Poem/Artistic Stories

  • Moving along

    Sunday, April 17, 2011 | A Poem/Artistic story

    Two years ago, a man who I considered a friend and lover, left my life once again.
    He had used me until he could restart his relationship with the woman who he had broken up with. He stuck around for 5 months. Then abruptly told me he was going back to her. I was devastated, as I couldn't understand that he had done this three times in 30 years. The situation was a little different each time. I...

  • This song reminds me of my own desperation and surrender.

    Saturday, April 23, 2011 | A Poem/Artistic story

     SEAL: Love's Divine lyrics
    Songwriters: Batson, Mark; Samuel, Sealhenri;
    There the rainstorm came over me
    And I felt my spirit break
    I had lost all of my belief you see
    And realized my mistake
    But time threw a prayer to me
    And all around me became still
    I need love, love's divine
    Please forgive me now
    I see that I've been blind
    Give me love, love is what I need
    To help me know my name
    I nee...

  • The Gee Chee

    Thursday, April 4, 2013

    It was dusk, the sun was going down, and the vast, beautiful plains were turning a dark yellowish color more and more as the light slowly slinked down the horizon.
    The Reservation was quiet, peaceful like a pool of water untouched by either man or the wind and it was just like any other dusk that the Indians had seen more times than to count.
    However…there goes around a folktale of somethi...

  • The Gee Chee Part I

    Thursday, April 4, 2013


    It began some 10 years back, it was a slow, quiet noon day in the office when suddenly the phone rang and burst me out of my daydream. I picked it up.
    “Hello?” I said.
    “John.” The voice responded “It’s Andrew, earlier someone reported a truck left near some trees on the gravel road heading west. I just found it.”
    “I’m on my way.” I said...

  • The Gee Chee Part II

    Saturday, April 6, 2013

    About 2 weeks had gone by, the reports of the incident were still on my desk and as much as I tried looking through a few new reports to get my mind off of it I just couldn’t ignore this one in particular.
    The autopsy had come back for the poor fellow trapped in the truck, he had died of terminal dehydration and the coroner’s notes also said he was incredibly malnourished and underwei...

  • The Gee Chee Part III

    Monday, April 8, 2013

    I had gone into town to post some flyers as well as give my card to a few cashiers, clerks, and managers around the local convenience stores as well as the town post office and bank. I was sure that someone would come forward especially after the case had made a considerable mention in the newspaper, unfortunately no one had come forward with any kind of real information other than a possible sus...

  • The Gee Chee Part IV

    Friday, April 12, 2013

    I was not sure if the old man was giving me a clue to a suspect or was just telling some story just so I would listen to him talk the day away. However…his face was not the carefree one when I had walked into the room but rather a more concerned one with a hint of fear in it. I decided to give his word a chance, so I asked….
    “Sir, what is a “Gee Chee”?”
    The o...

  • The Gee Chee Part VII

    Tuesday, April 30, 2013 | A Poem/Artistic story

    I got out of the car to get a closer look, it was a doe…from what I could make out of furry, mangled mess.
    It looked as if a semi had ran it right down, on the other hand it looks as if a bear got hold of it and mauled it badly…I honestly couldn’t make out the difference between either scenario here.
    Upon further inspection this deer wasn’t simply ran down, there were in...

    SUNSHINE LLULLABY
    HIGH LIKE BLUE SKIES
    SHE IS DIVINE
    SERENE AND SHY
    APPLE OF MY EYES
    HER LOVE NEVER DIES
    SHE IS DELIGHT
    I HATE WHEN SHE CRIES
    she is perfectly flawed
