"Please Turn and Cough"
Today, I am a man. Work has not been good to me this month. The money supply is low. To fix this I decided to sign up as a student patient for the University of Nevada, Reno's Office of Medical Examination (a.k.a. OEM). My job was to go into a cold clinical room, undress, and have six (yes I said six) first year medical students perform a genital and rectal exam on me. They were under the direction of a very nice and kind 4th year medical student, but it was still the most interesting thing that I have ever done. The genital exam was not that bad (with the exception of the hernia test. This is where they stick their finger in a guys genital canal, right behind the scrotum, and have you turn and cough), however the rectal exam was not as easy. The first years did not have the "touch" that they should have had. It was rough, it tended to burn sometimes, and one guy missed by TWO FULL INCHES! He hit the bottom of my balls! Now, I am not a medical student, but I at least know where a human rectum is. I am done ranting, I will go back to my normal poems now, but I had to tell that to anyone who cares.
p.s.-Incase you cared, I got paid $60.00 and hour to do it, so it was worth it for an extra $120.00!

Faces of One
What is around the corner,
we may never know.
Yet we waste time staring in the darkness,
for a face that may never show.
We know the expression on the face for which we are searching,
for every moment of everyday in our dreams it is lurking.
The curiosity to find it cannot be rationed,
for the desire behind it is a deep, honest passion.
Lives have been spent in
valiant search of this goal,
and on the face of the travelers it has taken it's toll.
Though their search and it's efforts would not be in vain,
There is a path to the grail that is easier to attain.
So let it be known,
that I
declare this quest done.
For if you look in a mirror,
you shall find the one.

Leading the Way
Some people see life as little more than a motion,
they want to get through each day with no commotion.
A tear is a tear,
and a smile a smile,
anything felt,
should last only a while.
Life lead this way is not life at all,
for life lead this way is nothing more than a stall.
Some people see life as a chance to proclaim,
that they love every moment including the pain.
A tear's not a tear,
and a smile not a smile,
for each is a chance,
to grow and inch or a mile.
Each breath that we take,
is proof we're not dead.
And every experience that we cherish,
is a life that's well lead.

The next few posts will not be written in my usual manner. I will be using the blog as a testing ground for a few poems that I have been writing. If I have any readers, I would love to hear from you. Thanks everyone!

Pains of loosing
Again, the words of others say a lot.
I am over my past.
i feel the need to read these things.
These things make me happy.
"Looking back I have
So many questions unanswered
What once was clear is now so blurred
A future assured cast now in doubt
Between us was an electricity
So filled that none could deny
An intensity such as this man
Has never before felt or will again
We shared common thoughts
Your dreams I thought I knew
My dreams you did know
My heart was held in your hands
All my years of pain now had reason
Anguish felt to better appreciate you
My heart knew never to let you go
To give you all of myself without reservation
Your voice calmed my darkest nights
Illusion was mine that I calmed yours
Hope brought into my darkest hours
Life brought to a dead soul
Was it all just an illusion before my eyes
What was my misstep that cost me your love
Was I imagining something that didn’t exist
Or was something precious destroyed for fear
Love and compassion offered to you instead
Of the pain and anguish he gives
A choice I thought would be simple
Now made inexplicable to me
This garden I offered you in ruins now lies
Without rhyme or reason
Paths destroyed hopes battered
Bridges burned in silence
I bid thee well on the road you take
Mine shall not be so easy
Filled with the memory of what could have been
And crushed by what never shall be"

Boredem
To be board is the pits.
The pits are boring.
Staring at a wall is boring.
The pits have walls.
To be board is a part of life.
Life is boring.
Life hands you pain to end boredem.
Catch 22.
Work is boring.
Work does not happen enough.
A new job stops boredem.
I need a new wall in my pit.

Pains of Loving
The quipist pays homage too.
When quiping just won't do.
Use quotes to see the world through others eyes.
Use quotes to see the world through my eyes.
See the world.
"I sit in my dark room lit only by a stray moonlight ray,
Enjoying the quiet darkness after a long hard day.
I can hear the rain as it falls from the sky to the ground,
And feel the sadness in my heart that you're not around.
Oh darling, I wish I could explain how I feel without you.
An empty shell with a desire that goes all the way through
Like the man whose life is without meaning or reward
For you are the center and are all that puts it into accord.
When I am away from you my soul hurts with an ache
There's no way that I can be happy, I can not even fake.
For you are my everything and all that keeps me going
More I am away from you, the more I feel it growing.
When you're with me, I feel so special each and every time
So wonderful that if any better, then it would be a crime
I know that you have other friends that force you to decide
But you never make me feel guilty, intruding or put aside
All that I feel from you is that I am your number one
It makes me smile cause I am the earth to your sun
You are the center with your sparkling eyes and smile
So when I touch you, it is like it is you and I on an isle.
I miss you so much sweetie that I can't explain how much
There is such a loneliness inside of me for your touch
My mind cries out to be with you no matter what the cost
Please hun, please understand that without you, I am lost
I am dying to hold you tight in my arms until the sun rises
To feel the warmth of your sexy body with all its surprises
My body remembers your scent and how it drove me wild
That scent has a passion and seduction but yet is so mild.
When I kiss that neck of yours, I feel a part of me reacting
It's a piece of me that I can not hide with any type of acting
If you could hug me close, you would know how I feel
You react with a smile and my heart you would steal
I feel your kisses on my neck as I think of your lips
I would pull you closer with my hands on your hips
Closer and closer to my body so there is no room between
Feeling kiss after kiss as I lovingly caress those blue jeans
So tell me sweetheart, can you tell that I miss you yet?
Can you tell that I want to be with you without regret?
So until I am with you again and feel your warmth to mine
I will miss you and look forward to the time when we dine."
