Dementia's derelict WinLose SocialWorker
suboptimizingly hesitates
when I tell her
I have not changed my mind
about not adopting Fetal Alcohol Syndrome
into my vulnerable home
with a seven-year-old AfricanAmerican boy
blind

We run in the sun today
In the month of May...in the bright, beautiful time of May
We walk in the rays of sunshine

from Late Latin origin, meaning shade.
Predating Mexican type of headwear
that’s commonly presupposed, instead they’re

Therefore the galaxy’s wide-ranging rim,
through pareidolia’s visual drift
causing our human perception...

You're beautiful
I say to my faultless boy
holding him like a mother
my love cleansing all the trouble 
my fingers soft on his baby skin
and smooth forehead

You're beautiful- but you always change

You can't...

I woke out of a deep sleep, disoriented, desiring an explanation.
My heart was beating triple time. Was this a heart attack then?
Don’t be any crazier than...

My mother didn’t cook too well
Although she fed us fine.
Her house was not immaculate,
Much messier than mine.

She swam and bowled and tennised
Really well, by all...

Ever try eating a Soft Taco Supreme
And not appear like a glutton
With stuff squirting out all over yourself

If I could do magic
I'd bring my grandma back
Always very encouraging
Wisdom, she'd never lack

On Christmas Eve, we'd gather together
Just like the rest of some you do
So many laughs, happiness there
You knew grandma's love was true

Midnight...

Most people need to see Magic in technicolor
because they want to see all of the bright creatures
like Brownies and Pixies.

I don't want to see the façades
that Brownies and Pixies
present to the majority of Society.

The colors in my living room make me feel ultra happy.
My best work, four years in, when I was in the throes of painting.
Vibrant neon colors, that I adore…
Pinks yellows greens, oranges, blues.
A playfulness in...
