Dream of love
All the colors
Absence of color
Black and white
Their beauty is absolute
Perfect harmony
What would the stars do
If the nights were not black
Streetlights would be lacking
Diamonds and fireflies
Need the black
A funeral passes by
Black cars and black hearses
Draped in fading flowers
The color of death
I think in black
Death should be
The color of sunset
My lover is black
She says
True love is or it ain't
Thin love is no love at all
To love and be loved
Is everything
It makes your soul
Climb out from its hiding place
Black is not sad
Bright colors depress me
They are empty
Black is poetic
It's how I imagine
The poet
Dressed in black...

You finally came to our area
No more going to Madison to see your films
For once you picked a popular subject
Donald Trump
And why we got him as president in the first place
Did you answer the question of why the United States has so many murders?
Why are we the only industrialized country without universal health care?
What pushed Roger and many others to pursue such greed and destroy jobs?
Why so many other countries have it so right and we have it so wrong
In so many areas
Jails, Drugs, Schools, Vacation time from work, women's rights, etc, etc, etc...
I have been watching your films since Bowling For Columbine
Which is still my favorite
I watched you try to get Bush Jr out of office with Fahrenheit 911
I watched your acceptance speech for your oscar
"We live in the time where we have ficticious election results
That elects a ficticious president
I wonder how many presidents are really legit
And the people who get them there
Will Jeff Bezos vote for Donald Trump in 2020?
He might since he made around 250 million dollars a day
From January to May of this year
Thank you Michael Moore for movies that make people think
Even if they don't act on election day

The only one who loves me is Jesus
The only one who saved me is Jesus
The only one who doesn't condemn
The only one who is my friend
The only one who won't forsake me
The only one who will take me
Just as I am and with his plan place me in heaven someday
The only one who knows the way is Jesus
The only one who looks for me is Jesus
The only one who forgives me is Jesus
The only one who descended and ascended with me on his mind
The only one who has ever been kind is Jesus

Days ago I died and froze and in the cold my life was lost, but down below beneath the snow my soul was bound by frost. And they're laid and there it stayed until the devil pulled it in. Which goes to show that good will grow, but all is killed by sin.

Beacon of Stars
There is always Light in Life
Let not the darkness envelop you
If darkness should fall
Look to the night sky
See the bright Light of the Cosmos
Reach out your hands grasping the Stars
While in your Grasp wish upon it
Pull it into your Heart
Let its Light and Warmth show you the way
Choose the brightness of Wisdom
Hold close to you all that which you hold Dear
Warm yourself upon the Shining Beacon of Hope

She felt hot flashes all over her quivering body
Her womanly passionate desires were aroused
Holding her in his arms had awaken
her feminine powers to their s*xual peak
He was hers as she had intended
from the start of her escapades
But unknowingly had succumbed to his manly allure’s also
His masculine powers had blended with her seductive ones and she was his Body & Soul ~
When he held her gently in his strong arms she melted
And when he kissed her she responded with a sigh
of adoration
She wanted and couldn’t wait for his hands to be upon her and her hands upon him
She wanted him to touch and massage her delicate pleasurable spots
She started to explore his manly body
To feel the ripples of his body and the tightness
of his stomach and arm muscles
Hearing him utter a sound of pleasure she knew
that he was hers
Could this be true had she found her love mate
to be with for an eternity
The faith of all unsuspecting women is:
“To be loved & fall madly in Love”

A Voices Call
I sit and wait that hour each day
When we talked and say the things we say
Again I sit and look at the phone
My love has gone
Has left me alone
Do you know I am here
Waiting for your voice to hear
My Love is strong, did not disappear
Your Love confused but I did not hear
I wonder, do you conflict feel
Have you phone in hand or missed me have
Do you fight each day to call me not
You love me I know but live with fear
Self doubt the problem in this now and here
I wish your heart would hear, then wipe away the tears
I guess the truth we will never know
You know my love i did show

I stand
here watching you go by
So unattainable like the deep blue sky
Do you ever notice me looking at you
Do you ever hear the whispers from my lips
You look so serene and happy going about
Only the sight of you makes my knee knock about
One day courage will make me talk to you
Regale you with tales of how much I wanted you
Oh, just to hold and kiss you once is all I dream
But a dream it will always be now it seems.

I came through your town at a different time of the day
It was getting late darkness was just a stones throw away
And God seemed so close to me his spirit was revealing
Through fading clouds a flickering star in the sky
I noticed your Wednesday evening service had began
As I slowly drove by
The door was open and a light was burning
I knew that soon humble people would begin to pray
I came through your town at a different time of the day
