Making A Memory


Flint

Recommended Posts

Silence echoes around me

As the world continues under my feet

All these little creatures crawling

Making homes and finding food to eat

And I stand here

Feeling just as small

As I stumble and fall

Bombs explode behind me

But it doesn’t matter anymore

I don’t look back in anger

Since I don’t care to lose that war

As I breathe this cold air

I know I’m alive tonight

As I rub the dirt from my face

Dry the tears from my eyes

I know I’m one of the forgotten names

But I don’t care too much these days

For they never knew me anyway

I was just an illusion

But I’m so much more today

I’m a man, born into chaos

But I’m a fighter, fighting through the flames

And I want you to know

Even though I still stumble and fall

I don’t know anymore, how to give up at all

I guess you could say

I found a way

It’s not easy, far from perfect

But I’m getting through my days

And that’s all that matters

When I’m long gone

Instead of the saddest poem

They’ll be fireworks and smiles

Along with beckoning laughter

As they remember all the little things about me that matter

And I’ll look down on everyone

Looking after them, just like I do now

Just like I will every single day of my life

Lovely poem, Matt. Kat put it well, sad but uplifting at the same time. There is a hopefulness about it that is reflected in your

attitude I see day in and day out.

Keep writing, Matt. I really like it.

HUGS

The best you have done in a while - it sums you up, it sums up so many here at Lara's - but you mostly.

You are the neediest, yet your family leans on you the most!

      Time to get with your Primary Care doctor and be referred to a neurologist or an orthopedist.  It could be many things, too many for any of us here to guess at.

      Other than the Boy Scout motto, oath, and law. I use two:   When asked how I'm doing? In all honesty I reply. I would have to make something up to complain. If asked to explain further: I reply. I know someone is having a tougher time than I am, and I pray God blesses them.   I also recite this quote that I have tagged in my signature: Courage, doesn't always roar. Sometimes it's the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow."-Unknown    Saying these things daily keep me motivated.   Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      If this goes on, I am conceding the real possibility of being stopped in WM or somewhere by a concerned citizen who tells me, "Lady, God made you female.  I don't think you should be trying to look like a man. You need to return to your true gender and be comfortable living your life out as a woman."   Begin odd and awkward conversation.  I have been thinking about this this morning.

      There are many MAGA GOP types who are not transphobes, of course. Some MAGA GOP types are transgender.

      I'm hoping to read the next section today.  Many of the reforms they are calling for are good, such as expediting the military procurement process, and have nothing to do with transgender issues.

      Good afternoon,    I have a young friend who is vegetarian and married to a full on meat eater. They have two areas of their grill clearly designated for their different cooking requirements. When she’s cooking she uses tongs or chopsticks to handle any meats. When he’s cooking he respects her request not to cook her meals on the side where meat has been. They get along fine and respect each other.    When she attends our house, she usually brings her own food, but knows I will clean my grill to meet her requirements. We love and respect her commitment to be vegetarian. I love that she trusts me to make her comfortable when visiting us. There are ways to make it work.    Mindy🌈🐛🏳️‍⚧️🦋

      I was going to call it Numbness, then I realised well.. it isn't. basically, yeah, it isn't.   this only happens to me sometimes. I'll be lying down and my legs will.. well, I guess lock?   If I straighten them out, they will unlock- when I roll over again, they will lock again. this lasts for around 10/ 15 minutes I guess   it's not pins and needles either

      In this case the MAGA GOP transphobes Just my opinion of course
    • atlantis63
      so, a close friend wants to cook for me   the issue is, she is a vegitarian and won't handle meat- I, on the other hand, won't handle vegetables- hate the things   every time she goes out to the shop, she comes back with something.. a cake, a fruit smoothie, a coffee, I won't eat any of it. please help me think of something that she could make for me that I'll actually eat   disclaimer: you are talking to the most pickiest eater in the world. good luck

      I think there is some truth in this.  They intend to implement Project 2025, whether or not he spends his energies persecuting the Democrats who have been persecuting him (in his view, a debatable point) and does nothing else.   I have seen numerous accusations that the document is about "Trumpism", whatever that is, and is merely a vehicle for him to become dictator.  From what I have read so far, that is the same sort of truth as the Steele Dossier, denying the validity of a certain laptop, Schiff's non-existence evidence of collaboration and a host of other things, many directly from Biden, that are simply not true.   I will continue reading it.
