Awkward
I could see him awkward, As he tried to walk her space, Give suggestions And results. After all it had always been her home, Even she did get confused on drawers, And cupboards sometimes. Imagine then him: Yet! I could see him… Useless! Out of touch! Claim to know something he had never touched…...

Knowing when not to do nothing can be awkward
Picture this, It is a beautiful Summers' day, And you don't want to waste the day, Yet there are things to do inside that could spoil your day, That won't go away, Which needed your attention the day before yesterday, You pour yourself another cup of coffee, for your decision to delay, Washing your cup brings another delay, You...

Yet another awkward thing about being human to address
On the one hand we are told not to blow our own trumpet and be humble, One the other hand we we must express Love for ourselves, And through the worlds not stumble, Or our lives will get lost in the concrete jungle. So how do Love ourselves less without getting into a tangle, Or Love...

Another awkward thing about being human
Who to blame, And when to blame them, Awkward. Should we take all the blame, As recommended by counselors who are lame, Or should we live by the Maxam that it takes 2 to tango, and only take half the blame. Not keen on politicians or CEO's who never take the blame, Some hold the never seen by anyone sober,...

The awkward thing about being human
Feeling balanced, In a world that always seems unbalanced, Is awkward when you want others not to feel unbalanced, When you are expressing feelings that to them may seem unbalanced, Yet to stay balanced, You feel the need to express theses feeling or risk becoming unbalanced. I guess on balance, For the sake of feeling balanced You need to do whatever makes...

I haven’t heard from you in a few days My heart is certainly ablaze And you’re probably acrazed Somewhere. My gosh, you haven’t changed your ways My friend, frankly, I continue to be amazed By the gawkiness of your recent stays. It is blue moon again Father Earth is moving like a fleeing felon Who wishes to find a haven Anywhere. Bad habits control old folks And...

so after it landed something grey walked out of it down a ramp that looked like it couldn't have been part of the ship moments ago they appeared familiar with where they stood blue bottle eyes scanning old friends from millennia ago I think he was trying to put one of his three fingers on what had changed, passing clouds smirking as they drifted by,...

The Awkward Phase, Part Ii
...And to the children reading this who feel they don’t know ‘who they are,’ this is nothing unusual, life leaves everyone with some scars. Nobody knows what they’ll become when you’re muddling through their teens, you brain is changing rapidly, your troubles are not what they seem. In five years you won’t recognize the person that you are right now, the things that you think...

The Awkward Phase, Part I
It’s become so self-destructive, the weakness of our modern times, to the point it takes our children, pollutes unformed, unready minds. Now this was always a real risk, but it seems in the decades past, when young adults did something dumb we’d quickly act to correct that, not fear our children’s reaction, when we did our duty to say: You are not ‘trans,’ you’re probably...

The Often Awkward Nature of a Kiss
You will just have to teach yourself one poor female victim at a time for kissing is a dangerous occupation for adolescents and virgins. Angles and shapes have to be factored in at lightning speed before the plunge is undertaken. The neck must be adjusted to height and the trajectory of the pursed lips meet as a natural occurrence like two butterfly wings brushing each other...

Awkward, Awkward
I guess, one thing everyone wanna escape are those awkward and embarrassing moments. Such as an unreturned high five. Or saying good evening instead of good morning accidentally. Or when a friend leaves you with a friend of his. Or shouting in a public place unintentionally grabbing all the attention. Or burping loudly in a quiet place. Or accidentally mistooking a...

I walked toward a man in the airport. It was crowded. Just in front of me, he levitated 6” off the ground. And yipped. He made a perfect landing and continued on his way. I tried to divert my eyes. “Man, that must have been awkward for him,” I thought. I walked toward a man in the airport. It was crowded. Just in front of...

“I’m accepted!!” she squealed. “I knew you would be,” he said, almost sadly. She went giddy with tenderness and threw her arms around his neck to kiss him on the cheek but he’s so tall she had to go up on her toes and ended up off balance, he moved his head into her motion and their...

Awkward Takes
Somedays I rise not wakeup, clear the clutter for sake of, preaching the so-called notion, and giving scruffiness a remotion, for what they say and not what I feel, is true only in the world which is reel. So afraid to be alone or with a lot of either, with a bunch of millennials, I talk about space and ether, Kind of person...
