I am not doing Wordless Wednesday this week due to the fact that I am doing sketchtember. I am uploading on Facebook and into my deviant art the results… Feel free to go check it out.
I’m sorry but your story isn’t adding up Think your religion is a lie to keep my mouth shut So I won’t testify the crimes you’re keeping score of Why don’t you throw me to the wolves? I thought you were one You were standing there like an angry god Counting out my sins just to cross them off Saying that my tongue was too loud to trust And that my blood couldn’t keep you My dear, you’re not so innocent You’re fooling Heaven’s gates So you won’t have to change You’re no saint, you’re no savior Your revelations don’t look nothing like the pictures You read between the lines and don’t stick to the scriptures You only follow rules if others follow with you That doesn’t sound so holy only playing victim You were standing there like an angry god Counting out my sins just to cross them off Saying that my tongue was too loud to trust And that my blood couldn’t keep you My dear, you’re not so innocent You’re fooling Heaven’s gates So you won’t have to change You’re no saint, you’re no savior So keep your judgment for someone else, I’ve had enough And keep your judgment for someone else, I’ve had enough So keep your judgment for someone else, I’ve had enough And keep your judgment for someone else, I’ve had enough My dear, you’re not so innocent You’re fooling Heaven’s gates So you won’t have to change You’re no saint, you’re no savior
My 2 Cents – I get so aggravated at judgmental people. You can only judge yourself for your own actions. You cannot judge another for you are not in their shoes.
Many years ago, my first kids book was Pip the pup. I illustrated it with my own drawings and clip art. One of my young readers – Dante, asked for more of Pip’s story.
I couldn’t refuse him. Releasing December fourth is the next chapter of pip’s adventure… Done in the same style. My own drawings and clip art to illustrate what I hope will be a good continuation of a cute story.
[Verse 1] I must be the kings of gambling ‘Cause I’m no ace of hearts babe, as you know, mmm People say pick yourself up from the ground But I just keep on sinking, like a stone, mmm
[Post-Verse] When I drift closer you float further, out And I hate, yeah I hate it It’s like I’m the story’s villain And you are the heroine And I can’t win
[Pre-Chorus] I tried to say I’m sorry but it sounds like it’s your fault And every compliment just sounds like you’re no good at all Yeah I hate to be the reason for you walking out that door But right before I fix it, I fuck it up
[Chorus] Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more
[Verse 2] You’re the best I’ve ever had Hope I’m not your worst, but I don’t know, mmm Sorry I’ve dragged you down through every circle Down through my inferno Should’ve cleaned first, mmm, mmm
[Post-Verse] When I drift closer you float further, out And I hate, yeah I hate it It’s like I’m the story’s villain And you are the heroine And I can’t win
[Pre-Chorus] I tried to say I’m sorry but it sounds like it’s your fault And every compliment just sounds like you’re no good at all Yeah I hate to be the reason for you walking out that door But right before I fix it, I fuck it up
[Chorus] Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more I fuck it up, fuck it up Fuck it up some more
My 2 cents –
I can’t help feeling like this song is reading my mind. I often feel like a screw up. Whether I am or not. This one has been stuck in my head lately.
Last week was a bad one. I spent the majority of it down with a migraine. That unfortunately means that this blog suffered slightly, I try to keep up but as any who follow me know, sometimes it is not possible.
The Thoughts within will release September 18th. I am only waiting for it to be accepted by the printer, then I will post links.
This week I am gearing up for the Flea Market. We will be at Capital Flea Market on Saturday, barring any catastrophe. I will try to video the set up and post it.
I am now on TikTok…as Pattimouse of course. I post vids of my poetry and some of me reading. There will be no Monday Poetry this week, however I hope to be able to post the other normal posts.
Fae Corps’s Newsletter for September goes out on the first – My art is in there. If you have not signed up – Why Not? Every month the interns choose some art, some poetry, and some stories submitted for the newsletter. There are announcements, and who knows what else. (The fairy interns are a busy lot.)
Well that’s fun. We have a tie. Four votes each for gathering teardrops and fighting ignorance. Three votes for on my way home. Two votes each for crimson petals and thoughtcicles. And a vote for just verse.
So I have to choose the winner… But it is far less options. So I flipped a coin. Heads for Gathering Teardrops and tails for Fighting ignorance. I got a heads.
That is my next volume. I will have to let everyone know when I am able to publish the voices within.
