Chows 2

P!ssing off a chow
is like dropping a lit match
into a pool of gasoline
Have you ever seen ' The Mask'? (Jim Carrey)
The mask accidentally falls on his (Jim's) dog's face
which immediately turns him into a beast from another world
or do you remember the Tasmanian Devil
from the old Bugs Bunny cartoons?
These are a couple of examples
of what a chow can turn into if provoked.
Even then, they usually just give you a stern warning
by the most intimidating 'Frankenstein'
ugly face you can imagine
Scares the crap out of most people
but you never have to see that -
just love them unconditionally
and you'll never have any problems with them
Again I'll repeat - ONLY PURE BREDS -
All blue tongues and all black mouths
(unless whites or fawns - then lighter colors are OK)
I'll never go back to owning any other breed of 'dog'
They are simply the ultimate

Moments

Can you feel it?
Time ticking away?
Is it one moment closer to you
or one moment further away?
With all of my heart, my love
I wish that I could say.
The moments of our past
were so sweet, but they're gone
The moments that lie before us
are a distant and future song
The moments I had with you
for me will never fade
Those moments with your glory
for me, were heaven-made
Those moments in the distance
for us, I pray are true
Those moments in the future
I want to spend with you
These moments are so wonderful
but past and future, they bow
the time that matters for us, my love,
are the moments of here and now

Looks like a redu day - maybe something new later -

Drown

I know that you are leaving
I know you're going away
I hope it's not forever
I hope gone you won't stay
I've been building a wall of hope
surrounding my wounded heart
bracing against the day
I know we'll be apart
But I know a torrent of fears
will wash my frail wall down
swept away by a flood of tears
my grieving heart will drown
But somewhere in the distance
appearing out of the mist
your lifeboat is sailing towards me
with your face in dreams I've kissed
But what if I'm mistaken
to the surface I can't get above?
Then happily I'll stay
at the bottom forever -
drown in the sea of our love

Legacy

Living on Love, dying to anger
balanced on edge, life's a cliff-hanger
Raising up joy, holding down sorrow
I can do it today, but can I tomorrow?
Only with Love, of which I'm so fond
only through Love, will I see a new dawn
only of Love and it's varying ways
without you, Love, I'll only decay
Wonderful Love, wash away fears
sweetheart of mine, cleanse me in tears
To you, Love, I've sworn vowels for my life
I've taken you, Love, to be as a wife
I'll give you, my Love, to other sweet hearts
you'll slay and make tender even hard hearts
And when my life flies
back from where it came
I hope that you'll carry
my torch with Love's flame
Through Love, my dear friends
we'll all be together
I'll be kissing your faces
so gently forever!

Love's Life Won

Be generous and giving
with kindness love always
love is life worth living
live life of love each day
Love keeps us evolving
love clearly we display
in earnest, we'll keep solving
love's heartbreaks on our way
Some day all that's living
the dead and rocks will claim
that God is so forgiving
alive stones will exclaim
Love is just beginning
it's fame has just begun
love will end all sinning
we'll know Love's life we've won
- 2012 -

Come on, all you fish -
start swimming upstream
and start spawning that Love

Something About You ( Level 42 )

Do, do, do, dooo
dooo, dooo, dooo, dooooo
Do, do, do, dooo
dooo, dooo, dooo, dooooo
Now, how can it be
that a love carved out of caring
fashioned by fate, could suffer so hard
from the games played once to often
But making mistakes
is a part of life's imperfections
born of the years
is it so wrong
to be human, after all?
Drawn into the stream of undefined illusion
those diamond dreams - they can't disguise the truth
that there is something about you,
baby, so right
I wouldn't be without you,
baby, tonight
If ever our love
was concealed
no one could say that
we didn't feel
a million things
and a perfect dream of life
gone
fragile but free
we remain tender together
if not so in love
and it's not so wrong
we're only human, after all
These changing years
they add to your confusion
oh, and you need to hear
the time that told the truth
You know there's something about you,
baby, so right
I wouldn't be without you,
baby, tonight
because there's something about you,
baby, so right
I couldn't live without you,
baby, tonight
Something about you,
the way you are - so right
I wouldn't be here without you,
here, tonight
There's something about you,
the way you are - so right
I wouldn't be here without you,
here, tonight
There's something about you,
the way you are - so right
I couldn't live without you,
here, tonight

One of my favorite love songs & the video makes it even better

Hate Zap

Hate is their message
lies are their mission
hate liars among us
their tongues speak division
Make your mind up for you
tell you your decision
don't want you to see truth
with lies blur your vision
They're highly trained experts
at arts of deception
let you see just darkness
of light no conception
Such snakes liars slither
so low moral crawling
they won't rule much longer
soon to hell they're falling
They are just like satan
their father they're serving
they all will together
reap fire they're deserving
Don't listen to evil
absorb not their crap
love always your brother
fall not in hate's trap
Let Love be your cover
with truth overlap
at our Lord's coming
hate liars He'll zap

