It's hard to find a play that's right for me to do. Rather than waiting around for the right script to come along, I decided to write one myself.

Colored Masks

You the people with million character and face

Absolutely in every story you find for yourself a place

Your colored characters even the best actors may find it hard to play

You're the best one in every situation and place

Your selfishness kept your soul slave

To win the glory of being the most appreciative you can make any mistake

The world is suffering but there absolutely you can't find for yourself a place

Only the world's bright side and its shining colors attracts your imagination for whom is your hard race

Hard to control your ego to convice you that all the people at this world are and deserve the same

But your selfishness has made you the hero for your cheep rat race

And every while you put on a different mask to play your new piece

And at every new script you choose a new role and face

But everywhere and always you take the best characters and place

It Was A Decision Made

Everytime I begin to write,
I have an encounter with reality.
Something within me validates with a scrutiny,
What there is I believe I am provoked to say.
As if to preview the doing before it is released.

I am often asked if I like to write.
And I never gave what I've been doing all my life,
That much thought.
I do not premeditate a doing.
It is as natural to me as using the bathroom.

It was not I that decided I would write.
It was a decision made.
It was not I that decided I would be creative.
It was a decision made.
It was not I that decided I was to be born.
But then...
Sometimes I feel a need to debate it.

Rockin' Chair

I'm older than I'd wish to be
This town hold no more for me
All my life I try to find another way
I don't care for your attitude
You bring me down I think you're rude
All my life I try to make a better day

It's hard enough being alone
Sitting here by the phone
Waiting for my memories
To come and play

It's hard enough sitting there
Rockin' in your rockin' chair
It's all too much to take
When you're not there

It's hard enough being alone
Sitting here by the phone
Waiting for my memories
To come and play

Write Erase Write Erase

this is what happens to this poem
when you have nothing to write
tonight....write, erase, write, erase

you are waiting
for an inspiration that does not come

you keep on waiting and then something comes
you write it, you think about it, you read it and you find nothing
worth the letter you assign to it
then you erase it and you are honest enough to admit that there is nothing
beautiful
not even a purpose, and then you write the word again, you ponder, there is
nothing worth its existence
there is nothing to grow in that word chosen
you erase it again, you write it and then there is this space of thinking,

what is it? you ask. what is it really?
it is this denial.
this negation of
what you are
that keeps you writing.

you stand by the window. Look out
the road. You see a dog, and it is howling again
to the moon
and to the wrong tree
it is barking.

Then I got the offer to play Buck Rogers, but I turned it down thinking it was a cartoon character. Well I was wrong, it wasn't at all. So I read the script and decided I liked the character, it had a good concept.

The play-writes curse

The play-writes curse
~
Give me a stage
and the world to write
give me characters
to fit my plot line
give me time and money
to assemble my script
that I may play with ideas
and work what fits
give me the option
for a sudden plot twist
give me set designers
who understand my mind
and actors to follow
whatever my command
give me wine and ink
that I may drink them both
in all my madness
give me your hope
give me this and a stage
that I may write you a play
but please I beg of you
before you give me anything
give me the opening line

I'm Through With This War

don't worry
let you know i love you

don't hide
we'll find ourselves soon

listen to the sound
do you see the tide rising like victory
listen to the echoes
do you hear the sound of freedom in me
alone in the sea of infamy
i'm letting go of the anchor to find the shore

i'm through with this war
i'm through with this ending
im going to find another one to write the story that we're in
i'm tired of waiting
i'm tired of looking at the mountains and the sky
while i'm standing on the shore
i'm through with this war

run foward
find the answer tonight

we're closer
this battle is the last fight

the last page
we feel in in our veins

One hasn't constant views.

I write, rewrite, edit, amend and scrap.
Each script comes with changed views and ideas.
Each script bears different visions and versions.
No one is constant in one’s view through out.

The Hard Way

Boys like you were born to waste,
You never listen to a word I say
And if you think youre here to mess around,
Youre making a big mistake,
cos youre gonna find out the hard way,
You gonna find out the hard way.
No matter what I do or say,
Youre much too dumb to educate.
One day lifes going to turn around and slap you in the face,
Then youre gonna find out the hard way.
Youll take the hard way,
Gonna take the hard way.
Well, youll do it your way and Ill do it my way,
And well see whos the one to survive.
Youll find that with no foundation
Or qualifications
Theres no way that you can get by,
No, theres no way you can get by.
Why dont you take the easy way?
Why dont you co-operate?
Dont just sit there and vegetate.
Do you want to end up illiterate?
You think that lifes a vacation
And youve no inclination
To dust away the cobwebs of your mind.
Now its time for confrontation
And Im tired of being patient,
So Ive got to be cruel to be kind.
Youve got to be cruel to be kind.
Im wasting my vocation teaching you to write neat
When youre only fit to sweep the streets.
Your intellect is such
That it requires a killers touch.
So Im going to play it your way,
Well take the hard way.
Going to take the hard way,
You can take the hard way.
Gonna take the hard way,
Gonna take the hard way.

Scribbles Transcribed

Some write for glory and for fame.
I write because I am obsessed
and wordplay is my favourite game.

I concentrate on poetry
Because I find it to my taste
and pass my time creatively.
I could not sit and watch T.V
and live my life vicariously.
That would drive me to insanity.

I have a wide vocabulary
which I love to exercise
Harmless but it amuses me.

What better way to pass the time
than writing formal poetry
I do not find it hard to rhyme

I’ll never be a household name
Which does not bother me at all.
I write for fun and not for fame.

