THERE IS SOMEONE MISSING
Home is under a spell
Home is empty
The flowers and trees look sad and unhappy
Their heads bow low
The little birds that live amoungst the flowers and insects look for her
They fly from flower to flower, trees to trees, searching for her
Marendah the cat sleep on the couch watching at the door
No foot steps in the house
No sounds of broom and rack
No sounds of water dripping
Where is the beautiful and sweet, lovely voice that fills the whole home and charged it love?
The door is empty of the smile that welcomes me
The voice that joins with the evening insects to welcome the night is no more heard
The voice that rise with the morning birds to welcome the morning is no more heard
The chair is empty
The bed is empty
The parking lot is empty
Everything is in black out mood
Home is going under a spell
No..It's not a good feeling, no, am not ready for this ...

Where's the Glory?
In breaking news, rehabilitated Republican Senator Johnnie Johnson (Pronouns: HE, HIM, HIS) called a press conference from the Men’s room of the New Orleans Louis Armstrong International Airport, Concourse B, across from the Ignatius Reilly’s Lucky Dog stand. The Senator had just returned from a sexual reorientation rehabilitation program in Memphis, TN after being publically disgraced at a Buckee’s Truckstop restroom soliciting sex from an undercover cop three months ago. He is a founding member of the Reformed Christians for Christ, a conservative, pro-family and ex-gay advocacy group. In the spirit of being reborn, Senator Johnson invited reporters to marvel at his plans for a major remodeling of airport bathrooms.
