Break the Silence
Don’t be fooled by me.
Don’t be fooled by the face I wear
for I wear a mask, a thousand masks,
masks that I’m afraid to take off,
and none of them is me.

Pretending is an art that’s second...

The little bird wants to fly high 
In the midst of the wonderful sky
We keep them in the prison

The Day I Fed a Homeless Man
I walked by a homeless man on the street,
you know the one who had no food to eat-
He gasped for air just for change or bottles to collect,
when the passerby walked on and did neglect,
raggedy...

Eight Years of Sobriety
Eight years since I picked up a drink,
rock bottom hit me
           as hard as a wall-
I’ve had ninety-six months to reflect and think,
but before you...

I've grown rusty and unused to summoning words from a blank page - but FINALLY - there's something new to describe. School (11th grade) is over - at last - and... more.

Soldier
I saw a burial with a bugler playing taps;
I turned to my father, “what happened?” I asked.
He clutched my hand and with a quiver in his voice,
he began to explain and his eyes became moist.

1.Fill me up, I am always lacking.
Consumption, the name of the game.
The hunger devours the horse,

Just An Old Attic
As we ransack Grandma's jumbled attic 
in her  blatant old house,
numerous ladybugs and even a mouse 
snared in yellow dust, layered thick.

A rusty dress form displays only a hat
and a distant wall sports a...

It's Not All Bad
Qualities and virtues.
Qualities and virtues of my own.
To be honest I don’t think that much of myself;
Some people seem to differ.

Nervous Breakdown
Heres comes the nervous breakdown,
quick depression into slow anxiety.
Heres comes the nervous breakdown,
swallowing pity of yourself.
Heres comes the nervous breakdown,
cold heat shaking your bones.
Heres comes the nervous breakdown,
aching brain, twitching veins.
It's the nervous breakdown
with explosive...

Premium Member Warmongers
Generations of warmongers spew their lies
outward into the waiting abyss of greed
as the adult throng of drones 
buzz the factories and the farmlands, 
carpenter ants wasting the bounty of mother earth.

And we ..children of the...

My, How Buttons Have Changed
In the fifties, my sister and I would play store;
selling ice cream and candy just like our grandpaw.
Granny let us delve into her spare button box
where we found the coins for our special cash drawer.

Rage Personified
The rage I feel now is boiling inside, pressure in my head

I have never liked this feeling when I’ve felt it before, too close to being dead

I am tormented between jealousy and guilt, not sure...

Ache
For about a million mile time
this heart that ache
A broken some year back
Enemy men
flirty women
would tease and ridicule
and call me some rude 
to get this egg to finally crack

The pain of being lonely boy

There is no match for the little things 
Honest to God
Nothing can bring me more joy 
Than those little things 

A whiff of a scent I knew years ago
Just for a second

return to winnie the pooh, 
cinderella, hide and go seek 
at dusk screaming, giggling  
beneath the sun’s ruddy demise
 
Marshall, laying in the ditch.
 out of sight I run right over...
