In return, you hand me shirts...

HEROES

Near somber guards, units of children heap 
dead leaves, naive to any else fallen.
Friend, you chuckle, but your posture speaks
of duty on this day of contradictions.

Firefighters bow heads in silent paean, 
while polished trucks stand...

I was speaking with my good friend
Donald John
the Evangelist for AntiChrist
the other day.

And I had to ask,

Remains the pain within the dark
A song so soft of love and heart
Yet, holes this deep leave their mark
Like life's sorrowed canvas art

What are we going to do,
I look at you ,
And you look at me,
Simultaneously we 
Say, we have 6 days free

by John Keats

If by dull rhymes our English must be chained,
And, like Andromeda, the Sonnet sweet
Fettered, in spite of painéd loveliness;
Let us find out, if we must be constrained,

They were scruffy and ripped at the seams
He looked like a wiener

I never loved you.
I loved, when we
sang songs at the
tired nights.
I loved, when you
smile to the flower,
I loved when you
look alike a rose.

I never loved you;

I will wear pink and red together
Just because they don’t match
I will dye my hair black

But because I know I’m not a blonde...

Who cares about table manners? Why do you have to have any?
I think being mannerless makes you a better person than many.
Why can’t you hold your fork in the other hand?
And bang your spoon on...

As I set off on my fresh new start
A woman of the age of nineteen
Leaving her family for this American dream
With just this napkin and worn out ink

I was shocked at her announcement
For she was wonderful at teaching English.

No-one knows precisely when the rivalry began; 
thirty-two the legend goes; eighteen or nineteen?
It's not clear, nor can it be confirmed.
