GOING IN CIRCLES

GOING IN CIRCLES

Caught in a vicious cycle.
No control over your own life.
Day in and day out.
Round and round you go.
Does it ever stop?
Can you get off?
Yes, you can.
If you step outside the circle.
And dare to be different.

 

 

FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS PART V

What a beautiful bird.
I’m lost inside the rainbow
with a white bird.
It’s flying around me.
Round and round.
Velvety pink petals are falling.
This place seems nice.
But so quiet.
The bird isn’t making a sound.
Just circling me.
Then it flies off.
Should I follow it?
It’s hovering in the distance,
as if it’s waiting for me.
Okay.
Here goes.
Let’s follow the bird.
I’m almost caught up to it.
Now, it’s leaving me.
So have the petals.
In their place
descends a darkness.
I could feel its thickness,
surrounding me.
I see a light ahead.
I see people from my past.
Like a dream.
Oh no.
More like a nightmare.
Tomorrow will tell the tale.
Don’t forget to return.
Or I may be stuck in here forever.

WEB OF LIES

Have you ever been caught
in a web of your own deceit?
A web of lies that grew
out of control.
One lie leading to the next.
So much easier to be truthful.
No lies to remember.
Easier on your brain and on others.
Stick to the truth or
be stuck in your own web.

CURIOSITY KILLS MORE THAN THE CAT

What’s on the other side?
Strange sounds are emanating
from the thick blanket of trees.
You can only see darkness and
the slight rustling of leaves.
You know you want to cross the bridge.
So you begin the shaky walk across.
The bridge sways with each footstep.
Should you continue?
You hesitate but you move forward
step by halting step.
You reach the other side.
There’s a loud crashing sound behind you.
You quickly turn to see the bridge
falling into the water below.
Now you are on the other side looking back.
You know you want to go back.
But it’s too late.
Human nature might have dictated your wants
but the bridge has dictated your reality.

STUCK IN YOU OWN WEB

Have you ever been caught
in a web of your own deceit?
A web of lies that grew and grew
out of control.
One lie leading to the next.
So much easier to be truthful.
No lies to remember.
Easier on your brain and on others.
Stick to the truth or
be stuck in your own web.

FLY AWAY

Does life feel like a prison at times?
Holding you back from exploring the world.
Keeping you stuck in one place.
When you want to be free to find
new adventures and people.
When I feel this way, I want
to break free from the bars
holding me in place.
Let’s break these bars and
try something new—anything new
that we haven’t done before.

IF TIME STOOD STILL

What if time stood still?
We wouldn’t get older.
We would look the same forever.
Would we be bored with life after awhile?
Would be less in a hurry to get things accomplished?
There would be no reason to do things right away.
We would just put off what we could do today for tomorrow.
Then tomorrow, we would procrastinate for the next day.
Let the clock move ahead.
It would be awful to be stuck in time.

RUNNING IN PLACE

RUNNING IN PLACE

SOMETIMES I FEEL LIKE THE BAT.
RUNNING TO GET SOMEWHERE
BUT NEVER ARRIVING ANYWHERE.

I'LL GET YOU MY LITTLE PRETTY

What would happen if all my viewers on this blog bought my book, The Dead Game, on Kindle or Nook for only $.99? It would become a best-seller overnight. What a nice dream. Okay, time to return to my post. A girl can stop and dream, can’t she?

THE EAGLE DRAWS NEAR,
"I'LL GET YOU MY LITTLE PRETTY,"
AND LIFTS UP THE POOR STUCK KITTY
(THREE POSTS BELOW)
OUT OF THE GLASS AND FLIES AWAY.

WHAT HAPPENS NEXT?
I'LL LEAVE THAT UP TO YOUR IMAGINATION.

KIND OF STUCK

HELP!
WE THOUGHT WE’D FIT.
NOW WE’RE STUCK.
GET US OUT OF HERE!
