He sways, the water leaving through the drain with the rest of his will, his strength
He steps past his minds mistress
And crumples onto the...

Deliberately inching its way toward break of day,
The morning sun begins to emblazon the barley field.
Relaxing and watching the orb find its way,
The lady of the house waits for night to yield.
Like every morning, she...

No Judgement Jamie always was told
that judging others was vile and cold,
all her teachers did proudly attest
that living life without judging was best.

And the media reinforced these words,
to judge other people? Hateful! Absurd!

Spanish moss hangs from trees eerily
I step on the gas; the car starts to shake
So I pull over, pressing on the brake

Here in the darkness I am all alone

Labor Pains

An old story has been told,
from which a lesson unfolds

The owner of capital and workers agree.
The wages are clear, and no one works for free

The sand of time slowly drops in the hour glass.
As...

He slept in his car
in a park not to far
from where he lived
homeless, no food
making a way the best he knew
attended college
 a degree or two
nevertheless lost everything
went down the fast hill
until one-day
he was handed...

A Cowboy is lean, tall, muscled and an inarticulate mass
Of loyalty, independence, pride and downright Western class
He cocks his hat to the back of his head and lets loose an infectious grin
Testosterone overflowing he’s masculine...

She hires every jeweler
A cheap sheep crying, Wolf!

Today is a time that is like no other,
For the virtuous wife and bless’ed mother,

While her husband works the ground to yield,
She works beside him in the field.

She is his help, his right hand man,

Pretty Woman

Oh, pretty woman
You have caught my eye
On a business trip
And need a tour guide
With beauty and wit

Week rendezvous
Evening delight
Dining, fine wine, 
Falling in love

We're from two
Different
Worlds dear, but

Say you'll
Stay with 

Me

Hoard healthy highs
End etch enough
Add apt apply
Roam rivers rough
Trendy true tries


Hope hurls healing
Etch earns ending
Art aims asking
Reap real risking
Trust truth tasking


Help hurting hires
Embrace empty
Apt art aspires
Relieve rowdy
Toilsome touch tires


Hoist heavy hounds
End each explore
Art airs astound

Home from the sea

he is walking into the town, 
new trousers and jacket
bought in America, shiny shoes.
He smiles to the girls who smile back
he has money
in his pocket home from the sea.
He has many friends...
