"Conversations with a Daughter: Creeps"
Time creeps
my beautiful, clever, daughter
Weirdos are us
incorporated
There's that beautiful laugh,
that beautiful smile
Who wants to
belong here
they keep you on
the outer edge
that’s cool,
take all the time you require
that time that creeps
and swallows past mistakes
and imperfect perfect
recalcitrant pride and second takes
observe the real dynamics
of all the unobservant peeps
stand tall,
stand strong
embrace the you that's best
at being you, the one that shines
the honest you
that is pure Truth
know you are the best
when you are in your real freak
you worry about
not belonging
to the Popular Girls' Club
strike a line through them
they're just dumb
what is outside the circle
is profound
Blue Ribbon, winning, won
commence constructing
your own legion, your own world
who wants to be the same,
same as the other girls
it's true we all bleed
some are more fierce
battle worn and won
you are unique
take your own path,
my courageous daughter
LEAD,
the ones that see clear through
will walk beside you
unwavering
tall as trees
throw your flame high
daughter, it has real power
to light up a new
much more vibrant world
Collaboration
in a mirror
mother speaks to daughter
daughter speaks to mother
the mother replies
to the same war weary eyes
what is seen by me within you
is so so beautiful,
so totally clever
and unique
What you see in your eyes
the same shade of jade as mine
speaks volumes
in music you have sent me tonight
we are different, but we embrace
the same heart the same rhyme
two very very strong
indomitable lives
A daughter
with special powers
The mind is never broken
The true bond is never severed
BELIEVE
The Victory was always
there within us
The cornucopia remains
overflowing, it will multiply
Believe your mother, daughter
it will thrive
I am always yours
and you are always mine
No matter the distance, or
the different stars in our skies
Collaborating with Love
silently in mind
Confederates hardly noticed
but never ghosts in this Life
never perpetual bland
two dimensional characters
in a sorry saga
page worn pantomime
There are other chapters
that will burn and shine
Unique
Individual
Victory comes to
good hearts in time
Perfectly I see your imperfections
you are my daughter
genetics
bloodlines
I am all yours
and you are all mine
You are human
yet divine
I send love to you
from my heart
Deep within
I've mined
Time creeps
my beautiful, clever, daughter
Weirdos are us
incorporated
There's that beautiful laugh,
that beautiful smile ...
