Small Town DinerSmall town diner and a cup a' coffee cigarette's wastin' away ashin' itself through a slow burn. Cherry pie on a speckled plate maybe with a hint o' ash from the last drag. All looks gray in the black and white, the world's dimmed by a swingin' lampshade deadened by the smoke. In all the places I been from pun dilapidations of London to the underground den o' blues in Chicago to the ghost town of Philadelphia's night and the crowded sundown streets o' Singapore I've yet to find another home like my small town diner.Small Town Diner

This is in no way holy.The words I shared with you do not belong in red and they do not belong in any collection held in any esteem with gold leaf pages and poetic verse. I've no time for anyone who stands there in isolation; refusing to challenge any of what I say/shout/hum.This is in no way holy.
You'd get on your knees to me
all too freely but not in any prayer I'll recognize. This will not allow you before some throne where I sit accepting those on bended legs with opening mouths reciting a hollow "Om" and filling me with disgust. You'd rather play it easy drinking down the wine

BurdensHow many potential loves have we walked past on this ash covered pavement that cracks beneath the weight of our hearts that weigh heavy holding the burdens that we carry? Can we truly hope to know another let alone another to know us? I count the faces as I pass, all the same in the end but murals in a museum none the less.Burdens

90% of teens today would die if Myspace had a system failure and was completely destroyed. If you are one of the 10% that would be laughing, copy and paste this to your signature.

That was also my issue with editing. I always felt it would be it's most raw and perfect the first time around, so I don't normally go back and edit. I'm finding though, that it's raw, but hardly perfect. There are always little tweaks that could make it a bit more beautiful or help the point get across a bit better than I did.
Also, as I promised, I am sitting here writing rather than sleeping. Which I will do momentarily now that the pieces is complete and posted.
