I believe everything in life is art
in one context or another,
self expression thru poems and pictures
that tell a story .... is my art


Richard Powers on Art

Art is a way of saying what it means to be alive.
The most salient feature of existence
is the unthinkable odds against it.
For every way that there is of being here,
there are an infinity of ways of not being here.
Historical accident snuffs out whole universes
with every clock tick.
Statistics declare us ridiculous.
Thermodynamics prohibits us.
Life, by any reasonable measure, is impossible,
and my life—this, here-now, infinitely more so.
Art is a way of saying, in the face of all that impossibility,
just how worth celebrating it is to be able to say anything at all.

Live simply
Love generously
Care deeply
Speak kindly
Leave the rest to God
You are the miracle, my friend
Just as I am
Your life can either shine a light
or cast a shadow.

~ Indian Prayer ~

Oh Great Spirit, Whose Voice I Hear in the wind.
Whose breath gives life to the world, hear me.
I come to you as one of your many children, I am small and weak, I need your strength and wisdom. May I walk in beauty, make my eyes behold the red and purple sunset, make my hands respect the things that you have made, and my ears sharp to hear your voice. Make me wise so that I may know the things that you have taught your children, the lessons that you have hidden in every leaf and rock. Make me strong...not to be superior to my brothers but to be able to fight my greatest enemy.. myself. Make me ever ready to come to you with straight eyes so that when life fades as the faded sunset, my spirit will come to you without shame."





~ Rio Breeze ~

One evening an old Cherokee Indian told his grandson
about a "battle" that goes on inside people. He said,
"My son, the battle is between 2 "wolves" inside us all.
One is Evil. It is anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance,
self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride,
superiority, and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace,
love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy,
generosity, truth, compassion and faith"
The grandson thought about
it for a minute and then asked his grandfather:
"Which wolf wins ?"
The old Cherokee simply replied,
"The one you feed."

~ Mother Earth ~

The Earth is our Mother, care for her.
Honor all your relations.
Open your heart and soul to the Great Spirit.
All life is sacred; treat all beings with respect.
Take from the Earth what is needed and Nothing more.
Do what needs to be done for the good of all.
Give constant thanks to the Great Spirit for each new day.
Speak the truth; but only of the good in others.
Follow the rhythms of nature; rise and fall with the sun.
Enjoy life's journey, but leave no tracks.

~ Our Mirror ~
The good you find in others, is in you too. The faults you find in others, are your faults as well. After all, to recognize something you must know it. The possibilities you see in others, are possible for you as well. The beauty you see around you, is your beauty. The world around you is a reflection, a mirror showing you the person you are. To change your world, you must change yourself.
To blame and complain will only make matters worse. Whatever you care about,
is your responsibility. What you see in others, shows you yourself. See the best in others, and you will be your best. Give to others, and you give to yourself. Appreciate beauty, and you will be beautiful. Admire creativity, and you will be creative. Love, and you will be loved. Seek to understand, and you will be understood. Listen, and your voice will be heard. Teach, and you will learn. Show your best face to the mirror, and you'll be happy with the face looking back at you.

And I have my head on my ear

But it suits me marvellously

And among the stiff-necked

I pass for one the prettiest

Madopar and Jellybeans
by Francesca Bernadette DiGiorgio



Madopar and Jelly Beans
by Francesca Bernadette DiGiorgio
"Shut_Up_Fran"

Fiery, flowing, cottered hair. Baggy Denim Dungarees with eleven pockets, each filled to the brim. Crimson shoes as shiny as the rising sun in my bedroom window.

Jellybeans Jellybeans Jellybeans

Dyed Aubergine, short, smooth hair, fitted Indigo Jeans with one lonely pocket, encasing my mobile phone. Jet Black, lifeless shoes as heavy as my heart.

Madopar Madopar Madopar

Scrumpled sticky sweet wrappers; my green scooter with a squeaky wheel; clouds with faces; Care Bares; Stickers and friendly spiders. Are all my favourite things.

Jellybeans Jellybeans Jellybeans

Peppermint tea; laughing so hard my cheeks ache; good doctors; Good medication without side effects; good friends; my ever shrinking mother. Are all my favorite things.

Madopar Madopar Madopar

The dickey dark with its creeping monsters and poltoghosts; being yelled at; edam cheese Sandwiches; mush-tashes; nasty doggies; being smacked so hard that the noise makes my ears Break; Homework so long that it makes my hand feel like it is dropping off. Are all the things I hate.

Jellybeans Jellybeans Jellybeans

The shiver of death upon on my loved ones; My failing body that squeaks, creaks and wobbles as much as my old scooter wheels; Bad medication with sickening side effects; The National Health Service; Distant friends; the words that get discombobulated which I could articulate just months ago. Are all the things I hate.

Madopar Madopar Madopar

The orange and pink speckled glaze. The round curved shape, same as the baby in my mummys tummy. The shine reflects my face like a tiny mirror. In it I can see:

My Cheshire cat grin. My ginger freckles. My lake blue eyes. My licking lips. The taste of a jellybean is syrupy and smooth. It makes me happy as it pricks my taste buds with sweetness. My mum smiles on, reminds me if I eat too many all my teeth will fall out. The tooth fairy doesnt come to kids whose teeth are caked with sugar.

Jellybeans Jellybeans Jellybeans

The dreary grey and crude cobalt blue. The bullet shaped capsule reminding me of civilian war. The glaze reflects my face like a sharp shard of a smashed mirror: It shows me my grey complexion. The suitcases under my eyes. My Mona Lisa half smile. The taste of a Madopar capsule is sharp, bitter, like a lemon without zing. It clings to my tongue needing to be ripped off like a week old elastoplast before I can gulp it down

Madopar Madopar Madopar

I both despise and adore this chemical lulling on my tongue. It reminds me how I will soon be free to move. Yet! It also reminds me of my fragility. Dependent on a singular pill to be almost Independent.

