Temporary Release.
Recently I had a worrying health scare but thank God all tests and scans were clear. I wrote this little poem in the hospital car park. I need to say...... It was Cancer that made me write so without it I wouldn't be part of this lovely family-like corner. Thanks for all your reads and comments. Special thanks to "C" for kind support , and "L" for prayers. Onwards and upwards..........Mick.
Black Man Walking
Being female, not black how can I possibly know what it’s like to walk in dark male skin, where in a white-dominated society being young and loved is not enough to keep one safe to walk about free-born. Skittles, iced tea from store co

Hand Out
Ups and downs of loving we all do surely know but friendships shared have, too, a gentle ebb and flow When you are down, above with spirits high someone may well be seen but also beneath can be found a friend with their deep sigh Spir

Leave Me Alone!
There are a lot of busy bodies out there who think they are making the world a better place and are instead just being jerks. I can't stand to see parrots in cages. I went to this zoo where they had so many parrots crammed into a caged area that they had pulled most of the feathers off of each other. You can find this zoo in WI Dells, Wisconsin.

Lords of the Prairies - A Tribute To The Bison
The arrival of vast waves of white settlers in the 1800s, and their conflict with the Native American residents of the prairies, spelled the end for the buffalo. There were even buffalo killing contests. In one, a Kansan set a record by killing 120 bison in just 40 minutes. “Buffalo” Bill Cody, hired to slaughter the animals, killed more than 4,000 buffalo in just two years. Some U.S. government officials even promoted the destruction of the bison herds as a way to defeat their Native American enemies, who were resisting the takeover of their lands by white settlers. One Congressman, James Throckmorton of Texas, believed that “it would be a great step forward in the civilization of the Indians and the preservation of peace on the border if there was not a buffalo in existence.” Soon, military commanders were ordering their troops to kill buffalo — not for food, but to deny Native Americans their own source of food. One general believed that buffalo hunters “did more to defeat the Indian nations in a few years than soldiers did in 50.” By 1880, the slaughter was almost over. Where millions of buffalo once roamed, only a few thousand animals remained.

What is the meaning of happiness? listen olive eyed, You and I sitting on the chair, apparence is two but in one soul, you and I, we We feel the flowing water of life here, you and I, with the garden's beauty and the birds singing.

Monkey Gong
Breathing in than breathing faster, A perfect disaster this life of mine. I need a drink while I'm still here waiting, For this to all to be over and I'll be home. To sit by myself and think for a second Turning into minutes and now hours long.
Monster Ash
This song is a parody of Monster Mash by Tim Cavanaugh. With Ash Wednesday starting the Easter holiday, I thought it was a funny parody.
Funny Moments in Christmas Movies
I watch a lot of Christmas movies. In this list I was looking for funny moments in Christmas movies. Of course there are a lot of other moments, but I was trying to do just one per movie. Saturday Night Live did a very funny retelling of the end of It's A Wonderful Life. In it Mr. Potter gets beat up by George Bailey and his wife with help from the mob.

Limerick - Oldtimer's Disease
There's a forgetful old broad they call Babe, She can't even remember her age, But she knows she had fun When she was young, And she remembers how many she's laid.
I want to die
not literally die just find her and collapse in her arms for the night.
You gotta love him.
It's not about what's on the outside.
