Changing Faces of Me Michael Casey

 



the cool one is wearing the hat

























I tend to take quick snaps or annoy my girls for a quick snap

A  posed selfie is  now real, so that's why I look as I do

You decide what kind of photo do I make

If you want a posed writer with face on his chin, then you'll never get that

As it makes me want to reach for the sick bucket

bus pass photo 30 years  ago maybe

And This makes my Life Perfect

And This makes my Life Perfect ©

By

Michael Casey

So, all I have to do is follow the plan, and I’ll touch my toes again.

If I buy this book and read it religiously I’ll be truly free.

There is of course the Tshirt too, that’s free if I subscribe to the Podcast

Then there are seminars, and meetings, and we have a special greeting

For only $500 we’ll be so hip and groovy, and a full 1% donation to Charity

So now I feel I’m in with the In crowd, and my Life will be so meaningful

I’ll have a glow, because I’m so fit

But if you believe any of this then frankly

you are worshipping a bucket of S**T

Come on Wake up, don’t Woke Up

You have fallen for the 3 card trick

Why spend all your hard earned cash on any of this

All that cash, and all it does is give you a rash

Rashly running to the New Life, having no time for Reality

Sorry I’ll miss you, I have to go to this seminar there

And I’m struggling to find the air fare, buddy can you spare a million dimes

I’ll pay you back I promise, once I finish this course my life will be richer

And then, and then I’ll pay you back, but lend me more for the Online  bit

And yes folks it’s all a crock of S**T

Think for yourself, talk to Pete over the fence, or Pat in the steet

Talk with Tom, Dick or Harry and Gay Larry, and Liz the Lesbian too

Talk to Don the toilet cleaner at the Gym

Ask hairy Mary down the store

Ask and ask again

Speak to the Virgin, not Mary, though she is a good listener too

But Veronica the Virgin, the mother of ten, who drives a school bus

She bought if cheap to drive her brood about

Ask Den too, who always did the dirty with Veronica the Virgin

He was a lonely child and swore he’d have a baseball team of kids

And when he met Veronica a single child herself, she agreed

So 1st base, 2nd base, 3rd base, 4th base and repeated home runs later

Veronica and Den were no longer but a dozen, and they say its cheaper

That way, by the dozen

But the point is why pay for boring vacuous rubbish

When you can get free opinions from family and friends

And save your money for Walmart bargains instead

As if these Life Coaches have ever had a real job

As if they really care about you, just their fake tans and teeth

And stock options as they fleece you and me, and laugh all the way

To their Cayman island bank

You have your priest or rabbi or wise Wanda the street walker

Wanda has seen life from many positions, and her advice

Normally from a park bench as she sobers up

Is real advice hard won, very hard won, but it is real

Not fake or imaginary, even if it is don’t be like me, do the opposite

Do you want to join the Selfie crew, or really selfish

I’m all right Jack as I’m conning you, out of your hard earnt money

Do you really want to be like a perma-tanned homes abroad sales agent

You have choices in life, and who really cares about you

Your Priest, your family and your community

So, get some reality and don’t waste your cash on programmes

Switch them off with your remote, and vote with your feet

And if things are really bad, buy a ticket to ride, and shake the dust off

And try your luck someplace else

You don’t need any sales pitch, just hitch your wagon

And follow the stars, in the sky, nowhere else

And take yourself to the Promised Land, that you decide for yourself

In the end the only person you can trust is yourself

So, listen to the toilet cleaner, listen to everybody

But you decide what’s best for you

So, spend spare money on a better diet and walking shoes

And if you can spare a dime, put it in the Charity box

Not in some Cayman island account

And this is free advice, which may not claim to change your life

But if it does, don’t thank me, thank the toilet cleaner

****. so my famine is over here’s a new piece, and hello to Shaffi who the office girl thought was a Lazy Scruffy Indian when in fact he taught Consultants ho to use lasers in surgery

checking out my scars

checking out my scars

somebody looking at my scars from years ago

Yes it was planned as a Triple

But 6 months later at a review I was told 4 grafts, hence quadruple

So I'm not confused or lying to you

I get people sending rubbish with people on hospital beds 

I'm dying, send me etc

And they are lying, and I delete them

Bekino Faso seems to be a cottage industry in it

Just had a builder at my door asking water

Could have killed me carrying it

so I'm still fuming at that

Never let a stranger in your house ever

even if he is innocent in this case

because you never know

anyway no new story today either

If I had software I could rattle off a tale or two

but I still dream of being The Great Dictator

which was a Charlie Chaplin film

go watch it

yesterday's sea side was from Brighton

a gang of 6 are there painting the town a nice shade of pink

my 2 daughters and their friends

Spotted Russia reading a Russia Translation of Butcher Baker Undertaker

over on Wordpress so hello to them

I can recognise my name in Cyrillic alphabet now

I hope they like the story

It has hidden depths if you bother to read to the end

I am not Shakespeare but I am a Dickens of a writer

ok don't shoot me Tolstoy

the litter of study covers half of the room, a table full of 1/2 opened books

my small daughter is doing her  A levels

On her return from Brighton she'll attack them again

Though when Totoro our cat sneaks in she wipes her bum on Geography

Soil erosion maybe

Then she hides  under the spare wooden chair where the big ted lives

Before climbing on the windowsill  to pose like an Amsterdam lady

If I could draw then you'd get drawings too

That's why my backup site is Cartoons Made from Words

I have this site here, then 2 backups on Blogger

Then Wordpress for people who have never heard of Blogger

Wordpress has more Translations, pasted in and files to download

And yes because I started in computers  in 1978, 43 years ago

I believe in backup and safety

And multiple emails just to store files

I did get my girls to draw front cover designs of BBU and 300 and not OUT

years ago, because they can draw, if they had time I'd rope them in

As a cartoon with each story would be good

One artist we know has now graduated in Media and is now a male model

Though I'll always remind him, I got him to paint my old bathroom walls

Or find Michael's Bathroom on the sites and read how I did it

and yes the Breadknife bit is true

I remember rubbish and extrapolate it

If I could only remember coding as they call it nowadays

I'd be far richer  instead of a donkey in a computer room

I have moved mountains of paper in my life

That's where the muscles come from

And the word muscles has reminded my of GlenBay in Kerry and my aunty Delia

So that'd be another story

That's how my brain works

I don't want to forget anything, I want to observe everything

Jim Reeves has started on my Jukebox on the PC so that's another memory

It would be nice if folks enjoyed or actually read everything

Or will my words be burned on a fire just as "Rosebud" was?

One last thought as Kdrama is calling me

Would a publisher prefer everything, not just the stories

and how do you recognise a good tradesman

Because they glide like a Ballet Dancer

discuss




Triple or Quadruple?

Triple or Quadruple? Well my 10 year anniversary is coming up I was told prior to my op it would be a triple BUT when I had a 6 month review...
