Flying by wire with women Flies ideas of faith Like a traveller’s temporary invite For a disposable use As plastic carried in a handbag To fly above the norm Becomes matter of place And decoration of a boring time Is done with something forlorn Pulled by family recognition Tight as the duck landing low Given choices wasted That life can be laid so Family rectified as temper, games, desire Work on daily phone calls Acknowledging the sty In a man we call it arrogance With a woman It has just begun In subtle terms answering commands Your woman And from the gun you gone Woken by a siren Games are played on high Everything to destroy Keeps the family on high As relative raked out droans the wisdom For all of their days A son is yours till he take’s a wife Your daughter is your daughter for all of your life Until just one day When script fails And a woman becomes A wife And you like an Empress That failed by your choice Of suitor to provide And to the world Why the wrong voice For Your desire on the downward path As you fail on craft Provoking What is never done But always achieved And in what they believe And why They stop you Thriving in ignorance They enjoyed To prevent you From denting Their established Void |

Sunshine We book a time and date next weekend and I will read it over the phone. I only have modem connection so I don't have VOIP. A lot of yours I would like to hear said. I keep wondering why we don't have some conflab for everyone, once a year but we could never fit all the words in. Take care and you are raising something that I have wanted to happen - meeting people and listening to them reading their words. regards Dave |

these are some strong words everything isnt always how it looks learned that hard way with controlling alcoholic who could create a scene for his advantage. his excuse, another to place focus on as not to acknowledge his problem. people arent always who they say they are just what they think you want them to be. choices arent always right or wrong you cant control what happens around you no matter how hard you try. especially when outnumbered. you can ignore and try to stay on track, but it eats you inside or when you stand up for yourself you become even more of target. you let it alone. they cant let it alone. people believe what they want and have you believe what they want you to believe. not to many good ones left and it saddens me to see what is happening to the good ones no matter how hard we try to stay on right path and not let all the hate around us get inside and become like them people have a way to make us look like it has so we have might give up at times and feel whats the use.after so many time being drug down, it gets harder to get up again . men dont like strong women ive learned that the hard way. man and machine have destroyed and are destroying all and for what greed and control sorry i guess this one got me venting i apoligize |

saved_by_grace This was AWESOME, Dave, thanks for sharing!! Take care, Becka Thanks Becka. I know my stuff is often over the top but I try to be honest. MGROVES Thanks Marsha Long time ago I went through an Accredition Process for the Home Office in the UK as a Voluntary Associate working with people living rough on Camberwell Green with a partner Vidia Narrayan. I spent 9 years although it was more management after that on a Trust and 2 Hostels in trouble. I understand what you saying which doesn't mean I relate you to this, it means I relate you to knowledge. Thanks all regards Dave |
