Happy Birthday to Me!

 


This is my family 

This is what they do 

They call me when they need me 

But won't listen to a word I say 

They want the money, they want the luxury

But they won't give me ten minutes of their time

They pretend they love me 

So sweet, so kind, they pretend all the time


Do you imagine I am blind to your actions

Do you think that I don't hear the sigh  as 

You answer the phone 

Do you think that I am oblivious to your impatience

I have two sons

The sweetest one......gone! 

He bought me flowers on any day 

Especially on Mother's day

Now the two remaining 

Call me on no specific day

Flowers.....now what is that?

Money we could spend on us 

Surely you know this to be true

Did you think we here to love you?

Our mother you may be 

That's just because we need money  


But I am stronger than you think 

My mind recalls each and every action 

My heart is branded bruised and now cold

There is no more shivers

No more fears

There is knowing and seeing and hearing 

Endurance this is what this is now 

Numbness and nothingness 

Just a void of where love once lived 

You are free now 

Free to move on and free to live 

But know you live without me 

No more money, no more hope

I have learned money does not buy love 


Be on your way

Please go away

Leave me the hell alone 

I am not broken I have healed 

I have grown

Once I was disillusioned

But my love for you paid the price 

Now I see it all so clearly 

You money thirsty fuckery 

I bid you all a good day 

Please stay the hell away! 


Remember the day I asked you to pour me a drink

I am not here to serve you, you said, think! 

Remember when I wanted to spend your birthday with you

But you choose to spend your birthday with friends

Hope those friends, can help you out 

All the things I wanted to give 

You took it all so willingly 

Thinking me a fool 

It's all good darlings, so good for me 

So good for you all, so happy ever after 

Sorry insufficient funds!

Matthew 4

Matthew 4  A bible study for all of us.  Jesus is led into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.  But he fasted for 40 days and 40 nights and afterwards HE WAS HUNGRY. ( The Ark was forty days and forty nights as God cleansed the Earth)    Now when the Tempter came to Him, He said: If You Are The Son of God, command that these stones become bread' Oh wait a minute. Satan knows God's power, knows He can turn stone to bread, but He is not convinced that this is the SON of GOD. He does not know who Jesus is, he is doubting, why don't we find this interesting. Jesus is tired and hungry, He knows exactly whom He is talking to and says "man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. (For the Word is God and the Word was God)  In the beginning was the  Word , and the  Word was with God, and the Word  was  God . He was with  God  in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without...

Human Race Arise!

I awoke from a bad dream and I was aware I felt edgy, as I went through the motions of a morning routine, I found myself acknowledging that lately I was angry at everything. This is NOT my character, I am easy going, will get hurt but will make sure everyone around me has their needs met, so where was motivating this anger? I sat back and smoked a joint and for the very first time in forever found myself composing a song.  In fits of giggles I called my sister and began singing the song that goes like this: Diagnosing, diagnosing, we diagnosing, just diagnosing always knowing, we diagnosing,  can you hear us? Would you care?  (sung to the tune of Sailing)  If you lived in this house being one of the three determinedly opinionated women, you could well imagine.  The song died and suddenly I began to pour my heart out. My husband works away and I have NOT seen him for a year! When he returns home, I want him to quit his job and stay at home. I have my re...
