Saturday Thoughts

This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.

well I managed to get through the pad challenge. and as you can see I finished the Love themed volume.

this will be the next volume for love poetry. (some themes I feel like I need to keep a volume for.)

I had hoped Serena would be able to to bbe done with her volume by now but she still has 3 poems left to do. that’s probably going to be done by next week so I am sharing her next volume as well.

I only left kissed by Verse so you could see it was done. I will probably not have it or crypts secrets on here next week.

while I would like to plan on the poll for my nect volume I believe that will be after my surgery.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 30

2026 PAD Challenge Day 30

my response is :

in my memory
I am always here
walking through the
ruins of yesterday,
wondering what I
could have done
differently.

seeing the broken beauty
and knowing that I created
all of this madness and
masterpiece, I wonder
if my life is but a mirror
to forgotten things
I need to remember.

color my art is in motion

I found someone who is more steady than me who is willing to do the inking. so it id one step closer.

My Response Is:

Here I sit for all to hear
Singing my history,
In hopes that I am not the only one
that learns lessons from it.

for forgotten history is repeated,
and repeated history is nothing but tears.
So, I will sing it as loudly as my voice allows.
I will sing it as often as I may...
And I will hope that I am strong enough
to keep the memories alive
and history at bay.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 28

2026 PAD Challenge Day 28

my response is :

childhood moments,
so easily forgotten,
skipping river rocks
just for the fun.

making popcorn chains
to throw about recklessly,
hoarding laughter like
the treasure it is.

Lyrics –


Don’t ever laugh as a hearse goes by
For you may be the next to die
They wrap you up in bloody sheets
To drop you six feet underneath
They put you in a pinewood box
And cover you up with dirt and rocks
It all goes well for about a week
And then, your coffin begins to leak
And the worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
The worms play pinochle on your snout
They eat your eyes, they eat your nose
As you begin to decompose
A slimy beetle with demon’s eyes
Chews through your stomach and out your sides
Your stomach turns to rancid grease
And puss pours out like melted cheese
You spread it on a slice of bread
And that’s what you’ll eat when you’re dead
And the worms crawl out, the worms crawl in
The ones that crawl in are lean and thin
The ones that crawl out are fat and stout
Your eyes fall in, and your hair falls out
Your brain turns into maggot pie
Your liver starts to liquify
And for the living, all is well
As you sink further into hell
And the flames rise up to drag you down
Into the fire, where you will drown
Your skin melts off as you descend
And Satan tears you limb from limb
Your suffering will never end
And the worms crawl in, the worms crawl out
They’ll eat your guts and then shit them out
And when your bones begin to rot
The worms remain, but you do not
So don’t ever laugh as a hearse goes by
For someday, you’ll be the one to die
And when Death brings his cold despair
Ask yourself, “Will anyone care?”


My 2 cents –


I used to adore this song….it felt like a poem more than a song .
