felt toward her “Willies” –

They thought they’d take the creatures to their homes across the sea

Took a breath
Of your death
Upon my tongue…
Burnt a lung…
In the process
Of my hopeless state
I’m making progress
As of late, as of late

So young and awkwardly long
I can’t believe I don’t belong
So wrong, it feels right all...

We MUST gain eternal freedom & experience 
The attitude...

Alfie was the first son of a billionaire
Who bought a golden cradle for his son and heir
There was no expense that daddy wouldn’t spare
And perforated ping pong balls didn’t feature there

On Alfie’s one year birthday...

A father with one daughter and two sons;
a mother with four daughters of her own -
They came together years ago and bought
what would become my fondest childhood home.

we need a new one,
one that doesn't burp,
grind and scream ---
and kill;
One that doesn't worship money...

with cold, long hands
and call it: victory ---

than people:

While merrily bobbing along
the boulevard of broken dreams,
which in truth measured
no more than a furlong

For now he’s old and very slow,
And he only wears one shoe.

Birdman was his name,
But now he can...

As long as you heal again
I know I did you wrong

When one snaps, we chuckle.
When someone can’t use them properly,
we giggle.
When someone eats with them,
we ridicule.

Chopsticks are an icon of...

And munched all the crisps like the ones on the telly
