When words are spoken
Mean what you say
Truth is unbroken
Keep it that way.
–
Choose them with care
Don’t give into fears
Lay yourself bare
Even with tears.
–
Just use your head
Go with the flow
Follow your heart instead
Since it’s what you know.

Tater tots and insta-pots never lie but they do lay.
Porcupine quills offer a new definition of stuck.
Dirty filthy air.
Eternity can be relative.
Litanies of paperwork always creates frustration.
When fires grow large enough, only nature can put them out…

In driest desert
Life finds a way to exist
We must do the same
With strength, we will endure this.
Hope blooms where least expected

Please do not blame me
I really had little choice
I had to move on
I would have faded away
Need to be away to grow

Dancing long stockings
Warming all of my chilled toes
With each step I take
Spinning in rhythm’s embrace
Joyful laughter fills the air.
AAA/MAD 1/12/25
Crisp salty sea air
Birds rise high without a care
Squawking if they dare
Waves crash on the sandy shore
Sunset paints the sky in gold.
AAA/MAD 1/12/25
One single Kiss
Starts it all
Followed by more
As a tangled pair
Among ruffled covers
Unite in a shared passion
Together bathed in ecstasy…

Brainstorming haikus
In my current moments choose
Mind burns in my shoes.
Thoughts like rivers flowing,
Ideas start to take shape.
AAA/MAD 1/12/25
Love isn’t a strong enough word
Belief in the seen more than heard
Laid on the table
Mere facts not fable
While able
Undeterred…

Tick tock tick tock
The time is now
Tick tock tick tock
Fulfill your vow.

Tick tock tick tock
Don’t hesitate
Tick tock tick tock
Remove debate.

Tick tock tick tock
Moments arrived
Tick tock tick tock
You are alive.

Tick tock tick tock
Don’t miss your chance
Tick tock tick tock
You will advance.

Tick tock tick tock
So much to show
Tick tock tick tock
Ready set go!!!

What can you do that the words will not say
Actions speak louder each day
Kindness goes a long way.

Reaching high for the very top
Until accolades, never stop
When you’re the best
You’ll have passed the test
Without rest
Till you drop…

With your change
in your evolution
All oldest habits must come to
An end

One
fun
day, son
Never done
Even if I run
From the dawn to the setting sun
Exerting infinite efforts so I can become.

Does dirt become clean
After being washed up, or
Does it remain dirt
Can water change its nature
Is there a chance for rebirth?

Will horses run free
On never-ending pastures
Faster than the wind
Gracefully, they roam so wide
With joyful hearts, they gallop.
AAA/MAD 1/10/25
Harvest wheat dances
As the prairie breezes blow
Creating ripples
Under the golden sun’s glow
Fields alive, a vibrant show.

One
day
you will
love yourself
despite all your flaws
Only then, will you start living…

Voice raised in anger
Bad intentions are in mind.
Violence will follow
Feelings will be damaged and
It will be hard to repair.

Countdown begins
Then the first song
It’s not a sin
To sing along.
–
The groove and beat
Will make us dance
Moving your feet
In music’s trance.
–
As guitars scream
Keyboard is cool
The bass, a dream
Rock and roll rules.
–
Know where to go
Listen aloud
Gain your control
Be with the crowd.
–
Buy the teeshirt
Proves you were there
Which doesn’t hurt
Stories to share.
–
Until next time
You see a show
It’s quite sublime
I’m sure you know…

Your three words today are:
INDIGO
INGEST
INJURE
Indigo Skies
The sky was indigo as the sun had long since disappeared.
Deep night quickly followed, so I proceeded with caution lest I injure myself.
As the purples faded, I ingested the darkness, welcoming it.
–
Starlight darkness is a beautiful world all in itself.
Moons, comets, galaxies, distant planets all participate in a dance of the night sky.
–
After I’ve had my fill of midnight wonder, I start to fade and go inside for a long awaited dream-filled rest…
-AAA 01/10/2025
What is your mission?
My mission in my writing is to either emotionally touch people that read what I have to say or for them to recollect events in their own life that were similar.
Also, if I can help prevent people from repeating my mistakes, it’ll make them that much more satisfying.
As always, thank you for reading.

Sanctimonious Ringo had much to say
With his approach each day.

He thought he knew better than most
Of these things, he’d often boast.

Living his life in a self righteous way…

Honest adventure, fun as well

Better than the rest
Left out in the heartless cold
Many neglected
Dreams are lost within shadows.
Hope flickers like a small flame.

Where did our rain go
Winter seasons really slow
Now nothing will grow
The ground is parched, sky is gray.
Each passing hour, the sun shines.
-AAA/MAD 1/8/25
Someone that you can count on
Is precious these days
In a cold untrusting world
Where everyone lies
And nothing is as it seems
Selflessness is nice
Compassion is worth its weight
In valuable gold…
-AAA 01/08/2025
Fierce winds fan hot flames
Fires race up and down hillsides
Where is the relief
Devasation for many
Compassion is needed now
-AAA/MAD 1/8/25
You count all the words
While I’ll count out all the days
Then divide by two
The answer cannot explain
all the joy & love that we have

What are your thoughts on the concept of living a very long life?
A long life sounds great as long as those I care about are still around. Nothing is more depressing than outliving everybody and being left all to your own devices.

stories

once upon a time
and end happily thereafter…

I will continue writing
Until my final days.

Floating in the primordial gypsum of nothing
Silent without intention or any desired direction.
–
Darkness envelops as eyelids grow heavy
as deep sleep consumes consciousness
–
Awareness of only the thundering ocean
Desperately endlessly beating a shoreline
–
Troubles worries and stress melt away
With the serendipitous tide of salt water
–
Warm sea breezes waft in open windows
Beckoning in the afternoon sunlight
–
In a room sparsely large enough for a bed
Out humble narrator snores deliriously
–
I should awaken for I have much to do
But my dreams keep me in place…

Your three words today are:
GUEST
GRIP
GUT
Gregarious George
Gregarious George is the worst guest
Gripping his gut, clapping his chest
Boasting to the extreme
All claims, sight unseen
He’s a blowhard braggart at best…

Starlight beauty stunning yet refined
Her warmth and energy would not harm
–
All the hurts and pain in the world erased
With just a whisper of her soft suggestion
–
Her fierce femininity flows with her life force
Yet she is gentle and silent just now
–
Beautiful like the autumn moon
Glowing silky sunlight in her eyes
–
All the answers she has inside
If you’re brave enough to venture
–
Like Diana the huntress, she suffers no fools
With abundant cunning all in herself
–
She often runs free dancing in the breezes
Reveling in the cool soft grass underfoot
–
Obsidian skies painted in sonic cosmic dust
Softly light all sharing in their presence
–
Delay not, you must keep up with her
Before you lose her in the shadows…

With all things in life we learn
It’s no small wonder
That things are not forgotten
With the bombardment
Past traumas deliver us
In great abundance
Yet life moves on, as must we
Lest we fall behind…
