of slights, insolence,
conducts his analysis
through the filter
of potential prejudice
Every disrespect projected
be they real,imagined,
is meticulously examined
for subliminal opinion violations
of the politically correct
dogmatic mindset
Whatever pops in my frazzled head goes up on this wall,,, Not always pretty, but I always strive to be a little interesting and thought provoking For more of me in less than 140 characters sample me on Twitter at @WORD_MASSAGER
Here I go
ranting away incessantly
to friends and foes
from my crumbling soapbox
in a designated section
Woke up disoriented
in the midst of a raging storm
The insanity of today
on an endless loop display
trapped within my weary head
My recurring nightmares
pounding at the bolted door
seeking entrance
to today's fragile reality
Or could it all simply
be a half remembered dream
that was corrupted
by rogue misinterpretation?
Maybe things ain't as bad
as they currently seem to be
Perhaps I actually seek refuge
in all the negativity
swirling in the toxic breeze?
Expect the worst
and minimize the hurt
Find twisted solace
when disasters don't exceed
hyper gloomy expectations
Take up residence
beneath the low bar
of worse case scenarios
Embrace and celebrate
the small victories
in our glass is half full
kingdom of positive perceptions
My new love
A text based arrangement
Very impractical
Quite impossible
Half way
across the planet
Guess it could
carry potential
to be a big deal
in a happily ever after
fairy tale kind of way
That's if
it's even doable
to actually
love someone
without
ever
touching
seeing
feeling
or
tasting
them
Maybe
when all is said and done
what we have here
is just
a silly little cyber crush
after all
And yet..
If a distance conquering
non bankroll busting
mode of transportation
could be obtained
perhaps we could one day
meet in the sensuous flesh
face to face?
Though based on past experience
most likely we would find
that the flame
of unfulfilled fantasy
burns far hotter
that the flicker
of tepid reality
Would this be the case?
Probably
(sigh)
And yet...
Maybe we connected blips
could try?
These be dangerous times
for touchy feely guys
Those hands on types
with their roving arms
and groping hands
of questionable affection
Where once they were just
roll your eyes inappropriate
today they are charged
as criminal pervs
Not easy being creepy anymore
though being a misogynist dick
is no longer disqualifying in politics
The old man we used to torment
back in the day
keeps dying in my memories
We pack of snotty brats
probably hastened his demise
with our relentless attacks
How I wish I could go back
to offer my apologies
for every single cruelty
Today I am
the befuddled old man
A lame shell of former glory
Victimized by time
as yapping young hyenas
now take turns
devouring diminished me
with flesh ripping karma efficiency
Man of means
Hard working
fast talking symbol
of the American dream
Makes mega money
which sure attracts the honeys
Life on the road
You know how it goes
The wife knows
She looks the other way
Vows someday he will pay
but not today
She'll outspend
the pain
of his betrayal
Fast forward
to the lonely
old man today
First his wife
Then his
steady mistress
All passed away
Depressed senior
alone in the mansion
with his many possessions
mocking his loneliness
A friend takes the old boy
to a gentleman's club
to drool over the
main gyrating attraction
In true romantic
love story fashion
our aroused relic finds
his final passion
Showers her
with materialism
Overwhelming desires
Shop and awe
Affections purchased
for this transactional relationship
where both parties
get what they want and need
The Hell with the sniping judgements
riding smartass May/December wisecracks
from those who won't mind their own business
Wedding bells ring out in defiance
For the old man
and his trophy
named Anna
