All America Bloodline Blues

[This is cross-posted from my main blog at FarrFeed. I'm publishing it here to see if this network is alive or dead! :-) What you really ought to do is read it there, because my graphics are way cooler than what works on these pages, AND there's an actual bull elk mating call sound you can play! But this is the kind of thing I write about. As long as you're here, enjoy! -… Continue

The art of selling books at a big event

I have over the last two weeks spent many hours at the Big E, the North England Fair that runs for four weeks in Springfield MA, as one of the CAPA (Connecticut Authors and Publishers) trying to sell their creations in the Connecticut building.

It is my first time at the event let alone selling my book, and I learned several lessons over the period.

Poem: New Age Spirituality

Why settle for a counterfeit

when you can have the genuine thing?

For the purpose of "new age" spirituality

is replacing God with the Human Being.

Working from a false assumption

that Man is essentially good,

will lead us down destruction's path

as History has taught us, as it would.

The fight for supremacy

of our human souls

is still being waged by the Devil

under his planetary control.

Humanism has its… Continue

Don't Want to Live, But Afraid to Die

Don’t Want To Live

But Afraid To Die

You have no escape from the trials, heartaches, and despair. You are forced to live even though living is painful and something you would rather not have to endure. It’s called being tired of being tired.

It feels as though you are a run down car with no more combustion in the engine to even light a small spark. After so many start and go events you have just run out of reserve, and your tank is near empty. There is no more… Continue

STORYHEART SUNDAY UK BLOG - CAN'T SEE THE WOODS FOR THE TREES

Can't See the Woods for the Trees

When I used this expression the other day at work, I thought it must be one of those fairly modern idiom. I was quite surprised when I checked around for today's UK blog and found that the saying thought to be around 500 years old.

Firstly though… Continue

When Night Falls

When Night Falls

When night falls, do you have a place to lay your head?

Or do you search for a cubby hole or a card board box to crawl into?

Maybe you’re blessed enough to have relatives or friends,

Or maybe you’re not.

While it is day, it’s okay

You can walk the streets or seek shelter in a mall or restaurant.

But when night falls,

It’s natural to find a place to lie.

While others are going into their abodes and shutting the… Continue

Caged

Caged

Freedom to dwell wherever I tread

Not confined to locations with boundaries

Zoning, districts, busing

Unleash me so I can roam free

To see mountains and rivers and trees of all sorts

To open up and breathe in fresh air

Somewhere where the sky is not blocked

but in plain view

Uncage me so I can go FREE.

Holding On

Holding On

Reaching, reaching I can’t stop now.
I have got to make it no matter how.
Stepping stepping, I’ve got to keep the pace
Grace, more grace to run this race.

How Do You Really Feel?

How Do You Really Feel?

Good morning.

How are you?

I’m fine.

How are you?

Are you always fine when you say those words?

Or are you being repetitious in your everyday greetings.

If you stop to say how you really feel,

Your morning greetings might turn into evening goodnights.

A Blank Sheet

A Blank Sheet

They enter blameless into this world, like a blank sheet of paper.

New, fresh, clean, spotless,

Just waiting to be written on,

Who will be the first to write?

Will it be Ms. Incest, Mr. and Mrs. Poverty, Madam Rape to name a few?

Or, maybe Sir Death will sign in before the others do.

Existing

Existing

Noises, curses, poverty all around

There’s hardly a moment when there is no sound.

Sad faces, stagnation, ambitions low.

Nothing is fast, it all seems so slow.
