Best Happening Poems

This morning I am glued to my TV,
for something has happened in DC!
I’m scratching my head.
Am I dreaming still in bed?
They are PRAISING the President on NBC!

It's happening again..

Drops of mercy descending

What happens to our young
that makes them crave the pain? 
How could they feel so helpless
that it drives them near insane? 

So many young are cutters.

she had enough curiosity to kill a thousand cats but not about sex

she awoke to him on top of her AGAIN then a quick blow to the head

she had been stricken temporarily dumb

suddenly she had a sharp penetrating eruption of rage and hatred and alien...

across my mind
..float..
..then
   settle

when they want attention 
my phone beeps at me
my car beeps at me 
my watch beeps at me 
my door bell now beeps at me
what is happening 
in this beeping 
technological world....
