NEVER

I wouldn't

I couldn't

I'm not

No, never

I shouldn't

Don't ask me

Please stop

Not ever

I gave up

I stood back

I questioned the end

I held out

I stood up

I backed you my friend

And Never,

I'd swear I didn't miss you

I'm sure we'd not met

The lips that wouldn't kiss you

The eyes that never wept

and peace amidst the fodder

and joy that drowns the pain

Forever. It's better

but never, no never.

and tell me how it ends

hold me where it hurts

the garden your love tends

the sweetness of your words

withhold all your amnesty

for wounds I never caused

justice such a travesty

bound by human laws

and I can't let you ever…

but you say; "Oh, no! No! Never."

and gently you assuage me

My reach for you enrage me

And see my hope! Engage me..

in all you claim is Truth

You shouldn't

Don't dare

You will and I'll let you

You couldn't

Beware

of all that we've come through

Turn back

Be done

But alone is not better

lovingly tender

brought close together

Certain, I'd never..

dream of Forever…

"I opened to my lover,
    but he was gone!
    My heart sank.
I searched for him
    but could not find him anywhere.
I called to him,
    but there was no reply.
7 The night watchmen found me
    as they made their rounds.
They beat and bruised me
    and stripped off my veil,
    those watchmen on the walls.
8 Make this promise, O women of Jerusalem—
    If you find my lover,
    tell him I am weak with love."  - Song of Solomon 3

A Look Inside The Nutcase

So if you haven't guessed, this blog is about the Commune.  There are too many people that think I'm joking, too many people that think I'm confused, A number that think I'm retarded and several that think I belong in the looney bin.  It's time all of you made an INFORMED decision!  Honestly, this "commune" has been in my heart for a very long time.  It was not a necessity then, but now it is.  I haven't wanted to blog.  There is too much that cannot be said and one knows that you can always count on me to say it once I open my big mouth.  So I cannot write about me, not now anyways.  There is too much inside of me that is not pleasant for the viewing but it will not always be so.  I have always trusted the Great Physician and there is no heart surgery too complicated for Him.  I will come out whole.  In the meantime, I must let you see what's inside this noggin'.  I may seem irrational, but I am not. I may seem illogical but...

WorkMANship

I love men. I REALLY love men! Now anyone who knows me must wonder HOW I can feel this way at this time in my life. I will tell you why. Any woman will tell you that women can be awful to each other! Wickedly, horribly, vengefully, tongue waggingly, scaldingly AWFUL! I would rather be beat to a bloody pulp than endure the scorn, disapproval and mockery of most of the women I know. Fortunately, there are few that I know (or should I say STILL know) that have given it to me.  Now there are many men that know and will agree that women CAN be awful.   Women are great at manipulation and control if they want to be and there are VERY few things that a (any) woman CANNOT make a man do if she is really intent on making him do them.  She can also make a man VERY sorry in a way no other man can make him.  Yes, women can be awful. I have never felt the obligation to defend womankind.  I have never felt the need to make up for another woman's awfulness, or a group of wo...

CommUNITY

Image
My girlfriend gave me this Christmas ornament.  This is a bad picture, but it says "The Commune" in the middle and RELAX on the upper left hand side.  Obviously, she takes me seriously....or so I thought. Then I started talking about the possibility of cohabitating in a dome shaped area.  She wasn't so sure she could handle that....something about ADD, and it not being very attractive. When I pointed out that it would be fireproof and tornado proof and required less "land clearing" than a standard structure good old Joel chimed in with the option of building a square shaped building out of fire proof material. From there on the conversation deteriorated amongst us until there was a conversation about living in mud/straw huts??????? I LOVE YOU GUYS! SERIOUSLY! You're wonderful and I don't count it against you, but NOW I again do NOT think you're taking ME seriously.   You really think we can live in rural Illinois in mud/straw huts?? Do you REAL...