Your Feelings

Let nobody tell you
your feelings of Love
let no one define your
gifts from God above
Let nobody push you
towards how you should feel
you are the best judge of
how with Love you'll deal
Your feelings are your own
to share or conceal
just let no one tell you
of how you should feel
First be your own best friend
face up to what's real
be honest with yourself
to Love you'll appeal

Love Cross

Tell me why I care for you
after all that I've been through
after what I've seen you do
though you broke faith, I still am true
Your love took wings and from me flew
through all this pain, my heart still grew
no other love that I will woo
know these feelings are just of you
There is no one to replace you
will be no one - far less than few
I want no other girl to do
there just won't be another you
And though you may not have a clue
I've crucified myself for you
you may not care - or even knew
on my love cross I hang for you
The question is what will I do
with all this love I have for you
the answer is so plain in view
the answer is I'll still love you
- 2012 -

And I'll always love you - Bill

Drop Dead Lover

Be pure as a pure soul can be
see far as the truth lets you see
let no one belittle or abuse you
trust a few who might amuse you
Give all you have you can give
help others so others can live
when you help the others
help sisters and brothers
the others need brothers to live
Will all of the will you can will
make helping of others your thrill
help all you can help all your life
take some of the stress out of strife
Love is how you should live life
live life of love - not love of life
don't let doubt thoughts doubt in your head
keep loving 'till your love drops dead
- 2012 -

To repeat (because it's SO important)
LIVE LIFE OF LOVE - NOT LOVE OF LIFE

It's in your Bible & one of the keys to Eternal life

Toothless Tigers

The rich with each other
each other they'll sink
they scheme against brother
with no conscience wink
They think they'll cheat justice
their little minds think
but all they believe in
is gone in a blink
Best think that it matters
it matters for all
thinking is much better
than not thinking at all
All that they believed in
had faith in so long
all that they envisioned
turned out to be wrong
All that they thought mighty
were timid and small
their tigers imagined
had no teeth at all
Rich set the standard
of how not to live
when you live heartless
no heart from to give
Don't be disillusioned
there's justice for all
be generous and giving
with rich men don't fall

Perfect Love

Where's the reward
to find love that's true
if you'll only love
the love's who love you
Even those evil
love their own they knew
no reward in loving
just those who love you
Christ's our example
of what's perfect love
He loved those who killed Him
forgave from above
For kindness worth living
gentle as the dove
life is always giving
forgiving is Love
- 2012 -
Thank You, Lord
for setting the standard

A redu 4 U ( needs repeating)

Invaders from Pluto

No longer a democracy
shoved down to plutocracy
know what these words mean
as well as 'oligarchy'
People will rebel -
that is democracy
Plutocrats care for us?
Complete hypocracy!
That other strange word -
that word 'oligarchy'?
Gets stuck in my throat -
too few rule malarkey!
Restore our democracy -
at least, we can laugh
plutocrats back to Pluto
oligarchs we won't have
- 2011 -

Fight for and defend our democracy against traitors

Grading Goofs

The goofy love gadgets
of atomic age
wars without wisdom
these empires engage
Thoughts without thinking
without reason rage
kill without blinking
starved lions uncaged
Lame loveless leaders
dictate on world's stage
preach hatred of brother
distrusting they wage
Know not their Bibles
they don't read a page
their wasting our planet
our Lord they enrage
Where this is going
is so hard to gauge
who graduates to heaven
God hands out the grades

Keep

Keep trying, keep crying
keep teaching, keep reaching
don't fake it, just make it
for you - and me, too
Keep caring, keep sharing
keep dealing, keep feeling
there's a goal
for you to find
Keep living, keep giving
keep breathing, keep receiving
thoughts of Love
into your mind
Keep feeding, keep needing
keep hoping, keep groping
for words for you
I'll try to rhyme
Keep loving, keep discovering
keep growing, keep knowing
that I love you
all the time

Another redu 4 U ( just because I like it)

Two Women - One Heart

Two women - one heart
two loves - worlds apart
One is caring, striving towards Love
she's been blessed from heaven above
the other is shameless - living on sin
there's a hole in her chest
where her heart should have been
One who will blossom, struggling through youth
deep in her heart, beauty's her root
the other cultivates weeds for her vine
the fruit of her selfishness will make bitter wine
One who gives Love with all of her might
the other thinks Love is a reason to fight
one from within with grace will refine
the other whose beauty from without will decline
For one, I don't worry -
Love is her fate
for the other I pray for -
I hope not too late
For one, the glory
of Eternity's waitin'
for the other, I fear
I'll have to fight satan
I do love them both
for both I will sigh
for the heart, I will smile
for the other, I'll cry

First Line, Last Line (We Are 1)

How fast we forget the past
on Love how we got gassed
that feeling we felt in our gut
was just a constipative rut
We know better now than knew then
Love is so much more than a friend
Let's grow up - no longer pretend
Love is so much deeper at end

