O Rhyme, How I Express My Joy in Thee
O Rhyme! how I express my joy in thee;
but sorrow drains desire, and grace received,
depriving me of your vivacious sea
of gilded imagery. I deceived,
for happiness and cheer leap from my page:
though melancholy, the womb of all odes,
the false bliss which

Preening For A Distant Gaze
Other Thoughts Entangle Charm;
Ends-Without-The-Means, Indeed!
Trust In Troubled Torrent Tribes...
Raid The Chambers, Raise All Voices!
Yours Is But A Word Away.
I've Got Your Number,
Seen Your Thoughts...
Passions' Preference, Prejudiced Still;
Ran Around The Racetracks, Cheering!
Off! You Feral Cockerel Sewer-Rats!
Onward Ho! Ye Her0es Of Re-Cen'cy!

Gratitude Express
And a routine, a habit not done
A self-care or a part has done
Emphasizes value of the moment
Also has a pleasant aftertaste
A process help notice a result
Embodiment to thank for oneself
A method to cultivate happiness
A journal to write indebtedness
Art for tool to thank for others
An expression to create family.

The happiest part of me!
Slightest glances of your presence,
My heart dances, catching your essence!
The lost feelings that I buried,
I found it, without being worried.
Love is a feeling, I realized!
The happiest part of me Survived.
Exhausting works, tiring days,
"You beside me"- became most comfortable of ways.
Watching you resting, I'm assured!
All my weakness, always get cured.
Treating

I Can't Express Depression
I am in silence
But my heart is not
I try to scream
But it won't let me
I tried to hide
But it won't let me
Confusion inside
It leaves me breathless
I don't know where I am
In silence or in chaos
I don't know what I want
I know I can't survive
I try to speak, words don't come out
I try to express, but

How can I express myself
How can I express myself when every time I do you think I’m arguing. How can I express myself when you don’t listen? How can I express myself when you’re not there? How can I express myself when I don’t trust you? How can I express myself when you don’t love me? How can I

Rabbit Express Cult
I had heard about the new cult in town, the gray rabbit express
It was stated that the followers did not show much happiness
They dressed in gray outfits, dresses usually, and rabbit ears
What is your main concern? I asked the sheriff. What are your fears?
I wonder if these girls were abducted, you need to interview them.

Express Train
Door open,
hurtling loud and at full speed
towards my destination,
beneath me a blur
of mounded ballast
and withered grass,
the world coming into focus more
the further out I look -
graffitied fences, factories
still wearing the soot
of steam trains from decades
before, a mountain of stacked
wooden pallets, car wrecks
piled four high.
Late sixties, on my way
to work on

the anger express
Can old thoughts of hurt that we shun
Cancel life’s gifts wonder and fun?
If anger must stay
Within brain’s array
Do we run with pain in the sun?
To digest bad memory’s lunch
Chop stick therapies help us munch
And chew on old pain
So our bad chow mein
Will taste sweet like a Nestle’s crunch
Although it seems weird and so strange
If

Or maybe its God that heals my spirit? Just Keeps me going on?

To express the pain
There are some who live by lies
Others tell the truth
Some who will be followers
Others will lead in due time
I have endured pain but it made me stronger in life
I have leant to deal adequately with confrontation
I learned to not be confined
Some are intimidated by what they can not control
My father raised me with respect until

how I express my dementophobia fear of insanity
am I crazy then?
I look at the doctor
what could I say to influence his decision?
Would it be better to not say a word?
or better to chatter my heart out?
Insanity looks insane, my soul says in a stern way
my soul sometimes gets irritated with my self-talk
this cannot be normal
right?
The doctor asks if I have any questions.

Free to Express
Imagine the sun shone in rays of red,
sparkling in saffron skies with clouds of bronze.
If it was maroon would you love the moon?
If midnight was beige would you go to bed?
An artist's mind should be free to express.
Use their canvas to show confetti bled.
Ignore those who claim stars are not lilac.
Create pink rain, as orchid
