Decision Time

Decision Time

Depression, what colour is your Dog?
Black, White, or variable gray?
Who has dependents?
Maybe a need to feed greed
With what amount of speed
No wonder the mongrel’s black if this is society’s Creed.

Today’s Need
Keep it simple, keep it true
Jesus the man
Darwin the man
Did do

Make your shadow yours
Define, a true edge
Give away real “white dog” smiles

Hi Rod,
I did a test blog post and it did not show up on the main page. I'm not sure why that is. They used too. It is something we should probably mention to Midnight Starr, as she controls the way things post. A lot will get missed by others if the blog posts don't show on the main page.

Where ever my ute and camper trailer is parked, that is home. I am retired and traveling this great country of Oz. Seeing many great sites and meeting wonderful people.