A redu for all of you - because I like it - and it's a good one

Choose Loves Fate

Is there any real, unselfish love
in this world's human state of affairs
anyone out there at all
except for their self who can care?
Is there anyone who lives on their feelings
anyone who can give and will share
anyone who will feel all the pain
any love who might so boldly dare?
I cry to see all of the broken hearts
the wasted dreams cause us to weep
and I mourn to feel all of the love
that's lying within us asleep
so much suffering wrought from madmen's schemes
all the hopes of life left incomplete
Is the dream of Love just an illusion
a vain hope we fail to create?
I pray we don't reach that conclusion
we all deserve Love's sweeter fate
I feel, for God, I'm on a mission
to inspire you before it's too late
with our hearts, we must make our decision;
to serve Love or be ruled by hate
Choose or the choice is made for us
God's Son soon comes through heaven's gate
Love's about, to the whole world, to happen
You know, Lord, I hardly can wait
- 1990 -

It's getting late in the game, gang -
don't give up or in now
Keep on Loving and caring
You matter
I love you -

- Bill

Love Unceasing

With all the high walls
and bastions of hate
Love circumvents all
past all navigate
With all of the fear
they use to frustrate
towards anger they steer
us manipulate
Past all obstacles
Love will transform
hatred into goodness
cold hearts into warm
From harshness to softness
to sweetness from bitter
from calloused to caring
uncaring to consider
From blindness to vision
from thoughtless to thinking
to being from dreaming
to rising from sinking
From hatred to loving
from warring to peace
with patience eternal
Love won't ever cease

Trying to create you own personal heaven
in this obviously dying world
is like having your apartment so together
while your apartment house is burning down
Of course we should love
and make the best of these last days
but don't mistake this perishing planet
for the heaven God is bringing -
The fact is that most people on Earth
are suffering and unhappy
This present time we live in
is being ruled by satan
and he will soon reveal his hand
by universal war and destruction of the ecology
Then we'll all see the truth
and the glory of true heaven
our heavenly Father will bring - if you believe
- 2012 -

The books of Corinthians describe ' the rapture'
more correctly the ' calling out' - when those believe
and trust in God and His Son will be transformed into spirit
and taken up into heaven before the anti-christ comes -
before all the hell of Revelations come to pass
So study the New testament and miss all the nightmares that are coming
Have faith - have hope - believe

Madmen to Mars

No longer from neighbors
will riches we glean
we soon will be passing
out of the world scene
Who out there trust us
we've gotten so mean
with all other nations
we're caught in between
No one will trust us
not even our friends
with eyes leery watch us
fake smiles with pretends
We buy a few lackeys
to dictators lend
we make friends with fascists
our moral laws bend
Let's build us some spaceships
let's start our own trend
when warmongers act up
their a$$ to Mars send
And when they all get there
hope their landing's soft
that they're in good shape to
kill each other off
You may not be laughing
at my humor scoff
let's all just start turning
our rage switch to off

Ascension Dimension

Be righteous with your life
live joy and grace unlimited
give all you have to all
love evenly distributed
Strain to empathize
for caring you must grope
to get wisdom be wise
must dare to dream the hope
You can believe your eyes
good things happen with faith
be patient I'd advise
reward to you who wait
Struggle toward the light
break through a new dimension
do what you know is right
aspire to your ascension

Lovely Demon

A pretty face
can hide the truth
a mask for lies and schemin'
Just be aware
behind that mask
beauty can hide a demon
A face of smiles
can turn to frowns
with no excuse or reason
The face you thought
that you could trust
could be guilty of treason
The face that was
so beautiful
someday will match her pride
In mirrors she'll see
her face ugly
reflects demons inside

Please Grow

You're angry and embittered
frustrated and enraged
your spirit is imprisoned
inside your mind you're caged
The depth of your soul's torment
you have not fully gauged
within you mortal combat
wars in your spirit waged
The crushing weight of madness
that swells inside your head
for you, there's no elation
to hell is where you're led
You need some medication
try tokes of kind instead
it's good effects are researched
in case you haven't read
Try to take life more easy
be at ease in your thoughts
be loose as you can be
accept the love life wroughts
The pain that was so crippling
that you came well to know
your mind's now free to let
those bad feelings all go
I truly wish you well
I just want you to know
I hope you find your way
towards love you'll always grow

Genies Back in Bottles

Let's extinct all things nuclear
all these projects let's throttle
let's put these poison genies
back in their evil bottles
All forms of nukes are toxic
they poison all the Earth
all life they will be ending
radiates all life's birth
All life on Earth that's living
will all so soon be dead
if we keep on permitting
these nuke nightmares to spread
High levels kill from weapons
murder numbers greater
low levels slay more subtle
die slowly and later
Let's round up nuke arms dealers
and put them all in jail
because we all are doomed if
this mission we should fail
We should ban things atomic
designed for massive kills
as well as these nuke makers
to whom mass murder thrills
- 2012 -

No nukes of ANY kind
( I'd rather sit in the dark all night
than die from a leaking nuclear power plant in the light)
