My face isn't carved in a mountain. I've never been struck by lightning.
I've never saved a crying baby from a burning house fire nor have I over come my misfortunes in life to acquire a name for myself. I consider myself a writer although all I've written is only pieces of torn limbs of my distraught existence. (a bunch of poems)
I'm at work right now working on a roof in Loch Erin Michigan.
On my way over I stopped to write-in my composition book. I had to search to find a blank page. I was looking at the hits on my blogger page and I see some are from an unknown region. Do you suppose the Martians or watching me? I don't know what to believe anymore I'm just going to go back up on the stupid roof.
Another week
another month
another year
Some other day
I have to change my ways
Or things will be the same
Time to shit or get off the pot
Today, tonight, tomorrow
Weather always changes
So why can't I?
whip up a tornado
a hurricane
Or some controversy
Something
To go viral
Write from wrong
Or maybe misspelled
Has right gone?
To the left
Forgotten
To blame for fraud
Sometimes
I can't do anything write
But just keep on
And keep keeping on
I know write from wrong
Even when my pen won't write
And my pencil lead
Has been misdirected
And mislead
Has right gone?
To dissect
A poet
Is to open
His pages and read
Look at his vital organs
How did life
Make him bleed
My autopsy will reveal
Emotionally
Physically
Ironically
Shut the book
And know
This is how I Read
Scribbled out
Crossed out
Left out
This is my autopsy
In pencil and in ink
I've bled
Every word I write.
Stopped at the dollar store on my way to work this morning these gloves and flower apparel just aren't going to be right on a rooftop. I used to go to church on Sunday at Saint Mary's at the lakes. I would get up and read scripture in front of the congregation. I volunteered as an altar server God bless you Father Paul Greil .
Living week-to-week I have to work everyday I can. Maybe I should give up and go all in with my book.
Everyday on my way to work I think of what I want to write about then I get to work and I got to work. And it drives me crazy that I continue to sit here and think about what I want to write and how I'm going to pay my bills.
One has nothing to do with the other .
I just keep up the struggle . everyday-people-are-dieing-unnecessarily.html?m=1
I'm sitting on a rooftop right now writing this and listening to some Smashing Pumpkins I better get back at it supposed to be 85 today check out this video will write for food the movie shows my passion every roof you see is a house I've roofed.
Sometimes I smile
Then I frown
Sometimes I search for a smile/smile
But I only find a frown
Then I just sigh
And try not to cry
Because tomorrow I'll smile
If just for a while
Until worry takes my smile away.

Funny thing is I have the same shirt on today I shot this video like a year ago.
I'm still waiting
For something good
to catch up with me.
For ketchup to be fashionable
and mustard to seed.
See me skating on destiny.
Just you watch and see.
When I catch up to me.

One of Donald Trump's favorite meals is a well done steak with ketchup on the side.
Why is that controversial in 2017?
President Trump's tariffs on Steel cause Canada to put tariffs on ketchup president Trump's going to be mad when he has to pay as much for ketchup as he does for steak.
Which way is up
And which way is down?
Which way is Heaven?
And which way is hell?
Is the world really round?
Or just flattened out
and turned upside down?
Maybe daytime is nighttime
and nighttime is day
Or
Anytime is a lifetime
WHO's to say?
I have something
Called c.o.d
No wait that's cash on delivery
I mean COPD
Sometimes it's hard
So hard to breathe
With all the anxiety/supercalifredulious.html?m=1
Why did I say COPD?
I meant ADHD
Whatever that means in chemistry /it-is-what-it-is
I don't think write
But this piece of paper sure feels good
To me
Or not to me.
Take my hand and come with me,
I want to teach you about ADHD.
I need you to know, I want to explain,
I have a very different brain.
Sights, sounds, and thoughts collide.
What to do first? I can't decide.
Please understand I'm not to blame,
I just can't process things the same.
Take my hand and walk with me,
Let me show you about ADHD.
I try to behave, I want to be good,
But I sometimes forget to do as I should.
Walk with me and wear my shoes,
You'll see its not the way I'd choose.
I do know what I'm supposed to do,
But my brain is slow getting the message through.
Take my hand and talk with me,
I want to tell you about ADHD.
I rarely think before I talk,
I often run when I should walk.
It's hard to get my school work done,
My thoughts are outside having fun.
I never know just where to start,
I think with my feelings and see with my heart.
Take my hand and stand by me,
I need you to know about ADHD.
It's hard to explain but I want you to know,
I can't help letting my feelings show.
Sometimes I'm angry, or sad.
I feel overwhelmed, frustrated, and mad.
I can't concentrate and I lose all my stuff.
I try really hard but it's never enough.
Take my hand and learn with me,
We need to know more about ADHD.
I worry a lot about getting things wrong,
Everything I do takes twice as long.
Everyday is exhausting for me...
Looking through the fog of ADHD.
I'm often so misunderstood,
I would change in a heartbeat if I could.
Take my hand and listen to me,
I want to share a secret about ADHD.
I want you to know there is more to me.
I'm not defined by it, you see.
I'm sensitive, kind and lots of fun.
I'm blamed for things I haven't done.
I'm the loyalist friend you'll ever know,
I just need a chance to let it show.
Take my hand and look at me,
Just forget about the ADHD.
I have real feelings just like you.
The love in my heart is just as true.
I may have a brain that can never rest,
But please understand I'm trying my best.
I want you to know, I need you to see,
I'm more than the label, I am still me!!!!
