remember Me.
I don't Picture myself as a pawn.
There's nothing to Hide if you want to be free.
Was it Something I Said that made you go away.
I guess that's all I have to say.

I borrowed these quotes from my friend, Tom.  He graciously allowed me to share them with my friends! Thanks Tom!

Never take someone for granted.
Hold every person close to your heart.
Because you might wake up one day, and realize that you have lost a diamond,while you were busy collecting stones.

Dancin’ With the Shadows on the Wall

She dances with the shadows on the wall,
Just waiting for him to call.

He makes her promises in the night,
He can’t keep in the morning light.

When he walks out the front door,
She cries, "I want so much more!"

But another woman has his name,
So she learns to play the game.

And she dances with the shadows on the wall,
Waiting for him to call.
