The Development Of One's Patience

Going out of one's way to discredit another,
To depict that other as a fool and crazed...
Doesn't return good dividends,
With those kinds of investments made.

Especially when time does a flip flop,
And the development of one's patience...
Crops to expose those who are totally crazed,
In more ways than one to be seen as shown.

The Taking of Our Own Feet Out of Our Mouths

Say what you will.
Most opinionated people do.
Eventually,
They will notice...
Like you,
Myself included.
And a few others too.
The taking of our own feet out of our mouths.

Having one foot stuck there,
Is a quicker recovery than having two.

Once again,
To experience this...
Is a better teacher,
Than any picture can depict.

Concepts

I have no empathy for those,
Who use the media to depict themselves...
As victims.
While suppressing the lives of others,
To denounce them as either enemies and/or terrorists.
And all of the resources that sustain them,
Have been taken from these lands of wealth...
Strategically,
By concepts any conscious mind would describe as theft.

Selective Pickings

It is done all the time.
Those selective pickings.
Choices made in one's mind.
And it has to do with preferences.
An acceptance of taste.
Or a thought process that appeases.
And when it comes to what one reads...
A picture painted to please,
Can depict a thousand words.
Especially if a word or two...
May not be what one prefers to have heard.

With An Aging Smugness That Shows

Many wishing to overcome their feelings of inadequacy,
By imposing their insecurities on others...
Seem to cling onto an unchallenged pride,
To remain youthful for the rest of their lives.
As they depict others as being inferior,
With an aging smugness that shows to grow old...
As is noticed with an unrelenting critique of others.

Colour Of You

I can feel the colour of you
my brush can depict your face
my pencil the out-lines of your being

I can see the melody of your song
the song of your heart
the harmony that resonates in your soul

I can feel the colour of you
the complimentary shades in your eyes
the pantone of your song

my heart can hear that song
my soul can sing along

Even If Fantasized

How I feel and use words to interpret those emotions
Has nothing to do with you
And I know
You believe yourself to be at the core of my being
But you are not! Even if fantasized

How I depict my experiences with justified merit
Is 'my' therapy
Go find your own
And I'm hoping your therapy does not include agitation
With a mission to sniff every crack I walk on

This Sickness Like a Cancer Spreads

Antagonizing violence,
To convince they can destroy.
Wishing to depict themselves as powerful...
To enforce a respect.
But to others,
They just annoy!

Forming alliances with those just as wicked...
This sickness like a cancer spreads.
And they wish to rule,
With a dominance over others.
But that will never happen.
Since they are killing themselves instead.

Tasteful And Diversed, Exquisite Cuisine

There is nothing like a deceiver,
Who will attempt to have others believe...
They had contributed something done,
By a stealing from someone else...
Their originality.
And innovative recipes.

Long before they made a start.
Or actually appeared upon the scene.
To depict themselves as greater than,
Another.
Who for years has delivered,
Tasteful and diversed, exquisite cuisine.