My writing will not make me rich
I very rarely publish it
I merely write to scratch my itch.

My pad and pen accompany me
No matter where I choose to go
Though I scribble illegibly.

Record what takes my interest
and jot down anything I see.
When I get home I do my best.

To read the jottings I have made
which is sometimes difficult
as pencilled words tend to fade.

I find that if I persevere
for long enough I understand
enough to make it very clear.

I sometimes wish that I could write
In a clear and cursive script
If I had perhaps I might.

But I am too impatient to write
All of down the things I want to
My scribbling will have to do.

Thank God for printers and P.Cs
So when I post its legible
and you can read my verse with ease.

The feed back which you give to me.
I read with greatest interest.
And it improves my poetry.

My hand writing will never be
capable of being read
by anybody else but me..

I Write A Little

(Randy Owen/Don Cook/Ronnie Rogers)
Military mail call....
I lay out some paper, I take out my pen
Turn on my table-lamp and here I go again
It's time to write a letter, I'm in the mood tonight
Gotta find a way to tell you how I feel inside
So I write a little and I cry a little
It's so hard to find a way to say goodbye a little
But somewhere in the middle, my emotions interfere
So I write a little and cry a little tear
And I die a little, wishing you were here
God I miss you, can't be with you
I would kiss you oh so good
'Cause you're my only cure for lonely
I'd call if I could
So I write a little and I cry a little
It's so hard to find a way to say goodbye a little
But somewhere in the middle, my emotions interfere
So I write a little and cry a little tear
And I die a little, wishing you were here
Oh, I die a little wishing you were here
Wishing you were here
I'm writing and wishing you were here
I write a little and cry a little tear
I'm writing and wishing you were here

Goodbye Tin Terriers

Oh, you told me that the mystery was gone,
Oh, you told me that the song had been sung,
Are you so sure that we know,
As the images flicker and glow?
Everyone's waiting to find,
Waiting to find.
Oh, you told me that the mystery was gone,
Oh, and nothing will be sacred for long,
This is the start of the show,
There's a secret that's waiting to blow,
Everything's waiting to find,
Waiting to find.
Oh, well if you're trying to see,
Something beautiful, magic and free,
Don't think you're wasting your time,
Everything's waiting to find,
Waiting to find.

I fell in love...with you

I find it hard to believe you never loved me
I find it hard to believe you never cared
I find it hard to believe you never woke up in the night
wishing I was there

I find it hard to believe that this is my burden
I find it hard to believe that I left you hurting
I find it hard to believe that i never cried seeing you with her

I find it hard to believe but I know its true
My guess is that I fell for you.

I am Waiting for You

When I first met you, you were play hard to get
You better than any other guy I ever know
You break down my walls and barriers that I had been putting up
You made me feel safe and secure around you
You are wonderful as who you are
I'm waiting for you
Everything you say was perfect
You are everything I am looking for in a boyfriend
You made me had a good time in class
I am breaking out of my shell more
I feel a lot more comfortable
I just don't show it
I can't believe you are single
I want to made you mine
All signs you giving to me is so cute and sweet of you
I wish I show you how I feel about you
You don't think I care, but I do
I play hard to get too
You get what I am going though
You are so mysterious
You are everything off my checklist
You are my Mr. Right
I can't stop dreaming about you
I am see what happen until then
I can't stop smiling
I hope there is something between us one day
I know we barely talk a lot
I feel like I know you forever
I am waiting for you
I love you for you
You made me realized you are different
You will see I am right here waiting for you and no one else
I don't care what anyone else says
You are the one for me
It feels so right
I'm waiting for you

A Poem Just For You

Today I decided to write a poem just for you
So I sat down with pen in hand, and began to
Carefully consider in which way I could express to you
All the things you mean to me,

First I thought to write a poem about your radiant smile,
All about how you easily outshine the sun.
Or perhaps a poem about our friendship,
All about the kind things you do that fill my heart.
A poem about how grateful I am to have you in my life
All about how I thank God every day for putting you here.

But I decided to write this poem on something else
All about something that is a poem in itself
A poem that simply says I love you
A poem just for you.

Flashman

I'm waiting,
Waiting for you to crash,
I'm waiting,
Waiting to see your cash,
Waiting so long,
Waiting over here,
Waiting over there,
Waiting to hear you say,
You'll come back to me!
Waiting for the rush!

You're all flash and no cash,
Don't like your trash,
Gonna see you crash,

I'm waiting,
Waiting on my own,
I'm waiting,
Waiting to hear you groan,
Waiting to get you alone,
Waiting for us to meet,
Waiting to get off the street,
Waiting for my heart,
To skip a beat,
Waiting for the rush!

Tired of all your flash,
Get rid of the trash, and,
Show me your cash,

So where do you go to find a lover?
And where will you find a brother?
Is this the end of the road?
Will you stoop low?
So that I can grow?

Have to Keep It Short

Was going to write a long poem
but decided to keep it short
hope it's not writers block
or laziness and lack of thought?
But we all get days like these
when ideas just will not come
you sit waiting for inspiration
but end up sucking your thumb.
But I bet even the greats
had off days now and then
when they couldn't write a poem
but the next day banged off ten.
So that's the end of this one
as my brain has gone on strike
I'll have to do something else
like go for a ride on my mountain bike!

It could be a great script but the director is not the right person for me to work for at this time. So there are a lot of elements that come into play and a lot of variables, but more than anything it's got to be a great script and a great character.
