Final Indie Blog

Well, the end is in sight(even without glasses), and nonetheless I'm thankful to have made it successfully(in a manner of speaking).  So for any interested here's a link to a free birthchart(make SURE you know your TIME of birth, very important for accuracy of "Rising sign".  Quite accurate for most I've checked: Free Birth Chart
And I'll finish it off with a work of prose and poetry I wrote while overseas:

WAR

I'm steady looking out the window

as the gunfire starts to crescendo.

I know it's getting to be that time,

but the scary thing is, I feel just fine.

I hope everything goes as planned,

just gotta keep that .50 cal manned.

Weapons of destruction, intent to kill;

sit still, blood will spill, oh what a thrill.

In my mind I'm somewhere else, no need to pretend.

Over all the cursed yells I wonder when does it end.

I'm suited up, gear'd for war, on the right team;

All this death, damn what for... living the dream.

Why are we fighting, for what cause?

Clear my head, take a breath, pause...

Steady position, good aim, proper breathing,

trigger squeeze; all fundamental teaching.

I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a little scared;

to take another life, I wasn't quite prepared.

I wake up tomorrow, the war is all done;

many tears, many years, and nobody won.

Another day, another dollar; life is so short;

find love, and happiness, it's my last resort.

The grandchildren are big, now in their teens

I've gotten old and gray, and dying it seems...

Looking back on my life, a lot have I learned;

A decision I made, the tides they were turned.

Many years I spent doing what was necessary;

I loved every minute, but some of them scary.

Now here I am, a long time in the making

My youth in my mind, as I'm laying here shaking

For what I was searching for, I now finally found

Only hours before they lay my body in the ground

There's no tears in my eyes as I start to cry

It took long enough, and there's no wonder why

My spirit will remain on the earth, forever I live

Memories of me are all I that give

THE TRUTH-

Take a breath and listen to what i say

the tunnel you see, leads but one way

don't deviate from the path laid before you

and think to yourself what would Jesus do

the good times are coming, don't get me wrong

get spiritually prepared and stay mentally strong

i know it's hard out there for one like yourself

every now and then pull that book off the shelf

great words of inspiration and stories of old

hopes and dreams can't be bought or sold

stay focused on the task, your head held high

some things are certain, so don't ask why

there are those that love you, this is for sure

a lot of evil in the world, it's hard to stay pure

we will meet again, much rejoicing there will be

when this journey i make across the great sea.
