you say I'm just a housewife
and I don't work as hard as you
you think I live an easy life

      then pick up all your...

She wrote it on his skin, 
and he hoped that
it would sink in.
It was just a phone number,
but he thought of it as coordinates,
that once he left the bar,
the darkness,
he would find something,
something worth leaving for.
He remembered the way she 
smiled as she wrote,
the way...

is it misguided pride 
when in every way
I want you
to take me
possess me
claim what is yours

all the while refusing
to hand myself over
like some cheap prize
at a country fair

everybody plays a game
abiding by the rules
concocted in their head

when do we realize
that some games
have no winners

from sightless eyes, the words were spoken,
of hearts stopped beating, and bones, broken.
a fight broke out that friend nor foe can,
fend off at all, with gold or token.

through-out the night, and day it lingered,
with hearts ceased beating, and bones, splintered.
a fight that felt as cold...

You have no idea about how i feel inside
Rules of this and that damn do I have to abide
I wish all everything could subside
Yelling, screaming, and hollering in my ears
is making them ring
Deaf to listening to the birds sing

She is eleven, depressed.
Yet she has no idea why.
She has mentioned suicide to others,
Not to me though.
She is a crying machine lately.
No one knows why.
I lead her out of the bathroom 
Where she is crouched on the floor, sobbing.
She can never pinpoint why she is...

She had no idea how sultry she was
Thinking as a mother of two, she was average
She was a rare beauty, inside and out.
Her skin was almost as soft as their baby’s skin.

Her husband could barely look away.
She was his undoing, his princess, his goddess.
How had...

Man of la Mancha
Has no idea I am a dragon
He thinks I am a dog
With a tail that is a’wagg’n.

His sidekick Panza knows
But does not give it away.
I love spending time with them.
They know how to laugh and play....

tears burn into my face
stinging my eyes like mace
like removing your heart and putting a bomb in it place
catastrophy takes place without even a body to trace

People keep telling me to let go,
But I CAN'T; you just don't know.
My whole world just seemed to collapse,
Then it all shattered me like glass.
Now I'm dating another guy.
Somebody please tell me why, oh why?
Maybe this is just a trick of the head...
So, who cares?...

She was standing outside her classroom when I arrived
I did not recognize her; I know I have had her class.
But they all wear a different mask every day; I barely recognize any of them.
I ask her for her name.
I am fabricating it due to confidentiality.
Let’s...

I have no idea why I am not a man
I have always wanted to be one
The boys could yell out answers in class
I got slammed to the floor for yelling them out

I despise things women are supposed to like.
Cleaning, cooking, dusting, moping, vacuuming
I will not...

Camouflage me quickly the fowl yelled as he landed.
Did not know who he was, but we ran out with paints - blue and red.
Can we colorize your feathers asked our leader, Mrs. Banded.
Do what you must to keep me away from the broiler, he said.
What...

I had an idea for a poem
You must trust me - it was great.
I would love to share it with you,
But it left on an outbound freight....
