Show Me

No more words
No more promises
Show me

Actions speak louder than words
always saying what will be
but never making it so

No more words
No more promises
Show me

All talk and no action
Time is running out
less talk more action
should be your plan

No more words
No more promises
Show me

Let your actions
speak for themselves
Let me see what you alone
can do

Show me
No more promises
No more words

Please Hold



Your call is important to us, please hold
sounds like a lie.
I've heard it far too many times.
Nothing has changed.
The static state remains the same.

Your call is important to us, please hold.
Has it been minutes, months or years?
I can no longer tell.
I've been on hold so long
I can't even hear what passes for music
in this place.

Your call is important to us, please hold.
How much longer should I wait?
I need my issue fixed
but limbo is where I seem destined to wait.
Nothing has changed.
How long is this supposed to take?

Your call is important to us, please hold.
Mechanical , perfunctory, reassurance that eventually
what I need will be resolved.
I hold on because I want to
but I am losing hope
It's the same flat note
I've heard it far too many times.
Nothing has changed.
The static state remains the same.

Your call is important to us, please hold
sounds like a lie.

Promises of Tomorrow

Promises of tomorrow
help get me through today.
a vast expanse of knowledge
soon will be underway.

Activities abound
Holidays surround
Friendships revisited
Emotions overwhelm

Working my fingers to the bone
It's the American way.

Creativity in many forms
gives me much to say.
