Today again, I went to go teach, totally unprepared. And fearing the principal would come observe me had me so scared, I rambled through the room, floundering and fluttering. And then a student asked, "Mr J, why are you muttering? Do I sense maybe ~ you're just a little bit impaired?"...

The Bad Dream
An ailing scent in the aura, Murky sky wherever I look, Muddle visuals by my side, Like my whole destiny shook. Enormous croak in society, Laying me in great baffle, Strange eye of crowd at me, As they were in a great shuffle. I bid to peek into other scenes, But no sight of creature in my eyes, Just a sorrow uproar of mankind, Similar to...

Sunny, sultry afternoon; a playing breeze tosses my hair. Eyes...I feel eyes and glance upwards; By the water well, the Grim Reaper and he is filling the well from a large vessel with, his eyes on me. Setting down the vessel, a bony protrusion waving towards me, slowly, ever so slowly…come, it beckons. NO! I won’t; I know you. Come,...

A Bad Dream
A bad dream There was a dreamer boy who dreams a lot and does nothing. He plays also when the boy had a pre examine, When he entered the pre examine, he failed. He sang As this I dream to be a butterfly Go every where and fly See beautiful colors at my eye Smell good odor thing in the weather See smart...

A Bad Dream
A BAD DREAM Dr. Jim Martin I tossed and turned throughout the night, And with my pillow had a terrific fight. I wondered if I would ever be all right, And hoped for morning with all my might. Was it something that I did eat? It must have been quite a feat! A good night’s sleep it did defeat, I hope that this I...

A Bad Dream
Dangerous dreams flood over me in darkness and the weight of them drowns me like a tidal wave sinking me into my mattress and spiraling me through the rabbit hole on the other side to somewhere on sixth street forcing me into an open bar where smoke rings create halos and whiskey is the new smell of Christmas...

Another Bad Dream

It Feels Like a Bad Dream
It feels, like a bad dream that I had when I was young. No one, cares or believes. "It's the past. Let it be done." I hear the beasts in the closet calling out my name. I'll be safe under covers, but I'll never be the same. No, I'll never be the same.   Nightmares begin and end here in...
