For Abby

Vista Point PARIS France





You look amazing
in that blue dress
looking in your eyes
is like star gazing

your hand is soft to touch
your scent is undeniable
your smile does so much
I'm nervous so I ramble

We kiss on a bridge in Paris
i recite french verses
talk about movies
with weddings in churches

I know we're from
two different worlds
but i can tell
that you're like me.

you aren't trapped
in any other mans reality
so lets not think about them
lets forget about yesterday

no more dreaming
about tomorrow
i just want to know right now
we can start with tonight
ill make breakfast
and we can make love again
then sleep til noon.
I don't have to be back
in Tennessee til sometime in June.

  7. Put me in mind of Joni Mitchell's Chelsea Morning, "We'll put on the day
    And we'll talk in present tenses". It was a lovely trip. Thanks, Gay @beachanny

The 5 People Who Make Life Heaven

They listen when you need to talk Talk when you need to listen They know your darkness Let you know theirs Without judgement and expectation You can talk to them about how you see things They don't get angry or anxious when you disagree Trust you enough to say what they really think Read tweets and novels Never make you beg or grovel Won't allow it Remind you that you're better than that Lay some of their burden on you Let you behind their wall Feel welcome behind yours You feel each other with heart and mind Even if you don't explain yourself  They get you You get them These are the ones that make life worth living Make you love to be alive Reflect you to you Teach and learn Some days the lead singer Some days the band These are the ones You can count on one hand (c) Ron Kennedy 

On Killer Mike's new album Michael

  I'm sorry to hear about Killer Mike's loss and the struggles of his family members. It takes courage to share these personal experiences with the world through music . Regarding his critical acclaim, it is important to recognize that mainstream media often fail to recognize and uplift voices from marginalized communities. These voices are often overlooked or condemned to the margins because it challenges the status quo and the dominant narrative . If you listen to Killer Mike's music, I hope you approach it with an open mind and an appreciation for his willingness to speak truth to power. I would hope that his message would inspire listeners to examine their own lives and the systems that contribute to inequality and oppression. In the fight for justice and equity, we need diverse voices to be heard and amplified. We must uplift and
