No clowning around... a Halloween treat Odd joviality sweet... Candy? peanuts! No! salty crunch... treat "Try it" said the clown to me Marshmallow yum? peanuts... Banana flavor not salty at all scrumptious! Oddly appetizing merriment Circus Peanuts

Young is a feeling I don't feel often, but when I do it's here. With the wind dancing in my hair. Roar of the engines shift. Speeding through the night, Away from the hellish sentiments. And living is my nightmare, But not here. Songs thump and vibrate, From the speed demon. I hear no words or melody, But I feel it in my core. We are awake. Enlightened. Almost. But not quite.

Honey, let the ashes fly Into the air like a phoenix WE RISE

rain came down from the hills triumphant, ready to kill we ran through the soggy grasses, searching do you see anything? there was no shelter for us until you spotted something, or someone what looked like a shack down below we raced to the abandoned bungalow it was dusty inside and smelled of rotting wood you closed the door behind us for good "it's going to be alright" you said i don't feel good about this you gave me your cold, grimy hand i followed you to a corner, covered in sand outside, the wind screamed with witches but you assured me it was my wild imagination you told me we would survive this night minutes ago, we were dancing in the sunlight now the thunder rolled loud and strong demanding we hear its song i looked to you, the one i most admire i always have, even without the fire it's only been months, or has it been years? with you, i lose track of all time and fear that's how i fell asleep resting my head on your knee you let out a sigh, relieving yourself of the

from space, we come; to space, we go. rising from the deeps and the loam with our heads forever tilted towards the stars, perhaps we are cruelly nostalgic for the simpler pre-sapience times. of course, this seems quite foolish, as that complexity of thought drives us to even consider such preposterous notions as nostalgia and cruelty. to be fair, we’re not even sure if we truly are the most ridiculous example of conglomerated cells formed into mortal shape and set to course on this oft-opined ocean of meaning. with ourselves as our only point of reference, we strive to rise, ascending to meet the destination of our dreams.

A dose of poetry to connect me with humanity

No longer sitting alone, Now exploring my mind freely. Hand in hand with you. The parts of my mind that once frightened me, You now lead me into. Still afraid, I look up to you, Silently asking to hold back. Nut you lead me forward with a smile. The darkness that once surrounded this place, Now dissipates like fog. I look around the long forgotten field.. And see nothing. What was once here.. Dreams, wishes, fantasies.. Is now gone, Replaced by soot and ash. You pull me into your arms and whisper, That it's time to return this field to its former beauty. With you, I have new dreams. New wishes and fantasies. And slowly, my field brightens. In time, it is no longer black and sad. But full of life and color. Your eyes shine when you smile down at me. And we lay together, hand in hand. Eternally in the place we have created. Everything we want is ours.. And this is our place.

[V1] You gave us laughter, gave us hope For a world much kinder than this All the days you opened up your home And let us be your kids [Chorus] So we sing for you tonight The song we owed so long ago For the wondrous days you made so bright Oh, how we miss you so [V2] And we will not forget the days When you took us under your wing Your kindly smile, infectious laugh, And a soul that made us sing [Chorus] [V3] Quick to laugh but slow to judge You showed us what kindness should be You fed the hungry, welcomed the lost And taught us to give for free [Chorus] [Bridge] You showed us life is a precious gift And one to be shared in love Oh, but Honey, you left us far too soon To be with your Father above… [Chorus 2] So we sing a lullaby To ease our weary souls For the hole that still weighs down our hearts As we try to let you go. And we sing for you tonight The song we owed so long ago For the wondrous days you made so bright Oh, how we miss you so Oh, how we miss you so

And we run and we rush and we crash and we clash and we yell and we shout and I think we both know that this was no accident but a breakdown
