Array ( [sid] => 184269 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => unscrew [time] => 2017-06-19 19:02:23 [hometext] => i cant believe it. i wrote something good SOBER. i really like this poem. [bodytext] => ----------------------------------------
then i saw what a great story i could be
turn it all around like it is meant to be.
then it came over me like a plainly visible breeze
that just took Urge away and cast it far away from me.
i laughed as it tingled for i saw it on my arms
as it took away the demon that has all the fuzzy charms.
it scrubbed me on the inside, left me giggling as it warms
then showed me HOW ITS GOING TO BE no surrender, no disarm.
aint gonna be a scrap of giving up.
aint be a bit of giving in.
aint gonna be a need to bleed for
some dark and thirsty seed,
aint gonna be no battle aint already a win
regular aint no reason aint no lie
but that backwards truth says reason is the lie.
well, logic is a rumor AND the answer to your why
but i digress, quite far, yes...
so back to Why.
Why havent i had this feeling before?
why havent i just kicked down this here door?
why havent i admitted that im not the failure for the future is the final test on this grand and sweeping tour....
this blessed gathering of things
to give all ourselves to
this wretched smattering of filth that proves that
its all true
this random scattered rather haggard mass that glitters
but like glue
this is me. slave to the poetic but now, somehow...
unscrew.

The demon that has all the fuzzy charms is no match for your imagination! This narrative comes from truth, discovered by the questions you ask here to understand your motivations.
You are truly looking a gift horse in the mouth, and what a pleasure that you have shared a glimpse of your gift unveiled.

Flippin awesome. Man, I leaned in to rread it and felt like I DID unscrew at the finish.

Dude, I/'/m very happy you had that "epiphany?". I want to know more about what happened. I thought I was saved when I was 16. In the shower. I swear it felt like a good spirit had entered me and filled me with purity.

Anyway, that left after a couple weeks.

Man, call me.
