My son's guitar

To play a guitar is one thing I always yearned 
On a day like any other I finally decided to learn. 
My Son's Guitar is made for a child, small in stature.
I strum the strings, an out of tune melody is what my ears capture.
Last time I tried I quit, knowing the challenge of acquiring

The Chicken Plucker

Dad ordered a chicken to pluck,
in the end he had some bad luck.
Ready for the task.
He got not as ask,
not a dead chicken, a live duck!

Dear dad,

Dear dad,

Why could you have been like other dads, who play with their kids and not mess with heads at such a young age. You put me in this fake situation that how you were raising me was ideal and the right way, but after years of finally know that’s not true. Me raising you

Why Dad?

Why Dad?

Why did you have to go

Why did you leave me

Why did you pretend something never happened 

Why did you put me in this situation 

Why did you yell at me

Why did you tell me you still loved my mom

Why did you leave me with trauma 

Why did you lie to me

Why did you overdose

Seed in a Plantation

One of many, yet set apart,
A seed without its tree.
Still, the roots take hold,
Still, the branches reach.

One in four, rising strong,
To lift the old tree from its sorrow.
One in four, breaking through clouds,
Carrying the light he once followed.

In hope that one becomes all,
And all become four,
So his dream, even in silence,
Will never die.

Great Dog-Demon

I surpassed father
though the path was treacherous
and filled with mirrors

Inevitable Procession

If you were to ask me
Be the one to catch me, before i take the fall
You'd be the only one waiting, afterall
For whence i open my mouth and
Spill a sea of pills tinged with reddened liquor 
I think you'd listen, then
If i took advice from any voice, it'd say 'give up'
But then again the only

Dad

Even though fathers might all seem similar in some ways
They are actually all different as are cats and bears
Or even pirates and trees regardless of hidden fees

When working in the woods
Dad was a bear and a force to be reckoned with
But like a famous man, “he preferred it nice and peaceful”

 He liked to be

Go Fish The Big One

Remember as a child playing cards,
Go Fish?
A child's life and fishing go together,
dreaming about catching the big one.
How big is the big one?
At what age will they catch it?
Will it be from land or from a boat?
Yes a child will dream about the big one,
the big one being on the end of their fishing line.

HIS LAST WORDS

The world, my son
is one big market
people buying, people selling
some winning, some just walking through.

I was once a loud voice in it
Trading dreams, chasing deals
but today, I feel quiet
like the shop is closing.

Lying here, I hear something
a whisper, maybe a name
and I think it’s time
to pack my things.

Son, listen to me
life is trade and timing.
When

I think I'm heartbroken

"Mummy says now that my heart is broken, nothing will ever hurt me as much again" The Poet.

Fir trees along the road, showing the way.
There's a log cabin, for us to stay. 

Daddy built our house by a big fir tree.
A loving place for he, mummy and me.

Mountain country, cozy fires to keep warm,
Wild flowers,

The 12th Anniversary Of Dad's Death

When Dad got Leukemia, he put up a fight.
He took chemo but lost his battle 12 years ago tonight.
After months of taking chemotherapy, he died.
He couldn't beat cancer even though he tried.
He died less than two hours before the fourteenth of July.
He was a good provider and that's something I can't deny.
When a person loses

Dad: Life Well Lived of a Good Man

A good man walks through life with quiet strength, carrying himself with dignity while lifting others along the way. He speaks with honesty even when the truth is difficult, and his word can be trusted completely. You can see his character in small moments—how he treats someone who can do nothing for him, the patience

You can’t say that dad!

They say my dad’s humor is dry,
but after some pints by and by,
he gets lubricated
and jokes unabated
says things make you wish you could die!
