The letter began “It has come to our attention that…..” I stopped reading. They knew then. About me, my children and the Nursery. That’s what I called it. The Nursery. It’s where I put the children when they misbehave. You see, they have all they need there. Beds and blankets all around. Dolls for the girls and cars for the boys.

They’re free to play even though they’re in restraints. It’s just ...

As I wandered through the trees, twigs and leaves crunching underfoot, I began to understand the true purpose of this sanctuary. Only in silence can we truly elevate to the next level. Only then can we hear the chaos and beautiful intricacies that surround us in the natural world. The true challenge lies in the continual conscious effort to remain still in mind and body. A wholly personal journey...

I thought I had chosen correctly. I read the right things, talked to many different people with many different views and I considered every aspect of both sides. In the end, I felt 100% comfortable with my choice. I realize now that my decision has helped facilitate this complete and total destruction of my beloved country. In all my research I never investigated the possibility that my choice wou...

The little old man in the conical hat

Smiled as he passed by his hanging pet bat

Then he got to his chair it was there that he sat

And proceeded to get down to work

He reached across the table to get to the jar

That was filled to the brim with magic from afar

So special to him it was marked with a star

Love is a flower

Unfolding by the hour

And with each new petal

My devotion grows and gains great power

I’m meeting him over and over again

He tells me new things

Of what happened when

Before we exchanged rings

Everyday I’m learning something new

From what he says

And what he can do

Time and again

When our moments are few

He can take one and one and make two

It came to me one summer day

That I could act a different way

Instead of being Oscar the Grouch

I could put away my short little fuse

And see that I have the power to choose

Instead of using cutting words

That fly around like angry birds

I heard him crying like he was dying

Silent wrenching tears that left his face a mask of pain and sorrow from all my lying

It was a noose I was tying

I’m out of control

So deep in a hole

And I’m thinking that life isn’t so great

It may be too late

But each tear that fell from that endless well

Came down to me in my chemical hell

I feel change is coming

I feel it, I can tell

I’ve torn down t...

Pain will drain

Pill equals kill

Prequels follow sequels

Swallow and follow...
