Did you know that the Heartbreak Hotel has only 4 floors and I had to spend the night in the stairwell after being kicked out on the street for not having shoes on.

Is this really a Graceland?

Are we living in America when you can get mugged on the front lawn of Graceland after a 2000 mile journey to see the King's House.

Hey Lisa...do you have screen name....I keep getting e-mails from the LMP forum

Do you know that I got to the front lawn of Graceland, was tackled and bloodied and I never got to see the Junkle Room. However I did get to see the TCB plane and the LISA MARIE but I was barefoot and they wouldn't let me in to see the cockpit.

Oh yea....Where the hell is the Chappel in the Woods?

Hey Groupees,

Check out this new poem and click on my website below to find some more poetry.

ISN’T IT TIME?


If man…and I mean that in such a way as to include woman…is to attain what our maker intended us to be, we all must have in our possession or are able to comprehend the “magical” power…I should say goodness…that these two very special “tools” are able to give those who attain them. I call these tools, “The Tool of Wisdom and Enlightenment”… and the tool of all tools…”The Tool of Love and Understanding”. For isn’t wisdom the tool that makes Love grow?



Is not love a feeling that grows inside you...? A feeling that becomes so strong, so right, that it leads you back to yourself… A feeling that guides you to your destiny.



Is not love a feeling that changes our lives, our minds, our bodies? Isn’t this the tool that all human beings should possess? Isn’t this the feeling that we are all born with, but somewhere along the way we lose control of?



Isn’t love the feeling that God intended us to attain? Isn’t love the feeling that we should pass on to others…to our children? Isn’t love really the only tool we need to build our houses?



Isn’t love the tool that our maker, our Master Carpenter, gave each and every one of his apprentices so that they may grow? Isn’t love the answer to the question why? Isn’t love a means to a beginning?



Isn’t love the answer to our problems? Isn’t love in the hearts, the minds, and the bodies of all the Carpenter’s apprentices? Doesn’t love have the power to destroy all houses, all walls?



Doesn’t love have the power to make all apprentices work every hour, every week, every day to achieve it? Doesn’t love have the potential to change the life, the mind, the body of those who attain it? Hasn’t it been said so many times, so many ways?



Hasn’t love been with us from the beginning of time? Shouldn’t love be with us to the end of time? Isn’t love the feeling that makes us who we are and what we want to become?



Isn’t love our ultimate goal in life? Isn’t love our ultimate dream? Isn’t it time we all attained this dream or at least try?



Hasn’t enough time passed so that we know what is right and what is wrong? Shouldn’t we at least try to let this feeling grow? Shouldn’t we at least give love a chance to grow before we say that it doesn’t exist?



Weren’t we put on this earth to achieve an ultimate goal? Shouldn’t we all work together to achieve an ultimate goal? Doesn’t it always turn out right when everyone knows in their hearts the ultimate goal that spurns their sweat?



Isn’t love a magical feeling that can only be felt once you have seen through the walls that we ourselves have created? Isn’t love our past, our present, and our future? Shouldn’t we at least try to love before we hate because isn’t hate just a lack of love?



Isn’t it time we let love grow? Isn’t it time we come together? Isn’t it time we let it be? Isn’t it time I held your hand, you held mine? Isn’t it time she loves you? Isn’t it time we all feel fine? Isn’t it time we all come to the end of the long and winding road? Isn’t it time we let the sun in? Isn’t it time that I am he, he is she, she is we and we are all together? Isn’t it time that we can all imagine all the people living life in peace? Isn’t it time we gave peace a chance? It’s only love and that is all. Isn’t it time all you need is love?



For in the end the love you make is equal to the love you take. Let us live as one…let us be as one…let us see as one…ISN”T IT TIME?

hi danny ,you say you were ''mugged'' on the front yard at graceland ,could you elaberate?

EP,

I parked in the Graceland Parking area accross from Graceland and I didn't have any shoes with meso I went to where the Elvis pavillion as and attempted to board the LISA MARIE and TCB planes when a guard came up to me and said that I couldn't stay on that ground in bare feet. I then went inside the pavillion to check out the SIRIUS radios and radio booth where they were broadcasting. I then collected brosures of what to see in and around Memphis. I then asked to buy a VIP tour of the Graceland mansion accross the street. I was looking for the WEDDING CHAPPEL IN THE WOODS. THe guy there ssid the last VIP tour was just sent over to Graceland. He said if I walked over through the open gates I cold catch the last tour.

SO with brosures in hand I walked up to close to the front steps when an African American came at me with rage in his eyes and told me I couln't walk on that land becase the Presley eastate didn't own it all. I said that I was looking for the Chappel in the Woods as a place tha I might want to get married. As the tour buses pulled up, this guy told me tha the Chappel was next door and was owned bt Pricilla and Lisa...he then pushed me to the grass in the front lawn of Graceland and bloodied my leg as the brosures went flying. He sent me to the gard gate and they took my name and license from Pennsylvania and told me I couldn'e enter Graceland and to go nextdoor to check on the Chappel in a house owned by Pricilla....nobody answered so they kicked me out onto ELVIS A.PRESLEY blud. without shoes. I finally got a pair of sneakers in a local discount store and befriended a Vietnam Vet who was also homeless on the street.

It was a crazy experience and I was already in a manic state with my Bi-Polar illness.

I finslly snuck into the Heartbreak Hotel and sleep in the 3rd floor stairwell as my car remained in the Graceland parking lot. I got up the next day and took off to a McDonalds to piss, cleanup,and eat...then I left Memphis and ended up in Kansaa where I was hospitalized for 22 days before my father flyed out the Kansas City then Chicago andfinally Philly.

That is my story...strange but true.

I will add this to my page on my website at www.poetryworld.mysite.com entitled "WELCOME TO LUNA WORLD.

LOVE and HUGS,

Danny
