Long Maybes Poems

My people love marching!
Attending rain dancing parades,
doing a bunch of fire-breathing talking
Little drummer boys and girls
playing foot soldier pretend grown up
Just defending the truth,
those marionette walkers will yell at you
in designer protest fashion
Motion activate the...

Ready set go, pick yourself up off of that floor
Because you probably drank to much the night before
You have an alcohol problem you can't ignore

Put your pants on one leg at a time 
Now make...

my boots were clicking on the floor,
I could hear the laugh of a broken lift
as I wheezed, pulling back the door.

But what was this? Some giant mess,
the hall was filled...

No ifs ands or maybes
Daily
I'm seeing hatred
People still extremely racist
Meanwhile food and materials being wasted

I understand the messages these mummies meant
Continually money spent
Making matters worse, followed by a bloody event

Too often the crooked win
Always greedy...

Breathing, looking, feeling and walking
 Deciding, choosing, living and talking
 Just like a developing child; an adolescent learning
 Just like an endless beginning a genuine yearning 

Independent, supported or alone
 Beg, borrow, or maybe one...

When the sunlight dies
and it’s time for the moon to rise,
a Pegasus, trots over the grey skies
witnessing your enchanting tired eyes
he knows,
he knows your wings are weak
and your dreams are too big,
making his eyes go...

“Maybe” the doctor said 
to the bald girl laying in bed
Her eyes widened in surprise
“Maybe yes?” she sighs
The doctor has already left the room
So the girl is alone to assume

The small boy asks “ice cream...

I won’t be held captive 
You have only single moments
When you’re worth a damn smile

Spread the feel good
Cause you seem to think you’re desired
But it’s funny cause you’re a lie

Deliver the what ifs
Hold onto your...

I am November, the chilling winds
blend with the conditions in my heart
My heart blends with 13 years of not
blending to the conditions very well

I am December, the morning shares
the same blackness as the nights
To which...

What we take
without asking first,
thanking second,
what is rightfully our property,
our valuables,
our commodities and loves
displayed across borrowed time
and limited grace space.

Yet I also take
what I am too ashamed to ask for,
then thank
for receiving selfless hand to...

Inspired by the spaces in time that I can't remember
Filling them with maybes and dreams
wishing they were clearer
Finding myself sad
Writing about memories of a distant past
My past must have been a reflection of downcast

Erased memories...
