I looked in the bottom of the bottle
My stomach began to churn
I looked up and down and all around
But couldn’t find the worm

The tequila was playing tricks
My mind was sort of fuzzy
I know that worm was somewhere near
He doesn’t want me to find him, does he?

I searched across the bar
I crawled along the floor
And still there was no sign of him
Maybe he went out the door

I staggered my way toward the exit
Hoping that’s where he’d be
Then reality hit with a sobering thought
The worm was inside of me

 

Happy Cinco de Mayo!!

Painted is this path I stroll

With petals purest blush

I am mesmerized within the light

As I feel its warming touch

Caressing, softly, on my face

I take in what’s around me

A reminder of God’s simple grace

And the beauty that surrounds me

For this is Heaven to my heart

When I walk along this trail

Where I can breathe in all of life

And let my soul exhale

It is in the quiet hush of the rain,

when water falls in a cascade of tears,

that we no longer feel the need to cry,

for the clouds have done it for us.

lovers-1194352_960_720Taste the sweet embrace

Of my lips upon your own

Touch my body with your soul

Feel my passion groan

Lost in fervent movements

Two hearts now intertwined

Locked in sync together

Our bodies start to grind

In ecstasy and longing

Still searching for release

Lost in fervent movements

Desires never cease

apocalypse-483425_960_720
Night, the blackest of day takes over

When dreams become terror, indecent exposure

Hiding in the corners, where shadows keep

Creeping, awakening from slumber deep

Haunting, with such a clever disguise

As flickering lights, fall and rise

Allowing them to dance with glee

Yet, as dark returns, their symphony

Does serenade my imagination

This singing, without provocation

Realizing now, it’s all part of their scheme

As I awaken to the sound of my own scream
