There are worse things in life
Than Facebook in the morning
There is always real life
Outside the door, moaning
Avoid it all costs
For it will devour your soul
Unless Facebook gets it first
Since you serve it up in a bowl
Feeding the beast
On a regular basis
Yet complaining about it
Enters you into a form of stasis.
I’ve watched
Day after day
As people go on
Facebook and say:
“Facebook sucks
Facebook is bad
I give my life to Facebook
Because the owner is a cad”
If you don’t like something
Then walk away
One of the best protests of all
Is letting silence rule the day
Yet alas
The ignorance persists
They go online and tell all about
There mate’s infidelic twists
Can you do me two favors though
While you are there
Shut the f- up
About the appointment for your hair
And swing on by the blog’s Page
And give it a quick Like
So you can follow all the rantings
That you know you like.

Small Town Drama is Small Town Entertainment
There’s something odd about the ‘human condition.’ The fact that paranoia and silly unsubstantiated fear can completely override logic. All this truly rears its ugly head when people watch Fox News, but its prevalent everywhere in life.
Its strange to me that people will believe what they want to believe when shown facts and amazing evidence to the contrary. Sure, I COULD be talking about religion, but I’m not. I do remember a conversation with a woman who said, “Well why couldn’t everything have just ‘started’ six thousand years ago?”

Where poetry comes from.
I was very good at creating from misery. The loneliness of life in an empty house I was about to lose to foreclosure will do that, I suppose. I always knew/believed that I would be better at creating while I was happy.
Indeed that assertion seems the case, but I find it hard to write those haunting poems I did before. "The tortured soul always bleeds better on paper," as the saying should go. Now all my poems are too mushy really share. Even the erotic ones kind of lose their bite because the way they come off as all nice and stuff.

Remembering a Wedding
Why are weddings such stressful things to plan? It makes absolutely no sense. You want a celebration of your love with friends and family in attendance, but it turns in to a huge drama-fest of trying to make sure everything’s perfect. But why?
Surely its not an ego thing. It seems like it when you watch the shows on TV about it. How people have to have a weddings that’s better than another persons. Its sad when you see it, but it definitely happens.
