Reflection On An Aging NomadI finally finished retiring four years ago,
a process that started in my mid-fifties
due to late adopting kids with special needs,
including needs for me to be home
to personally walk them on,

Retarded slightly above,
And big belly does block view of his both feet.

Valentine's DayMy friends have always hated Valentine's Day.
They ridiculed the pimply-faced boys
Whose hormone-infused offerings
Smell of Axe cologne and sweaty palms.
Greater the mocking of pubescent princesses
Who prance and twirl and collect tokens
From admirers like shells on a...

What Is the NectarMost of us can feel,
A disturbing pain of
Negative empotive ache
In some form
In our lives.

Eventually you may be
Annoyed, bored, deppressed
From that disturbing ache.
Than we say:
"Life is painful, boring, bad."
Don't be...

Swallow this pill of reality
Deep down, a bottomless body

Everyday, weighed down
By an upside down frown
Everyday, weighed down
