The tears I still shed over him
Are blocking my sunrise view
A f*cking monster of emotions
I must process to get through
A soul I once respected
Suddenly becomes one I fear
Missing someone is just love
With nowhere else to appear
Perhaps the love was real
But the shame was louder
Fear doesn’t hold responsibility
For emotions to ponder
Yet my hope doesn’t disappear
Simply because I tell it to
The weight of this accountability
Is not mine since I quietly grew
God damn it. He has turned me
Into a f*cking avoidant
I stopped trusting how I feel
and empathy becomes intermittent
All of these conversations
I will never have
There is nothing left to say
Will reply asap...
Original Nursery Rhyme:
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
My Rhyme:
Listen, listen, little dream
How I cry and how I scream!
In my heart, your muse stirs,
Promising my hope is yours.
Listen, listen, little dream
How I cry and how I scream!
Please allow my wishes to become reality,
The moment you hear this rhyme, ASAP!
A.S.A.P.

The acronym ASAP always implies at warp speed,
Remember, once your problem has been paid heed.
Your Problem doesn’t make it another’s Emergency,
So others may not treat your request with like urgency.
And because it didn’t garner your expected response,
Don’t take thoughtful reactions as being nonchalance.

A mediocre mealworm was sat on a hill eating a sandwich and drinking some tea when along came an elongated machine with a red face and elastic eel ears which pinged and ponged. The mealworm was confused. Surely not here he thought. It only occurs elsewhere. But elsewhere is neither even, exact or existential. It is to be said that the tunnel the meal worm then dug spread out under ground for several acres. No screws were needed. Just dig dig dig. In fog in sun in snow in hail basically all weathers. Now safe to sip homemade barcadi which had steeped in preparation for this day. Turboprop opera drowned out the booming from above. And the little dove sang sweetly as he supped his well deserved beverage. Feral fragrance frankly feels funnily fished. And after such a hard days work of sitting on that hill the mealworm could laugh and laugh at the chaos above safe in his chambers and surrounded by female earthworms in their bikinis. No ha no x and no z. Representational
Instantly Right Now

I think individuals should put ASAP
Up their A#%--!! Right Now…
I need some ideas,
for a leadership poem.
It is for school,
a honor presentation
Please leave some comments,
with something
That could possibly spark,
my writer block imagination.
Gardening in a dress
Figured it would be nice and breezy
A red wasp had his way with my back side easy
One little wasp caused alot of mess
Ten stings/bites caused me alot of ouchy
Then itching beyond control of sensitivity
A.S.A.P., holds a special meaning to me in these latter years,
It’s a way I have of coping with life’s trials and all its fears.
So when life starts to really drag you down and feels so unfair.
Remember to stop and; (Always Say a Prayer), (A.S.A.P.).
It’s a way I have to release my feelings, the way I get to vent,
And when I see that I was wrong, it’s a way in which I can repent.
The good thing I’ve learned is it doesn’t matter what time or even where,
He is always there to listen, so Always Say a Prayer,(A.S.A.P.).
God knows our heart and knows our mind,
But it is up to us to seek Him and all His glories we will find.
His heavenly kingdom He wishes to share,
If we seek Him out in faith and Always Say a Prayer.(A.S.A.P.).
So friend when it is all said and done,
And you know on that last day you have finally won.
It was on that cross the worlds burdens He did bear,
And all He wants from us is to Always Say a Prayer.(A.S.A.P.).
