SNAPSHOT SCISSORS

The XXI. modern creations of the 20th century: Glamour, Fasion Week fashion-trend galas in all quantities. There are no World Shouts, the seventy-seventh Cannes Film Festival, and more and more unpleasant, superficial Janus-faced minutemen who are...

Ballad of the dead mind poet

A gardener of foliac prose, word eternally in bloom.
Beauty grown with every stroke of the pen.
endless genius, in perpetual rows.
A green thumb philosopher, born from wordy obscurity.
A mind sharper than the points he sets into play.

Yet, as...

need

Maybe,
if I align myself with the things that people need.
Then I might need the way people do.
And someday.
I might be loved, and I might love.

Maybe, someday.

But I spend my days thinking of the life I would live.
If I could just get...

Bella sumisión de saciada pacion, amando esa emocion

El destino nos encuentra en nuestros pensamientos tan vagos dónde no importa nada,



Mirando ésos ojos que me esclavizan y me asen desear tu belleza en el bello reino de los cielos.


Cumpliendo nuestro destino donde no falta nada.

Words of Encouragement

I see you're focused on you. Nothing is more attractive than being the authentic
you.

I see you continue to excel in everything you do. I'm proud of you. That beautiful energy you bring comes from the heart.
Those God given gifts can't go to...

In God I Trust

Be gracious to me, O God,
Because man tramples on me;
All day long they have trod,
Oppressed and want to be free.

My foes trample all day long,
Many foes swallow me up;
I am weak but they are strong,
They put poison in my cup.

I have put...

It Doesn't Really Matter!

There's not much water in the tub
Not even when its full!
But that will never be "the rub"
For those whose life feels dull.

A pond is usually quite small
If you compare that pond
To any lake beneath a squall
As well when rain moves on.

Seldom Is It Not Always

Seldom is it not always.
Found to find another way,
To say and do...
A few things to choose,
What one wishes to want.
Without being stubborn.
Or refuse to remove,
An attitude determined to use.
In the belief this keeps,
That which is...

City Of Broken Souls

The city is littered with broken souls
To reside among nature, the purest of goals
Some dream of vast fields of green
Deep in their minds, a vivid scene

Chained to the nightmare of city life
Fractured daily by overwhelming strife
Yearning to...

Daddy wait

Daddy wait I need you to stay. Don’t close your eyes daddy Don’t give up this way. I know it’s selfish of me I know you’re in so much pain. I beg God to give us just a few more days.

I ask God to touch you and heal you of your pain. I need you...

Bonnie and Clyde

Im not ashamed to articulate
what my mind can create.

My power as a woman lies in my mind not in my bed. Don't think I'm only good for giving you head.

Let my word be heard. I'm not the weaker gender. I come from strong stock. Not trying to...

Goddess

You’re a goddess
You’re a queen
Relish in your self esteem

If he can’t accept you as you are
Just remember you’re a star

You’re powerful
You’re beautiful inside and out
Make sure he knows this before you lay down

Know your self...

You hold my heart in your hands.

My heart is in your hand.

You hold my heart in the palm of your lovely hands. You don't see it because you don't understand. I cry every night, knowing that when I wake up, you will not be by my side, but in my mind, I have to run and hide. The...
