Danger Men At Work


Love can bring out every single one of the seven deadly sins in me.

My heart is a steam engine
it dances and sways down a track
But I'm not on board…
I'm tied by doubt to the rails right in front of you
Do you even see me?
Do you hear me screaming?
I'm afraid of myself and of you
The vibrations are exciting
The rumblings are terrifying
When I'm crushed by the weight of love I only hope….

Spring Showers

You know, I’ve been dying to make a post but I don’t really use my time connected to WiFi wisely when it comes to creative growth and expression. Every morning I spend at least an hour hating myself... can you believe that ? I suppose if I start my day low it can only get better.  Lately I’ve been tweeting way too much which is why I know I need to be here right now... I should be so happy I think. I guess. I’m not sad or mad either I’m just afraid of having made terrible choices. I think I actually made a very good choice but I’m not satisfied with it? Like most of my life I strive for comfort yet I do not want to be comfortable right now... or I do and I’m not?

My plan so far has been to ignore this feeling because I know that I’m actually doing alright. I’m sure I can continue on this...

Sweet Disposition

I really thought I titled a post like that already but I guess not. Today is Thursday, an hour left until Friday. I purposely want to be alone yet I feel lonely. It's too late now for me to seek companionship so I have turned to my blog, my old friend, my confidant, my salt and my pepper. Let me tell you all a story... Once upon a time, a seed was planted in the sand.  And although no one expected it to happen, A mango tree grew, right by the sea. It bore fruit as succulent as the last lips you will kiss before you die. The branches, thick and sturdy, stretched over roaring waters. The sea was so angry at the mango tree. The sea was angry because it was jealous. Every day for the past 8 years, a young lady would come to the sea to admire the way the sun and moon glistened upon its surface and the way the waves danced upon the shore and teased her toes. She loved the sea and the sea loved her back. She couldn't swim. She would walk towards the water and watch how the w...

“For All My Heartbreak Dreamers...”

And this one right here ...ah...this is for the fat girls. This one is uh...is for the little brothers. This is for the schoolyard wimps and for the childhood bullies who tormented them. ...to the former prom queen and to the milk crate ball players For the nighttime cereal eaters and for the retired elderly Wal-Mart store front door greeters Shake the dust This is for the benches and the people sitting upon them... For the bus driver's driving a million broken hymns... To the men who have to hold down three jobs simply to hold up their children... For the nighttime schoolers... and for the midnight bike riders trying to fly. Shake the dust This is for the two year olds who cannot be understood because they speak half English and half God Shake the dust For the boys with the beautiful beautiful sisters Shake the dust For the girls with those brothers who are going crazy... Those gym class wallflowers and the twelve...
