Egg on my face and poop on my shoe

 

A friend and I went walking,

carefully through the barnyard.

Placing our steps with caution,

keeping clean shoes was hard.

 

Whilst paying close attention,

on the placing of my friends shoe,

I stepped right in one,

now ain't that a fine how-do-ya-do.

Life on the intranet

 

Life evolving on the intranet,

do you really think it's real?

What if this virtual world,

is actually creating the deal?

 

The Frankenstein worm may live,

breeding and evolving with time.

One day in our near future,

he may really organize crime?

 

So click on to your favorites,

and hunt this rebel clown.

Maybe we can stop the trend,

and put this monster down???

Faith

 

Faith is a personal treasure,

a right and priviledge for all.

A light in the dark places,

an invisable but salient call.

 

A voice of pure authority,

speaking softly within our heart.

Directing, pointing, and leading

those that choose to be smart.

 

Smart, because time has revealed,

our weakness and our folly.

But faith creates within our being,

something greater, something Holy.

To be remembered?

 

 

What is memory if not,

a picture frozen in one's mind.

Or the sound of music,

the sight of beauty's kind.

 

How will I be remembered?

By the words that I speak,

or just the sound of my voice,

or beauty's vanity we all seek.

 

When my time has expired,

and all has become still.

Who will remeber my life?

My Lord in Heaven will.

Speak of truth

 

 

Our lives stretch before us,

like the branches of a tree.

One branch leads to bondage

another will set you free.

 

Truth of a truth is what we seek,

but few are they that find.

For truth comes in many colors,

when the blind are leading the blind.

 

You may ask me for my proof,

if I tell, will you then believe?

When our God in Heaven calls,

Will you be ready to leave?

Computer chips,

made commoner than paper clips,

Last decade's prizes in a jumble of cut ribbon cable on the curb,

waiting for trash pickup,

Disposable Appliances with the MIPS rating of my youth's supercomputers,

Upset my sense of order.

Unused compute cycles in gadgets clipped to and sewn into clothing,

persistently accumulating entropy,

offend me.

Marvels made common

by the relentless efficiency of mass production

draw my attention to the bright place of human consciousness,

making me wonder

if biology

hasn't played

the same trick

on us.

Second thoughts

 

Hopping a ride on a starship bound,

pushing my luck to come around,

speeding along with an awful sound,

searching for things to be found.

 

Drinking the adventure in with a sip,

giving ground control no cursing lip,

hoping this frail rocket dosen't rip,

I sure wish I hadn't made this trip.

 

Earth slowly passing out of sight,

as the sun began dimming her light,

then it overtook me with a fright,

alas, I'll turn her around I might.

 

To ground control a message to send,

please allow me my orbit to bend,

and when I land your help to lend,

there goes the alarm, This is the end.

Unforgiveness

 

 

Has someone done you wrong,

caused you some grief and harm.

These things happen in this life,

should cause you no great alarm.

 

Remember times you were mean,

and your anger you directed,

at some poor unsuspecting soul,

because their mischief you suspected.

 

We all make mistakes while living,

for to error is human they say.

So give the other guy a break,

he'll return the favor some day.

 

But if he fails to consider you,

forget his behavior, just let it be.

For the pain of unforgiveness

will hurt you much more than he.

When I'm broke as something that is broke

and can't afford real machine rolled cigarettes

(cigarette... euphemism for effiminate cigar!)

I get Bugler, which has good papers that dispense

real fine from a blue carboard dispense dispenser

then I get those premade Zig Zag tubes with filters that I don't have the machine for

& hand roll a Buglet to as round as I am able

then stuff it on in the tube & fire up.

When I'm broke as something that is broke. :hihi:
