Sad reflection of our world
I originally wrote this as a song, but alas I can't write music.. so although I have it in my head.. lol..
I was touched by the sad plights of our young souls caught in the abyss of prostitution. I was reading Jeffrey Epstein and the many victims of his evil deeds. It breaks my heart. I titled it to signify the lies they promise to the victims and families when their first approach them. I've seen a grim documentary presented by Demi Moore about their recruiting strategy in Asia especially Nepal, Philippines, etc. Very sad. Thanks all for your reads and comments if any.
9/11/2017 Update: The Memorial is still there with nothing changed. I changed the picture because last year when I took the picture it wasn't completed yet. Now the flag is flying high and proud over the monument! It is now the 16th Anniversary. This event affected me deeply as that is when I started writing poems. I had never written poetry at all or attempted. The emotions in me were so overwhelming that it started to spill out into words as a release of the pressure. 9/11/2016: My town is in the process of erecting a monument to the Twin Towers/World Trade Center, Pentagon and the flight that went down in Pennsylvania. This year is the 15th Anniversary of the attack on 9/11/2001. Highlight of the monument is the two rails that were underneath at Ground Zero. I watched them weld them to the top of the granite stones and became very emotional thinking about what they had been through. There is more going to be done on the monument and I will change the picture when it is completed.
it is not easy to live alone untill our death, here.
A prayer that speaks for all of us here at PC. :-)

I wrote this for a wild but a lovely lady. I find it natural that being wild is a part of who we are.
this is a draft, will be edited please leave your comments and suggestions of wording some phrases need more work
I have a friend who had a pair of Trumpeter swans but the female died and now he is one lonely swan. Not sure, but I have heard that swans mate for life.

I tried to put myself in the position of a jaded lover and wrote this piece. I think there are persons here to whom it may apply. It does not apply to myself directly. (Iambic Tetrameter)
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all CS folks! Please remember the Children!
Ever noticed how often a few polite emails and then they are gone, lost forever as if they never existed. What a strange world this "Cyber" world is at times. So I suppose "Houdini" is a good title for one who disappears without trace. Maybe some dont know of "Houdini" but he was the most famous escapologist ever known.

It's a bit of wordplay again.
I'm a life long Doctor Who Fan. And on some forums I frequent There are debates about which "Who" Is the best, "Classic Who" or "Nu-Who". For me that's a mute question. I like all of it. So with my tongue firmly planted in my cheek, I reworded Billy Joel’s - "It's Still Rock And Roll to Me", to express my love off all things "Who", (If you know the song hum along as you read it). Anyone Care to have a go and sing this? If you do please post the vid to Youtube and send me a link.
I just read about the poem of our dear friend Paloma who had provided me with enormous amount of inspiration on the days when I was so low and down. I am better now and I hope we can, also share her fears and frustrations because this is what I love most of this place. Our ability to share our pains, sorrows and love give us strength when we need it. That is all.
one of my favorite pieces. had to repost this also an older poem I wrote.
