Bad, bad woman…..
Bad bad woman
She was the finest lady at the Stray cat Inn. She was wearing her tight black dress showing off her strong legs and robust breasts. Her beautiful face was seeking someone willing to give everything away to her. The jazz was sweet and sad tonight. I told my friend Henry, the jazz man. Play me a slow song, so slow that you will tempt the devil woman to me.
I wrote in my notebook. The devil dances at midnight and I want the bad, bad woman to see me. I want her wrap those powerful legs around my legs and for her to tell me. I am the only one. Henry smiled and he told me. I will play the song you need my friend. Remember Johnnie, the Devil lady never lose. Her heart is black coal and greedy. Lelia saw me whispering to the jazz man…

Marcella…
Marcella
I found a twenty-five year old storage bag. Filled with old photos and old letters. I went through them, one by one. Each photo showed me a stranger, who lived and now he was myth and tale. I found some letters from my Italian beauty Marcella.
So sad, I forgot her name and her face. 27 years ago, she was my muse, my wish in Monterey. We had California, we had free days and we didn’t want to own anything.
“I remember you my beautiful Marcella,
I remember my barefoot honey who love to dance with the Pacific,
who love to drink the tequila and loved to be kissed my California sun.
I showed her Big Sur, the River Inn.
I remembered she lay nude by the Pfiefer beach and she asked me.
Johnnie, is the soldier life, the life for the poet?
Please find something to do, you…

On the Bottom Looking Up
I was called a maggot once
Because I “liked” a certain poets poem
That’s right a little check mark with Stellas name
I defended myself and it unleashed fury like you’ve never seen
I was attacked
I cried at the terrible things said to me
I defend the broken
I’m on the side of the weak
I’ve been included in the lowest bottom dwellers
Bottom dwellers on a list of the greatest poets on WordPress
Haha I don’t think that is too bad
And I’m watched still
One time I could not accept the words of love because I do not deserve it
No one could love the broken me
The love turned to hate easily
Or dislike or something
Was it even love
So I’m a maggot bottom dweller:/
The fact is I would help anyone
Anywhere
Anytime

Nothing can be finished if it doesn’t start first
Don’t be afraid of failing as trying and failing
Is a testament to the fact that you attempted
So go ahead, take that first step, Iwish you bonjour!

Daily Prompts- Smoke and mirrors
The same old trick with smoke and mirrors
Misdirection and leading on the wrong path
There are many that fall prey to these tactics
But here’s a news flash for those in power
You may not divulge the truth, keeping people
Hostage to lies and deception for some of the time
But the human mind is gifted with a wonderful diversity of thought
They will suss out the truth hidden behind the deceit
The prolific harvest of your lies will wilt under
The bright light of truth illuminating the darkness
It will be knocked out for the count when faced
With the powerful force of enlightenment
