The Power of Words
Oratory makes power
The power of words
An eloquence of speech
Combined with fluency of ideas
Charisma confounds rhetoric
Or expands it
into a force for good or ill
Oratory moves mountains
Moves the masses
There is a power to words
Declamatory speeches
laced with anaphora
Sing to the soul
Words written on the page
Erudite compelling full of truisms
Words of power but which rendition
The eloquence of oration or
the seductiveness of written word?
Which wields the greatest power?
Or is all equal with the power of words?

Love like the Movies
We have this image of love, how it is going to be, what will happen when we feel it. When it doesn’t play out as we expect we accept less or move on. Sometimes we make the wrong choices. identifying love is difficult and we are taught by books and movies not by role models in life.
Trophy in the sky
Searching looking for something new
My whole being divided in two
Emotional and physical needs kept apart
Hard to do it wrenches the heart
Touch my mind move within
Share our lives like breeze on skin
Knowing in my heart as time goes by
Just another trophy in the sky
Deciding the straight or crooked path
Has to be the latter with a laugh
Starting off with tempting situations
Giving and receiving sexy invitations
Touch my mind move within
Share our lives like breeze on skin
Knowing in my heart as time goes by
Just another trophy in the sky
Stirs the hormones wakes the senses
But its fantasy there are fences
Emotional and physical needs kept apart
In order not to break the heart
Touch my mind move within
Share our lives like breeze on skin
Knowing in my heart as time goes by
Just another trophy in the sky
Dizzy dancing thoughts alit
Swooning surreal intoxicated skit
The players acting like you and me
Unable to be completely free
Touch my mind move within
Share our lives like breeze on skin
Knowing in my heart as time goes by
Just another trophy in the sky
Friends with benefits changes yet
To just friends another set
Sharing life more in the round
But less important newer ground
Knowing in my heart as time goes by
Just another trophy in the sky
