BE STILL

stop giving me indigestion by twelve point measures
prudes -- hypocrites
all up in my business
to all my advocates -- I say farewell
to all my bogus cronies -- I say go to hell
naw -- I take that back
you've been like gadflies
are you sadder -- wiser
for proclaiming me -- defective?
who are you to rate His work?
yes it hurt
but this lemon refuses to let it sour me
your forked-tongue barbs
slightly pierced - gouged but never severed
this I leave for you -- take it
my soul-less remains
study it
when you finally know
what I've come to understand
look to the stars
the one blinking -- winking
will be me
just a smile and a wave will suffice
I will forgive
I will finally
be still

NOTICE BOARD

Hi SPT readers. I haven't posted anything new in several months. I don't want to post about political issues so until I'm inspired with something new or finish a story ....

Feel free to post comments about something you have read at SPT because I do like hearing from my readers even if it is just a hello. I don't put up my email address because I already get mail from people trying to sell me Viagra which goes straight to the Junk box. :) I do receive notification when someone has made a comment at SPT and I will respond as soon as I can. Thank you for visiting. -S

The Agenda-Civil Rights

Support for the LGBT Community: While we have come a long way since the Stonewall riots in 1969, we still have a lot of work to do. Too often, the issue of LGBT rights is exploited by those seeking to divide us. But at its core, this issue is about who we are as Americans. It's about whether this nation is going to live up to its founding promise of equality by treating all its citizens with dignity and respect. Federal law should not discriminate in any way against gay and lesbian couples. ... young & old, rich & poor, democrat & republican, black white hispanic asian native american gay straight disable and not disable ... we are and always will be the United States of America. --Barack Obama, (More)
