Ello, Gwammy,
Yea, saw the wain, Gwammy,
Big dwops fallin’ on the soil.
Dwopped fwom clouds.

Aunt Jan was angwy.
Said I get wet.
But I took her bwolly,
The one with the paint on it.
Big bwolly so I no get wet.
Went on the bench to see better.
The soil got wet.

Aunt Jan called me,
But I want to see the gwass gwo.
The wain...

Phantom Phone Call

All Hallows Eve quickly approaches
With tales of crypts and ghostly coaches
When haunting spirits again roam
To sounds of chains and dirges of moans.

Amid this eerie spine-chilling time
Beloved mother prepares to die
Fragile link between Heaven and earth
Suddenly splits in her rebirth.

One final breath, one final sigh,
One final smile from her blue eyes
Now at midnight her...

When feeling lost, you know what to do

The heavenly stars 
warmly wink, like my eyes
to guide you

On the road you’ve taken, I let leaves tango 
with the wind, so you’ll perceive my presence

And, the cicadas chant 
with the river of hope. Their song’s my voice
to give comfort 

Hey, the stars want you to look at...

Ring ring I called to Jesus
He picked the phone and called my name
I have some questions I said
go ahead and ask, he said.

Why isn’t Christmas celebrated everyday?
Why can’t I get presents as often as possible?
Why did you choose December for such moment of bliss?

He answered with a gentle smile.
I have made you the never fading...

Talked all day on the phone,

There was a girl named Caledonia
Who would often state, I will phone ya
She met a man called Fred
Who did ring her instead
And she simply said, guess I owe ya

Phone rings
I will miss you, will you miss me?
No
No? But I may never see you again
(Feelings too young to understand
My ears grew hot
My face grew hot
My stomach twists
Frustration? Guilt? Probably guilt
I think it was guilt
No. Fear. Most likely fear)
I will miss you
Lies
You are a liar.
You are a liar, Father
You are a liar.
And now I am...

You called to share you miss your family.
Crying, you choked that you wanna come home,
want home to be more than just fantasy
and wish to end your long bi-polar roam.
I know you’ve no address or even comb,
so, say, are your words styrofoam or chrome?

Brother, you’ve pressed my sibling love button,
so well-worn from emotional pressing.
I am not...

“Sir, Sir, why are you smiling, so happy and glad,
If you do not mind to answer my simple query,
Please teach me how to be urbane and merry,
I am so tired to be labeled as gauche or mad:
It is so scary to look at the moon and feel sad!
The days are so long and the nights...

If things aren't going well,
You know I'm there for you.
Need not to even ask.
A short phone call and I'm
Friend equal to the task.

I'm waiting just to go
Sailing away with you.,
Right into pleasant sea,
Behind you all the way
Like a good friend should be.

A time-out surely will
Bridge over your woes and
Over all sad memories.
Troubled no more, you're...

The dreadful phone call came, “we have bad news”.
Somehow I already knew, but the words screamed in my mind.
“You have cancer”, and an aggressive kind.
For the first time, I yelled at God, threw things across a porch.
I had been through too much trauma as it was, from earlier years.
They had just removed a tumor, now...

“Roses Are Red Violets Are Blue, I Thought You Loved Me, But I Guess Thats Not True”

We had a fight one day-and then you were gone 
It’s your natural instinct to just go and run
You didn't come back for 90 days
And when you did our lives were changed 
We both had been dumb and got...
