Trying desperately to greet every new person I should meet
My demeanor screams of defeat
Just not the best person in this world to meet
But if...

In Church today at the dawn of morning light,
she sat in front of me
hunching over just a little to my right.
Pale, frail, mottled unfolded hands,
with hint of...

Male - female, plus - minus, north - south, captain and crewman

The Spirit Realm
Glimpses into the future:

To tailor every choice you buy
To that which each recipient
Would like and doesn’t cost a mint.
Some options jump out in a flash
While others cause your teeth to gnash

Sonnet For Her

how long our marriage has lasted, I replied

Shrinks Beware Karma
I
here lie the remains of savior-imposters
lots of canned answers from textbooks