How I yearn to be five years old again. How I crave the shiny oval shaped pod to be a jellybean, not Madopar.












I Wish
by Amanda














I Wish



I wish that you could crawl in my bed, in the middle of the night, I'd wrap my arms around you and make you feel alright

~ ~ ~

I wish that you would tell me to scare that monster under your bed.

~ ~ ~

I wish that I could laugh at the funny things you said

~ ~ ~

I wish Christmas excited you now its a dreaded day


~ ~ ~



~ ~ ~

I wish I could walk you down the street and people wouldn't turn their heads away

~ ~ ~

I wish you had friends at school to come home and tell me about

~ ~ ~

I wish you could eat your birthday cake and pick your own theme out

~ ~ ~

I wish you could explore the house and get into things your not suppose to


~ ~ ~

I wish I could hear you tell me once, Mommy I love you.

~ ~ ~

I wish that I could dress you up for halloween, I would make you the coolest superhero the world has ever seen

~ ~ ~

I wish we could listen to music as loud as it can be, I'd watch you dance and move your legs you'd do it so easily

~ ~ ~

I wish that we could go shopping, I'd let you have anything at all

~ ~ ~

I wish you could hold your head up, because I heard to never let it fall

~ ~ ~

I wish for many things, that some people will never see. I love you for who you are. You are my angel, how much more perfect could you be?

~ ~ ~

Dystonia Is
by Unknown















Dystonia Is

Dystonia is
a neurological condition

Nothing can stop it
unless it is in remission

Not degenerative progressive

One has to give
and to give

It takes times entirety
for a sufferer to live

No modifications
no change to ones home

Muscles just pull and push

We have this alone

My comfort,
my independence
is paramount

Please,
I have a disorder;
not a disease



Ask me,

I will tell you

Let your curiosity cower

The look on your face;

Why does it sower?












Frustrated Neck
by Brent














Frustrated Neck
by Brent

Frustration that I can't dispell. God helps me a little or a lot? - oh well !!! YOU! try and live life to it's full with the twitching-tightening rule.

I'll get over it when it's gone. I'll stop all complaining when the madness ceaces to exist! So deal with this! I always miss out on the brand new dawn where everybody's playing

I get what you are saying,"try and think on good things" And I get it when you react to my constant whine. It might be all the time I see you about every kind of messed up issue.

And I'm trying to get by. Yes I'm trying to get by. Someone find the cure for me. No one knows the mental agony!!!!!!!

Oh God, Creator of my health, when you had me in mind. I wait for more escape ... yes I've been worse, but still I'm not so fine

Please tell me, does everybody suffer the same or do you let some get tortured a lot and suffer much more pain?

If so, please tell me why? It's a torment that can't be silenced when the tightening is in effect, so it's really hard to think on good stuff when my brain's flash'n red lights to reject the overload of all the senses. Concentration misses out ~

Turn Away, just Turn Away. I'm suffering from too much stuff poured in. Turn Away, just Turn Away. but thats not helping! TURN MORE!!! TURN MORE!!! TURN MORE!!!!

Hey Brent, stop all this negative thinking. "I'm trying too!!!" Hey Brent just don't think about it. It's hold on the mind gets strong. Keeps screem'n 'something's wrong! or is it a road of overload I'm on?

I know I'm going to heaven because Jesus forgave me for bad stuff. That keeps me walk'n onward down this way that seems so sad and rough.

Thank God. It could be worse but lately it's gotten less better than it use to be, and I want to see it just go away forever.























My Passion
By Kathie Stehr


















My Passion

Poetry requires intensity
I need to bring the burdens
of my heart to my fingertips
and write

But my fingertips freeze,
the teardrops stop in my throat,
they never travel to my eyes
and spill on the page

Dystonia is the thief,
IT robs me

Passion requires intensity
Intensity means feeling
Deep feeling brings dystonia,
the thief, in to steal

IT makes the voice weak
IT makes the head
pull and shake
The body draws up,
thoughts are forgotten,
buried under the pain.

Is it any wonder that we,
the victums of dystonia
find difficulty in expressing
what we need to the most;
Feelings of love,
sadness,
fear,
joy,
LIFE






Have you hugged
your Dystonian today ???





















Dystonia Awareness is Weak
by James Gallagher (AU)2006















Dystonia awareness lies in what Dystonia is

Support and knowledge in the essence of normality that you give

Task specific, early onset, are there others just like me?

Blepharospasm is a Dystonia, sometimes I cannot see

Dysphonia is of ones voice, it can affect the vocal chords. My voice may speak in a gasping whisper. I am not breathless, that’s absurd

Cervical Dystonia affects posture, movement in the neck. My head tilts forward, back or leans left or right

A normal response is not; “Oh heck”

“A Focal Clonic Tonic Anti Retrocollis”, is not normal, though possible it may be

Be aware about Dystonia, as you may be or perhaps just know one of the 10,000 undiagnosed

May life treat you with care and dignity

~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Here's my thing; In an effort to keep my eyes open, I am trying to open the eyes of others, not only with my "Dystonia Awareness" Mission by "Putting A Face On Dystonia",but to the dangers of Perfumes and other smell good products as well. More specificly, the effects they have on the human body, Your body and every other body whose paths You cross, specially those of us who suffer from MCS. The world can not change, what the world does not know. Still the same, the world must be willing to change ... once it does know.
