Traumatic brain injury
traumatic headaches
intense frontal pain
temples are numb
quietly sends painful
signals throughout
my brain sometimes
my mind searches
for respites as the
pain swelling reaches
my optic nerve
radiating across my
skull thinking itch
my bones feel like
they are biting my brain
the muscles tense up
throbbing breaking
down my mood funny
I can’t focus so I breathe
pray this pain goes away

A Romios Midsummer’s Dream
In any weather, whether it be sun-kissed
or intensely stormy.
Is to find residence and warmth in the
incandescent,arms of her loving honey!
His olive-skinned arms encircled her,
like stippled, gold, giant butterfly wings.
His citrusy, warm breath, Mon Dieu,
makes her body both shudder and sing!
In his forever, velvet, house she chooses
to abide.
Listening to his Hellenic heart beat, as
strong as the Aegean Sea's tides.
Nothing in this merciless world does she
desire with her soul, more than this.
Her butterfly winged, home and a forevermore
Greek lastling, delicious kiss!

Chats in the Car
We never drive far
May be over the mountains
As the wheels meet the tar
And the bugs find their end
Round each terminal bend
Yet no fly in the ointment with
Conversational friend
We steer around obstacles
We navigate bumps
The pot-hole conundrums,
Of love, never stumps
We won't get a ticket
For our speeding or risks
No concerns with this friendship
From detectors or frisks
I could drive through the night
With you here by my side
It's a wonderful journey
Such a comforting ride
Don't know if we'll arrive
Or the point of it all
But I just count you as blessing
Whether top speed or crawl
For the moments, so fleeting
Are too precious to waste
If we have to conclude this
Let's not get there in haste

Are you reading me
Great
thus
mine eyne
you see not
Not important
it's mine think y'all see
If mine thought asks yours
do you see what i'm saying
now your think iz
by mine think
being tickled
Mine engram may spill
plenty
for yourn please
yet by far
mine think
holdz the trophy
for creative spill
past mine
digits
*i prefer most; "mine think" vs writing

Maybe a prayer counts as a poem, at least I tried to make it as poetic as possible.
Lord today as I bow my head and pray
I ask you to send your warrior angels for her,
and ask that you expel the demons
that gate keep her frontal lobe.
Send your strongest angel as the guardian
of her heart, her mind and soul.
Lord today I ask you to put in place
ushers of peace, love and understanding
in the wake of her heart.
Also Lord fire the darkness of doubt
and hire the light of the renewed mind and spirit.
Amen!

With a mind sharp as a marble
Words roll off my tongue as garble.
My clean shaved head is like a globe
Serpentine tattooed, lobe to lobe
With yellow, brown and strings of blue
Of understated pastel hues
Waxed smoother than a scratched eight-ball
Like a brain coral, all in all.
What is outside is not within
Sharp as a marble crown to chin.

Wearing Robe With Ear Ring In Lobe
While Trump was wearing his robe,
Along with long ear ring in left lobe;
Took golden shower,
For over an hour;
Then started preparing for a probe.
